IPAD NOT RECOGNIZED BY ITUNES, AND NOT ALWAYS CHARGING

HELLO,
MY IPAD 1 32 GB WIFI/3G IOS 5.0.1 IS NO MORE RECOGNIZED BY ITUNES ON MACOS X 10.6 or PC, WITH ITUNES 10.5.3, AND IS NOT CHARGING ALL THE TIME.
IT DIDN'T SEEM TO BE AN ISSUE OF THE IPAD USB CONNECTOR, SINCE IT DIDN'T GET ANY SHOCK, AND IT ACCEPT CHARGING SOMETIMES, EVERY 5 to 10 ATTEMPTS BY AVERAGE, WHEN FORCE IT TO HARD RESET (HOME+POWER).
I TRIED IN VAIN DIFFERENT USB CABLES, OR USB PORTS , DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM.
THANKS TO HELP ME TO SOLVE THAT.

IT sometimes accept to charge when plugged into its original wall mount charger. But not all the times...
That portion of the problem indicates a hardware issue. Is it sitll in warranty? In the meantime, try some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Did you try recovery mode? Hold down the home button as you connect it to iTunes. iTunes should pop up a window that says "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode" and give you the option to restore.

Hello,
The cord might be the case, but first, try these suggestions:
Try putting your iPod into disk mode, then try connecting it to your computer again...
<a href="How to put your iPod into disk mode</a>
Do you have a wall charger? If so, then try connecting your iPod to that, and does it charge, or not?
Have you checked this link out?:
<a href="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60941">iPod doesn't charge correctly
Does your iPod appear in "My Computer"? If so...
iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes
If not...
iPod missing in "My Computer" or in iTunes
Post back on what happens when you try these things out. I hope this helps!

My ipod touch is not recognized on itunes and will not turn on or even give me the battery sign that it is dead. I turned it off and it won't turn back on now. The screen is completely black and won't do anything. I have tried charging it over night and nothing happened. It was never near water. I have tried troubleshooting it by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button, but nothing happened and it didn't work. What can I do to fix it?

IPad Running 7.0.2 Not Recognized in iTunes 11.1 on Mac

My iPad with 7.0.2 is now not recognized by iTune 11.1 on Mac. Please help since I do not want to restore to factory defaults. Any Suggestions?

Running iTunes 11.1.3.8 for Windows, have reinstalled it countless times now, along with every single apple driver and subprogram I've seen on my computer. And yes I checked everything on the list you sent me.
I plugged in the iPad to an OSX machine with this very same cable and it was recognized instantly by even an older version of iTunes.
And yes my windows 8.1 does recognize the device, its just iTunes that doesnt.

IPad not recognized by itunes or my PC...stuck in recovery mode

Wow... what a mess.
I inherited a first gen iPad last week... wanted to wipe it clean and start fresh. Restored and erased all content... and now it's stuck in recovery mode. It's not recognized in iTunes or at all by my PC. When I plug it in... nothing at all. Looked in my device manager for it to show up... nothing. Tried restaring it, putting it into DFU mode, plugging it into different usb ports, different usb cables, reinstalling itunes, trying it on multiple different computers, and pretty much every how to help article I could find on the web.
HELP! There must be some way to kick this thing back to life. It's fully charged, was treated well before I had it, and practically new.
HELP! Please.

did you try all those steps:
Disconnect the device from the computer.
Save a screenshot by pressing the Home button and the Wake/Sleep button at the same time (the screen should flash briefly). Note: Taking screenshots and saving images on iPod touch requires iOS version 2.0 or later.
Reconnect the device to the computer.
Open the Device Manager in Windows as follows:
Windows XP: Click Start > Run. In the resulting dialog type devmgmt.msc and press Return on the keyboard.
Windows Vista or Windows 7: Click Start. In the dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return on the keyboard. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click "Continue".
Expand all the sections labeled below (not all sections may be listed):
Imaging Devices
Other Devices
Portable Devices
Universal Serial Bus Controllers
Look for the entry that recognizes the device as a camera. This entry should be called Apple iPhone,Apple iPad, or Apple iPod.

