ITunes 10.2 (34) no longer sees any of my iOS devices

I've seen this problem on the PC iTunes boards, but it's happened to me on my Mac pro. Both my iPhone and my iPd are no longer 'seen' by latest iTunes. iPhoto still launches and works normally. But I can find no reason for the apparent cold shoulder from the new iTunes. I've tried all the basic stuff, restarts ETC. Any ideas?
Just to clarify, when I plug the ipad or iPhone 4 or the iphone 3 in, iTunes does nothing. iPhotos launches like normal, the devices 'beep' when connected. They charge. But iTunes ignores them.

Here's an update for those with a similar issue. I took the advice from another post and downloaded the iTunes DMG file. Installed it, more or less, over the auto-updated version, and it now works.
A little something-something went hooy in the auto update of iTunes I guess.

  • I've updated to the most recent version of iTunes and I can no longer see any of my old music on my mac.  All the music is still available on my ipad.  How can i download the music on my mac?

    I've updated to the most recent version of iTunes and I can no longer see any of my old music on my mac.  All the music is still available on my ipad.  How can i download the music on my mac?

    First, are you positive it is really not there?  Have you looked in your iTunes folder in your Music folder, and in the media folders there? Do you see your media files?
    If your media are gone it is a lot easier to restore from a proper computer backup.  Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • My old PowerPC G4 no longer sees any wireless networks

    My old PowerPC G4 no longer sees any wireless networks. The PowerPC and my new iMac was powered off for a week. When I powered them on, the iMac found the usual wireless networks that are seen around here but the PowerPC did not see ANY! Even though they sit next to each other!! The G4 worked fine before and was connected to the internet.
    The G4 has an AirPort card in it and IS enabled. Is the problem with the card (how do I verify?) or did something get turned off on the re-boot?
    BTW the AirPort card does shows up in the system info and has firmware version 9.52 but states that "wireless network not available" under the Current Wireless Network.
    How do I fix this?
    Please Help!

    As this is an old G4, I presume you have a PCI network card.
    I had a similar problem on my son's old G4. After a lot of messing around thinking it was a software problem, I discovered that the antenna was damaged and did not make a good connection to the card. I could get it to work intermittently by pushing it on. The solution was to buy a new card.
    So try manipulating the antenna connection at the back of your mac to see if you can get a signal.

  • HT204291 Is the Apple TV (Gen 1) no longer supporting Airplay from an IOS device (iPhone 4S)?

    Is the Apple TV (Gen 1) no longer supporting Airplay from an IOS device (iPhone 4S)?

    It's actually iOS - I used to be able to use audio Airtunes on the original iPhone, but the AppleTV doesnot list on most of my newer devices in the Apple iPod/Music app.
    Apple have deliberately omitted it for some reason while still supporting old Airport Express units.
    The only workaround is to use Apple's Remote app to control iTunes on a computer and use the Speaker option there.

  • HT204291 My airplay icon doesn't appear on any of my iOS devices or on my MacBook pro,what do I do please?

    I have followed the steps meticulously in apple support to troubleshoot this problem to no avail,also been on the phone to apple but one reaction was that he had never come across this problem,after following said steps,ie was completely baffled and so am I,the apple tv  works fine streaming Netflix .
    I would be most grateful for any suggestions, please!

    Before troubleshooting the problem, were you able to connect to your itune from ATV, ie. streaming music from itune to ATV?  
    I did encounter similar problem but the streaming from itune to ATV was OK. Then, I reset my IOS device then the airplay icon came back.

  • I can't get Apple TV mirroring to work from any of my iOS devices (Ipad2, iPhone 5 and iPad air).

    I can't get mirroring to work from any of my iOS devices (Ipad2, iPhone 5 and iPad air). I click on airplay, and select mirroring, but nothing appears on the tv screen and the connection with the Apple TV drops off after 5 seconds. Any ideas why

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
        1.    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
        2.    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
        3.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
        4.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        5.    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
        6.    Restart your mobile device.

  • ITunes 11.0.2 no longer sees my downloaded podcasts

    Upgraded to 11.0.2, and now when I select "Podcasts" in my library, it no longer shows any of my downloaded podcasts.  I downloaded an episode from a new podcast, and that displays in my library.  I have confirmed that all of the podcasts I am expecting to see are still available on my HDD.  Additionally, there are now two "Podcasts" in the selection for choosing what part of my library I want to view.
    I have already tried downloading and reinstalling iTunes, and that did not resolve the issue.
    Suggestions?  Ideas?  Help?
    Thanks.

