Itunes won't auto launch when iPhone 3gs is conncected

Hi there. My itunes on my MacBook Pro was working fine - it can sync and launch when my iPhones 3gs connected to it. But, it doesn't after I updated the iTunes to version 9.2.
It doesn't detect my iPhone or iPod when it's connect to my MacBook Pro. (despite of unlimited reinstalling my os x and reinstalling of my iTunes. It's only I did a proper uninstall my iTunes (following the apple's instruction), then it could detect my iPhone.
Now, it doesn't auto launch whenever I've connected my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. In iTunes' Preference, the option on 'Prevent iPods, iPhones, iPads from syncing automatically is "unchecked'. Why???

when your iPhone is connected, go to the summary tab. there should be this option

  • Windows 7 x64 - iTunes no longer auto launches when I connect iPhone

    Hi
    Ok so i installed Windows 7 x64 and iTunes x64 but now iTunes no longer auto-launches when I connect my iPhone. My PC has no problems finding my iPhone, it does the camera bit and if I start iTunes manually it syncs the iPhone with no issues.
    Does anyone know how I can get iTunes to auto launch again please?

    +it does the camera bit+

  • TS3159 Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?

    Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?  Please help!

    No, I haven't figured it out.  And no one from Apple has contacted me to help.  Very frustrating.  Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
    Do you have a 3GS too?  Maybe it's something with that phone??

  • Help, iTunes refuses to not auto launch when iPhone connected to computer

    Hi, anyone else have this obnoxious problem? I unchecked "auto syncing" and all of the possible disabling options in iTunes>Preferences. Another forum I visted mentioned disabling iTunes Helper. I am having a problem launching iTunes Helper because I did a search from the main Windows Start area (lower left of computer screen), and iTunes Helper does show up with a .exe extension showing it's an application. However, when I click on it, it just disappears. It's also not listed in "My Programs" or when I run "msconfig". Is finding iTunes Helper so I can disable it what I need here to keep iTunes from auto launching when the iPhone is connected, or is my solution in doing something else? I'm using iTunes 9.0.25 Any solid help here is much appreciated!

    I don't have an iPhone but I imagine it is probably similar to using an iPod. When I connect the iPod to the computer and it shows up in iTunes under devices, click on the device (iPhone), in the device screen that appears there is an options section that has a check-box "Open iTunes when this iPod is connected." Un-check it.

  • ITunes 9 doesn't launch when iPhone is connected

    As the subject says. Updated to iTunes 9, updated iPhone to 3.1. When iPhone gets connected iTunes doesn't launch automatically. I should add though, that my ipod shuffle when connected does auto launch iTunes.

    Apparently this is a bug in iTunes 9. Hopefully their will be an update shortly to fix this minor annoyance.

  • Newly downloaded movies from iTunes won't upload to my iPhone 3Gs, Newly downloaded movies from iTunes won't upload to my iPhone 3Gs

    I recently downloaded both "Planes" and "Cars 2" from iTunes (available via the digital downloads included with the blu-ray discs of each) and neither will upload onto my iPhone 3Gs. The phone has other movies on it (and has plenty of room for new ones), but for some reason it completely ignores these 2 movies and won't upload them.

    If you had a backup from before your old phone died, try using the backup (though if they are different models that probably won't work).  Also, under the "Music" tab for your phone, make sure your choices are set so that they aren't excluding those songs.  DRM might also be causing a problem.  Finally, make sure the songs will play in iTunes and that they haven't been lost or anything.  If you see an exclamation point by the song, it means iTunes can't find it.  You'll have to manually tell it where the song is.

  • Itunes won't automatically open when iphone 4 connected

    usually when i connect my iphone both iphoto and itunes would automatically open. now only iphoto opens. if i open itunes manually my phone is there and it syncs fine and so on. 'open itunes automatically' is selected as well. any ideas? thanks.

    Have you rebooted your computer?
    If that doesn't fix it, UNCHECK 'open itunes automatically', save preferences, then go back and check it again.

