Itunes not detecting iphones but detecting ipod

I have re-installed iTunes on Windows XP but it does not detect any of two iPhones 4, but it does detect my iPod. The camera wizard does, howver, detect both iPhones as cameras. Apart from re-installing iTunes I have also stopped and restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service and following up on another lead on the web deleted Bonjour, but still no iPhone detection.

ITunes not recognizing iPod, but computer does

I have an older iPod touch (model MC008LL) and I just updated iTunes to 11.1.4 (I'm running Windows 8).Whatever version I was using before (I don't remember what it was) had no issues with my iPod at all. After I did this last update, my iPod shows up on my computer, iTunes refuses to acknowledge it being there (which is rude if you ask me). I've unplugged it and plugged it back in and browsed the internet and have come up with nothing.
I just got a bunch of new music and would like to sync it across. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Christopher
To get iTunes to recognise your mini, try resetting while it is connected to your computer (hold menu and select until the Apple logo appears)

IPod Touch not detected by "My computer" and Spotify

Hello!
My iPod Touch 4th generation, wich is completely new, is not detected in "My Computer" or Spotify, only in iTunes. I have tried with updates and reboots, but nothing seems to work.
When troubleshooting in iTunes, it finds nothing wrong.
The iPod works perfectly fine with iTunes.
I have Windows XP and USB 2.0.
All help is appreciated! Thank you

I have tried with an other PC:
Before I installed iTunes on PC two, the iPod was recognized as a camera in "My computer".
After installing iTunes on PC two, it worked completely fine with iTunes, but again failed to be recognized in "My computer".

Hp g6000 dvd drive not detected in my computer, tried registry fix and still not working.

Hi i have a hp g6093ea laptop and for a couple of weeks now i have had my dvd drive dissapear from my computer.
i have the tried the registry thing where you delete the upper and lower filters and then restart laptop.
it worked then couple days later it was gone again.
i have removed the dvd from laptop and clean the connection and put it back still the same.
i was told to remove any burning programs and reinstall so i did that and the drive came back then after reboot went again.
the dvd drive ejects and has power and attempts to read the disk but its just not detected in my computer.
i have even been into the bios and put cd drive as boot first.,
then put my bootable xp pro disk in and it wont boot from the bios.
so i thought i would try an external drive to boot from bios, and it doesnt boot from there either.
i have had the drive randomly pop up in my computer and then after a restart it would be gone again.
so i cant put a fresh install on my laptop and i dont know what else i can do.
any help
thanks

How old is your laptop?
Have you had any other problems, besides the dvd drive, in the past few months?

Constant unresponsive script warnings - constant - no particular site - just slows computer- now using Explorer (not a fan) but computer now running smoothly. in English

Constant "unresponsive script" warnings - no particular site - slows computer for considerable time. Now using Explorer (not a fan) but computer running smoothly. I believe the problem is with Firefox. What can be done so I can go back to Firefox?

I noted Dino had the same problem..many things crossed my mind..could it be my computer, could it be two other browsers parked in my computer but not be using as a default, or is it Firefox...I have not received any specific answers without spending a lot of bucks for professional help..any suggestions would be beneficial..Rob [email protected].Firefox Default user

Ipod nano Not detected in my computer or itunes

Okay, first off, I have tried several different things to correct this issue, and NOTHING has become remotely helpful.
My computer doesn't even make the little "ding" sound that I get with all my other usb devices upon plug in. The ipod will be charging and nothing else, nothing in device manager, my computer, itunes and wherever else it is at. The Ipod was given to my by a friend who moved away a few weeks ago, and I finally got the charger yesterday. The ipod can play songs and what-have-you but will not connect to the computer in anyway but to charge. Resetting does NOT work, I repeat, it does NOT work.
I cannot restore it as it doesn't even get detected by anything on the computer. The cord is NEW so it is not that, all the usb ports WORK so it couldn't be that, and it is not my computer as I tried on a laptop and another desktop. I refuse to send it in for repairs as I do not wish to spend money on something I haven't even got to use, and would be extremely upset to get it sent back saying it's faulty. :/
Oh and itunes is the latest version.
READ THE WHOLE THING BEFORE OFFERING HELP.
I will not read anything mentioning resetting, ports, computers, cable and all the stuff I have ALREADY tried.

How can I give a detailed description of everything
Well, you wrote you would not read any posts if you have already tried something so anyone responding would need to know exactly what you have tried.
Have you restarted the *iPod Service*?
"1- Quit iTunes.
2 - Right click on My Computer/Computer and click Manage. If Windows requires your permission to continue, click Continue.
3 - Click the plus symbol to the left of Services and Applications.
4 - Select Services listed under Services and Applications.
5 - Double click iPod Service in the right hand panel.
6 - Click the Stop button under the General tab and leave the iPod Service Properties window open.
7 - Connect your iPod and wait until it is visible in My Computer/Computer.
8 - Click the Start button in the iPod Service Properties window.
9 - Open iTunes."
Check your registry keys -> A computer that is running Windows XP cannot detect a USB thumb drive, an Apple iPod, or an external hard disk drive
The ipod is obviously on a working cable if it can charge form the usb.
Not necessarily.
A USB cable has 4 pins, 2 for power and 2 for communications/data transfer.
Don't even need the 2 comm lines for it to charge.
they will force me to pay too much for a new one.
They won't "force" you to do anything.

TS1389 Error message: transfer purchases from iphone into itunes not authorized. But the computer IS authorized. Any suggestions? Thanks

Trying to transfer purchases from iphone into itunes I keep getting error that computer is not authorized. But it IS authorized, any suggestions? Thanks,

It's a straightforward port-forwarding issue.
You need to forward ports to the internal ip address of your apple tv as follows:
TCP 123
TCP 3689
UDP 5353
TCP 80
TCP 4343
TCP 53
This may also solve other problems you may have with homesharing...

Windows 7 or itunes not detecting my ipod.

My ipod (5th gen) was fine working on windows vista 32bit, but i recently bought a brand new computer, operating system windows 7 premium 64bit. Tried most things, resetting ipod or using disk mode has no effect either.
Plugging my ipod in never got detected, not even as a storage device. So after installing the latest itunes software (itunes for windows 64bit) it still would not be detected by both windows in my computer and itunes.
in device manager though under disk drives it shows "apple ipod usb device".
under storage volumes it shows "unknown device"
and under USB controllers it shows "Apple mobile device USB driver"
I searched the internet before coming here, all i could find was uninstall every single bit of apple software, unplug the ipod then reinstall itunes etc, i tried all this but had bo success.
Obviously the ipod is fine as it works in my old pc and charges in this new one.
Thanks to all who can offer advice.

I've paid for support from Apple for same issue. No solution yet. It's about a month.
