Updated iTunes to latest version (10.4.1.10) resulted in computer no longer recognising my iPhone 4. Uninstalled and then reinstalled iTunes, still my iPhone is not detected by iTunes.

Please can anyone help…..

c) unistalled and reinstalled iTunes
Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

My iPhone 5 not detected on iTunes 11

My iPhone 5 not detected on iTunes 11

Because both iTunes and the version of OS X are too old to support the iPhone 5.
You are going to have to purchase the install DVD for Snow Leopard and then upgrade to it. Once there you will need to update to 10.6.8 and then iTunes 10.7 should install.

Can you try to connect to another computer?
DFU mode would be the last thing to try before contacting Apple Support or visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store.

Iphone 3gs not recognized by iTunes 10.3.1, Windows 7 64bit

Iphone 3gs, 4.3.2
iTunes 10.3.1
Windows 7, 64-bit
Ever since iTunes updated I am unable to sync my iphone 3gs. I have tried the following steps:
-Uninstalling all iTunes and related software (per apple support steps), restarting, reinstalling all itunes software. Did not work.
-Trying several different USB cables, did not work.
-Tried all USB ports on my computer, did not work.
-Restarting phone/computer, did not work.
-Turning off antivirus software (Avast) and firewall (ZoneAlarm), did not work.
I tried syncing with my friends computer (iTunes 10.3.1 and Windows Vista), and it worked! Unfortunately none of my music is on that computer.
Next, I came across an article and tried the advice listed (install ifunbox on pc, delete itunes.db and itunes.cdb files on Iphone). This allowed my iphone to be recognized by iTunes. It began to sync, and gave me the following error: Unable to sync because the disk is not available.
I unplugged the phone and plugged it back in, it began to sync again. This time it went through all of the aps succesfully and got about halfway throught the music portion, and then iTunes froze. I restarted both systems and this happened the last 5 or 6 times...iTunes freezes during the music sync portion.
One other interesting note...in iTunes, the space claim bar (colored bar on bottom of sync screen) shows that there should be about 5 GB of music on my iphone, however the ipod app on the iphone shows no music.
Ughh sorry for the long post I am so frustrated right now.

Nope, haven't been able to fix it. I was able to get some songs to sync by 'manually managing songs' however the songs were all corrupt. They either wouldn't play, or they would start in the middle of the song, and the beginning of the song would somehow be spliced in to the middle of the song!
So frustrating. I can't get apps to sync either.
At this point I am not even going to try syncing my phone until a new iOS or iTunes comes out.
For now I have resorted to jaibreaking so that I can at least have a little fun with it

Ipad and Iphone will not detect via Itunes

Ok here is the issue,
I have IPhone 4 Verizon and Ipad 2 3g Verizon.
My Ipad2 screen broke and I received a warranty Ipad 2 but my Dellinspiron with the Intel 3400 chip will not detect on iTunes.
Windows 7 see it and I can pull photos off. I worked with Apple onissue and at store with 10 reps. my old I pad detects just fine and my IPhone but any other
IPhone or I pad will not detect. I have tried and wiped ITunes, QuickTimeect ect and even went into registry and deleted all files and still same issue.
It’s boiling down to the Intel chip 3200 and its almost lookingfor a certain IPhone or I pad and will not detect any other but original phoneor pad.
If anyone is experiencing a similar issue let me know. I have been allthe way up the ladder at both apple and dell and still the issue looms.
Thanks
Phil
If any other info is needed let me know. I have both the diagnostic test for my laptop and itunes.
I can post diagnostic from CPU if needed.

This is reported quite often.. more often the iphone than the ipad.
Reset the TC and do the setup again. This time setup wireless manually.. use no spaces and only alphanumeric characters in any name and password.. TC name, wireless name, wireless password tc password if you set one.
Set wireless to manual not auto, and give 5ghz a different name.
Set channels.. this is the important part for iphone as it can only use 2.4ghz.. so set channel 1, 6, 11 in turn. These are the only non-overlapping channels.
Set wpa2 security.
You should be able to get the iphone to connect.. if not remove the security until you do and try again.

Iphone 3GS not detected by Xcode

I'm not sure if this is a problem with my phone or my computer. My phone is not being detected by Xcode and does not appear in the organizer. When I plug it in iPhoto opens automagically and sees the phone, but nothing appears in Xcode.
It worked just fine a few days ago, my provisioning profile was set up and I was happily testing apps on the device. I have not changed or updated Xcode since, the phone simply stopped appearing.
I've tried the following (in increasing order of desperation):
Restart Iphone;
Restart Xcode;
Restart computer and phone;
Open Xcode in 32-bit mode;
Delete existing provisioning profile in Xcode;
Restore Iphone from Itunes (on another computer than the one i'm using for development);
Switch USB ports;
Confirm I'm using the original Apple USB cord;
Google furiously for answers;
Things I haven't yet tried:
Restore Iphone without restoring backup afterwards (will probably try next, but would be a hassle.);
Borrow another Iphone to test on this computer;
Give up & get an Android phone;
I'm using an Iphone 3GS running iOS 4.0.2, Xcode 3.2.3, on OSX 10.6.3.
Any help or insight would be much appreciated,
Owen

This seems to be a software issue.
Removing & reinstalling Xcode solved it.
Frustrating, but solvable.

