IPad2 is seen as a camera in Windows XP and not recognized

I've been trying to sync my iPad2 to iTunes on my Windows XP work laptop.  I managed to get it to work before but for some reason it will no longer sync and is recognizing the iPad2 as a camera now rather than an iPad.  iTunes no longer sees the device and I can't sync my work calendar. 
Any ideas?

I have the same issue, I set my iPad2 to sync over wifi - but the PC now no longer sees it, and the only answer I've seen on the boards is to plug the iPad in via a USB cable and uncheck the box for wireless syncing... but... it's not recognizing the iPad via USB either, simply as a camera device.
... you can see the problem here, I'm sure :-)
If it isn't recognized, I don't ever see the iPad in my iTunes in order to turn off wifi sync - and on the iPad itself there is no visible way to switch it back either
Any ideas?

    This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
    or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
    Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
    or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
    And here is a great video tutorial on how to use the converter.

  • Windows 8.1 not recognizing Webcams

    Has this problem of Windows 8.1 not recognizing webcams been fixed yet?
    I updated to 8.1 and my webcam was not recognised (Microsoft Lifecam Cinema) I thought my cam may be faulty so bought a new com (Logitech C270) same problem.
    So finally I reinstalled Windows 8 at the cost of losing every thing on my hard drive. I want update as I liked most of 8.1 but will not until I can use my webcams.
    I went through all the rigmarole of reinstaling drivers etc. So please dont give be the stock answer of installation as its already been done.
    All I need to know is if Microsoft has fixed this problem or not.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    With so many brands of webcams and cameras available, there are many reasons why something might not work. Each brand is different, so it's a good idea to check the manufacture's website for user guides and troubleshooting help.
    I checked Windows Compatibility Center, found Logitech C270 Webcam is compatible with Windows 8.1. However, some people still had problem with Windows 8.1.
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/CompatCenter/ProductDetailsViewer?Name=Logitech%20C270%20Webcam&vendor=Logitech&Locale=1033%2C2057%2C3081%2C4105%2C16393&ModelOrVersion=V-U0018&BreadCrumbPath=Logitech%20C270&LastSearchTerm=Logitech%2BC270&Type=Hardware&tempOsid=Windows%208.1
    If you have any problem with Webcam in Windows 8.1. You can provide as more as details about your problem, then we can work together to resolve this problem.

  • 2 problems, iPod nano battery depleted and not recognized by Windows, help!

    Earlier this morning. At first when I connected the usb to the computer I got the screen in the nano that said "apple.com/ipod/support" or something like that, with the folder/exclamation mark icon. It was charging but I disconnected it cause I had to go. I tried to do the same at night but this time is when it's totally dead, and not recognized at all. What can I do now?
    I havent used the nano in a while and the battery is depleted, so I tried to charge it but neither windows or itunes or the updater/restore recognize it.
    I'm on a laptop, I already tried most of the stuff in the faqs but it wont work.

    i kind of have the same porblem, my klaptop does regcognize the ipod on "my computer" but the iPod dosen't shows up in iTunes, and i have tried almost everything in the faq that show how to fix the problem, but it still dosen't work....

  • IPod touch shows up as a camera in windows XP but not at all in itunes

    I have a first generation 8GB Itouch. It's currently running the software version 1.1.4(4A102). I'm running Itunes 7.7. When i plug my touch into my computer it will charge and a box pops up asking what i want to do with the pictures. i don't do anything with them and it shows up in my computer as a camera. i load itunes and it doesn't show at all. i realize it could be a problem with not haveing the current software but how can i get it if the computer doesn't link. i've tried the article about making your itouch not look like a camera but it didn't make a difference and the computer sees it as one still. i tried the article about shows in windows not itunes to no avail and i tried the less drastic measures from the doesn't show in windows or itunes. i know my cable and computer work and i have the most recent update. i'm really desperate for an answer. please help

