HT1766 itunes does not recognize my iphone. i can only access my pictures and now all my personal songs i copied from my cds are missing from my phone too. I have tried reinstalling itunes to no avail. went to the apple store Genius bar who couldnt figur
Help, I have tried all the things I can to get my phone to sync with my computer.
I have already tried that a dozen times. Did also reset Apple Support on control panel. It is just stuck and plain "ruined". I am so frustrated I am this close to returning my iPhone 4S and get a metro PCS! I have an impression there is some code/bug issue with the new OS upgrade that doesn't match with 3G/3GS. I guess Apple OS developers don't care about how the "lowly" consumers -- those who cannot afford to buy every single new model they roll out -- might feel about their "upgrades"... I understand you're a Jobs fan (from your user ID), but this is not the first time I see this kind of so-called-upgrade crashes otherwise perfectly well-functioning older machines. (There are obviously plenty of 3G/3GS users experiencing this kind of problem) If this is Apple's marketing strategy to force frustrated conumers to go out and buy a newer model, I am completely turned off by Apple. It's not that I'm in love with Android or Windows. iPhone is a good product. But it's the Apple's technical service/back up for regular joes out there -- not techies/engineers -- who cannot afford every single model upgrade that really irritates me.

ITunes 10.5.0.142 does not recognize my iPhone 3GS
My PC is running Windows 7 Professional, 32-bit OS. My iTunes and iPhone syncing has been flaky since I began using this machine in July, 2011 but was working. However, now iTunes does not recognize my iPhone at all. Previously I was able to force a sync by opening iTunes and then plugging in the phone, but now that is no longer working. The iPhone is recognized by the computer as it does charge, I can see it as a device in Window's Explorer and it asks what I would like to do with the photos / videos.
Here is the latest info on what is installed for each device:
- iTunes: 10.5.0.142
- iPhone: OS 5.0.1, Firmware 05.16.05
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask further questions as I'm not exactly sure what other information to provide at the present time; I'm pretty much at a loss right now.
Thanks!
JohnI am having the same problem. I have a 16Gb iPhone 3GS ios v 4.2.1 with iTunes v 10.5, yet when I connect the phone it tells me there are no updates available. I have 2 iPads, an iMac and a Macbook pro - all of which have upgraded successfully. I thought ios5 was available for the 3GS iPhone. Anyone got any ideas?

ITune Does not recognize my iPhone (Europe 4G-4S)
iTune Does not recognize my iPhone (Europe 4G-4S). The iOS (ver 4.xx)on the phone does not have the "update the software now" option. WinXp identifies it as "Europe 4G-4S Android Phone and Keeps asking for the following file/driver: ST65xx which I can not find.
Thanks for your help!A google search for "Europe 4G-4S Android Phone" turns up device drivers as FelipeV noted, as well as this product page (in Italian) http://lucazatti.blogspot.com/2013/01/android-40-smartphone-4g-4s-cellulari_11.h tml
These fakes used to be pretty common and some were actually almost indistinguishable from the real thing until you tried to use them with iTunes...

Itunes on my Mac 10.4.11 does not recognize my iphone
itunes on my Mac 10.4.11 does not recognize my iphone 4S
also, once I plug in my iphone, it is recognized as a camera, but nothing to do with music.
if i have to upgrade software, how do i do that?You get Mac OS X 10.5 on DVD if you have a PowerPC G4 or G5 Mac, or Mac OS X 10.6 on DVD if you have an Intel Mac. If you're using a G3 Mac, you need a newer computer.

Windows does not recognize my iphone name, but itunes does
This is a reqpost of another forum on diff site, but is the exact same problem i have~
After the IOS5 update~ and and updating two phones on same computer~
I have windows 7 x64bit, and the problem is it does not recognize my iPhone's name anymore.. in itunes it shows the correct name but when ever i look at My Computer listed under portable devices the name is wrong instead of being Louie's iPhone it shows Kim's iPhone (My Fiancees iPhone).. i can still access it and get my pictures and stuff but the name of the device is just wrong.. so im hoping you guys know how to solve this problem.. this only started happening when i installed iOS 5...
so to sum it up..
iTunes... Louie's iPhone
Windows... Kim's iPhone
here are the things I already did but did not work...
... uninstalled everything apple, rebooted and reinstalled.
... restored my iPhone as new 3x and still nothing....
I am at a lost here.. so please help me guys? i know you can solve this coz sinful has never failed me beforeIn Windows 7, it is not possible to change the name by right-clicking and selecting properties! It doesn't work...
The only solution that worked was to search the registry for the incorrect name and adjust it by hand, which strikes me as a pretty ****** solution! Better would be that the Apple USB driver would just use a neutral name like "iPhone". Which makes me wonder what would happen if two iPhones are connected at the same time: how can they be told apart in the "Computer" application? -
I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?
Backup first
It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
Erase before the install
Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
During the install
Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
OS numbers and names
OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
OS X 10.7.x - Lion
OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion
More about Macs
The Apple History site has specifications for every Mac ever produced: http://www.apple-history.com/
Upgrade to Leopard
Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
Upgrade beyond Leopard
OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
Upgrade beyond Snow Leopard

Important
Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages. -
