Itunes doesnt find any of my devices

I connect my ipod and iphone to my laptop and itunes does nothing,
its not listed in my devices in itunes.
I have the latest update's.
I have followed all the guids and they dont work,
they dont even show up under my computer.
but they still get charged.

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Run this to help if it identifies the cause

Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?

  • Server could not find any Meta-Data devices!

    Our MDC dropped out and the backups did not engage.
    On a reboot of the MDC we were able to mount the volume, but all files (QuickTme movies, FCP projct files) could not be opened with an "unknown file type error".
    We shut all the clients down we checked the volume and (cvfsck -nv) and while "dirty" it did not report any errors.
    Stopped the volume and ran a cvfsck -w which gave us:
    "Server could not find any Meta-Data devices!"
    Checking Xsan admin logs shows us:
    "PioOpen: no such device.
    Fatal: Cannot open stripe group "md" - Operation not supported by device
    Fatal: Physio_init failed."
    Where "md" is our metadata storage pool.
    We shutdown all switches, RAIDS, clients, etc, but bring them all back up and checking with one MDC or another is the same result. Volume will not mount.
    All fiber connections seem good, checked in RAID admin and on switch.
    Ideas?

    AppleCare suggested that maybe a metadata backup could have helped.

  • AirPort Utility unable to find any Apple Express devices.

    Help! This is getting desperate. I bought an AEX for streaming music to my hifi. Installed it yesterday and it worked on both my desktop (running Vista) and my laptop (running XP). However I was experiencing sound dropouts on the Vista machine so, having researched on this forum, I tried to change a couple of settings in my wireless router (D Link DI524) to try and cure the problem.
    My wireless network is still working fine but since making the changes the AirPort Utility software just keeps telling me that it is unable to find any Apple Express devices and I cannot make a connection. It is the same on both my desktop and my laptop.
    I can't see why changing security settings in the router should prevent the Utility from connecting with the device as it has to do this during set up anyway to be incorporated into the network. I have tried a full re-set to factory settings but that didn't work. Any ideas? Otherwise this thing is going back to the store.

    It's ok. It seems to have cured itself. And downloading Vista Anti Lag has cured the sound drop outs too.

  • Unable to find any airport wireless device

    Hey there. I very recently installed airport Utility (latests version) for windows 7, for the purpose of fowarding ports 1630-1636 for a game. Sadly, whenever i launch Airport Utility, i get the error message "AIrport utility was unable to find any Airport wireles devices. Please make sure your device is in range of your computer and plugged in. Then rescan and try again." Please help! I'm never able to find my modem (which is an airportextreme) making it impossible to foward these ports!
    Any input will be greatly appreciated!

    Are you connected to the Aiport Extreme either wirelessly or by ethernet?

  • My airport utility says it cannot find any airport wireless devices, even though I am accessing the net via my wifi.  What's up with this?

    My airport utility says it cannot find any airport wireless devices, even though I am accessing the net via my wifi.  What's up with this?  Also, I cannot connect to my Photosmart b209a printer, though a different computer - same Macbook Pro can.  I tried redownloading the software, but in the setup I get a "device not reachable" message:  "However to continue configuring the device in network, your Mac must have access to the device. So please make sure that your Mac has access to the Network ..."  I've checked my network on the system preferences and it's properly connected.  I'm on the net as I do this.  Tis very frustrating, and any assistance woud be appreciated.

    Airport Utility is for administration of genuine Apple Base Stations. If you have a different Brand, Airport Utility can do nothing for you.
    I think they're using ethernet.
    To connect a Printer via Ethernet, no password is needed.
    We already tried the password for the internet and that did not work...
    If a password is required to connect to the Internet, then WiFi is likley being used, and that WiFi password is the one needed for the Printer connect wirelessly as well.
    What make&model Printer? Is it indeed a Wireless Printer? Most connect via USB, but that would force it to use a specific computer to assist in printing.

