Syncing i-Phone Not Recognized by iTunes but only by iPhoto

After updating software, tried to update my i-phone 3G, iphoto recognized it and downloaded the photos, but iTunes did NOT. I want to sync to upload the new songs I purchased on iTunes on my MacBook Pro, but my iPhone isn't recognized by my iTunes on this computer. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried the this part of the omne link you post:

    In rare circumstances, your device may be recognized after reinstalling iTunes, but after you restart your Mac, the device may not be recognized again. If this happens, and you are using Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard), please follow the steps in this article.

    Hi pedro109,
    If your iPhone is recognized by the computer, but not seen by iTunes, you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service, as described in this article -

    Once iTunes recognizes the iPhone you should be able to sync it with iTunes. See this article

  • IPhone not recognized by iTunes, but listed in "My Computer"

    Hi,
    I have exhaustively searched the other threads as well as Apple support. I am running Vista 32-bit. I just received a replacement phone and I have literally never had so much as a hiccup recognizing, syncing, etc. on my laptop which is the only computer I have ever used with an iPhone. When I plug in my new phone initially, a pop up appears stating that Device driver is being installed. It will then appear in "My Computer" as a camera, but does not appear in iTunes.
    I have un-installed and re-installed iTunes.
    I have un-installed and re-installed the driver for iPhone. When I go to the device manager and attempt to install device driver manually, the message appears "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to intall it. The phone is recognized on my desktop computer and my iPod is recognized on my laptop. So I am assuming it must be something that is setup on my computer that I need to delete,modify, add, etc. Please someone help.

    When I start ITunes and plug in my IPhone, ITunes will recognize the IPhone as normal, after about a minute, my IPhone will disappear and disconnect from ITunes. I have the most current ITunes and IPhone versions, I have tried different USB cables and different USB ports with the same result. The IPhone will still be listed as a camera in My Computer but not recognized by ITunes. If I unplug the IPhone and plug it back in, ITunes will recognize it again but drop it after about a minute.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks
    It sounds to me like it could be something to do with some power saving mode you have on your computer, such as screen saver or some other power saving mode. Do you have a laptop or desktop PC? as I am more inclined to think that a laptop might cause it if it were running on battery.
    The power saving modes/screen saver etc should be in the Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click Power Options. In the power options box, have a look around in here and temporarily switch off the screen saver, and adjust the various power option values for the various parts of your computer, to the maximum length/or switch that option off so that it isnt used. After these adjustments, restart your computer and load iTunes up and see if the problem remains.
    I never put my iPhone in airplane mode when syncing and I have never had your problem. But if my suggestion doesn't work, then it might be worth trying Piperox13 suggestion.

  • Why is my iPod Nano not recognized in iTunes but charges?

    I have a Mac Book Pro and an original iPod Nano. I have old music on my Nano that I want to put on my comp, I have a program for that. But the thing is that even though when I plug in my Nano, it lights up and charges but it isn't recognized in iTunes. How can I fix this? Oh and my screen is broken so I can't reset anything from my iPod itself without like step by step direction because the click sound still works and I guess I can figure out what to do if you say like one click down or 2 clicks down... THANKS!!

    Otherwise, take the computer & iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • IPod Nano not recognized in iTunes but as hd in windows

    So after running all the so called fixes on this article:
    iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
    We are still not able to get this thing recognized by iTunes. My wife's 4g mini works fine, as well as my 80g 5g. I'm just thinking that this is a hardware issue. My buddy at an unnamed large chain retailer has had 12 of the 2nd gen Nanos come back to his store in the last week for the same issue Will not sync up in windows). Apple needs to get on the ball and get this fixed. My wife is ready to return it and wait for the Zune to come out, but i convinced her to wait to see what we get here.

    just turn on terminal services like in:

  • My ipod is not recognized by iTunes (but recognized by Windows)

    Hi everyone,
    I have bought a new ipod 30G 5th Generation. Initially, I have a 4G ipod and an itunes installed on my computer. I have updraged my itunes to v7 and pluged my new ipod 5G to my compuer. I can see the ipod on My Computer as a removable disk but iTunes don't recognize the ipod and don't have it on the Device list.
    Since I'm on iTunes v7, I have run the diagnostic module and in the log file I have this:
    Connected Device Information
    MONIPOD (F:\), iPod with video running firmware version 1.2.1
    Serial Number: 8N644RUDV9M
    Bus Speed: 61440
    The last connected iPod serial number: 4J527R2GTDS.
    It seems that iTunes is recognizing that I had a previous ipod. Does anyone know if Itunes is not recognizing my new ipod because another ipod was already registered on my computer ?
    Thank you.

