When i connect my iphone to my imac, itunes opens but my itunes is not there.  My wife has recently added herself to the computer
and her itunes appears but i cannot find my itunes?

Not really! Anyhow, what do you want to achieve. The only things you can access in your iPad outside of using iTunes are photos and videos. [Locate the iPad as any other external device through Windows Eplorer or Finder and dig through the folders.]
You are fortunate that iTunes opens when you connect the iPad since many other users have difficulty in achieving this. It is from there that you can manage what you want synced to the iPad.

  • TS1501 Image Capture does not launch when I connect my iPhone to my iMac and open iPhoto. No "Prefernces" is offered under Image Capture.  I cannot import photos to iPhoto.

    Can't import photos from iPhone to iPhoto.  Image Capture does not launch when iPhone is connected to my iMac and iPhoto is open.  There is no "Preferences" option offered to click when in Image Capture.

    This helped me. It is advice I found from a user named Carlosmara. First make sure iPhoto is closed and your iPhone is not connected. Then, as Carlosmara stated in his post,
    "Go to your Library/preferences and delete the file com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    IPhoto should recognized the iPhone again."
    The file in question is under your user folder.
    I then restarted my mac and plugged in the iPhone so that it would sync. After the sync, when I opened iPhoto, my iPhone was recognized and I could download the photos perfectly.
    Hopefully this will help you as it helped me

  • When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically

    When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically, even though I have the "open iTunes when this phone is connected" option checked. I'm on the latest Snow Leopard with iTunes 10.4 and use an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.4.  I think the problem began with the latest iTunes update.

    Found the answer in another discussion! Here's what worked:
    "I also had the same problem, iTunes 10.4 wouldn't launch when connecting iPhone 3GS.
    I unchecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected", restarted, launched iTunes and connected iPhone, rechecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected".  I was asked if I wanted to install iTunes helper and said yes.  All works again."

  • When i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs

    when i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs. Take in mind this is my first time to sync with this laptop(HP 15 ENVY) and as well my laptop is just brand new. just got it a week ago. so how do i fix this prob. and also when i open my itunes store and then view my account it says error occurred either debug it through Microsoft visual studio or close program. I tired copying all the .dll files to the itunes folder didn't help

    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.

  • Sometimes when I connect my iPhone to my iMac to sync, it does not download all my selected photos to my iPhone

    Lately when I connect my iPhone or iPad to my iMac to update files, when I select events and photos to add, iTunes does not import all events or all photos from these events.  It tells me that 672 photos were not imported and to check iTunes.  (10 Where in iTunes do I check to find out what the problem is in not importing these images?  (2) Why is iTunes not importing all selected events from my photos or skipping (not importing) selected photos?

    i figured this out through other posts. simply turn your restrictions off and restart your phone. all apps should be open to you.

  • Why am I getting 2 images of each picture on iPhoto when I connect my iPhone to the iMac?

    I have been experiencing this problem for a while. However, it doesn't happen all the times.
    When I connect my iPhone (4s) to my iMac (running Yosemite), iPhoto pops up on screen, all the pictures from my iPhone displaying under "Devices" (i.e. the iPhone) are all duplicated, meaning each picture has 2 copies displaying. Therefore, I don't feel comfortable uploading them to the iMac, worrying that I may get 2 copies of everything taking up the memory.
    Appreciate if someone could help me resolve this problem. Thank you.

    Before you import unplug the iPhone and plug it back in.  That usually will remove the duplicate photos showing and import just one copy.

    Thanks for the above input from all. I found, regardless of updates and whatnot... that if I were importing photos from my phone via the USB connection, I had to make sure that in iTunes both "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" and Sync this iPhone over wifi were UNCHECKED.
    Open iPhoto after those options in iTunes correspond, and finally the duplicate issue stopped.

  • What will happen after disabling iCloud and connecting my iPhone to my iMac?

    Now that I disabled iCloud on my iPhone, indeed the data is still available on my iPhone.
    But now I tried to disable iCloud on my iMac, the data is lost.
    Is it safe to connect my iPhone to my iMac and will my data (from my iPhone) be restored on my iMac? Or will I los all data?
    Thanks in advance for your advice!

    The other 2 applications open like normal. All three give me info.
    Pages     ver.4.1          265.8MB
    Numbers ver. 2.1          89.5MB
    Keynote ver. 5.1.1        238.1MB
    They all list Apr 3 as the last time opened. That was when I upgraded to Mavericks. I certainly used pages and numbers since then as I have alot of my work files on this computer?
    Just very odd. I did find my original iWorks disc from when I bought the computer. I'm assuming i can reinstall it. Will try that. Thank you for all your help. Would still like to know what did happen?
