HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!BOB we need you urgently
Perhaps Bob will see this thread, he is the professor in these cases.
You do not use a WEP password but wpa/wpa2 on router and equipment.
All equipment connects to WiFi, but for your iPad.
Even with all other equipment WiFi off, you cannot connect your iPad.
Your iPad connects to other WiFi nets correctly.
All resets etc done on iPad and Router.
Still I am not sure it is your router for sure, frustrating...
I want to test 2 other things:
1. in your iPad, set everything OFF in Settings/Cellular, turn off/then/on your WiFi, and see whether it will still not connect...
2. If that does not do it: disconnect the router as well as the modem from the power, for 15 seconds, then reconnect the modem, let it fully start, then reconnect the routet let it fully start, turn of your WiFi in iPad, then on, and see whether it will connect. -

Itunes automatically open when plugging in iphone
Before installing Lion iTunes would automaticall open when I plugged in our iPhone or iPad to the Macbook. Now it does not. I have the "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" box checked. What next?

Hi--so the other day, everything was working fine--when I plugged in my iphone 4, itunes opened, it synced, everything was great. I haven't yet put any music on the phone. Today, I was finally going to put music on the phone. I plugged it in and only iphoto opened. Itunes does not open automatically with plugging in the iphone, and when I open itunes, the phone doesn't show up. I've tried resetting both the phone and the computer, and have tried unplugging/re-plugging in the phone.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much in advance.
Just to cover all of your bases, are you sure that the USB cable is working and plugged into a proper USB location? I'd plug it directly into the USB port on your MacBook, not into a USB Hub.
Also, go to your Apple Menu after you connected your iPhone, open up "About this Mac." Then click on More Info. Click on USB on "contents". Your iPhone should show up in the USB list as "iPhone."
If you don't see it, there might be an issue with your USB cable or port. Just get the USB cable replaced. If it's the port, then that's outside of my skill set, but I'd make an Apple Genius appointment to fix it. If you see your iPhone, then the cable is fine, and your issue is probably with iTunes.
Go to iTunes, Preferences, then click on Devices button. Make sure that the Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing is not checked.
These are the basic things. If we can't make it work, then post back here, and someone will reply with the next thing to do. -
Open iTunes when iPhone/Pad connected not working
iTunes recently quit auto opening when I connect my iPhone or iPad. I'm not sure exactly when it started happening, but I'm guessing it was after a recent iTunes or other software update.
The Prevent ipad etc from syncing box under iTunes -> Preferences -> Devices -> is UNchecked.
and the Open iTunes when this iPad/Phone is Connected box in the device summery section is checked.
I do have iTunes helper in my login items.
I've searched help and troubleshooting and can't find anything to help.
Any help here?I'm having the same issue. Just started recently. I don't see any suggestions for how to fix it. Do you?

Open itunes when this iphone is connected is grayed out
Did a search for this and could not find any resolutions.
For some reason when I connect my iPhone, it automatically opens itunes and starts synching. I have never had it set up to do so, as I want to be able to do it when I have time.
But I can not stop this from happening. In the summary tab of my iPhone when connected to iTunes the "Open itunes when this phone is connected" selection is grayed out.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem from anyone?Found a solution....
Open iTunes-Preferences-Devices- then uncheck "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically". select OK.
Now you have the option to uncheck the 'Open iTunes when iPhone is plugged in'.
You can also go back and re-check "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" without the problem re-occurring. -
Can't select "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" in iTunes.
iTunes wouldn't launch when I plugged the phone into my laptop. I opened iTunes manually & the option to "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" is now grayed out. How can I re-select that option?
Yes,.. Open iTunes-Preferences-Devices- then uncheck "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically". select OK. Done!

"Open iTunes when this iPhone is attached" is grayed out
Hey gang-
On my iPhone running OS 3.1.2 and iTunes 9.0, "Open iTunes when this iPod is attached" is grayed out. Any reason this would be?
Thanks!
DaveEdit > preferences > Devices > Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods, check in that box?
That should make the option you want available and then you can disable the auto-syncing again if you want. -
Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected
So; i finaly got to update my Mac to 10.6.5. Following a update of iTunes to 10.1. A few days after i recieved my iPhone 4 and updated that one directly from the box to 4.2.1.
The "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" are checked.
Prefs->Devices "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads fro.." are NOT checked.
And still iTunes don't start when i plug inn my iPhone. Anyone knows if there are there any fixes for this?launch *Activity Monitor* and look for a process called iTunesHelper.
iTunesHelper or iTunes Helper, is a program from Apple that runs in the background and monitors for the connection of any iPod or iPhone to the computer
if that process is not present, try *removing iTunes completely* (click here and follow the instructions), then reinstall it using the standalone installer from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.
note this will not touch your media files, playlists, ratings, etc.

when i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs. Take in mind this is my first time to sync with this laptop(HP 15 ENVY) and as well my laptop is just brand new. just got it a week ago. so how do i fix this prob. and also when i open my itunes store and then view my account it says error occurred either debug it through Microsoft visual studio or close program. I tired copying all the .dll files to the itunes folder didn't help
I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it. See if this support document helps you out. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535

"I bought it a couple of weeks ago"
Bought it from where? I ask because given what you have already tried, it would appear that this iPod needs either service or exchanging for another one.
Did you buy this as new from a reputable source? -
I restored my pc and now it won't open itunes, when i try to, it reads " this version of itunes has not been correctly localized for this language. please run the english version." how do i fix this so i can open my itunes and back up my iphone?
Hey KEBENNETT,
It sounds like you've restored Windows on your PC and iTunes is no longer opening and running normally.
I'd recommend using the instructions found at step 4 and 5 in this article to repair or remove/reinstall your iTunes installation:
