Help new ipad 1 does not appear in itunes in windows

Hi -  just got an ipad - bought used  when I connected it to my PC running Windows XP Prof it did not show up in itunes so I can't set it up.
My iphone syncs perfectly ... I'm just installing new itunes 10.2.2 but it was on 10.2.1 so don't think this will fix it.
Any other ideas?

    my ipad does not appear in itunes but the computer recognises it

    I had the same problem. found a dozen different solutions in various forums. None worked.
    One of the official responses TS1538 came very close and sounded promising. I found that the usb device did not appear in device manager. The ipad appeared only in the imaging devices.
    The instructions were to right click on the entry in images and update the driver, pointing at
    program files\common files\apple\drivers\usbaapl.inf.
    This told me that my device was not found in the driver. date on the files was 2009. date on the files in another pc which worked was 2011.
    I had already re-installed itunes, which I thought should install the necessary driver.
    Decided to fool it. copied the files in the above folder and then deleted them. Then re-installed itunes again.
    Fixed.
    So why doesnt itunes installation over-ride the old files?
    Why doesnt apple tell us about this fix.
    Why did I buy and apple?

  • My ipad does not appear in itunes. I am OS 10.6, itunes is up to date, I have restarted computer and ipad and switched usb sockets. Dont know if its related, but I can no longer see my sony handycam in imovies too.

    My brand new iPad 2 does not appear in iTunes. I am OS 10.6, iTunes is up to date, I have restarted computer and iPad and switched usb sockets. Don't know if its related, but I can no longer see my Sony Handycam in iMovies too.

    What content are you wanting to copy of the iPad ? You should be able to copy off anything that you've purchased from Apple (films, music, ibooks, apps etc) by connecting the iPad to your computer's iTunes and doing File > Transfer Purchases. If you want to copy off music copied from your own CDs or purchased from other sites then you will need to find a program for your computer that can copy them off – iTunes won't copy them off.
    For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit or saved from emails/websites then you should be able to copy them off via the Windows camera wizard.
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
    Content in third-party apps (documents and files etc) then how you copy that content off will depend upon what the apps that they are in support e.g.either via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

  • IPad does not appear in iTunes Devices list

    My MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad are all on the same network, however my iPad frequently does not appear in iTunes Devices when not physically connected by USB.  No problem with my iPhone.  Anyone else with this problem?  Any solution?  (Yes, all OS/iTunes softwares are current.)
    Further detail, to temporarily fix this issue, I physically connect my iPad via USB to sync it.  Temporarily the iPad will be seen in the device list allowing sycing to occur while remotely charging, but at some random time later my iPad is no longer found by iTunes - again without the physical USB link.  So, yes there is a work around, but it is annoying to be so up and down with this feature.
    Any ideas are appreciated.

  • Ipod does not appear in itunes after windows scan and fix

    Two days ago, I restored my Ipod classic using Itunes 9.2.0.61. After restoration my Ipod started freezing Itunes and Vista. At a point, I saw a blue screen and my computer forced a shutdown. When it rebooted, Vista kept asking to automatically "scan and fix" problems on my Ipod. Thinking that would solve the "freeze" problem, I stupidly went ahead to have Vista scan and fix my Ipod. Now the freeze problem is gone, but my Ipod does not appear in Itunes. I have tried the five Rs from Apple, but that has not helped. Anyone with a solution?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • Ipad does not appear on itunes 11

    My first gen ipad and my iphone 5 do not appear in itunes 11 (even though the computer recognizes the devices when they are plugged in to import photos.  Wifi sync does not work either.  Any help?

    Your Mac must meet these requirements in order to run Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
    From the Apple Icon in the upper left corner of your screen and go to About This Mac to find out if your Mac meets the requirements.

  • IPad does not appear in iTunes.

    I'm running OS X 10.6.8 on my Mac. I'm plugged into a USB port on my Mac. I can see the device in iPhoto, but not iTunes. I tried reinstalling iTunes but receive the message that I have a newer version on my hard drive. I've restarted both units and changed usb ports. What next? Thanks.

    You can look through both of these support articles. this first article talks about reinstalling the Apple Mobile Device Service.

  • Help! iPad will not appear in iTunes

    Need real advice, went through the help tutorial 10 times (disconnect all USB, try different USB, try restarting etc.) and no luck. Just got iPad but I had an older Mac running Tiger 10.4, so I upgraded to snow Leopard (10.6.4) and also downloaded most recent version of iTunes (9.2) - it simply wont recognize iPad, which is fully charged.
    If I run system profiler it sees the iPad as a USB device, but iTunes refuses to see it. Also shows up in finder devices as "iDisk"
    Whne I plug it in, it just shows the cord to iTunes graphic, if I hold down the sleep and start for 10 seconds I get the Apple logo, then it goes to a screen to slide the red bar to power off, and there is a small icon of a lock on top - do I need to somehow unlock this with software or hardware?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    You can reset the iPad to its factory state by putting it into "recovery mode". I had to do this one time when iTunes would not recognize the iPad and it didn't seem to be charging. This will erase everything on the iPad, but after restoring from within iTunes everything should be synched back over.
    This article says how. Basically, turn off the iPad and then hold down the home button while plugging the USB cord into your computer. Keep holding it down until you see the original screen telling you to use iTunes to set up the iPad.