  • Trying to set up time capsule but keep getting message stating airport utility was unable to find any airport wireless device. What do I do know?

    Trying to set up my time capsule on my imac.
    Keep getting message "Airport utility was unable to find any airport wireless devices."
    What do I do now?
    joglenn

    When having difficulties accessing the Time Capsule (TC) via the AirPort Utility, try the following, in order checking accessibility with the utility after each step:
    Check the local connection. If you are trying to access the TC wirelessly, make sure that you are connected to its wireless network before running the AirPort Utility to administer it. If you are still unable to access it with the utility, temporarily connect your computer directly using an Ethernet cable to one of the TC's LAN ports.
    Power cycle the base station. Remove the power adapter's plug from the power outlet, and then, wait 15 seconds before plugging it back in.
    Perform a "factory default" reset on the base station.
    Finally, if you are attempting to access the TC via an Ethernet connection, be sure that your Ethernet port is NOT configured for Jumbo Frames, i.e., using an MTU of 9000+.

  • I have had a time capsule for years and it worked well.  Now my airport utility states it is unable to find any airport wireless devices.  When I rescan, I get the same response.  I access the internet wirelessly through my Time Capsule - that part works.

    My time capsule is currently not backing up my MAC.  My airport utility states it can't find any airport wireless devices.  But I can access the internet via my time capsule.  I was trying to reset my time capsule but it won't let me since the airport utiity states it can't find any airport wireless devices.

    i was having the same problem. i held the reset button on my airport express for ten seconds, waited for it to restart and than unplugged my internet modem for 15 seconds and waited for it to restart and my wireless worked. but when i go to setup everything through the airport utility everything goes to crap and i have to start over again. i don't get it.

  • AirPort utility unable to find any AirPort wireless devices

    Hi All,
    I have an issue I have no idea how to resolve. I recently purchased a 2TB Time capsule and after a few teething issues have had it working as both router and external storage. I have spent the last 2 weeks transferring all my media to this for central access from all networked computers.
    Its been running fine the whole time until today. For some reason my internet connection was dropped. I turned off the TC and my Modem, and then restarted in the right order.
    WiFi connection is Excellent. I can connect to my mapped TC drive, but I cannot connect to either the internet (my network is now only allowing 'Local Connection') and the Airport utility is unable to find any Airport wireless devices. I was hoping i'd be able to see an issue through the utility but it cant even recognise the device!
    I am yet to do a hard re-set of the TC as I want to avoid having to go through the network set up again and I assume this is the information that is lost? I'm also concerned I will lose the content of the TC and i really dont have the time or the patience to go through that exercise again.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Thanks for the quick response!
    My Modem is not the issue in this case as I have already connected via network cable directly to it and am using it to connect to the internet now.
    I had issues with IP conflict etc when setting up the network and suspect something similar this time, except I cant even open the TC to check the set up as AirPort utilities cant see it.
    I think I have the TC doing the routing as all periphrals attached to the network were getting a 10.0.1.x  IP address, but I have to confess this is not my forte and neither is pinging things as I dont understand any of the information that comes back!
    I assume the hard re-set option is a last resort? I'm tempted to just do it as I cant see I'll be any worse off than now... but I'll hold off and do the proper diagnosis.
    Unfortunately I'm away for the next 2 days so wont get this resolved before then... I have the internet hard wired so that will keep the wife happy... but i will look into this further and report back with more details on my return.
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • My Windows Vista Computer is unable to find any AirPort wireless devices

    My Windows Vista computer is unable to find any AirPort wireless devices.   I just set this up using another (different) computer and it works fine on that one...

    Per chance was the other computer that was able to "find" the AirPort base station another Win Vista device or another using another OS?

