I have the similar problem although ive updated my phone.
Updated to itunes 10.5 and iOS 5.0.1 on my iphone 4
Now I tunes wont recognize the device although the PC does let me pull the camera roll up.
Only way like you said is to reinstall itunes and but this takes to long because of the reboot needed.

  • ITunes 10.5 won't recognize iPhone or iPad (Win7)

    I've done a search and noticed many others with this issue but none of the resolutions have worked for me.
    My iPhone 4 and iPad are not recognized by iTunes, but my iPod is.  I've uninstalled iTunes, deleted folders and registration entries, then reinstalled.  Still nothing.  Everything was fine before iTunes updated to 10.5.  Windows sees the devices when they are plugged in, iTunes does not.
    Help?!?!

    Here's what I've found that works after struggling with my computer and itunes not recognizing my phone for a week
    if you have windows go tohttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Search.aspx?l=en- us&s=apple&page=2&type=Hardware and download the Apple Iphone 4 hardware.
    then, if it doesn't automatically take you here, go tohttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL926
    and download that.
    Let me know if it works for you.

  • Itunes 11.1 won't recognize Iphone 4

    . Update to 11.1 and my iphone 4 and iPad to new OS7. Both synced fine to itunes then update to 7.0.2 on iPhone try to get back on computer to sync and phone and ipad wouldn't show up in itunes. Kept gettinga message of do you trust this computer or some nonsense. Of course pressed trust this computer and nothing happened. Checked USB cord, restart itunes and computer and nothing. My Mac was picking up my phone bc iPhoto popped up but itunes didn't. If someone could please help me that would be great and save me a 4 hr car drive to the apple store.

    Hy there,
    In order for you to solve this problem you have to follow these stept if your running windows:
    1'st step is to go into the device manager
    2 step is to go to portable devices (it is rught under network adapters)
    3 step is to right clic apple iphone and click update drivers
    4 step is to brows your drivers from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    After that your itunes will pump up alown and youl see your iphone right there.
    Good luck and sry for my bad righting.

  • ITunes on Mac won't recognize iPhone 3GS

    I got the new 3GS to upgrade for the original iPhone. first sync worked perfect. Next couple did too. Now all of a sudden it's not recognized. I completely uninstalled itunes using apple's instructions and reinstalled. Nothing. I reset the phone using a windowz machine. (Windowz does see it when plugged in) Nothing. Just plugged in the orig iphone and it sees that one but not the 3GS.
    If I put it into DFU mode itunes sees it but if I try to restore it iTunes says the required software can't be found. WHAT THE HECK? This is so annoying!
    Leopard 5.2
    iTunes 8.2
    iPhone 3GS/3.0
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    So I may have come up with a hint. I'm running 10.5.2 and I installed an older version of xcode and iphone SDK. I think that's when my problems started. I've uninstalled xcode/sdk and completely uninstalled iTunes (including library files apple recommends) and reinstalled itunes. then i tried reinstalling quicktime just in case. still now luck.

    I know it can be frustrating when your iPhone is not recognized in iTunes. There are some good troubleshooting steps however to help you get this resolved. The steps may be different depending if you are using an Apple computer or a Windows computer so I will include both articles.

  • My iphone 5 is stuck on a screen displaying the itunes symbol and a charging cable. I tried connecting it to itunes and it won't recognize it or anything. what can i do?

    my iphone 5 is stuck on a screen displaying the itunes symbol and a charging cable. I tried connecting it to itunes and it won't recognize it or anything. what can i do?

    Turn it off by holding home+ power button untill the screen goes black ( as soon as it goes black, release the buttons).. This might take some practice , so dont worry if on the first try your phone reboots and goes to itunes screen again.
    Now, with your phone powered off, enter DFU mode:
    Method 1)
    Attach the phone to the pc
    Turn the phone off
    Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
    Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
    Whilist in dfu mode, itunes will recognize the device and it will ask you if you wish to restore it. Simply click restore, and the restoring proces will begin.
    This will hopefully fix your iphone.
    Cheers

  • TS3540 iTunes and iPhoto won't recognize my iPhone when plugged into my mac.

    iTunes and iPhoto won't recognize my iPhone 4S, or my wife's iPhone 4 when pluged into my MAC.  I am running OSX v10.5.8, and both iPhones have the latest version of iOS.  I tried a few of the other trouble shooting tips from the community, but nothing seems to work.
    Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    I tried that and iTunes and iPhoto still won't recognize the device.  Any other suggestions?

  • Windows 7 and itunes 10.4 will not recognize iphone 4

    windows 7 and itunes 10.4 will not recognize iphone 4.  iphone does not show up in device list in iTunes

    Found my answer by sifting through all itunes questions.  (I tried earlier, but apparently chose the wrong key words.  In my successful search I just searched through everything itunes related.) There was a posting where someone indicated they could not open alternative libraries using the option key method, precisely my situation.  They stated that they solved the problem by appending a ".itl" at the end of the library file.  I tried this myself and sure enough, it worked.  Hopefully it will also work for all others who are suffering from this scenario.

  • ITunes & iPhoto suddenly won't recognize my iPhone 4S

    I've made some purchases recently both in and out of iTunes, so I decided I wanted to download them to my phone this morning. I plugged in my iPhone 4S (v7.1.2) and opened iTunes (v11.3), but iTunes wouldn't recognize the phone, even after I rebooted the phone, checked the cable, rebooted and reinstalled iTunes, etc.
    My phone is charging, so my MacBook (which is running Mavericks OS 10.9.4) is definitely connecting to it.
    But when I tried iPhoto, it won't recognize my phone, either. I rechecked the cable. It seems to be fine. I even tried a new cable. No dice.
    What's going on? Anyone else experience this? It's the first time since I first starting using iPhones in 2008 that I've ever had this kind of problem.
    Thanks in advance!

