When I connect my ipad to my computer it goes to IPhoto not ITunes

I am trying to transfer FileMaker databases to FileMaker Go and instead of going to ITunes when I connect, it goes straight to IPhoto? Anyone know how I fix that?

Launch iPhoto and go to iPhoto>Preferences>General>Connecting camera opens>no application. iPhoto should not launch now when you connect the iPad. Quit iPhoto.
Launch iTunes and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices> and uncheck the box that says Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically - if the box is checked. Click OK and quit iTunes.
Also launch System Preferences and go to Users & Groups>Your Account>Log In Items and make sure that there is a checkmark in the box next to iTunes Helper in order to select it as a log in item. Close System Preferences.
Restart your Mac and try again and see if iTunes opens when the iPad is connected.

When i connect my ipad to my computer via usb, the latest version of itunes states that the mobile version cannot be started because of an unknown error

i have just downloaded and installed the latest version of itunes. Now when i connect my ipad to my computer via USB, itunes states that the apple mobile device service cannot be started because of an unknown error (1058). The connection worked fine with the previous version of itunes.

so then i tried intsalling a stand alone if apple mobile device support (amds) but still it doesnt work
Did you get an error message when you did the standalone AMDS install? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

It looks like the card may be the problem, and your best bet is to try the Card Reader - this will make the card accessible by the Finder and you may be able to drag the pics off to the desktop or, at worst, try recover the pics with an app like MediaRecover

Just updated to IOS 7 and two issues: First when I connect my iPhone to my computer I get this error message:itunes was unable to provider data from sync services".

Just updated to IOS 7 and two issues:
First when I connect my iPhone to my computer I get this error message:itunes was unable to provider data from sync services". I'm not sure what this really means...
The second issue is when I try to select "Manually Manage Music"
The iPhone "My iPhone" is synced with another iTunes libary on "MY-PC". Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
So... I don't want to do that, but I do what to be able to Manage my music. I'm not sure what it means by being synced to another iTunes unless it means to an older version of itunes?
Anyone have any ideas?

I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it.

IOS 5 seems to work, but when I connect the ipad to my macbook, i get the message that itunes was interrupted when restoring. I try to restore again and I get the message "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-50)." What should I do?

iOS 5 seems to work on my ipad, but apparently something went wrong when restoring. I lost music and movies, and when I connect the ipad to my macbook, I get the message that itunes was interrupted when restoring. I try to restore again and I get the message "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-50)." What happened and what should I do?

I have had the same issue since day 1 of the ios5 installation. I always hit "Cancel" and then the iPad eventually shows up again in iTunes. Then a few hours later, I get the same message again. Annoying, but I've not found a way around it.

Hi Eddie A.,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that iTunes is becoming unresponsive when you connect your iPhone. In this situation, I would recommend the steps in the following article to isolate and resolve this situation.

HT201263 I have the ipad 1, and I tried to reboot it but when I connected my ipad to the computer it did nothing. When it is charging the apple logo simply flashes on and off again. It is trying to start up but can't. Help!

I have an ipad and the only thing it does when you plug it in to the wall is flash the start up apple logo. It will not reboot because itunes can not reconginze it. I have tried holding the home and power button's together but it doesn't help.

I'm sorry, you are correct I am trying to restore my ipad because it stopped working.   We thought the battery was dead so we plugged it into the wall charger. All it does when plugged in is flash the apple logo like it is going to start up and then shut off. It repeats this every few seconds while it is plugged into the wall. I let it charge overnight and still nothing.
When I hold the power button and the home button down together while the ipad is plugged into the wall, it does flash then after I release the power button the connect to itunes screen comes on.   But when I connect it to my computer it goes blank.   itunes does not recongnize my ipad when I plug it into the computer. I have used the same cord to plug in my other devices and itunes recongnizes them so it isn't the usb cord.
It seems as if my system has crashed and I think this may just be an apple service trip for me. But thanks so much for the advice.   =D

When I connect my IPad to the computer my computer will not recognize the device as being plugged in

I'm trying to connect my IPad to both of my computers. Each time I plug it into the USB port I get nothing. The computer doesn't recognize that a device is plugged in. I have tried re-installing ITunes, as recommended, but I still can't get the computers to pick up my IPad. What is happening?

Recently purchased a scanner which I connect my iPad to. everything scanned goes into iPhoto. I purchased FileApp Pro to place scanned items into files. I still can't move the scanned items to a file. Help!

Scanning items into iPad. Scanned items go directly to iPhoto. Purchased FileApp Pro to create file folders on iPad. Still cannot move items from iPhoto to file folder. Help?

Is this a NAS type of setup (of which I know very little)? Mine is not a response based upon strong technical knowledge but iTunes seems to have problems with those. Just about everybody has issues with iTunes but you say it is not fit for the purpose. What is that? I bet for 99% of people it does. Not everybody has 8TB collections they are trying to use with a RAID structured external server. iTunes is really a mass consumer piece of software. Yes, many people have expanded beyond internal drives, but NAS arrangements seem to add levels of complexity beyond a direct external drive that is Mac formatted and at most served by an Apple brand wireless router which I suspect is probably how everything is tested. Anything more is fortuitous in terms of support. Except that you say the library files are on the external drive too it sounds to me like the server is asleep when you say it cannot find files and then suddenly can when you go to find one.

When I plug my device into my computer, it goes directly to the ITunes store. How do i get back to the main page with all my device info

How do i get back to my device home page

I had the same problem with mine when I connect the ipod when it's full charged and turn on. The problem never happen when the ipod is charging or i'ts full charged and it's turn off. So just turn off your ipod down and connect to your mac again.
