My ipad no longer shows up on itunes

my ipad no longer shows up in itunes

Keep in mind, the new iTunes is in a different format.  To revert to a more familiar format:
In the top menu bar in iTunes, select
1.  View
2.  Show sidebar
Is the device now on the more familiar left hand pane or still not recognized?

  • Iphone ipod and iPad no longer show up in itunes

    None of my devices show up in the iTunes "devices" list anymore since I updated to OS X 10.7.4 recently whether plugged in via USB or wireless.  Using iTunes 10.6.1.  I have never had any issue like this before.  I have iPods, and iPhone4, iPad, and Apple TV 1st gen and none of them appear.

    Hi HeatherAC92!
    I have an article here that addresses the issue you are experiencing:

  • IPads no longer appear/sync in iTunes 11.0.4

    Since iTunes 11.0.4 update (OS X 10.8.4), all the iPads no longer appear as devices in iTunes and thus won't synchronise.
    iPod classic & nano still show up when connected and sync. fine.
    The iPads no longer show up either via WiFi or USB connection: 2 x iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad mini.
    Their backups have also vanished from Prefs -> Devices.
    Don't see any logs appear when they connect via USB.
    Tried connecting an iPad to a MacBook Pro running iTunes 11.0.3 and it showed up fine.

    Fixed!
    Downgrading to 11.0.3 didn't help, but it meant I could re-upgrade it again.
    Downloaded the installer from Apple rather than via App Store and bang - all the iPads are now seen again.
    All the iPad backups are now shown again too, including the gen. 2 iPod touch that I've not synced for ages (because all the apps I used to use on it no longer support its version of iOS).
    Strange.  Will download the full installer from now on.

  • My ipad no longer shows up as a listed device on my computer

    Several days ago my computer received a Windows 7 update. Since then my ipad no longer shows up when I hit the Start button and go to "Computer". Up until recently it had been listed as a portable device. I switched USB ports, but that didn't help. I did a System Restore to just prior to the Windows update, but that didn't work either. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    With iTunes open do Control S and see if that shows the iPad.
    Another thing I've had to do on my Windows computer is Stop the Apple Mobile Device Service, the restart it.
    To do this:  In the seach bar on Windows, type Services
    A box will open and you choose Services (it has a big round gear next to it)
    Another box will open with all the services your computer manages
    Click on Apple Mobile Device Services
    Stop it
    Restart it
    See if your device shows up now.

    My iPad no longer appears in the iTunes desktop app, so I can't sync or transfer files?
    I also have an iPod Touch. It appears in iTunes but willnot sync... "unknown error 1723"
    This is a recent problem. Everything was fine initially, and I don't think that I've done anything to change my setup.

  • When I went to update my iPod touch on iTunes, it said unable to update then the iPod shutdown and no longer showed connected in iTunes.  I have tried holding down both buttons for up to 3 mins with no luck turning it on, even after a full charge.  Help?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • AppleTV no longer shows up in iTunes after Snow Leopard security update?

    I just installed the latest security update for Snow Leopard and now my AppleTV no longer shows up in iTunes. I don't know for sure if the security update is actually the cause, but I was able to connect not even an hour earlier in the evening.
    Anyone else seeing this behaviour? I've power cycled the ATV, along with my router with no change.

    Could be the same problem others are having with latest version of iTunes. See this thread:

  • Apple TV no longer showing up in Itunes

    I went to settings on Apple TV and tested the network, which was o.k. Apple TV is connected through an ethernet connection to a Linksys router. Apple TV no longer shows up in Itunes. An aside question relating to Itunes: In my movie library, to the left of the movie name, a circle sometimes appears. Some movies have no circles. Some of the circles which appear are solid blue, some are half blue/half white. What do these circles and color codes mean? thanks

    Have you tried restarting all your equipment, has anything anywhere on your set p changed.

    A blue circle indicates you haven't yet watched it, a half blue circle that you have started to watch it but didn't finish it.

  • Aple tv no longer showing up in iTunes

    Anyone know why my 1st generation AppleTV's (2) are no longer showing up in itunes?  I used to be able to see them and could tell when they are syncing.  Now they no longer dowload content either.
    Thanks!

  • I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging.  When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point.  Is it dead for good?

    I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging.  When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point.  Is it dead for good?

    If it is otherwise working, you can change the battery.  If you want to do it yourself, you can buy the part on eBay and other online sources.  Just make sure you know the type of iPod you have so that you get the right part.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
    There are online guides, including the ones on this web site
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod
    (Note:  Most replacement batteries come with plastic/nylon tools seen in the guides.)
    You can also have a repair business do the work.
    If it is just the battery, if you do a Reset (using the Menu and Select buttons) while it is connect to your computer, I think it should still be recognized by iTunes.

  • How Come My iPhone 3G No Longer Shows Up in iTunes?

    All of a sudden my iPhone doesn't show up in the iTunes sidebar on my 20" iMac, but using the same cable it does on my MacBook. I have tried plugging it in diretly to the iMac as well as to my Belkin hub, but it no longer shows up in iTunes, nor does it charge when plugged it. The iPhone stays dark when first pluged in.
    Does anyone know why when plugging in the iPhone 3G or my iPod Classic (old school) it won't load on the side bar of iTunes? It is like it does not exist. I have done all updates. I restarted my computer a couple of times and finally got the iPod Classic to load but still the iPhone 3G shows nothing. It won';t even boot my phone up to charge it but will the iPod.
    I use the iPhone on my MackBook with the same cord and it loads to iTunes and starts to sync. Same with the iPod. Both computers are running the same software. Since it works on the MacBook and use to work on then iMac G5 I am thinking it may have something to do with the updates for iTunes. I use the MacBook to charge the iPhone and iPod sometimes but the main computer for syncing is the iMac. Only nothing seems to work. After restarting the iMac several times the iPod seems to work then not work. I am frustrated. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    hi John, i have my doubt that it has something to do with authorization/deauthorization. I have read somewhere before that the iPhone (not sure about iPod) can only be "paired" with one mac and if you want to synch it with another one, you need to deauthorize the initial one first. Inside iTune up on its menu bar under Store, there are 2 options that said authorize and deauthorize. Now i haven't tried this before as i only got myself one mac, so i have no past experience here with this particular case. May be some other experienced users can shed some light on this and share with us, before you try out?

  • Remote speakers no longer show up in iTunes

    I have recently had to send my DVD/surround-sound into the shop for repair. It used to play iTunes through Airport Express fine, but now I've tried hooking Airport up to both my TV and another stereo, but in both cases remote speakers no longer show up in iTunes. I've tried reconfiguring Airport Express, and have got 'look for remote speakers' checked in iTunes prefs, bit to no avail...can anyone help me?
    Also, on a related note, last time I had probas, I chatted with a support guy online somewhere on Apple.com but I can't seem to find this anymore...anyone know where it's gone?

    I had the same problem. I was using iTunes 7.0.2 with two Airport Express devices and it worked fine when the Bonjour service was running at the same time.
    After I upgraded to iTunes 7.1 I was unable to connect to my Airport Express devices unless I disabled\stopped the Bonjour service. :-/
    While disabling the Bonjour service is a workaround for iTunes, it breaks other 3rd party apps that use the Bonjour service to stream to the Airport Express devices. I have a WinAmp plugin that allows me to stream WinAmp to my Airport devices that doesn't work when the Bonjour service is turned off.
    I hope Apple fixes this problem ASAP. I hope Apple didn't do this to intentionally to defeat 3rd party apps that figured out how to stream to an Airport Express.
