I have a mac book my iPhone 4 doesn't show up in devicesin iTunes so cannot sync. it has also stopped syncing wirelessly.

I have a mac book pro and iPhone 4. suddenly when i connect my iPhone 4 to my mac my phone doesn't show up in devices. it recognises it via iPhoto and uploads my photos but i cannot see it in iTunes so cannot sync. it has also stopped syncing wirelessly.

Using the USB cable, connect your phone to the computer you want to sync with. Let the phone sync.
In the left-hand pane, click on your iPhone under Devices.
Select the Summary tab along the top of the screen.
Under Option, is the checkbox for Sync with this Phone over Wi-Fi checked? If not, check it and click Apply.
If it was already checked, do the following:
Uncheck it
Click Apply
Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
Plug the iPhone into the computer again
Check the Sync over Wi-Fi checkbox
Click Apply
Disconect the iPhone from the computer
Now go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can sync wirelessly.

My IPhone doesn't show up in my Itunes on my computer.

I have an IPhone 5, which I bought back in December of 2012. I've never had an issue with syncing my Iphone to my Itunes until today, and for some reason it just doesn't show up in my Itunes side bar. If anyone could help, that'd be great.

Thanks, I just needed to update my Itunes It syncs with my IPhone now.

HT4623 What if my iphone doesn't show up in my itunes when I plug it in to my computer?

My computer recently crashed and I got a new hard drive. When I got it back, my iPhone didn't show up in my Itunes (which I reinstalled) and I can't update my phone and can't back it up. How do I fix this?

Are you using iTunes 11.x? Has it ever worked?

IPhone doesn't show anywhere except in iTunes and device manager.

My iPhone working, tethering and syncing property but does not show anywhere else. I need to back up the photos after some recent events and on a PC which just creates an encrypted file in an Apple file folder.
I can see the phone using an external program but the copy functions not there anymore. Picture wizard says there is no camera there. I have tried uninstalling the device and re-install. I have removed and installed iTunes and now have restore the phone completely. Picture wizard says there is no camera there. It does show in device manager and iTunes but oesn't show in Windows Explorer.
If I plug it into another computer it doesn't show in that either. Had a client over last night and his iPhone showed up on both computers and both started the camera wizard, So I'm thinking it's something in the phone. I need the photos backed up.
Thanks

This has really stumped me. I'm fairly well read on the iPhone software and related stuff. I also had some other tech savvy guys here last night and three brains had no answers. One thinks it must be hardware. I tend to disagree with that only because it charges, syncs, restores which tells me the hardware is working fine. i keeping this in mind that it's visible in iTunes(A) and Device Manager(XP). It's not visible in My Computer, Windows, Explorer or Control Panel. I can run a third party application on the iPhone and can see photos but the application won't let me copy them. I have some important photos that I need backed up. I have tried the phone on four other computers and it doesn't show on any where as the other phone shows up and works the way it should on those four computers. Same with reinstalling the drives, first one doesn't install, second one does. That simply narrows it down to the phone. I've restored the phone and it worked perfectly replacing the photos, oh and it was also working 6 weeks ago. So what's stopping it???? Arrr... its got me. I can usually fix those type of issues.

HT203164 I have purchased several books on tape via my computer and now want to sync them to my ipod....I can't find the appropriate buttons to do that. Also though I have receipts for books purchased they are not showing up on my Itune purchased list.

I have purcase several audio books via Itunes and they are on my computer however I have been unable to figure out how to transfer (sync??) them to my Ipod. Also I have receipts for several Itune audio books but they are not showing up on my purchased list. Help!!!

lizdance40, audio books are NOT available for redownload. Books with words areavailable for redownload.
See:

In the future please do not post incorrect information

If iTunes still carries the books, they ARE available to download from the cloud, either to the computer or your iPod Touch directly.
Open iBooks on the device and tap on 'purchased'.
download.
iTunes does not garentee to carry a book forever, a serious flaw. If you can't find the book in iTunes anymore and didn't keep it on the computer, or backed up, it may be gone.
To add audio books to the iPod;
you have to check the box at the bottom section of the Books screen that says, "sync audio books"

I need to sync my iphone. After I log in to itunes I cannot find where to go to sync my phone.

I need to sync my iphone. After I log in to ITunes, where do I find sync. I am on a different computer than when I originally synced my phone so it is not coming up automatically. Even with phone plugged in to computer.

I have a mac book pro 13 inch screen, when I go into Itunes, it only shows up on 1/2 the screen, how do i make itunes show up wider

When I open Itunes it displays only on 1/2 of my computer screen, is there away that I can make it display on my full screen, check the full screen window function does not do anything, all my other's display fine it's just I tunes " Help"

Did you try dragging the corner to stretch the screen? Or the green traffic light?
If so, try pressing the green traffic light while holding the option key... or delete the .plist for iTunes or edit it manually.

You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud. The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

Please can you help me? I have a Mac Book Pro with OS X 10.7.4 and my FaceTime doesn't open anymore. It appears this sentence:"the server detected an error during the elaboration of the registration. Please try later". What happens??

I have a Mac book pro on vesion 10.6.8 and want to access icloud as it works great on my iphone 4. Not sure best way to upgrade as some of the review of Lion on the appstore are awful. Any advice

I have a Mac book pro on vesion 10.6.8 and want to access icloud as it works great on my iphone 4. Not sure best way to upgrade as some of the review of Lion on the appstore are awful. Any advice as I also have MIcrosoft word etc and don't want to have to purchase these again.

That is the best list ever for Lion compatibility!
You can also do this:
Launch the programs you know and love on your Snow Leopard Mac.
Utilities --> Activity Monitor
Under the "Kind" tab it will identify the programs running PowerPC, Intel and Intel 64.
No PowerPC apps will run under Lion.
Don't worry about Apple's system stuff like Mail, iCal, Safari.
Don't worry about the system processes, like fontd and launchd, those will be replaced if you go to Lion.
Just look for the programs that you need.

Do you have a local network setup either wired or wireless? If so, then have both computers connected to the network. Enable File Sharing on both computers in Sharing preferences. Select the startup drive on each computer. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and check the box labeled, Shared Folder.
You can now keep both computers in sync by using a third-party backup/sync utility that will work with a network setup such as:
Data Backup
Deja Vu
Silver Keeper
Retrospect
Super Flexible File Synchronizer
Synchronize Pro! X
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.

I just recently updated to the OS X soft wear and every time I go on iPhoto or iMessage my computer shuts down. This problem doesn't occur when I log into my laptop as a guest. I have a Mac book pro made in 2010.
