What does "the Apple Mobile Device service is not started" mean? I updated iTunes and I got this message when connecting my iPod Touch (2nd gen).
Never mind--I think I found the answer through other posts. Thanks!

I just updated to the latest version of itunes, n ow when I plug in my iphone, it says it cannot sync because "apple mobile device service is not started" this never happen before, what do I do??
The Apple Mobile Device Service is a part of sever programs that "help" iTunes on Windows. It may have been disabled in the Microsoft program, msconfig, or using a third party utility, such as CCleaner.
I would suggest trying to find and enable the service. To do so, click on the start button, click "run", and then type "msconfig" look for the iTunes Helper entry and make sure that it's enabled.
Additionally, there may be another service which you will have to enable. You can type something like "service.msc", (I'm not sure exactly) to see the "Services" control panel and look for it there.
If you can't find either, feel free to post here again.

Alternatively, you may see the following error when connecting your device:"This [device] cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device Service is not started."

Apple Mobile Device Service is Not Started error
While trying to backup my iPhone iTunes keeps giving me the error saying apple mobile device service is not started. After searching the support forums, reinstalling iTunes and manually starting the service i have found that the service stops when iTunes loads so manually starting it has no effect. I have attempted running it as administrator and as a new user with no success. I have also found that iTunes cannot connect to the iTunes store despite the fact other computers my house can and i have no problem getting online in a browser. Is there anything that i am missing? I am running Windows 7 64-Bit with iTunes 9.1.1.12 64-bit
When you reinstalled iTunes did you completely remove the other installation? Check this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. If you are not connecting, there is something else going on, especially if the service will not stay running. Try uninstalling completly before the reinstallation.
