Apple Mobile Devices Support USB Driver issue
While I am aware this is a somewhat common problem, I have already followed all suggested routes I've seen for fixing it, and none have worked. My computer seems unable to detect my iPhone at all, and seems to fail to install the AMDS USB Driver (though all other elements of iTunes appear to install correctly.
Here is some relevant information to help troubleshooting.
I have already stopped and restarted AMDS and enabled automatic startup (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567)
I have already uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and related services (Including AMDS) (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923)
I have tested all relevant hardware, including the iPhone itself, the connecting cable, and the USB ports that I've used, and all are functioning correctly (The iPhone can connect to other computers using the same cable, the computer can connect to other devices using the same USB ports)
I have the newest version of iTunes available (11.1.5)
While Apple Mobile Devices Support is installed, the USB Driver associated with it does not appear in the device manager. I have checked all folders in the device manager, including (but not limited to) Imaging Devices, Portable Devices, and Universal Serial Bus Controllers.
There are no "Unknown Device" entries in the Device Manager
My operating system is WIndows 7
Both before and after reinstalling iTunes completely, Windows is unable to detect the iPhone in any obvious way (My Computer screen, Device Manager, etc). The USB driver for Apple Mobile Device Support is not disabled, but rather does not appear at all.
What could be the cause of this problem? Is there a way to install the USB driver by itself without installing/reinstalling the related iTunes applications?
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
really? so apple.com arent checked by those who work on apple improvements? that would be kinda stupid im my ears. some comments here have an answer from ppl with an apple symbol, "specialists" they call them self. need some respons from them maybe.
i have tried everything, worked fine before the latest patch, so why cant it be a driver bug? they are humans too, they who make drivers. they just have to admit they had done something bad here, and solve it fast.
can i download an old itunes or something so i can atleast send my photos over.
the PC dont even say "couldn't install driver" or what it says in english, nothing happends at all. the drivers are there.

I do not have the Driver folder in this folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support like it says I should and my Apple Iphone appears in Portable Devices only, not in Universal devices. I tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it. My Iphone is still not recognized by Itunes when I plug it in. I can see my photos in the internal storage folder on my Windows 7 system though. So I know my PC sees the device. The Iphoneis an Iphone 4 with IOS 6 installed. It was working fine until I had to reinstall my Windows system. Now Itunes does not see it. I've uninstalled Itunes and reinstalled it (64bit) to no avail. Where is the Driver folder article TS1538 talks about?
Sorry I missed your post. Anyone else with the same issue should find useful resources at Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

Apple Mobile Device Support will not install! Any answers re rollback issue?
Hi,
Im running Windows 32bit and trying to install the latest Itunes version 10.5.1.42 after a few attempts i have managed to install all of it apart form Application Modbile Device Support (AMDS), therefore meaning that i can not sync with my new Iphone.
Essentialy when it gets to installing AMDS it rolbacks. It can create the folders ok and but does not copy any drivers into the folders. All the other Apple folders in common files directory are ok and populated and work. I tunes work - just doesnt let me connect my phone as AMDS is empty.
I have noticed a few threads regarding this issue over the years and tried lots of the suggestions:
completely uninstalling Itunes and all traces of associated apple products. Manually removing residual files. Done this lots and lots of times, Itunes etc will install, AMDS will not
checked various permissions
Ensured Windows updates are all up to date
Removed other mobile phone software
changed msconfig settings
Im just going around in circles now. I cant bear the thought of running thorugh another uninstall of Itunes and ten watching it install again only to see the roll back bar appear and reverse!
Any idea people?For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Mobile Device Support, won't install normally.
In your case I suggest you start with a clean download of the setup file using the direct link. If reinstalling AMDS alone doesn't work try tearing everything down again.
If that fails try the advice on rolling back to the last build of iTunes that worked for you.

