My iphone won't connect to the laptop?

When i connect my phone to the laptop it won't recognise it? The phone is charging but its not connecting? I've tried shutting both laptop and the phone off i tried changing the usb ports and i went into control panel to see if it is unspecified but its not there either? Does anyone know what's wrong with it? :L

I was in the exact same boat as you just a few weeks ago! My advise to you is to use another PC if you have one. That worked for me. If that doesn't work then try uninstall and re-installing apple iTunes. You mentioned that the iPhone is charging so it's definitely the computer with the problem.

  • Why won't my Iphone 4s connect to my new HP laptop? I just bought my laptop about 2 days ago and i downloaded itunes. As soon as i plugged in my iphone, a background noise popped up, and nothing happened. So i opened itunes and it would not show my iphone. Also in my computer, it did not register it either. PS: i know its not a faulty cord, because i tried 3 different ones, and every time i plug it in or unplug it makes that background noise.
  • Why won't my iphone 4 connect by usb on my laptop? I have a toshiba satellite laptop on windows 8, I've tried to connect my iphone up to my laptop so that I can connect it to iTunes but every time I try to connect it up it connects for a second gets to the charging screen for a second and disconnects again and does that over and over again. So it basically just will not connect properly to my laptop at all. Does anyone know what this could be? Or know how to fix this problem?
  • One laptop can connect to our home Wi-Fi network but no other devices can connect? We recently set up a wireless internet connection in our house. One laptop can connect to it (the one I'm currently on) but no other devices can connect to it. It says our "Network Security Key" is mismatched. I have tried typing in all the different codes on both the router and modem on both our second laptop and an iPhone 5. How can I fix this?
  • My Wi-Fi won't connect on my laptop but will connect to my other devices (an iPhone and iPad)? I have a MacBook Air. Sometimes it does connect but other times it just won't. It takes ages connecting and then in the end comes up with the exclamation mark or is just blank. Is this a problem with my laptop? I've tried researching the problem but have found nothing.
