ITunes doesn´t open automatically

Hi!!!
iTunes doen´t open automatically when i connect my iphone, the click is where it suppose to be (open while connecting) but nothing happens
Thanks!

This happened to me and what I found out from an Apple Store employee is that you should (make sure you have the "automatically sync" box checked in iTunes) then -
1). Open your system preferences.
2). Click on accounts
3). Select your account and click on login items - if you don't have "iTunesHelper" in the list you need to put it in there.
4). Go into your Application folder and scroll down to iTunes.
5). Do a control click on the iTunes icon and select "show package contents".
6). Double click the "contents" folder, then double click the "resources" folder.
7). Scroll down to the "iTunesHelper" and drag it and drop it into the login in window (what you looked at in number 3 above) and quit System Preferences.
8). Plug in your iphone.

    thanks

    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 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 open automatically like it's supposed to & other problems.

    I've followed every installation instruction. When I finally plug in the Nano into the USB drive, a little "ding" rings on my computer as if the computer knows something has been plugged in, but the little dialogue bubble doesn't come up saying that that ipod was recognized. Instead of iTunes opening up I get a window as if the computer recognizes the ipod as an external hard drive i.e. IPOD(E:). I have tried plugging in the ipod in every USB port, front and back of computer. All I get is that hard drive window and the ipod says "do not disconnect". I've even uninstalled and reinstalled several times. How do I get everthing to work properly. I don't think something is wrong with my nano because I installed everything and got it to work on my work computer. I want to use this at home! Please help!
    Dell Dimension 3000   Windows XP  

    the same has happened here. my family has 3 nanos. one works fine, the other, windows calls a hard drive and assigns it a letter, but the updater and itunes dont find it. theres the ding, and windows says its an ipod, but then calls it a removeable storage device and treats it like one. and the lastnano: windows says that the device has malfunctioned and it wont even charge it. ive reinstalled 20 some times and used the disk, the new updater, and new itunes, and it still wont even recognize mine as an ipod. please help!!

  • ITunes doesn't open when I connect my iPhone

    i upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. Since then every time I connect my iPhone, iTunes doesn't open automatically. And the phone restarts every time I connect to computer. Please help.

    One other thing to check. When you plug in your iPhone, open iTunes to sync it, and on the Summary Page for the iPhone, look near the bottom of it for the Options section. Put a check in the box that says: Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected. That should automatically open iTunes and start the syncing every time you connect it to the computer. Hope this does it for you.

  • ITunes no longer opens automatically

    iTunes no longer opens automatically when I connect any of my devices (iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPod Nano 5th Gen) to my 64-Bit Windows 7 PC.
    In each case the option to open iTunes when the device is connected has been checked in the iTunes Device Summary. However, I iTunes will only open manually.  Admittedly, this is not a big deal, but it makes me wonder why iTunes has stopped responding properly.

    First, try reinstalling the latest version of iTunes. If that doesn't work, try restarting AMDS:

  • 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.

  • ITunes doesn't open when launched or takes several minutes to open

    Just like the title says, iTunes doesn't open when I click the shortcut in the Start menu. It appears in the windows task manager under proccesses as 'iTunes.exe *32'. Sometimes it will open 10-15 minutes later. It worked just fine until a few weeks ago. I have tried running as Administrator, I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling multiple times. Not sure what else I can do. I need to use iTunes to synce my mom's iPhone 4S and my iPod touch 3 Generation. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    You said it was showing in the processes as
    iTunes.exe *32
    You have the wrong version

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.

  • HT1209 I've successfully imported the videos I've shot with my iphone5 into iphoto on my MacBookPro but they're only showing up as still shots, ie the imported videos don't play! Itunes no longer opens automatically when syncing!

    I've successfully imported the videos I've shot with my iphone5 into iphoto on my MacBookPro but they're only showing up as still shots, ie the imported videos don't play! Itunes no longer opens automatically when syncing, and when I open itunes it shows that there are zero "home movies" in there, meaning that it never grabbed the videos from my phone either. What to do? Thanks!

    tl:dr?
    Really?
    There was a short version expressly for people who weren't bothered to read a myriad of text.
    Meh, not that it matters anymore. I ended up redownloading 70-odd albums, so I have the bulk of my music back. And I still have no idea what iTunes did with my files, but I'll make sure it never does it again.
    I would thank you for the help but you were utterly useless. Oh well, carry on.

    If I uncheck the item in the following pic in Preferences that option changes to checked.
    Stilll iTunes refuses to open automatically since iOS 5 update.
