My ipad is not connecting the computer when i plug in, USB device not recognized pops up.  I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes without any improvement.

I cannot get my ipad to sync with the computer, the message USB device not recognized keeps popping up. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes without an improvement.

Do you have firewall or anti-virus software running?  If you do, it helps to turn it off.  Otherwise, click on this link and see if it helps:  http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/

  • I recently tried to update iTunes to 11.1, and am now getting an error message "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.d11 was not found."  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times.  Am running Windows XP Svc Pack 3.  help

    I recently tried to update iTunes to 11.1, and am now getting an error message "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes several times with no success.  I am running Windows XP Svc Pack 3.  Help please.

    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.

  • HT1923 my iphone is not showing in itune i have uninstall and reinstall itune without result.

    Dear friends,
    Sorry to take your time. Two days ago I started having a problem with my laptop which is a Hp g70 with windows vista. My screen suddenly became black and the colors were distorted. I managed to sort it out with Aero glass a software (windows) . Each time I open Itune I get this problem, each time i use aero to clear it out. I noticed also that itune has stop recognising my iphone. I have changed ports, uninstall, reinstall itune nothing happened. I have run a scan and it came out that there is a software missing that itune is not properly installed. I have repair the installation but nothing good. When i open itune my screen just changes color and i can't see nor read anything. It's funny Itune do detect my ipod but no my iphone. Please anyone has got an idea to share or might had the same problem in the past. I want to delete itune from my pc but so that my pc runs ok. But without itune your iphone and ipod are dead.

    I'm not able to update Smurf's Village. Tried most of the things proposed on the net including restarting the iPad and trying syncing with the computer. Had a similar issue with another application. Had to delete and reinstall it, with all history lost.
    Tried following up with the developer's instruction. Didn't help. Developer suggested contacting Apple if their instruction didn't work. Tried the various methods recommended on the Apple site. Same result.

    Telling is that you tried most of the things on the net doesn't tell us exactly what you did try, so we are all still left to guess .....
    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again
    If that doesnt work - go to Settings>General>Date and Time - set the date ahead by a few months. Try to update again. If you get an error message of any kind - go back and change the date and time to automatic again. Then try again.
    If that doesn't work, restart your router and reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times.  When I connect my iPod Classic I get the following message:  The software for this iPod is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes to install the required software.  Any ideas?

    Assuming you have windows, try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes.  You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful.  Note: uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.

    Try
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with              
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • I have two ipod touches and two ipad2s. One of my ipod touches and ipad2s keep popping up an unkown error 0xE800000A when I try to connect it to intunes. What to do? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and updated the ipod touch on diff comp

    One of my ipod touches and ipad2 will not connect ti itunes. Unknown error keeps popping up 0xE800000A. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I have restored to original settings but it will not appear on my computer, but will other computer. What to do?

    Thanks for the help Ricky.
    I did put my iPod into DFU and iTunes recognized it in restore mode. After restore I am back where I was before - iTunes cannot connect because of an unknown error.
    I have installed Jailbreak to see if I can bypass itunes but haven't succeeded. I can't get my computer to recopgnize the iPod as a device.
    I'll take it to a Genius bar next time I am in the area of one. Until then I'll probably continue to try hacks to get it connected.

  • After updating my iPad to ios7 my kindle cloud reader will not open. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app and it still won't open.

    After updating my iPad 2 to ios7, my kindle cloud reader will not open. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app but it still won't open.

    I am experiencing the same thing. My Kindle cloud reader (icon/shortcut placed on my iPad screen) was working fine before I updated to ios7. I can go to Amazon's website and directly log into the cloud reader and it works fine, but when I make a copy/shortcut onto my iPad's screen (from Safari), and try to login, the login screen just sits there doing nothing. I can even put in a false username and password, hit enter, and the login screen just sits there.  Knowing that Apple has made life as difficult as it can for Amazon/Kindle ( demanding outrageous fees for user to purchase books directly through the Kindle app), I wonder if the ios7 was designed to give kindle cloud readers trouble. Note, you could always login to the cloud reader directly from the amazon site, purchase the books, then use the actual kindle reader ( where thanks to Apple you can't purchase books) to read the books.

  • I'm running windows7 and an iPhone4 and also an iPod touch2. When I connect to iTunes I get the message to uninstall and reinstall itunes. I've done this numerous times but still can't connect my devices to iTunes, HELP!

    I'm running windows7 and I'm trying to connect my iPhone4 and iPod touch2 to itunes. I've installed the latest version of iTunes, and updated my iPhone's driver. When I connect either device to iTunes I get the message "you need to uninstall and reinstall itunes". I've done this multiple times with the same results. This is very frustrating, HELP!!!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • When I sync my I phone 4 to my pc the pc goes into not responding mode. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes twice today to try and fix the issue with no luck

    When I sync my iphone with my pc my pc goes non responsive and itunes acts like it is syncing but the syncing never completes and after a while I try to stop the sync to find that I have to go to the task manager to end the task. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes two or three times with the same results. Anyone else ever experience this?

    I solved my own problem....I simply moved the cable to another port while moving the mouse to the USB ports on the opposite side of the computer....and the computr finally recognized the phone...I know it sounds weird but it worked...so if you are having the same problem that  had trying removing all the crap you have plugged into the USB ports on your computer THEN plug in your IPhone 4s...use the cable that came with the phone and nothing else...good luck..>!!!

    When uninstalling iTunes on your windows computer, there is a specific way it must be done in order to completely uninstall all components of the software.  Ensure you follow the article for your correct OS.
    Did you do this when uninstalling??

    See this on how to back up your music to removeable media, such as CD or DVD:
    Backing up your music files in iTunes
    It's a very good idea to do this, but know that uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes will not affect the music stored on your computer.
