My ipad doesn't appear in iTunes. I have followed the Apple troubleshooting tips and step by step guide but it is still not there

My iPad doesn't appear in iTunes. I have followed the Apple troubleshooting guide, step by step. I have rebooted both devices, checked that I have a USB 2.0 and still it doesn't appear under devices. The iPad shows as a camera in iPhoto and downloads the photos but doesn't show as a device.

Do you have a PC? if so, go into the control panel, look for the add/remove programs. Look for one named something like 'apple mobile device support'. remove it and restart your computer. then plug your device in and see if the driver installs.

What is your old laptop? PC? Mac?

Hello,
Take a look at the Apple support article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3274, iPad: Basic troubleshooting. In particular the section "If iPad doesn't appear in iTunes or you can't sync iPad" might be useful as it leads to a Troubleshooting Assistant.

IPod doesn't appear in iTunes

My iPod Touch doesn't appear in ITunes, so of course I can't sync it.
Now, my iPod nano syncs just fine with the same cable and USB connection, so the problem must be with the iPod touch.
When I plug it in, I get that little "chirp" and the battery indicator appears on the screen, but that's it.
Any ideas what's going on? What should I do?

Try here. The iPod touch (and iPhone and iPad) use different drivers than the Nano.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

I click add folder but it doesn't appear in Itunes

So I go to file add folder to library,
Choose the file
Hit OK
and it doesn't appear in iTunes...
can any one help

It will be recognised as a camera if you have photos on that were taken with it, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc i.e. it is how you can copy them to your computer - but that shouldn't stop it appearing in iTunes.
Try turning the camera notification off disconnect and re-connect your iPad and see if it then appears in iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500
If that doesn't work then there is iPad/PC/iTunes troubleshooting in this page which might help http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

I have a MacBook Pro, I want to copy Itunes files to an SD card to play in my car, the SD Card doesn't appear in Itunes when I insert it, and I don't know how to convert the files to the correct format, can anyone help?

I have a MacBook Pro, I want to copy Itunes files to an SD card to play in my car, the SD Card doesn't appear in Itunes when I insert it, and I don't know how to convert the files to the correct format, can anyone help?
Thank you

So it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB

HT1386 My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?

Hi, My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?
Documents say
Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it....
But I can't see my iPad Mini in iTunes.
And my Ipad (Settings, General, iTunes Wifi Sinc) shows a message :" Sync will resume when xxx(my PC with iTunes) is available "...
Both are in the same network,
Ipad mini is is plugged in to power
. iTunes is open on the computer
what can i Do ???

Hi Skydiver119, and tks for four interest.
I have done exactly as you say, but it does not work for me.
You indicated " Navigate to the info tab and scroll down. There'll be a check box for 'sync over wifi' or something to that effect. Check that box and sync to affirm your choice."
I navigated to Summary tab (not Info Tab) and checked "Sync with this ipad over Wi-Fi"
I disconnect the wire,
and my iPad disappears from my iTunes screen.
in my iPad ->Settings -> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync -> says " Sync will resume when (my PC) is available.
So, I can not sync via wi-fi
I appreciate if you can help me.

IPhone 3G doesn't appear in iTunes 10.6.3

After upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 a few weeks ago, I was unable to see my iPhone 3G in iTunes. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, which fixed the problem, and I've synced once or twice since then. Today the device once again doesn't show up in iTunes. The cable works, since iPhoto (7.1.5) recognizes the device and downloads photos just fine. iTunes may not be totally to blame, since it can recognize my old iPod (1.1.2). The phone is on iOS 4.2.1. Restarting the phone and the computer made no difference. Any ideas for fixes?

Apple's support is worthless - it tells you what programs are needed on your computer and how to find if they are running, but fails to tell you how to install what might be missing. My iPhone would synch fine until I updated to iTunes 7, but now my computer thinks my phone is a camera and doesn't appear on iTunes. None of the support pages provide any help. It appears that Apple has adopted the Microsoft model for customer disservice! Any third party assistance would be greatly appreciated.

My ipad does not appear in itunes

my ipad does not appear in itunes but the computer recognises it

I had the same problem. found a dozen different solutions in various forums. None worked.
One of the official responses TS1538 came very close and sounded promising. I found that the usb device did not appear in device manager. The ipad appeared only in the imaging devices.
The instructions were to right click on the entry in images and update the driver, pointing at
program files\common files\apple\drivers\usbaapl.inf.
This told me that my device was not found in the driver. date on the files was 2009. date on the files in another pc which worked was 2011.
I had already re-installed itunes, which I thought should install the necessary driver.
Decided to fool it. copied the files in the above folder and then deleted them. Then re-installed itunes again.
Fixed.
So why doesnt itunes installation over-ride the old files?
Why doesnt apple tell us about this fix.
Why did I buy and apple?

IPhone doesn't appear in iTunes - tried everything

Hi there,
ok, my 3G iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes!!! I have tried reinstalling iTunes, removing the AppleMobileDevice extension, numerous restarts, hard reset the phone a couple of times. I deleted a podcast I tried to download over the air, deauthorised and authorised my iMac. Nothing!
Any other ideas. My phone does appear in iPhoto when opened. I am really lost now. I did change my AppleID recently, is that it?
Please help. I am going to try another Mac this lunch time, see if that helps. Perhaps its the phone?
Thanks!!

Yahooo! Its fixed. At the direction of an iPhone Developer (thanks to Steve Troughton-Smith!) I installed (or possibly reinstalled) iPhoneSystemComponents.pkg and now I can sync and so on!
