Itunes could not detect in windows 8

Hi, I just bought a new laptop using windows 8. I install the latest version of itunes and i have updated my ipad to IOS7.02 but when i connect to itunes, it goes connected and disconnected as you can see that in itunes. It always shows "An Ipad has been detected but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the ipad, then try again " I have checked everything and restarting all the services like apple mobile device & bonjour and i am stuck what to do, please help if you encounter the same problem. I also try connecting my ipad and also happened on my iphone to my desktop which run on windows 7 and they all work fines. The problem i am guessing is it because this laptop does not have USB 2.0, all the USB port are version 3 ?
Thanks
I use Itunes diagnostic and these my Laptop configurations :

The links the support team provided do not solve the problem. On my computer there is nothing else running except Bonjour! It's running from both the "Program Files" and "Program Files (x86)" folders.
I solved the problem by deleting Bonjour. I would have tried deleting just one or the other of the two instances (I figured they were conflicting with each other), but when I went to uninstall it there was only one option and they both got deleted during the uninstall.
Now itunes seems to work properly, it does give a notification that certain aspects of the program wont work and "you have to uninstall and re-install itunes" to get Bonjour back. But, I don't mind because I only use it for podcasts so none of the broken features bother me and the notification when I open the program is just a single click to get rid of. So, if you do mind not being able to connect your ipod or things like that then this may not be your solution. But deleting Bonjour works for me.

I tried to restored my iPad1's iOS5 to factory setting. There are error messages. Now my iTunes could not detect my iPad anymore. How can I proceed from here?

Hi All,
I have problems with iOS5 installed on my iPad1.
After successfully installing the new iOS5, my iPad1 apps are jumbled up with my wife's apps. Some of my paid apps are missing.
So, i tried to restore to factory default. Now, my iTunes could not detect my iPad, and my iPad only shows the picture "to connect iPad to iTunes".
I restarted my iMac and checked that all softwares are up to date.
Please advise.
Many thanks.

If you restored from a backup, you simply restored the corrupt files again.
You could find the corrupt file through a slow process of eliminating apps and data - removing all content - and then syncing content back again - slowly adding apps back on - until the problem surfaces again - and the you could pin down the last apps or apps that you just added as being the problem apps/files. You may find the corrupt file - and you may not.
Your backups can be deleted by going to iTunes on you computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. You will see your backups/backups in that window. Click on the backup and then click on delete backup - if that is what you really want to do.

TS3716 My iPod hasn't been used in a very long time. It's an older model. It says disabled but every time I connect it; it says, "iTunes could not detect '____' Because it is locked with a passcode. Please enter the passcode and move on." And I cant enter

Please help.

you're most likely going to have to restore the device in recovery mode. this will erase content only on the ipod. but gain usage again :/
power off the ipod
disconnect it from the plug
while holding the home button(DO NOT LET GO!!!) connect to the chord and don't let go of the home button until you see an itunes icon.
itunes should say 'detects a device in recovery mode, you must restore' yada yada.
restore and then after your done you should be able to sync to itunes
good luck!

Windows 8 and itunes can not detect itouch

I have windows 8 and itunes will not detect my itouch? Any tips?

Chris CA, I am having the same problem. I actually just purchased a brand new laptop (w/ Windows 8 already installed) and had to download itunes latest version (ver. 11) and am having the same problems. As my itunes seems compatible with my Windows 8, my itouch device can not be recognized by itunes or in the "my computer" folder.
perhaps this more of a windows 8 issue and not an itunes issue?
PS, i have OS4 on my itouch, could this be a problem as well?
Thanks!

'iTunes could not run because it had detected a problem with your audio...

...configuration.'
I have just updated to the newest iTunes version from the latest version.
I have installed iTunes and when I click 'iTunes' to launch iTunes, it says this 'iTunes could not run because it had detected a problem with your audio configuration.'
I get the option to click 'OK' or 'Help'
When I click 'OK' the window closes and then nothing happens.
When I click 'Help' nothing happens.
Any advice??

It's probably QuickTime 7.3 that is the problem. Uninstall it and install version 7.2 instead. http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime72forwindows.html

I had a similar problem and your link helped me to solve the problem. Recently I changed my ethernet network card and since then my itunes worked strangely: itunes store worked, podcasts worked, mini-store doesn't, ipod update doesn't and diagnostics says that I had no Internet connection. Attached you can see the report.
It's weired that itunes is based in LAN Connections for sometinhgs and not for the others. Crazy!
Thanks and good luck with your problem.

IPod Touch, not detected in Windows or iTunes...

First of all, hello to everyone...
i want to say that i read a lot EVERYWHERE about my issue and still i couldnt find a solution...
the problem is easy, i have a 3rd gen ipod touch, OS 4.2.1 now fully working... but, it's not detected in windows or itunes, as simple as that, and as u all have read in lots of other posts...
my ipod is now working because i took it to an apple store and they charged it in a MAC and they had no problem at all. the MAC detected the ipod, with all its content and my ipod's name...
but when i took it home -this has been hapenning since maybe... 5 MONTHS!-, i plug it in my PC and nothing happens...
ok, first of all, my spec... win vista home premium 64 bits, last version of itunes...
i tried ALL the solutions provided in APPLE official support page, and nothing happens... that means:
1- completely uninstall itunes and then reinstalling it... i ALSO FORMATED my entire hard drive twice!!!!
2- tried all USB ports and even an entirely different PC and nothing happened
3- bought 3 different IPOD to USB cables and nothing happened
4- tried setting ipod to restore, that way itunes SOMETIMES detected the ipod but i coulnt restore because of different error codes, so i had to take it several times to apple store to "unblock" it...
the only way it works -detection and charge- is with MAC computers or dock systems such as an iHome my gf has thats the way im charging it now, but otherwise it wont work...
i would really appreciate any help, since idont know what else to do!!
thx in advance!!

HI I was having some other problems getting my itouch to restore because it was not being recognized in itunes and kept erroring out. Now it has finally restored after I updated all kinds of drivers and removed and reinstalled itunes and apple software a million times,(yes this is all after installing itunes 8.1 and paying for an itouch upgrade as well) Now itunes says it cannot do anything with the ipod because it is getting an invalid response from the device. So it won't put anything back on my itouch or even show that I have plugged it in. I emailed tech support, If I find anything out I'll let you know, will you do the same for me?

Airplay not detected in windows 7 itunes.

Airplay not detected on windows itunes even after windows update. Security & windows firewall not an issue. Please assist in re-installing the airplay option in my windows 7 itunes.

I, too, have the same problem. I have read multiple posts, but nothing works. It all began with an iTunes update. Airplay, my ATV, home sharing, and Apple Remote all worked. Now, everything that is dependent on iTunes does not work.
They are all on the same network. I have checked it and changed it multiple times. My ATV retrieves photos from my Win 7 HP computer fine, but iTunes might as well not exist. The ATV won't see iTunes through home sharing. None of my AirPlay devices are recognized by iTunes. There isn't even the icon. Remote doesn't recognize the iTunes library either.
I have reinstalled iTunes several times. Shut down and restarted everything several times. On two occasions, it all worked for a short time, so I know it can work. But I can't replicate that, no matter what I do.
I have disabled Norton security (and updated it). No difference. I shouldn't have to remove it since it all worked before the iTunes update. That's why I believe it is an iTunes issue. It once worked. Everything else works.
