My iTunes does not show the "Device" heading so I can't see my iPad.  I also can't connect to the iTunes store.

I also can't connect to the iTunes store.  Strangely though I can access my library on my iPad.  I'm trying to copy karaoke files I use for work on to Karaoke Anywhere, and I need to "see" my iPad under Devices to do it.
I have reset the iPad, reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime, disabled any automatically run startup software.  I have deleted podcasts and changed the date.
Why the heck isn't this working?  I've only had this thing for 2 weeks and I've been more frustrated by it than by any Windows device I've ever owned!!!

Have you tried restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service?

  • ITunes does not show any devices

    My iTunes does not show any devices, even the new iPhone connected directly to the PC.

    Hey rtm56,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that your iOS devices are not being recognized by iTunes for Windows. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

  • When I connect my iphone to the computer iTunes does not show my device but syncs???

    I connect my phone to the computer and it does sync but it does not show my device?  How can I see my device in itunes?

    Hello Crenshaw2332
    With the new version of iTunes, it would be the the left of the iTunes Store icon
    If you like how itunes worked before, I will suggest taking a look at the article that will bring back most commonly used features in iTunes.
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    In iTunes 11 you have the option to turn the Sidebar and the Status Bar on or off; they are off by default. To do this in the menus, go to:
    Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
    Show Status Bar - Choose View > Show Status Bar (this feature will conveniently display the number of items and playback time for a category, for example, music or movies).
    Thanks for your question

  • When I connect my ipad or ipod to the computer, itunes does not show them as a "device".

    When I connect my ipad or ipod to the computer, itunes does not show them as a "device", however my computer can see they are connected. so it seems to be a problem with itunes. i have tried re-installing itunes and it still doesnt work.
    My Iphone does show as a device when connecteing wirelessly.
    Its not a problem with the driver becasue the computer can see the devices, so its a problem in itunes.

    Hello mimward,
    It sounds like Windows can see your devices, but iTunes is not seeing them. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article named:

  • HT1384 My ipod nano 3rd generation, when connected by usb, does not show up in itunes, does not show up on my computer, does not seem to charge by the wall charger. It just has a black screen. Any ideas for me?

    My ipod nano 3rd generation, when connected by usb, does not show up in itunes, does not show up on my computer, does not seem to charge by the wall charger. It just has a black screen. Any ideas for me?
    I've run diagnostics. Can't find device. I've tried resetting. The toggle has been turned on and off.

    Cable works fine on my other iPod. Reset by pressing menu and center button together for 6-10 seconds. Left it to charge for many hours. Started acting up while running. Suddenly the music stopped playing but my Nike + was still working for the rest of my run. Took it straight it home and plugged it in to the wall to recharge since the battery was fairly low. Looked like it recharged ok but then screen went blank and now does it not show up on iTunes, does not seem to recharge by the wall charger (apple wall charger plugged into a surge protector in India). I have turned the hold switch off and on many times.
    Sounds like a repair issue, which is not easy to do in India :(

  • I have downloaded latest itunes but my ipad does not show in devices when I try to sync.  Any suggestions?

    I have just gotten my new ipad!!!  I downloaded latest version of itunes but my ipad does not show in devices when I try to sync music.  Any suggestions??

    Does a little box come up seeing the iPad as a camera? That doesn't impact iTunes as much as it confirms that your computer sees the device. If your computer doesn't see it then iTunes doesn't know it's there.
    If you're plugged into a hub or extender, try plugging it directly into the box or main part of your computer.
    If you're using an extension, stop and just use the included sync cable.
    Try using a different USB port.
    After you installed iTunes, did you restart your computer?
    Usually what's needed is the 'apple device driver' which installs automatically, you just need to sometimes trigger the install, using different ports helps with that.
    If the simple trouble shooting doesn't help then you can search on the Apple Device Driver and there's more detailed trouble shooting on the site.

  • CD does not show under Devices on iTunes

    I am a new user and would appreciate any suggestions. My iPod shows under Devices on iTunes, and I've had no problem buying music from iTunes store or loading to iPod.
    I have set iTunes to be the default player of music cds but they do not play when loaded (iTunes opens) and the CD does not show under Devices.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    There is a hardware problem.  Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

  • I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information

    I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information (it just shows a blank white screen with "iphone" in the centre".

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • After downloading album covers (some not found) itunes does not show most of the covers.

    After downloading album covers into iTunes iTunes does not show most of the covers. It showas blank white boxes except for those where "cover not found" (music notes).
    You have any idea how this happens, perhaps with location of the files.

    iTunes refuses to play/read file, it cannot recognizes headers, or recognizes those as corrupt, but giving no error messages. The problem is the stored artwork(s) on your music files. To correct this, select the files that are corrupted/cannot be played on iTunes&iPod, click "Convert ID3 Tags...", then select v1.1 from the dropdown box (first, try this on a few to see that my solution is working).
    By doing so, iTunes replaces headers, but your ID3 tags will not be changed (I assume you are using ID3 v2.4), nor you'll lose any info or anything else. This works as a hotfix for those files. If you try to replace headers via another program, your information will be truncated, and any artwork stored will be deleted. So I recommend this one.
    You'll see that iTunes cannot play most of the files that has artwork(s) stored in them. New version hasn't fixed this problem, and it has risen with iTunes 8.2.x. If it's going to take long, I suggest you should go back to 8.1.x.
    With best regards,

  • TS3697 My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.

    My new iTunes does not show me a PHOTOS tab when syncing my iPad 3. It only shows Music, Films and Apps tabs on the top left menu.
    What am I going to do?

    The Photos tab doesn't appear there. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos e.g. :
    If you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • Why does Group created on Master console does not show any device count mapped on the managed Amp?

    Q: Why does Group created on Master console does not show any device count mapped on the managed Amp?
    A: When a group is created on master console it will be pushed to all the managed amp which is added with Manage group configuration enabled. The Group pushed to the managed amp will be created as Global group and you can create subscriber groups for the global group to which you will add the device into since we cannot add any devices into global group directly.
    Hence there is no device added to the global group, on the master console it does not show any device count for the groups that are created on master console.
