Itunes will not recognise my ipad2

only a few hours old, had an older version of itunes and the ipad showed up in that, updated itunes in order to update the ipad and now it just wont connect to itunes, absolutely typical if u ask me, i was expecting some sort of a problem with apple and i got it....
they just make everything so difficult and charge you a pile of money for the pleasure...so how am i supposed to update/sync my ipad now, my daughters worked fine as she had no older version of itunes on her pc, she downloaded the latest version and it just worked, i tried to update the ipad to ios5 and was told i had to update itunes first in order to do so, i had to use the 64 bit version and now itunes will not recognise my ipod or ipad, itunes is the only way we can transfer to our apple products and it is not working,, what a joke

if it was that easy to sort then i wouldnt be on here asking for help, its the new version of itunes that is the problem

  • Itunes will not recognise my ipad2 on my windows 8 computer, any ideas how to fix this?

    I cant seem to get Itunes to recognise my Ipad 2 on my new windows 8 computer, it works ok on my old computer so i know it must be a sofware issue. Ive tried many online solutions of which none have worked, im thinking i may need to visit the Genius bar...
    Any one have any solutions?
    Thanks

    Try Resetting the PRAM and SMC on the iMac.
    Instructions for your iMac will be on the Apple support site, some models differed in how to perform this.

  • I recently connected my new ipad to my itunes, but now itunes will not recognise my ipod classic, and 50gig of music has gone. ipad connects ok but no longer ipod which has been there for two years! help!!!

    I recently connected my new ipad to my itunes, but now itunes will not recognise my ipod classic, and 50gig of music has gone. ipad connects ok but no longer ipod which has been there for two years! help!!!

    What happens when the iPod is plugged in?  anything?  any errors?
    Why is 50GB of music gone?  All music should exist on the computer.  Only a fool would rely on a single device which could easily be lost or stolen to store their content on.

  • Itunes will not recognise music on my ipod?

    I have recently encoutnered a problem with my 5th generation 60gb ipod which I'm hoping someone can help me with?
    When I plug my ipod into my computer and open itunes, it recognises that the ipod is plugged in, but asks me to set-up the ipod, like it is the first time I have used this ipod. Also it does not recognise any of the 5,000 or so songs on the ipod.
    When my ipod is not plugged into my computer all 5,000 songs still appear on it and play with no problems.
    For some reason itunes will not recognise the songs on my ipod - even though I have added them all with this software and about a third of them on this computer.
    If I choose to proceed with the set-up of my ipod, I am afriad I will lose all 5,000 songs off my ipod.
    Can anyone offer a suggestion - as it is, I either wipe my ipod or concede that I can't add any more songs to it, even though it is only half full.
    Oh yeah, I have added all files to my ipod manually.
    Thanks!

    With those symptoms, it's probably worth checking to see if you're getting a Windows drive letter confusion. For troubleshooting advice on that, see the following document:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

  • My iphone screen has gone completely blank I have tried holding down both the sleep and home buttons and nothing has happened and I have tried to connect it to my laptop but itunes will not recognise, what can I do ?

    My iphone screen has gone completely blank I have tried holding down both the sleep and home buttons and nothing has happened and I have tried to connect it to my laptop but itunes will not recognise, what can I do ?

    have you tried charging the device ?
    if so and it still does not work you can try a Forced Recovery..
    by holding the HOME button down and plugging it into your computer at the same time..

  • HT201263 itunes will not recognise my encryption password even though it has been reset. cant restore to last backup?

    itunes will not recognise my encryption password even though it has been reset. cant restore to last backup?

    I'm not aware of a way to reset the password for an encrypted backup. If you have forgotten the password for an encrypted backup, your only alternative is to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it as a new device. Your data will be lost.

  • I have legally purchased and downloaded FLAC music files online, but iTunes will not recognise them.  What can I do?

    I have legally purchased and downloaded FLAC music files online, but iTunes will not recognise them.  I'm working on a PC. Can anybody help, please?

    Hi anniepat,
    FLAC files do not run on iTunes. See this article for how to convert your FLAC files to iTunes compatible format:

  • Had an update error now itunes will not recognise my phone and it is frozen

    I tried to update my iphone 3g tonight and it encountered an error. Now itunes will not recognise the phone and it is frozen on a screen telling me to connect it to itunes. I have turned it on and off and it remains stuck. I have restarted my computer and itunes and no change.

    Hey- just went through something similar - and I'm sorry I don't have the perfect answer... bc mine did what you are saying except my itunes did recognize that "an iphone" was connected and so it suggested that I do a recovery-mode restore on it and then I did a back up restore via itunes to get my most recent back up transferred to my iphone, and then it finally listed my phone as "xxx's iphone" in itunes.... here's the link I used: http://www.copytrans.net/blog/how-to-restore-iphone-after-updating-to-ios-7/  and I also used: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    I think what you are saying is that itunes doesn't even recognize that your iphone is plugged in - so you can't start the recovery process?  I DO know that in the hours of me muddling through the internet - googling this issue - that I did see other posts of those who plugged into itunes, and it didn't recognize their iphone, but they DID have suggestions on how to deal with the problem... while I don't have "the" solution, I wanted you to know I did see an answer out there - just skimmed past it as I was searching for mine... sorry I don't remember good luck!

  • Mac Book Pro/iTunes will not recognise content of freshly burned cd

    Hi
    So...my drive will recognise bought dvds and burned dvds. It will also recognise the content of shop bought cd. I can also burn cds and dvds. HOWEVER, it will not recognise cds burnt for me from other peoples (apple) machines. It simply says that the cd is blank. This is the same whether the cd is an mp3 cd, an audio cd or a datadisc. I have also tried to open the cd's in Quicktime and VLC but it still will not recognise.
    Can anyone help m with this one? Do I just need to get a lens cleaner and if so are lens cleaners that you insert into the machine safe to use ?

    So...
    It would appear that now:
    I cant burn dvds using toast or dvd studio pro.I can however play burnt dvds.
    I cant play burnt cd's using itunes or quicktime but I can burn cds using iTunes.
    Im so puzzled that any help would be brilliant.thank you.

  • Itunes will not recognise and load my library

    I know just enough about computers to be dangerous.  After years of relatively hassle free itunes I now have a distinct problem.  my most recent hard drive failure resulted in the purchase of another new drive and the loadingf of all of my programs.  This has happened numerous times in the past without upset but this time after inmstalling the latest v11.1 itunes it will not recognise and load my library.  I run 64 bit Win 7 an d to date I have:
              Uninstalled itunes and bonjour, deleted my original download, redownloaded and reinstalled.
              Checked preferences / advanced / path to make sure it is looking in the right place - changed paths and back again.
              Yes, it is 64 bit itunes.
              I only use MS Windows Defender and it has never blocked me before.
    In the past as soon as itunes has installed it has gobbled up my library but this time all I see is that stupid Mr Scruff et al.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    @CPL_STEELE: can you try to post these specifications in your own topic? (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=985161&tstart=0)
    It's not very nice to take over someone else this topic, because the topic starter (Ganieda) could have another problem than you. It's also very confusing for everyone who is trying to help because there are now 2 problems in the same topic.
    Never the less, feel free to follow this topic if you think it could be interesting for you problem.
