Itunes wont reconise my iphone!!!

I just installed Leopard a couple of days ago, and also upgraded itunes to 7.7.1 and ever since itunes wont recognize my iphone or ipods. When i plug my phone in it charges and iphoto pops up, but thats it itunes refuses to show any device. Has this happened to anyone else? would downgrading itunes work?

hi Shiftyraz,
I was having the same problem, however, i just re-installed itunes and everything appears to be working. All I did was drag the itunes.app to the trash and re-install.

Hey there Palmer
How are you?
Well, I have an iPod Classic, it gave me the error -1436 error and would not restore on iTunes.
I did the following:
My Boss (@work) has a fairly old iBook but it has OS-X, so I decided to give it a try and connected my iPod to it.
The system showed a window telling me that the disk is not MAC formated and needs to be validated prior further action. Snce it is a Mac product, I thought "yeah, go ahead".
It then opens the disk manager utility for the Mac and showed the disk. It's window has some tabs, one is to verify the disk, so I verified it. Guess what, it had some invalid clusters.
Then I formatted the iPod to OS-X Plus file system (next tab to the right). After formating the iPod, I "ejected" the iPod and reconnected to my PC. The Windows iTunes found an iPod with Mac file system and asked me to restore it. As I clicked on the "restore" button, I crossed my fingers as this was the last resource I have.
Finally, after the file extraction was done, it began to restore the iPod!!
I'm so happy about being able to restore the iPod that I decided to share with all you guys this solution as it is the most usefull, in my opinion.
Hope you can find someone with an iBook or a desktop Mac, so you can fix yours.
If it works for you, make sure to share the tip!!
Kind regards

Itunes wont recognize my iphone 5s!!! Please help

Hi Everyone.. can someone please help me? Ive been searching this forum for 2 days now and cannot find a fix to the issue I am having.
My wife and I had iphone 4s' untill we recently upgraded to the 5s... we got both phones on the same day and simply installed from backup and everything appeared to run smoothly in both cases... Until i recently noticed that some of the music was missing from a playlist I made a while ago.
Naturally I thought to sync the phone.. This is not possible over wifi (device options are greyed out) and it wont even work using a cable as the device driver times out. Now please note I have forced an update to the driver multiple times now following advice on this site, and I have made sure that my windows updates and itunes software are fully upto date, yet I still cannot get itunes to see my phone... or my wifes phone!
Iphone software is upto date and i have tried different cables just to be sure, and still nothing! Help me apple support community.. your my only hope!
Thanks

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:

Itune wont open when iphone connected.

When I plug my Iphone into the computer either Itunes wont open or if it's open it wont recognize the phone. The computer shows it's connected because it always asks when program I wont to use to look at the pictures. I have tried rebooting the computer and it doesn't help. My IPOD is recognized but not the Iphone. Help!!!

I had the same thing. Here's what fixed it for me:
I had downloaded the latest iTunes (7.3) but because my existing copy of iTunes wasn't in the base, Applications folder, it didn't overwrite my existing iTunes application. Therefore, when you go to click on iTunes in your dock, or any desktop alias, etc., it's still opening the old version. Try opening the newly downloaded version (in the base, Applications folder) and try it again. I bet ya it'll work.

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.

I erased my macbook air and reinstalled the disc that came with it, but now iTunes wont find my iphone. What should I do?

I erased my macbook air because it was running really slow (it didn't resolve the problem). I reinstalled the disc that came with it (Mac OS X 10.6.8), but now iTunes cant find my iphone. I need to back up my data from my iphone 4s to my computer so I can transfer the info to my iphone 5. Can anyone help?

ITunes wont upgrade my iPhone 4 iOS software.

Hi. I recently updated my itunes to ver 10.2.1
I am now using a 16GB iPhone 4 but i used to have an iPhone 3GS.
I didnt have any problems with my 3GS but for some reason I can't download the iOS 4.3 software using my iTunes for my iPhone 4.
I tried using other iPhone's with my PC but it seems that the iTunes in my PC is the problem because the other phones can download the iOS 4.3 using other computers.
I tried reinstalling iTunes but that didn't solve the problem.
So what I did to upgrade my phone's iOS is I downloaded the iOS from a website and then i held the SHIFT key before clicking update in iTunes.
Now my iPhone is running iOS 4.3 but I would feel a lot better if someone can tell me how I can get my iTunes to download the iOS directly from Apple.
I did the network connectivity diagnostics test and this the result:

Either you missed some antivirus/antispyware software you have forgotten, you have some other software monitoring disk/internet usage, or your ISP is interfering with your net usage.

Itunes wont recognise my iphone 5

Ive just got my iphone 5 back from being serviced and tunes wont recognise my 'fixed' iphone 5s. All my data was backed up to itunes on my pc and i need to restore it to the phone. Help!!!!

does it show up in my computer as a camera or not at all?
have you tried connecting to other computers to see if it's detected there to verifcy that the conector is not damaged and causing the device not to be recognized by the computer?

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.
