This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started.
When I plug into my computer and try to sync with iTunes, I get this message. "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." I can not find away to start the Apple Mobile Device service. I synced last on 2/4/12 with no problem. How do I start this service so I can sync my iPod?

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.Try Here > AMDS > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567