    I experienced the same issue. I am familiar with it from previous versions of iTunes and located the correct "Show iTunes Purchases in the Cloud" checkbox on your screen capture. Wasn't on mine. I decided to reinstall iTunes 11.0.1 and, as you can see from my screen grab, it is there now.  Problem solved.

  • Iphoto on ipad no longer sees my photostream since IOS 7 upgrade

    iPhoto on my ipad no longer sees my photostream in the albums page of the iPhoto app since IOS 7 upgrade??
    I can see my photostream and shared photostreams in the ordinary Apple photo app on the iPad. Prior to IOS 7, all these photostreams were visible in the iPhoto app's albums page. What has changed? Its' most annoying as I was relying on my photostream in the iPhoto app as my source of photos for my journals.
    Any suggestions please???

    I've just had a long chat with Applecare in Colorado. Very helpful they were.
    I can confirm that the "new" IOS 7 version of iPhoto app on all IOS devises does not support your my photostream nor any of your pre IOS 7 upgrade shared photostreams.
    Any new post IOS 7 upgrade shared photostreams will be visible in the iphoto app. I have tested it and it works fine. But all your pre IOS 7 shared photostreams and existing my photostream remain invisible to post IOS 7 iPhoto app.
    This "improvement" to iPhoto on IOS devises is now a lame duck. Why ! I'm now on the lookout for a better photo journalling app for my iPad.

  • Cannot access Home Sharing or iTunes Wi-Fi Sync for any of my iOS devices.

    Hey,
    I have an iPhone 3GS and an iPad 2, both running iOS5, and the latest version of iTunes for Windows, and had previously had iTunes Wi-Fi Syncing working up until a week ago. Now I cannot even select the 'Sync Now' button on my devices, as they are saying that they cannot access OEM-PC (my computer).
    In addition, I have turned Home Sharing on in iTunes, and entered my Apple ID on both devices for Home Sharing, but I cannot access my iTunes library from either devices.
    I have followed all the steps that Apple's troubleshooting pages have recommended, but to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    A bit more info for those of you reading this.... the problem seemed to be in iTunes. For each connected device , if I clicked on the Photo option I could no longer select the second radio button for limiting the photos by Events, Albums, etc.  It was an all or nothing deal. But selecting all would cause the error.
    So I had read the other forum posts about the "&" symbol being the cause of the problem.  I went through iPhoto and made all of the changes. It did not work. I then looked at iTunes, using the AlbumData2.xml file listed in the other forums as a reference.  I found one album with the "&". I edited that one.  Still would not work.  So then I spent 3 hours on the phone with AppleCare last week. I talked with 4 different advisors. None of them had heard about the "&" error from the forums. We tried everything in iPhoto including repair and rebuild.  Finally we created a whole new library and reimported my master photos from my original one.  Using this option would allow me to now check off that radio button in iTunes.  BUT... I now lost all of my albums and events and would need to rebuid them.  I was not happy. They agreed and we set up time to talk this week.
    So today I talked with AppleCare again. They now have more info and said the problem has to do with iTunes and the new iPhoto 9.4. It does not like the "&" symbol anywhere in either iPhoto or iTunes. So they now have me going through everything in my iTunes library. Genre is OK but any other item cannot have " & ". I have several dozen to edit and will do it over the weekend and then restore my original iPhoto Library and see if I can finally get it all to sync. I will let you know how I make out, but apparently you need to eliminate " & " from every entry in iTunes and iPhoto.
    Quality control is not up to par with Apple these days. 

  • TS2776 After installing iTunes 11, we can no longer sync our iPhone and iPad devices with Outlook 2007 or 2010.  We are trying to install iTunes 10 to replace iTunes 11. Anyone have a fix for this?

    Since installing itunes 11, we can no longer sync to our Outlook 2007 and 2010 calendars (there may be other Outlook files included in this syncing problem). Using the iCloud is not an option as it does not support Vista OS.  We are trying to reinstall iTunes 10.7, however; that is not going particularly well, either. Does anyone have a proven solution for this mess?

    FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

  • How can i get all my music from my ipad into my itunes library so that i can download it to other ios devices?

    I have an iPad that is loaded with music that I actually burned the cd's into iTunes on a computer at work a couple of years ago.  I switched jobs some time ago so I no longer have access to that computer. Is there anyway to get that music into my iTunes library on my home computer so that I can download it onto my new iPad or other iOS devices?  Computer stuff is NOT my forte.

  • Sank my old click wheel iPod, bought an iPod Nano and am fumbling around like my grandfather programming a VCR to synch the Nano with iTunes.  Picked up iTunes Match due to push marketing, but I lack in iOS device save for the flipping nano.  Help!

