How to "Mount" iPhone in iTunes?

Maybe a dumb question, but... I have my iTunes set to manually synch my iPhone3. If iTunes is already open and I plug in the iPhone, it doesn't automatically "mount" it in iTunes. How do I get it to "mount" without quitting and restarting iTunes?

Turn the iPhone off.  While pressing and holding the Home button, connect it to iTunes using the USB cable.

    There are unsupported mechanisms of doing what you want. You can search for iTunesFS.

    Hello Jacky lou
    If you cannot activate your iPhone with cellular service, then check out the first article to sort you out. If it deals with Activation Lock, then you will need to enter in the password correctly to get passed that point. Check out the second article for more information on Activation Lock.

    You do not need to authorise an iPhone, all you need to do is sign in to the Apple ID used for iTunes. You may be required to verify your identity by answering security questions.
    To authorise a computer that has iTunes on it follow the instructions in the article below:

  • How to synchronize iPhone with iTunes in Mac and BootCamp.

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook Pro and recently I purchased an iPhone. For work reasons I use windows as well as Mac OS ( I prefeer MacOS by in my company we develop windows software...)
    The problem is that I synchronized my iPhone with iTunes in Windows and I want to use my iPhone with Mac iTunes too.
    I think a possible solution is to use the same library in the two OS, and I don't know if it is possible.
    In Mac OS I don't have write access to BootCamp's NTFS file-system partition, so I use a Windows software to full acces to Mac OS partition. For me the solution would be to place windows iTunes library files in MacOS partition and use these files with MacOS iTunes as library too, but I don't know if it's possible.
    If anyone have any other idea how to solve this problem...
    Thanks,
    Raul

    All your contacts, photos, music etc. should be on your computer, so you just sync the second iPhone to the same computer as the first iPhone.

  • How to move iPhone 4/iTunes from Windows XP computer to Windows 7 computer?

    I need step by step instructions for moving my iPhone 4/iTunes files from a PC Windows XP computer (current version) running Outlook 2003 to a new PC Windows 7 64 bit computer running Outlook 2010.  I sync Outlook email, calendar, contacts, notes, and have iTunes music (purchased and not purchased) and photos (camera roll only).  I'm not using iCloud due to duplication of data inconsistencies.  My iPhone 4 is fully up-to-date on OS version, as is my iTunes.  My iPhone 4 is fully backed up to the current computer.  The current XP computer is the only computer that I sync with, and the new 7 computer will be the only computer I sync with post transfer.
    Thanks in advance.

    Use the Windows File Transfer Utility to move everything.

  • How can 2 iPhones share iTunes

    My partner and I both have iPhones, we have 2 different apple ids, how can we share iTunes without messing up iCloud, photos etc?

    Hi,
    You can sync apps but you have to select apps for each device. When you plug you device in it will remember your apps that you selected for that device. I have an iPhone and an iTouch with a different app set synced to the same iTunes library. Just go through the list when the device is connected and choose the apps/ songs ect. then sync. When you connect the other device repeat the process. Make sure to not let iTunes automatically sync when connected. iTunes will remember the settings for each device. Works for me.

  • How to sync iPhone with iTunes for first time without setting up as a new iPhone

    I have an iPhone 5 that I have never sync:ed with iTunes on my Mac, I have just set it up and purchased apps etc from the iPhone itself.
    Now I would like to sync with iTunes for the first time with the iPhone but when I connect it, iTunes asks me if I want to setup the iPhone as a new iPhone (I assume form scratch) or from a backup from other iPhones that have been sync:ed with my Mac.
    Now I dont want to setup this iPhone from scratch and erase everything thats on it, I just want to sync with my Mac, download apps, music etc. How do I do that and get beyoind the first screen that asks about setting up as a new iPhone ?

    Hi I think I've found a workarround. I'm currently copying all files on my iPhone to the new PC using this program: http://www.getsharepod.com/download/
    After all files are copied I think I can enable sync in the new iTunes and delete the iPhone, then add the copied files in new playlists.
    I'll let you know.

  • How to fix iPhone 2G itunes restore error 23

    Hi.
    I have had this iPhone 2g for a few years now. About three years ago my iphone 2g had displayed that there was no sim card while I knew my sim card was in there. I tried to restore and everything went downhill. To make a long story short, my iphone was unable to restore. No matter how many time si tried to restore it, i always got the error #23. Specifically it says:
    "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error occured (23)."
    Now, itunes wants me to update my iphone firmware as well as restore it. I am not sure if this is contributing to the problem or not. Currently the iPhone is running 3.0.1 firmware.
    I have tried using Recboot to exit recovery mode, but then the iphone is stuck on the apple logo forever.
    Is there anything I haven't tried yet? Is this a fixable thing that I don't have to take to the genius bar or replace a part?
    Please, if you can help, it woudl be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you
