  • HT4623 what do I do when Itunes does not recognize my iphone?

    Last back up was in Jan. Went to back up and Itunes did not come up as normal. Opened Itunes and went to select iphone. Iphone not listed. I have deleted Itunes and re-installed program. Still no luck getting itunes to see my phone. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello Punono,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPhone was not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

    I have reset my iphone and made sure all updates have been done on my macbook pro and iphone. It was after updating my macpro that I plugged in my phone and went to itunes to backup phone and can't see the device anywhere! I have also done all the troubleshooting that apple.com recommended too...all except re-installing itunes!

  • Itunes will not recognize my iphone 5s and i need to reset to factory settings

    itunes will not recognize my iphone 5s and i need to reset to factory setting because the phone is locked and cant remember passcode

    Hi CMC08,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below will explain what to do if you forgot your passcode and need to restore your iPhone:
    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/ht1212
    Erase and restore
    If you can't remember your passcode, you'll need to erase your device, then use a backup to put your data and settings back on your device.
    Recovery
    Mode
    Use these steps if you've synced your device with iTunes.
    Use these steps if you have an iCloud account and have Find My iPhone turned on. 
    Use recovery mode if you can't sync or connect with iTunes and don't have an iCloud account.
    I hope this information helps ....

    my iTunes will not recognize my iPhone after iTunes was updated. what does that mean?

    Hello mzshay2u2,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I understand that you're unable to locate your iPhone within iTunes 12 on your Mac.  First, I'd like you to take a look at the screenshot below, as iTunes 12 changed the navigation of your Library.
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If you do not see your iPhone's icon there, then continue on to the link below.

  • ITunes does not recognize my iPhone 4-problem solved

    iTunes woudl not recognize my iPhone 4, and i finally figured it out why.  (I am W8)  Went to control panel, device manager, and expanded portable devices. I happened to have my iPhone plugged in to a USB port, and it showed up.  Clicked on the iPhone, clicked on the driver tab, and updated the driver.  Now it connects to iTunes.
    So apparently the driver in my iPhone 4 was the problem.  The TS1538 article above did not address this issue.  I still think it has something to do with the iTunes 11.1.1.11 update, because my phone and my wife's iPhone 4s worked before the update and didn't after the update.  My guess is this is the problem many are having right now.

  • ITunes will not recognize my iPhone 5s

    iTunes will not recognize my iPhone 5s.  I need it to, so I can choose the sync via WIFI.  Plus, I am unable to download iTunes by just using WIFI and my iPhone 5s.  I checked the Computer Manager areas and the settings appear correct.  My laptop runs on Windows 8.1.

    Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?