    Sank the old iPod.  Bought a Nano.  Upgraded iTunes.  Can't find a way to synch the device.  Also picked up iTunes Match assuming it would work with this, but seem to believe I am hosed based on NOT having another iOS device and the Nano not supported by iTunes Match.
    For a guy who works in Technology and advises on strategic go-to-market issues, I feel like an 80 year old trying to program a blue ray player.
    Any phone or chat assistance available for me to accelerate this brute force fumble bum process?

    also, i think i have used the same email/password on both devices and thats whats mucked it all up. I didn't really understand how itunes worked before i jumped it...I don;t mind deleting all on my ipod if i can just get the nano set up with music and keep the games, audiobook purchased on it...any suggestions?

  • Since installing iTunes 11 i can no longer update any of my devices???

    Since installing iTunes 11 i am unable to transfer anything on to any of my devices, ie iPhone 5, ipad iPod iPhone 4, they all just say cannot be read or written too? Anyone having the same trouble?

    I had exactly the same issue.  The Devices under File were greyed out.  I went back to the previous version of Itunes by installing the backup of Time Machine. 

  • IPod no longer sees  ANY wireless networks

    Last week I noticed that my Touch would regularly lose its connection to the internet (the little wireless indicator would disappear and the only way to get it back on was to go into Settings > Wi-Fi Networks > "Choose a Network"). Then it started getting worse. I would follow the above process but would see NO networks. I would turn the Wi-Fi slider off, then on, and usually on the first or second try it would display networks. Somewhere in this process the iPod quit asking me if I wanted to join availabe networks in the app (the little pop-up of availabe networks quit appearing). Friday night a friend called to ask me for a phone number and I ran Safari, got online via the above, lengthy process and little did I know, but that'd be the last time my iPod would go online.
    Saturday morning I woke up to check my email via iPod and it said no networks available. Normally in my apartment I can see 3, one of which is mine. I manually entered my SSID and was informed that iPod was unable to connect. Then I walked over and rebooted the router, still no luck.
    The following also had no results:
    1. I "Reset network settings."
    2. I "Reset All Settings."
    3. Restore from backup via iTunes.
    4. Turning off "Fetch New Data"
    The following allowed me to see my home network exactly one time (but still didn't let me connect.)
    1. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
    2. Restore from back-up
    3. Settings > Wi-fi
    My network SSID appeared exactly one time, though neither of the neighbors wireless did. I clicked on the name, and got "unable to join..." at which point the SSID disappeared from the list. (which now only says, "Other..." and refuses to join my network when I enter the SSID and the iPod is SITTING ON THE ROUTER!")
    I'm now at work and the WPA network at work also doesn't show up. Normally from my desk I can see 3 networks.
    At home, I've got (at this point) an unencrypted, SSID-broadcast, non-MAC filtering network that works for 5 other machines in the house. According to apple my Serial Number is not worthy of free technical support so I'm appealing to the masses here with some hope that this is a simple procedure that I'm missing. If this is really a hardware failure of the iPod at 11 months there's some serious quality control issues!

    I've got this exact same issue which just started for me last night (running 2.0.1 software). I was unable to pick up my own home network or my neighbours which always shows up in my list. I reset the iPod touch but to no avail. I then did a factory restore on it today but that didn't fix the issue. I phoned Apple Support and within 5 minutes he was filling out a despatch note and arranging for a courier to come and pick it up within 3 working days for repair. Luckily I'm just within the 1 year warranty as I've had the iPod touch for 11 months. Hoping it can be fixed quickly.

  • Airport Utility no longer sees any of my four base stations... help?

    Hi all,
    I have four base stations, one extreme and three expresses. They have been working perfectly.
    I needed to reset (to default) one of the Express stations. Upon restarting the EXP, it appeared as expected in Airport Utility with default base station info. I configured the EXP to extend an existing wireless network, then the base station had to restart to accept the settings.
    The base station restarted and came up with a green light, but now Airport Utility cannot find any of the base stations. I have rescanned 20 times, quit and restarted Airport Utility, rebooted the computer, and still I come up with no base stations listed in AU.
    The interesting thing is that all four base stations are working perfectly (green lights) and I am connected to the internet wirelessly.
    Any thoughts as to how I can get Airport Utility to do its job?
    (And Yes, I rebooted all of the stations)
    Thanks in advance.
    Matt

    Maybe it's just Bonjour has stopped working.
    Try connecting with the default IP address <10.0.1.1> from Menu > File > Configure Other ...
    Note: Change <10.0.1.1> to what ever your default DHCP address is.
