Hi there,
The question that I want to ask can you try device on other computer? Best choise to isolate issue is with iPhone or computer/os.

  • IPhone 6 does not show in iTunes when using WiFi

    My iPhone 6+ shows up in iTunes when connected via USB. But if I disconnect the cable and turn off iTunes and then come back later it does not show up like my iPhone 5 did using OS 7.
    I have the option selected in iTunes to "automatically connect using WiFi".
    I have tried turning off my phone and restarting iTunes but it does not help.
    Any suggestions?

    Greetings Paul,
    It sounds as though you are attempting to sync with iTunes via WiFi, and are running into some complications. After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iTunes WiFi sync:
    Sync using Wi-Fi
    Open iTunes
    To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable.
    Click the Device button in the upper-right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button first.) If you don't see your device, choose View > Hide Sidebar.
    In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi."
    When the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when the following conditions are true:
    The iOS device is charging.
    iTunes is open on the computer.
    The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
    While the iOS device is in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
    Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
    If the iOS device doesn't appear in the Devices section or you can't sync, please try these steps.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Windows: iphone does not show in itunes

    Hi all,
    I used to sync my iphone with itunes on my notebook.
    I realy dont know what changed but: from one day to the other, itunes does not recognize the iphone any more.
    ( the cable seems to be ok, since when I connect the iphone to a different computer, itunes fires up ok)
    I checked the support page (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495 ), so:
    i have the usbaapl.sys file in system32/drivers; ok
    the apple serverices are running; ok
    BUT: the iphone is not listed under USB devices in the device manager
    (btw: the windows camera diaglog fires up as expected, when the iphone is connected )
    I restarted my notebook, reinstalled itunes, turned the Iphone off and on - no change.
    I realy need my iphone to sync again - so please help.

    The only other option I can think, is that you should try a program called revo uninstaller. It will go through and not only uninstall the program but also delete all registry files and files/folders related to the program. Before you do this, you should backup iTunes onto DVDs or to a hard drive.
    If this doesn't work, then it is a problem with the Windows OS itself and not with the iPhone software on Windows.
    One last thing, when you connect your iPhone, do the following:
    -Right click on My Computer and select Manage
    -Select Device Manager
    -Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers
    -Do you see "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver"?
    -Try right clicking on it and select uninstall.
    -Disconnect and reconnect your iPhone.

  • Ipod does not show on itunes..

    the 30gb ipod does not show on itunes but the window can read.
    It is because i over charged the ipod?( my sister's ipod was shown in itunes and my can't).
    The day before it was working perfectly well.
    The music pitch is weird now
    I can't restore it... i deleted all of my music in the library.
    i have no idea how to copy the music into the com.......................... please help.

    If your iPod is being recognised by Windows you could try this manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted here: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. Again if Windows is recognising the iPod these may too.

    If you can get your songs back to the computer then have a look here:

  • I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it.  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

    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

  • I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

    I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts.   All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window".  But what if you have no device window?

    Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
    I thought the libraries were the same.

  • HT1296 replacement iphone does not show up on itunes and i cannot sync

    replacement iphone does not show up on itunes and I cannot sync

    You can't have an iMac PPC (PowerPC) if you loaded Snow Leopard.  iMac Intel are the only Macs that are compatible with 10.6.   So the first thing wrong you are doing is posting in the wrong forum, or giving us misinformation.
    Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to find out exactly what you are running.  A G5 is a PowerPC.  Intel is Intel.
    Also look at the operating system in that window and update your profile.
    What version of iTunes do you have?
    Has the iPad ever shown before on this machine?   Once we have your correct info, I'll ask a moderator move this thread.

  • Iphone 3GS does not show as iTunes Device

    I've followed all instructions and the troubleshooter and my Iphone 3GS still does not show in Itunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro with Lion installed.  Any suggestions?

    I tried a different cable and the iphone now shows up so I believe my cable had failed. Hope this is help to others troubleshooting a similar problem.

  • Ipad 2 does not show in itunes

    My ipad 2 was completely dead last night so I plugged it in to charge using the 10W wall charger that came with it and noticed that it did not vibrate when I plugged it in nor did it show the lightning bolt showing it was charging. I left it alone from a few hours and when I checked, it was up to 12%. Normally a few hours will almost fully charge it. I swapped out a few different cables, chargers, and even plugged it into my mac USB, and none of them vibrated and showed the lightning bolt. When I plug it into my Mac, it does not show in iTunes at all under devices. I plugged in my iPhone and iPod and both showed instantly. I decided to leave the paid charge overnight on the wall charger to see what would happen.
    This morning it was up to 53%. I updated the iPad 2 software to iOS 5.1.1, updated iTunes to 10.6.1, updated all software on my Mac (I have OS X 10.6.8) and still doesnt show in iTunes and none of the chargers or cables make it vibrate when plugged in and none show the charging bolt. I deleted iTunes and the Apple Mobile Device driver and then reinstalled thinking perhaps the mobile device driver was messed up - didnt help.
    On the iPad 2, I went to settings/general/reset/reset network settings - no help.
    Of course, throughout this I have reset my Mac several times, reset the iPad both by sliding the bar to shut down and by holding down the reset button & home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears, and as stated above tried several wall chargers and USB cables that works on my other i products. So I do not think its something obvious like that.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    ITunes 10.6.1

    Let me know when you figure this out. I am experiencing the exact same situation. Just started this morning after I switched my mobileme account to icloud. I can see my iphone in itunes, but when I plug my ipad in, nothing. Not on any computer. I have always been able to sync and charge with no trouble. Now my ipad is slowly turning in to a door stop.
    Help!
    Thank you!

  • I transferred itunes library from old PC to new PC. The content all shows when I launch iTunes on the new PC now. The previous content does not show in iTunes but folder still looks like it is on hard drive on new PC. Suggestions on how to properly merge?

    I transferred itunes library from old PC to new PC. The content all shows when I launch iTunes on the new PC now. The previous content does not show in iTunes but folder still looks like it is on hard drive on new PC. Suggestions on how to properly merge?

    Before you connect any device to a new library go to the Devices tab of the the preferences panel via Edit > Preferences (Windows) or iTunes > Preferences (Mac) and ensure the box next to Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically is ticked. You can now safely connect the device to your computer without the danger of media being automatically deleted or overwritten.
    To get all your content off your connect your iPad to your new computer.
    Then use a 3rd party piece of software to transfer your content
    I have found Senuti useful but there are others listed in the article I linked to in a previous post.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    That will let you transfer your non purchased content
    For Purchased content log in to iTunes on the new computer
    In Itunes Store click on Purchased under the Quick Links section on the right.
    Download any music by clicking on the cloud button

  • After updating my iPhone 4S to IOS6 my iPhone does not appear in iTunes.

    After I updated my iPhone 4S to IOS6, I experienced the following issues.
    1. My iPhone would not connect to WIFI, even though the WIFI icon on my iPhone indicated that it was. This in it self cost me $239.00 in excess data usage. I have since got the WIFI working by resetting my iPhone.
    2. Since I have fixed the WIFI issues, I can not connect to iTunes to restore from backup. My iPhone does not show up in iTunes either via USB or WIFI.
    So my iPhone has non of my music, photo's, apps or settings.
    So if anyone has a solution to my issues please let me know.
    Cheers.
