Hey nataliexcupcakes,
If your iPhone isn't appearing under Devices in iTunes after you connect it, and it can't be restored, you'll want to follow along with this article for a resolution:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

OK. So this started just, maybe 2 days ago, and I haven't done anything with it. Actually, it just started happening AFTER I updated iTunes (Silly iTunes!), which would have been 2 days ago. I really need some help!
Hi joy145,
If you are having issues syncing and would like to manually manage your content, you may find the following article helpful:
Apple Support: Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
If you are still having issues or continually prompted to erase and sync, you may want to try restoring your iPhone to factory settings before moving your data over (either via syncing or manually):
Apple Support: Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
(Note: Restoring iOS software deletes all your data and content from your device, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar info.)

Ok so i'm trying to restore my iPod but every time at a certain point the iPod software update would freeze and says to make sure i'm connected to the internet and I am. Help me please
Let's try the following document with that one.
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
(If the "Automatically detect settings" checkbox is already checked, try unchecking and rechecking it and clicking OK.) -
My 6th Generation Nano Shuts down my Thinkpad, I've tried uninstalling iTunes, turning off auto sync'ing and restoring my ipod, but every time I plug in my iPod, my whole pc goes blue and then reboots in safe mode. Please Help. Thanks.
Hello kidmango,
I am going to have to agree with planb77. Look into other drivers in your computer causing the issue, not just the nano's drivers.
It is possible that security software is the culprit. Use this:
iTunes: Troubleshooting security software issues
You may have to restore your computer to a previous point. From before the issue started. Contact computer manufacture or Windows for steps, or do a search with a search engine.
I would test the ipod on a known good computer to see if its the ipod is the issue. My gut says no. You can set a reservation at an Apple Retail Store. Apple.com/retail .You can also test a known good ipod on your computer.
Hope this helps.

I'm trying to setup a printer go wireless through my airport extreme, but every time I try to print the printing file gets paused. I'm in loop. PLEASE HELP! (The printer is a Brother 7020 monochrome)
I had the exact same problem
It turns out I was using a 20 foot USB cable between the printer and the Airport Extreme and the signal had become to weak to work. Try using nothing more than a 6 foot cable or try a new cable -

Is Find My Phone turned on?
You'll have to login to iCloud.com, from any computer, locate, then erase your phone. Once done, restore from backup, if you have one.
That's the only way for you to fix this. -
Ok I have an Iphone 5.
My husband installed IO.7.
(He's no help. He is a Pc user).
I do not know which number after that.
I bought a desktop 27.5.
I was told at the Apple store to go home and hook up my IPhone 5 to my desktop.
To connect to I tunes,plug in my phone to the back of my desktop, and to follow instructions.
I could not find any instructions anywhere in Itunes.
Then I happened on instructions in Safari.
Are you kidding me. I could not understand what to do. Except to go into my phone and click on to Icloud
backup in settings. But, as soon as I put the usb cord into the desktop, it took me away froom the site, and the words backup now!
I bought Apple because I realize, I have no technical experience!
HELP!!??First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
What computer do you have? -

i have tried to restore my iphone but keep getting error 1015 any suggestion
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
