Ipad not detected by itunes

Ipad not detected by itunes...clues to why?

Sometimes all that it takes is to quit iTunes, restart your computer and reset your iPad. Maybe try switching USB ports as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button.
Sometimes, it isn't quite that easy and that is why these kb articles may come in handy.

Cannot Activate [New] Ipad - Ipad Not Detected on iTunes

I received my iPad through the mail, yesterday, and have been unable to use it due to it's inability to reach the activation server ('Could Not Activate iPad' error). I read via the forum that it could be related to a server overdrive, however, it is now 24 hrs later and I am still unable to activate it.
My WiFi Connect is perfect; all 3 bars. The iPad looks to have the new IOS 7.
I decided to go forth suggestion of activating the iPad via iTunes, so I downloaded it onto my laptop, following all of the reccommended steps. Nothing happened. I clicked Help>Run Diagnostics, everything is fine and dandy except for one test result stating 'No Ipad, Ipod, etc. Dectected'.
How am I to activate my iPad without the option of using WiFi, nor iTunes. Help!

Make sure that the version of iTunes on your laptop is iTunes 11.1 or later. If not update iTunes.
Try resetting the iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Then try activating again.
Also check to make sure your Wi-Fi network router is not running a firewall. That might interfere with activation. Once your phone is up and working you can turn the firewall back on. Also turn off any virus protection software on your computer during the activation process.

Ipad and Iphone will not detect via Itunes

Ok here is the issue,
I have IPhone 4 Verizon and Ipad 2 3g Verizon.
My Ipad2 screen broke and I received a warranty Ipad 2 but my Dellinspiron with the Intel 3400 chip will not detect on iTunes.
Windows 7 see it and I can pull photos off. I worked with Apple onissue and at store with 10 reps. my old I pad detects just fine and my IPhone but any other
IPhone or I pad will not detect. I have tried and wiped ITunes, QuickTimeect ect and even went into registry and deleted all files and still same issue.
It’s boiling down to the Intel chip 3200 and its almost lookingfor a certain IPhone or I pad and will not detect any other but original phoneor pad.
If anyone is experiencing a similar issue let me know. I have been allthe way up the ladder at both apple and dell and still the issue looms.
Thanks
Phil
If any other info is needed let me know. I have both the diagnostic test for my laptop and itunes.
I can post diagnostic from CPU if needed.

This is reported quite often.. more often the iphone than the ipad.
Reset the TC and do the setup again. This time setup wireless manually.. use no spaces and only alphanumeric characters in any name and password.. TC name, wireless name, wireless password tc password if you set one.
Set wireless to manual not auto, and give 5ghz a different name.
Set channels.. this is the important part for iphone as it can only use 2.4ghz.. so set channel 1, 6, 11 in turn. These are the only non-overlapping channels.
Set wpa2 security.
You should be able to get the iphone to connect.. if not remove the security until you do and try again.

IPad does not detected by iTunes on Updated Windows 7

Hi All,
Since i updated my MS Windows 7 with the latest patches, my iPad can not detected by iTunes on my PC.
The USB ports on my PC were fine, the peripheral (eksternal HDD; USB Flash disk; Printer) still working fine.
The USB sinc cable data is also working fine when i charge the iPad directly from wall mounth port.
Do you have a same experience?
Please advise....
Thanks and regards

Folks,
I had this problem with my PC (windows 7, 64-bit) and my iPad. After messing with it for a long time, I finally found the answer (bad USB driver). The following two step process should help resolve these kinds of problems more quickly.
The first step is to verify that the iPad (or iPhone) is really connected to your computer. This can be (really) checked using a program called USBDeview. You can get this (very small) program from http://download.cnet.com/USBDeview/3000-2094_4-10614190.html or http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html. Don't worry, it's not Spyware or Malware.
Just run the program and sort on the 'Connected' column. If your iPad or iPhone doesn't show up as Yes (under 'Connected') then your iDevice is not properly connected to your computer. Could be a cable problem. Could be an iDevice problem. Could be a USB hub problem. Note that your iDevice might be listed as what it is (iPad or iPhone) or it might be listed as 'Apple Mobile Device USB Driver' in the 'Description' column.
Apple has a number of ideas to resolve this sort of basic connectivity issue, including switching USB ports, resetting your iDevice, rebooting your iDevice, rebooting your computer, etc. You will need to try them until your iDevice shows up in USBDeview as 'Yes' under Connected.
If you iDevice shows up as 'Yes' under connected, it should also be visible in the Device Manager (found in the Windows 7 Control Panel under Hardware and Sound). You might find it under Portable Devices or it might be under Universal Serial Bus controllers.
The iDevice may or may not show up in the Windows Explorer. On some machines it does, on others it does not. Why is not clear.
If the Idevice is properly known to Windows and iTunes can't see it, then any number of other things could be wrong. Apple has a list. See the very useful page over at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538. Testing shows that the Apple Mobile Device service must be running. Check this using Task Manager (started by right clicking the taskbar). Note that the iPod service and the iphlpsvc service must also be running. These services have different names under the Processes table versus the Services tab of Task Manager.
AppleMobileDeviceService.exe - Apple Mobile Device
iPodService.exe - iPod Service
ItunesHelper.exe - iphlpsvc
Step 4 of http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 checks if the Apple Mobile Device USB is installed. This is essential and a common source of problems. In at least some cases, Windows will install the 'MTP USB' driver. Indeed, Windows will reinstall this driver if you uninstall it. The MTP USB driver is essentially a Windows bug (possibly caused by Microsoft). You MUST replace the MTP USB driver with the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. Step 4 explains how to do this. Note that you MUST use the 'Have Disk' approach. Otherwise, Windows will just reinstall the invalid MTP driver.
The Apple doc indicates that you can find the correct driver at C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. Perhaps this is correct on some systems. You may find the correct driver in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.
iTunes could make this a lot easier by checking if the iDevice is known to Windows (what USBDevier does) and if the Apple Mobile Device USB driver is properly installed for the iDevice. Sadly it doesn't perform either check. Note that iTunes does if some of the related services (see above) are actually running.