IPad not recognized by iTunes

I have the following problem:
My new iPad is not connecting to iTunes. When I insert the USB cable I hear the USB-connect sound of windows, but in iTunes nothing happens.
However my previous iPad and iPhone are connecting without any problems. I followed all the steps in the guide on the Apple Support page, including completely deleting and reinstalling iTunes. Nothing helped.
My stuff:
OS: Windows 7
Itunes: latest version
iPad with retina display, iOS 6.1 - the new one that will not connect
iPad 2, iOS 6.1 - connecting without problems
IPhone 4, iOS 6.1 - connecting without problems
Can anyone help me and solve this problem of my new iPad not connecting to iTunes?

I found a solution. It seems that Windows had a setting selected that drivers are not automatically installed if not available on the computer. So I changed this setting and my iPad was immediately recognized.
For people with the same problem: I went to: Control Panel > Devices and printers. Under Unknown I saw my iPad, so I right clicked and selected: Solve problems. Then it said something about missing drivers so I chose to install them. In addition the problem solve wizard pointed me to the setting in windows that drivers are not automatically installed.

IPad not recognized by itunes in Win7

Hallo,
after setting up my computer new and changing to windows 7 (starting with a new SSD) my iphone is not recognized by itunes. In windows i get in
start -> system configuration -> hardware and sound -> printers and devices
8 devices in section 'printers and fax'
5 devices in 'devices'
and in the bottom section 'not specified' the ipad device
The first question is if this is the right place to show for the ipad in win7. I see nothing in 'computer' in the windows explorer
If i plug and unplug the ipad from (several) USB ports (which are all 2.0) i get the typical windows sound for that
The problem is that the device does not show up in itunes. If i choose [Questionmark] / Start diagnosis in the itunes menu bar, all is green except for the one red light saying 'no ipad found'
I already worked through the official help
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/#section_0
with no result (itunes version 10.4.1.10, USB 2.0, itunes re-installed)
Can anybody help, any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I just worked again throught the link provided by Carolyn Samit
I stumbled in the section
3. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
There i read after gettin into the device manager
'Locate the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver in this list.'
I got a whole bunch of USB things in the device manager but none of them has the word 'apple' in it. Does that really mean i have to search for some apple word in the device manager?
Maybe someone out there with a working win7/ipad/itunes system can just confirm that
a) he has some apple thing in the device manager
b) his ipad does not show up in the windows explorer
c) his ipad shows up in the section 'unspecified' in the start -> system configuration -> hardware and sound -> printers and devices
Thank you

IPod Touch and iPad Not Recognized by iTunes

When I plug in my iPod Touch and iPad, iTunes does not open, but both devices are recognized by Windows 7. When I open iTunes manually, there is no listing for "Device" at all. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest iTunes version several times to no avail. I'd appreciate any advice on what I can do to solve this problem.

Ipad not recognized in itunes

I'm sick of this....iPad is recognized by Windows 7 PC, but not in iTunes. Latest versions of all software - Windows 64 bit, iTunes 64 bit. I uninstall iTunes and reinstall, and it recognizes my iPad, but after computer shutdown and reboot, it's back to the same problem. I thought apple was supposed to be great?

Ipad not recognized by itunes; apps shut off on ipad as soon as I open them

My ipad is not recognized in iTunes, when plugged into my computer. I can't back up or sync to my computer, but I have managed to back up to icloud, I think. Applications shut off within 20 seconds of opening them on my ipad. I think I need to reset my ipad but I'm just not getting that option when I plug it in to my computer and I'm worried about whether or not the icloud backup is sufficient. Thanks!

Try some basic troubleshooting before you restore your iPad.
First close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that didn't help, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
IF you really feel that you need to restore, and maybe you will have to, try this for help with the device not being seen by iTunes.
