Iphone not recognized after upgrading to itunes 8.2

Phone not recognized in itunes after the 8.2 update, is this a bug?

Ok, I've found a workaround on another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9658855).
According to that poster (he has an iPod Touch), Apple Tech Support told him to disconnect his computer from the Internet, and then try to connect his iPod Touch. This worked for him. I just tried it and it works reliably.
After reading the post I plugged out my Internet connection from my laptop, and then connect my iPhone. It was detected. I repeated this 4 more times and each time the device was detected and came up in my iTunes sidebar. I then restarted my machine and tried it again 5 times. It worked all 5 times. When I reconnected my machine to the Internet, the problem came back the very next time I plugged my phone in.

  • IPhone not recognized after Leopard and iTunes 7.6 upgrade -- solution

    I did the iTunes 7.6 upgrade and then the Leopard install this past weekend. Everything seemed to work fine until I tried to sync my phone... iTunes didn't recognize that it was there, although I had power, etc.
    Briefly, the solution is to reinstall iTunes 7.6. It may well be that if you do Leopard and then 7.6 you're fine, but I ended up doing it the other way.
    This link below is to the relevant thread on the iPhone forum:

    Thank you Jennifer. That was very helpful. I'm new to Apple MacOS. Not new to computing by any stretch however, having been a DE at Sun for 9 years, 2 years at Cisco and a couple of lesser known startups in Silly Valley. I hope their are more folks like you on these forums, and fewer like 'South Beach'. Thanks again for the iPhoto tip, that was very helpful. I did get the iPhone 'fixed' by re-installing the iTunes 7.6 pkg. You wouldn't happen to know how to turn off the boogus status icon in my launcher bar (top of screen) that complains about .Mac 'conflicts'? I don't have a .Mac account and don't want one. When I select 'review conflicts now' nothing happens, no dialogue, no new windows, nothing. This glyph appeared after I installed Leopard. I am less than impressed with this release from Cupertino.

  • IPod touch not recognized after upgrading to iTunes 9.0.2

    Hi,
    I've an iPod touch 16GB firmware version 3.1.2. I let it sync with my iMac (2006 white plastic) running Mac OS X 10.4.11. I've just upgraded my iTunes form 9.01 to 9.02, and my iMac does not recognize iPod touch when I plug-in the USB connector. I can't see iPod touch in the iTunes, and the iPod touch does not even show the charging screen.
    Then I tried to connect iPod touch to my MacBookPro 13" 2009 running Mac OS X 10.6.2 and iTunes 9.0.2, and it works just what it should be.
    Does iTunes 9.0.2 incompatible with Mac OS X 10.4.11 ?
    I'll try to do some self-cleaning tasks and try it again.

    Ok, my bad.
    After repairing permission and clearing cache, now it worked.

  • Iphone not recognized after upgrading to Windows 7

    I know a lot of people have problems in this area, but most (?) seem to have the P55 chipset. I don't believe my Acer Aspire 6930 has that chipset, but ever since upgrading to Windows 7 I can't see my iphone in itunes.
    Windows recognizes it, as I can see it in the device list, and even import pictures off of it. But itunes refuses to see it.
    I've uninstalled/reinstall/uninstalled/reinstalled itunes a number of times and have gotten nowhere.

  • Some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0

    some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0
    have upgraded and some songs which used to play on iTunes 7 no longer play. album art is missing. when trying to play on of these songs, nothing appears in the playbar at the top of the window.
    it seems the same problem exists in the mac os environment.

    The solution I discovered to fix this problem was to create a smart playlist with all song of a kind containing MPEG. Then I went through album by album, and coverted ID3 tags using the value of NONE. This then enabled me to play the songs in iTunes 8.0 and in many cases restored the Album Art.
    Thanks!

  • HT1414 iphone not recognized in windows or itunes

    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.

  • Ipod not connecting after upgrade to itunes 8

    After upgrading to itunes 8 my ipod (nano) will no longer connect to my computer and is not recognised by itunes. When I connect the ipod I get the windows 'install new hardware wizard' running but however I try to work through this I get nowhere. Looking at Device Manager in Windows says there are no drivers for the ipod - it has a little exclamation mark next to it.
    My wifes brand new ipod will also not connect and its straight out of the box.
    Not at all sure what to do next. The support pages don't seem to cover getting the install new hardware wizard. Any help or advice please!.

    Having reported this to my dealer, and them agreeing to supply a new lead to try, I had one final attempt at resetting the iPod.
    Having restored, reset and updated the iPod half a dozen times before without success, a reset as described here:
    http://www.apple.com/uk/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    worked and it is now merrily playing again in the car with the original lead.
    It would seem that Apple have developed another piece of spectacularly temperamental equipment........and people slate Microsoft!
    Hope it works for you as well!

    But now, with my iphone working as new, it still cannot be showed up in itunes. I am still working on it.

  • HT4623 iPhone not recognized by computer or iTunes

    I attempted to update my iPhone 5 to the newest version using iTunes on my computer, and my iPhone is now in recovery mode, and is not recognized by either my computer or iTunes.  From the research that I have done, it appears to be a driver issue, but after uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, attempting to manually search for the driver (which I located on my computer, but the computer would not recognize), and searching for the driver online ("access denied" response message appears), I am at a loss as to what to do.  Can anyone help?

    I retried the steps listed in HT1808; iTunes didn't open, and my computer replayed the "failed" connection tone.  Is there a way to get around the "access denied" message that comes when I try to update the connection driver for the phone?  When I attempt to find the driver online, I recieve that message, and when I attempt to search out the driver manually, I receive a message saying that the driver can't be found (while I have already located it through the regular file explorer.

  • IPhone not recognized after Mac security update

    I have a Mac iBook G4 running OSX 10.4.11, and an iPhone 3G running OS 3.0. Up to now they have worked fine together. The phone was charged on the iBook this morning. This afternoon I ran software update on the Mac which installed the latest security update (2009-05, I think). After that, the phone is not recognized when plugged in the USB port. It no longer charges, nor is it recognized by iTunes.
    I have checked the following to be sure that the security update is the culprit:
    The iPhone with the same cable works fine on another Mac (running 10.5).
    Other devices (thumb drive, printer) work fine in the same USB ports.
    Finally, I restarted the iBook from the original installation CD for OSX 10.4. When running with the original version, the iPhone is recognized correctly.
    So, I am reporting a problem with the security update, and I need to know how to back it off, or how to get it fixed.
    Thanks for any help.
    NOTE: Software update also installed iTunes 9.0.1 along with updates to Quicktime and Safari. However, none of these apps even have to be running to show that the phone will not charge.

    The problem was solved by resetting the System Management Unit, thanks to a helpful phone call with an Apple Expert. On the iBook this required unplugging, removing the battery, and holding the power button in for 15 seconds.
    Earlier I tried zapping the PRAM, as someone suggested, but the phone was not recognized. But it turns out it did show up in the System Profiler.
    I have no idea why this happened in the first place, right after the software update.