    What do you mean OS X won't allow you to uninstall iTunes?
    Very rarely is needing to uninstall iTunes on a Mac before reinstalling required as is required with the spagetti code involved with Windoze.

  • ITunes 8 won't recognize iPhone

    I'm experiencing this issue on 2 separate computers.
    When I was prompted to install iTunes 8, I downloaded and installed. During the installation, an error box popped up saying that the iPod service wouldn't be installed. Of course, once installed, the iPhone is no longer recognized by iTunes, although it's picked up fine by Windows as a "camera". Wanting to transfer my latest podcasts to my iPhone, I installed iTunes 8 it to my work computer (Win XP instead of Vista I run at home) and had the same issue.
    It says that the iPod service is running, but iTunes won't recognize it. And of course, iTunes won't let me roll back to an older version. I've been searching for a resolution to this issue. I've tried uninstalling / reinstalling, and no luck. I've found other mentions of this issue, but there never seems to be a resolution for it.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm having the same problem with an iPod touch 32gb. If you go into "Diagnostics" under "help" on the itunes menu bar, and run the "ipod connection test" or something like that, it'll show "failed" and have a "help" button next to it. This takes you to a web page that lists various steps in solving the problem, beginning with reinstalling iTunes 8. It then recommends several other steps including deleting all iTunes files and shutting down all windows services through "msconfig". The final step recommends wiping your drive and reinstalling Windows then reinstalling iTunes 8. I've tried all but the final step to no avail, but I'm guessing since you tried it with a fresh windows install that it may not even work. I'm hoping there is a resolution for this soon. I still have iTunes 7.7 on my laptop, so I'm considering migrating all my stuff to that until there's a fix. I know it's an iTunes 8 issue, because I synced my iPod +right before+ installing it, just fine. iTunes 8 has never recognized my iPod. Apple has left me with the choice of of re-installing Windows (and subsequently, everything else on my computer) or wiping all traces of iTunes 8 (including music libraries) and rebuilding my entire music collection from scratch, including playlists. Awesome. Just fix the stupid program?

  • Updated 2.2.1 - Now iTunes won't recognize iPhone (and iPhone won't work)

    I had this happen last time I did an update too, but that was fixed by going into my control panel and starting my apple mobile device - I checked and this time all is running. I can't use my iPhone and iTunes won't show it's connected even though it is (so can't restore, etc. since it won't recognize the device). I've tried closing out of iTunes and re-connecting the phone - nothing. I'm on PC using 2003 Microsoft software.
    Thanks for any insight.

    Sorry, gave the wrong PC info. I'm on XP Professional, version 2002, service pack 3.
    Please help!

  • Itunes won't recognize Iphone but device still charges

    Today, I had my Iphone 5c replaced after having issues with the software on my previous iphone 5c. I'm trying to put the data that was on my previous phone back onto my new replacement but Itunes won't recognize my device. I have tried getting the data back on my phone using Icloud but the backup data that is for my Iphone can't be selected as the backup data requires software that is ios 7.1 or later (or something like that). I have selected the option of "set up as new iphone" and just downloaded the software update but I don't know how to get back to the screen that shows the icloud backups.
    I have also tried all the recommended things for when the device cannot be detected with itunes (ex. reinstalling itunes, restarting apple mobile device support< ect.)
    If you can help with how I can get my itunes to recognize my iphone or how i can set up with icloud after selecting "set up as new iphone" that would be great

    Set the phone up as a new phone. Then update the iOS to 7.1. After the update is complete restore your phone from your backup.

  • Itunes won't recognize iphone 3gs after upgrade to IOS 5

    Backup for Iphone on itunes was made on DELL INSPIRON MINI 10 laptop running XP Professional, Thursday evening 10-13-2011.
    Upgraded Itunes to new system (ios 5) Friday evening 10-14-2011.
    Connected Iphone to laptop Saturday afternoon to sync and upgrade phone to ios 5. after 2 hours phone was wiped clear, and itunes dropped recognition icon from list. several attempts were made to re-sync. all failed, itunes would not recognize. ended up restarting phone and installing upgrade on another computer. Laptop still failed to recognize.
    attempted upgrade to Ipod and it locked up on "Disconnect before removing'. opened Itunes dropdown and selected 'Diagose devise' and was able to restore ipod and sync with itunes. afraid to attempt 'diagnose' with iphone, now that it is working.
    back-up for iphone still appears on itunes,,,, just can't back it up...XP is unable to 'ICloud' and my DELL Window Vista Home Premium won't install updates so ICloud won't load....

    Help please - my computer does not recognize iPhone after upgrading to IOS4 and iTunes 9.2 ---- I have WIndows 7 --- have tried EVERYTHING and still it does not work. I want to do my albums via the computer, not iTunes since it adds the Photo Library folder, which is a duplicate of all my picture folders.
    Does anyone have a real solution please? I have uninstalled, installed, deleted drivers, installed drivers - the computer says the drivers are working, but obviously not.
    When is Apple going to post the solution so that people will know what to do - seems everyone has an idea, but none are working for me and the extra photo folder frankly drivers me crazy ---- something about iPod cache ----- do not want duplicate pictures.
    And, will albums be able to be edited - can these pics not be sent to Facebook.
    I know, several topics ----- what a mess Apple has created with IOS4 and iTunes 9.2. Ready to send the phone back!
