Itunes wont recognize iphone 4s ios7!!!

i have a mac on 10.5.8 software. my itunes is 10.6.3 and my iphone 4s is ios7. i tried connecting to itunes but it says i need version 11.1. i tried downloading it but it says i need newer software and i checked for updated on my mac but it says theres no updated. i just ordered an iphone 5s not too long ago and is there anyway i can buy a disk or something for my mac to upgrade my software so i can get new itunes11.1 or do i need a newer mac (hope not) this one still runs perfect. if anyone can help i appreciate it!

You need to update your OSX to 10.6.8 or later to install iTunes 11.1.

    So i started having this same issue with my Powerbook G4 - setups a time with a Genius today and well after a reboot of the Mac and a reset of the iPhone everything was good BUT!!!!!!
    make sure in itunes you have in the Summary of your iPhone, under Options - the check box next to auto sync -
    The Genius asked do you use your computer to charge, NO then you really would only need it to sync, so there you go.
    works great now
    thanks

  • ITunes wont recognize iPhone 4

    Downloaded the new iTunes (12.0.1.26) and try to sync my new music with iTunes but my iPhone 4 (iOS 7) wont even come up in itunes! It comes up on my computer (windows 8) and i can browse photos etc through that route. I have tried running itunes diagnostics and no luck. This has only started to happen with the new itunes update. After plugging it into my laptop, my iphone says do you want to trust this computer and i click trust and it then disconnects the iPhone and reconnects it itself.

    Hi ..
    You may need to disable your anti virus software prior to clicking, "trust".

  • ITunes wont recognize iPhone 5

    Alright, I've had this problem for a while now, and I'm at my wit's end. Hope someone can help me.
    First of all, I'm running Windows 8.0 on a Lenovo, using iTunes 11.1.5, and an iPhone on iOS 7.0.6.
    Problem is, when I plug my iPhone 5 into my computer, the computer recognizes the iPhone, but for some reason, iTunes doesn't realize it's there. On top of that, every time I plug in, my phone gives me the same "Trust this computer?" prompt, like it doesnt recognize the computer I told it to trust 5 seconds ago. A couple times, I got lucky and iTunes dignified me with a "An iPhone has been detected, but could not be identified properly." prompt. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mobile device driver, updating everything, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, resetting my iphone settings, but nothing works. Any ideas?

    Having the exact same problem with my iPhone 4S.
    This started happening right after upgrading iTunes to 11.1.5 - never encountered this issue before.
    Tried doing the same thing you mentioned above with no luck at all.

  • Itunes wont recognize iphone 4s

    itunes will not recognize iphone 4s. I have gone through the trouble shootinging steps that Apple provides but will still not work. Any suggestions?

    If connecting in recovery mode did not work, did you try to connect to another computer, to make sure your phone has no hardware failure?

  • Itunes wont recognize iphones 4s

    I just got my iphone 4s through virgin mobile.  I have tried reinstalling itunes, updating my iphone, restarting it, restarting my computer and itunes still wont show my iphone.  I am not sure what else to do from here and not really getting any help from what I see on google.
    Thanks

    This problem is probably down to one of three problems.
    1) Have you tried using a different cable? I know that it seems unlikely that you have a faulty cable but that could be the problem - do try a different cable.
    2) Have you tried using a different USB port when pluggin in your iphone cable? Sometimes, for various reasons, a particular USB port gets hung up and just plugging a device into a different port can solve the problem.
    3) If (1) or (2) don't solve the problem then it might be that the Apple Mobile Device Driver is not installed on your computer. You can find the device driver (along with the suggestions to solve this problem) using this link - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US . Number 5, gives you links to the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
    Good luck with these and do report back.

  • Windows 8.1 itunes wont recognize iphone

    Go to your device Manager by: Going the search in your charm bar and typing in Device Manager.
    Expand Portable devices and or Universal Serial Bus controllers and look for your device.
    Right-click the Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod entry in Device Manager and chooseUpdate 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.
    If that doesnt work you can go click this link and follow the guide from apples website
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US

    go into the control panel (hover in the lower right corner to bring up the menu that leads you there)
    go to programs, add/remove programs
    uninstall iTunes, apple mobile device service, apple application support
    then go out and redownload and reinstall iTunes. Try again to sync
    There seems to be something where an iTunes update doesn't write over all the drivers. The only way to m ake it write the right drivers is to delete the old ones and force iTunes to start over.
    You won't lose any of your music.

  • Itunes wont recognize iphone 3G

    OK, I have tried every solution on Apple's website with no luck. I am at the end of my rope.
    I have 2 old iphone 3G's. I would like to use one of them as an ipod touch. The only problem is, when I plug either of them in, itunes freezes up for about 3 minutes and when it finally unfreezes, it doesnt display the iphone as a device. This happens with both iphone 3G's. I have an iphone4 also... when I plug it up, no problem, comes right up. The hangup only happens with the 3G.
    Now, thinking this might be an issue with the iphone 3G, I tried it at work on my work computer. Both phones come up right away, no problem. Both my work computer and home computer are running Windows 7 with the latest version of iTunes.
    The only thing I can figure is a software conflict, but I cant figure out what it is. I ran msconfig and disabled everything on startup, still the same problem. Ran the device connection toubleshooter in iTunes and it confirms I have a problem, but no solution fixes it.
    This thing has me stumped... Someone please HELP!

    3 days of persistence paid off. I found info on this website about how to update the driver for the iPhone and miraculously, it worked.
    Just do a search for it. Also, not sure if it's related, but when the window popped up asking me what I wanted to do when I connected the iPhone, I didn't answer and left it open. I just went straight to iTunes instead.
    Good luck.