My mini ipad isnt detected by itunes, but it is detected by my computer , please someone help me to solve this problem

Disconnect other USB devices from your computer and connect iPad to a different USB 2.0 port on your computer (not on your keyboard).
Turn iPad off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds, until a red slider appears. Then slide the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Restart your computer. Then reconnect iPad to your computer.

Ipad Not Detecting Win7

My new Ipad2 is not detecting inside Itunes, and my Iphone4 does. Have tried multiple usb cords and all same outcome.. This is the first time i've tried connecting the Ipad to my laptop, and again, all my other devices are detected within Itunes (My 2 iphone 4's and 2 Ipod touch devices)
Hope theres an easy fix, thanks!

Same situation. My Ipad2 is undetected in last iTunes version (10.6.0.40) in my desktop (Windows XP SP 3 32 bits). Same cable get to detect my iPhone 4S. I have tried everything (drivers, reboot, iPad reboot) that was posted in many forums. Many services shoud be active (Bonjour, ...), but nothing works. I've got connect iPad using my laptop Windows 7 64 bits with a fresh iTunes setup.
I advise you to do the same. It's easy transfer your movie, apps and songs, because you can have until 5 authorized computers with same songs, movies and apps.

IPad not recognized by iTunes

I have the following problem:
My new iPad is not connecting to iTunes. When I insert the USB cable I hear the USB-connect sound of windows, but in iTunes nothing happens.
However my previous iPad and iPhone are connecting without any problems. I followed all the steps in the guide on the Apple Support page, including completely deleting and reinstalling iTunes. Nothing helped.
My stuff:
OS: Windows 7
Itunes: latest version
iPad with retina display, iOS 6.1 - the new one that will not connect
iPad 2, iOS 6.1 - connecting without problems
IPhone 4, iOS 6.1 - connecting without problems
Can anyone help me and solve this problem of my new iPad not connecting to iTunes?

I found a solution. It seems that Windows had a setting selected that drivers are not automatically installed if not available on the computer. So I changed this setting and my iPad was immediately recognized.
For people with the same problem: I went to: Control Panel > Devices and printers. Under Unknown I saw my iPad, so I right clicked and selected: Solve problems. Then it said something about missing drivers so I chose to install them. In addition the problem solve wizard pointed me to the setting in windows that drivers are not automatically installed.

IPod not playing songs/ not detected in iTunes!

Okay. I've been searching for days in forums, etc for a solution to no avail.
I have a 4GB ipod nano 3rd gen.
I run Windows Vista. I updated my iTunes to version 8 and plugged in my iPod to charge it. First time charging the iPod in this computer running Vista. Every other time I would charge in my other computer running XP.
When I connected the iPod I recieved the message saying the iPod may have disc problems. I cancelled the message. I recieved a message asking if I would like to sync the songs to or from the iPod. I chose to sync the songs from my iPod onto my computer (again, first time using this Vista computer).
After syncing the songs onto my Vista computer I noticed it had not synced all the songs. I ejected the iPod. Plugged it back in. This time when the message prompted about the disc needing repair I chose yes.
My iPod was not detected by iTunes, and has not been from that point on. Furthermore, I cannot play songs from my iPod. I can power it on, scroll through songs, etc, but when I choose a song to play it either flashes the album cover then that screen goes away right away, or it freezes for about ten seconds, in which time if I circle the wheel I hear my click volume going up and down but nothing on screen is happening at all. Another weird thing is I can load the Quiz Show game that plays clips of music and has you guess what they are, but when I play the game now it's just the Quiz Show music the whole time and none of my songs will play.
This is really weird and I don't know why no one has posted a solution on any websites yet. I have read so many differrent threads on so many differrent websites, but no one can answer my question.

Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
