Error Message: "This iPod cannot be used because the required software...
...is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install iTunes again."
I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes about 4 times now. I have no idea what the heck is going on. Any help at all would be appreciated. This is driving me mad. I feel like I'm using a Microsoft product.I had a somewhat similar problem. The way I solved it was to uninstall all the Apple software I had, reboot, reinstall and reboot. In my case I uninstalled Bonjour, iTunes, Quicktime and the Apple Device Drivers(I think that is what it is called.) That solved my problem.
You might want give this a go. -
Yeah, so I keep getting that error message. The thing is that the service IS running, and it's set to "automatic". I've reinstalled every shred of Apple software on my PC, I've updated my virus software, and yet it still isn't working. I'm at a dead end here, so any help would be great.
I FIXED IT! Oh sweet Jesus Mary and Bob....
So after much scouring of the Googles, I found that the source of the problem was a little program called FoxyProxy Video Utility. It was causing various Windows services to crash--AMDS being the most noticeable. I uninstalled that program and PRESTO, my iPod shows up on iTunes! -
Error Message "This iPhone cannot be used because..."
I am trying to use my iPhone with a new laptop. I installed iTunes most recent version and it works fine.
When I plug my iPhone in, I get an error message: "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service has not been started."
I have been using my iPhone (and various iPods and iTouches). I have never had a problem plugging them in and POOF, they show up in iTunes. None of them will show up in iTunes in my new computer.
What am I doing wrong?Is this any good:

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What is the issue, had this phone over a year??
I had this problem before. I like to disable extra services to speed up my computer and I disabled the Apple Mobile Device service and had to re-enable this.
You can do that by going Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services. Once you have gone to the services window, look for Apple Mobile Device and right-click. Select "Properties". There should be some information about the service as well as the label "Startup Type" with a drop-down menu beside it. If it says "disabled", that is your problem; Change the selection to anything except disabled (Automatic is easier and ensures that you can sync as soon as itunes opens).
If this doesn't work, I would look into your anti-virus' settings. Good Luck! -