Apple Mobile Device Support issues
When I plugged in my iPod, it said my Apple Mobile Device Support needs to be updated, and I would need to "uninstall iTunes and Apple Mobile Device Support, and reinstall iTunes" in order for it to work. I uninstalled iTunes and it did not work when I reinstalled. When I tried to uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support, it told me there was a "fatal error" and the uninstallation was unsuccessful. So I found a support page on here that gave me a list of what to uninstall in order, and I did, but it still would not uninstall Mobile Device Support. No matter what I try, Apple Mobile Device Support will not uninstall and everything I try will not allow my iPod to connect to iTunes, resulting in it telling me to uninstall and reinstall which is impossible! Any help?
I uninstalled iTunes and it did not work when I reinstalled. When I tried to uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support, it told me there was a "fatal error" and the uninstallation was unsuccessful.
That can sometimes relate to damage to HKEYCURRENTUSER registry keys in your usual user account.
Create a new user account on your PC with full administrative rights. Log out of your usual account and log into the new account. (Don't use fast user switching to move between accounts.)
In the new user account attempt again to uninstall and reinstall iTunes and related components as per:
[Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925]
(You didn't tell us what operating system you are using ... if it's not XP, follow the link in the article to equivalent instructions for Vista/7.)
If you successfully manage to uninstall/reinstall iTunes/AMDS etc in the new account, log out of that account, and log back into your usual account. Does iTunes launch without the error message now? -
ITunes 8.2 Apple Mobile Device Support does not install
I am unable to complete the full 8.2 install on my machine - the AMDS component fails to install, although the rest of the packages go in successfully. Unfortunately, without AMDS, I can't sync' my iPhone 3G, nor my iPod.
Having broken out the AMDS package from the 8.2 installer .exe, and tried to run it separately from the command line with logging enabled, the error appears to occur while trying to install the USB drivers themselves - the relevant lines are inserted here:
DIFXAPP: INFO: ENTER: DriverPackageInstallW

Action 21:16:25: Rollback. Rolling back action:
Rollback: MsiInstallDrivers

I'm unable to break open the .msi fully because it is apparently 'corrupt', although that doesn't seem to stop Windows having a go. That said, the little that I can peer into it, the relevant .INF file mentioned in the log appears to be zero length.
Backing out the full install and downgrading to 8.1.1 seems to work fine, except that now MobileMe won't work because it's keyed to iTunes 8.2!!
Has anyone else seen this problem? Has anyone else got a valid AMDS .msi file I can try?!
Thanks,
ANdyMaybe a little bit of forum necromancy going on here, but I thought it was worth posting for W7 RC users. aclc's post got me thinking about this tonight when I had issues updating my iTunes, and after some hard work investigating the issue, I figured out what has to happen. Basically aclc is exactly right with the root of the issue - I'm simply expanding the idea to involve instructions for those who can't afford to or won't be bothered with finding out the details of the solution.
Please note that these instructions were written assuming you are using an administrator-level account on a 64-bit Windows 7 Release Client installation, but should help 32-bit users if they have the same experience - I have not tried this solution on a 32-bit box. This fix has been administered using iTunes 9, so I have personally verified this will work with that version of iTunes.
iTunes 9 issue: iTunes requesting that you uninstall and reinstall for Apple Mobile Support after trying to install iTunes 9 on Windows 7 RC x64
Resolution:
By now you've already gone through the failed install on Apple Software Update, and may or may not have manually downloaded iTunes...I'm going to start from the beginning for the benefit of anyone who doesn't want to waste the hour and a half that I did to figure this one out (actually i detoured to read up on a few things for most of that time to feed my inner nerd, but I digress). Plus, this should help with retail Windows 7 users (provided Apple and MS haven't worked this out amongst themselves).
1 - TURN OFF UAC
a) Hit Windows Key + R to open the Run command box, type "msconfig", and hit enter or click OK.
b) Go to the Tools tab, highlight Change UAC Settings and click the Launch button.
c) Move the slider all the way down to the bottom to turn off UAC.
d) Reboot your PC for the changes to UAC to take effect.
2 - INSTALL iTUNES AND APPLE MOBILE SUPPORT THE RIGHT WAY (A.K.A. NOT LIKE THE INSTALLER TRIES TO)
a) In Apple Software Update, go to Tools | Open Downloaded Updates Folder... (if already downloaded and the installation has failed)
-or-
Use the Download and Install Manually feature of the Tools menu (if you have not already tried to install via Apple Software Update)
b) Locate the iTunes installer and the Apple Mobile Software Update installer. For me they were called:
iTunes64.msi
AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi
c) Right-click one of the files identified in 2a. Select Properties, and go to the Compatibility tab. Check the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" box and select "Previous Versions of Windows". Click Apply. Repeat for the other file in Step 2a.
d) Run the Apple Mobile Device Support installer identified in 2a. With UAC and compatibility mode both turned off, you should have a clean install.
e) IF YOU HAVE ALREADY INSTALLED iTUNES AND GOTTEN THE MESSAGE THAT YOUR MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORT IS NOT COMPATIBLE, DON'T PANIC - HERE'S THE FIX: Right-click the iTunes installer identified in 2a and select Repair. You should see a progress bar but will not have to go through a full install. Voila! Open iTunes, plug in your iPhone, and you should be good to go.
IF YOU HAVE NOT YET ATTEMPTED TO INSTALL iTUNES, simply run the installer for iTunes identified in 2a.
There you have it - this should do it for you and save someone the aggravation of figuring this out on their own.
Don't forget to turn UAC back on if you need/want it on.
Hope this helps!!
~NB
PnT forever.

