Sorry, I meant the letters look "faded" not faed.

I have a G5 which I intend to keep.
Now that I have updated my iphone 4s to iOS 7.0.
I cannot add music to my iphone or upload photos to iphoto.
I have the last itunes 10.6.3. which was supported by apple.
itunes will not interact with my iphone on any level.
Apple made all the equipment I use.
Bentley and Ferrari etc do not stop making parts for their cars?
The least Apple could is.
A. Update itunes to run on a G5
Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
We buy apple why?
Quality.
Intuitive interface.
Stable software.
Design.
All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

My post on facebook this morning.
If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.

HT1386 Itunes will not detect any of my devices

Itunes will not detect any of my devices. Any suggestions? I've shut down and restarted, turned devices off and on. Not sure what else to do.

Hello, bone61.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below. Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver. If the issue persists try all remaining steps.

ITunes will not open on my iPhone with the new update 10/18/13

iTunes will not open on my iPhone after the new update 10/18/13. It opens on my iPad that also has the new update; just not my iPhone.

OK, so what troubleshooting steps have you taken? Have you taken the ones recommended in the User Guide? Exactly what HAVE you done thus far to help solve your problem?

Itunes will not recognize either my iphone or ipad any more since I've downloaded their latest update. I'm working with a Windows 8.1 computer. Can someone help please?

Itunes will not recognize either my iphone 5 or my ipad since I have downloaded the new Itunes upgrade on my Windows 8.1 system. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and none of that works. Can someone help with this?

I've uninstalled and reinstalled and none of that works.
Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

Itunes will not sync music to iphone

Since downloading IOS 5.1.1 my selected music in iTunes will not download to my iphone 3GS. Never had this problem before. The itunes library shows all the albums I want to sync checked off and even when I connect the iphone with the sync cable the songs will not be synced. I've looked at all settings and everything looks the same as it always has. I did get a new iphone 3GS recently to replace a stolen one but all settings remain the same other then the new software 5.5.1.
Help?

Somehow this was related to me having to purchase a new 3GS when my other was stolen. At the same time we bought a new iMac. When I set the iMac up for my wife I set up a 2nd user account for myself. In that account I synced my new 3GS. It had all my music on there. My Macbook, where I thought the music files were still residing, had music files which were "grayed" out. When I tried to play a song from that extensive list I got an error message that the song could not be played because the "original" file could not be found. So I turned on "File Sharing" on both computers and when my library showed up on my Macbook I copied and pasted all the songs to my Macbook's music library. I then had to go back and delete all the duplicated "grayed out" non-working files. I then synced my iphone to the new library and "voila" the music files had migrated.
There might have been an easier way to do this but I couldn't find it...and at least this worked!

If you have the latest version of iTunes you should not have to download the ipsw file separately as jalp suggests. iTunes will download it automatically.
This error (9) most often means that your antivirus or firewall (or router) is blocking access to Apple's servers. In rare instances it can also mean that the phone was hacked (or "jailbroken") to unlock it. If this is the case you must do a DFU restore, not Recovery Mode, as follows:
Reboot your computer
Disable your antivirus and firewall. If you has Kaspersky you may actually have to uninstall it, as it can never be turned completely off.
Connect the USB cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub. DO NOT connect the other end to the phone
Disconnect all USB devices except for mouse, keyboard and iPhone cable.
Launch iTunes
On the phone hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time for EXACTLY 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button. The screen should be black. If it has an Apple logo this means you held both buttons too long. Release the HOME button and do it again.
While holding the HOME button connect the free end of the cable to the phone.
After a short while iTunes should recognize a phone in "recovery mode" (iTunes doesn't know the difference between DFU and Recovery modes, but the phone does)
Release the HOME button and don't touch the phone or the computer until the process completes or you get an error message. Ignore any displays on the phone.
If the error recurs the phone was probably messed up when it was hacked. This is not a hardware problem, or if it is, it isn't one you can fix.
You can try repeating these steps with a different computer and a different cable. If that fails also the phone is probably not repairable.

Have literally tried everything and iTunes will not detect iPhone

Just bought a new macbook and am having some serious issues with iTunes.... My iPhone was detected the first time i plugged it in, but now it will not detect it. As soon as i plug my phone in, iPhoto pops up but iTunes does not. When i open iTunes, my phone does not show up. I have done all the troubleshooting, restarted both phone and laptop, re-installed iTunes (when i did this, it worked again for one time, then when removed and re-connected it failed to detect it again)
Everytime i plug it in it charges, but iTunes will not find my phone. someone please either help me or shoot me because its driving me INSANE!!!!!!! i followed every step that apple says to do and have also looked at other peoples answers and nothing is fixing this!!!
thanks in advance

try if the suggestions in this thread work for you: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11434988&#11434988.
