Ipad 2 and 4S no longer seen by itunes

Recently my Ipad 2 and Iphone 4s have quit being recognized by Itunes 12.0.1.26 on 27" Imac i7 running 10.9.5. Had been working fine previously. Now everytime I connect Ipad it asks to "Trust" computer. Once trusted it shows up in Iphoto, but not in Itunes. I have tried several Apple branded cords and reset the Ipad.
All updates have been made. The same thing is happening to the Iphone. Please do not tell me to see the article on restarting the ipad and the iphone, I've done all that several times.
I have looked through all the current discussions and this issue does not seem to be solved at all by anyone.
A little hepl here would be greatly appreciated. On the other hand my Ipad Air and 4s on my Yosemite running i7 (different computer) is working fine.

Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall iTunes? I'm not familiar with all the ins and outs on a mac, but when it's doing this on a PC the suggestion is to uninstall iTunes, Apple mobile device driver and apple application support, then reinstall iTunes. Something gets messed up with the drivers where iTunes thinks it's updated but really hasn't so your machine is trying to use an old driver that isn't compatible.

I know this says iPod but the premise should be the same. Perhaps something in there can help you.

  • IPhone update failed and is no longer seen by iTunes, what next?

    I applied the latest update to my phone and it failed.
    iTunes suggested that I restore the device.
    The restore operation failed as well.
    Now my iPhone is no longer detected iTunes.
    It does not appear as a removeable drive or camera to Windows.
    Online troubleshooting failed to help.
    The only reaction that I observed is that Windows informes me that I had connected a high speed device to a slow (USB 1.0) port and suggested connecting it to another port.
    Next I am going to take it to the AT&T store where I got it and see if they can help.

    You may have already done this, but check out this kb..it discusses "recovery mode"

    my computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone 3g is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library without losing everything? How do I delete old audiobooks from my iphone?

    You can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • Started with iPod/iTunes (home pc) several years ago. Added iPhone, iPad, laptop and office pc.  Have multiple iTunes/iMusic folders

    Started out with iPod/iTunes on a home pc several years ago. Added iPhone, iPad, laptop and office pc.  Have multiple iTunes/iMusic folders on all 3 computers -- using iCloud to access media on iPhone/iPad.  What's the best way consolidate songs, movies, books, etc prior to phasing out home pc?  Which machine (laptop or office pc) is best to use as the master host for iTunes/iMusic going forward? Don't want to lose anything or create numerous duplicates. 

    I finally resolved this... by changing everything over to a new laptop.  I had been running iTunes on a Vista desktop, and moved Outlook and iTunes to a Win7 x64 laptop.  Once I got everything installed, I copied the iTunes folder to the laptop, transferred the purchases, backed up the iPhone and iPad to the new iTunes, and then synched them.  Set iTunes to sync Calendar, Contacts, Mail, and Notes on both, and resynched.  Once this was done and I verified that everything was intact on both the iPhone and the iPad, I tried entering a calendar event on the phone and then did another sync.  The event showed up in Outlook.  I then deleted the event from Outlook and did another sync and the event was gone from the iPhone.  Did the same with the iPad and got the same results.  So this apparently was something related to the desktop or Vista; I never got it resolved on the desktop.  Not sure what it could be, but now that it's resolved I'm going to leave it alone.  Maybe after I upgrade to an iPhone 5, I might try messing with the iPhone 4s on the Vista desktop.  If I do, and happen to get it resolved, I'll surely post something regarding that.

  • Ipad mini and iphone no longer syncs "last page used" of my ebooks

    My ipad mini and iphone recently stopped syncing the page locations for my kindle e-books. Each time i go from one device to the other i find my book on the same page it was when i last used that device and when I tap the sync circle icon it tells me that i am "currently at the furtest location across all your devices." Not! it used to sync them but now it doesn't and I don't know why.

    Sounds like the problem is with the phone. Do a hard reset and go from there.

  • TS1368 I am using iPad 3 and I can not connect to iTunes Store,if I want to download it say you can not connect

    My question has not be answers yet,I am using iPad 3 and I can not get to connect to iTunes Store to download anything.

    The iPad Screen is almost square, HD TVs are rectangular so will never be full screen.  When watching movies, the movies native aspect ratio will be used rather than the iPads screen aspect ratio so will look full screen if the movie is full screen, but most likely will be seen in wide screen letter box format. with black bars across the top and bottom as that what most movies from iTunes are in, format wise

  • Update for iPad 2 and iPhone 4 is freezing in iTunes.

    Hi, This afternoon I connected my iPad to my PC(laptop running 32bit Vista) and it wanted to update software. I allowed this and about 1/5 of the way through updating the iPad 2 iTunes has just frozen.So I unplugged and of course my iPad 2 wants to restore when I reconnect.  I called the support center and they informed me that it may have been a slow connection or that it could have been because I had other programs open on my desktop. When I was speakking to the support center I informed them that it was not a problem with iTunes because I had updated my iPhone 4. But I have realised that I had not updated the phone for a while and.... What do you know!!!!! I now have a iPad 2 that wants to restore itself and I cannot. And I have a iPhone that, as I write this is stuck trying to download the latest software.
    I have worked out that both the iPad and iPhone have been backed up prior to the software being updated.
    What is wrong and is it a problem with iTunes and do I need to re-install this.
    I need this fixed asap as I am leaving Australia for 3 weeks in the UK.
    Thanks, Glen.

    I to have a new ipad2 and each time I plug into PC, it say to update & download or just download, I've done both and a few times now. Each time it gets .5 way and stops due to losing com's with sever. Each time is says the download/update it going to take 9-11 hrs,
    Also when ever watching YouTube or other videos it is all way buffeting why......

  • HT201413 iso 6.1 has corrupted ipad 2 and will not allow backup from itunes to be downloaded

    I have down loaded iso 6.1 and it has corrupted my ipad which now is continually in reboot and when i try to down load backup from it tunes it runs for 45 mins then says error try again. Any suggestions please

    I just did mine today as well. I'm getting the same thing. It keeps telling me the ipad 6.1 software was corrupted during the download. I tried it on my MacBook Pro and on my vista laptop and they both give me the same message. But the message is blaming it on my Internet connection which is BS!  My iPhone 5 did the same download on the same connection it went through flawlessly.  Apple must have sent out a bugging update that effects ipad 2 and there's just not enough people complaining about it yet for them to even care. Now my ipad is basically useless and I know they won't want to help me unless I pay for the support

  • I have tried signing into my apple id on my ipad mini and says it cant connect to itunes store

    Hey,
    i have tried to sign in to my apple id on my ipad mini and it says it cant connect to itunes store

    There is a difference between not being able to sign into your Apple ID and not being able to connect to the iTunes Store. You can be signed into your ID and still not be able to connect to the store.
    I will assume that you are actually signed in - Settings> iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. That's one place where you sign into your ID.
    If you can't connect to the iTunes Store....

  • First time turning iPad on and it will not connect to iTunes. Help??

    I just powered up my iPad 2 and plugged the USB into my pc to sync everything with iTunes, and my computer (and iTunes) is not picking up the iPad. iTunes was previously on my computer before, so I just downloaded the most recent version of iTunes. I have tried using a different cord (my iPod touch cord) but that did not help. I have also restarted my computer and turned the iPad on and off several times. If there is something else I should try could someone please let me know?

    Restore the iPad from the computer to which the iPad is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPad into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
