ITunes 11.1 doesn't recognize my iPhone 4s with IOS 7 - phone is charging by iTunes doesn't see it. Any suggestions?

I upgraded my daughter's iMac to iTunes 11.1 and now it doesn't recognize her iPhone 4s. The phone will charge and DropBox see's it but iTunes doesn't. Any suggestions? I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the software so that doesn't work. Thanks for any help!

Hello jlgougeon,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
Note: If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.http://apple.com/itunes/download
Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Restart your Mac.
Best of luck,
Mario

I upgraded my iTunes to 10.7 on my MacBook Pro - after that iTunes doesn't recognize my iPhone 4S 6.0.1 (10A523) in the iTunes sidebar. Solutions?

(Both upgrades to the phone and lap-top were done based on Apples suggestion, so I find it strange it doesn't work automatically, which should be a basic reason for choosing Apples costly products!)

Try rebooting your computer.
You might also try downloading and installing iTunes 11 which came out today.

You've posted in the iTunes Match forum. You'll probably get better help posting in the Using iPhone forum. Or the appropriate iTunes forum.

After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more. And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should. On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much. I will post a note in the app store to let them know. I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine.
Starbucks app works as it should.
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

My iPhone 4 with iOS 6 is making me start to hate Apple. Any App and at any time I open and I can not view it or move for more than 2 minutes, they close themselves. During connections, it also gives this problem and the signal disappears after a few seconds back but often the person on the other end has hung up ... I can not stand it anymore, someone suggests something?
Besides these problems, there is the battery, which was bad got worse, she is not lasting more than 10 hours, even without using the phone.
Sometimes it even seems that the problem was solved, but my joy did not last long after I celebrate all the problems return, is incredible ...
thanks.
Sorry my bad Inglês.

Try a reset hold home/sleep buttons until Apple logo appears
If that does not improve try a restore

Itunes 11.1 on Mac 10.8.4 doesn't recognize my iphone 5 with iOS7

Since upgrade of iPhone 5 to iOS7, my iTunes doesn't recognize the iPhone 5 OR the iPad Mini on iOS7. I upgraded iTunes and it still doesn't recognize either device. Mac version is 10.8.4

Well, I figured it out myself. I read the comments/notices that the USB 2.0 has to be in working condition to use it, and I switched cables around, but ended up with them in the same place. I know they work; I've used them before. I have a charging case that uses a micro USB cable to charge, which USED TO be able to connect my iPhone 5 to the Mac. Since the iOS 7 upgrade, the Mac doesn't see it. I de-cased the phone, used the lightning cable and the Mac saw the device.

Sync problem iphone 4 with ios 4.3.4 and itunes 10.4 on snow leopard

After updating my iphone 4 to ios 4.3.4 and itunes to 10.4 syncing doesn't work any longer.
While syncing pictures I get a unknown error (-50) message and syncing stops.

Okay, I have a Mac Mini running Snow Leopard in which I just updated iTunes. My iTunes library is on an external hard drive. I updated my iPhone to 4.3.4 and the syncing is not working. I get an error that it cannot write to the iPhone then get an error regarding some of the photos. Here is what I have done -
I restored my iPhone
I removed all photos from the iPhone and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes
I unplugged the external from my mini and then it did a sync just find - course I wasn't syncing anything to it!
I plugged back in the external via Firewire which is what it was before and I get the errors.
Prior to the latest iTunes update everything was fine but of course I hadn't updated the iPhone yet - so I don't know which update is now causing the problem although I'm thinking it's the iTunes update..
Any thoughts? Beyond frustrated at this point.

Wifi sync not working on iPhone 5s with iOS 8.0.2

I have an iPhone 5s with iOS 8.0.2, and iTunes 12.0.1.26. Sync via wifi doesn't work (with one partial exception[1]). USB sync works fine, but when the phone isn't physically connected via a USB cable, iTunes doesn't know it exists. On the phone, in Settings/iTunes Wi-Fi Sync, "Sync Now" is disabled and it says "Sync will resume when '[my computer name]' is available". It's got the correct computer name.
In the online help, I find the following claim:
When the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes.
In my case, the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, and the iOS device does not appear in iTunes. I had a previous iPhone 5S which was able to sync via wifi to the same desktop computer on the same network. That one may have been iOS 7 (I can't check because it tried to learn to swim).
The checkbox in "Summary" is checked:
I tried unchecking it, applying, checking again, and applying again. I then restarted both iTunes and the phone.
[1] Partial Exception: I found an "answer" on here where you turn off three different random features on the iPhone, turn them back on, reboot the iPhone and the computer, and then WiFi sync does actually works -- exactly once. Now it's disabled again. All that fussing around was enormously more hassle than just finding a USB cable; if I wanted to spend half an hour performing 10-second tasks I'd have bought another Motorola product.
Is there a solution that works permanently, or do we just wait for a fix in a future OS revision?

On your iPhone 4S go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Click on Wi-Fi to both disable and enable it. If you are still unable to enable this setting it may be possible that the iOS7 update did not take properly.

ITunes doesn't recognize my iPhone 4s

iTunes doesn't recognize my iPhone 4s.
Whenever I plug my iPhone into my computer it starts to charge like normal but iTunes does not recognize it. I've tried all of the troubleshooting steps provided by Apple (Downloading the latest iTunes version, reinstalling iTunes, updating the software on my phone, restarting my computer, etc). I've also looked at various tutorials on different websites that showed other methods. Among these methods were going into the control panel Device Manager or the Services program and taking certain steps within said programs. It seems I have tried everything under the sun to get iTunes to recognize my iPhone and so far nothing has worked. I have no idea what to do which is why I've resorted to this. Anybody know what might be going on? I'm running Windows 7 64 bit on my computer with the latest iTunes installed as previously stated. I've also just installed iOS 5.1.1 on my iPhone and this has not changed anything. If anyone has any idea what is going on and would like to tell me how to fix it, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

If you've gone through this article and made sure the Apple Mobile device service is installed and running, you should look at the security software on your computer.
To make sure it isn't the security software, you can either follow the steps in the article below, or you could just uninstall it and test again. Then reinstall it again when you're done.

I just installed update version 11.1.4.62. Now Itunes doesn't recognize my iphone or ipad. My wife just installed the same version with the same result. The problem is clearly a problem with itunes. What's wrong with itunes?

I was running the previous version of itunes and it worked perfectly. I just installed the latest version of itunes (version 11.1.4.62) and restarted the PC and now itunes doesn't recognize my iphone or my ipad. I'm running Windows 8.1 on my pc. I tried diagnostics to no avail. The diagnostic didn't recognize either device. As the directions advised, I closed itunes, disconnected the devices and stopped and restarted the apple mobile device service, That didn't work either. My wife, who also has Windows 8.1, has the same problem. She installed the new version and it doesn't recognize her devices.
Until now, itunes has been totally reliable. I am convinced the problem is with itunes. Where do I go from here?

I resolved the issue by doing the following:
1. Uninstall iTunes and every Apple application (device support and such).
2. Uninstall bonjour.
3. Reboot.
4. Go to Apple and install iTunes.
It worked. When I opened iTunes (after reinstalling) it recognized all my devices, music and video.
