Why don't my devices show up in itunes? I'm using a mac.

For some reason all of a sudden my iPad2 and my iPhone (first generation) no longer appear on itunes when I plug them in. How do I port music or sync them if they don't appear?

Find my iPod question - Why don't all devices show?

I have an iPad and two iPod Touch's, all running IOS5, with the iCloud setup etc under the one Apple/Cloud sign in. The Find my iPod/Pad app will only show the iPad and one iPod Touch - not two. The setup on the Touch's is identical, I have googled the 'g' key off my keyboard and done all the troubleshooting/support recommendations suggested. Anyone got any good ideas/soultions?

Does the one iPod correctly idenify its location in the Maps app?
Try resertting the iPOd. Nothing will be lost. It worked with my iPod
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Why doesn't my device show up on itunes?

When I sync my iphone and ipad to my macbook pro, I no longer get an itunes screen allowing me to set preferences. I just get the new itunes screen, which shows my devices syncing, but doesn't allow me to change anything on my devices. There's a bit of urgency because the calendars have disappeared from my ipad and I would like them back.
TIA

If you are using iTunes 11 and want the sidebar - go to the View Menu and select 'Show Sidebar' or keystroke - option-CMD-S.
This will now show your Devices as before.

Why don't my tags show up when re-saving a document that I previously tagged?

I love the idea of tags. I use them religiously in Lightroom to organize and recall my photos. The one thing that makes tags ineffective though is the amount of effort it takes to enter them. But being a true believer of the value I do it. That being said, the way Apple has implemented tags is driving me nuts.
I create a document
I click save
I enter a name and
I enter tags - BTY I wish I could expand the tagging window to see all the tags I have entered and all the tags that are available
Later I make changes to my document and I want to add tags so I selected save as
PROBLEM - All the tags that I previously saved with this document are gone. I have to renter them. This is horrible!
Why don't my tags show up when re-saving a document that I previously tagged? Is there anyway to get my Mac to recognize that I previously tagged this file and display my tags?
If not, APPLE PLEASE FIX SOON.

Adobe Lightroom issues are best posted in the Adobe forums - not an Apple issue to be addressed, even though it is occurring in a OSX 'Save Dialog'.

Do you still have the "Music Video" Smart Playlist in iTunes? If you right click on a video file, which normally shows up under "Movies" you can pick the video type of Movie, Music Video, or TV Show. When you select "Music Video" the video file drops out of the Movies section and if the Music Video playlist is present will show up there.
You might have deleted that playlist so it wouldn't be on the iPod either.
So create a Smart Playlist where the rule is Video Kind IS Music Video...

Why isn't my device showing up on either the sidebar or upper right hand corner of the screen? This has only occurred after updating to the new ITunes update?

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear? The computer seems to recognize it as a camera device, rather than a mass storage device. Does this have anything to do with the problem? When plugged in, a window pops up asking which photo program you'd like to use, and if you cancel, that's it. Even if you try to open a photo program, and download your photos off of the ipod, it still won't show up in itunes.

Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

Since you got a new MBP, does it have Lion or Mountain Lion, and what version of iTunes?
If current it should see the iPhone. If it will not, try attaching in recovery mode, start iTunes, connect the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPhone connect the dock connector end of the cable to the iPhone...should put it in recovery mode and iTunes should then see it.
Don't go to restore from backup since you don't have that on this computer. You can backup and update the iOS.

if you can generate a production order then you can always confirm it according to SAP PP logic.
we use variant configuration for the manufacturing of complex products. once the component quantities and
operation are selected for a particular variant and copied to Production order, the rest of the process is same
as normal Production Control. Revert back with any queries you have.

Why doesn't my apps show up in iTunes?

Why doesn't my apps show up in iTunes? I'm on iTunes 11.1.2.31 using an iPad mini on the latest IOS 7.0.3. Could it be that I'm on a new computer and have some settings messed up? See enclosed screenshot. It can obviously detect the number of apps (44), but why aren't they listed in the apps section?

Why don't all iPhoto albums appear in iTunes so I can download them to ipad

Why don't my iPhoto albums appear in iTunes not all of them and not complete so I can download them to iPad or iPhone. Only some of them transfer over to iTunes.

After a good hour, finally sorted it out thanks to this
Q: When I first had iTunes move my ebooks to the new iBooks app in Mavericks, many of my books didn’t get transferred. How can I get these books back? Are they lost forever?
There was a bug in the first version of the iBooks app that prevented it from moving all the books in the iTunes library to the new app. In my library, only two books didn’t get moved, but I’ve heard from people who lost dozens or even hundreds of books.
These books should still be on your computer. If you haven’t done so, open the App Store app, click Updates, and download the iBooks 1.0.1 update. Launch iBooks, then choose File > Move Books from iTunes. This should move the remaining books to iBooks.
