can someone help me figure this out my phone wont sync cause it says -This phone cannot be used because the apple moblie device service is not started. why ? it worked fine yesterday
That is because your apple mobile device service is not started.
The apple mobile device is the thing that allows your phone to communicate with your computer. First thing to try is restarting your computer then plugging your phone in. Check with activity monitor / task manager to see if it is running. -

You seem to have installED iTunes and are trying to connect your iDevice, is that right?

I have a new Ipad and was trying to sync from Itune what is on my Iphone. It keeps saying "Ipad can't be used Apple Moble device service isn't started". ???? help I then tried to connect my phone to Itunes and it is saying the same thing??? Help what is going on?
Right click 'computer' in your PC/laptop (whichever). Click 'Manage', then 'Services and Applications', then 'Services', you should see 'Apple Mobile Device' running or stopped. If you couldn't find 'Apple Mobile Device', it means you haven't download iTunes into your PC/laptop (whichever).

Itunes won't install correctly in PC...Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start
I have recently been getting messages that ITunes was installed incorrectly. I've followed all the recommend procedures and it still does not work. I'm also getting a message that the Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start. Also, when I plug in my Iphone to the computer, it downloaded the correct device driver but failed to recognize the Iphone so that I cannot transfer my photos to the PC. Do you have any advice?
The error message I'm getting is #7, Windows #193. I have 64bit.

Hello People!
I'm getting an error message when I plug my iPhone 4 into my computer. It says, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Moblie Device Service has not been started." What does this mean? I've never had this error before. It's also giving the same message with my iPod touch. Please help!
Thanks,
DanaGalYou can easily check whether you've the Apple Mobile Device in your computer.
Right click 'My Computer' , then Manage => Services and Applications => Services. Apple Mobile Device is listed in alphabetical order. If none, it means you've not download iTunes into your computer yet. If yes, please ensure the Apple Mobile Device is in 'Started' status.
Good luck -
Apple Moblie Device service is not started - Cannot be started.
Running Windows 7 64bit and iTunes 10.1.0.54
I've been able to sync my iPod in the past. Now, when I plug it in, I get the message "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Moblie Device service is not started."
Ok, so I try to start the Apple mobile device service. I get the following error: "Windows could not start the Apple Moblie Device service on Local Computer. Error 1067: The Process terminated unexpectedly."
When I check my error log I see: "The Apple Mobile Device service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 56 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 60000 milliseconds: Restart the service."
I've gone through the steps to uninstall every component of apple products found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 to no avail. I've even gone through the verification step and no folders/files exist after uninstall. Still no dice upon reinstall.
I've been uninstalling/reinstalling and googleing for a solution for about 3 hours now and haven't found a solution. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
VyxI have Norton Security Suite and under (on norton)settings/firewall/programs find mobiledeviceservice instead of automatic i changed it to allow worked for me.

ITunes is not recognizing my phone
After I added a new iPod Touch to my account, my iPhone stopped working. When I push the home button at the bottom, nothing happens (black screen only). When I push and hold the button at the top, I get a picture of a usb plug and an arrow above it pointing up to the iTunes icon. When I plug it into the computer, I get the same picture on the screen. It seems as if iTunes is not recognizing my phone.
Does anyone know what I need to do?

My itunes is no longer recognizing my new ipod when I plug it in . I am getting a message in itunes that says, " this ipod cannot be used because the apple mobile device is not started." I have tried the troubleshooting tips but not sure what to do next. My itunes is updated to 10 and ipod has not been connected to itunes since Oct. Should I update my ipod to 6.1.3? It is only at 6.0.1 I have not done this yet. My itunes is saying version 10. My ipod is not backed up on icloud so i do not know what I should do. I use the same account as My iphone which is backed up by icloud. Please help. Need to put songs on my ipod.
Hello R Hic,
