"Devices" does not appear in left-hand column of iTunes
"Devices" has disappeared from the left hand column of iTunes.
How can I restore?
You've got windows, i suppose? Well, how long do you wait before the device appears? i think i had to wait like 20 minutes b4 mine would show up the first time. Or, you could try reinstalling iTunes. Or, if all else fails, use another computer, like ask a friend if you could use theirs if you dont have another.
Hope it works, and always happy to help,

My iPhone 5 will not sync with itunes. Icon does no appear in left hand column. Both iTunes and the iPhone are running the most up to date updates. Please help.
Is your iPhone connected to your computer using the lightning cable or are you doing WiFi sync?
Sometimes the iPhone doesn't show up in the side bar if you're using WiFi syncing, if its not working, then be connected to your WiFi on your phone and on your computer (Same network) let me know how it's going, if it doesn't work still. Turn your phone off and on again and put in your pass code then try to sync it (keep your phone unlocked and not in sleep mode) tel me if it appears in the side bar. -
When I open itunes, "Devices" does not appear t all in the left column on the screen. I can not sync my ipod with my itunes library. Suggestions?
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

To extend wifi range, I plugged in my airport extreme within exisitng range but the device does not appear in my airport utility (on the left of the screen). The airport extreme is blinking amber. Please advise. Thank you.
The AirPort Extreme can extend the signal from another Apple router wirelessly, so as long as you have a 802.11n version of the products, the extend function should work.
Please check to locate the Model No of both of your AirPort routers. It will be on the bottom of the device. Starts with an "A" followed by four numbers, as in "A x x x x".
Post back with that info.
We also need to know the version of AirPort Utility that you are using. If you are not sure, click the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About AirPort Utility and post back with tht info as well. -

My ipod nano is not showing up in the left hand column of itunes. It says connected on the ipod and I can find it in my computer but its not there on itunes. I need it as I want to restore it to factory settings. I have tried the troubleshooting methods that are on the Apple website but no luck.
Also my ipod is not playing. I found a way to upload all my music to my new computer. I followed a guide given to me on wiki and it worked. However, since then I cannot get the ipod to play. The menu is there, it turns on, all the playlists are visable but when I press play it does nothing or flicks briefly on to the page to play but then flicks back to the list again. I have tried all the troubleshooting on the Apple website but again nothing. I wanted to restore it to factory settings but to do this you have to be able to access the ipod in the left column on itunes which obviously I can't do. That was happening before the ipod stopped working. The two issues are separate.
Thanks and hope you can help me.I have sorted it myself!!
Ipod is now in the top right corner, last time I clicked on it, it ejected it but by clicking on the actual ipod icon then it brings up your ipod. I restored it to factory settings and synced all my music and it now works again. Hope this can help anyone who ends up with the same problem. -

Unplug your Iphone out of your computer and replug it back in. It took me several times before I could do this

My device does not appear in the iTunes window. Instead a separate window opens so I cannot sync
My device does not appear in the iTunes window. Instead a separate window opens so I cannot sync my device. I have tried with both my iPad, my iPod and my iPhone. In each case a separate window opens showing that it is fully connected to the computer, but it does not open in iTunes.
I have followed previous instructions to stop then start the device manager. I have even uninstalled then reinstalled iTunes, but no luck. Can someone help??Hello Linda Lev,
It sounds like Windows recognizes that your devices are conneted, but iTunes does not. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:

Ipod shuffle 4th gen device does not appear in latest version iTunes
ipod shuffle 4th gen device does not appear in latest version iTunes
Mine is not recognized by PC-Windows, nor Itunes, and not by the "Mass Storage Device" removal Icon. I've done all the diagnostic tests, Uninstalled Itunes then reinstalling, etc.etc to no avail. Yet never had a problem with old generation Ipod, (died of old age) and Gloria's Ipod after two plus years is going strong with never an issue. I belive Apple is having significant problems with the 3/8 inch shorter newest Ipod generation. If your Ipod is still under warranty you need to call Apple support.
