Iphone5s is not being detected by itunes or iphoto when using USB or wi-fi

The Iphone is able to charge, so its not the USB cable. MacBook can not recognize the phone and nothing happens when i go into Itunes or Iphoto.
does not show up on right top bar.
software is all up to date, I've tried rebooting...nothing is working
Help please
Cheers

Aloha,
Uninstall Itunes and Apple Mobile Device Service. Re Install Itunes, RESTART your computer. Open itunes then connect your phone with USB cable, it should show up! I think the Apple Mobile Service is to blame, hope it works for you~
Cheers

Ipod 4g 32G not turning on, not charging (on multiple cords, both comp and wall, 4 20min), not being detected by Itunes or Windows 7 64bit OS, will not reset, tried taking it out of "DFU", NO DMG, Itunes up2date, All I'm getting is a blank black scrn

Ipod Touch 4th generation 32G not turning on, not charging.
I have used multiple cords on both computer USB and wall USB converters. I let it sit there for over 20 min with each attempt.
It is not being detected by Itunes or my Windows 7 64bit OS. I have tried all 4 of my USB ports (both USB 2.0 and 3.0), with 3 different chargers.
Holding home and power button will not reset.
Tried taking it out of "DFU" mode but Itunes won't detect it, I didn't think that would work anyway.
NO DAMAGE, I have been very careful with it, aside from a few minor scratches. (that you can't even see unless the light reflects them)
My Itunes is up to date, as is my OS.
All I'm getting is a blank black screen. It has been working fine on this computer before. I have no idea what could have happened. I'm at my wits end here.

See if you missed anything here:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

PLEASE HELP! My iPod is not being detected on iTunes!

I know everyone is posting about this, but nothing seems to be working. I've done tons of research and tried it all!
Here's the story: My 1st iPod has been using the firmware 1.1.1, until I recently decided to update it. It was updated to 1.1.5, and the moment iTunes was restarted, it could no longer be detected by iTunes! My iPod has been working fine before the update, so it can't be the iPod itself. I've listed below all the things I've tried! The iPod DOES appear in My Computer, but NOT in iTunes (using iTunes 8, but I have tried uninstalling and reintalling different versions)
Things I've tried and haven't worked:
- Restarting the computer and iPod
- Resetting the iPod by holding the Home and Sleep button
- Uninstall/Reinstall iTunes (several times, on different versions)
- http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1852?viewlocale=en_US
- Apple Support's 5 R's, and related articles
- Thread suggestion: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1821771&tstart=0
- iPod not recognized on laptop article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1401
- Starting/Stopping the iPod Service and Apple Mobile device
- Uninstalling and reinstalling the device in Device Manager
- Plugging into different USB ports (they were fully functional before firmware update)
- Plugging into a different computer (where it was also not detected on iTunes)
I believe my problem is maybe that I need to reinstall the firmware, but I can't do this without it being detected on iTunes! Any ideas???
I really hope someone out there can help me! I am so frustrated and stuck with this problem and have been going around in circles! Thanks so much for ANYONE's help!

look at the brightside at least your computer sees yours

HT203128 My iPad is not being detected by iTunes after I updated to the latest version of iTunes. What should I do?

After updating to the new version of iTunes, my iPad 2 is not being detected when I tried to sync. Any solutions?

A few things to try. Any one or a combo mayhelp
Reset your iPad.
Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. Then plug it back in and see if it is seen now.
Try a different USB port
Reboot your computer
If you have a PC:
If that doesn't fix it, go into the control panel, add/remove programs. Uninstall iTunes, apple Mobile device service, apple application support.
Then redownload and reinstall iTunes. then try again.

IPhone 6 and iPod Touch 5 not being detected by iTunes 12

iPod 5 and iPhone 6 is not being detected after I downloaded iTunes 12.1.2
Tried changing the lightning conductor, that didn't help either.
Re-installed iTunes but it was of no use. :/

See iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Hey! I have had an Ipod touch for about 7 years and it has always worked! but for some reason i plugged it into my laptop and my computer is recognizing that it is plugged in but my itunes isnt what do I do?

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

IPod not being detected by iTunes..

Alright, so lately been iTunes decides to not copy some video files converted with Videora, but didn't really care till I had this video really wanted to watch. So, I check Apple Support>Do5 5Rs, which when I get upto Restore,it does nothing but copy less video files after, and 105 podcasts out of 255! GR8, how useful! Give it another try, and now it fails, and after that I cannot detect the iPod at all!!!!!!!
I did Diagnostics and it does find iPod, the program detects it but it fails a sync test, interestingly enough it doesn't show it as a device!!!!
Also, I reinstalled, cleared Registry, did the Windows Installer Clean thingie, deleted Temp, did Disk Mode, nothing. When connected, just says on iPod, connected, eject b4 disconnecting!
So, what to do?

Alright, fixed by going to My Computer> selecting the iPod and doing Disk Check, and automatically fix errors, the first one.
But prob now is it still won't sync all the videos, why?!!!

My ipad2 16 gb wifi not being detected by itunes

hi i bought a new ipad2 16 GB wifi, and connected to itunes,when it asked for upgradation for ipad2 ios 4.3.3 i downloaded the same and tried updating the OS but midway the updating got stuck and now neither itunes detects the ipad2 and the ipad2 is showing in its screen as updating not able to do any function on the ipad2, neither sleep switch of none of the functions work just the screen is switched on showing updating.please do let me know how to reset the ipad2 and go to the previous version.the itunes is not at all able to sync nor detect the ipad2.

A reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

IPad Not Being Detected by iTunes

All of a sudden, iTunes has stopped recognizing my iPad when it's connected. This wasn't a problem a couple of days ago and now it is.
iTunes may have been updated recently, so that may be it.
The only way I can get iTunes to recognize my iPad is to restart to Apple device detection service or to restart my computer, both of which are a PITA.
How do I revert to the old version of iTunes? I think that is the problem.
P.S. Now, and this is new, whenever I connect my iPad to my computer I am asked on the iPad to trust this computer. I keep replying yes, but that doesn't do any good. Every time I replug in the iPad, I am asked that question again.
P.P.S. Up to date Pre-Air iPad and Windows 8.1

So now none of my work-arounds are working and I am unable to sync anything to my iPad.
P.S. Now it looks like the issue was the stupid "Trust this computer" pop-up on the iPad, which I didn't think to check for (because I've clicked "Trust" at least 20 times before).

(Another) iPod nano not being detected by iTunes

My replacement 4GB nano is not recognized by iTunes (I have the latest version 6.0.5). It is recognized in My Computer (D:); however, when I try to run iPod Updater (either 3-23-06 version or 6-28-06 one) I either get an iPod service error msg, an iPod internal manager error or it hangs and does nothing while trying to initialize. iPod Service is running and I've also reinstalled the COM I/F for iPod Service. I've disabled the 'switch user' feature (running XP). Could connecting my iPod before loading the later Updater software caused this?
Any suggestions?

O WOW! i had this same problem and i had to call the apple store and was on the phone for 30 minutes while they helped me alot! what you have to do is reformat your drive! so you are going to go to start and on my computers you are going to right click and then hit manage!ok now you are going to have to find where your ipods format is and make sure it says healthy! i dont remember what to do next but if someone remembers help me finish! now your ipod isnt broken so dont freak because i had this same thing! but if you need help call 1800apple and they are so nice and will help you!! and then you might want to post better instructions because this happeneed a week ago and i forgot how to do it~~
