ITunes 11.1.4.62 can't find my iPhone 5
Whenever I plug in my iPhone, my computer detects my phone and it even starts charging. I have enabled the side bar and it doesn't show up under devices (at all) nor does it show up on the top right corner under the 'Search Library' form.
I've tried using different cables; all from Apple and each one fails to show my device on iTunes but still charges so it can't be the port on the device.
I've tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling to no avail.
I've ran the Device connectivity tests under the iTunes diagnotics and its passed all of them. So did the Device Sync test.
For what it's worth, I'm running windows 8.1.
Any suggestions?
That option has been removed with Mavericks. Syncing for calendars and contacts etc can only be done through iCloud:

I am trying to restore my daughters iPhone because she forgot her passcode. I'm stuck because iTunes is telling me to turn off Find my iPhone in iCloud settings but I can't do that because the phone is locked. HELP!

I'm switching from iPhone 3GS AT&T iOS 4.3 to new iPhone 5 Verizon. Apple online suggests iTunes 11.0.1 on MB OS 10.6.8 to backup contacts, etc. How do I know if backup really worked? I created a new contact on my iPhone and a different one in my calendar on the MB. Connected iPhone to the MB and synched/backedup. However, I can't find my iPhone contact in MB AddressBook and vice versa. Did the backup work? I cannot afford to lose my calendar, contacts, etc when I get my new iPhone 5. thanks!

i can't find my iPhone name when i right click to backup. but i see my backup folder in the mobile sync. how do i get that folder to go into itunes
"Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
They will only be where you put them If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country. You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located. -
I am trying to authorise a new computer. Apple's instructions are to select "Authorise this computer" from the itunes store menu. I can't find this in any menu. Can you please help? How do I authorise my computer?
Authorization and Deauthorization
Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us. -
HT201306 i downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...where did it go?
I downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...not in iTunes, not in iBooks...where did it go?
I had similar troubles on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7) with some audiobooks. Tried redownloading, reported problems, etc. nothing worked. Even more confusing, I could 'see' it in the On This IPhone in iTunes, but couldn't even see the audiobooks button in iTunes (on the phone).
I ended up searching for it by name, from my iPhone home screen (by swiping down, it may be called spotlight?), and where it reads 'Search this iPhone', I just started typing the name of the book, and there it was.
Not the most elegant solution, but so far all three of the books that I've bought are there. -
Where are my movies on my iPad...they are sync'd according to iTunes...I just can't find them!!! Help...I'm going on holiday in a few days and want to watch the movies I paid for and thought I downloaded!!! :-}
They should be in the Videos app :
If they aren't in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding them ? -
When I try to update my iPod touch to iOS4.3 I'm told to go to Devices in iTunes, then Summary. I can't find Summary.

I am trying to sync songs from itunes to my ipad and can't find my library on my ipad. Can you help?
Where are you looking on the iPad ? Your synced music (and that which you download from iTunes directly on the iPad) should go into the Music app

We have purchased a movie via Apple TV (2) and its taking too long to load, so we want to watch movie on Itunes on the computer but can't find rented movies on the MAC iTunes
Movies rented on Apple TV aren't transferable to another device. If its taking awhile to load then its an issue with your network.
What is your speed via speedtest.net
1080p requires 8mbps
720p needs 6mbps
You can change to SD in settings
Interference can cause issues, verify via istumbler or netstumbler
Should be using ISPs DNS (settings - network - DNS should be automatic) -
I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.
What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and is it connected to wifi ?
From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support :
Here’s what you need to stream the new iTunes Extras:
Mac using OS X Mavericks v10.9.3 or later and iTunes 11.3 or later
PC using iTunes 11.3 or later
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation or later) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later (You need to connect to Wi-Fi. Extras won't appear if you're connected to a cellular network.)
An active Internet connection
You can use the steps below on your Apple TV, Mac, PC, or iOS device for any purchased, HD movie that features Extras:
On your Apple TV, select Movies, then select your movie to see the Extras menu. Extras aren't available from the Computer tile on Apple TV (Home Sharing).
On your Mac or PC, open iTunes and go to the Movies section in your iTunes library. Double-click your movie. If there's no Internet connection, the Extras menu will be skipped. The movie will immediately play if you already downloaded it.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the Videos app, then tap your movie. If you're connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi, the Extras menu will appear. -
