IPhone does not launch itunes

Since I updated to Lion iTunes does not start (launch) automatically when i connect my iPhone.
I have ticked in the box.
I have reinstalled iTunes.
I have Mac OS X 10.7.2
I have iTune 10.5.2
Any ideas?

I am now on Lion and iTunes 10.5. There is nothing in iTune Preferneces that indicates iTune to launch when the iPhone is connected. And since my ICloud does not push anything aywhere, I'm wondering what can I do?

Iphone will not launch itunes

I have given my father my old iphone3, he has connected the phone to his computer, but all that happens is that some photographs from the phone are transferred to his screen. Itunes does not launch. He has not had an account with itunes before. What should he do?

When there are photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll, the iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to a computer.
He needs to get an iTunes account with iTunes. If iTunes does not launch automatically, manually launch iTunes no different from launching any other application on your computer if not already launched.
Under the Summary tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select open iTunes when this iPhone is connected.

# of songs actually on iphone does not match itunes count

I have synced and re-synced my new iphone. When connected to itunes, itunes claims there are 3829 songs on the phone. I look at the phone and there are only 529. What gives. And how in all that is holy do I resolve this?

You just have to go thru the steps and do the math. How many videos does it report on the ipod, and how many videos do you have listed in iTUnes?
goto edit>preferences>ipod tab and go thru each sub tab to see how you have the ipod set to update Music,video,podcast
THeres a trick you can do in creating a "Unchecked" smart playlist for unchecked songs in iTUnes.
creat one smart playlist and match the following rule
Artist does not contain 123456
UNCHECK limit to
Check BOTH Live updating and Match only checked songs and name this smart playlist "Checked"
Create another smart playlist and match the following rule
Playlist is not checked
UNCHECK match only checked songs and limit to
CHECK Live updating

Iphone does not accept itunes id or password

Hi,
Finally I managed to intall the itunes after some help from my local ISP.
I have setup my itunes account from my laptop and sync to my iphone.
Was unable to download the Apple free bumper case Apps from iphone as it says my itunes/Apple ID or pwd is entered incorrectly. Later managed to download the Apps from my laptop using the same login details & able to sync to my iphone.
However, now I still cannot install the Apps on my iphone as my ID and pwd is rejected again.
Can anyone advise why my login details are recognised on laptop but not iphone?
Thanks much!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Which password won't it accept.
Have you had any error notifications about time or date.
Are you properly conected to the network and don't have a 169.x.x.x address

I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it. I cannot figure out how to do that. The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device. Does this kind of download have to run through itunes? Thanks

Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device. The following is general information on iTunes sync: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 and the following is a previous discussion where the post by Andreas Junge helped others that had a problem syncing audiobooks: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20052732#20052732

How do i delete songs from my iphone when they don't show up in itunes? Swiping across the song on the iphone does not give me a delete button.

Hello audreywisc,
Songs can be removed from your iPhone by tapping 'Songs,' then swiping the song, then tapping Delete.
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

My icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

my icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

To change to iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID then sign in with the new ID. If you don't know the password for the old ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

HT1937 i unlocked my iphone 4 factory and i upgrade to 6.1 when i connect it to itunes it apears The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please

i unlocked my iphone 4 factory and i upgrade to 6.1 when i connect it to itunes it apears
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported
This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked.

It sounds like you or someone else hacked the phone to unlock it. Updating it locked it to the original carrier.
How did you unlock it? The ONLY legitimate way is to ask the carrier it is locked to to unlock it. Any other way requires hacking or jailbreaking the phone.

HT1941 Hi i have recently updated my version of iTunes in order to sync music from my macbook air to my new ipod shuffle. After a successful installation the application does not launch and I am unable to oepn iTunes of access my music! Someone please hel

Hi,
I have recently updated my iTunes to the latest version in order to sync music onto my new ipod shuffle. However after a successful installation the application does not launch or open? There are no error messages. The application is just unresponsive.
I have already checked the compatibility with Safari, my operating system and checked my firewall is not blocking it - all is fine.
Does anyone have any other resolutions?
Many thanks

Hi Carolyn,
Thank you for your time and response. The trouble is I am unable to launch iTunes? I have restarted my macbook air a number of times to try and initiate the application but the issue persists and the application remains unresponsive. Will not launch?
Thanks

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

The problem is with version 10.4.1. I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work. The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me. Here was their list of steps:
Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
2. Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
     a. iTunes
     b. QuickTime
     c. Apple Software Update
     d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
     e. Bonjour
     f. Apple Appllcation Support
3. Reboot PC
4. Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes. To correct this:
5. Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
6. Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
7. Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
8. Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date. It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
9. Reboot PC

Iphone does not appear in itunes. _ALL_ recommended steps were taken to no avail

I'm using windows 7 pro 64-bit, itunes 10.3.1. I have an iphone 3gs running ios v. 4.3.3. All software and drivers are up-to-date on my computer.
When I open itunes and plug in my iphone, itunes hangs for roughly two solid minutes. After which, my iphone does not appear in itunes. The same thing happens if I reverse the order and plug in my iphone before opening itunes.
I have read and followed all and I mean all the instructions in multiple articles on the apple support site to try and resolve the issue, and nothing has fixed the problem. My impression is that this is a bug in the latest itunes release since the problem started after updating to the latest version of itunes and did not occur previously. Nothing else changed with either my computer or my iphone since then. In all other ways, my computer, all USB devices connected to it, and all other software installed on it function perfectly.
Here are the things I have done that DO NOT RESOLVE MY PROBLEM:
- restart apple mobile device service and verify it is configured correctly
- restart ipod service and verify it is configured correctly
- restart my computer
- reset my iphone
- verify that my USB drivers are up-to-date and all USB ports are functioning correctly
- verify that my iphone DOES correctly appear in windows explorer and the device manager
- verify that my security software (norton 360) is updated to the latest version
For the record I am not running any third-party phone software.
Here is the only thing I have found that works, however, it works ONLY for the first time I open itunes afterwards. After syncing ONE TIME, the next time I open itunes, the problem comes back exactly like before.
- completely uninstall, and then reinstall all apple software in precise accordance with instructions given on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
I honestly don't expect anyone to have a solution to this issue, but I will be thrilled if there is one. I am posting primarily to see if anyone else is experiencing the same problem, and hopefully to gain the attention of a developer who can hopefully institute a fix.

Sounds like a ruined iTunes install iTunes require a number of services running if an overzealosch firewall or rights settings or "optimisme" program stopped any of those what you exp happens

OK, and when you searched for information on iPhone error 4005 what did you find?
