If my iphone wont connect as a device on itunes what do i do

Every time i plug my iphone into my computer it charges but itunes doesnt regognize it as a device. This only happens on my dads computer, when i tried it on my moms it works but i dont have the same playlists i want to download there. How can this be fixed?

No such luck.  I'm on my umpteenth reinstall of iTunes, with the upper/lower options executed as well.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    You will have to put your phone into recovery mode and restore the phone as new. Since you don't have a back up, you will lose all the data on your phone but you will be able to use it again.

  • Iphone wont connect to iTunes or computer wont connect to iPhone?

    Either my Iphone wont connect to itunes or my computer wont connect to iphone! My computer makes an unusual noise as I plug in a apple device, This wont let itunes pick up my devices. I have gone though all the proceedures online in which have failed. But when uninstalling Itunes, Apple mobile device was deleted in which then windows recognised my iphone and it started to charge which it did not do when I previously plugged it in. Just wondering if anyone has had similar problems and knows how to help?? Thanks

    I'd look at these options
    first,

    It that fails,
    DFU mode[1] is a state that you can put your iPhone into where it can interface with iTunes but does not load the iPhone operating system or boot loader (this is what really differs DFU mode from recovery mode). DFU stands for Device Firmware Update.
    While connected to PC, running iTunes, hold down Home and Power( button on upper right edge) button for exactly 8 seconds. 
    Release the power button.  Restore message will appear in iTunes.  The device will be recognized by iTunes, but no display will appear on the device itself.  The lack of a display on the device will verify that it is in dfu mode.

  • IPhone wont connect to iTunes, please help!

    Hi guys
    every time I connect my iPhone to the computer, iTunes doesn't seem to see it. I was getting an error about corefoundation.dll couldn't be found or something and found that another forum user said if i were to uninstall mobilemecontrolpanel then that would fix it. I didn't get the error message on start up anymore but it still wont connect. I've uninstalled iTunes as per Apple website and still nothing.
    I'm reluctant to restart my iPhone and lose everything on it
    Any suggestions?
    iPhone 3GS running OS 4.0
    iTunes 9.2.1 on windows xp
    Thank you so much
    Layth

    I know you have said you have uninstalled iTunes and Mobile Me and that didnt work. There is another thread that may help you.

    It appears Mobile Me is the culprit here.

    Hello Apple_Addict22,
    Thank you for your question. iOS 7 requires iTunes 11.1.  First, I recommend trying to obtain the update by going to the iTunes menu and selecting Check for Updates.
