My iphone is not showing up as a device in itunes when it is plugged into my computer, how do I fix this?

I have tried restarting my computer and my iphone but this didn't help. My phone is connecting to the computer and it is showing up in my computer but it will not show up in itunes. I'm not sure what else to do. Please help.

Right-click the Apple Mobile Device entry in Device Manager and choose Update Driver Software. 
Select "Browse my computer for driver software."
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer."
Click the Have Disk button. Note: If the Have Disk option is not present, choose a device category such as Mobile Phone or Storage Device if listed, and then click next. The Have Disk button should then appear.
Click the Browse button and navigate to 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 Open in the Have Disk window. Then, click Next and then Click Finish. Windows will install the driver.

  • HT1386 My ipod touch is not recognized and will not charge or sync when plugged into my computer, how do I fix this?

    My 5th gen Ipod touch has not been recognized by my computer since IOS 7 came out. I havn't been able to sync any new songs (wi-fi or plugged into the computer) and will not charge while plugged into the computer. I have tried to find it in the device manager menu also but to no avail.

  • My iPhone doesn't show up as a Device in iTunes via wi-fi.

    How come I can't sync by wi-fi? My iPhone doesn't show up as a Device in iTunes unless it's connected by USB cable. "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" is checked in iTunes. (I can sync ONLY by USB cable--ironic because I won't upgrade to Mavericks until it allows USB local syncing.) What am I missing?
    Macbook with OS X Mountain Lion.
    iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1

    Is your iPhone plugged in to a charger?  I believe that is a requirement for WiFi sync.

    I sync my iPhone and iPad to my Mac running Mavericks using USB local syncing all the time.
    Maybe you're referring to the fact that iCloud is the sync mechanism for Contacts and Calendars now.  If not, I don't understand your comment.

    No. You are the only one. The way I know is that I don't have the problem, therefore no one else can have it.
    Seriously, no matter what problem you have, with a half billion iPhones in use, someone else will have the same or similar problem. So knowing that doesn't help solve it in the slightest. As it's new and still in warranty I would take it to an Apple store. Make a genius bar appointment first so you won't have a long wait.

    You may have  moved or removed content on your page or  its possible you  used the"Adjust Image" and over sharpeed one or more images.
    I assume  you mean it does not show up of new Chapter pages... have you checked the  template?
    Where you see the  ?    you  need to either reduce teh  box outline size - or drop anther  copy of the original image onto  it, it may  fill the  ? box or sit on top.... delete the ? box.
    If its Chapter page only related, its  better doing this in the template.
    Is you image .jpg or .png?