Apple Mobile Device Support won't install, keeps rolling back..
I'm using Windows 7 64bit and i have everything updated. Since I've upgraded my iTunes to version 10.1, I can't sync my iPod Touch with it anymore.
Each time I plug my iPod in,
- the iPod could be detected by windows but not iTunes, and I keep getting the same error message " "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64bit version of iTunes""
- my iPod shows up as "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" in devices and printers
After searching through the internet, I've tried many fixes but none of them worked. I've tried,
- downloading the latest iTunes and uninstalling it and reinstalling it again and again
- uninstalling step by step and completely removed everything as guided by this website (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923)
- extracting the AMDS MSI file from the iTunes64setup and run it separately
- copying the registry files and the whole Apple Mobile Device Support folder from a Vista machine as recommended in some websites
- creating a new user account with admin rights and reinstalling iTunes again after completely removing everything
I've read a post (http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2531860) in which the user encounters a similar problem as well, and apparently the user solved this problem by replacing the files in C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\netaapl64.infamd64_neutral26aa9fb28983e9b5
C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\usbaapl64.infamd64_neutral36363f69e6e22c1b
with files he had extracted from the CAB files within the AMDS MSI installer from the iTunes64Setup download.
But the problem is, whenever I try to extract the netaap164 and usbaap164 files from the AMDS MSI installer, using WinRAR, it says that the archive is corrupted and thus I won't be able to extract these files out.
Can anyone give me any suggestions or teach me what to do? I'm really stucked and lost now. Thanks in advance. =)After a couple days searching the internet for a solution I pieced togetherwhat my problem was from several forums and fixed it; maybe my solution/problemis similar to all of yours. (NOTE: I’m running Windows XP Professional, 32-bit,with Service Pack 3 – so you’ll have to translate my issue into your Windows 7format because I have no idea how to operate things is that version of Windows.)
I traced the error to the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver under"Universal Serial Bus Controllers" as others have too (everything inthe iTunes installation would install perfectly well except for Apple MobileDevice Support). However, my problem wasn't with the driver itself -- I had amissing .dll file on my computer for the Hardware Update Wizard (whenever Iwould 'right click’ any USB driver and select "Update", HardwareUpdate Wizard would not open; nothing would happen).
So, I went searching for this problem next, and I found this website: http://kf.livejournal.com/208963.html?view=2699587#t2699587
The page suggests that the problem is a missing .dll file called “newdev.dll”that should be located in “C:\WINDOWS\system32\” (again, I don’t know theequivalent folder for Windows 7, so someone else will need to find out where “newdev.dll”belongs) – I did a search of the .dll file on my computer and found it missing.However, I found another copy of it on my computer using “Seach Everything” (foundhere: http://download.cnet.com/Everything/3000-2379_4-10890746.html)– but, you can also use the Windows Search tool. There were copies located in “C:\Windows\system32\dllcache”and “C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386”. (I would suggest searching for itrather than locating it manually in Explorer in case its in a hidden folder.)
I copied one of the preexisting files of “newdev.dll” and pasted it into “C:\WINDOWS\system32\”.Then I tried re-installing Apple Mobile Device Support and it worked (norolling back installation). When I plugged my iPhone back into my USB “AppleMobile Device USB Driver” reappeared under “Universal Serial Bus controllers”in “Computer Management” – all I had to do was “Enable” it again and I hadaccess to my iPhone in iTunes again.
Also, I had copied a preexisting file of AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi to mydesktop prior to uninstalling everything, so when I tried to reinstall iTunesand Apple Mobile Device Support failed to install all I had to do later when Ifound the solution was reinstall AMDS. If you do not have a copy of “AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi”try completely uninstalling everything (like so many other forums suggest, asdoes Apple, here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925),and reinstall iTunes with the Hardware Update Wizard .dll file replaced. (I can’tsay if this entire reinstallation will work since I only had to install AMDS.)
Hope my problem was your problem as well. -

