Latest iTunes update cannot see iPhone 4

I updated to the latest version of iTunes today after prompting from iTunes which advised there was a new update.
Following this I restarted my Windows PC, then opened up iTunes.
I then connected my iPhone 4 using the USB connector.
My PC recognised the device
The device was not seen in iTunes
The device would not sync.
I then removed iTunes and installed an old Nov 2013 (or previous version) one and my iPhone 4 will now sync correctly.
I am not too keen on updating the s/w until anyone else has advised me that I should retry.

Hy there,
In order for you to solve this problem you have to follow these stept if your running windows:
1'st step is to go into the device manager
2 step is to go to portable devices (it is rught under network adapters)
3 step is to right clic apple iphone and click update drivers
4 step is to brows your drivers from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
After that your itunes will pump up alown and youl see your iphone right there.
Good luck and sry for my bad righting.

Latest itunes update disbled my iphone personal hotspot on 1-22-2014

On 1/22/2014 I downloaded the latest itunes update. When it was done itunes would not recognize my iphone and my computer would not connect with iphone for internet. I use my iphone4s as a personal hotspot to access the internet. I had to do a computer system restore just to get the phone and computer to work together via USB cable to access internet. I then was able to update the Ralink driver to enable wi-fi. I seem to have everything working now. Why did this happen? Should I ever allow itunes updates again?

SOLVED, BY MYSELF
Ok, so I had to post this because I didn't get any help anywhere, and I hope that my experience will help others. I can't tell you how many times I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes to see if that helped. No. What I finally did out of frustration, is under add/remove programs, removed everything apple related from my pc: itunes, safari, quicktime, apple application support, apple mobile device support, apple software update, bonjour, and mobileme. Then I reinstalled itunes. Finally itunes recognized my iphone, and I didn't lose any of my music. Hope this helps everyone who has had a similar problem running windows xp.

After latest itunes update, cannot run itunes: get error MSVCR80.dll is missing. What to do?

Tried uninstalling all apple programs, and downloading and reinstalling itunes. But itunes did not install correctly, and it tells me to reinstall. And if I click on the itunes icon I again get the error message than MSVCR80.dll is missing. (This is on my Windows 7 machine.)

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

After installing the latest itunes update most of my music cannot be located. A box pops up and says the song cannot be found. What can I do?

I installed the latest itunes update and now I can't play most of my songs. A box pops up that says it cannot be located and asks me if I want to locate it and when I click on Yes it gives me all my files on the computer (dropdown box) and I don't know how to find them. Some of my songs will still play.

The "missing file" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then say no when asked to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. I can provide a step by step guide if you give me the two paths.
In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps and locate the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links. Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

Having the same issue.. All of playlists were deleted as well as the majority of my music can't be located. It seems the only music that can be located is the music I have purchased directly through itunes/iphone.
The location where itunes thinks my music file is:
"file://localhost/C:/Users/MY NAME/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/"
The actual location where my music file is:
"C:/Users/MY NAME/My Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/"
This is weird because I have not moved my music and it was working fine before I upgraded to the new iTunes...
My steps:
1) update itunes to latest version
2) plug in old phone take backup in itunes
3) plug in new phone and restore from that backup
I didn't notice the issue until I looked on my phone and all of music was missing from my phone along with playlists (minus the music I purchased directly from iphone/itunes.
Then I looked in itunes in my music library and saw itunes can't locate my music files. I also tried replacing the previous itunes library file as noted in the support link above but didn't do anything..
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Can I still sync my iphone 4 in ios 7 to the latest itunes update?

Right now my iTunes and my laptop can't detect my device (iphone 4), so I'm wondering if installing the latest iTunes update is the case. And I'm also worried if I do that, it will only prevent me from syncing my iphone to my iTunes. Help anyone?

Hi ..
An iPhone 4 cannot be updated to iOS 8 > Apple - iOS 8 - What’s New
iOS 7.1.2 is the latest version available for an iPhone 4.
If iTunes doesn't recognize the iPhone ...
For Mac > iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
For Windows > iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Make sure your computer meets the requiremens for iTunes for Mac or Windows > Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now

Iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update. I have done all trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail.

iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update. I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Hello, I am quite new on these forums, and mainy joined because have problems with latest update of iTunes, which seems to have caused problems of one kind or another for various people. I think basically people are now waiting for a 'patch' from Apple to fix things.

Latest iTunes update; iPhone sync takes a long, long time

I have a 64GB iPhone 4S, up to date with latest software. I have iTunes running on a Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows Vista 64-bit SP2; running latest update of iTunes.
I am currently doing my second iPhone sync to change out a bunch of music since the latest iTunes update. I have tons of records, and I like to switch up the tunes quite a bit. I love the 64GB iPhone; holds over 500 albums.
Both, the first time and now this time, the sync is taking forever. Seriously, as I type this the sync is now past two hours and looks to be about 60% done.
Prior to this update (both iTunes and phone), the sync took maybe 20 minutes, Nothing else has changed; same computer/operating system, no bugs or viruses. The only thing I think it can be is this latest update to iTunes; which, by the way, dumped all my albums when the update was done. I had to add all the folders again; that took a while and a lot of album covers were lost. Big pain in the butt, basically.
I don't know if you Apple people are listening, but this is eroding my confidence in your brand. Will I spring for a MacBook like I was planning? Hmmm...

No solution - just the same problem.
My wife's 4s (iOS 7.0.2) has been hanging at syncing Contacts on iTunes 11.1 (iMac; Mountain Lion) the past several days. It never gets past "Syncing Contacts".
Doesn't anyone have any advice. I've hard re-booted her iPhone; re-booted the iMac.
We don't have this problem with either my iPhone 5 (7.0.2), her 2nd-gen iPad or her old iPot Touch.
We share the same contacts and calendars across all of these devices and the iMac.

Since the latest ITunes update, I cannot find all the CD songs I converted to ITunes. All it shows are the songs I purchased.

Hello jerryfromil,
I've found an article that may help get your content back into iTunes.

While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

If the place of purchase does not have a 'Lemon' policy (three replacements = refund or complete exchange), sadly you are out of luck.
And Apple themselves do not have any power over what policy a reseller uses. You can call Apple Care and have them replace it, but the odds are you would probably get a standard replacement again like has previously happened. I'm pretty sure Apple holds their own sort of 'Lemon' polocy where if it's been replaced three times through them they'll swap it out for a brand new phone. Not 100% sure though, best bet is too call them again.
And it ***** getting a response like that from their support personel, but hey, they can't all be that bad can they? I'm sure if you plead your case they'll try and help out. I've dealt with them in the past and had one or two people that rubbed me the wrong way, but most of them have been a great help and kept me a happy customer, haha.

Should I download latest iTunes first or the iPhone update?

Should I download latest iTunes first or the iPhone update or does it matter? Thank you.

It shouldn't matter. If iTunes promps you to update your iPhone when you plug it in than you have a new enough version and should be totally fine.

Just upgraded to the latest iTunes and cannot delete anything from my iPhone

Just upgraded to the latest iTunes and cannot delete anything from my iPhone. I need to delete a playlist to make room for a new one, but Delete does not even show up as an option (nor does the delete key on my keyboard delete anything.

Could you possibly be more vague?
If you want help you have to provide details, not just "I can't synch my phone". Why can't you synch? What error messages do you get? Give us something.
