  • I'm getting an error message 'Apple Mobile Device service is not started' when trying to sync my ipad to my desktop computer

    I'm getting an error message 'Apple Mobile Device service is not started' when trying to sync my ipad to my desktop computer. This usually works fine, so I don't know what I did to keep it form working.

    Are you using Windows? This tells you how to restart the AMDS for Windows.

  • TS4123 This is not correct solution. I have fresh copy of Windows 7 64 bit and I have the same problem.  Autorun only shows the Bonjour service.  It started when try to sync more than one iphone.

    This is not correct solution. I have fresh/new copy of Windows 7 64 bit and I have the same problem. 
    Autorun only shows the Apple Bonjour service.  It started when try to sync more than one iphone over WiFi. I have two iphones and an iPad. I turned off syncing over WiFi and still has high CPU utilization. One of the CPU's is pegged at 100%.  It is the AppleMobileDeviceService.exe process.

    For the record, I then followed the suggestion of MarcDCMB in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4291206 of just manually restarting the Apple Mobile Device service in Windows services.msc once each time after starting iTunes and the service no longer hogs CPU after that service restart.  Not too painful as a work-around, and apparently an effective one, but clearly not a solution to the problem.  Again, as above, all the other solutions didn't work for me and I have no conflicting software as far as I can tell. So you'd have to say this Apple's problem.
    Also FTR, I am still on the 5.2.0.6 version of the Apple Mobile Device Support MSI and I don't know if that is relevant to this work-around working but my sense is that it is NOT relevant.  I'll report back on this thread if I re-upgrade and the problem returns in spite of the service-restart approach.

  • Opmn service does not start when try to start Oracle BI Services

    Hi ,
    I was able to install OBIEE 11g on my laptop and it worked fine for two days. Today when I try to login to rpd and type my user name and password I get the error that my user name and password is not correct. I tried to restart the machine and now I am not able to start opmn service.
    When I do Start>Oracle Business Intelligence (1)>Start BI Services, the script run and two command line windows open and about 10 minutes later get the last line that server started in RUNNING mode, but some how Oracle Process Manager (instance) service does not start. It started two days ago when I was able to login to OBIEE 11g.
    If I try to go to OBIEE 11g Home page I get this error "Error 500- Internal server error from RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol- HTTP/1.1: 10.5.1 500 Internal server error
    Any Idea how to fix this one.
    Thanks

    Maybe you need to tick the "use fully qualified names" check box and make sure that you have the schema object created (as a "folder" between the database and the tables in the physical layer).

  • Apple mobile device service not started

    Each time i try to sync my iphone to itunes it keeps on saying "apple mobile device service not started"
    I know how to start it and everything its that when i start it it says "Windows could nt start the Aplle Mobile Device service on local computer"
    I have the newest itunes and i have windows 7

    first I would check the event viewer for into about what goes wrong that cause the service to fail
    if this don't give a clear image about what the problem is
    then I would uninstall itunes and resinstall it
    if that didn't help I would ask questions about solve the problem in the itunes for windows forum  where people wise in the ways of itunes would be more likely to read your post

    when i plug my iphone to my computer it says, apple mobile device has not started. why?

    Your computer could possibly be running in selective startup mode where any nonessential services are disabled temporarily until a restart.  If that isn't the case you can check out http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567 for information on restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows computers.

    Not sure what you mean by enable? You can access your iTunes account from the iTunes menu bar, click Store / View My Account.
    If it's been disabled >  Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons"  appears