  • ITunes doesnt recognise any iphone since upgrade to 10.5

    I am on windows 7 using Toshiba Satelitte L770
    I have an iPhone 3GS, my wife has an iPhone 4 and we have an iPad.
    All 3 worked fine with the Toshiba on itunes 10.4
    I then wanted to upgrade the devices to iOS 5.0.1 (from 4.3) - so iTunes 10.5.2 had to be downloaded first which we did.
    Once iTunes was upgrade - the devices were not recognised, only as camera devices but not in iTunes
    I tried all of the standard troubleshooting as seen here - http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/#section_7
    No joy.
    On a separate laptop running Windows Vista on a Dell Latitude, I have iTunes 10.5.2 installed.
    When i plug the devices in, they are recognised no problem. So this problem appears to be related to the Toshiba only
    I removed itunes and reinstalled the old version 10.4 -- this time iTunes gives out to say the version of iOS is imcompatible with iTunes 10.4 - which I think is good, as at least its recognising the iphone is connected.
    Once I upgrade to 10.5.2. on itunes again, nothing, doesnt recognise the fact that any of the devices have been plugged in
    Help??
    What else can I try, cant find anything on google other than what I covered in the troubleshooting requests.

    Been having the same issues happening on the same machine as you. I did this yesterday, and so far so good.
    1. Restart in safe mode (Hold down shift key when you hear the chime)
    2. Under Applications > Utilities > Disk Utilities, select your hard drive on the left column, and click "Repair Permissions"
    3. Once done, restart
    It's been a day since I've done this, and no beachballs yet (fingers crossed)

  • Airport utility was unable to find any airport wireless device

    Installed Airport Extreme connected to my PC running XP Pro. Configured my wireless network successfully. Updated to Aiport Utility for Windows ver 5.5.2 and the Airport Utility shows the 'unable to find an Airport wireless device' message and the 'Rescan' button. I uninstalled the upgraded Utility software, unplugged the Airport Extreme, installed the original software from the supplied disc, held down the reset button while plugging the power back in and waited till I got the amber/green fast flashing lights at which time I released the reset button.  No change. Then upgraded the Airport Utility back to 5.5.2 and still no change.  I can connect to the web from my PC and to an open wireless network named Apple Network f9561d.
    Any help getting access to my Airport Extreme greatly appreciated. Thx

    PC was/is always directly connected to Airport Extreme via ethernet. Windows XP Pro firewall always has been disabled (double checked). No firewall software.  Disabled PC Tools malware protector.  No virus protection or scanning software.
    Only things showing in toolbar are NVidia Settings, Windows Volume Control, Network Connection icon,Safely Remove Hardware Icon and the time.
    Don't have anything running that would block any ports.
    Airport Utility for Windows is version 5.5.2.
    Did another factory(?) reset as described before and pressed 'Rescan' button 15 times with no change. Devices connected via wireless are Nexus smartphone & HP laptop running Vista. All can access Internet, but slowly.
    Tried rebooting PC several times with no difference. Tried plugging the PC ethernet cable into different ports in the Airport Extreme before I realized that I could always access the Internet from the PC so I was wasting my time : )
    Tonite I unhooked my DLink wireless router, hooked up the Airport Extreme, installed the software, configured the network (perfectly) and then checked for and installed the
    Airport Utility software upgrade (no others). As soon as it finished installing, I ran it and ended up with the error. I didn't install anything else or even run any other software. I saved the configuration, checked for and installed the upgrade.  I haven't changed ANY settings on the PC or run any software other than Firefox to create my Apple account to report this problem.
    Any help greatly appreciated.

  • ITunes wont recognise any of my devices

    Whenever i plug my iPhone 4s or iPad2 into the USB and connect it to my iMAc, the iMac won't recognise it.
    Nothing at all happens - it will only charge. Usually iTunes or iPhoto will open up and recognise my device, but not now.
    I am running the latest software, I've tried restarting all my devices- but nothing works.
    It must be an iMac issue, I'm running iTunes 10.5.3 which is the latest.
    Can anyone help?

    I have no experience with any devices but I would suggest restarting the computer.  Also check if there are any preference boxes that you need to set to get iTunes and/or iPhoto to open when a device is attached.  I assume devices are recognized if itunes is up and running?
