Help my pc wont recognize my iphone

Hi my daughter has had an i tunes account for a few years on my pc for her ipod.I recently bought an i phone and have created my own account on my phone,and have purchased my own music.I tried to sinc my phone to itunes on my pc,but it will only recognize my daughters account.I cannot get my account info to load and therefor cannot load my own music.
I tried deleating i tunes from my computer and then re installed it,but it still comes up in my daughters account.
Does anyone have any info they can share on how i can get my own account to show?
Thank you
Lisa

try changing the username in the top right corner (click and hold) of itunes maybe it will work

  • My itunes account shuts down for no reason.  It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason.  If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down.   It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

    Will it charge when connected to a wall outlet? The USB port on your computer must be 2.0

    Hi. Please ensure you have the latest version of iTunes installed (uninstall and reinstall) and follow these instructions.

  • Itunes wont recognize my iPhone

    Hi, I recently upgraded to the latest version of iTunes and tried to sync my iPhone so I could update it as well. However, it won't even show up in iTunes, and I spent the last several hours trying to revert back to a previous iTunes version to see if that would help and it hasn't (I had to reinstall the latest version). My iPhone has 3.0.1 firmware at the moment. Is there anything I can do (without going through the iTunes nightmare again) or should I wait until a newer update for iTunes is released to fix this?

    Well, I talked to Apple Support, they told me to uninstall the components of iTunes (in a completely different order than the article for uninstalling iTunes on Windows Vista, mind you) and it resulted in iTunes acknowledging my iPhone, only to tell me that it couldn't interact because of missing software.
    The "AppleSync is not working!" and another strange error message popped up. The Apple Mobile Device Support component wasn't installed and the Apple assistant couldn't explain why, other than to say "Something went wrong with that install"...
    Simply put, the error messages kept coming up even after restarting my PC, and I had to do a System Restore, which had Apple Mobile Device Support intact, and then reinstall iTunes to get it "working" again. Still won't even recognize my iPhone, but somehow I prefer that to the mess that Apple Support left me with.

  • Itunes wont recognize my iphone 5s!!! Please help

    Hi Everyone.. can someone please help me? Ive been searching this forum for 2 days now and cannot find a fix to the issue I am having.
    My wife and I had iphone 4s' untill we recently upgraded to the 5s... we got both phones on the same day and simply installed from backup and everything appeared to run smoothly in both cases... Until i recently noticed that some of the music was missing from a playlist I made a while ago.
    Naturally I thought to sync the phone.. This is not possible over wifi (device options are greyed out) and it wont even work using a cable as the device driver times out.  Now please note I have forced an update to the driver multiple times now following advice on this site, and I have made sure that my windows updates and itunes software are fully upto date, yet I still cannot get itunes to see my phone... or my wifes phone!
    Iphone software is upto date and i have tried different cables just to be sure, and still nothing!  Help me apple support community.. your my only hope!
    Thanks

    Hello mcenteemike,
    Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
    The first thing I would check on would be what version of iTunes you have installed on your computer.
    System Requirements
    Apple ID (required for some features)
    Internet access4
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.7 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    From:
    iPhone 5 - Technical Specifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP655
    If your iTunes is up to date, then you use the appropriate link:
    Not seen in iTunes / USB connection issues

  • ITunes wont recognize my iPhone 4 after update

    I updated my iPhone to the latest version (7 point something) but my iTunes no longer recognizes the phone when I connect it via USB. The iPhone permanently shows the connect to iTunes logo but does nothing when I do connect it. I'm using a Windows PC as the platform. When I open Devices in Control Panel, there's a small yellow exclamation mark icon next to the Driver, it says in recovery mode...
    I cant reboot the phone because the Home button is bust.
    At this point I'd be happy if I could simply get the phone to work properly again - even if that means I have to use the old iOS.
    I've tested the USB cable and its working 100%
    I've updated iTunes but that didn't work
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes but that didn't work
    I've followed several apple support steps which didn't work
    Please help, I'm seriously frustrated, desperate and reaching breaking point.

    ITunes does recognize your phone it's in recovery mode.
    You will have to do these steps a few times   If you can't update or restore your iOS device

  • My computer wont recognize my Iphone 4

    I've plugged my phone into a PC, a Laptop, and a Macpro and every outlet in the house and it still wont say its charging yet when its pluggled in it trickle charges. ive even tried unistalling and reastalling itunes plz help!?!?!?

    Here's a good iPhone troubleshooting article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    If your iPhone can keep enough charge, restoring it (via iTunes) may well help.  Your box above says iOS 5.1.1. - that's the latest, so that's good.  Make sure you have the latest iTunes as well - 10.6.3.

  • Itunes wont recognize my iphone 4s to sync

    i open itunes on my windows 8 computer, plug my phone in with the usb cable and the icon doesn't appear at the upper right corner to sync my iphone anymore. ive tried going to my control panel and checking portable devices, everything's up to date ive tried "view" and hiding/ showing the tool bar.. ive tried dragging and dropping the 3 songs i want to transfer from itunes to my iphone, (moving to the itunes folder) ive tried deleting some data on my phone (pictures apps ect) ive tried using the cloud. ive tried typing in the songs i want on itunes, right clicking and trying to add to my playlist on my phone... and im really at a loss. i cant seem to get itunes to recognize my phone and have the sync icon show up. is there a way you know of to make that appear? i honestly only want to add 3 songs to my phone. what should i try next? thanks!

    Try another cable. They are known to fail after a while with wear and tear.

  • Help please - itunes wont recognize my phone (apple mobile device support)

    every time i plug my iphone 4 in i get the error message "this iphone cannot be used because the required software is not installed" and then advises me to uninstall and reinstall itunes.
    i have uninstalled (thoroughly, in the correct order) and reinstalled at least 30 times. the apple mobile device support is not installing. i'm running a laptop on windows vista. i've been into device management and the iphone (the driver being one for a camera) is there but amds isn't.
    i'm clueless. please help!

    Follow the directions here to restart the AMDS, if that doesn't work, follow the instructions at the end of this support document to reinstall the AMDS. Pay attention to the various steps, they MUST be done in a certain order:

  • Help my system wont recognize the cd drive at all

    Originally running os 8.1 now running 9.2.2 Will Start fine but does not recognize the cd drive. Someone gave me help a few years ago with this and I lost the post. Please help me get my system to recognize the cd drive. thanks

    Boot from your system install cd (the one that originally came w/your comp) while holding down the c key & run Disk First Aid from the Utilities folder. Have DFA repair any errors it finds. If unable to repair you will need to run a 3rd party utility cd.
    Utilities are best run from the CDs to avoid system interference & false readings/reports.
    You must use the versions that are compatible w/your OS system & keep the utilities updated to avoid damaging/harming/trashing your system.
    You need to make your own decision on which to purchase. Read up on them on their websites because each do something a little different.
