  • Iphone charges on my computer, but doesn't appear in itunes devices

    My iPhone, which I have used with my laptop before, will now not appear in iTunes, but the phone is charging. I'm not getting any error messages, and the charge is normal - it just won't appear in iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes.

    Yeah, I followed the advice they gave me at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 and I restarted everything. I decided to hook it up to my Windows XP laptop and it began to charge, but then said that the USB device was not working properly. My Mac doesn't give that message. I did a soft reset on the phone, but I'm reluctant to do a hard reset, since the last time I did that I was on the phone with tech support for several hours over the course of several days.

  • IPod doesn't appear in iTunes or Device Manager.

    My iPod has worked fine, until I plugged it into my computer, and attempted to upgrade to version 1.1.4, now my iPod touch doesn't appear when I plug it into my computer. It doesn't appear in iTunes, or in the device manager, it does however start charging. Also, it has completely wiped the enitire memory (Music, photos, videos etc).
    I have tryed the "5 R's", restart, reset etc etc. None of it works. I have tryed re-installing everything (iTune, quicktime, etc) and that doesn't work.
    I've tryed hard and soft resets, and I've tryed restarting the Apple Mobile Device thingy.
    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
    Pretty please

    I figured it out
    You have to put you iPod in recovery mode.
    You do this by...
    Turning off your iPod properly (hold the top button in for 6 seconds, slide the slider)
    Then you hold the home button, an while your still holding it down, connect to your computer.
    Keep holding, keep holding when the apple comes up, keep holdin until you see the 'Like to iTunes' picture.
    Then iTunes should say it detects an iPod in recovery mode, an it should happen from there

  • Nano does not appear in ITunes or Finder; unable to re-set device

    Suddenly my 2nd gen nano does not appear in ITunes or Finder. I looked up support articles and it says to try re-setting the Nano, but I'm unable to do that -- I press the center and menu buttons; have also tried the menu and play buttons but the apple logo never appears. I've had problems with the menu button "sticking" before, so perhaps that's why...Nevertheless, how else do I fix this issue?? I've been unable to sync or transfer my recent purchases, so this is frustrating....

    - however once i reached the crutial stage of
    actually switching the 'terminal services' from
    disabled to manual, I get an error message on my
    computer "Error 5: Access denied" and nothing on the
    site gives any indication of what to do in such an
    eventuality.
    Do you have an administrator account on your computer? If you are not logged in as administrator, do so before attempting to change the to manual. However, I myself am having the same problems with my own ipod..

  • IPod doesn't appear in iTunes

    My iPod Touch doesn't appear in ITunes, so of course I can't sync it.
    Now, my iPod nano syncs just fine with the same cable and USB connection, so the problem must be with the iPod touch. 
    When I plug it in, I get that little "chirp" and the battery indicator appears on the screen, but that's it.
    Any ideas what's going on?   What should I do?

    Try here. The iPod touch (and iPhone and iPad) use different drivers than the Nano.

  • IPod doesn't appear in iTunes and Windows

    I have a next problem with connecting nano with Windows:
    iPod doesn't appear in iTunes: iTunes 7 diagnostic write that host-controller of bus IEEE 1394 was not found.
    Sometimes Windows see the demountable disk, but can't open it. Occasionally, when i charge nano, iTunes gives out the message, that iPod is damaged.
    After connecting iPod to the computer, it shows the "Do not disconnect" screen, which not disappear after nano disconnecting. And I need reset iPod everytime after charging.
    Does any help me?

  • 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.

  • My iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes after setting up iCloud syncing

  • Iphone 4s doesn't appear in itunes following iOS 6 installation

    iphone 4s doesn't appear in itunes following iOS 6 installation
    can someone help me out?

    No dice. See my comment above; I already turned that on before posting.
    To get your device to appear in iTunes and to automatically sync with iTunes, simply disable backup to iCloud on your iOS device. Voila! Your iOS device will appear in iTunes and auto-sync the selected content. For example, I'm now subscribing to a ton of podcasts that I used to manually download one-by-one b/c the tethered syncing process was just too painful. Now that my iPhone 4S appears as an always-connected device in iTunes, the latest versions of my podcasts shall auotmatically appear on the iPhone when I awake in the morning before my long commute to work.

  • My ipad doesn't appear in iTunes. I have followed the Apple troubleshooting tips and step by step guide but it is still not there

    My iPad doesn't appear in iTunes. I have followed the Apple troubleshooting guide, step by step. I have rebooted both devices, checked that I have a USB 2.0 and still it doesn't appear under devices. The iPad shows as a camera in iPhoto and downloads the photos but doesn't show as a device.

    Do you have a PC? if so, go into the control panel, look for the add/remove programs. Look for one named something like 'apple mobile device support'. remove it and restart your computer. then plug your device in and see if the driver installs.
