Iphone 4s. Windows 8.1 hp laptop. Itunes does not see my phone when I plug it in or launch itunes. My other computer sees it no problem, Is there compatibility issues with win 8.1 and itunes? Very frustrating...

Need help getting itunes to recognize my 4s, my older other computers have no issues. I have hp 2000 with windows 8.1..

That didn't work for me....I have done every concievable action to resolve this....now I am getting pissy......Went through all the suggestions on the support page....I am going absolutely nuts here, uninstall, reinstall, set this default to that....NO ONE KNOWS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING OR IT WOULD BE ADDRESSED ALREADY!!!!!!
Sitting right next to my new laptop is the old one that started out with XP on it. Has Win7 and itunes fires right up. I called my brother, he doesn't have apple products. He just bought a new laptop and did the 8.1 upgrade and guess what? Itunes still won't recognise my 4S....
ANY FEEDBACK WOULD BE GREAT. However, keep in mind I have done everything except throw the laptop and the phone.....
IF IT AIN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT!!!!!!!

    Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons 10-20 seconds until you see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), then release.  If it won't reset you may need to put it in recovery mode and restore it as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

  • Compatibility issues with Final Cut Express and Final Cut Pro

    I'm getting ready to edit a project and I was wondering if there are any compatibility issues with Final Cut Express and Final Cut Pro. I've never used Express put I assume I would be able to make cuts, simple effects and titles. Is this correct.
    If I transfer project files from one platform to the other will i run into any issues?
    Thanks for all and any help.

    Although they operate in a similar fashion that are not fully compatible. You can open a FCE project in FCP, but once you've edited it in FCP you can't go back to FCE.

  • HT1267 What do I do if my iPhone just switched itself off and won't turn back on again? It does not even register power when I plug it in to my car or home charger or computer???

    What do I do if my iPhone just switched itself off and won't turn back on again? It does not even register power when I plug it in to my car or home charger or computer???

    If you hold the home button and power button for about 10 seconds it will turn back on. I have had his issue 3 times but don't know what fixes it for good

  • Just got a new Dell computer with windows 8 and when I plug my iPhone into it it does not see my phone in iTunes, why

    My new Dell computer with windows 8, when I open my iTunes and plug my iPhone 5 in the computer does not see my phony, why?

    Hi, Robert. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • My iphone 5 is frozen on the screen that shows a cable and itunes symbol.  I can not get the phone to enter DFU mode and itunes does not recognize the phone when plugged in to itunes.  The phone was mid update when it was disrupted....

    I plugged my iphone in to do an update and it was mid way through the update when the phone was accidentally disconnected.  Now the phone is stuck on the screen that shows a cable and the iTunes image suggesting the phone needs to be plugged in to iTunes.  I have plugged it in, powered on and off, attempted to enter DFU mode numerous times all with no success.  ITunes does not recognize the phone and I continue to only receive the screen saying I need to plug in to iTunes..  Please help!

    Hold Sleep Button with Home Button toghether until it restarts Always it takes 8 to 15 seconds, after it restarts leave the sleep button and remember do not leave the home button it automaticlly switches to DFU mode.

  • Are there any issues with Adobe Photoshop CS5 and OS X Yosemite 10.10?

    Are there any known issues with Adobe Photoshop CS5 and OS X Yosemite 10.10? I heard I would need an older Java version to start it.

    You'll need to reinstall Photoshop CS5 after installing the MacOS 10.10 update -- for some reason the OS updater stomps on some of the Photoshop files.

  • Is there compatibility issues with windows 8 & iTunes 11.0.1

    I'm sure there's something wrong here, either with iTunes 11.0.1, or its compatibility with window 8.
    iTunes became a nightmare, nothing is organized, it do not save modifications, it can not remember what's watched what's not from movies or tv shows, even with the new files I just added.
    Even music.
    It is not even streaming or synching properly to apple tv (the latest version), it keep on disconnecting.
    I tried this is 3 devices, with different brands, two of them with windows 8/iTunes 11.0.1, all the same, but the 3rd is with Windows 7/iTunes 10.7.0.12, it is working great, very smooth, all is well, in all fields.
    Plus, All my devices are 64bit, when i install iTunes 11.0.1's iTunes64setup.exe, downloaded from apple.com/download, in my windows 8 64bit, then i run iTunes i got iTunes (32bit) "knowing that from task manager"
    what's going on??????
    It's a total mess.
    I wish i can use another program, rather than iTunes, but I'm stuck, because all my devices are from apple.
    please help

  • HT1414 I "Erased all content and settings" and now my itunes does not recognize my iphoe when i plug it in. Plus my iphone is stuck with the apple symbol on it and wont do anything. what did i do?

    I "Erased all content and settings" and now my iTunes does not recognize my iPhone when I plug it in. Plus my iPhone is stuck with the apple symbol on it and wont do anything. what did I do? How do I get my phone to work again?    

    Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually takes about 10 seconds time. If still problem. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the Firmware.

  • Compatibility issues with 1st Ipod Nano and In Car Windows MP3 media player

    I use a mac pro running 10.5.6 leopard. My new car has a Windows formatted media MP3 player with USB connector which doesn't read my 1st generation Ipod nano. I can load the music files onto a flash drive and play them in the car but without any of the functionality of an Ipod.
    How can I load music files onto my Ipod and use it in my car without
    resorting to loading Windows on my mac and reformatting my Ipod to PC? Is
    there a crossover bit of software available? Are more recent nano's formatted for both Mac and PC? I have saved the IPod as a external hard disk and converted all music files to MP3 which is the MP3's accepted format. I'm also sure I have the latest software for the IPod. Any ideas? Cheers.

    OK I am confused. You say your car stereo has a Windows formatted MP3 player? What does that mean exactly? That the car stereo can play MP3s off of mass storage devices plugged into its USB port?
    I think if the above is what you meant, then you have two problems. One is that your car stereo likely reads FAT32 formatted storage devices (and possibly, but doubtfully, Windows NTFS formatted devices). Your iPod is likely formatted in Mac format which your stereo won't be able to read.
    That can be overcome. Simply restore your ipod on a Windows machine to put it into Windows format then plug it back into your Mac and use it that way. Macs can read and sync to Windows formatted iPods just fine.
    But the other problem is, your stereo may not be able to actually control an iPod directly. Does the instruction say it can? Therefore it would be looking on the storage of the iPod that shows up as Mass Storage for tracks, not on the hidden area where iTunes stashes music into and your iPod plays music from.
