Ipad will not connect to itunes after reset

I did a complete erase and reset on my first generation IPad. Now it is asking to connect to itunes, but will not connect. I have checked the itunes connection with another device ( ipod), and it is working. tried restarting both computer, and ipad ( power down) but no difference. any ideas would be appreciated.

Did you try to connect in recovery mode?

IPad will not connect to iTunes without password, but screen inoperable

After an attempted software update, the iPad will not connect to iTunes because it is password locked. But eh screen does not allow me to input the password. This is not a jailbroken iPad, but I did get a message on it that my "iPhone cannot send or receive calls without resetting." This is why I tried to sync, etc.

Try recovery mode.

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

iTunes and the App Store are two different apps/stores. I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. If you want to buy apps - go to the app store. If you want to but media - music, movies, TV shows - go to iTunes.

My iPod will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download

My iPOD will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download
I already uninstall itunes and made sure there were no file left before I installed again (it didn't appear to be any files left but music I had on it before was still there when I reinstall it)
My ipod does work on my old computer and it was working on windows 8 before I update to 8.1
I don't want to installed again because I just did that and didn't work!
I want to use my iPod on this computer and system. Can this be fix?

Hey TheBurntApple,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone connecting to iTunes for Windows. While you may have already attempted most of the steps in this article, I wished to provide it to you just in case something was omitted.

IPad will not connect to iTunes on migrated iMac

I migrated my old iMac to a new iMac.
My iPad will not connect to iTunes on the new iMac... "does not have permission"
How do I get my iPad to be recognized/associated/sync'd/etc. with iTunes on my new iMac?

I assume so. I think the Migration Assistant copies everything from the old Mac to the new Mac. I have an iTunes folder in my home directory. It contains files: iTunes library extras, iTunes library genius, iTunes music library - and folders: album artwork, iTunes music, mobile applications, and previous iTunes libraries.
When I connect my iPad, the iPad icon does not show in the left column, and I get a message "iTunes could not connect to thid iPad. You do not have permission."
FYI, I had no problem syncing my iPhone to iTunes on the new machine.

You get this message in iTunes on your computer or on the iPad itself? Did you try quitting iTunes, and restart your computer?

Not connecting to iTunes should have no bearing on not being able to use an app on your iPad - assuming that the app is actually on your iPad. What happens when you try to play the game? Did you try deleting it and reinstalling it? Did you restart your iPad or reboot the device?

IPhone will not connect to iTunes after ios 7.1.2 update

I was updating my iPhone 4s to the new software update (ios 7.1.2) and my computer fell asleep. My iPhone now is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen and when I plug it into my PC iTunes will not connect to it.
I've tried putting it into recovery mode (won't allow me to slide to power off), and I've tried iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I've also tried rebooting my computer, updating iTunes and enter DFU and Recovery modes
When plugged in my device manager recognizes that an apple device is plugged in that is in recovery mode....
I'm trying to back up my phone while it has the most recent software so I can transfer it onto my new 5s
Please help!!
iPhone 4s
Windows 7

You've tried the following procedure?
Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
If this still doesn't work, you should make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have your device evaluated.

Ipad2 will not connect to itunes after newest update

Updated Ipad2 and now itunes says it cannot connect to the Iphone??

Update!!!
Hope this helps - after spending hours on the phone with the Apple support line, I was connected with an AT&T engineer.
As it turns out, I have an original Iphone....original phones were supplied with a BLANK sim card and needed to bae activated by Itunes only. Once aan original Iphone SIM card is burned with your phone number it can your phone can NOT be updated with new soft ware via itunes or this problem will occur.
Solution - go to AT&T, they will supply with a BLANK sim card (it can NOT be tied to your phone when they issue it) and then you go home and log into itunes.
I was advised by the engineer that I should never update the software on my original iphone or this would occur.
I will post one more reply after installing a blank SIM and activating via itunes - Hope this helps others others(i am surprised that no one else has went through this and posted)

Ipad will not connect to Itunes asks me to update which Cannot

Hi
I recently plugged in ipad to my Macbook pro 3.1 (2007) running 10.8.2 - and get message cannot use ipad as need to update to Itunes 11.1 -
however this I cannot do - I tried 3 update to Mavericks , update just itunes and just yesterday again updated Itunes and these all FREEZE computer totally , I spent Days trying to work out what Caused the Freeze and trying every fix out there and only thing worked was Format HDD and install from Backup (timemachine or cloned HDD i have Backups) .
So the Computer Freezes Immediately After Startup in normal and safe mode if I put on Mavericks and OR itunes higher then what I got now (11.02 )
Now this is not a Problem for the computer - just turn off updates and I am happy , But now cannot use ipad , I have music , books, lots stuff sync from itunes .
Does anyone know how I can use Ipad3 (fully updated ) -with Itunes without updating Itunes - or maybe roll back Ipad system so can use ??
I had a google but could not find answer - everyone says update itunes on Computer which is one thing I cannot do .
So either I need to do a Update to Mavericks or just Itunes or something so can use ipad again ?
Any ideas appriciated as i cannot be only person with this Problem as Computer freezing with new itunes common ??
Thanks Mark

Hi Alfred
thanks for the reply ,
HDD capacity is fine have a 1TB inside and has about 500GB free space - so that should not be a problem .
Seem's that the new Itunes causes a lot of freezing problems which i think is my problem , as Mavericks has the new itunes in - hence freezes computer - or just a Itunes update also freezes computer ?? I have spent days and days trying to fix the computer freezing with no luck - so rolled back to the 10.8.2 I had on a back up and that works fine and turned off an more updates ..
But because of this cannot use itunes and I need to to connect to the ipad - so any suggestions appriciated
Cheers Mark

I have an iPod Nano 5th Gen and it will not connect to iTunes after I insert the cable.

I just received this iPod from a friend and iTuneswill not detect it after I connect it using the cables. All it does is charge the iPod.

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?
How to reset iPod
Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

7th Generation iPod Nano will not connect to iTunes after iTunes 11.1.4.62 update

I updated iTunes to the 11.1.4.62 version last night. Now, when I connect my iPod Nano 7th gen device, iTunes gives me a message stating that an iPod has been connected but could not be indentifed properly, try reconnecting, unistall then reinstall iTunes, blah blah. Tried all that and none of it works. iPod worked fine on this computer on iTunes until this update. Windows 8.1 system.