MSI (c) (10:8C) 08:22:03:595: Product: Apple Mobile Device Support -- Installation failed.
now i went to the directory where the driverfiles should be, and paused the installation just before it starts rolling back and made a copy of the whole thing, the driver files are being extracted, and thinking it may have failed to find them, i restarted the installation and paused it after it extracted the files, copied over my backup files to where they should be, and resumed, same thing happened, failure again.
I stopped all the services running, (msconfig / startup and services) and that still did not help, i went through my registry for every "apple" and deleted it, after uninstalling all apple products, that did not help, i ran windows install clean up and made sure that quicktime and itunes and apple updatea re not installed, did the whole thing again, no luck.......
Can someone please tell me what is going on, i can run it just fine on my other machine, which is running windows xp pro as well, the only thing different i did on this one was that i plugged in the Iphone before installing the software, whereas i ran the itunes installer on that one before i plugged in the iphone, and yes, i did get the iphone driver as a camera at first, and i changed it later by pointing the update driver to the same directory where applemobiledevicesupport extracted the 3 driver files :
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
and the files are usbaapl.cat , usbaapl.inf, and usbaapl.sys
please look into this issue, i've done everything i could think of,
Thank you.

MSI (c) (10:8C) [08:22:03:595]: Product: Apple Mobile Device Support -- Installation failed.
now i went to the directory where the driverfiles should be, and paused the installation just before it starts rolling back and made a copy of the whole thing, the driver files are being extracted, and thinking it may have failed to find them, i restarted the installation and paused it after it extracted the files, copied over my backup files to where they should be, and resumed, same thing happened, failure again.
I stopped all the services running, (msconfig / startup and services) and that still did not help, i went through my registry for every "apple" and deleted it, after uninstalling all apple products, that did not help, i ran windows install clean up and made sure that quicktime and itunes and apple updatea re not installed, did the whole thing again, no luck.......
Can someone please tell me what is going on, i can run it just fine on my other machine, which is running windows xp pro as well, the only thing different i did on this one was that i plugged in the Iphone before installing the software, whereas i ran the itunes installer on that one before i plugged in the iphone, and yes, i did get the iphone driver as a camera at first, and i changed it later by pointing the update driver to the same directory where applemobiledevicesupport extracted the 3 driver files :
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
and the files are usbaapl.cat , usbaapl.inf, and usbaapl.sys
please look into this issue, i've done everything i could think of,
Thank you.I have the exact same problem on my workstation and previously solved it by installing iTunes on a different computer and copying all the files and registry keys to my workstation. However, it didn't solve the problem when i tried to update to itunes 7.6 ...
Is there any solution yet? -
Apple mobile device support install/uninstall sets my wireless to limited access
Dell Pavilion dv7
Windows 7 64 bit.
Current itunes 10.4
When installing itunes 10.5, my wireless connection changed to limited access. I can not connect to the internet with wireless. If I put my ethernet cable in, i can connect to the internet through the ethernet cable.
I found no solutions to fix the limited access issue. So, i had to restore my system. After the restore my wireless connection could connect to the internet again.
But now itunes does not work. One of two messages come up. The latest (i have done several system restores). Either quicktime was not found or something about iTunes Library.itl is out of synch with the current version of itunes.
Now i decide to uninstall all the itunes installed products one at a time. Itunes, quicktime, Apple software update, Apple mobile device support and there it goes, my wireless connection changes to limited access again.
Any help would be great.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.) -
Windows 7 - apple mobile device support DOESN'T INSTALL
Well, trying to get iTunes running on my windows 7 box, seems that everything installs except for Apple Mobile Device Support which needs to be there in order for iTunes to recognize the iPhone... and it is also required by the MobileMe application or it too won't install. I've followed Apple's support article HT1923 about 20 times, but still no luck... anyone get a 32bit version of iTunes working after a similar problem?
I am having similar problems with iPhone 3G on Win7 x64. Prior to installing iTunes, Win7 Device Stage recognized the iPhone, but after installing iTunes (x64) latest version (9.0.1.8), all that shows up is "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver".
iTunes seems to recognize the phone still, but other windows programs which had previously been able to connect to the phone (e.g Picasa sync photos) can no longer do so.
Reinstall of itunes, all apple software does not seem to help.
What is wrong? The apple mobile device support driver seems suspect to me... -
Why does AMDS (apple mobile device support) not install?
I run iTunes on a new (3 months old) Windows 7 PC using version 10.6 (64-bit) of iTunes. I have been using iTunes for many years (or various machines) without any problems. Recently iTunes stopped working correctly.... I got numerous error messages when loading the software, and could not sync any of my devices. I went through every tutorial/help/troubleshooting I could find and nothing worked. I had to restort to the "last resort" option of completely removing iTunes (which I did by carefully following all of the steps in the Apple Support) and reinstall iTunes. After reinstalling and pluggin my iPhone or iPod Touch I get a message saying, "This iPhone/iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes."
Again, I went through every tutorial/help/support/troubleshooting option and discovered that AMDS (apple mobile device support) is missing. None of the support articles addresses this issue (only how to turn it on, locate files on your computer, etc.) but I tried them all anyway. Nothing worked. I removed an reinstalled iTunes 3 more times. No change. AMDS is still not there. It does not even exist on my system anywhere. It doesn't seem to be downloading at all. I contacted customer support and was just given links to all of the troubleshooting articles I had already tried.
I have spent many hours on this and I'm getting no where. Please help!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.