  • Iphone is not recognized by Itunes but it is view by Windows 8.1, Iphone is not recognized by Itunes but it is view by Windows 8.1

    IPhone is view in the Computer, I have Windows 8.1 but Itunes doesent show the IPhone. I erased temporary files, stop and restarted Apple Mobile Device from Services, I check the Usbaapl64 file in the computer seems to be ok. Unistalled and reinstalled Itunes, but the problem is not solved.

    Your other phones were probably old enough that they worked with the version of iTunes you have. When you buy a device it requires the version of iTunes current at the time of purchase.  A new phone will require a new iTunes which won't run on your Powerbook.
    I didn't think iCloud backed up to a device, the device backs up to iCloud.  Are you sure you aren't simply seeing backups in the Cloud and not something actually on your phone?

  • Ipod Nano not recognized by itunes but appears on the explorer. Log message

    My ipod doesn't appear on itunes but is recognized by windows. It used to work before.
    I have found several answers to this problem but no one can't solve the problem : 5R, Terminal Service, Ipod Service, Restore, Reset, Usb, Last version of Itunes....
    With the last version of Itunes, I have launched the diagnotisc and the result is four green led.
    I have recorded the log file and into this one there are few message that show errors (I have copied only interesting messages):
    [SERVICE: 0x140,08:48:25 ERROR] Did not find first letter of stage
    [SERVICE: 0x980,08:51:21 INFO] Device 1 not in intermediate state. It appears to be truly mounted.
    [SERVICE: 0x980,08:51:21 INFO] File does not exist!
    [SERVICE: 0x980,08:51:21 INFO] [1] CreateFileW error 0x3

    [SERVICE: 0x980,08:51:21 INFO] [1] ReadDevicePreferences() failed!
    I can't understand these messages but I have the feeling that they have a relation with the hidden file Preferences store in ipod_control\device
    When I tried to open Preferences with "bloc note" of windows it doesn't work. Maybe this file is corrupted seen that I can open the file "SysInfo" which is in the same repertory. When I format the Ipod with FAT32, these files reappeared with the next power on and I have always same problem.
    Does anyone know if this file "Preferences" is readable with a valid iPOD?
    What mean "Did not find first letter of stage?" of the log message?
    Thanks for your answers,
    Nicolas

    If its brand new and doing this, return it with receipt.

  • Ipod not recognized in itunes but is in windows

    okay, what should i do here, i followed all the steps in the article on this on the support site, i reinstalled, disabled conflicting processes, every step in that article about if my ipod is recognized by windows but not itunes, what should i do now??? cuz i'm baffled, my ipod is flashing do not disconnect, and has the spinning icon in the top left corner indicating that it is doing something, is there anything i should do to get it recognized in itunes?

    Hi, I kind of have a similar problem. I have two Ipods. One is an Ipod video and the other is a 4GB ipod nano. And i'm having problems with the nano. My girlfriend once disconnected while it was playing on itunes. Since then i haven't been able to get it to work. I've tried everything. Windows won't recognize it and neither does Itunes or the updater. When I open the updater it says initializing and it freezes. Itunes wont read it at all, and windows, well when i go to "safely remove hardware" it comes up there it says "Apple Ipod USB devie". I'm not sure if its recognizing it at all. But it wont disconnect it. The nano itself works fine! Well actually when she disconnected it the nano wouldn't turn off. Until i connected back to the computer and restored it. And thats when it wouldnt' come up on my PC. If anyone can please help me, or has had the same problem and worked around it, any advice will be greatly appreciated . . .thanks

  • IPod Touch not recognized by ITunes, but IPhone is. What can cause only one device to not be recognized?

    I have tried reinstalling ITunes and resetting my IPod Touch. The computer recognizes the IPod Touch as a connected device, but ITunes doesn't. However, ITunes will recognize other devices that I plug in with the same usb cord. ITunes diagonistics only says that no device is plugged in whenever the IPod Touch is plugged in. What can cause this combination of problems, and how could I get around it?

    If you have iTunes 11 on the computer and are using the same cable that works with the iPhone then:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Try on another computer
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware preoblem
