My iPhone charges when I connect it to my PC but does not appear to be there

My iPhone charges when I connect it to my PC but does not appear to be there, Help?!

Added (1). Edit

my iphone charges normally, but then when I open "my computer" to open my iPhone and see it's contents, there's no icon for it, it's like its not even there!
at the same time iTunes keeps saying it couldnt connect to iPhone cause the device has timed out
what can I do to fix this?

Windows often refuses to recognize Apple devices. It says my iPod is "defective" and offers to scan it and fix it lol. It shows up in windows 8.1 but it's like there's nothing in it.

It works perfectly in my iMac. Lol.

  • Why can't my desktop connect to our Wi-Fi at home but does connect to moble hotspot? Suddenly my desktop won't connect to our Wi-Fi. All other devices such as laptops, phones and tablets connects just fine. I tried connecting it to my iphone's hotspot and it works. I tried to unistall and reinstall the wireless adapter but still won't work. I also tried to reboot the router and even tried to change the channel but still failed to make it work. Do you have any other way to make it work? I have windows 7 on my desktop.

  • Iphone 5 won't connect to computer at all but charges when using wall charger? I've just got an iphone 5, when connecting it to the computer nothing seems to happen - the phone doesn't charge and the computer or itunes doesn't recognise it. When using the same cable with the wall charger it charges… What can i do? I can't go to Apple as i don't have a receipt?
