Question: Trust this Computer?

I installed iOS 7 this morning, and now with every restart of my iPad - if it is plugged into my iMac - I am asked "Trust This Computer?" I restarted 3 times, and was asked each time. Is this something that we will see every time we sync our tablets and phones?

I had a similar issue with both my Iphone 5 and my Ipad 2nd gen when I updated to itunes 11.1. I had to update the drivers for both of by devices. I am running windows 8 as well. I had to go into my device manager in the control panel and then search for my devices. They werent showing up as Apple Mobile Devices. I found them in portable devices. I then right clicked and said update drivers. I then told it I wanted to search for the driver my self and then told it I had a disk and went to this file path C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. I found the correct driver for both devices in there. Updated and now all is working.

This was the driver file name. usbaapl64

I'm having the exact same issue after I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 7.


I normally charge my phone connecting it to my laptop and I have to plug and unplug as I walk way from my office.


Every time will prompt "trust this computer".


Is there a way to disable this?


- Thanks in Advance -

If your still going through this issue try;

- turning your device off/on

- settings > general > reset (scroll down) > reset all settings


note. reset all settings only resets settings and not personal data. things like wifi settings, ringtone settings etc

As mentioned above, this problem has somehow been eradicated for me. I'm not sure exactly what fixed the issue for me, but I can say I did the following things - in this exact order - after which the issue was no more:


1) Installed the latest version of iTunes (11.1).


2) Ran a number of system maintenance tasks, for which I use the application "OnyX". In particular, I verified "S.M.A.R.T status" and "structure of volume", then verify/repair "System Permissions", then ran daily, weekly, and monthly "Scripts", then ran a rebuild of "LaunchServices", then ran a number of "Cleaning" tasks (including all "System, User, and Misc." tasks).


3) Restarted my iPhone, my iPad, and the computer used to sync these devices (my iMac).


I'm not sure if one (or any) of these things rectified the problem for me, but I'm sure delighted it's been rectified.


Hope this helps.

At least you're getting prompted. I updated yesterday and it has yet to prompt me either on my work PC (win 7) or my macbook pro at home. I've reset the settings already. Until you trust a device it won't show up as a drive when you connect it to your PC. So if I want to get a photo off of it from my work PC (that doesn't have iTunes configured) i have to email the pic to me.


Anyone else encountered this?

This warning seems to come up when using non Apple Certified third party cables. If you have a non Apple certified cable connecting your device to your computer replace it with one certified by Apple. This can be an Apple branded cable or one manufactured by another company. Just make sure the cable is certified.
