Hi Mileymarie,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The article below will help you troubleshoot the issue you are having with your iPhone connecting to your PC:
How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567
If an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is not recognized in iTunes on Windows, the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) may need to be restarted. Alternatively, you may see the following error when connecting your device:"This [device] cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device Service is not started."
This document explains how to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.
Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS)
Set the Apple Mobile Device Service Startup type to Automatic
Remove and reinstall iTunes and AMDS
I hope this information helps ....

I just updated to the latest version of itunes, n ow when I plug in my iphone, it says it cannot sync because "apple mobile device service is not started" this never happen before, what do I do??
The Apple Mobile Device Service is a part of sever programs that "help" iTunes on Windows. It may have been disabled in the Microsoft program, msconfig, or using a third party utility, such as CCleaner.
I would suggest trying to find and enable the service. To do so, click on the start button, click "run", and then type "msconfig" look for the iTunes Helper entry and make sure that it's enabled.
Additionally, there may be another service which you will have to enable. You can type something like "service.msc", (I'm not sure exactly) to see the "Services" control panel and look for it there.
If you can't find either, feel free to post here again.

When pluging my iphone into my computer I get the following message in itunes "This Iphone can not be used because the apple mobile device service is not started. Does anyone know how to fix this.
I think I remember hearing that if you quit iTunes with your device still connected, then open iTunes up again, it should work.

Not sure why only one particular phone is having this problem but this article will help you check and restart it if it's in fact not started: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567. Even if it is running, suggest you stop and restart it.
