Similar to "Iphone does not appear in Itunes!!" but on a mac

(This is different from what I posted under the other topic.)
Hi. I am all Mac and cannot get either my iPhone nor my iPod Touch 2nd Gen to be recognized by iTunes.
I know this is iPhone section but I feel bother are suffering from the same problem. If this is incorrect, I will definitely post in the iPod section. Here are the specs:
OS 10.6.7
iTunes 10.2.1
iPhone 4 v4.3
iPod Touch 2nd Gen v 4.2.1.
I also tried different USB ports and USB cables. I powered them down to try & reset but no luck. Both have only ever been sync'd to my main Mac Pro computer.
Thank you for your time and look forward to hearing from anyone soon. l;o)

  • TS4062 my iPhone does not appear in itunes but appears in windows

    my iphone does not appear in itunes but appears in windows, but not as Jordan's iPhone but as Apple iPhone

    This has been happening to alot of people since the latest update to iTunes for those that have windows 8 or 8.1

  • Iphone does not appear in itunes. _ALL_ recommended steps were taken to no avail

    I'm using windows 7 pro 64-bit, itunes 10.3.1.  I have an iphone 3gs running ios v. 4.3.3.  All software and drivers are up-to-date on my computer.
    When I open itunes and plug in my iphone, itunes hangs for roughly two solid minutes.  After which, my iphone does not appear in itunes.  The same thing happens if I reverse the order and plug in my iphone before opening itunes.
    I have read and followed all and I mean all the instructions in multiple articles on the apple support site to try and resolve the issue, and nothing has fixed the problem.  My impression is that this is a bug in the latest itunes release since the problem started after updating to the latest version of itunes and did not occur previously.  Nothing else changed with either my computer or my iphone since then.  In all other ways, my computer, all USB devices connected to it, and all other software installed on it function perfectly.
    Here are the things I have done that DO NOT RESOLVE MY PROBLEM:
    - restart apple mobile device service and verify it is configured correctly
    - restart ipod service and verify it is configured correctly
    - restart my computer
    - reset my iphone
    - verify that my USB drivers are up-to-date and all USB ports are functioning correctly
    - verify that my iphone DOES correctly appear in windows explorer and the device manager
    - verify that my security software (norton 360) is updated to the latest version
    For the record I am not running any third-party phone software.
    Here is the only thing I have found that works, however, it works ONLY for the first time I open itunes afterwards.  After syncing ONE TIME, the next time I open itunes, the problem comes back exactly like before.
    - completely uninstall, and then reinstall all apple software in precise accordance with instructions given on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    I honestly don't expect anyone to have a solution to this issue, but I will be thrilled if there is one.  I am posting primarily to see if anyone else is experiencing the same problem, and hopefully to gain the attention of a developer who can hopefully institute a fix.

    Sounds like a ruined iTunes install iTunes require a number of services running if an overzealosch firewall or rights settings or "optimisme" program stopped any of those what you exp happens

  • IPhone Does Not Appear in iTunes

    Hi! My iPhone 3GS does not appear in iTunes. It is recognised by Windows. It is recognised by iTunes in my desktop PC, but the problem is when I use my Samsung NC10 portable notebook.
    I am using Windows XP Home, version 2002, with SP3.
    iTunes is version 9.2.0.61
    So far I have followed suggestions in:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495
    including re-installing iTunes, resetting iPhone, checking that required services are running, stopping & starting services. I have used msconfig to see if I couls identify any conflicts but no success.
    I used iTunes diagnostics, and it answered "no iPhone, iPad, iPod found"
    I DO get an error when I start iTunes:
    "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please re-install iTunes" However, the Samsung NC10 does not have a CD/DVD drive, so I am assuming this is the cause of this error.
    The iTunes diagnostic outut is as follows:

  • Downloaded audio book on my iphone does not appear in itunes library and i cannot update iOS without transfering it to library

    Downloaded audio book to my iphone does not appear in my itunes library and i cannot update iOS without transfering it to library

    You should be able to copy it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
    Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store, so you may want to take a backup copy of it when you've copied it over to your computer

  • Ipod 160g does not appear on itunes but it appears on windows when in disk mode

    my ipod 160 g does not appear in itune (disk mode or not) but it appears in windows as IPOD (F:) only when it's in disk mode. I tried reseting it by holding the menu and center button it stop but then it goes back to the apple logo screen and stay on untill the battery dies and nothing else happens how can I reset it to is factory settings?

    When you connect it in Disk Mode, leave it charging the iPod Battery till Full Charge.
    In the meantime, 30 minutes or so into the charging, ( I just want the Ipod to have sufficient power for any harddisk Operation)
    go to Window Explorer (or My Computer),
    Select the Ipod, right click properties, ->tools->error checking->Check Now->fix error
    After the error fixing (may take a while but then you still have to wait till the battery charging is complete.)
    Disconnect the iPod from the PC.
    Antivirus has a tendency to freeze Itunes sync Operation with Ipod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your Ipod filesystem, so when iTunes cant read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
    My suggestion.
    Connect your Ipod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete. - Done above
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your Ipod to the PC
    When Itunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
    When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
    Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well, since you got such a huge library.
    When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
    Good Luck! and have a Nice Day!

  • Since update 11.1.4.62, my iphone does not appear in iTunes at all.  How can I fix that?

    Hi,
    I updated iTunes this morning and now my iphone, ipad do not appear in iTunes. 
    I tried unplugging the usb cable and but it still does not work.  I tried powering off my iphone but it does not connect.
    my husband has the same problem with his ipad with his pc.  He did the same update this morning.
    Anybody has an idea?

    I had the same problem and tried some of the fixes describing Apple Mobile Devise settings etc. it didn't work.
    What did work was uninstall iTunes and othe various Apple apps and then reinstall with the latest version of iTunes from Apple. All my playlist, music, setting remained intact and it works like a charm.

  • After updating my iPhone 4S to IOS6 my iPhone does not appear in iTunes.

    After I updated my iPhone 4S to IOS6, I experienced the following issues.
    1. My iPhone would not connect to WIFI, even though the WIFI icon on my iPhone indicated that it was. This in it self cost me $239.00 in excess data usage. I have since got the WIFI working by resetting my iPhone.
    2. Since I have fixed the WIFI issues, I can not connect to iTunes to restore from backup. My iPhone does not show up in iTunes either via USB or WIFI.
    So my iPhone has non of my music, photo's, apps or settings.
    So if anyone has a solution to my issues please let me know.
    Cheers.

  • IPhone does not appear in iTunes - Mac / Lion

    Hello all ,
       Well the title says it all - it is specific to iTunes though, iPhoto recognizes my iPhone and imports photos without issue. I have done all known Apple procedures, trouble shoots - everything. I have the latest iTunes and am about to re-install it - we'll see if that works. In the mean-time, any ideas ? Thanks a lot !
    Charles

    It is not recognized at all, or you just cannot see it. In the newer version of iTunes, the device pane does not display by default. You need to either go to the box in the upper left corner and select to view the menu bar, after that select View to Show the Sidebar. It will then look like the older version of iTunes and you can select the iPhone.
    If this is not where you are having a problem, then you can check one of these support doucments, depending on your OS.
