My new Ipad mini has the same name as my old Ipad. Now Itunes will not recognize either Ipad. Do I need to reset both or just the new one? How do I get them to have different names?
My new Ipad named itself the same as my old Ipad. Now neither will be recognized in Itunes. Should I reset new Ipad to factory settings and start over? How do I name it what I want?
To rename them go to Settings>General>About>Name.
Don't start all over again. There are solutions for devices that are not being seen in iTunes. Try those suggestions first.

Forgot the passcode to my ipad. When I went to restore it, it asked me if I wanted to update the software so I said yes. It then went into recovery mode, I'm guessing, with the connect to iTunes showing on the screen. Now iTunes will not recognize it so I have no idea how to get it back! Help!!
Then you will need to try restoring it once more:
Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
* If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information. -
my itunes will not recognize my ipad anymore. Did everything it told me too. What can I do now.
Have you tried here > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If so...
Try a Restart of your Computer and this Reset for the iPad...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons.. -
Itunes will not recognize either my iphone 5 or my ipad since I have downloaded the new Itunes upgrade on my Windows 8.1 system. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and none of that works. Can someone help with this?
I've uninstalled and reinstalled and none of that works.
Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

ITunes will not recognize my iPad or iPhone.
iTunes will not recognize my iPad or my iPhone. However, it will recognize several older iPods. I am working in Windows 8. Help. I have tried everything I could find and even uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes.
I really think that my PC is not recognizing these correctly. When I plug in my iPad it opens directly as an external storage device. This was working properly a week ago. What happened?Everytime I try i get an error message that states that itunes has been installed incorrectly.
What's the precise text of that message, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.) -

I now have the newest version of iTunes. My iPad is up-to-date as well. When I plug in the USB to my computer, it makes the proper sound, but I do not see the device identified in iTunes and therefore cannot sync it. Instead, it opens to the file location for my iPad. How do I connect iTunes to my iPad? It was working perfectly before I updated iTunes.

Yesterday my autistic daughter was using my phone, as she often does. Some things got deleted. I went to do a restore and it showed the last backup was 4/1/14. My phone auto synced at 10:51 AM on 4/3/14. I had to leave, and when I came back itunes no longer recognized my phone. Its charging, it can import pictures, but nothing on itunes works. I wanted to do a restore, but now I only see the 10:51 backup, which is after selected items were deleted.
My questions: How can I make Itunes recognize my iphone (running windows 8) How can I find the backup from 4/1/14, as it has the most current information?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
ShellyHello Shelly700,

Changed my apple id to new email address and now iTunes doesn't recognize either.
I changed ISP and had to change my apple id (it was my old email address, back when you had to use an email address as apple id.) Now, iTunes will not recognize my new apple id or my old one. How can I fix this? It won't let me do anything with the apps on my iPhone.
How did you change your apple ID?
I dont belie you can change your Apple ID, but you can add and delete email addresses that it recognized...
Goto https://appleid.apple.com/ and sign into your account... then you can edit the information... -
I recently upgraded my Itunes softeware, now itunes will not recognize my IPod Classic. If I delete the current IPod software and reinstall it, would this solve the problem, and if so, I'll need step by step instruction.
Yep.

I have 2 apple ID one for Egypt and other for USA , now I try to update the software but I get a message said that this software download with other ID, then I logout and sign with second ID but i got the same message again ... Now I can not sign in more
Any solution ?
I'm using iOS 6.1.2 IPad 3
RegardsI have also noticed the same "problem". I do not fully understand the impact of using the same ID on multiple computers and devices if I want to keep them all in sync.
