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)

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.

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.

New ipad2 will not connect to itunes

I just purchased an ipad2. I'm attempting to connect it to my itunes account. I have an ipad which has connected to the account on the same computer with no problems. I just updated iTunes to the latest 10.3 version.

After 2+ hours on phone with an Apple tech, he decided I have an iPad problem. Will return to Verizon today. Not a good intro to the 2. Love the original iPad, though, so will stay on it.

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?

IPhone 4 will not connect to iTunes after getting wet three days ago

What can I do to fix this problem that doesn't involve going to Apple Store or paying Warranty?!

You could put it in a bag of rice for at least a week however if you have tried to turn it on since immersion you have probably fried it
An out of warranty exchange is $149 for an iPhone 4 at Apple Retail Genius Bar

TS1538 My iphone will not connect to PC after iOS6 update.

I just updated my phone to iOS6 and now can't connect to my PC. I went over the guide that is listed at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 and found that my device is not showing up in the device manager anymore. I have three computers and my phone is not recognized on all three. My wife's iPhone connects to all three fine. She has a 3GS. I tried uninstalling all apple programs and reinstalling, restoring my phone to factory defaults, and three different USB cables. When I plug the USB into my computer, it starts charging, but never brings up the camera folder nor installs the driver. It shows up nowhere in the device manager. Any suggestions?

I do not have a passcode on the phone. I also tried sliding my finger across the screen to get into the phone past the screen lock and still nothing. I've connected my phone to my computer a million times with no problem. It just started happening after the new update. At least iOS6 is pretty cool! I just want to load music back onto it because I had to take a ton off to make room for the update. It was also nice to be able to pull pictures off. Now I seem to be screwed.

After trying to down ios 7, iPad will not charge, will not open and will not connect to itunes. The only display I will get is the apple logo, or low battery warning.

After trying to download ios 7, iPad will not charge, will not open and will not connect to itunes. Sometimes, screen will switch from Apple logo to low battery notification, but doesn't look as if battery is charging.

Connect with cable to computer. Your ipad is in recovery mode.
Follow directions to fix

Since downloading iOS 8 on my iPad 2 it has stopped working and will not connect to iTunes

Since downloading iOS 8 on my iPad 2 it has stopped working and will not connect to iTunes to do a restore. I have tried to do a reset using the sleep button and home key and all I get is a white band across the screen and then it boots into the main system but it is just a series of white lines going across the screen, how can I do a restore on this?

Hey dbwithers,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPad after attempting to update to iOS 8. To isolate these issues, let’s try placing your iPad in recovery mode and attempting a restore with iTunes:
