Iphone not being recognized by Itunes for Windows. 0xE8000001 Error

I am trying to upload some music on to my new IPhone, every time i connect my iphone, itunes does not recognize it. I have the latest version of ITunes 7.5.0.2. I reinstalled itunes several times, restarted Apple Mobile Device Service serveral times but still no luck. Please Advise.

I had the same exact error. I am from the US and don't have any jailbreak crudy on my phone.
I fixed the problem by resetting and erasing the phone; shutting down the Mac; Resetting NVRAM (boot->CMD-O-F, 'reset-nvram', 'shut-down'); Resetting PRAM (boot->CMD-P-R, hold until it starts booting); load up iTunes; restore iPhone backup.
Do you have to go through all these steps? I don't know. But this worked for me.

not being recognized by Itunes for Windows. 0xE8000001 Error
I get this message when trying to sync my IPOD Touch 16GB after upgrading to 7.5. I have tried to remove 7.5 and reinstall 7.4 and still the same problem. I have it connected to the USB on my motherboard. I have even changed the USB connection around. I have tried everything I can think of and all of the instructions I can find on this site. HELP!!

Hey dmar713,
The iPod touch requires USB 2.0, check the speed of the USB port.

If the USB port is not causing the issue, it may be an application conflict.

Iphone not being recognized by Itunes for MAC; But works in Windows Vista

Hi,
My iphone sync with Windows without problems.
But when I plug my iPhone in MAC (10.5.5) with Itunes (8.0.2) the iTunes return: itunes could not connect to the iphone 0xE8000001
It is strange because iPhone connect with iPhoto without problems.
Just iTunes for mac dont work.
This is a brand new minimac.
Any tips?
Rogerio

RogerioNT,
Which USB port are you connecting it to?
iPhoto will transfer over a USB 1.1 connection, and many hubs are USB 1.1. Try connecting the iPhone directly to the back of the computer.
Hope this helps,

IPhone not being recognized by iTunes

My iPhone is not being recognized by iTunes. I have iPhone original version with the latest software OS update. The phone was reset because of unrelated problems, and I need to connect to iTunes for it be operational! iTunes 9.1 on my computer... my iPad syncs with no problem but the iPhone is not even showing up as a device on the iMac or MacBook!
I have followed the steps on the Apple Support website, but the problem persists. What to do next?
thanks

Your computer detail provided indicates you have a Mac and the link you provided is for Windows - at least for the software conflicts portion the link went directly to, although some of the troubleshooting steps are similar.
Here is the link for OS X.

IPhone not being recognized by iTunes anymore

Howdy,
Like the subject line says. It use to auto recognize so I can sync, though the last time I synced was back in Dec 2007. But now it doesn't even recognize the device at all. itunes won't list it on the left hand menu, so I can't sync.
Not sure if it's the latest update to iTunes 7.6.1.9 that caused it.
Tried:
Swapping different USB ports. It only recognizes that there is a camera device attached.
Tried uninstalling the latest update and running an older version of iTunes I downloaded last Oct. But the old version won't start up because the library has already been updated to newer version.
Did a hard shutdown of my iPhone, and that doesn't work.
Tried charging iPhone to max and that didn't work.
Basically, nothing is working.
Any ideas? Not sure if it's the device or my computer, and I can't seem to find any way to reach customer support on this website... it's like a maze.
I'm using Windows XP. I'm about to pull my hair out!

Hello
Posted below is some troubleshooting that may possibly assist you today. Please be aware I am also posting what may have been done already. You can skip past this if needed. Simply posting it for others as well. If you have any other questions feel free to post back.
1. Go to Add/Remove Programs, Located in the control panel. And check and see if "Apple Mobile Device Support" is listed. It is usually located right above "Apple Software Update"
If it is not there. Then this is the reason iPhone stopped showing up. Please follow the next step below to possibly resolve this.
1 A - Uninstall the following programs in the following order if possible. Then reinstall iTunes 7.1.6.9 for Windows
* Remove Apple Mobile Device Support
* Remove Apple Software Update
* Remove Bonjour
* Remove any iPod Updater Programs
* Remove Quicktime
* Remove iTunes
-Reboot the computer, Then download and install iTunes 7.1.6.9
Once you have installed, Connect the iPhone, Wait and see if it shows up in iTunes. If it does not proceed below.
2. Go to Start- Run- type services.msc and press ok. The services window will launch.
Do you see Apple Mobile Device in the list? If so the Status should be started. If it is anything else please post back what it is.
You can usually right click on Apple Mobile Device, And tell it to start service if it was some how stopped. Once you start it and it stays started, Reconnect iPhone and see what happens.
If for some reason the service auto stops, This is sometimes caused by Security Software. Please disable or uninstall this software for testing, And see if it allows the service to be started.
If for some reason Apple Mobile Device says it is disabled. Then do the following
2 A - Right click on Apple Mobile Device, Select Properties, Look for Startup Type, Switch it to Automatic, and Apply settings, Then Start the service and press ok, Now test iPhone
3. Please test all USB Ports and see if any of them resolve iPhone not showing in iTunes, Also if possible connect iPhone to another PC to ensure it is not the iPhone itself. This will isolate it to something on the PC or iPhone
If possible disconnect any un-needed USB Devices.
If needed follow this article as well

Iphone not being recognized by Itunes so I cannot fix the songs with the red circles with squares in the middle

I have an Iphone 4s and i have two reocurring problems. So my first problem was after I had synced all my music most of the new songs and some old that never had a problem before had a red circle with a red square inside of it. I've gotten rid of it before but I dont even know how. I've read countless discussions and tried so many things that I dont even know what works. i figured it just fixed in time but there has to be an easier way that isnt so frustrating and annoying. So now my iphone isnt even being recognized. the apple mobile device is installed and running and has been stopped, started and restarted plenty of time. ive reset and restarted, reinstalled everything. my phone is charging, it just isnt being recognized by itunes or my pc. also in the device manager it isnt showing up. I am getting very close to smashing my iphone and switching to an android. everything is up to date and i also have tried to sync music on the first ipod touch that came out and even that isnt being recognized. I just want to get rid of the **** red circles and connect my iphone so i can sync it a million times in hopes that the red circles will just disappear. does anyone know why these red circles appear? Apple needs to get their stuff together and give us actual directions on how to fix this!!!! thank you for your help!!!

I had this problem too and my roommate solved it!
Go to 'Settings'
'Music'
Scroll to the bottom and enter your password to log onto your home sharing
Then connect to iTunes and sync!

Definitive thread for iphone not being recognized in itunes in PCs

I have the problem many have mentioned that the iphone is not recognized by itunes at all.
I have tried completely uninstalling iTunes, quicktime, anything apple, and deleting the folders.
I have tried messing with the plugs, different USB ports.
I have seen the apple support page on this issue and tried everything, I have also seen the page about ipods having this problem which advised turning off power management on USB ports.
I have tried it all.
I know my phone and cables are probably fine because everything works perfectly on my desktop, which is configured the same as the problem computer (an HP laptop running XP Pro with all current updates except IE 7).
Please don't tell me to buy a mac, I didn't buy the iphone just to be forced into converting overnight to the apple religion.
I have read every thread about this issue and it seems everyone has solved their problem except me so I had to start a thread.
I haven't had the time to sit for Apple support on the phone yet but I will do that this weekend hopefully, can't imagine what the fix can be but I will report back here if I get it.
Any helpful suggestions are greatly appreciated.
My laptop is just 2 years old and it does have USB 2.0.

When you plug it in, Windows should at least recognize it as the iPhone camera and ask what program you want to run. It displays a list, none of which are iTunes. Does this happen when you plug it in? At least that would eliminate the question of the cables and whether or not the computer itself sees it.
Now as to iTunes, it should be open when you connect. I know that helps to get it recognized. Also, the same issue I recall having was that I had not upgraded iTunes to 7.3.0 and it would not recognize it without that version.
Isn't there also something about Authorizing/Deauthorizing something under the Advanced section of iTunes? I've never understood this, but it must do something.

IPhone Model A1203 is not being recognized in iTunes using Windows XP on a Dell Dimension 4100. How to get drivers to get the device recognized?

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes to Windows XP then connected my first generation iPhone to the different USB ports available on the Dell Dimension 4100, not one of them allowed the iphone to be recognized. The Troubleshooter did not locate drivers other than what are already in the system. Is there a work around? Is it the iphone or Windows XP? Where do I locate drivers? Why can't my devices just get along?

IPOD TOUCH 4G IS NOT BEING RECOGNIZED BY ITUNES NOR WINDOWS 7

Hi... I have been using my new ipod Touch 32G 4G for almost two months now, and It has been working great... but for an unknown reason my itunes 10.4.10 (I use a PC with Windows 7 ultimate 32bits in it) stoped recognizing it, and so has my PC... when I plug the ipod to my computer, if I have itunes open, it freezes... if I unplug the Ipod, it start working ok ( I mean itunes)... and once I plug the ipod to the computer it recognizes it as a camera device.. and if I look for it it wont show in (My Computer)... As I said... this happened just a few days ago... it was working OK before... I have re installed several times the last itunes version and even though it works with out the devices conected... once I connect any apple device ( ipod Touch 2G, ipod Touch 4g and an ipad 2G) it wont recognize any of them... the ipods frezze itunes, the ipad doesn´t frezze it, but It doesnt show there either... What could have happened ? What should I do ? I have checked the drivers, uninstalled and installed them again, I have unisntalled and installed itunes several times now, i have tried the devices in other computers also with Windows 7 and they are working OK, so its itunes so is not the cable nor the ipods or ipad...
I dont know what else I can do ...
Would someone please have any ideas on how to solve this ?

I had the exact same problem...and literally, even after calling Apple Help this morning and them emailing what was supposed to fix it, I was still stuck in the same boat. However, after much searching, I found a post on the internet, did what it said, and, as of this morning, my iPod, and my kid's iPods, are now recognized.
Since the most recent iTunes update none of our iPods are recognized by iTunes. Our PC is smart enough to recognize my iPod, but iTunes is not.
After MUCH aggravation....AFTER trying all the fixes outlined by Apple Support, AFTER contacting Apple Help and doing what they said, NOTHING WORKED.
I searched the internet again and found the simplest of instructions. They explain that with the new iTunes update some iPods are being recognized as digital cameras rather than iPods, which mine was doing. This is how I fixed it. Do not have iTunes open.
Attach your iPod to your computer.
1. Open the Device Manager. (To do this right click on My Computer or Computer, click on Properties, and then click on Device Manager).
2. Find your iPod. Normally it will show up on it's own, but since your computer is recognizing it as a digital camera it may be under something else; mine was under Portable Devices.
Even though it is saying drivers are up to date based on all Apple Fixes, you DO HAVE TO MANUALLY UPDATE DRIVERS...and this is what you have to do!
3. Select the Apple iPod by double clicking on it when you find it.
4. Select Driver on the tabs and click on Update Driver.
5. Choose Browse My Computer for Driver Software. Once opened, you must locate this file: Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. Select that folder and Click Next. Once the update is complete, unplug your iPod. Wait 30 seconds and plug it back in...your computer should now recognize the iPod.
To whoever found out about this fix and posted it online, THANK YOU!!! I have spent hours and hours following Apples advice to no avail...but this fix, posted online by someone else, DID work...so thank you for posting it...and I am just passing it on!
Let me know if it works for you...it takes all of 5 minutes and it worked for me this morning!

IPhone not being recognized by iTunes, after 10.5 upgrade

I finally (!!) upgraded to Leopard and am now at 10.5.5. All has gone smoothly, with one exception. When I connect my iPhone via the provided USB cable, iTunes doesn't recognize it. iPhoto does, and the iPhone does charge while connected to the USB cable. I've tried both USB ports on my MBP, as well as the older style iPod cable and the newer generation iPhone cable. Also, my iPod DOES connect and is recognized by iTunes.
Help!

Any major jump requires purchase of the different version. Your cheapest alternative right now would be to get the Snow Leopard upgrade disc for $29. You do not need Leopard as an intermediate step. Just make sure your computer and your software are ready for it:
[Snow Leopard 10.6 Technical Requirements|http://www.apple.com/macosx/techspecs> - [note by +K Shaffer+|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12924036#12924036] : "Some early Intel-based Macs can't use Snow Leopard 10.6 installers;of those, the Core Duo (not 2 duo) were suspect and had issues." - and a [qualifier by +a brody+|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=13028822#13028822]: "I think that refers to the ones without at least 1 GB of RAM."
A Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Application Compatibility List - [http://snowleopard.wikidot.com>
Another approach is to decide why you are upgrading. If there isn't some new feature you absolutely must have the cheapest alternative is simply to use the highest iTunes version for Tiger. iTunes 9.2.1 [http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1056]
If it were me, I'd get Snow Leopard. Usually OS updates are $130 but for details not worth going into at this stage, you can use this opportunity to do an update much cheaper.

IPod not being recognized by iTunes or Windows XP

I just got a ipod nano for my birthday and I've been trying to set it up for two days, I've got the latest version of Itunes and I've tried everything I could think of and my Ipod is still not being detected by my computer or iTunes. When I plug it into my usb port, it starts to charge but nothing else happens, can someone please help me?

To resolve this issue i unistalled Itunes and quicktime, then looked for diffrent USB ports once found I put iPod nano in and re-installed Itunes and quicktime

My nano is not being recognized by Itunes on Windows 8.1

I've changed drive paths and uninstalled and reinstalled I-tunes - still not recognizing my Nano, although Windows is.

iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes

I have a brand new iPad 2 and it is not being "seen" by iTunes for Windows (64 bit Win 7)

I originally had my iTunes library (music, apps, etc) on a MacBook. Used "home sharing" to drag over most of my collection to my new Windows 7 laptop. All apps, music, etc show up fine in iTunes on Windows but when I unpacked my new iPad 2 and plugged the apple cable into the USB port on my Windows laptop and the other end in my iPad 2, no synching occured nor did the iPad 2 show up on the left-hand list on iTunes.
Any idea what might be wrong? I did already try different USB ports. Each time I plug and unplug I get the audible notification from my laptop that the cable is disconnected and/or connected. so it's not a hardware issue.

A Couple of questions..
Is the location shown under preferences/Advanced/General still showing the correct location?
Is the check boxes under this checked or unchecked?

Storage increase not being recognized by iTunes for movie download

I purchased additional storage bc the videos I was trying to download could not complete however now when I try to resume downloading the videos I am still getting errors saying that I do not have enough storage even though settings shows more than enough. I tried restating all my devices but the videos still will not resume download. One of the videos is a rental that I purchased on iTunes and I'm concerned that it will only respect my purchase rights if I delete it. The other videos are a tv show that I purchased in iTunes and I tried delete and re-downloading but to no avail. Has anyone ever had this issue before?

If you've bought extra iCloud storage then you've bought extra space for your backups, that won't give you any extra space for downloading content onto your iPad.
Your current available space on your iPad is shown in Settings > General > About > Available - if the film that you are trying to download is in HD format then it could be 5.5+ gig (It's size should be shown on its description page in the store)
