Also im Klartext, iTunes (10.4) erkennt mein iPod(4.3.3) nicht.
(verzweifelte) Lösungsversuche:- Alle Komponenten von und mit itunes mehrmals neuinstallieren mit neustarts und registry cleanen.- itunes 10.3 nutzen: die mediathek ist nicht mehr mit 10.3 komaptibel- norton inet sec 2011 alle dienste deaktivieren- ordner Temp löschen- viele itunes support lösungsvorschläge- vieles mehr das mir garnicht mehr einfällt
Bitte helft mir ich will verdammt nochmal mein ipod synchrochnisieren oder muss ich auf 10.5 und mein iphone 5 warten !!!?!??????

Ich bin genau so vorgegangen und jetzt funktioniert alles wieder Super.
Durch Entfernen von iTunes und zugehörigen Komponenten aus der  Systemsteuerung sollten alle unterstützenden Dateien entfernt werden.  Nachdem Sie die vorherigen Schritte ausgeführt haben, sollten Sie sich  vergewissern, dass die folgenden Dateien und Ordner entfernt wurden.  Wenn sie auf dem Computer verblieben sind, entfernen Sie sie jetzt:
C:\Programme\Bonjour\
C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Apple\
C:\Programme\iTunes\
C:\Programme\iPod\

  • PLEASE HELP!!! My 'Apple mobile device helper has stopped working'!

    Today i bought the new 3G iPhone so i went online to download the new 7.7 iTunes software. Now when i go into my iTunes a Windows pop up appears telling me that my 'Apple mobile device helper has stopped working' and that it is diagnosing the problem. The thing is that it doesn't diagnose the problem, the same box just keeps popping up over and over again.
    I am not very computer literate and have tried everything that i can think of but nothing has worked.
    Please can someone help because i'm absolutely dying to use my new iPhone; i queued up from 6 am to get my hands on it! :0(

    I'm just a simple user. I don't know how to fix it any more than any of the other posters with this problem. I've looked around in control panel, done some poking and prodding with services and processes, and can't find a reasonable way to stop the messages without completely hosing up iTunes. I know the messages are annoying as ****, and nobody likes the idea, but sitting around and doing nothing is sometimes a whole lot better then doing something that makes it worse. See if you can find a document from Apple that tells you how to go back to the previous version of iTunes. I've seen that course of action mentioned several times for previous releases of iTunes upgrades, so the instructions for it must exist in another forum.
    I just think, from the number of posts, that Apple is going to have to get a fix out pretty quickly, because this error pretty much shuts down their products on the Windows platform. They can't afford to let it go on for very long.

  • Apple Mobile Device Helper Failed????!!!???

    I tried downloading the new itunes and the new software for 2.0 and downloaded both fine but now every time i start itunes i get a message saying apple mobile device helper has failed and it will not sync or recover my phone, my phone was bricked til i recovered it on my old computer, now it seems to be working ok, but i dont have any new software. Also my new computer can not run itunes because everytime i do run it i get a message saying the helper has failed every 20 seconds or so, i want to update everything on the new computer (with vista home premium if that matters)but dont want my phone to brick again, any suggestions? already tried reinstalling itunes, and i can get the message to stop if i uninstall the apple mobile device helper but then my phone will not sync, also i have the original 8gig if that matters, thanks in advance for any help

    You can go to "C" drive, Program Files, Common Files, Apple, Mobile Device Support, Bin and remove AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe file -- that will stop that message from poping up.

  • Apple Mobile Device Helper quits at startup-iTunes won't run.

    The last two times I have started my computer the Apple Mobile Device Helper suddenly quits and I can't open iTunes. I tried to download iTunes again but the download consistenly stopped up at 17%. I don't know what's wrong. iTunes worked fine yesterday. Please help!

    Okay, so the same thing is happening to me. I do not have a Mac.
    I uninstalled that Apple Device Mobile Support but I don't think that helped at all.
    I don't really know what I'm doing.
    Everything I plus in my iPhone it doesn't pop up in my iTunes.
    Please help!

  • I just bought a brand new Ipod touch but when I went to update it, a screen keeps popping up saying that the apple mobile device (recovery mode) was unable to install to my ipod and the ipod will keeps showing me the connect to itunes, what can I do?

    Otherwise com back with the exact wording of your error message. The one you gave does not seem correct.

  • Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) and frozen "Connect to iTunes" screen

    I have had my iPod Touch for about one year and have synced with my PC (XP) without incident during that time. Yesterday something happened while connecting with iTunes and I have not been able to find the solution on this board or others. Maybe the charge remaining in the iPod was insufficient. The iPod screen is frozen with the "Connect to iTunes" icon. I can turn it off (black screen) but as soon as it is attached to the PC or docked, the same icon reappears. I cannot make the red slider appear to shut it down.
    On the PC side, as soon as I attach the iPod, it wants to install the driver for "Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)". I have attempted to point it to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers find the driver, but what it wants is not there. I have completely uninstalled iTunes, Quicktime and related files; and reinstalled iTunes. I have tried every trick I can find in this forum and others to no avail. When the iPod is connected to the PC, the device manager shows Other Devices - Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) with a yellow question mark and exclamation point. This device shows twice. The Apple Mobile Device USB Driver shows under Universal Serial Bus Controllers and is working properly.
    I am at the end of my rope. I hope somebody that can help me will read this. Thanks.

    Hi
    I am experiencing the same problem as the person in the first thread as follows:
    "The iPod screen is frozen with the "Connect to iTunes" icon. I can turn it off (black screen) but as soon as it is attached to the PC or docked, the same icon reappears. I cannot make the red slider appear to shut it down.

    I have tried everything I can think of and have been advised to do on the Apple Support pages but this makes no difference.
    Please can someone offer a solution.

  • Apple Mobile Device Support uninstall and itunes install causes loss of internet connection

    Whenever I uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support (AMDS)  I lose my internet connection. The only way to fix this is to restore Windows to a previous state. I've tried  troubleshooting my internet connection when this happens but Windows tells me something is wrong with both my wired and wireless connection drivers... and of course I need the internet to fix said drivers :s
    I've tried repairing AMDS and this doesn't help either.
    I've been trying to download itunes but it tells me a program needed to install it cannot be run. After this I can't get back on the internet without first restoring windows to a previous state. I thought that uninstalling everything apple from my system would do the trick but I can't seem to uninstall AMDS without messing up my internet drivers. What else can I try?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • TS1567 apple mobile device help

    My iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes. I searched on how to fix this and I have to remove the apple mobile device. It told me to go to the services window and click apple mobile device and then click stop running. I go to the services window and the apple mobile device is not listed. What does that mean? What do I do to resolve the problem?

    See the Apple Mobile Device topic of:

  • Apple Mobile Device Helper has stopped working - stuck in loop

    I keep getting a message/check box (AppleMobileDeviceHelper has stopped working)whenever I load iTunes under Vista. If I don't click and respond, my task bar gets cluttered up with these messages - I don't know what to do short of uninstalling everything.
    Any ideas of what else I can do to stop this box from coming up, so that I can use iTunes normally?
    Thanks

    You could try uninstalling Apple Mobile Device support using add/remove programs. I tunes doesn't require it and will work without it. However if you need it, try doing a repair install of iTunes which will reinstall Apple Mobile Deviced support.
