IPhone 4S no longer recognised on iTunes 10.6.3 after iOS 7 update
Hi,
I am having problems with my iPhone 4S connecting to iTunes now I have updated to iOS 7. iTunes says I need version 11.1 for my phone to be recognised (i currently have iTunes 10.6.3) so, I go to download 11.1 and it wont do it because my mac software needs to be updated to OSX 10.6.8! (i am currently OSX 10.5.8) so I go to the software centre to download 10.6.8 but it tells me that my mac is up to date....
Is my mac too old now and Apple no longer support it?... (im on Leopard i believe - old i know!!) I hope not! updating my iPhone to iOS 7 should not force me to buy a new mac! (although i would quite like to update mine )
Any support that someone can give me would be great becuase I dont live very close to a mac store to go in and ask for help.
Many Thanks
Kezia

Model Identifier: iMac8,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo

IPhone 3G no longer recognised by iTunes 8 under 10.5.5
Running my phone with 2.1 on an intel iMac with iTunes 8 and 10.5.5
The phone no longer shows up under the devices list of iTunes. This has only happened in the last couple of days and seems to have co-incided with "upgrading" from 10.5.4 to 10.5.5
Anyone else have this problem? One suggested solution was to disable the genius function, but this doesnt have any impact upon the problem. iTunes wont see my iPod Touch and also has sporadic problems seeing the Apple TV, although the latter does eventually show up.
It does seem to be 10.5.5 that is the problem as I've had no previous problems either with the fw 2.1 or upgrading to itunes 8 and using the genius function.Well I'll give this a try, but I see no reason why this should necessarily help. My phone has been plugged into a USB port on an Iomega MiniMax external hard drive and has been instantly recognised for weeks before a couple of nights ago.
Its extremely frustrating that on a £1200 computer you only get three USB ports - absolutely pathetic considering the mini has 4. I've seen apologists for Apple saying that the keyboard gives you more, but what if you use bluetooth? And as anyone knows - try using a keyboard hub for anything more than a mouse, and misery soon results! -

Fed up with this whole iphone, to be honest it's more hastle than its worth!!
Have followed almost every piece of advice as in uninstalling all apple software, rebooting etc etc etc, still no further forward. My only option is to pay apple to get them to update one of their own products.....already been getting the usual its because of Windows this that and everything else........anyone wanna buy an iphone, only 6 months old.........................never ever had so much hastle trying to get a product to be recognised by its own software in my entire life and it seems that I am not alone, very common prblem and no formal resolution.
Any further help or advice would be much aprreciated before I throw this **** phone in the trash! Sorry for the rant but sooooooooo annoyed at not being able to do what should be a very simple task.
Hope someone can help.....please????Went to the Apple store and they replaced the cable.

IPhone 5s will no longer sync to iTunes now that I download iOS 8.1.2
iPhone 5s will no longer sync to iTunes now that I downloaded iOS 8.1.2 I get the message that it "failed to sync because the sync failed to start." Doesn't work with cable or over WiFi. Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?
Before connecting your device to iTunes to sync, double-click the Home button, and close all open apps by sliding up on the thumbnails until all open apps are closed. Then try the sync again.

My iPhone device no longer recognized in iTunes. What can I do?
My iPhone device no longer recognized in iTunes. What can I do?
I just did a reset and that fixed it. You know how to do a reset? Hold the home and off buttons down at the same time unitl it goes off and then comes back on again. Then let them go. Try it. It worked for me.

My iPhone 4 no longer appears in iTunes. But it does charge. Tried most tips please help someone!
Hi there,
No I didn't. Someone suggested in another thread that my iPod was registering as a disk instead of a device, so if I removed my iPod as a disk on Disk Utility then it would reload etc. and show up in iTunes. Which it didn't, and instead just cleared all my music (16,000 songs).
So frustrating.
Hope if you have the same problem you are able to find a better solution! -
My Iphone 4s no longer recognised by my Sony car stereo (via usb) or by my apple friendly music dock. Any ideas?
Had started acting up just prior to IOS 8.0 then seemed ok a few days into using IOS 8.0 but now back to square one.
Have updated to IOS8.0.2 but still nothing.maybe try cleaning out the port at the bottom of your iphone by blowing it out with compressed air or maybe by using a soft brush. or maybe gently with a toothpick. but nothing metal. perhaps there's dirt or dust in there that's preventing a connection. similarly make sure the connectors on your docks and cables are clean.

with the latest IOS 7.0.3 for my iPhone, it no longer syncs with iTunes. I've run the diagnostics for syncing and it says everything is working, which it clearly isn't. Is there anything to be done without restoring iPhone? Thanks
update : so after reading numerous posts, I tried unchecking entire playlist and just tried one of my playlists. That sync seemed to work, so I rechecked entire playlist and did the sync. It worked. Then I went in to my "walk to work" playlist and added some songs to see if it would sync now, and it did!!! so happy now. will see what happens tomorrow.

IPhone 4 no longer automatically launches iTunes
My iPhone 4 no longer automatically launches iTunes. In iTunes, the box is checked that says "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected." I've checked and unchecked that box, restarted the computer, etc., but nothing I've done has fixed the problem. I've seen the solutions for the same problem in Windows, but not for a Mac. How can I fix this?
Hi,
I have the same problem and found the same solution (i.e. unchecking then "open iTunes when iPhone is connected", then rechecking it, re-installing iTunes Helper).
The only problem is that this keeps happening over and over, and while I can certainly manage opening iTunes manually whenever I connect my phone, it bothers me that something is not working and I cannot figure out how to fix it.
I noticed that when iTunes does not open automatically, you will see that iTunes Helper is not available in the System Preferences -> Users -> Login Items. The funny thing is that I am not even able to find it on my computer at all - until I re-install it through iTunes that is...
Does anybody have an answer for this?
Thanks,

Hi my and my husbands iphones are no longer syncing to itunes but have in the past. When i try to download the latest version of itunes it won't let me do it until I load and earliers version....help
No problem.
Okay ... Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does that install go through okay? If so, can you connect the phones now? -
