No Apple TV in Devices - HELP!!!!!

After 4 hours trying to set up Apple TV I am at the point of giving up and returning the unit, i have tried all the usual stuff but to no avail.
I can connect to Apple TV through Airtunes and play music from PC to Apple TV, so the PC must recognise it but it will not appear in the devices tab.
Can anyone help, Please!!

I had a similar problem. I had just updated the Appletv to the new release & the iTunes to it's new release. iTunes no longer saw my Appletv after the upgrade. My library was still registered with the Appletv, so I went & added another library just to see if iTunes saw my appletv. It did, so I cancelled out of that, then deleted my old library on my Appletv. Once that was deleted, I then re-added my Library & iTunes saw my Appletv.
The downside is that you lose all of your data on your appletv when you delete the library, so when you re-add the library it will have to resync all you data back to the appletv.
This worked for me, I hope it works for you.

Only Summary & Photo Tabs under the Apple T.V Devices, Help!

Hi to all,
from itunes main page when I select Apple TV from the column on the left hand side of the page under DEVICES, I only have 2 tabs! 1 is for 'summary' of apple tv which only shows Name, Capacity, Software Version and serial number at the top of the page and nothing else, as previously it showed more information than this, and the 2nd tab is for 'Photos'.
Apple TV also keeps disconnecting itself from itunes off my laptop.
I have new music on itunes but it will not stream to Apple TV
I know I have a temporary connection between the two devices as I can mess around the the photo settings.
Please can anyone help me out.
Thanks Lance Murdoch

you linked the appletv to itunes wrong.
2 tabs mean you have connected as a shared library only - which only provides streaming options.
remove the link and add this time as a primary connection, this will give you all the tabs and syncing options.

Help, I can't sync any music to my iPhone 5s or iPad 2 ! :( it says it's finished sync but the music is greyed out and not on my devices.. I've tried unchecking the music and doing it manually. Nothing works. I took it to Apple store Robina no help..

So I have found a common denominator to this phenomenon. After having the same problem, I started to recopy my playlist of 500+ songs in groups of 10-20, 30+, 75+, and then over a 100+. Any music I have purchased from iTunes won't copy, but everything else did. Unsure if I made a playlist called "Purchased" at some point or this is an iTunes default, I also noticed it had some of the songs contained in my other playlist and was showing on my iPhone. Regardless of what I did such as dragging music from that playlist to the other and clearing songs from that playlist, I removed it altogether from the iPhone itself vs. doing through iTunes. After that, music copied fine to my playlist.
So, my theory is that iTunes is getting tripped up on purchased tracks already showing on the phone and all songs are showing grayed out/dotted circle because iTunes can't resolve the conflict with purchased tracks.
Hope this makes sense and is helpful.

PLEASE HELP!!! My 'Apple mobile device helper has stopped working'!

Today i bought the new 3G iPhone so i went online to download the new 7.7 iTunes software. Now when i go into my iTunes a Windows pop up appears telling me that my 'Apple mobile device helper has stopped working' and that it is diagnosing the problem. The thing is that it doesn't diagnose the problem, the same box just keeps popping up over and over again.
I am not very computer literate and have tried everything that i can think of but nothing has worked.
Please can someone help because i'm absolutely dying to use my new iPhone; i queued up from 6 am to get my hands on it! :0(

I'm just a simple user. I don't know how to fix it any more than any of the other posters with this problem. I've looked around in control panel, done some poking and prodding with services and processes, and can't find a reasonable way to stop the messages without completely hosing up iTunes. I know the messages are annoying as ****, and nobody likes the idea, but sitting around and doing nothing is sometimes a whole lot better then doing something that makes it worse. See if you can find a document from Apple that tells you how to go back to the previous version of iTunes. I've seen that course of action mentioned several times for previous releases of iTunes upgrades, so the instructions for it must exist in another forum.
I just think, from the number of posts, that Apple is going to have to get a fix out pretty quickly, because this error pretty much shuts down their products on the Windows platform. They can't afford to let it go on for very long.

Apple Mobile Device Helper Failed????!!!???

I tried downloading the new itunes and the new software for 2.0 and downloaded both fine but now every time i start itunes i get a message saying apple mobile device helper has failed and it will not sync or recover my phone, my phone was bricked til i recovered it on my old computer, now it seems to be working ok, but i dont have any new software. Also my new computer can not run itunes because everytime i do run it i get a message saying the helper has failed every 20 seconds or so, i want to update everything on the new computer (with vista home premium if that matters)but dont want my phone to brick again, any suggestions? already tried reinstalling itunes, and i can get the message to stop if i uninstall the apple mobile device helper but then my phone will not sync, also i have the original 8gig if that matters, thanks in advance for any help

You can go to "C" drive, Program Files, Common Files, Apple, Mobile Device Support, Bin and remove AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe file -- that will stop that message from poping up.

Apple Mobile Device Helper quits at startup-iTunes won't run.

The last two times I have started my computer the Apple Mobile Device Helper suddenly quits and I can't open iTunes. I tried to download iTunes again but the download consistenly stopped up at 17%. I don't know what's wrong. iTunes worked fine yesterday. Please help!

Okay, so the same thing is happening to me. I do not have a Mac.
I uninstalled that Apple Device Mobile Support but I don't think that helped at all.
I don't really know what I'm doing.
Everything I plus in my iPhone it doesn't pop up in my iTunes.
Please help!

(verzweifelte) Lösungsversuche:- Alle Komponenten von und mit itunes mehrmals neuinstallieren mit neustarts und registry cleanen.- itunes 10.3 nutzen: die mediathek ist nicht mehr mit 10.3 komaptibel- norton inet sec 2011 alle dienste deaktivieren- ordner Temp löschen- viele itunes support lösungsvorschläge- vieles mehr das mir garnicht mehr einfällt
Bitte helft mir ich will verdammt nochmal mein ipod synchrochnisieren oder muss ich auf 10.5 und mein iphone 5 warten !!!?!??????

Ich bin genau so vorgegangen und jetzt funktioniert alles wieder Super.
Durch Entfernen von iTunes und zugehörigen Komponenten aus der Systemsteuerung sollten alle unterstützenden Dateien entfernt werden. Nachdem Sie die vorherigen Schritte ausgeführt haben, sollten Sie sich vergewissern, dass die folgenden Dateien und Ordner entfernt wurden. Wenn sie auf dem Computer verblieben sind, entfernen Sie sie jetzt:
C:\Programme\Bonjour\
C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Apple\
C:\Programme\iTunes\
C:\Programme\iPod\

My icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

my icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

To change to iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID then sign in with the new ID. If you don't know the password for the old ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

I believe the issue is with the Apple ID that was used to purchase the App. If you download an App that was purchased under a different Appple ID then all updates will also be linked to the original purchaser's Apple ID. Your Apple ID is the the same ID as your iTunes, iCloud, etc. Some folks use different ID for the different Apple sites. No need for that One ID for all Apple Sites, and if someone else buys an App using their ID and they(you) download that App onto your device and that App requires an update it will ask for the purchasers Apple ID. This happens a lot when folks sell their iPad or give it to someone else and leave some purchased(free) Apps on the iOS device. You cannot change the original ID the App was purchased under. A suggestion would be if someone else has an App that you like but do not want to pay for use their ID or in the future have them gift the App to you.
