Ipad 2 does not show in itunes

My ipad 2 was completely dead last night so I plugged it in to charge using the 10W wall charger that came with it and noticed that it did not vibrate when I plugged it in nor did it show the lightning bolt showing it was charging. I left it alone from a few hours and when I checked, it was up to 12%. Normally a few hours will almost fully charge it. I swapped out a few different cables, chargers, and even plugged it into my mac USB, and none of them vibrated and showed the lightning bolt. When I plug it into my Mac, it does not show in iTunes at all under devices. I plugged in my iPhone and iPod and both showed instantly. I decided to leave the paid charge overnight on the wall charger to see what would happen.
This morning it was up to 53%. I updated the iPad 2 software to iOS 5.1.1, updated iTunes to 10.6.1, updated all software on my Mac (I have OS X 10.6.8) and still doesnt show in iTunes and none of the chargers or cables make it vibrate when plugged in and none show the charging bolt. I deleted iTunes and the Apple Mobile Device driver and then reinstalled thinking perhaps the mobile device driver was messed up - didnt help.
On the iPad 2, I went to settings/general/reset/reset network settings - no help.
Of course, throughout this I have reset my Mac several times, reset the iPad both by sliding the bar to shut down and by holding down the reset button & home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears, and as stated above tried several wall chargers and USB cables that works on my other i products. So I do not think its something obvious like that.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1
Mac OS X 10.6.8
ITunes 10.6.1

Let me know when you figure this out. I am experiencing the exact same situation. Just started this morning after I switched my mobileme account to icloud. I can see my iphone in itunes, but when I plug my ipad in, nothing. Not on any computer. I have always been able to sync and charge with no trouble. Now my ipad is slowly turning in to a door stop.
Help!
Thank you!

  • I installed Windows 8 and now my ipad does not show in itunes...any thoughts?

    I installed Windows 8 and now my ipad does not show in itunes...any thoughts?

    Not trying to start any argument here, but if you would have checked the requirements for using an iPad with iTunes on a computer, you would have seen that Windows 8 is not supported.
    Apple ID (required for some features)
    Internet access6
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later

    My iPad does not show in my iTunes but my iPod does. I get a message saying there is a error and a long number anyone help. Thanks

    It may have something to do with a conflict with any antivirus or security software that you may be running. I don't know if you've read this, but here is Apple's support article for Windows. You say you keep fixing the problem - I assume you mean by reinstalling iTunes?

  • IPad does not show in iTunes devices

    I wanted to install iOS 4.2 but cannot get my iPad recognized on iTunes.
    When I plugged the iPad into the MBP I get an OK tone as usual.
    It has been connected successfully in the past.
    I have restarted both my MacBook Pro and iTunes in different orders.
    My AppleTV shows up on devices every time.
    Harold

    I have tried everything and still iTunes will not recognize the iPad. From the other complaints it seems this is a big problem for many of us.
    My problems started when the iTunes v10 was introduced. I still use 9.2.1. I am waiting because I have an AppleTV1 and wanted to see how it effects others with the first version. I really like my older AppleTV and have many items loaded.

  • IPad does not show in itunes?  Touch quit too?

    After the last iTunes update my iPad and touch would not be recognized anymore in iTunes.  I have tried all recommendations suggested.  Not sure what happened?  The only other thing I noticed was that neither the iPad or the touch were able to update the last time.  This was before I updated iTunes. 

    Two very generic fixes/thoughts  ..
    Reboot your computer and reboot both devices and try again.
    Disable antivirus software and try again.

  • I connect my iPad to my PC and open iTunes, but the iPad does not show up in sidebar.  I want to sync. How do I do it?

    I have my PC on, then plug in my iPad (which is on) and open iTunes.  The iPad does not show up in the sidebar.  How do you get it to show up so that I can select the iPad and then configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes....hoping that these actually show up.
    In the manual it says "log in to your computer user account before connecting iPad".  I am the only user of this PC...does this mean some other user account.  I am confused.  I need "baby steps" to tell me how to do all this....very senior and just learning about this wonderful machine. I will very much appreciate your help.

    If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that.  If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar.  Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it.  If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
    If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

    Hi lindaasw,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Do you have the latest version of iTunes for Windows installed?  I would turn on the sidebar and the menu bar just to make sure you are seeing everything.  If the iPhone is still not recognized in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps:
