Itunes will no longer see my phone when plugged in... worked fine before update.  any clues?

I have tried unplugging, rebooting, etc.  anyone have any ideas??

Howdy there On The Road,
It sounds like your iTunes is becoming unresponsive when you plug in either your iPhone or iPad. A number of things can cause the issue, and I have a great troubleshooting article for you to use:

  • Itunes will no longer recognize my phone

    I just bought the iPhone 5c. When I plugged it in to my old itunes it synced all of my old music. I wanted to start fresh so i made an icloud account and deleted all of those songs. I then signed on with my new account. After this, itunes will no longer display my phone as a device. I tried everything from reinstalling itunes to checking the Apple Mobile Device services and still nothing. Can someone please tell me what I did wrong so I can get some music?!

    1-reinstall itunes(to last version)
    2-reset all setting from settings(on iPhone)
    3-change port of usb to your Computer
    was it helpful?

  • Itunes will no longer see/open either of my iphones

    iTunes will no longer see, and therefore open, either of my iPhones
    both 3GS
    one version 4.3.5 (8L1)
    one version 5.1 (9B176)
    the computer is Win OS7
    carrier is AT&T
    itunes stopped working so I updated it.  iTunes now works but it will nolonger see either iPhone.
    Windows reports the Apple driver is correct.

  • TS3581 I recently updated my Iphone 5 to the latest software.  Now when I connect to my car audio with the hotwire USB it will not display or play my music.  It worked fine before the update.  Is there a setting I don't know about with the new software?

    I Updated my Iphone 5 and now it will not play or display in my car.  I use the apple hotwire to USB to charge and play music in my car.  It worked before the update.  Is there a setting in the new software that needs adjusting ?

    I have a similar problem.  Prior to the 7.0.3 update my iPod touch worked properly and I could see the music folders, playlists and music lists.  However, after the update it no longer works - I cannot see the playlists, the names are blank.
    I do not believe your response properly answers the issue at hand.  If the iPod worked properly before the update then it should work properly afterward. With the response and link above it appears it is Apple's stance that it is the radio manufacturer to make the radio work with every update.  That is backwards and, in my opinion, irresponsible.
    It should be Apples responsibility to make sure that the functionality of the device is the same both before and after an update.  If they cannot do that then they should make it easy for the user to downgrade or uninstall the update to regain the previous functionality, at least until Apple can resolve the issue their update created.

  • My I cloud calendar in Outlook on my PC will no longer sync with the cloud. It worked fine until yesterday. Contacts and email still sync just fine. Any ideas?

    And I'm not referring to the default Outlook calendar, I'm referring to the I Cloud calendar in MS Outlook which was installed when I first connected Outlook to the Cloud. And it's worked fine all this time, suddenly it won't add items that I've added on my IOS devices or Mac and it won't upload items to the Cloud that I enter in Outlook on the PC. It sure would be nice if Microsoft or Apple or both would get this working properly. I see how many others have problems too, but not quite the same as mine.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    In addtition, I use 2 other PC's with Outlook and they are configured to connect to the Cloud also, yet on both the I cloud calendars in Outlook only contain about half of my calendar entries. ???
    Help again, please.

  • TS3274 The sound works except when trying to watch television. IPad updated yesterday. Sound for TV worked fine before update. Could it be the update that has caused this glitch?

    My iPad updated yesterday. Before it updated, the sound worked fine when watching aTV app. Now the sound works on all apps except the TV (e.g. ESPN) and then there's no sound. Could the update have caused this or what may have cause this? Any ideas?

    Also check the following:

    i cannot open images or pdfs despite bridge being open...usually i double click in both bridge
    or directly on desk top and they open, but suddenly nothing happens when i click on them...
    it works when going throuth file - open - etc but takes forever...tried to reinstall cs but i cannot even upen the symbol when clicking...
    whats wrong....?

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • I installed the current iTunes 10.3.1.55 and now my iPhone isn't recognized on my Windows XP PC.  Worked fine before updating iTunes.

    I installed the new iTunes software update this afternoon and now I can't get my Windows XP to recognize my iPhone 3Gs.  It worked fined up until installing today's iTunes update.  Anyone else have this issue??

    iTunes 10.3.1.55 and previous verisons were freezing up at random times when I would try to connect my phone or while adding music or applications to it.  I took the advice posted and restarted the AMDS.  So far, that seems to have fixed my problem. 
    THANKS!!!

  • Upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 on my IPhone 4 and now IMessage isn't working when it was working fine before the update...thanks a bunch Apple.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    Yes iMessage was barely working before (resetting network settings is what got it sort of working), but after 7.0.3, it's more broken than ever. I can't send ANY texts to iMessage users, even if iMessage is shut off. I tried resetting, I also tried resetting network settings again, but nothing has helped. It won't let me activate it.
    FindMyFriends keeps giving me a prompt to connect to iTunes. And no matter how many time i click OK, it just keeps popping up. I have to try to click my way out of it faster than the prompt appears, or i just get stuck in an endless loop. And with how slow iOS 7 is on an iPhone 4, it's a bit if a challenge.
    This is the first time I'm actually ready to start looking at other phones, these problem have been BEYOND frustrating.

  • ITunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone

    I keep getting the following message when syncing my phone: iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone.  I just recently updated my iPhone 5s to the latest iOS version and iTunes is the latest version as well. Has anyone else had the same problem?

    Problem seems to be resolved.  Photos are now syncing.

  • Itunes will no longer work on my Windows 8 PC. When I attempt to start the program a message says: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

    Itunes will no longer work on my Windows 8 PC. When I attempt to start the program a message says: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.  I have tried to uninstall iTunes but the Windows uninstaller will not delete the program I get a message that says: A network error occurred while attempting to read file: C:\Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi.  How do I get iTunes to work again?

    Whentrying to uninstall iTunes (the first program that must be uninstalled per the instructions) I get a message:  A network error occurred while attempting to read file: C:\Windows|Installer|iTunes.msi. I can't even uninstall iTunes?
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page).
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
    After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
    Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
    When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
    (2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Since installing 10.5, Itunes will no longer open automatically when I connect my Iphone or insert a CD.  Nor will it, when I insert a CD, recognize the CD unless I close Itunes and open it again.  Any ideas?

  • Music I have on iTunes on  comp wont sync to iphone plus music I bought through phone will no longer play on phone after I synced to my comp.

    Just bought music on iTunes from phone and then synced to iTunes on my computer and now the music I bought through the phone will not play but still remains in my music library. Also music that I had in my library from ripped CDs and other resources will no longer play on phone but will on the computer. How can I fix this problem?

    In my Sync vehicle, I had to "forget" the SYnc connection in the iPhone Bluetooth settings, then go into the car menu and delete the bluetooth device from the vehicle's system. Once I re-paired from scratch, it has been working fine. Give that a try. If not, try removing the connection from both sides again, then Reset Network Settings from the General Settings before re-pairing.
