macOS computer doesn't see iPhone or iPad

I'll start with the native Mac computer running macOS for iPhone and iPad. Naturally, due to the fact that this is one “family”, users are less likely to have a problem when the computer does not see the iPhone. But such cases still happen.

Step 1: Disconnect all devices from your computer and close iTunes

Step 2. Go to the Finder and simultaneously press the cmd + shift + G buttons in the window that appears, enter /var/db/lockdown and press the go button.

Step 3. You will find yourself in a folder with certificates of all devices ever connected to your Mac; you need to delete them

After that, connect the iPhone to the computer and when asked whether to trust it or not, answer trust. Your Mac will now be able to see your iPhone normally.

iPod Update Frequently Asked Questions

What can go wrong updating iPod drivers and why do it?

Most users do not update iPod device drivers because they do not want to create problems with their PC.

How are iPod drivers updated?

iPod drivers can be updated manually using Windows Device Manager or automatically by downloading a driver software update utility.

What operating systems are compatible with iPod drivers?

iPod drivers are supported by Windows.

What are iPod device drivers used for?

Drivers are mini-programs developed by iPod that enable the iPod hardware to communicate effectively with your operating system.

Where to download and how to install drivers for Apple Mobile Device

There are several options to make this happen. They are very different from each other and, except for the first and second, are not always effective. Let's look at them all.

Option 1: Use the official website

The most reasonable and effective of those presented. The official website of the equipment manufacturer often provides the most current versions of drivers that will definitely be compatible with your device and operating system.

However, downloading and installing the necessary software has a non-standard form and is carried out according to the following instructions (developed according to Apple recommendations):

1. Launch the “Run” line using the Win+R key combination.
2. In the line that appears, you need to enter the following value: %ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers and press Enter or “Ok” to apply.

Option 2: Search by equipment ID

Windows assigns a unique identifier to all devices connected to your computer. With its help, you can quickly find the appropriate driver on special sites that are driver databases. This is also true even for such a non-standard device as the Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode).

We wrote in detail about finding a unique identifier and downloading drivers using it in a separate article. We recommend you read it.

The unique ID for an Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) looks like this: USB\VID_05AC&PID_1290

In general, this method is quite accurate and allows you to install the latest and compatible version of drivers for your device. However, we recommend, if possible, using the first option given in the article.

Option 3: Programs for automatically searching and installing drivers

There are several third-party programs that automatically analyze your computer and connected devices to ensure that the drivers installed on them are up to date. If the required driver is not available at all, then it does not matter - the program will detect a component that does not have a driver and install its current version. Everything happens automatically and the user requires a minimum of actions.

The best programs in this segment are DriverPack Solution, Driver Hub and Driver Installer. They work on approximately the same principle, but use different libraries, so in some cases they may download outdated or incompatible drivers. Fortunately, this happens very rarely.

In the case of the Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode), we do not recommend trusting third-party programs to install drivers, since this device is still rarely found on Windows computers.

Option 4: Installing drivers via Windows

This option is rarely used because it is ineffective. You can try it if you don’t want to waste time installing according to Apple’s official instructions or searching for the required driver by ID. If it doesn’t work out, you can always use another option presented in the article.

The instructions in this case look like this:

1. Open Device Manager using any available method. In our case, it will be easier to use a special command through the “Run” line, since it is universal for all versions of Windows. Open this line using the keyboard shortcut Win+R.
2. Enter the command into it: devmgmt.msc and press Enter or the “Ok” button. This command is responsible for opening the “Device Manager”.

Now find the section where Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) is present. It is usually located in "Other Devices" or "USB Controllers". Expand one of these branches. If you don't find it there, check other branches.

Using the methods presented, you can quickly install missing drivers for Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) or update outdated ones.
