Apple mobile device use all cpu

After I have updated to Itunes 10.5 apple MobileDevice use all my cpu,I tried to uninstall all apple programs and reinstall them but the problem appears again.
To uninstall and reinstall fixed the the same problem with itunes 10.4.
I hope someone is able to help me.

The CPU has been resolved after reading other posts:
From the command prompt, enter: netsh winsock reset
Then reboot computer.
My Sony Vaio runs faster, all Apple Mobile Device issues are gone, and iTune starts up instantly and syncs my iPad and iPod,
Funny thing is the guys at the Apple Store Genius Bar couldn't come up with this. In any case, hope this helps another reader.....

Apple mobile device service 50% Cpu

Since loading ITunes 10.5 on my Windows XP PC . . . every time I try to since my IPad or iPhone, AppleMobileDeviceService and MDCrashReportTool "take over my PC".
The CPU usage goes to 100% and stays there.
I have to manually shut down the PC - when I bring it up WITHOUT STARTING ITUNES, CPU usages goes back to 50%.
I've re-downloaded iTunes several times.
Nothing helps.

Stop automatically installing Apple Mobile Device Support all the time

I don't have an iPhone. I'm not planning on getting an iPhone so basically the Apple Mobile Device Support software is a waste of memory and hard disk space. Yet every time I upgrade iTunes it get's installed and I have to go an uninstall it again. You think it would get the hint.
If you must install this as part of iTunes please make it an option. It takes a long time to install and remove and I'd rather it just not install in the first place.

Yes, make this apple mobile device support an option when upgrading iTunes. This is a waste of memory and disk space for those of us who don't have an iPhone.

Itunes "apple mobile device" will not work or install

Recently my computer has being doing some strange things. I have used iTunes on my Windows 7 computer for many months and several years on other computers without incident but recently my iTunes fails to detect my iphone 4gs. I have read some of the posts about manually restarting the Apple Mobile Device but all attempts had failed so I uninstalled all of iTunes. But now when i try to install iTunes again the message:
"Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Verify that you have specific privileges to start system services"
appears everytime with only the options : "abort" , "retry" and "ignore"
If I click abort the installer does not finish, if i click retry the same message appears and if i click ignore the installer does not install everything. i am the administrator of my computer so i am confused as to why it asks me about my priveleges and iTunes has never had any problems such as this on my computer.
Please help me resolve this issue as i am desperate to find an answer
PS. Also before this problem occured i noticed that my itunes kept failing to update when it asked me to. i do not remember the specific message but it was something to with the update not installing/downloading properly

I am Having Exactly the problems running win 7 I have installed / uninstalled rebooted clead reg the lot 5 times as ****. I have wasted many hours on this.

Apple mobile device service uses too much cpu time

Apple mobile device service uses too much cpu time, from 88% to 99% of the CPU time.

The best way to fix this is to completely remove all aspects of iTunes then reinstall. Step by step directions are on this article. Good luck

Apple mobile device exe used excessive CPU

I am running iTunes on Windows 7 32 bits and as sson as I open Itunes, Apple Mobile Device exe. will start to use up to 50% of my CPU. Even when I have closed iTunes this contnues. Is there a fif for this since it will of course mean that all other processes will be slowed down and that the heat from the CPU finally will lower the life of my lap op.

You can try looking at some of the previous posts on the right under the heading "More Like This" with your same problem.

On my registered iTunes computer, the following message appears every time one plugs in a device and refuses to load said device to be synced: "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". They are all registered. Help

On my registered iTunes computer, the following message appears every time one plugs in a device and refuses to load said device to be synced: "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". Each device has been registered onto this account and this computer, and all have worked finely in the past. I am so confused as to why now seemingly without reason, none of our apple devices (one iPod, two iPhones) are allowed to have music and other material downloaded onto them. Also, as a side note, they still are charged by plugging them into the computer, however they do not even show up on the left-hand sidebar in iTunes.
It should also be noted that for my iPhone it does not allow for the new update software to be uploaded; it just says that an error has occurred, nothing more.

Erased all content on 3G but now won't sync with iTunes. Error states, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." I don't want phone service on this old 3G. Just want to use it as an iTouch. Any suggestions?