IPhone 3GS not recognized in itunes and xcode on imac i7

I've got an issue where my iphone 3GS is no longer recognized by my iMac i7 in either itunes or xcode. Iphoto does see my iphone. If I hook it up to my macbook it works fine. Is anybody aware of something strange as far as imac i7 and iphone is concerned. Strangely enough it did work about two weeks ago.
Help

You should have received a message saying your phone was detected in recovery mode and needed to be restored when you connected it to iTunes.
Try putting it in DFU mode to restore it, as explained here: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034.

IPhone 3GS not connecting with iTunes 10.1.1.4

Hey all,
I'm having a rather peculiar problem. Recently I had to do a factory restore of my HP Pavilion dv6, and I proceeded to download the latest version of iTunes. Whenever I try to sync my iPhone 3GS, it doesn't show up. Yes, I've tried everything. Reinstalling, resetting, restarting, msconfig settings and whatnot, and nothing works. It appears in Windows 7 just fine, with the autoplay box popping up every time I connect it and Windows Explorer noting it down as a digital camera. iTunes will not read the device.
Every time iTunes connects, however, a message box appears saying that it cannot burn CD/DVDs due to the fact that the registry settings used by iTunes for doing so is missing, and caused by a possibility of other CD/DVD burners already installed.
So I removed all the preinstalled junk that HP threw on my comp, and there are no CD/DVD burners on my computer now. Yet the dialog box is still the same.
So are the two related? Are these registry settings that I'm missing preventing me from syncing my iPhone? And if so, how do I fix it? I'm very tech-savvy so complicated instructions will not be a problem (hopefully!). Cheers.

IPhone 3GS not showed in iTunes after update to Version 4.0

Hi,
I just made an firmware update using iTunes to my 3GS.
The installation went well, and the iPhone is working great.
But the problem is that iTunes is not displaying the iPhone anymore.
I already tried everything listed on the Apple support page, but nothing will help.
iTunes is also the latest version (9.2).
Windows is still recognizing the iPhone, the erroe is just in iTunes.
When i connect the 3GS iTunes freezes completely for about 1 minute. Then iTunes runs again, but not showing the 3GS.
I already searched several forums but couldn't find a solution.
Can anyone help me please?
Because the iPhone without iTunes is worthless for me...
Thanks in advance!!!

Same issue here, tried all the recommended solutions, but no change: Iphone shows in Windows, but Itunes does not recognize... (same issue on 2 different computers, phone itself is OK, it shows on other computers, just not on mine...)

IPhone 3G not detected by iTunes. Not the same problem like everyone has!

I have iPhone 3G. It shows on screen, connect iTunes all the times. I read all the solutions on internet. I tried everything to fix the problem even Restore Mode or DFU Mode, but iPhone never detected by iTunes or computer. I tired both Mac or Windows Computers, but still nothing. Any ideas??? This forum is my last chance. I gonna break this phone if still nothing and buy a different brand. I don't wanna pay $268.00 to Apple, change with the refurbished one. I paid much enough to buy this one. Thanks for all help.

The iPhone can only sync on one computer. Is this a new phone or an old phone? If it's a phone you already had, did you change computers? If the phone you had was already synced on another computer then it may have to be deauthorized on that other computer, but I'm not sure. I had an older original iPhone that we replaced and then I wanted to use it as a iPod. I forgot that I had synced it with an older computer. When I connected it to mine my iTunes would recognize it, but wouldn't let me sync to it because it was synced to another computer. So I had to connect it to the older computer, deauthorize it and then it synced fine on my new computer. Not sure if that is a similar issue to yours or not. You need to give us more information. Like were you able to sync it before and this is something new etc. More info that you give the easier it will be for someone to answer you.

IPhone 3G not detected by itunes or not fully charging.

IPhone 3Gs Not Detecting Carriers

HI All,
My iPhone 3Gs is not detecting any carriers. I have just upgraded to ios 5.
I have tried my SIM in another phone and it is working OK. The phone was unlokced by O2 and I have tried an O2 SIM in it which also does not work.
When I manually search for carriers then none are found.
I'm beginning to think this is a hardware fault.
Any ideas?

Cheers for the reply.
I left the phone overnight and then performed a normal restore. The phone worked perfectly for a day, then got stuck on the apple symbol. Since then I have not been able to restore at all. When I try a restore it gets to the end of the process then I get the following error message:
An unknown error has occurred (-1).
I'm starting to face up to this being a hardware issue, but would welcome any feedback or potential things I can try to recover this phone.
Cheers again.

Iphone 3GS not syncing to Itunes and credit card declining with funds

I've been researching this for 2 months now and I know there are many with the same issue(s). Has there been a solution to this yet?
Issues:
-credit card declining with sufficient funds available
-Itunes does not recognize the iphone
-unable to purchase songs
-when there has been a new release or update, my iphone will all of a sudden sync.
Thanks for any assistance or pointers.

Hello Paul....
Hmm. My phone had a crack in the screen and got a bit wet in my bag when a drink leaked. It didn't turn on for a few days but then it worked again despite the fact the LED screen was a bit damaged but it was locked on the Emergency Calls only screen.
Anyway, today I did some trouble shooting and I was successful in connecting the iPhone with iTunes and selected "restore".
This meant iTunes did export software and I could then see the little progress bar active on my iphone...
Now my iPhone seems to be unlocked because it is not in the emergency screen anymore but it is asking my to select a language and then a country and then I cannot get any further....
In Devices in iTunes it says.... "There is a problem with your iPhone, please visit the Service Answer Centre."
Do you think I can revive it?
Regardless, I have good news! I found my lost iPhone 4s so I am a really happy bunny.
It would still be cool to the 3Gs working as I use it for my iPod.
