Itunes won't install my iphone

I've tried to install the software on two on an iPad and Iphone, but it won't install and it freezes.  Then I can't complete the installation, nor does ITunes recognize the device anymore.

    You may have to remove & reinstall the AMDS, as described in that support article.

  • HT1338 i upgraded from leopard to snow leopard ( i know i am really behind) but now iTunes won't recognize my iPhone. and the updates keep crashing when they are trying to install...help!

    I upgraded from leopard to snow leopard. now iTunes won't recognize my iphone, and the upgrading the software keeps crashing.. help!!

    Mountain Lion is OS X 10.8
    10.6 was called Snow Leopard.
    To use iTunes 10.7 the following is required:
    Macintosh System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core processor and 512MB of RAM
    OS X version 10.6.8 or later
    Safari 4.0.3 or later
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    Do you use iTunes Match?
    That way all of your songs would be matched with the master song on the iTunes servers independently of iTunes on your Mac or PC...
    Look here for further information: http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

  • Itunes won't install update to recognize my iphone comes up with a error cannot find Itunes.msi

    my itunes won't instal the update errors saying cannot find itunes.msi

    Hi, kdub5.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you can not update iTunes due to a .msi error.  I would recommend uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components as outlined in the first article below.  For any component that gives you the .msi error, go through the steps in the second article below.  
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" alert appears when you remove Apple software in Windows
    Cheers,

  • Itunes won't regonize my iphone - running windows 8

    itunes won't recognize my iphone - running windows 8

    I found this under another post, it works(not stealing credit) just trying to help.  Re: Upgraded to iTunes 11.1 and now it won't recognize my iPhone Sep 18, 2013 2:15 PM (in response to davidsh_seattle) I was able to fix it!  iTunes can now see my iPhone5.    I followed these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538    And re-installed the "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver".    •     Right-click the Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod entry in Device Manager and choose Update Driver from the shortcut menu.  •     Click "Browse my computer for driver software."  •     Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer."  •     Click the Have Disk button. (If the Have Disk option is not present, choose a device category such as Mobile Phone or Storage Device if listed, and click next. The Have Disk button should then appear.)  •     In the "Install from Disk" dialog, click the Browse button.  •     Use this window to navigate to the following folder:  C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.  •     Double-click the "usbaapl" file. (This file will be called "usbaapl64" if you have a 64-bit version of Windows. If you don't see "usbaapl64" here, or if there is no Drivers folder, look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. instead).  •     Click OK in the "Install from Disk" dialog.  •     Click Next and finish the driver-installation steps. Open iTunes to verify that the device is recognized properly.   this worked to sync my iphone 5. not i4 or i3 phones(now ipods) In Device Manager I also noticed I had 3 apple drivers under Portable devices.  I deleted two of them. I updated the remaining driver, now I can sync my i5, i4 and i3.  You may have to View hidden devices.  Open device manager view-show hidden devices portable devices apple iphone "highlight" right click, update device if you have multiple apple iphone under portable devices, delete all but one.

  • ITunes won't recognize my iPhone 5

    iTunes won't recognize my iPhone 5. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and restoring my iPhone but nothing seems to work. I need help please!!

    Please follow these steps:
    1. Check if you have installed the latest version of iTunes. ( Go to help-->About, the latest version is 11.1.5 ).
    2. If you have the latest version, make sure the USB drivers for the USB ports are installed ( For Windows Systems  ).
    3. Make sure that the USB port is not damaged (  By trying any other USB device  ).
    4. If didn't work, try other iPhone 5 cable.

  • 2 things: iPhoto isn't automatically copying all my imported photos into an iPhoto album folder AND ever since i upgraded my MacBook 120GB to Snow Leopard, iTunes won't recognize my iPhone.

