To clarify, the problem in my case was a corrupted OD database. Your case may be different. Check your SMTP logs for further clues.

Microsoft Forefront Server Protection for Exchange Registration Service does not start automatically

Hello,
I am having an issue when I start my TMG 2010 machine:
(*TMG 2010 + Forefront protection for Exchange + Exchange Edge server role, acting like a SMTP relay and Antispam filter)
The service "Microsoft Forefront Server Protection for Exchange Registration Service"
does not start, it is set to "Manual".
I tried to find some information about which services should be started and which should not, but I cannot find such information, not even in Technet (my fault probably).
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Have you received any errors in event logs when
you started the Microsoft Forefront Server Protection for Exchange Registration Service?
Based on my research,
Microsoft Forefront Server Protection Controller service is a dependency of the Microsoft Forefront Server Protection Registration service and the Microsoft Forefront
Server Protection Registration service is a dependency of the Microsoft Exchange Transport service.
The Microsoft Forefront Server Protection Registration service normally only runs for a brief time (less than a minute) when FPE initializes. It then shuts
down and does not need to be running for transport scanning to occur.
You can refer to the link below:

Best regards,

I bought my ipad 2 from a friend I am trying to connect to my itunes on my computer and it will not recognize it. It keeps telling me that IPad cant be used because apple mobile device service is not started. can you help

I bought my IPad 2 from a friend. I have reset to clear all of his information out. I am trying to connect it to my computer to sync my itunes and I keep getting the message that my IPad can't be used because Apple Mobile Device Service is not started can anyone help with this?

I cannot find "Other" devices. I found Apple Mobile Device under Universal Bus Controllers but cannot see "recovery mode" or any other status. I use Windows Vista.
When I try to restart Apple Mobile Device Service I get the following message: "The Apple Mobile Device Service on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs". What does this mean?
During the last 48 hours I was able to see my iPad in iTunes only one time during many attemnpts to connect . I haven't been able to see it during the llast several attempts.
Any suggestions? The standard suggestions have not worked: i.e. stop then start AMDS; tuurn off iPad and PC, then restart both and reconfrom iPad to PC; reload iTunes.

Sync problem, iTunes says: "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started."

Trying to sync my phone to update because it wont let me update apps on the phone itself. When I plug in to iTunes I'm getting a message saying "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." How do I fix this?

On my registered iTunes computer, the following message appears every time one plugs in a device and refuses to load said device to be synced: "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". They are all registered. Help

On my registered iTunes computer, the following message appears every time one plugs in a device and refuses to load said device to be synced: "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". Each device has been registered onto this account and this computer, and all have worked finely in the past. I am so confused as to why now seemingly without reason, none of our apple devices (one iPod, two iPhones) are allowed to have music and other material downloaded onto them. Also, as a side note, they still are charged by plugging them into the computer, however they do not even show up on the left-hand sidebar in iTunes.
It should also be noted that for my iPhone it does not allow for the new update software to be uploaded; it just says that an error has occurred, nothing more.

Error message saying this device cannot be used because Apple mobile device service is not started. What does this mean and how do I start service....had these devices for over a year now??

When I tried to sync my iphone 4 and ipad in iturnes, an error message popped up saying this device cannot be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started! What does that mean and how do I start service? I've had these devices for over a year and update and sync regularly and have never seen this message before!

I got that message yesterday. I'm new at this so don't know if this is the correct solution but it worked for me. I reset my iPod by holding the 2 buttons down until the apple appears AND I restarted my computer. After that everything worked.

Thanks Ryan Sensei. I followed your link. Though I didn't have any Megaupload software installed on my computer, I saw a related article on http://senseiphone.com/fix-apple-mobile-device-not-started_itunes-0315129/ which was my actual problem and fixed it perfectly.
