IPhone 5 and iPad v4 not detected in devices over wifi

A week ago my iPhone and iPad were both linked with my desktop for wifi sync and the Remote app.  A few days ago they both stopped appearing in iTunes unless they are physically connected and my desktop's library no longer appear in the Remote app for either device.  I've tried all of the methods I've been able to find online, but none have worked. 
I have an iPhone 5, iPad v4, AppleTV v3, and a laptop and desktop (both with Windows 7).  My only issue is connecting the mobile devices via the remote app and wifi sync to my iTunes library on my desktop (which has a wired connection to the router).  My mobile devices can connect to my laptop's library and to my AppleTV.  Likewise, my AppleTV can connect to my desktop's library via Home Sharing. 
Home Sharing is turned on for both devices and my desktop library.  I also have iTunes set to share my entire library.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled all of the Apple programs on my desktop (and did a full reboot between the uninstall and reinstall).  I've made sure that my firewall is not blocking iTunes (I even went so far as to disable my firewall as a test).  Because my mobile devices can connect to my desktop's library via the remote app while on my home wifi network, so I doubt the issue is my router's settings or signal interference.  I verified that my "services" have "Apple Mobile Devices" and "Bonjour" set to automatically startup.  Wishfully, I even tried installing the new iTunes 11 to see if it would fix the problem...but no dice.
The only thing I changed on my system during that period was installing the PocketCloud companion application on my desktop.  As that was the only change I made, I thought it might have been the issue.  I uninstalled the PocketCloud desktop companion application, uninstalled all Apple software, rebooted, and reinstalled the apple software, but that also didn't work.  I also was unable to find any complaints that PocketCloud interfered with the iPad/iPhone's wireless connection with iTunes.
Not only will my iPad and iPhone connect with my laptop's
Any advice would be appreciated.

If anyone runs into this problem, I was able to solve it.  The issue had to do with the IGMP Proxy on my Verizon Fios router.  I don't know why my devices could connect to my wireless devices while they couldn't connect to my wired desktop.

  • Macbook Air (and Ipad) do not detect Airplay devices

    I am literally going crazy already with this issue.
    I have  a Macbook Air OSX Version 10.9.2, an iPad 2 and the latest Apple tv. Airplay used to work but a few months ago it just stopped working.
    We bought a brand new router, all devices are connected to the same network and for some reason my macbook does not detect an airplay device.
    I have searched through every single forum on the web and have tried everything - restarting router, apple tv, computer, iPad. Turning airplay on and off. I am running all devices with the latest updates (including our router).  But there is no fix! Neither my macbook nor my iPad detect the apple tv to airplay.
    Please somebody help!

    See this page about the reccomended networking settings for AirPlay. It is most likely due to your router.
    I hope I helped.

  • HT1212 I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode."

    I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is asking passcode to be entered - even after following directions for computers not synced... multiple times, but iTunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode."  What do I do now?

    DFU Restore
    This will very likley result in loss of data.
    Plug the iPhone into the computer.
    Ensure that it is running the latest version of iTunes and that it has access to the internet.
    Press and hold both the home and sleep/wake buttons for exactly eight seconds.
    Release only the sleep/wake button but continue to hold the home button for another five seconds.
    Let go of the home button, then look at the computer screen for an instructional popup.
    The popup should say "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode. . .(etc)"  Click accept to all boxes and let iTunes download and install all of the latest device Firmware and Software.
    If no popup appears, repeat the above DFU instructions.  If you've never done a DFU, it may take about three attempts to get the timing right.

  • Iphone and Ipad are not detecting airprinters with Dlink DIR-651

    Since changing my router to a Dlink DIR-651, my apple deivces are not detecting airprinters.
    Dlink says I need to open ports on the router.  
    Please advise.

    Hi..I've had a variant of this problem; my internet was accessible but my devices on wifi could not see the PC on Lan. That meant no iTunes syncing, Airplay from iTunes etc.
    Dlink has a strange default setting that isolates Wifi & Wired connections into different subnets.I'm assuming you have DHCP setup on your router and you're PC or MAC has internet access via the same router. Try the following steps to see if this solves the problem for you; first Log into your DLINK admin page-
    1. Go to Setup -> Local Network  and Uncheck the box that says 'Configure the second IP Address and Subnet Mask for LAN' - Hit Apply
    2. Go to Wireless -> Wireless Basic and Uncheck 'Enable MultiAP Isolation' - Hit Apply
    3. Restart your Router
    You do not need to port forward. Just get the Wired & Wireless devices on the same Subnet.
    Let me know if this solves your problem. I've been frustrated by my problem for months & had nearly given up.

    I can't even begin to say how frusterating this is.  All I want is to sync my devices with my computer and I can't do it and I dont know why. 
    Please help me.
    Thank You,

  • IPhone 4s and iPad is not syncing with iCal

    I have iCloud enabled and iPhone, iPad, and Mac Mini.  My iPhone and iPad calendars are synced perfectly.  My Mac Mini does not show the same calendar events as iPhone and iPad.  When I create an event on iPad or iPhone it will not show in iCal.  If I create an event in iCal it will show on iPhone and iPad.  I  turned off iCloud on Mac Mini and turned it on again and that didn't solve the problem.  Not sure if this is contributing to the problem but I have (12) "untitled" calendars on my Mac Mini iCal.  I would ultimately like to clean up iCal and use my iPhone calendar as the master calendar to do so. 
    Active Calendars:
    - Google
    - Work (Exchange)
    - iPad
    - iPhone
    - iCal
    Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    Got it! iCloud not set up on the iPhone.

  • I have an iPhone 5s and iPad Retina (not the air)--are chargers interchangeable?

    Yes it actually is shown as compatible as far back as 4gen iPods

  • My ipad is not recognised in itunes over wifi anymore..

    if i connect direct to pc everything is ok...just wont connect and sync over wifi...
    anyone can help?

    Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

    I have tried different usb cables and ports and turning the lightning part of the usb cable over.  I have done a soft and hard reset on the phone. I have turned off and restarted my computer.
    I have OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 11.0.4, iOS 6.1.4 (6.1.3 on iPad)
    My phone charges when plugged in and iPhoto recognizes it and opens when plugged in. I am also seeing both in the Image Capture program.  I have been able to get the phone to appear in iTunes, but iTunes freezes up and does nothing.
    Also, same issue and problems as above with my iPad 3.
    This is the error message I get:
    [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v449/brtaus/iTunes_zps29ea986b.jpg[/IMG]
    I have installed and tried to use iTunes 11.0 and 10.7 but no luck.  I can get my phone to show up but then iTunes freezes up and I have to force quit.  I can get my ipad to show up but when I try to sync, iTunes freezes up and I have to force quit.
    I didn’t have an issue until I updated iTunes to version 11.0.4
