My MacBook recognizes my iPhone as a camera but it doesn't appear in iTunes???
When I plug my iPhone 4S w/ updated software into my MacBook (w/ updated software), iPhoto opens on the computer but the iPhone does not appear in my Devices on iTunes. It's not a connection issue - my iPhone connects and syncs fine with my Windows Netbook, must be something with the MacBook - help!

Computer recognizes your iPhone as a camera but it doesn't appear in iTunes
Computer recognizes my iPhone as a camera but it doesn't appear in iTunes. Help. I've restart Apple Mobile already. Still didn't help.
Well, you do not indicate what computer OS you're using, so I'll give you a link to both. Use the one that applies.

I need to track someone elses device from my mac book pro it says the app is downloaded but I don't see how to track the iphone?Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can purchase Lion from the Mac App Store. You will need to meet the requirements for Lion, but the Mac App Store will tell you whether your Mac is capable of running Lion or not. -
i have a year old iphone and a new computer with Win 8. The computer recignizes the phone as a camera, and generates a picture of the iphone sitting on the screen. I have downloaded itunes twice, and cannot get thecolumn on the left with the choices for interacting with the iphone, synching, etc. I would love some directions. Is this a windoiws 8 problem?
well, afterstruggling with this for 2 weeks, i posted my question and went back to the computer to start work, and up popped a windowfrom itunes regarding updating my phone. So now it is synched.
Thanks -

How do I get my photos off 1st generation itouch? I have macbook pro, ipad, iphone. Itouch syncs but does not have option to share in any capacity ie send via email, etc. Also, the computer from which photos were originally taken from has crashed.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Did you fail to back up your pics?
The photo sync is one way - comptuer to ipod.
You can e-mail them to yourself (instructions in the manual), but they will not be of the original quality. -
I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?
Backup first
It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
Erase before the install
Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
During the install
Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
OS numbers and names
OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
OS X 10.7.x - Lion
OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion

The Apple History site has specifications for every Mac ever produced: http://www.apple-history.com/
Upgrade to Leopard
Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
Upgrade beyond Leopard
OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages. -
IPhone 3G doesn't appear in iTunes 10.6.3
After upgrading to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 a few weeks ago, I was unable to see my iPhone 3G in iTunes. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, which fixed the problem, and I've synced once or twice since then. Today the device once again doesn't show up in iTunes. The cable works, since iPhoto (7.1.5) recognizes the device and downloads photos just fine. iTunes may not be totally to blame, since it can recognize my old iPod (1.1.2). The phone is on iOS 4.2.1. Restarting the phone and the computer made no difference. Any ideas for fixes?
Apple's support is worthless - it tells you what programs are needed on your computer and how to find if they are running, but fails to tell you how to install what might be missing. My iPhone would synch fine until I updated to iTunes 7, but now my computer thinks my phone is a camera and doesn't appear on iTunes. None of the support pages provide any help. It appears that Apple has adopted the Microsoft model for customer disservice! Any third party assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I have a ipod touch and an iphone. Now, when I connect the ipod touch it says it can't read the contents and to restore it, which I did. It was fine for that day but the next it said the same thing, to restore it. How do I get this to work. It had said to delete the back up file but it didn't say how to do it. Also it shows in my computer as a digital camera but it doesn't have one.

Hello popsicles,
This first article should be helpful in getting iTunes to recognize your iPad once more:

If the device is still disabled once it's appeared in iTunes again, please reference this second article:

I have a MacBook Pro, I want to copy Itunes files to an SD card to play in my car, the SD Card doesn't appear in Itunes when I insert it, and I don't know how to convert the files to the correct format, can anyone help?
Thank youSo it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB
