TS1363 iTunes does not start when I connect iTouch by USB.
This is on Windows 7. It did connect on Vista before upgrade. Sync occurs if I start iTunes manually. iTouch does appear in both iTunes and Windows Explorer. How fix?
Thanks to all who replied. It turns out that, as you suggested, for some reason the iTunes Helper applet wasn't there. Did a reinstall, and now all works fine. So now I know that if I never have this problem again, that will be my first stop.
As for the other suggested that were made, these are all great suggestions and these are steps I had already taken in troubleshooting the problem. I didn't mention that, so I am glad to have this documented if anyone one else does a search and is looking for an answer. By all means, be sure you do what the other folks said first, and if they don't work, then go for the iTunes Helper applet. That did it for me.

ITunes does not start when I connect iPad
Until about a month ago, everything worked perfectly. When I connected my iPad to my MacBook Pro, iTunes started automatically and then started the sync with my iPad, just as I had set it to do. About a month ago, however, iTunes would not start automatically. I have to manually start iTunes. Once I do, then everything syncs normally, no problem. I have checked, and the check box in iTunes is checked "Open iTunes when this iPad is connected." I tried a general reset of the settings on my iPad. Nothing changed. iTunes says it is the most current version (I just checked) and my iPad says it has the latest available iOS version.
Any suggestions? I can live with this like it is, but if there is a problem, I'd like to correct it before iOS 5 comes out.Thanks to all who replied.

ITunes does not open when ipod connected
Since installing the 1.1 update, iTunes does not open when I connect my nano to the computer. Both computer and iTunes (when I manually open it) recognize the nano, so no big deal. Just wondering how to make iTunes automatically open.
Sometimes the Preferences get corrupt - if you set them off and then back on that sometimes clears the problem.

Why my itunes does not launch when i connect my iphone to my mac air?
why does my iTunes not open automatically when i connect my iphone to my Mac Air?
OK ... I'm going to answer my own question. I checked the box in iTunes PREFS "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" then went back to the DEVICES screen, iPhone summary, then unplugged the iPhone, and then back to iTunes PREFS and re-checked that box, then quit iTunes. Then I plugged the iPhone back into the computer and Voila! iTunes opens and syncs! Why? Who knows?

When i connect my ipod touch via usb cable it does not appear in itunes. The screen is frozen with a picture of itunes an arrow and a ubs cable. What does this mean?
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Itunes does not start automatically when I plug in my iPhone. When I start it manually, it never recognizes the phone although it does ask if I want to download pictures etc. Many albums have no art work that use to. iTunes completely unresponsive to the mouse.
Hi billm1013,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. If your iPhone isn't being recognized in iTunes, and/or iTunes isn't responding to your mouse when the iPhone is connected, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

ITunes not Starting when iPhone connected
I just got an iPhone 3G and installed iTunes 9.0.
When I connect my iPhone to sync, iTunes does not start. I get the box:
Camera connected
Select the program to launch for this actiona
Canon CameraWindow
Microsoft Scanner and Camera Wizard
If I manually start iTunes, I can see my iPhone but no Music or Movie subfolders under the device. And I can't drag any music from my library to the iPhone.
Is there a conflict with my camera software or should it just work this way? I tried to uninstall all camera software but without success.
I have gotten some music on the iPhone from syncing, but not all that I want.
Thanks for the help.
