    my laptop is unable to see my iphone ...have tried the usual fixes


    For several days I have been unable to “see” my iphone on my latops “This PC” using winver 1803
    I have tried the usual recommended solutions to fix this

    by switching cables, changing ports, rebooting both iphone and pc but could not solve the problem

    The usual prompt message that appears on the iphone 6 which says, ‘Trust This Computer’ is not appearing, but the iphone
    is showing up in my itunes software.
    Any further suggestions on what I should try?

    :)

    iphone, win7 and p55... uselesssssss, need help

    After a couple hours of attempting to sync my daughters iphone to my pc I discovered that some people are having the same issue when using win7 - p55 and itunes..

    i hate itunes so I tried poddox, annapod, xplay and still none of these will recognize that the iphone is plugged in.. although in "my pc" the iphone is listed under cameras and im able to access pics that are on the iphone..

    i was hoping someone here is using p55. win7 and an iphone and could suggest a good program other than itunes to sync with.. or how to fix it using itunes.

    Thanks

  3. Apple iPhone in Autoplay list

    I am unable to remove the listing in Autoplay for Apple Iphone and I spent numerous hours trying to remove it with no luck at all. I followed the steps using the registry as well, still it is shown on the AutoPlay listing.
    Spoke to one IT helpdesk agent and said the only way to get rid of it is to just reinstall Windows in order to remove that option from the list.

    I even re-inserted my iPhone to my machine and uninstalled the drivers from Device Manager under Portable Devices.

    Obsolete devices in Autoplay list multiple entries for same - Microsoft Community

    Update >> I managed to remove it under Devices and Printers. Looks like it does not work under Device Manager.

    Laptop not accepting iPhone hotpspot

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    1. Do you see the network (Hotspot) name under available networks?
    2. Are you able to connect any other Windows computer with your iPhone?
    3. When you say ‘I recently upgraded my phone’, do you mean that it is a new device and you are trying to connect it for the first time?


    If it is not a new device and you were able to connect your Windows PC with it before it was updated, I would suggest to remove the network from known networks and try to reconnect.



    Please get back to us with the information requested above for us to suggest the appropriate troubleshooting steps.



    We look forward for your reply.



    Regards,