    Hi
    I was having the same problem for ages. I followed a apple advice section telling me to check the processes for apple mobile device manager, and check for the applusb.sys driver, and they were both there and working. I would advise you to do this. If they are not showing, then the article says to re-install itunes. here is the article by the way. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1852
    However this did not fix my problem. So I decided to try re-installing the actual driver, instead of the whole of itunes. Try this, as it worked for me
    (I don't no how good with computers you are, so I'll put simple steps, sorry if it seems patronising!)
    1) Go to start, and Run
    2) Type "devmgmt.msc" without speech marks
    3) A screen with your computers name at the top, with seperate sections for things like keyboards and moniters should have come up. At the bottom you should see Universal serial bus (usb). Expand it and look for apple ipod, or somthing similar (there's prob only be one by apple) If it's not there make sure your ipod is plugged in!
    4) Right click and go to properties
    5) Click the 'Driver' tab
    6) You should see 'Roll back changes' as an option. Click that and accept/press yes to the prompts that pop up.
    7) Wait for a few seconds (may take a min or two) until your back to the previous screen described in step 3
    8) Now Under 'portable devices', apple ipod should be listed. Right click that, and choose 'Update driver software' Choose to automatically search.
    9) Again wait, and when it's complete Apple iPod should show under universal seriel bus (usb) section again.
    10) Exit out of device manager, and open up itunes. Your ipod should now be there. You may need to un plug it and plug it in.
    What this effectivly does is re-install the device used to search for iPods by itunes. For some reason, mine and probably yours ran into problems.
    Hope you found this helpful, and I'll check back later if you have any problems or questions.

  • HT201302 I have a large video on my ipad that I would like to transfer to a computer.  But my computer (using various software that came with Windows 7) does not see this video, although it sees all the other videos on my ipad.  This video is too big to t

    I have a large video on my ipad that I need to transfer to my PC (a window 7).  I could also use a windows 8 if that would help.  But all of the applications I have tried do not see this large video (52 mins) even though they transfer smaller videos fine.  The ipad will not let me trim the video, saying it is too large.  This is true even though I only want to trim the original, and not create a new video.  (Actually it refuses before it gets to the choice of creating something new or just eliminating something from the original).  I have been to an Apple store, but the people there only could recommend that I try some alternate applications to do the transfer (Kodak EasyShare).  I don't have much faith this will work.  I think I have this application on an old PC, and it is not something I want on my new computers.
    Is it possibled the size of this video just violates the transfer formats for files over USB?  If so, I will just delete the video and move on.  But the video is really something I wanted to save.  I would be happy to eliminate most of the video, but the ipad will not let me trim it.
    I also tried to import the video with Windows Moviemaker (free with W7).  It also does not see this file, but works fine on the other videos on the ipad.

  • S205 w/ Windows Home Premium not recognizing Integrated WebCam - Windows 7 Drivers?

