IOS 12 More power to you. IOS 12 is designed to make your iPhone and iPad experience even faster, more responsive, and more delightful. Here are the latest features and improvements in the world’s most advanced mobile operating system. Today, Apple released iOS 4.3 beta to developers and for the first time did not include an update for the iPhone 3G or iPod Touch 2G. Users have long complained that iOS 4.x runs too slow on their.

When I connect my iPhone 3GS to my computer, iTunes does not detect it. The phone displays the green battery meter indicating it's charging, System Profiler detects an 'iPhone' connected to the USB bus, and I can even open iPhoto and pull some pictures off of it. It doesn't appear under 'Devices' in iTunes at all, nor does it appear in the Organizer window in Xcode. I've tried: • Using a different sync cable.

• Using a different USB port. • Restarting the phone. • Restarting the computer. • Connecting the phone to a different computer. (I'm on OS X 10.6.6 and iTunes 10.1.2).

The other answers to this question as of writing this answer are now somewhat outdated – you can't manually uninstall iTunes without disabling SIP on El Capitan and newer macOS versions, and I would not recommend disabling SIP to delete iTunes. Continue reading this answer for an updated method. Reinstall iTunes If your iPhone isn't showing up on iTunes on macOS, you may reinstall iTunes by downloading the installer from. Note that this will work on newer macOS versions such as El Capitan, Sierra, and High Sierra. You do not need to disable System Integrity Protection to do this. As a matter of fact, this is what solved my issue on a Mac with High Sierra. My iPhone wasn't showing up in iTunes or Xcode, but reinstalling iTunes allowed it to show up again.

If, however, you issue isn't solved by reinstalling iTunes, there are a myriad of things you could try. In order to diagnose my own issue I made a list of things you could try, which you can find below. Some of these points may solve your issue. Some allow you to diagnose what might be causing the issue; these will thereby help you to isolate the cause and hopefully be able to fix it. For macOS and Windows • Take a look at for troubleshooting the issue (advice for both macOS and Windows is available here). • Try a different, certified lightning cable.

A lightning cable might stop working (even if your device charges). Using an uncertified (non-MFi) cable can cause unexpected behavior such as preventing your iPhone from showing up in iTunes. Mac os x for pc. • Try connecting your iPhone to a different computer. Connect it to another Mac; does it show up there?

What about on a Windows PC? If it shows up on another computer, there might be something wrong with your own computer. Try looking at Apple's guide above if this is the case. • Try connecting another iPhone to your computer.

Does it show up? If it does, there might be something wrong with your main iPhone. If it doesn't, it might mean that iTunes on your computer doesn't want to display any devices. You can confirm this by checking the previous point. • Try restarting iTunes. If that doesn't work, try restarting your iPhone or your computer. Perhaps it'll show up after a reboot.

• Try different USB ports on your computer, in the case that one is faulty. • If you have any third-party iPhone managers installed such as AnyTrans, iMazing, or iFunBox, try seeing whether the device shows up there. You may also try other apps that work by detecting your iPhone and see if they can still detect it (such as coconutBattery).

• Unlock your device and see if any computer trust popup shows up. • Is the iPhone or computer running on beta software? If so, that might be causing unexpected problems. Either upgrade to the latest beta or downgrade to the latest stable release (usually the latter will work). • Put your iPhone (if you have an iPhone 7, you need to see the special instructions on the bottom of that page). After putting it successfully in DFU mode, does it show up in iTunes?

If it does, then your cable most likely works. If it doesn't, try plugging it in (while it's in DFU mode) into another computer, with another cable, or into a different USB port. • Reset your iPhone privacy settings, which resets computer trust settings.
