ITunes can't see my IPad  Air

After i got my new Ipad Air, i wanted to get some songs on it. When trying to connect to itunes, it doesnt show up. Like itunes doesn't recognize it. I Think i tried everything from uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, connecting with another cable, reseting computer, reseting device... Any ideas what the problem could be? and any solutions?
Thanks in advance

  • Itunes can't see my phones backup file

    Hi, I had to do a reset and restore on my iPhone recently and when i came to restore the backup iTunes could not see the one for my phone that i made prior to the restore (even though it exists in the C:\Users\xx\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup file). iTunes can also see the ipad backup and the other backup from another iPhone that are in the folder but not mine. When it restored the phone it made a new backup file and datestamped the existing file. rightly or wrongly i moved the new post restore backup and removed the date stamp suffix of the original backup.

    I had exactly the same problem and couldn't find the answer anywhere. However after playing a bit I found out that my computer name (i.e. Right click on "Computer" and select properties) contained a hypen. I renamed the computer to delete the hypen, restarted and now it syncs wirelessly like a charm!
    Obviously something that apple overlooked which will probably right itself in the next release but should get you up and running fingers crossed!

  • How can I connect my Ipad Air to my PC to see the Ipad screen on the PC? I have connected them via the Ipad to a LIGHTNING DIGITAL AV ADAPTER-ZML connected to a APPLE HDMI TO HDMI CABLE (1.8 M)-ZML, and to the HDMI port on the PC. Thanks

    How can I connect my Ipad Air to my PC to see the Ipad screen on the PC?
    I have connected them via the Ipad to a LIGHTNING DIGITAL AV ADAPTER-ZML connected to a APPLE HDMI TO HDMI CABLE (1.8 M)-ZML, and to the HDMI port on the PC. But now I don't know how to show the Ipad screen on the PC, as if it was a monitor / screen, so that I can then use Lync and share my PC screen with people virtually.
    Thanks for any help! Regards

    Hi Rob - thanks so much for your help!  Could you tell me what "air sever or reflector apps." are? and where can I look for information about them?
    Do you use them on the Ipad or on the PC?
    Do I need a cable too and which one?
    Sorry... I am not very technical as you can see, thanks for your help.
    Regards

    Hello moamal,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that when you connect your iPad to your Windows computer, iTunes does not recognize that it has been connected. For this situation, I would recommend working through the troubleshooting steps outlined in the attached article to resolve this.

    Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
    However ....  I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
    Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try.

  • My itunes can't see my new ipad ..did everything what day said on the apple web and still nothing ..help

    my itunes can't see my new ipad ..did everything what day said on the apple web and still nothing ..help.....

    What is "everything"?
    First, be sure you are using the most recent version of iTunes.
    Use a different cable and USB port.
    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • I have connected my ipad to my computer and itunes can't see it.  iphoto sees it, but not itunes.  What can I do?

    I have connected my ipad to my computer and itunes can't see it.  iphoto sees it, but not itunes.  I want to sync - what can I do?

    You can redownlod iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For other music you will have to get it from where yo originally obtained it.

  • My laptop has crashed and I can't sync my iPad air. I have tried to back up off I cloud but it hasn't transferred all of my photos or music. Is there anyway I can access my iTunes account any other way?

    My laptop has crashed and I can't sync my iPad air. I have tried to back up off I cloud but it hasn't transferred all of my photos or music. Is there anyway I can access my iTunes account any other way?

    Your iTunes account won't include your non-iTunes purchased e.g. music copied from CDs etc, nor photos that were synced from a computer.
    To get non-iTunes music you will have to go via a computer. If you don't have that music on, for example, an external drive, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back from a device : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer then there are apps such as Simple Transfer which can copy them between devices and/or to a computer (though photos are 'optimised' as part of the syncing process, so if you do copy them back to a computer then they might not be the same as they were on your laptop).
    There is also this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • Itunes can't see my iphone

    Itunes can not see my iphone under the devices.  Recently used Windows Parallel on my Mac but made sure to de-select the USB in the parallels application and clicked associate this device with Mac OS and not the windows os.  I have tried un-installing iTunes, reinstalled with most recent edition.  Recycled the iphone on / off.  Removed the iphone from the docking cradle to direct connection with iphone to usb and no hubs, cradles etc.... in between iphone and computer without any success.  I know the mac and itunes are working correctly because it syncs my ipad, wife's iphone 3gs and kids ipod touch without any trouble.  I looked in the hardware listing in the system preferences and the usb lists my iphone as attached.  With the iphone 4 plugged in I rebooted my mac hoping it would auto open itunes and auto sync but no luck. 

    Hello Barbara4090,
    When the iPhone unmounts from iTunes during the backup phase, it can be due to some unreadable data on the iPhone that iTunes cannot deal with. It could be data saved by a third party APP on the iPhone, but there's no easy way to determine the what data may be causing the issue.
    First try resetting the iPhone by holding down the sleep/power button and home button until you see the Apple logo (ignore the "Slide to Power Off" prompt).
    Connect to iTunes and Sync to test.
    Next would be to determine whether the issue is actually with the iPhone or the MacBook Air.
    You mentioned that you also use an iMac.
    If the iMac is running at least 10.4.11 and has a current installation of iTunes 8.0.2 on it, you can use the iMac to isolate the source of the issue.
    If you have essentially the same information on both computers, you can do this test in the existing user on the iMac.
    If you'd prefer not to intermingle any data from the iPhone you can create a new User on the iMac and test:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3309
    Before connecting the iPhone to the iMac, put a check in the "Disable Automatic Syncing for iPods and iPhones" in the Devices section of iTunes Preferences.
    Connect the iPhone and then right-click or control-click on the iPhone under Devices and choose "Backup."
    If the iPhone cannot be backed up on the second computer, then it is due to some unusable data on the iPhone that cannot be backed up.
    After the test, you can delete the new User if you created one.
    If that is the case, then you may need to restore the iPhone and choose the option to restore from a previous backup at the end of the restore process:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    I would do this on the computer that you normally sync the iPhone with.
    If, on the other hand, the iMac can backup the iPhone successfully, then there is possibly an issue with the MacBook Air or it's software:

    Hope that helps,

  • TS3195 I am able to see my iphone 4 as a drive on my win8 pc, but am not able to see my ipad air. This allows me to copy files from my iphone to my pc. Why not?

    When I plug my iphone inot a USB port on my windows 8 computer, it apperars as a device and I am able to see and select photos co copy to my win8 pc.  When I connect my new ipad air, it does not appear.  Why not?

    Thanks again.
    I had photos taken with the ipad air on the ipad air.
    I followed the instructions in the link you gave, for Windows 8 PC
    Step 5 says to right click on the logo for my device.
    I could not find a logo for the ipad air and was unable to click on "improt pictures and videos", since there was no logo.
    Below are two screen captures.  The first is for my ipad air and the second is for my iphone.  It looks like my Windows 8 OS can see the iphones as a portable device, but cannot see the ipad air in the same way.
