Hi Camo20,


For your issue with your iPhone not connecting to the car, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -


iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections


For your computer connection to the iPhone use the appropriate article from these two -


iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


Best,
