Iphone is not connecting to itunes. not showing as a device
Itunes is not recognising my iphone as a device. i have tried all the trouble shooting from restarting computer to switching off my antivirus
Have you tried the steps in this article?:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Does your phone recgonize a charger? (if it was plugged into the wall outlet) You may need to try a different USB cord/different USB port. If that doesn't work, try to create a new user account to see if iTunes will detect the phone. If you take that step, make sure you disable automatic syncing by going to edit>preferences>devices and putting a check mark next to "prevent iphones, ipods and ipads from syncing automatically"

I am unable to see my iPhone in the itunes window. I authorized the computer but it still will not show. Under devices it is not listed. Any suggestions?
You do see the devices heading on the left sidebar? If you don't see the sidebar, go to View>Show sidebar in the iTunes menu and then check to see if the device appears.
If that isn't the problem, go through the troubleshooting steps. It could be the Apple Mobile Device Service issue.

IPhone does not show up under devices on my hard drive
I have a MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4. At one time, my iPhone did show up under devices on my hard drive until I did something really stupid and deleted it. It has never shown up since. Any help out there? (It shows up in iTunes just fine.)
Is your iPhone fully charged? If not, it will not upload to PhotoStream, to save energy.
See:
iCloud: Photo Stream Troubleshooting
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
Is iTunes running, when you connect your iPhone? Quit iTunes, before you connect your phone. -
IPhone does not show up as device, unless.....
My iPhone often does not show up as a device in iTunes (Mac version) unless I turn wifi off, then back on. When I do this, he iPhone appears as a device. My iPad always shows up as a device. It's only the iPhone that's a problem.
Occassionally if a picture is saved from an email, an MMS or copied from a website, it has had the tendency to create an error when trying to import the pictures from the camera roll. If that is the case on phone "B", then it is suggested that you email the offfending photos and then delete them from the camera roll. Once that is done, most will then appear in Windows. Not sure if this is the case for you, but that is generally the first fix.

I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto. I cannot figure out how to do that. The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device. Does this kind of download have to run through itunes? Thanks
Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device. The following is general information on iTunes sync: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 and the following is a previous discussion where the post by Andreas Junge helped others that had a problem syncing audiobooks: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20052732#20052732

Can I recover photos on iPhone 4S not backed up on iCloud or computer when connect to iTunes error shows up on screen? My son was trying to update now it must go to restore. HELP!
If there is no backup of the device to iCloud or iTunes and the device has gone into recovery mode when trying to update, then the data is gone. If the device was connected to iTunes to do the update originally, it is possible the default backup was done, unless your son disabled it. To check to see if there is a backup, go in iTunes, click on Edit, Preferences, Devices and see if there is a backup listed for the date/time before the update was started. If he was doing the update OTA on the phone, then there is no backup. No backup, no photos.
