ITunes 11.1 Device Sidebar Frozen

I am having a weird issue. When I go to drag music onto my iPhone the devices sidebar slides out from the right as per usual but then doesn't disappear. Rather it gets frozen on the screen covering the right side of my iTunes. Any ideas how to resolve this? I have already re-installed which didn't help

I've noticed this happens only when I drag indvidual songs from an album onto the phone. If I drag the entire album, the sidebar slides back (even if it was previously "frozen").

ITunes 10.5-Device sidebar

I installed the latest iTunes 10.5 yesterday. Now there is no "device" option on the sidebar, so I can't connect and sync my Iphone 4.
Please, help me. David,

Although this is for a different version of Windows, it worked:

Since migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and upgrading to iTunes 11, the latter has frozen while syncing my devices, usually while at the “determining apps to sync” stage of the process. If I am attempting to download app updates before attempting to sync, the problem normally occurs at the first “installing app x” stage. In addition, the whole iTunes experience is extremely sluggish and will even freeze while searching for a track. Everything worked fine on Windows 7. So far, I have repaired the program several times and have checked for compatibility issues, but there is no Windows 8 option in the combo box, obtained after right-clicking the icon and selecting Properties/Compatibility. As a result, I am unable to sync my devices. If I uninstall iTunes before re-installing, will this affect my iTunes libraries? Does anyone have any suggestions?

After going by elimination to isolate if the problem was from (1) iTunes app, (2) my computer or (3) my old iPhone 4G, I figured out what my problem was.
1) First I deleted & reinstalled iTunes on my Windows PC without succes, my playlist did not changed on my iPhone.
2) I tested a successful #sync from the iMac at work.
So my conclusion is: The hard drive on my Windows PC is full and that is affecting iTunes SYNC functionalities.
So I'll do a back-up then run a "Clean Install" of my Windows OS, hoping that it will fix my SYNC problems.

Itunes and wireless devices no longer show up in upper right corner of itunes window

Help! My Internet service was interupted last week and when it returned my iTunes and wireless devices no longer show up in upper right corner of the iTunes window. I finally figured out how to get both of my wireless devices to show up on the left hand column under devices, but nothing else shows up now in the upper right corner! I cannot for the life of me figure this one out and the tech manual is not helping at all. Help!

If you have the left-hand sidebar showing then that is where the store and your devices will show can be selected - if you press option-command-S if you are using a Mac, control-S on a PC, then the sidebar should be hidden and the store and device should go back to the top right. Is that what you mean ?

My iphone 4 device is frozen

my iphone 4 device is frozen and it just shows the apple logo. ive tried to turn it on and off and that wont work. i also tried to hold the home button and the sleep button and it wont unfreeze either. what do i do now?

Try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

i have just loaded the latest update on my iphne now the phone is asking to connect to itunes and phone is locked, frozen and can't open up need help now desperatly

Same problem with the update, and iTunes can't find my device. I've spent the last two hours researching this and trying everyone's ideas to no avail. I hope someone comes through. Super frustrating :////

HT4061 Trying to get online support. They ask my device ID. Cannot get it because device is frozen. Now what?

I tried to upgrade the op system. Big mistake! Now iPad is frozen on the "accept terms and conditions" page, cannot agree nor disagree, it does not move it does not accept any commands. Totally frozen. I tried to contact on line support, they ask for the device serial number before I can proceed. I cannot get the device number because the device is frozen. Now what do I do? Please help!!

Skydiver119, thank you for your reply. I did find the serial number of my iPad. However pushing the reset button does nothing to restart the machine. I am stuck in a "iPad not set up" mode and cannot get out. I connected the iPad to my PC through iTunes, so far I have not found any way to reset the iPad. I can sync and copy, but that does nothing to reload the operating system. Any ideas?

When one or more family members who have been sharing one iTunes account wants to create their own iTunes account can they each upload the music/apps from the shared iTunes on their devices to the new iTunes account?

Yes. I would clarify your statement about the "shared" iTunes Library though. If you want each iOS device to have its own music library, you should create separate user accounts for them. Read:

If I download a song, album or playlist from iCloud to an iTunes Match enable device, can I delete the download at a later date if I need to free up memory on the device?

Can I use 1 computer with 2 different iTunes accounts and devices? We're afraid we're going to wipeout one library or the other if we do??

My son got an iPhone and wanted his own iTunes account. Now his computer died, and he wants to connect to his iTunes account on my computer. When it asks to sync the computer, a message comes up and we're afraid either his or my library are going to be wiped out by trying to do this. Is it possible to use 1 computer with 2 different iTunes accounts and devices without wiping out one of the libraries? Thanks for any info.

If the content was not originally purchased/synced to the device from your computer it will erase and replace the content from the device with that of the computer. If you have content that you want to backup you can transfer purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848 check this link out

I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts. All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window". But what if you have no device window?

Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
I thought the libraries were the same.

I see the "Connect to iTunes" screen and the device appears in iTunes. Every time I connect to iTunes, iTunes says my device is in recovery mode and has to be recovered so I do so. The same recovery message shows in iTunes after iTunes is complete. I have a iPod touch 64gb. I have no idea what OS is on it now that iTunes has tried to recover it and erased all info.
