TS1538 my iphone is no longer being detected in itunes can anyone help

HI ITUNES IS NO LONGER FINDING MY IPHONE CAN ANYONE HELP

I have had a 3GS for 2+ years.  After upgrading to IOS 4 (now 4.3.5) I began having problems.  In the past week, my screen went to the itunes logo and USB cable twice -- unprovoked -- just found it sitting there like that!  I connected to itunes and it did restore from a backup but it is a major inconvenience.  I am also searching for answers, but better back-up regularly!

  • HT1386 My Iphone 5 suddenly won't sync with Itunes, can anyone help me? I just downloaded the new Itunes, and now it won't recognize my phone

    It said that I had an update, so I updated  it and now my Iphone won't connect to Itunes. Please help!

    It has been shown there are problems with the latest update of iTunes and Windows computers. What you need to do is remove and reinstall iTunes, and make sure that you follow the steps in this support document exactly. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923. If you do not follow them exactly, you will just compound your problems. Once you do this, you should have no trouble having the phone recognized in iTunes.

    Not with your current user id.
    Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
    Really?
    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

    You need to do as provided. If no change after restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

    Nobody can know. You have not provided any system info or other technical details like what your PSD files actually contain, their color modes and a ton of other things. Either way, ask in the AI forum and provide the necessary info.

  • The iPod on my iPhone 4 won't stop shuffling songs. Can anyone help?

    The iPod on my iPhone 4 won't stop shuffling songs. Can anyone help?
    Thank you in advance for any replies.

    I do not know if this has any chance of working.
    Hold down the menu button on the iPhone until you get a speaking thing.... Then say, "Stop shuffle(ing)"
    I have no idea if this would work.

  • TS1538 I have just installed Windows 8.1 and now my ipad and iphone are not recognised in iTunes, can anyone help?

    Hi everyone,
    This is my first post so if I've made any mistakes please forgive me. I have recently upgraded from Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 8.1 Professional however, now my iPad and iPhone are not recognised in iTunes. I have checked Device Manager and the iPad is listed, I also asked it to update the driver but it informed me that I have the most up to date version. Can anyone help please?

    Hi Skydiver119,
    Many thanks for your prompt reply however, I found this post and it worked perfectly. I hope it helps other users.
    Plug your Ipad USB cable into USB port.
    Go to your Control Panel, click Hardware and Sound, then click Device Manager.
    Click on Portable Devices, and you should see Apple Ipad shown (or whatever apple device your using).
    Right-click the Apple Device your using, and choose Update Driver Software..
    Click "Browse my computer for driver software."
    Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer."
    Click the Have Disk button. (If the Have Disk option is not present, choose a device category such as Mobile Phone or Storage Device if listed, and click next. The Have Disk button should then appear.)
    In the "Install from Disk" dialog, click the Browse button.
    Use this window to navigate to the following folder:
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.
    Double-click the "usbaapl" file. (This file will be called "usbaapl64" if you have a 64-bit version of Windows. If you don't see "usbaapl64" here, or if there is no Drivers folder, look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. instead).
    Click OK in the "Install from Disk" dialog.
    Click Next and finish the driver-installation steps. Open iTunes to verify that the device is recognized properly.

    My IPod, Nano will no longer shuffle the tunes, instead it simply plays one tune over and over, can anyone help me fix this problem?

    It sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for instructions on turning it off.
