When i plug my phone into my computer and open itunes, i cannot access my phone to add music. Any suggestions?

Hy there,
In order for you to solve this problem you have to follow these stept if your running windows:
1'st step is to go into the device manager
2 step is to go to portable devices (it is rught under network adapters)
3 step is to right clic apple iphone and click update drivers
4 step is to brows your drivers from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
After that your itunes will pump up alown and youl see your iphone right there.
Good luck and sry for my bad righting.

When I plug my ipod into my computer and open itunes, it just charges!!

The "Devices" bit doesn't pop up in itunes so i can;t actually transfer any music onto it.
Anyone have any ideas??
I'm really fed up with it!!

Make sure you have tried the iPod on a different USB port, if you have not done so. And are you using the latest iTunes package downloaded from Apple, instead of the old disc that came with the iPod? Get the latest iTunes software here.

If it still does not work, try resetting the iPod using the two-button combo

If that does not work, try putting the iPod into Disk Mode first, then connect it to the computer.

Hi there kburgee! Other can be anything from App Data (information saved from apps like game progress, or passwords) to or old messages that you haven't deleted! The absolute best way to clean up some space is to restore your iPhone.

HT202778 Why is it that when I plug my iPhone into my computer and press "trust", it disconnects my phone and reconnects it, and still does not connect to iTunes??

When I plug in my iPhone, it connects and begins to charge, then asks me to "trust" the computer. When I select "trust", rather than connecting to iTunes, my phone gets disconnected and then it reconnects again and continues to charge but does not connect to iTunes... I have tried restarting both my computer and my phone, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and I've also tried connecting my phone with different USB cables and connecting them into different USB ports... Still nothing is working.

That's how Apple set it up on the Mac.
There is a free application called iExplorer for Mac that allows you to view and copy files from your iPhone.
Hope this helps.

When i plug my iphone into my computer the only thing that happens is i get to add my pics to my computer. Usually itunes would come up and i could do everything from there ie: sync etc. Does anyone know why or how I can get it to work?

Can anyone tell me why my phone wont sync when i plug it into the computer?

In iTunes there is a setting to automatically launch iTunes when the phone is connected.

You could just make sure the option that they talk about in this article is checked.

I can't access half of my downloaded music. I get a message, "can't locate file" What is up with that? I dauthorized my computer and reloaded itunes, but it did not solve the problem. Any suggestions? Thank you.

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

HT4623 I plugged my iphone into my computer and it said it cannot connect to itunes because it needed the 10.6.3. i went to the itunes website and tried to download it but it wont work and still says it will not connect to my iphone.

A message pops up on my computer telling me that I cannot connect my iphone because itunes needs to be updated and i have tried everything i can think of to update it but it still wont work

What version of Itunes do you have? Can you be a little more clear on what - Still wont work means? What happens when you connect the phone? What doesnt happen etc...
Try:
1) Unplug phone from computer.
2) update to itunes 10.7
3) reconnect phone to computer

I just bought an ipad and when I tried to update itunes ios and I pluged the ipad into my computer and opened itunes. It started to install and then said there was an error, now my ipad has a screen the has the usb cable and the itunes logo on the front

I can't open my ipad now. It is stuck with the picture of the usb cord and the itunes logo on the front.

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.