    So i have a 120GB MacBook that's about 4 years old (just updated to Snow Leopard--been working in Iraq, i'm a little behind).
    Never had a problem with it.
    I also have an iPhone 4 which i've had for about a year (up-to-date software as of about a month ago).
    Never had a problem with it.
    I've had iTunes for years of course (up-to-date).
    Never had a problem.
    1.
    Now my iTunes won't recognize my iPhone since the Snow Leopard update.
    iPhoto will recognize my phone, but iTunes won't.
    Went through all the preferrences and i can't find anything that isn't set properly.
    iTunes Helper is used during startup.
    Everything seems fine.
    Any help?
    2.
    I use a WD external hard drive to back my Mac up every week or so.
    I recently realized that half of my pictures from iPhoto are not copied to the external.
    They haven't been transfering over.
    So i snooped through my folders and as it turns out, iPhoto hasn't been copying the pictures i import from my iPhone to iPhoto and saving them as .jpg files in the pictures folder (or iPhoto album or whatever) like i think it's supposed to.
    My pictures folder has approx half of all my pictures in it, meaning at some point (probably 2 years ago) iPhoto stopped making the file copies of my imported pictures.
    I do not know why.
    No idea how to fix it.
    If i were able to fix that (with your help), would all the pictures that haven't been copied automatically copy to my pictures folder once i had the issue resolved or would there be a lot of dragging and dropping?
    I've been clumsily and sloppily copying all my pictures to a new folder on my desktop and manually transferring that folder to a thumb drive (which i keep in my pocket) and my external (just so i have them in some form) in case my computer crashes or a mortar shell lands on my room and blows my computer up.
    Can anyone please help me with any of this?
    I can't just stoll down to the Apple store to ask the Genius Bar (I'm in Baghdad) and i don't have Apple Care so no one will help me on the phone when i call Apple.
    Thanks so much.

    hey mill1640,
    Did you ever get your iPhone to register with iTunes? I just upgraded as well to Snow Leopard, and my my isn't recognized at all also.
    If you did get this resolved, I would appreciate a little suggestion in the right direction.
    Many thanks,
    Josh

  • Just upgraded macbook to Snow Leopard, and now itunes won't recognize my iphone.  I tried turning all off, and on.  I have the newest version of itunes.  Will I have to reset my iphone (and also ipod touch?), and if so, does it mean I lose anything?

    I just upgraded macbook to SnowLeopard 10.6.3 and now itunes won't recognize my iphone.  I tried turning everything off and restarting.  I have the latest version of itunes.  If I have to reset the phone (and ipod touch), what does that mean?  Will I lose anything? How long will it take?  thanks

    Start iTunes.  Make sure you really are running the version you think you are.  Sometimes people end up with two copies, different versions.

    You say you are running Snow Leopard 10.6.3.  That version will not run the latest iTunes which requires 10.6.8  If you need iTunes 10.7 you have to be running 10.6.8

    itunes won't install. I get a message stating "apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient priveleges to start system services. I had itunes on this laptop and an urgrade came. Now nothing. Windows7, 64 bit

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • ITunes won't install. PLEASE. HELP. URGENT.

    iTunes won't install. My PC got reformatted. Now, I can't install iTunes. I've been trying to install it for like 3 months now, then it still won't. I've tried to remove it completely, following the guidelines Apple has given. AND ALMOST EVERYTHING.
    Then the other day, I was really really happy that I got it installed, I removed AVG Anti-virus from the PC and turned off ThreatFire. I thought that was the end of my problem, then yesterday, when I opened iTunes it won't work again! So I tried to re-install it, following every guideline. Still, it won't install! In the installing process, around "Registering iTunes automation server", I ALWAYS get the message "Some of its required files are missing. Please re-install."
    I REALLY DO NEED YOUR HELP.

    Describe what happens when you try to open iTunes - do you see anything? If there is an error message give it in full.
    If there is no error message open the task manager (ctrl alt del) and look on the processes tab, do you see iTunes.exe there and does it stay there.
    Try opening Quicktime - does that work normally, iTunes cannot work if QUicktime doesn't. If it doesn't work, describe what happens and give any error message.
