Itunes wont connect with iphone!!

My iphone will not connect to itunes with an error that reads "AppleMobileDeviceHelper has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." This is real frustrating. To my knowledge I have only upgraded to 1.1 for the iphone but it was working after that?? Please help!!

In my case this error never occurred before upgrading from iTunes for Windows 7.5 to 7.6 (and from iPhone software 1.1.2 to 1.1.3).
A complete uninstall and reinstall of all software does absoluely nothing save to reinstall buggy software that was obviously shoved out the door inadequately tested to coincide with MacWorld.
The only solution is to force the phone into recovery mode and restore. After half an hour, you synch one time. Then you do it all over again.

  • Itunes wont connect with my iPod?

    My itunes program wont connect with my ipod. It will charge it sometimes but after a little bit of time, sometimes the ipod will say that charging is not supported with this accesory.  Also when the ipod does connect in itunes it says that an unknown error has occured when connecting to my iphone. But im connecting an ipod touch. So im really confused and thank you for any help.
    Oh and its a 4th gen ipod touch that is white if that helps. i got it back in november last year.

    I'm also having this problem but it seems only to have occurred once I introduced my iPad Mini to iTunes (this may have been coincidental of course!).  The cable I'm using is the one which came with my iPod Touch version 4.2.1 (bought on the 23rd of July 2010) and the cable still charges the iPod as it always has.  I don't have the luxury of being able to try logging in to iTunes on any other computer but I've tried absolutely everything that has been suggested in the support pages.  I really want to delete some of the music from this iPod but I think I need to be able to sync with iTunes to do so.  Is it just that my 3 year old iPod is just too old for the latest version of iTunes?
    Any suggestions would be most gratefully accepted.

    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than Network connectivity tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".
    When you get through to the final screen:

  • Itune wont open with iphone attached

    iTunes wont open when I attach my iPhone to the computer with the same USB ccable I have been using.  I can open iTunes then all works fine.  In iTunes the option to open iTunes when phone is attached is clicked on.
    Bob

    Check out this Apple document -> iTunes for Mac won't open automatically when connecting device.
    You'll have to disable the "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" option before you can choose to have iTunes open when the iPhone is connected.

  • Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????

    I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
    I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!
    Natalie

    I think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.

  • ITunes wont connect with my phone

    I have deleted and re downloaded iTunes multiple times but each time during the download process I get an error message saying "Your internet security setting is keeping one or more files from being downloaded." I press close and the download finishes and iTunes opens with all my music still there. I then plug in my iPhone 4s but I get a message saying "This phone can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes Installer to remove iTunes,then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." I have done this 6 or 7 times with the same result. Please help.

    Hello, tineevert1. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • Itunes not syncing with iphone & apple tv not seeing itunes

    Recently installed itunes 10.4, now itunes wont sync with iphone and apple TV 2 cannot see itunes on a wired network.  The error message says Apple Mobile Device has not started - confirmed that apple mobile device did start.  With upgraded itunes apple tv cannot see the itunes library on a wired or wireless network.
    Reinstalled itunes several times now, and nothing changes.  Using pc, windows vista, outlook 2007.
    Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?

    Sure it's selcted, it's just not being stored in my iPhone's iTunes library as its stored on my macbook's iTunes library. I've dragged it to where I want it and it still won't store. I havne't needed to connect them with a cable since late last year I think with the new iTunes and updates, and you shouldn't have to. But this is frustrating, I finally found a way to get Tool on iTunes and I can't get it stored on my iPhone.

  • I cant connect to my computer with my ipod and itunes wont connect to it either. also i have forgotten my ipod passcode

    i cant connect to my computer with my ipod and itunes wont connect to it either. also i have forgotten my ipod passcode

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    And if necessary

    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

  • Iphone wont connect to iTunes or computer wont connect to iPhone?

    Either my Iphone wont connect to itunes or my computer wont connect to iphone! My computer makes an unusual noise as I plug in a apple device, This wont let itunes pick up my devices. I have gone though all the proceedures online in which have failed. But when uninstalling Itunes, Apple mobile device was deleted in which then windows recognised my iphone and it started to charge which it did not do when I previously plugged it in. Just wondering if anyone has had similar problems and knows how to help?? Thanks

    I'd look at these options
    first,
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    It that fails,
    DFU mode[1] is a state that you can put your iPhone into where it can interface with iTunes but does not load the iPhone operating system or boot loader (this is what really differs DFU mode from recovery mode). DFU stands for Device Firmware Update.
    While connected to PC, running iTunes, hold down Home and Power( button on upper right edge) button for exactly 8 seconds. 
    Release the power button.  Restore message will appear in iTunes.  The device will be recognized by iTunes, but no display will appear on the device itself.  The lack of a display on the device will verify that it is in dfu mode.

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

    There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.
    Like the fact that you just called most of us stupid there