I have just installed the new version of itune (11.1) and it keeps coming up with this message. "itunes requires a newer version of apple mobile device support. Please uninstall both apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall itunes." I have done this step 3 times, while following the support steps on how to fully remove all itunes and related programs. I keep getting the same issue.
Also, my computer recognizes my phone but itunes wont. When I try to do a driver update according to the support page it keeps telling me that "The folder specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with windows x64- based systems." On the support page it also suggests trying an alternate folder (program files(x86)/common files/ apple/ mobile device software/ drivers) That doesn't work either.
I am getting extremely frustrated.... Can someone PLEASE help!!!!
I also just upgraded my phone from and iphone4 to an iphone 5c.many thanks. That's also useful to know.

ITunes 9.1: Apple Mobile Device Support failure
iTunes was working fine for my on my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit laptop since I got my iPhone in November, including though all updates until 9.1. Using the standard Apple Update program, I chose to update iTunes and Quicktime. It downloaded the files and started the installation process. I initially did not watch all the process of the installation, but I was not given any errors upon completion. I then plugged in my iPhone and a message popped up that "Apple Mobile Device Support" was outdated and I needed to uninstall both Apple Mobile Device Support (I'll refer to it as AMDS for short) and iTunes and then re-install iTunes. I attempted to uninstall AMDS and it failed to uninstall. iTunes uninstalled without an issue. I finally used a program called "Perfect Uninstaller" to uninstall AMDS and clean the registry of its presence. It was finally gone. After a reboot, I tried to install iTunes again. This time, I watched the installation process. At one point, the progress bar went backwards as it "rolled back changes". It then proceeded to install other stuff. I again got no errors or notifications that there was any failure in installation, yet AMDS did not install... apparently the process that rolled backwards. I saw some support give an order of uninstall, so I uninstalled iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Bonjour and then Apple Application Support. I again rebooted and attempted re-install of iTunes. Still no AMDS. I found the location Apple Software Update had stored files and attempted to run AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi. This went through the installation process and ended up failing... not giving a reason for failure, just that it failed. I then cleared as much as I could find other than my music and applications library of all Apple software. I still get failure after failure... but only AMDS is failing to install. Any ideas?
I realize I've not gotten a response, but in case someone is silently observing the issues I've been facing, I was looking through my log file more (thousands of lines) and think that giving a larger view of the log may help...
