iPhone "Usb Not Recognised"

Hi, I know there have been loads of similar questions since the iOS 5 and Itunes 10.6 update. I recently got a new laptop and have tried to plug my iPhone in for the first time yet a "Usb Device is not Recognised" keeps showing up. My iPhone does not show up in iTunes or on My Computer. I have tried and followed almost every trouble shooter including:

  • http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 ( Please so not give me this link, I have tried every step on it about 500 times =.=)
  • http://http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2292
  • iTune's Diagnostics (which have lead me back to the links above)
  • Selective Startup only having iTunes start up.
  • Restarting my laptop.
  • Making a new "Inbound Rule" through Windows Firewall for iTunes.
  • Checked my USB cable etc.
  • Getting recognised as a Camera
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes + everything published by Apple Inc.
  • Deleted everything under the Universal Serial Bus Controllers, restarted my laptop so that it reinstalled them then plugged in my iPhone.
  • I've stopped the Apple Mobile Device service, plugged my iPhone in, then restarted the service. The same message pops up.


I'm pretty confident it is a problem to do with my iPhone 3G as I have tried it on multiple different computers with different Apple USB cords and it has always come up with the same message.

I have also found in my iTunes diagnostics log above ^^ it says that iTunes is not enabled by Windows Firewall, even though I have it enabled and followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2553 to enable it and the iTunes box was already checked. However, I do have 3rd party Antivirus software running (Norton Internet Security) Could this be conflicting with windows firewall? If so, how do I turn off the firewall in the Norton program so that it stops conflicting with it.


And if this is relevant, I also found that

Connection attempt to firmware update server was unsuccessful.

The network connection timed out.

Is is this important?

Thanks in advance.
