Itunes main menu doesn't come up when I plug in ipad to computer. It is stuck on the music menu
i recently plugged in my old ipad into my pc in order to transfer info from my old ipad to my new ipad. the itunes menu is stuck in the music menu, I can not get to the main menu in order to do anything with my ipad. I ended up syncing the 2 ipads thru icloud, but still, I can't get out of the music menu of itunes.
That's the most current version, and rather what I suspected. Many people haven't yet figured out the new default interface in iTunes 11. To get to the iPad information so you can sync, click the iPad button in the header bar at the upper-right:
Or go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and the interface will then look substantially like it did in earlier versions. If you don't see the menus, go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":
Regards.

ITunes won't recognize my iPhone 5 when I plug it into my computer but it chargers
When I plug my iPhone 5 into my windows computer, it comes up as an iPhone camera and won't show up in iTunes. Can someone help me out? I want my music.
Hello,
On this Apple site, I am seeing alot of issues with Iphones not working and Imessage not working. If I were you, I would tell Apple Support to let them know whats happening.
Here is the link for Apple Support:
http://www.apple.com/ca/support/contact/
I would also try holding the Sleep (On/Off) button and the Home button for 10 seconds. Then let it restart.
Hope I helped! Good Luck. -
My device wont come up when i plug it into my computer
When i plug my 4S into my computer it doesnt conect with my itunes. How can i make itunes be able to read it?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I bought this phone on ebay and it's still in great condition, charged up quickly, and seems to be working fine except for this one thing. I factory reset it and plugged it into my Mac and nothing happened. No charging sound - nothing. I contacted the seller and she mentioned that maybe it isn't compatible with a higher version of itunes since the phone hasn't been updated? That doesn't seem right but I would hate to think that I just wasted my money. Could it possibly be an internal problem? Any help would be much appreciated seeing as I don't have an Apple store anywhere near me.
Yes, I have the current version of itunes. I charge my ipod and digital camera with the same USB ports and I've never had a problem with them. Woops, when I said 'computer' I was just referring to my Mac again. Sorry for the confusion. But yes. I even tried using my ipod cord with it to no avail.

I reset my ipod using the home and sleep buttons while my ipod was in the middle of installing ios6 it now will not respod to being connected to my computer and only presents a white screen. is there anything i can do?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -

Hi Gammer576775!
Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPod touch:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2771
Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

I cannot get itunes to update. I have version 10. When I either 'check for updates' or try and update thru the apple menu, it doesn't update. What should I do?
Hi gnaksung,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It seems like you're trying to update iTunes 10 on your Mac, but the update options are not working.
You may find the troubleshooting tips and download method in this article helpful with updating iTunes:

If you're currently using OS X 10.6.8, see this link for the iTunes 11.4 download, which is the latest version that can be installed:

I just downloaded 5.2 and both my Apple TV shows and movies won't come up. Hulu and Netflix works fine, but when I go to select a purchased move or show through the apple menu, spiral comes up for about 10 seconds and then brings me back to the main page

Thank you everyone for your suggestions and help. Ended up logging out of my apple ID account. Of note, when I did I did a quick test and checked out both the movies and tv show options, and it all worked perfectly. I then logged back in, and now all my purchased and rentals are available which makes sense. I guess with the update there was some weird bit of trons that required one to log out then back in. Probably doing a rest in between may not hurt for some. Thanks again for all the assistance. Cheers.
It looks like there is a Apple doc for this problem here -> Apple TV: Unable to access Movies, TV Shows, or other iTunes features after updating -
