Answering my own question this time since posting, found similar query and fixed it.
Went to control panel in Windows 7, printers and devices, down at the bottom shows the device
right clicked and chose troubleshoot. Turned out that the device drivers had not installed and the troubleshooter did
that automatically. Problem solved. Then the device showed up in itunes.

TS1538 My iPhone 5s is not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Last night I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and since that time I have been unable to sync my phone with my HP computer. I have tried all suggestions in the help section and it still will not sync. What should I do next?

I had the same problem , Just remove itunes and related components from the control panel. it worked for me.
I got that information from apple support.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.

I understand that your iPhone 5 is not recognized by iTunes 11.2 on Windows 8 pc after you updated your device iOS to iOS 7.1.1.

Hey there Jordan_z1a,
It sounds like you are unable to sync your phone to iTunes on your Windows 7 PC and you feel you have isolated the issue to the Apple Mobile Device Support driver is not installed. Use this section of the following article to verify whether or not its installed, and for instructions on how to install it if needed:

3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
iOS devices require Apple Mobile Device Support, which should be automatically installed with iTunes. To verify whether it is installed, follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below.
Windows XP: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Open the "Add or Remove Programs" control panel and verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Click "Uninstall a program" (or if using Windows Vista's Classic View of the Control Panel, click "Programs and Features"). Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right corner, click the magnifying glass, type Control Panel,and press Return. Click "Uninstall a program". Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is visible in the list of currently installed programs.
If Apple Mobile Device Support is not listed, remove iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Application Support, and then reinstall iTunes. Follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below:
Reinstall iTunes for Windows XP
Reinstall iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
If after reinstalling iTunes Apple Mobile Device Support is still not installed, follow steps in Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows.
If this does not resolve the issue, try starting from the top of the article and working your way down as needed.

my iphone 4 is not recognized by itunes when i connect to it and tells me that the phone is in recovery mode, wants me to restore to factory settings. after i agree , an alert with error 9 stopped the sync. the phone wont start

Thanks for the response. There is no cloud icon next to them. All of the songs play on the phone still and no song was purchased through iTunes. I added them manually and tried to remove them manually. According to my iTunes they've been removed but they are still on my phone and working.

Did you try recovery mode? Hold down the home button as you connect it to iTunes. iTunes should pop up a window that says "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode" and give you the option to restore.

Make sure you follow these instructions completely with the phone disconnected from the computer. After the reinstallation, reconnect the phone and it should load the new USB driver.

IPhone 4 is not recognized by iTunes 10.1.2

I am running Windows 7 on my PC. My iPhone 4 was syncing perfectly fine until I updated to 10.1.2. Since the update none of my Apple products (iPad, iPhone 3g, iPhone 4) have been recognized by iTunes. This rules out the device as I highly doubt that all three devices would experience the exact same hardware issue. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes but to no avail. I have also tried restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service, and that didn't work either. I am lost as to what else to try as I have not been able to sync my devices since the end of January. Any other suggestions?

Here's Apple's support document on this subject, note in the last part that iTunes must be uninstalled & then reinstalled in a certain order:
