BS of Death when connection iphone 3g on Vista32 with Itunes 8

I installed ITunes 8 - I was able to connect my 4g ipod ok but when I pluged in the Iphone 3g as it was installing the drivers I got a BSOD I removed IT8 and reinstalled and same problem. Contrary to popular beleif a BSOD is very rare. This is my first on this machine in 10 months of ownership - it was rare on XP as well!

This is really terrible. I too am getting the BSOD when connecting my iPhone (I have a 1st gen model). Apparently, it's affecting everyone upgrading to iTunes 8.0.0.35 on Windows Vista. Connecting the phone with or without iTunes running causes a BSOD. A message pops up and says it's the "usbaapl.sys" file or sometime. Now I'm really stuck as I can't even sync/restore/upgrade my iPhone.
I'd try to revert to iTunes 7.7.0.43 but I'm just too tired right now (it's after 10:30pm and I've been working on this problem since 5pm).
Holly cow. First no apps/music, with some ASOD (Apple-Logo Screen of Death) thrown in. Now this. Ugh! I'm going to sleep...

Getting the blue screen of death when connecting iphone

Hello,
Suddenly, for no apparent reason, my laptop to which I have synced my Iphone for over a year is crashing when connecting my phone to sync. I have a 3gs running OS 4.3 and Itunes is up to date. When I first got the phone, I had to disable the built in webcam on the laptop in order to prevent this same problem but it has been working fine since.
I have updated all the drivers but to no avail. Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks for any help!

Upgrade that Acer Aspire to a Mac. Guaranteed you'll never see a BSOD

My pc is not seeing my iPad when connected. It will sync with iTunes, but I can't download photos to my pc.

I am unable to copy photos from my iPad to my pc

iTunes has nothing to do with the importing of photos from the Camera Roll. Those are imported from the iPhone to the computer with Windows Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can also access it with Windows Explorer, select the phone in the list of removable drives or cameras and that will do it.
If Windows is not recognizing the iPhone connected to it, then you need to look at this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Follow instructions there to see if you can get Windows to recognize the phone is connected. The last step is to completely remove iTunes and reinstall it. To remove it in Windows, follow the instructions in this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925

Blue Screen of Death when Connecting iPhone

I have had no problems for the past two months connecting and syncing iPhone...now, the last few days, whenever I connect the iPhone, the monitor goes to the Blue Screen of Death and I have to reboot. I get the error message driverirql_not_less_orequal...and it also references a little further down the screen mxopswd.sys. Any thoughts?

DrMarsha,
Have you taken any photos with your iPhone? If so, you may be experiencing this issue:

After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 ota, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset! My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it .

After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 from 7.1 over the air, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network is active, or try again later. My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it, as well as an arrow pointing at the Itunes logo. After holding the sleep button down or even doing the hard reset the same screen comes up on my phone regardless of whether it is plugged in or not to my computer. I have turned my computer off and on again. It is plugged in and charging as it's battery life is very short. I also reset my modem and the same error message pops up. The only option on my computer when my phone is plugged in is to restore it. My firewall also allows Itunes through it. I have literally tried everything I know being someone who knows very little about technology. I also do not want to hear about how the update worked for other people. My phone has been in recovery mode for 5 hours at least now so it will just make me more frustrated if a bunch of people post about how the update worked for them.

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

When connecting iphone to computer iphoto always loads

When connecting iphone to my computer iphotos always loads on top. how do I stop iphotos from loading

When there are photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer. Although photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process, photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for these photos, and deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete will improve your iPhone's backup time. If you want any of the imported photos available on your iPhone for viewing, you can add the photos to an existing iPhoto album already selected to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync, or create a new iPhone album for the recently imported photos, select the new iPhoto album under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync.

ITunes freezes and doesn't respond when connecting iPhone 4

Well yesterday I had the two of the most common problems that a lot of people seem to be having with iTunes after the latest update- opening iTunes and not getting my iPhone 4 to be recognized. I solved the iTunes problem last night and iPhone is now being recognized on my computer but when I connect it to my computer iTunes automatically freezes and stops responding. When I disconnect it and restart iTunes it responds again and runs smoothly like nothing happened.
When it freezes beside "iTunes Store" it says "iPhone" and it seems like it freezes while it's trying to sync my phone. I've tried restarting my computer, leaving it connected before starting iTunes, waiting until iTunes comes up to connect it, but whatever I do iTunes just won't work with my iPhone connected. Any ideas on how to fix this?

ITunes freezes up when connect iPhone 6

iTunes 11.4 freezes up in y MacBook Pro when connect iPhone 6. I need to synchronize my info. Tks

I am running iTunes v12.1.1.14 on Windows 7 and I was experiencing the same problem. I found out that the issue started when uninstalling "iCloud". I do not want to use iCloud, but once I reinstalled it I could perfectly synchronize again. I hope this works out for some of you.

Whenever I connect iPhone 3GS to sync with Mac sync fails to open

Whenever I connect iPhone 3GS to sync with Mac sync fails to open. Brand new are there any upates I am unaware of?

"sync" fails to open? Do you mean, iTunes?
If you manually open iTunes, does your iPhone show up in the left column?
If so...
Click on your iPhone in the left column of iTunes.
Click on the "Summary" tab in the right colum of iTunes.
Scroll down to "Options"
Select "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected"
Apply
My apologies if I misunderstood the question.
