Try it in a different USB port? Try something else in that USB port? If you've got access to any other iPod/iPhone, try that one or a different USB/iPod cable? That way, you should be able to rule out whether it's the laptop or the iPhone or the cable that has the problem.


First off, you have tried the initial old standby of helpdesks everywhere, restarting the laptop?

if only the tones for text alerts could be sorted as easily, surely apple must know by now how irratating it is to only have barely audible tones for texts and send out some kind of update software to allow the change of text alerts to be changed like the ringing alerts can.

Hi ontheedge,


Did your phone go through a iOS update on your iphone immediately before the phone ceased to work on the laptop or go through an upgrade to the latest version of itunes on the computer, What version are you using now of itunes?


What phone model are you using 2G, 3GS, or 4G? and what version?


What is the operating system that you're using on the computer and is it a MAC or a PC?


Does you iphone work otherwise, make calls etc normally?


I can point you to this article, and hopefully this will be enough for you to fix the problem:

What model are you using?


I am using the iphone4 and have updated to iOS 4.2 Beta.


It seems that they have added 17 new longer SMS alerts as well as additional features including assigning individual ringtones, sadly still no option to make a custom sms alert as yet.


I have been trying to find an application at least that will enable us to do so to no avail.


Yet of course we could add custom tones if we were to jailbreak!


Hopefully Apple will get moving on making the feature available soon.


Here is another article that introduces the new features... http://www.tuaw.com/2010/11/10/what-to-expect-from-ios-4-2-on-iphone/

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
