Device will not show when iTunes is loaded and iPhone is connected

When I connect the iPhone to iTunes the device does not show. So now I can't sync my phone to iTunes. Can anybody help with this please?

Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

    I can't tell from your post if you are using a Windows or a Mac Computer.
    Try deleting the iTunes application and redownloading the version you need below:

  • On an iPod Nano 2G, the iPod will not show in iTunes

    Using an iPod Nano 2 G, when I plug it into a Mac, the iPod will not show in iTunes. The iPod will charge, but will not sync. This happens across multiple Mac's, so the issue seems to be the Nano, not the computer(s). The iPod will actually show for about 2 seconds in the left sidebar, then it disappears. Any suggestions about how to either fix this, or maybe how to restore the iPod's software. The iPod otherwise seems to be working correctly, i.e. will play music, etc. we have tried switching ports, cables and computers, same results. 

    Did you do everything here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Including
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    Do other USB devices work on the computer/USB port??

  • Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them.  When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears.  Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.

    Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them.  When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears.  Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.  I also cannot attach any of these pics into an e-mail or into any other file.  I have already went through all 3 Repair options and when that did not solve it went through a complete Rebuild.  Any Help?!  Any Suggestions on how to fix this?!  I have spent almost 2 days now going through all of the published help.
    I have backups going back 6 months - I have not had the real need to check every album before - but - all of my backups also have this same problem.

    The triangle with the ! indicates that the connection between the thumbnail and the orginal is missing - this can be caused by many things including database corruption and user action emoving the originals photos on urpose or by accident
    If the database is corrupted then rebuilding is the solution - backup and depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your database  --  if the iPhoto rebuild does not cure the problem then download iPhoto Library manager and use its rebuild command which creates a totally new library leaving the existing one untouched
    If you have deleted the photos then you need to start over with a new library and import the photos you have not deleted into it
    You can select one of the problem photos and use the reveal original in finder commander (file menu) to see if the original is there - if it is a finder window will open showing it

    You should be able to copy it from your iPhone to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, and if it's compatible with your iPad you can then sync it to it

    If yu tried everthing here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Then try another cable
    Then another computer to help determine if youhave a computer or iPod problem.
    If iPod problem than an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone will not show in itunes on windows 8

    I installed windows 8 operating system and itunes works, however, my iphone will not appear in itunes. How do we fix this?

    iTunes does not yet support Windows 8, so there may not be a fix until such time as Apple releases a version of iTunes that does support 8. You can search this forum for "windows 8", though, and perhaps you'll find a suggestion in one of the other threads on the issue.
