Iphone says restore but doesn't appear in itunes.

i was using my iphone when all of a sudden it shut off. when it came back on it showed the symbol that suggests i needed to connect it to itunes, even though it was already connected and just wasn't showing up. it will only let me make emergency calls and says imei: unknown and iccid: unknown. originally it just said that i needed to enter a pass code, but the phone isn't showing up in itunes and i can't do anything on the phone except for make emergency calls so i can't enter a passcode. now it's saying restore needed but again, when i connect it to my computer it won't show up in itunes.
help please? i don't know what to do. i've had my iphone for about a year and a half, and i got it from rogers, it wasn't like a jailbreak phone or anything, and it was working fine up until today when out of the blue this happened. anything i can do?

Want to remove a podcast that shows on the ipod itself but doesn't appear in the library under itunes

I have a podcats on my ipod touch that doesn't appear in the podcast library that I want to remove. Deleting all the podcasts & replacing them with new podcasts doesn't help. Any ideas?

Hi
Go to the apple.com to download the latest iTunes and ipod updater and install accorindingly, then do a Reset of your iPod i.e. Press "Menu"+"Select" keys. Connect it with your iBook and open iPod updater, hope it will allow you to do a Restore. If failed, then press "Select"+"Play" keys to put your iPod in Disk Mode, connect it back with your iBook, open the iTunes and you will able to see your iPod there. Then open the ipod updater and do a restore. You may need to do a few attempts in order to achieve the solution

If iPod is not recognized in Windows and iTunes AND Add New Hardware Wizard gives the message: "Cannot run two device installations," then is the solution:
SOLUTION
MAKE A SYSTEM RESTORE POINT
THEN
Click Start->Run, type "regedit.exe" in the Open box, and click OK.
2. Navigate to HKEYLOCALMACHINE\System\Setup"
3. If there is any key or values named "FactoryPreInstallInProgress", please right click and delete it.
4. Restart Computer
THIS WILL DO THE TRICK

Iphone charges on my computer, but doesn't appear in itunes devices

My iPhone, which I have used with my laptop before, will now not appear in iTunes, but the phone is charging. I'm not getting any error messages, and the charge is normal - it just won't appear in iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes.

Yeah, I followed the advice they gave me at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 and I restarted everything. I decided to hook it up to my Windows XP laptop and it began to charge, but then said that the USB device was not working properly. My Mac doesn't give that message. I did a soft reset on the phone, but I'm reluctant to do a hard reset, since the last time I did that I was on the phone with tech support for several hours over the course of several days.

TS1410 By mistake I disconnected my iPod Classic when it said Do not disconnect. Now it doesn't appear in iTunes, but it does appear on my desktop. How can I get to reappear in iTunes (have tried resetting and rebooting).

By mistake I disconnected my iPod (5th generation) when it said Do not disconnect. Now it doesn't appear in iTunes, but it does appear on my desktop. How can I get to reappear in iTunes? I have tried resetting and rebooting. And my iTunes is up to date on my macbook pro, mountain lion, OS X 10.8.
Thank you!

The iPod's filesystem may be corrupted. This may seem like overkill, but it has been known to help many others in the same boat. Try doing a low level reformat of the iPod's hard disk using the instructions in this article.

Ipod doesn't appear in itunes or on desktop - trouble transfering music

When connecting Ipod, it doesn't appear in itunes or on desktop (Windows). Attempted to fix.
Reinstalled itunes and ipod, also upgraded itunes - no success in fixing.
Restored ipod (through computer)- no success in fixing - and of course, lost all songs in ipod.
Now, ipod sometimes appears in itunes, sometimes doesn't.
I've had a little success transfering songs (albeit, inconsistently) back to ipod from itunes, but sporadically.
Itunes is working fine when playing songs on computer;
Ipod working fine when playing songs on ipod. It's difficult transferring songs back to ipod. I checked cable and port with other equipment. Cable and port appear to be working. When clicking on Safely Remove Hardware, computer identifies ipod as "drive 0." I need help on how to get my ipod to appear in itunes again and fix the transfering problem?

Sometimes Windows see the demountable disk, but can't open it. Occasionally, when i charge nano, iTunes gives out the message, that iPod is damaged.
After connecting iPod to the computer, it shows the "Do not disconnect" screen, which not disappear after nano disconnecting. And I need reset iPod everytime after charging.
Does any help me?

I read this article.

How to solve the problem: as i wrote, iTunes diagnostic informs that can't find the controller IEEE 1394 (WiFi), but I HAVEN'T WiFi card on computer, I use USB 2.0.