  • ITunes no longer launches when iPhone connected

    Hello all:
    My ITunes no longer launches automatically when I connect my IPhone.
    IPhoto does, but not ITunes. However, once I open it, it connects with my phone and syncs it without an issue.
    I just want it to auto-launch for syncing.
    I've read a few posts about this, but have not seen a clear answer yet.
    The following settings on my phone and laptop are correct (I think):
    --ITunes>iPhone>Summary>"Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" checked
    --ITunes>Preferences>Devices>"Disable automatic syncing for iPhone and iPods" is unchecked
    I noted in one previous post about this that someone mentioned the necessity of having "ITunes Helper" installed in your Login Items, in your Account prefs, in order to have ITunes auto-launch when the iPhone is connected. I do NOT have this app, nor can I find it anywhere on my computer.
    Is this the problem? If so, is ITunes Helper available somewhere?
    Hoping for an answer; I've noticed that a lot of posts on this subject have not gotten responses, and wondering why.

    Find iTunes in your applications folder. Right-click (control-click) on iTunes and select "Show package contents". Look in the "Resources folder" for iTunes helper. Drag it into your Accounts -> Login items list. Restart your Mac.

    thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess. 
    That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
    Either way your welcome and best of luck!

  • HT1338 Why won't itunes allow me to update my iphone 3gs to ios 5?

    Why won't itunes allow me to update my iphone 3gs to a later version?

    First, confirm that you really do have an iPhone 3GS and not a 3G:

    If you really do have a 3GS, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes, 10.7, on your computer.

  • Installed 4.9... now iTunes won't even launch

    Okay.... here it is: I downloaded and installed 4.9 and now when I click on the iTunes shortcut on my desktop, iTunes won't even launch. In addition, my laptop won't even shut down properly now. I get a bizarre error message and it hangs for 4 or 5 minutes (despite the fact that I try to End Program over and over again). I have had to take the battery out to shut it down because of all this. More important, I can't access my iTunes!
    thanks,
    P.

    Try using the "Clean' method for uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes. See Da Gohpa's link, toonz' link, as well as all the related links and activities provided below.
    You may first want to try a “Repair Install”:
    - Start menu -> Settings -> Control Panels -> Add or Remove Programs
    - Select iTunes, Select Change/Remove button, Select "Repair", Click OK.
    If that does not work, then read all the below and apply it to your situation:

    b Uninstalling iTunes will not erase your music files,
    or the two meta-data files iTunes uses to store your music info files (iTunes 4 Music Library.itl & iTunes Music Library.xml). However, it is
    i always
    a prudent idea to have backups of your music files on some external source (CD, DVD or External Hard Drive).
    b Prior to implementing the info in the links above,
    close ALL running programs. In addition, you
    b should
    i temporarily
    disable any TSR programs like firewalls, virus scanners, spy sweepers and the like. You will need to disable them both before uninstalling ANY software and/or before installing ANY software. Most of these TSR programs have System Tray Icons (usually located in the lower-right corner of your XP screen), that allow for an ‘exit’ or ‘quit’ or ‘shutdown’. Usually a single right-click on the icon will bring up a selection menu.
    These TSR programs can impede installation of some software or create conflicts later on during operation (or lack of operation) Some anecdotal reports suggest that iTunes 4.8 & 4.9 are affected. Based on the amount of success by folks here who have tried the Clean Install, this seems to be a good solution for a variety of iTunes operational ‘glitches’
    Please note that your TSR programs will all restart upon reboot. You will not be left unprotected. This also means that you need to remember to disable them when reinstalling iTunes after rebooting.
    b Also:
    You may still need to turn off the 'Fast User Switching' even if no one else is using the computer.
    ==>Start/Control Panel/User Accounts/Change the way users log on and off/ ==> remove the check mark from FUS.

  • My iTunes won't open. When I click on the icon nothing happens

    My iTunes won't open. When I click on the icon nothing happens. It doesn't bounce or anything. When i plug my iPhone into my macbook nothing happens either. I recently updated my operating system to the Yosemite. Everything worked fine until i updated it. Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions?

    Program folder? In general backing up and restoring application folders is not going to work. Windows programs should be installed using the appropriate installation programs.
