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/

    • There is a large amount fresh veg available in the green book cage outside the copleston church,sprouts,spring onions,potatoes,parsnips and bread rolls,pop down shame to see it get wasted          
    • On the original topic - there was more of this on Whateley Road today. Same place but the other side of the road. Could be the same dogwalker as for the other nearby roads?   I don't have a dog - but would have thought it's hard for owners not to notice when a dog is doing it in the middle of a pavement? 
    • Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close (Boots the chemist was a shoplifters favourite over the years) but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area.  Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers. Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. The security guards are very nonchalant. The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items.  The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.         
    • Maybe I'm behind the times, but in the old days if you went to a pub for charity fundraiser you'd have a quiz or karaoke and you'd be chipping in for a new scanner at your local hospital or maybe sending some poor kiddie for some cancer treatment abroad. Nowadays you can roll down to the Old Nun's head in Nunhead and tip your money into a bucket for some sad young woman to go a private surgeon and have her breasts sliced off -  as if that was going to be some kind of life-saving treatment!  Not only that, she's publicising her Valentine's crowdfunder with a funny ha ha (not) cartoon of a girl (see pic) with a hypodermic in her bum and calling it 'Valen-Tits-off'. Jesus wept. Whatever happened to hearts and flowers? It's so unbelievably sick. I'm a woman, I've pretty much still got all the woman-bits intact. Periods and puberty weren't much fun, I was bullied at school, wondered about my sexuality and boys and spots and the rest of it, got called a lezzer by the class cow, but I got through it. And I would no more think that cutting bits off a girl was the solution to her misery than I would put my teenage daughter on a diet if she was diagnosed with anorexia. I can't be the only person who finds the pub - and its publicity material - very VERY offensive?