Type "Apple Mobile Device service " into the search bar at the top of this page by "Support"

The iTune cannot detect my iPhone. I have already tried all methods suggested, including re-installling iTune, re-activating Apple Mobile Device, plugging in various USB ports, and etc. I use windows 7. How can I solve this?

The iTune cannot detect my iPhone 4S. I have already tried all methods suggested, including re-installling iTune, re-activating Apple Mobile Device, plugging in various USB ports, and etc. I use windows 7. How can I solve this?

The new cable is completely new, and my computer can detect the phone as a drive, and battery charging is ok. So I believe the USB cable works properly. It is so weird that just iTune itself cannot detect the phone, and it is of the most updated version. What else can I do? Thanks.

After syncing with iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Support uses 83-99% of CPU

After syncing with iTunes 10.4.0.80, everything becomes very slow on my XP Home PC with 2G RAM. Apple Mobile Device is reported as using 83-99% of the CPU cycles. Shutting down and restarting Apple Mobile Device solves the problem and reduces CPU cycles to 0%. (I have written a small batch program to stop and restart the Apple Mobile Device to achieve this.) Does anyone have any thoughts about why the Apple Mobile Device process won't release when the sync is finished?

i deleted itunes and mobile support and now when i reinstall itunes the mobile support does not come back with it as when it tries to install that it just says rolling back after it is almost done
The AMDS install roll-back (on XP) can be caused by old driver componentry "stuck" in the bowels of your OS. If that's what is going on, we can get past this ... but I'm afraid it's a bit of a performance.
First, go into "My Computer". Go "Tools > Folder Options". Go to the view tab.
Make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is selected.
Make sure "Hide extensions for known filetypes" is unchecked.
Make sure "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in "My Computer", open "Local Disk C:" or whichever drive your Operating System is installed on.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
Open the "DRVSTORE" folder.
In there look to see if you have either of the following two folders:
netaapl_(LongStringOfNumbers)
usbaapl_(LongStringOfNumbers)
If you find either of them, drag them out onto the desktop. (Don't touch any other files or folders you see in there.)
Now go back into the "system32" directory.
Open the "Drivers" directory.
Look for either of the following two files:
netaapl.sys
usbaapl.sys
If you see either of them in there, drag them out onto the desktop. (Again, don't touch any other files or folders you see in there.)
Now restart the PC. Uninstall iTunes again, and then try reinstalling it again. Does Apple Mobile Device Support install this time?

I keep getting an error message when I plug my iPhone into my computer. It says, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device has not been started." This has never happened before when I plugged it in - now the iPhone won't show up at all.

Someone please help! I do not know how to fix this. It keeps saying my Mobile Device has not been started and I can't get my phone to show up in the iTunes window AT ALL. It will charge while plugged in, but it just won't come up in iTunes.

Sorry, the error message should read, "...the Apple Mobile Device service has not been started."

All of a sudden when I plug my ipod touch into my computer, it tells me that "ipod can not be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started" Any ideas?

I recently installed icloud on my computer, and now when I plug in my ipod touch it tells me "ipod can not be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started". I can not find anything on my computer or my touch that seems to have anything to do with it. Anybody have any suggestions?

I'd start with the following document with that one:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows

Trying to setup my iPad - get message "This iPad cannot be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started." What does this mean? I am unable to get any connection at all..

Apple Mobile devices and Itunes is taking up 100% of my CPU and I can not get to the Itunes music store on 10.5

I have installed the 10.5 version of the Apple Itunes app. Now when I bring it up it takes up one whole CPU and my other CPU is used up by Apple Mobile devices. I am using Windows XP Service Pack 2. I have tried uninstalling all Apple products and reinstalling them but with no luck. Please if anyone has any advice I am all ears...

Thanks, Andrew for your help. Not sure if you will see this, but I did the above and it said the HD was okay. Rebooted it and still won't go past login page. Tried it again and this time typed in the line /sbin/fsck -fy and then it came up and said HD was okay, but said something about being modified. I once more rebooted, but it still won't get past the login screen. Besides taking long to reboot, as before, I am able to enter my password, but then it hangs up with the rainbow icon rotating continuously. Does this mean that the disk is corrupt or partially so, and if so, can you advise how I should proceed? TIA again.
