Update iTunes before or after updating iPhone?

I can't seem to find this answered anywhere on Apple's site.
I'm on iTunes 7.5. When I plug in my phone and check for updates it says 1.1.3 is available for download.
Is it safe to run the update from 7.5 or should I install 7.6 first and then mount the iPhone?
Presumably 7.6 just adds the movie rental capability? Can I do without it altogether and still have 1.1.3?
tbh I may wait on 1.1.3 if there's a problem with order of sms messages, but the new features look worthwhile, especially if some bugs in Google maps have been fixed.
Thanks for any advice

Yes, it is safe to update your phone using iTunes 7.5.
The update supposedly requires at least iTunes 7.5 or above however I used iTunes 7.4.2 and everything worked fine.
If you decide to update iTunes to 7.6 I recommend you update your QuickTime first to 7.4 then iTunes. As always repair permissions both before and after the install if you are on the Mac OS.

IPhone 4 isn't visible in Devices in iTunes before or after Restore.

I did a full Restore and I can see that it is communicating with iCloud but is not listed under Devices in iTunes. When I plug it into a USB cable, it does not charge but I know the cable works because it will charge when plugged into an A/C outlet.

I can't help, but I just noticed several people having the same problem (that's why I'm looking). Wonder if it's something with the new version of iTunes. I have a 3GS, but I've seen people posting this problem with 4 and 3GS. I found something at apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/#section_5 -- did everything it said to, but no help. Good luck!

ITunes went blank after restoring iPhone

anyong know how to fix this problem?

is there anything i can do to fix this problem?
Not sure at this stage, but I'm keeping an eye out.
In the meantime, if you've got the time, would you mind submitting a bug report to the Apple folks? Here's a link to the iTunes product feedback form:

What have you tried so far?
Different USB port?
Different iPod cable (if possible)
Reboot the computer and open iTunes before plugging in the iPhone?

Have either of you had any luck with this issue. It began happening to me today when I was trying to purchase music on iTunes. I have purchased music and games in the past and have had no problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Check your system for possible Malware. But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
(Do not use your own Anti-virus to SCAN)
Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
To start your computer in safe mode
Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.

The itunes store app on the iphone 4s does not appear on the iphone at all so i can't purchase any media. I have done all the updates on the iphone and in itunes. This happened right after i did the latest iphone update. HOW CAN I GET THE ITUNES BACK?

after doing all the latest updates to both my iphone 4s and itunes the itunes store app on the iphone just dissapeared. Now i can't purchase any media. How can i get itunes store app back on my iphone?

If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes being set 'off' ?

The iphone is not storage/backup device.
The sync is one way - computer to iphone.
The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

Try unsyncing the sone and then resyncing. That works sometimes. Sometimes restoring from backup works. Other times nothing seems to work.. Yuo are not alone since iOS5 and iTunes 10.5/6.

I went to do the latest update on my iphone 4s, and it said to connect to itunes so I did and continued to click restore and then it updated my phone through itunes. Then after about 40 minutes of it updating it still has the connect to itunes screen on. It won't go away and I have tried restarting and turning off my phone various ways various times.

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

IPhone went bad after software update - iPhone 5 is now stuck on Itunes connect and has vertical lines

iPhone went bad after software update - iPhone 5 is now stuck on Itunes connect and has vertical lines.
I found a video on youtube with similar issues - http://youtu.be/Xuuqxx18-bA
EVERYTHING HAS BEEN TRIED: Restore, Reboot, Recycle, Replacing Cables, etc....
I don't have Apple Care, what to do? Spend more money and buy a new phone?

Here is another person who has a problem with the iPhone 5 screen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc1ZPWSA8dc and they have just received them NEW!!!!!
I myself, two days ago purchased a 2nd hand iPhone 5 that was advertised as having a line of squares at the bottom of the screen. I Googled it and found people saying it was a screen issue and to replace the screen, so I did this and it is still happening with a new screen.
I am starting to dislike Apple intensely after reading forum posts and watching videos where people are asking for help and telling us about issues that they are having with their phones.
Why is Apple getting it so wrong with their updates and manufacturing that they are completely destroying iPhones that cost a lot of money and then expecting the owner to purchase another phone unless they are still in warranty.
Apple you should be going out of your way to put things right for people but instead there is a wall of silence over so many of the issues destroying peoples phones.
SHAME ON YOU!

After running the recent update Iphone not detected by itunes

After running the recent iOS update on my iphone4, itunes no longer detects my iphone when I plug into my USB port. I ran the troubleshooter and got no relief. The phone also charges much slower from the USB than it used to but still seems to charge about the same when plugged into a separate power source. The phone also does not indicated it is charging anymore even when plugged into a separate power source.

Duh Norm. Didn't find first time through.
That's why you have 32k points and I have close to zero.
Thanks much.

Hi to all,
I tried to update my nephew iphone 4 version 4.3.4 (8k2), I did back-up everything before attempting to update and the result when I click down-load and update, it does not update instead it says, itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet. I did check my wire-less connections and the connection from my PC to wire-less is hundred percent okay. I did search using google.com to confirm and my connections is good. Is there any problem regardings my firewalls or any help will be appreciated. Thanks