    I just got an awesome deal on an S205 netbook. Everything is great except that I cannot get the WebCam to work. This is a deal breaker. If I can't figure it out I'll be returning it.
    So far I have tried various things. When I first started this I couldn't figure things out. There was no camera in the Device Manager and nothing obvious on the system (hardware, software) about a camera, except that I can see it, physically on the netbook and know it came with a WebCam. How to use it? Nada. So I went to the Lenovo site & installed a driver and then Skype. The microphone works in Skype, but no picture. Totally black. However, it automatically brings up Lenovo YouCam when you test the video in Skype. So that helped as this software was not recognizing a camera either, so I knew it wasn't just Skype.
    Then I figured out that I needed to hit Fn+Esc to enable the webcam. I thought that was the ticket. However, as soon as I did that I got a message that the USB device was not recognized. I uninstalled the driver and went back to reinstall it to see if that might help, however at this time I realized that the driver's on Lenovo's site for the s205 are for XP not Windows 7. Seriously? Turns out there are two different sites. http://support.lenovo.com and http://consumersupport.lenovo.com The later has the Windows 7 version, the first site lists Xp drivers ... Installed the W7 Driver again, but still not working or recognizing the camera ... Anyway, I am not a techie, but I am pretty decent at figuring stuff out or Googling and researching this stuff online. Or following your directions/suggestions. From my searching so far no one seems to have this exact issue. Most it is either not having software to use the camera or not having it enabled and neither of these are my issue. Any ideas for what my next step should be? Details on my system below. Thanks!
    Lenonvo ideaPad - 11.6" 1366x768 LED; AMD Dual-Core E-350 1.6GHz; 4GB RAM; 500GB HDD; 802.11n; Windows 7 Home Premium; ATI Radeon HD6310M graphics; webcam; 6-cell battery
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I've had some webcam issues, too.
    Sadly, the webcam device ID is not listed in the driver available for download at the support page.
    Thus, installing this driver is pointless.
    Nevertheless, you can force the driver installation and it will work as it should.
    Please have a look at the device manager.
    Double-click the unknown device, go to Details and select the Hardware ID property.
    It should be USB\VID_5986&PID_0292&REV_1403&MI_00
    (In case you got a different VendorID/ProductID, google them. You should quickly find something. Be sure this device is the webcam and not some other device. Otherwise don't continue.)
    Now unpack the driver setup file with 7-zip or WinRaR.
    Back to the Device Manager -> Double-click the device, select the Driver tab, click Update Driver and browse for the extracted folder. You will need the Bison subfolder.
    Good luck.

  • Dc/dvd drive not functioning and not recognized in device manager after installing Windows 7 OS

    I have an HP Pavilion laptop, model # dv9617nr, which was originally loaded (from the factory) with Windows Vista.  I upgraded the OS to Windows 7 a few months ago, and initially, everything worked fine.  Within the last month, however, my DVD/CD ROM optical drive stopped working and is not recognized in Explorer, and does not show up in Device Manager.  I have tried a number of fixes from this forum and the Microsoft Windows 7 forums, with no positive effect.  I should note that upon inserting a disc in the drive, everything sounds normal (device spins and the external LED lights up) but nothing happens and the unit shuts down.
    I have no idea if this is a software or a hardware issue.  I did check the HP website for software and driver updates for my model and the Windows7 OS, but HP has no update for this PC running this OS.  ANY help is greatly appreciated.

  • Itunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Iphone 4S not recognized in Windows and Itunes

    I recently installed itunes 11.1.4 on my Windows 7 (64) laptop computer and my iphone 4S was no longer recognized in Windows or itunes. Previous versions of itunes had worked with no problems with this combination. I completely uninstalled itunes, apple software update, apple mobile device support, bonjour and apple application support and restarted the computer. When I attached the iphone, it was recognized by Windows. I reinstalled itunes only to find the iphone was no longer recognized in Windows or itunes again. When viewing the device in Device Manager, I discovered the yellow exclamation mark and proceeded to attempt to update the driver. Windows reported that it "cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device." Repeated the uninstall and reinstall process with a new download of the itunes installer which produced the same result. Need help resolving this problem because I need to sync data on phone with data on computer.

  • Ipod with click wheel. Windows displays device not recognized problem.

    I'm using a ipod with click wheel, and hooking it up through a usb 2.0 port with the stock cable.
    I keep getting a device not recognized message from windows, and the itunes software 8.xxxx does not recognize it even in diagnostics tests. Everything else is pass, except the ipod recognition.
    The battery needs to be charged, and is depleted but its not recieving a charge when plugged into the computer.
    Does anyone have a solution to this?

    If the iPod is not getting a charge through the cable (and the battery is depleted), it may not be recognized because the iPod has no power to do anything.
    I would say the problem is either a faulty dock connector on the iPod, a faulty cable, or a faulty USB port on the computer. You have probably tested the USB port possibility already by trying a different port (or trying another USB device on the same port), so I would try a different USB docking cable as the next test.
