    Hey there Kellee,
    It sounds like the device drivers for your iPhone are working in Windows, but the phone is not showing in iTunes. You should be able to get that showing again with the steps in this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    Start with these three steps, and there are more in the article if you need them.
    1. Update iTunes
    Check that you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer. In iTunes, select "Check for updates" in the Help menu.
    2. Check the USB cable
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might support only charging those products (and not transmitting data) or they might work only with the product with which they were sold. Using one of these cables to sync could cause issues. If you are using a third-party case, such as an extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    iOS devices require Apple Mobile Device Support, which should be automatically installed with iTunes. To verify whether it is installed, follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below.
    Windows XP: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Open the "Add or Remove Programs" control panel and verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Click "Uninstall a program" (or if using Windows Vista's Classic View of the Control Panel, click "Programs and Features"). Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
    Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right corner, click the magnifying glass, type Control Panel,and press Return. Click "Uninstall a program". Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
    If Apple Mobile Device Support is not listed, remove iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Application Support, and then reinstall iTunes. Follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below:
    Reinstall iTunes for Windows XP
    Reinstall iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    If after reinstalling iTunes Apple Mobile Device Support is still not installed, follow steps in Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows.

  • My iPad will show up in my computer, but will not show up in iTunes.

    I have windows 8 and the latest software of iTunes on my computer. When I plug my iPad in, it shows up in my computer, but it will not show up in iTunes. I have tried everything besides resetting my iPad from the troubleshoot guide on the apple website. My mom just got an iPad mini for christmas and iTunes will not recognize her iPad either. I don't know what else to do.

  • It's not letting me play my songs in itunes. They are all listed but will not play

    Why will itunes not let me play my songs?  I see all my purchases listed in gray but it will not let me look at them or play them from my music.

    Now I don't know what to do. If anyone can help with this that would be awesome.
    If the problem is in the "Event" then it sounds as if the thumbnail files have become corrupted for some reason. You could try deleting them from the appropriate "iMovie Events" folder and then closing and re-opening the application. This will force the application to re-generate the thumbnails.

  • I connect my Iphone 5 to my laptop and it will connect to my computer but will not show up on my itunes why is this? i have tried everything that other people are saying but nothing is helping.

    HI so i connect my phone to my computer and everything works but it wont connect to itunes for some reason but did just a few weeks ago. I did something where i lost all my photoes and it reset my phone to waht it once was so i wonder if that was the cause but i dont know. help would be very much apprecieated this college student is getting super frustrated.

    Since no one here can possibly know what you specifically mean by "tried everything that other people are saying", no one can determine what you did wrong.  Also, you didn't say what computer OS you use.
    Read and follow ALL recomendations in the following aritcle appropriat for your computer:

  • I just bought a song on itunes and it downloaded it but for some reason is not playing, does anybody know why ??

    i just bought a song on itunes and it downloaded it but for some reason is not playing. o you know why?

    - Try a reset. it cures many ill and nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Does it play in iTunes on the computer?
    - Delete the song and redownload it by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Ask iTunes for a redownload.

  • I just bought a song from iTunes on my iPhone and accidentally stopped the download before it finished. How do I continue the download?

    I just bought a song from iTunes on my iPhone and accidentally stopped the download before it finished. How do I continue the download?
    It shows it in my music but is a light shaded grey. So I may not access the song. I tried repurchesing the song but iTunes won't let me.

        I had the same problem and solved it for myself, and I have a iphone 4s. I went to my songs and deleted the light grey songs then went to the itunes store, and selected more, then selected purchased. I scrolled down to the songs that were a light grey in my music, and pushed the download button ( icloud symbol with arrow on it) ,now my songs are successfully downloaded and ready to listen to any time!

  • I bought a song, and it says the file is corrupted and will not download what should i do?

    I bought a song, and it says the file is corrupted and will not download what should i do?

    If you see the "Purchased" option on the main screen of the iTunes Store, here's what I'd do:
    1) Go into your library and delete the file if it downloaded. If not, go to your downloads and delete it from there to stop it from download.
    2) Go to the Purchased pane in the main iTunes Store section, locate the item, and try the download again.
    Also, you may wish to turn off any anti-virus or anti-malware programs before you try this again, as that sometimes is what can be blocking the download. Otherwise, contact iTunes Store Support:

  • My ipod shuffle will connect to itunes on computer but will not fully charge and will not play songs

    My Ipod shuffle was washed in a washing machine but dried completely. Now it will connect to my itunes on my computer but will not completely charge or play songs. Can anyone tell me if this is a lost cause and I should buy a new one or is there hope that I can fix this.

    Moisture will cause short circuits, so the battery is being affected.  The audio output is also affected.  You really can't tell if it is completely dry, on the inside.  So, it's possible the current condition will improve if it is left alone to dry out for while longer.  It is also possible that moisture (and short circuits) caused permanent damage.
    Since it is recognized in iTunes, you can try doing a Restore (from the shuffle's Summary or Settings tab).
    There is nothing else you can do (actively) to fix it, so if you want to have a usable shuffle now, you'll need to get a new one.  You can leave this one alone for a month or so (in a dry well-ventilated location), and try it again.  If it works, you'll have a new shuffle and a backup.
