ITouch doesn't show up as a device in iTunes

My sister registered and installed my new iTouch. It used to show up as a "Device" on iTunes, but no longer does.
I've downloaded the most recent version of iTunes and restarted both the iTouch and computer. When I do plug in the iTouch, I only get the computer's "Auto-Play" message asking me if I want to import pictures, download from files, etc. It's the same message I get when I plug in a flash drive or my camera.
I realize this is not the most complicated question posted here : )
Help?

  • My iPhone doesn't show up as a Device in iTunes via wi-fi.

    How come I can't sync by wi-fi? My iPhone doesn't show up as a Device in iTunes unless it's connected by USB cable. "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" is checked in iTunes. (I can sync ONLY by USB cable--ironic because I won't upgrade to Mavericks until it allows USB local syncing.) What am I missing?

    iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1

    Is your iPhone plugged in to a charger?  I believe that is a requirement for WiFi sync.

    I sync my iPhone and iPad to my Mac running Mavericks using USB local syncing all the time.
    Maybe you're referring to the fact that iCloud is the sync mechanism for Contacts and Calendars now.  If not, I don't understand your comment.

  • I'm not able to sync my Iphone 4.  It doesn't show up as a device in iTunes.

    I'm in need of help getting my IPhone 4 to sync with my pc.  I have downloaded the latest update for iTunes.  When I connect my IPhone using the USB cord, it is not recognized in iTunes.  There is no "devices" tab on the left and I don't see any options for syncing.  Can someone please help?

  • Itouch doesn't show up in Itunes

    My 1st gen Itouch (software version 2.2.1) doesn't show up when I'm running Itunes (9.1) on an Imac (10.6.3). It "beeps" when I plug in the USB cable and the Itouch states that it is charging but the Itouch doesn't show up as a device in Itunes.
    When I plug the same Itouch into an Ibook G4 (10.4) running Itunes (9.1) it does show up and sync.
    How can I fix this problem?

    check this thread and see if any of the suggestions work.

  • TS1286 At my PC startup, I get an error message "AppleSyncNotifier.exe--Entry Point Not Found"  My iPhone now doesn't show up as a Device in either iTunes or My Computer on my PC. I've uninstalled/ reinstalled iTunes & run diagnostics-no luck. Ideas?

    At my PC startup, I get an error message "AppleSyncNotifier.exe--Entry Point Not Found"  My iPhone now doesn't show up as a Device in either iTunes or My Computer on my PC. I've uninstalled/ reinstalled iTunes & run diagnostics-no luck. Ideas?

    I think my problem is fixed now.
    For the fun of it, I reinstalled iTunes 9.2.1 today (using the exact same installer as I did yesterday), but this time I didn't uninstall iTunes first. As expected, iTunes recognized my iPhone (as I expected it to, until my next reboot).
    A few minutes later, Software Update showed up and among the updates is "iPhone SDK Compatibility Update". The description indicates that installing this should fix an issue where iPhones and iPod touches aren't recognized by iTunes. Isn't that interesting?
    I installed that update and most of the others waiting for me (including Java, Safari 5.0.1, and a few others - not 10.6.4 though, due to the issues with nVidia graphics cards). After the reboot, I started iTunes, and it saw my iPhone!
    So, if you're having this same problem, I'd recommend tracking down this update and see if that does the trick for you. Hopefully it will.

  • I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my device.

    I am signed in to my wifes iphone and it has been stolen. Tried tracking it with find my iphone, but it doesn't show up in my devices. She doesn't have  a separate id. Any ideas why or what I could do to make it would be greatly appreciated.

    It was still turned on, I am tracking with life360, but apple's tracking is more accurate. I just wondered why the phone doesn't show up in my devices on iCloud if I am signed in on it with my apple id. Thanks

  • Often, when I connect my iPod Touch to the PC, instead of it showing up as a device in iTunes, a window pops up that says I have connected a camera, and asks what to do.  It is really annoying when this happens, because sometimes I cannot update my iPod

    Often, when I connect my iPod Touch 2G to the PC, instead of showing up as a device on iTunes, a pop-up appears that says I have connected a camera and asks what I want to do.  This device doesn't have a camera in it.  When this happens, (not always)I can't update my iPod, no matter how many times I try to connect it.  I have an old Nano that has never had this problem at all.  Can anyone tell me what to do about this?

  • IPhone 4: My IPhone keeps in the "plug-into-iTunes-screen" after trying to update to iOS 5.0. The phone is not showing up as a device in iTunes anymore.

    My IPhone doesn't turn on and keeps in the "plug-into-Tunes-screen" after update to new IOs 5.0 yesterday. I also tried to restore it, but it still keeps in the plugin mode. In ITunes the IPhone doesn't show up as a device anymore, but Windows 7 detects it as a camera. I started the problem diagnose via ITunes and it says "iPhone can't be found".I'm using the new version of iTunes.
    Can anyone help me?

    I have the exact same problem and have just logged on here to see if anyone can help also?  My iphone is up and working but itunes won't recognise it as a device... just updated itunes aswell.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated!!

  • Why won't iPad1 show up as a Device in iTunes when the iPad is Wi-Fi and powered up?

    iPad1 is properly designated to be Wi-Fi sync'd to the Windows 7 64.
    iPad correctly shows Device in iTunes; and correctly sync's in iTunes when tethered to computer via USB.
    No Device listed  in iTunes when iPad is on and powered by 10w power cube.
    Network connects.
    iCloud backup works when Wi-Fi.
    iPad USED to be visible to iTunes when on and powered and on Wi-Fi.
    Some anti-miracle occured.
    Need exorcist.

    Thank you for your reply; however I don't believe that your advice fits my circumstance - in that my device (in this case, the iPad) DID show up as a Device in iTunes last week - when connected via Wi-Fi (that is, powered up and on the home network and with iTunes open in the Windows 7 computer).
    I was then able to communicate (read: sync) between the iPad and the computer NOT using the USB cable-connect to the computer - merely via Wi-Fi.
    I can not repeat that miracle this week (meaning, that I must hook up the iPad1 to the computer via the USB cable, where it does register as a Device in iTunes - and it does go thru the 6 steps of sync.
    Did I grossly missinterpret your instructions?
    Thank you, in advance, for any additional assistance.
