I get the "Trust this Computer?" message everyday I plug my iPhone 5S into my work PC to charge, but not at home on my iMac. What gives? Does my 5S recognized via iClould that my iMac is on the same iClould account?

Because your iPhone is tied to iTunes on your Mac. By connecting to a (strange) PC you open up the possibility for corruption. It's best to use a wall wart.
 
What is annoying is that you need to trust your computer each time you connect on it!
Each time I connect it to my laptop at work I have to tap the "Trust this computer" button. I think the iDevice should remember the computers you trust. Because if you trust it once, you'll trust it all the time. (That's my humble opinion at least).
 
I get that message on my iPad when I connect my iPhone with the camera connection kit...each time.

How about an "I wouldn't connect it if I didn't trust it, you moron!" button. :rolleyes:
 
Really Annoyed!

Is there a setting to tell it to never trust my work computer, I only want it to charge when I plug it in here anyway?
 
this has been discussed before but the only way to make if stop on a PC is to install iTunes.
