  • IPod Touch - Apple Mobile Device not started

    Hi Guys! I have recently received an iPod Touch and it won't connect to my computer. I have tried everything!! When the iPod is connected and I open iTunes it comes up with a box saying the Apple Mobile Device service is not started but then when i go into "services" to start the Apple Mobile Device it then comes up with another box saying "The Apple Mobile Device on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."
    How do I obtain use by other services or programs when it is not registering as a device on my computer??
    I have no idea what to do now!! HELP!!
    I have tried restoring default setting on my firewall and uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and all related programs but nothing has seemed to work.
    Cheers!!

    Thanks for the reply but i have already tried this. When i went to stop it to then restart it it didn't have a stop option because it was already stopped so i clicked on start and it wouldn't start :S

  • HT201272 I would like to download previous itune purchases on my I-Phone 4.  Everytime I plug my phone into the computer it says apple mobile device not started.  How do I fix this?

    I want to download my previous purchases from my computer to my IPhone 4.  Everytime I plug my phone into my computer it says Apple mobile devices service is not started.  How do I fix this?

    Hello EFierro79,
    I find it easiest to download my purchases directly to my iPhone.  You don't even need to connect your iPhone to iTunes.  As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the items, you will not be charged.
    You can find the steps to do this under the section titled "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on iOS" in the following article:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    Additionally, you can follow the steps in the article below to resolve the error "This [device] cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device Service is not started."

    Iceman50,
    Apple Mobile Device is a background service that helps iTunes communicate with the iPhone or iPod Touch.
    This article discusses how to restart it:

    When I try to sync my ipod with itunes I get an error message which tells me Apple mobile device is not started.

    "itunes could not connect with the itunes store. An unknown error occurred (11556)."
    This error is associated with ringtones, are you trying to sync a ringtone, purchase a ringtone...need more info...
    I have also an error message saying it cannot sync and error message number 0050.
    Are you on Windows XP? Is this the error message...iTunes displays -50 error message? If so, follow these directions:

  • Unable to Synch - "Apple Mobile Device Not Started"

    I am trying to synch my iPhone and my iPad to iTunes.  I connect to the computer and open iTunes.  I get a message that says: "The iPhone (or iPad - I get the same message with either device) cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device is not started."
    I have successfully synched both my iPhone and my iPad to iTunes lots of times before.  I never got this message before.  Of course, when that message comes up, it's game over - iTunes will not recognize my device and so it is impossible to synch.
    What steps do I need to take to get through this problem?

    Thanks!  AFTER posting this basic question, I did what I should have done in the first place and serached it out.  Of course there is all kinds of info on what to do - I did it, problem fixed.  Frankly, I am a little embarrassed.  I should have searched first.
    Anyway, thanks for posting what you did.

  • I bought my ipad 2 from a friend I am trying to connect to my itunes on my computer and it will not recognize it. It keeps telling me that IPad cant be used because apple mobile device service is not started. can you help

    I bought my IPad 2 from a friend. I have reset to clear all of his information out. I am trying to connect it to my computer to sync my itunes and I keep getting the message that my IPad can't be used because Apple Mobile Device Service is not started can anyone help with this?

    I cannot find "Other" devices. I found Apple Mobile Device under Universal Bus Controllers but cannot see "recovery mode" or any other status. I use Windows Vista.
    When I try to restart Apple Mobile Device Service I get the following message: "The Apple Mobile Device Service on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs". What does this mean?
    During the last 48 hours I was able to see my iPad in iTunes only one time during many attemnpts to connect . I haven't been able to see it during the llast several attempts.
    Any suggestions? The standard suggestions have not worked: i.e. stop then start AMDS; tuurn off iPad and PC, then restart both and reconfrom iPad to PC; reload iTunes.
