ITunes 11.1.5 doesn't open automatically when iPhone 5 connected

I have tried checking and unchecking "open iTunes when iPhone is connected" and that hasn't helped.

I’ve found another solution for those where this doesn’t resolve it.

You can extract iTunes Helper from the iTunes package, if you like, to replace the absent one.
It can be found by right-clicking the iTunes app and choosing 'Show Package Contents'; then navigate down to the 'MacOS' folder. You can then drag it to your open 'login items' window.

This solved the issue for me, where unchecking and re-checking didn’t.

  • ITunes 9.2.1 will not open automatically when iphone connected

    i have all the relevant boxes ticked, and have tried all the 'fixes' i.e unchecking autosync boxes and then re ticking them but with no success. i have even unistalled iTunes, and reinstalled it. I have to say when i reinstalled iTunes, when i connected my iphone (3GS Running Version 4.1) iTunes did open ok, but subsequently when i connect my phone, im back to my original situation????
    I have connected my daughters 2G iPhone running V3.13 and again this has no effect on iTunes.
    Strangely though i have connected my daughters iPod Nano and voila!!! iTunes opens automatically???
    Can anybody figure this one out please???

    Finally i have worked out why itunes didn't open when my iphone or ipod was connected. Ituneshelper.app (which is burried in the itunes app) was not running as a start up item.
    to fix this, if anybody else has this issue.......
    1. open up applications, and right click the itunes icon.
    2. select 'show package contents'
    3. open the contents folder
    4. open the resources folder
    5. scroll down until you find the ItunesHelper icon.
    6. Now open up your system preferences.
    7. select accounts
    8. select login items
    9. now drag the ItunesHelper icon into the login items screen
    10. This will now put the ituneshelper app into the startup items.
    To confirm the change restart your mac, and connect your iphone!!! Ehhhh voila!!!!
    Hope this helps as ive been looking for a solution for ages.

    Hey Alexander,
    Has iTunes Helper been removed from the login items? Go to System Preferences> Accounts> Login Items.
    You can add it again manually as described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1610692
    you can also get it back by downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes.

  • Itunes no longer opening automatically when iphone connected

    iTunes sees the iphone if I launch iTunesbut it no longer opens automatically.
    could it be a preferences file problem?

    Hmm if click the Apple >> system preferences >> users and groups >> login items, do you have itunes helper listed?
    You can also try this:
    Open in Image Capture in /Applications with your iphone connected.  In the lower left, you'll see "connecting this iphone opens with" (if you don't see it, click the triangle/box icon to show it).  Click the menu >> select "Other" and navigate to itunes and choose that.  Quit Image Capture.
    Test.

  • ITunes doesn't lauch automaticly when iPod connected

    Hi,
    iTunes doesn't launch automaticly when my I connect iPod touch 2nd gen.
    Sincerely.

    Here's what I did when iTunes started to not open automatically when I connect my iPod touch to the Universal Dock. With the iPod connected, I unchecked "Open iTunes automatically" and "Apply", then I checked "Open iTunes automatically" again. iTunes asked me if I wanted to install "iTunesHelper.app" and I clicked "Yes". No problems with any of my iPods since.
    Make sure iTunesHelper.app is active on launch in System Preferences > Accounts.

  • Since installing 10.5, Itunes will no longer open automatically when I connect my Iphone or insert a CD.  Nor will it, when I insert a CD, recognize the CD unless I close Itunes and open it again.  Any ideas?

  • Suddenly iTunes does not open automatically when I connect Ipod

    Hi,
    iTunes used to open automatically when I connect my Ipod but now it does not although I did not change anything to my system.
    In place of iTunes I now have the Windows 7 choice dialog in which iTunes does not appear.
    How come?

    Open iTunes when this iPod is connected: has always been checked
    I thought you said there was no such option above?
    and nothing else
    Okay. Head to the Start menu and choose the *Control Panel* and when it comes up choose *Hardware and Sound* from the list of options. Next choose *Change default settings for media or devices*. Scroll down to the bottom where you will find an entry for Apple iPod. Go ahead and change its action to "Take no Action." Any luck there?
    I'm not quite sure why iTunes isn't opening upon connection, but we'll see where we can take this. I would start with removing iTunes and re-installing again using these instructions.

  • IPhoto opens automatically when iPhone is connected

    iPhoto for Mac (Yosemite) opens automatically when iPhone (iOS 8) is connected. I have "no application" chosen in iPhoto preferences and Image Capture has no preference options in the menu. I can find nothing in System Preferences OS X 10 or in Setting iOS 8. Where do I turn off the automatic iPhoto start?

    This is most likely because it is  asking you to choose photos to sync to your computer. I don't know how to get rid of it though. Hope you find the answer!

  • Itunes doesn't open automatically when my iphone is connected anymore

    I have an iphone 4s and it used to open iphoto and itunes automatically when i plugged it in with a usb cord. now it doesn't do either. i got iphoto to open, but am still having issues with itunes. i have tried all the obvious: checking and unchecking the preferences and summary settings that indicate to automatically sync and open when connected. nothing is working. any suggestions

    In iTunes click on your phone under "Devices" on the left of the screen > "Summary" tab > Options: "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected".

  • ITunes doesn't launch automatically when iPhone is connected

    This used to work fine...I'd attached my iPhone 3GS to my MacBook via USB, iTunes would automatically launch and begin synching my iPhone. Then (I'm not exactly sure what happened...perhaps it was an update, or a spate of time when I was travelling and using a spotty wireless connection, I'm not sure), but for several weeks now, iTunes no longer autolaunches and synchs when I connect the iPhone.
    I did some tests:
    iTunes does autolaunch when I connect my iPod Classic.
    I can open iTunes manually, and iTunes sees my iPhone and syncs it automatically.
    When I connect my iPhone, iPhoto does come up automatically if I have photos to sync.
    The iPhone makes it's happy little connection sound when attached to the laptop via USB and still charges.
    Under iTunes Preferences, Devices, I still have "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from synching automatically" unchecked.
    So the only thing I can see that is not working here is autolaunch of iTunes via iPhone.
    I have iTunes 10.4(80)
    iPhone 4.3.5
    Mac OS 10.6.8
    Any ideas?

    plug your phone into iTunes, check the box to prevent syncing, unplug the phone, plug it back in, then uncheck the box again, then disconnect and shut down iTunes, plug in your phone and it should automatically open

  • ITunes doesn't launch automatically when iPhone is plugged in.

    It used to be, that when I plugged my iPhone into my Mac, iTunes launched automatically. It stopped doing that.
    If I launch iTunes myself the iPhone appears and everything works fine. I checked all the settings and asked the guy at the Genius Bar, but no joy. Anyone know what can cause this?
