IPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for PC

My iPad is no longer recognized in iTunes.  This for a PC.  Occurs even when connected by cable.  WiFi sync was stopped and then this started.

Try iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support.

    Yes. Also see the following.  I would first remove and reinstall all the Apple software using the instructions in the link.

    Your media should not be affected.  However, you should always have a backup of your media since glitches do happen.

  • Ipod touch is not recognized by itunes

    Why is my ipod touch is not recognized by itunes? I have tried everything that the troubleshooting guide says and nothing works.  Anyone have any other suggestions?

    Just what have you tried.  There are many Apple articles on the subject and it easy to miss one or more. Did it work before?  Did you do anything to the computer since it last worked?  oDoes the iPod work OK?  Have you tried:

    Does it light up at all? If not, you could have a battery issue.

  • Does messaging to/from iPhone to/from iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch count as a text charge for Verizon?

    My dad has an iPad 2 and my little brother has an iPod Touch (4th generation). As long as there is a Wi-Fi signal, they are able to message, Facetime, and use the internet all for "free" (no extra charges from our internet service provider, which is obvious).
    My dad recently purchased an iPhone 4S from Verizon.
    He is currently on the "Pay As You Go" plan for messages ($0.20/text and $0.25/picture and video).
    When are messages free, and when are they not free? Are they free as long as there is a Wi-Fi signal? Are they free as long as it is from the iPhone to another iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch? Do I get charged for data only when I see the "3G" symbol displayed in the upper left corner of the iPhone?
    Thanks in advance!

    I then turned Wi-Fi off on the iPhone 4S but had "Send as SMS" turned on, tried sending another message to the Touch (Wi-Fi activated), and it did not send at all (because the Touch is SMS-incapable).
    That sort of makes sense, but even with wi-fi off the 4S should have been able to send the iMessage over 3G to the Touch, which was on wi-fi.  Your results would only make sense if the 4S didn't have 3G service, or if the iMessage servers were down, or if you've turned iMessage off completely on the 4S.  That would force the message to go out as SMS but the Touch can't receive SMS.
    Sorry, I was a bit unclear there.
    I had both Wi-Fi and Cellular Data (3G) turned off to see if "Send as SMS" alone would work if I was sending a message to an SMS-incapable device (to see if the iPhone would try anyway and to see if I would get charged for that).
    I'll type out some scenarios, and tell me if I'm wrong on these. They might seem redundant since you have pretty much answered all my questions, but I want to make absolutely sure that I understand. These could also clear things up for others who will/have read this discussion.
    Scenarios involving iPhone 4S to iPod Touch (both running iOS 5):
    4S has Wi-Fi, 3G, and "Send as SMS" turned on. Touch has Wi-Fi turned on.
    4S can iMessage to Touch via Wi-Fi (as long as there is a Wi-Fi signal) free of charge and will remain free of charge and with no accrued data usage because 4S prioritizes Wi-Fi before 3G before SMS.
    Once out of range of the Wi-Fi signal, 3G kicks in and any iMessages sent from 4S to Touch will count towards data plan usage (in my dad's case, 300MB/$20 per month - the minimum plan). However, data size will be insignificantly small if it's a simple words-only message and will only be a fraction of a percentage of the 300 MB.
    My dad turns off Cellular Data (3G), Wi-Fi is still out of range, and he sends a message (keep in mind that "Send as SMS" is still turned on). Because the Touch is not capable of sending/receiving SMS messages, the message will just fail to send.
    These scenarios would also have the same outcome if the Touch had been a Wi-Fi-only iPad. If the iPad had 3G capability, the message received from the 4S would have added towards the data plan usage of the iPad.
    Scenarios involving iPhone 4S to another iPhone (both running iOS 5):
    Both phones have Wi-Fi, 3G, and "Send as SMS" turned on. Messaging plan for each phone is "Pay as You Go" - $0.20/text and $0.25/picture or video.
    iMessages are free and do not count towards data plan usage if both currently have strong Wi-Fi signals.
    4S still has strong Wi-Fi signal, other iPhone gets out of Wi-Fi range and switches to 3G. Any messages received by the other iPhone from the 4S will count towards data plan usage of the other iPhone. However, the outgoing message from the 4S will still be free and will not count towards data plan usage.
    Other iPhone turns off 3G and is still out of Wi-Fi range but still has "Send as SMS" turned on. 4S (with strong Wi-Fi signal) sends message, "I love you." to other iPhone. The message will still be free and will not count towards data plan usage for 4S but will charge $0.20 to other iPhone.
    Scenario involving iPhone 4S to Samsung Galaxy 2 (running Android OS):
    4S has Wi-Fi, 3G, and "Send as SMS" turned on.
    Any message sent from 4S to Galaxy will count as SMS because Galaxy is incapable of iMessage. Therefore, Wi-Fi and 3G are insignificant, and 4S is charged $0.20.
    4S has Wi-Fi, 3G, and "Send as SMS" turned off.
    4S will not be capable of sending anything.
    4S has Wi-Fi and 3G turned on, but "Send as SMS" is turned off.
    4S has strong Wi-Fi signal, but message will not be sent to Galaxy.
    4S gets out of Wi-Fi range and 3G kicks in, but message will not be sent to Galaxy and no data usage will have occurred.
    That should be everything...at least everything I've considered.
    Again, thank you.

  • TS1538 I upgraded to Windows 8 Pro and now my ipod touch is not recognized in itunes

    When I upgraded to Windows 8 Pro my ipod touch is no longer recognized in itunes.  I tries reinstalling itunes with no luck.  The device is registered id device manager as a camera?

    It is normal and expected for the iPod to be seen as a camera as well as appear in iTunes.
    For the iTunes problem try:

    I would start by removing and reinstalling all the Apple software using:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

  • TS1363 My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows.  Is this repairable?

    My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows.  I have tried a variety of options, even resetting, but still no luck.

    What does the iPod's screen say or do, when you connect it to USB port on the computer?
    The article referenced is for "regular" iPods.  An iPod touch is an iOS computer, so this article would be more appropriate for troubleshooting.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Be sure to rule out a faulty USB cable as the cause.  Try another cable, or try the cable you have with another device that has a dock connector.
    Also, you should do this test to rule out a problem with the USB port (such as lack of power or USB device conflict).  Shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices, including any hub, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used).  If the computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power). 
    Then, start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect iPod to a direct USB port on the computer.  If it still does not connect, connect something else to the same USB port to confirm it is working.  Preferably, use something similar, such as a USB flash drive or external drive.
