IPhone 6 not recognized by Windows 7 PC

When I connect my iPhone 6 to my Windows 7 PC a pop-up shows the drivers loading, tells me the device is ready to use, then iTunes opens. All good right? Yes, except when I go to my Computer to open anything it doesn't even show the phone. What is going on here? It's Windows 7 Professional (64bit) if that makes any difference. I'd like to get photos off of my phone to my computer but I cannot get them to work together.
Thanks.

the complete steps for troubleshooting this can be found in the following article:

    iphone not recognized in windows or itunes

    My iPhone 5 was not being recognized by two different computers, windows 7 and windows 8.1.  My wife's iphone 5 had no issues.  I followed all the advice on-line from re-installing iTunes, resetting my phone ( as new and backed up from cloud), device manager troubleshooting, re-install drivers, different cables, different ports.  Oddly enough in the fianl analysis my iPhone only gets recognized when the cable is insert in one way into the phone.  Flip the cable and it goes straight to "unknown device".  Doesn't matter which cable I use, it only works on one side.  My wife's works both ways.  I can't explain it, but there it is.  I put a dot with a permanent marker on the cable to identify which side goes up.

  • Iphone not recognized by Windows 7

    iPhone 4 no longer recognized by Windows 7, 64-bit desktop. The iTunes diagnostic shows everything working satisfactorily, and Windows Control Panel, under Devices and Printers, shows the "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver". The Properties for that device show the driver as working properly. However, when I plug the iPhone into a USB port (using both a port and cable that formerly worked fine with this iPhone), Windows attempts to install a driver, and fails. The resulting message is "MTP USB Device Device driver software was not successfully installed". Further investigation gives me a message "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)".

    This problem is very simple to solve. NO UNINSTALLATION REQUIRED.
    If your experiencing with this problem, please follow the steps below:
    1. Completely Turn-OFF your Apple Device (iphone, ipod touch or ipad)
    2. Connect your Apple device to your windows PC or laptop USB.
    3. Once it is connected, your apple device will turn-ON automatically.
    4. Once it is ON, Enter your password or if you have. You will notice "Installation of driver" at the right side of your task bar. (icons located below at the right side of your monitor near the clock)
    5. While it is installing, wait for the Notice "Failed Installing the driver".
    6. Do not close the message.
    7. Right click My Computer and click Manage. Click Device Manager and right click "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" then click Scan for hardware Changes"
    8. After that, you will notice, windows will again "Install the driver".
    9. Driver Installation Successful.
    10. Right now, you can open and view your pictures from your Apple device in your computer.
    Note: The good thing of this solution is you can apply it in any windows OS computer where you get an error or problem once you connect your Apple device in it.
    I hope this will help.

  • Iphone not recognized by windows or itunes

    Can anyone please help me figure out how to resolve this issue?  My iphone 4 is not recognized by my PC.  My OS is by Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2.  I tried the various "device not recognized" troubleshooting to no avail.  I tunes is up to date.  I even turned off my security sw for a bit to see if there was a third party conflict...all to no avail.  There has got to be someone out there who has the smarts to show me how to fix this.  Please advise and many thanks in advance!

    Jason,
    I understand why Apple doesn't cover the water damaged phones under the warranty, but do you know why they don't fix them if the customer is paying? Is it just because they want the people to buy another phone so they can make more money? I guess I just don't get it.
    The cost to repair a device and all of its components is more than the cost of a new device.
    Other than the article I linked above, this is the part of the warranty/legal forms that would apply:
    +"US v1.0+
    +Apple reserves the right to refuse+
    +service on products that have serial numbers altered, defaced or removed or that are damaged due to+
    +accident, abuse, neglect, misuse (including faulty installation, repair, or maintenance by anyone other+
    +than Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider), unauthorized modification, extreme environment+
    +(including extreme temperature or humidity), extreme physical or electrical stress or interference,+
    +fluctuation or surges of electrical power, lightning, static electricity, fire, acts of God or other external+
    +causes. In such event, Apple may return the product to you without servicing it, and may charge you the+
    +Diagnostic Fee."+ from http://images.apple.com/legal/terms/repair/docs/070108aiphoneOOW.pdf

  • Iphone not recognized by windows explorer

    I've read previous posts on this but no luck.  I have never had a problem with this before.  I'd plug my iphone 5 into my laptop, open Windows Explorer, then drag/drop files into my computer from my phone.
    Then I purchased a Canon camera with wifi for my office.  My IT guy tried to no avail to get the wifi to work.  In the process, my Windows Explorer will no longer recognized either the Canon camera or my iphone.  I am running out of space on my phone.  I emailed myself all the videos I could so I could delete them but many photos and my larger videos are stuck on there.
    My phone works great in itunes, I have no problems with my USB drives otherwise.
    I've tried some fixes I've read about: stop/start Apple Device Service.  I went to device manager and explanded the list as someone had suggested.  They said to right click on "imaging devices" to then uninstall a driver but imaging devices was not in the list.
    My IT guy says the drivers are gone and I need a new hard drive for my Dell laptop which I have to pay for.
    This is very frustrating.
    Please offer any assistance you can.
    Thank you.

  • IPhone not recognized by windows vista 64 bit

    Hello, I use vista home premium 64 bit and I used to be able to sync both my iPod shuffle and iPhone 3GS in iTunes.
    My pc does not recognize either device and there seems to be no USB mass storage device in device manager.
    I have reinstalled iTunes , updated any drivers and such with no luck.
    I have reinstalled vista and still can't get things to work.
    Both devices are recognize by all of other pc I have access to such as a friends , work pc , moms laptop, etc.
    Those pc use either xp or windows 7. Maybe it's just a vista issue but as I said before. It used to work just fine with vista.
    I am at a loss as to why my own pc won't recognize these devices.
