Windows 8 and itunes problem (iphone not showing up as a device)

My new PC laptop has Windows 8 and in itunes my iphone doesn't show up as a device when I connect it to the laptop. I've tried all the fixes mentioned.

Try one or more of the following:
- Restart your computer
- Uninstall & Reinstall iTunes
- Reset iPhone (will NOT delete everything) [Settings>>General>>Reset>>Reset All Settings]
- Go to My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista or 7) and see if it shows (should show as a digital camera)
- Restore iPhone (will DELETE everything) [Settings>>General>>Reset>>Erase All Content & Settings]
- Make sure iTunes & iOS Firmware is up to date.

  • How do I remove a device from iTunes that does not show up under "Manage Devices" in account?

    My husbands macbook is logged in with his iTunes account.  For some reason my iPad (linked with my account) keeps showing up on his macbook under his account.  I went on his account and to manage devices and my iPad is not one of the devices listed.  So how do I permanentaly delete my iPad from showing up on his account?

    It is showing up in his iTunes library as all iDevices would.
    That has nothing to do with his iTunes account.
    My iPad device is not an option as a device being used by his apple ID.
    It's not being used by his AppleID.
    Select the iPad in his iTunes library.
    Click the Summary tab.
    Uncheck Sync this iPsd over wifi.
    Uncheck Open iTunes when this Pad is connected.
    Right click > Eject the iPad.

  • Windows 8.1 laptop computer not showing in SCCM 2012 devices collection

    Hi,
    I am trying to do a POC on license management from  SCCM 2012. I have configures a SCCM 2012 server and intune subscription also. I have Android, iOS and desktop apps uploaded (.msi). when I enrolled android and ios devices its shows up in SCCM,
    devices collection but do not show in Intune.
    my company portal is nicely coming up on android and iOS tabs. on the other hand company portal showing only Web apps, on a win8.1/7 laptop.
    When I tried to enroll 2 windows 8.1/ 7 laptop (intel x86), they donot show up in SCCM. clients of intune manually installed, endpoint protection of SCCM installed also on both boxes.
    I tried updating membership in SCCM for both know and unknown type, many time and also triggered Deployment of some desktop app, to the win 8.1 laptops. the desktops are showing in Intune All devices -> all computers nicely. But
    not in SCCM2012.
    what did I missed, I tried to add all the logical roles. below is some details what shows up in Intune:
    indranil

    If you installed the Intune agents on the Win 8.1 and Win 7 systems, then they will never show up in ConfigMgr.
    There are basically two parts of Intune -- a Mobile Device Management piece and a Windows management piece. The Intune connector in ConfigMgr takes over the MDM piece and nothing more. When ConfigMgr takes over this MDM piece, as Torsten said, all MDM devices
    enrolled show up in ConfigMgr and not Intune because that's now controlled by ConfigMgr. The Windows management piece remains unchanged and separate though and so those systems will be directly managed by Intune only or ConfigMgr only.
    So you have three options there:
    - Install the ConfigMgr agent and managed using COnfigMgr
    - Install the Intune agent and manage using Intune
    - Enroll the systems using OMA-DM which manages them as if they were devices. This means so you don't get SCEP or Windows Updates or most of the other ConfigMgr functionality. This is only valid for Win 8.1 though.

  • Windows Vista iTunes Home Share Not showing up on Apple tv2 through LAN

    I have 2 new Apple TV's and I'm having the same problem on both, so I think it is an issue with my network or the Vista Laptop. I'm hoping for helpful suggestions here.
    My setup:
    2 Apple TV2's connected with wifi
    D-Link DIR655 Router
    MacbookPro, iPad, And iPhones all connected with wifi.
    iTunes Home Sharing and Airplay all work fine with all of the above.
    The Problem:
    I have an old Vista Laptop I want to use as an iTunes Server to store movies on and such, for use on the Apple TV's.
    If I connect the laptop to the network with wifi the Apple tv's find the Vista iTunes Homeshare just fine. But when I connect the laptop via Lan Wire to the router the Apple tv's don't seem to find the laptop. This is a problem because i want to just connect it wired and tuck the laptop away in a closet, so it is not a waste of wifi spectrum, but no joy so far. I have checked firewalls and things like that but no luck. Any ideas out there?

    I was also having this problem but in my case it was not caused by the D Link router. My problem was caused by mcafee firewall. To get itunes sharing to work I needed to add an itunes firewall/port rule to enable TCP=3689 UDP=5353 and enable this for ALL PCs. Setting this for PCs in Home/Work networks did not work.

  • When connected to itunes, my iphone 4 shows up as a device. GREAT - but it won't give me any other option than to restore it from older back ups saved. I went to a Genius and there's nothing wrong with the phone itself so it HAS to be my itunes. Ideas?

    My iTunes is up to date and i have print screens to show you what I'm on about if it's unclear:
    http://i40.tinypic.com/mku9lw.jpg
    http://i41.tinypic.com/25h1gs1.jpg
    The genius said he'd not come accross this before but i'm pretty sure everything is up to date on my pc (well...it's a vista so as up to date as it can be)
    PLEASEEE HELLP MEEE

    one more detail, after a restore, when I attempt to reload music to the ipod, if I try and move, say, 20 files, the transfer seems to work as it should but then stalls on the last file.  Eventually, the status will change to "Updates Files on (my ipod)" a and suggests the iPod is syncing  even though I have the auto sync feature turned off.
    This process eventually works itself out, and seems to take longer relative to the number of files I attempt to transfer.   Once done, howver, if I try and eject and dismount the iPod, iTunes stalls with the spinning pinwheel and I am warned that the iPod is syncing again with the spinning candy cane status bar.     Eventually thisd works itself out and the iPod dismounts from iTunes and the desktop and eventually the iPod is free to disconnect.
    Then if I try and play the music I just transfered, the iPod says there is no music loaded.
    Ideas?

  • Trying to create a pdf from an HP G85 scanner and the G85 is not showing up as a device for Adobe

    I have windows 7 (new) and adobe 8 professional.  I was trying to scan from my HP G85 all in device and adobe was not recognizing any devices to scan from.  Can someone please offer advice.

    @kvolk6oldbarn –
    The G85 works for me in Windows 7. I have Windows 7 Home Premium (new about a week ago) and Acrobat 8 Standard.  I can see my G85 AIO from Windows (Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers).  If you’re still having trouble connecting to it, I suggest the Microsoft Compatibility page for the G85:
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Hardware& p=HP%20Officejet%20g85%20All-in-One%20Printer&v=HP&uid=C6737A&pf=9&pi=4&c=Printers%20%26%2 0Scanners&sc=Multifunction&os=64-bit
    You might also check out the related discussion about connecting to the G85 at “See what others are saying about this product in the Windows 7 Answers Forums” where they also discuss access to some of the other functions (eg fax); that’s at:
    http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7hardware/thread/79d670dc-36b8-4303-9adf -909f839c4d90/
    Once you’re connected, the settings I use to get reasonable scanning speed are Native and Show Scanner’s Native Interface.  That’s in the Scanner Options dialog (get there from Create PDF > From Scanner > Scanner Options).  The only interface I have available is WIA (in the scanner pull-down to the left of the Scanner Options button).  The resulting scanning behavior is about 4 stutters as it scans a page – that is, the scan bar moves a few inches, backs up about 1/2 inch, then goes another few inches, etc.  That’s about what I saw in XP, so it looks nearly the same to me. 
    Good luck.
    P.S.  if HP tech staff are watching: Acrobat has a lot of trouble driving the scanner if the settings are instead Native/Hide.  The behavior then is the scan bar goes about an inch, backs up 7/8 inch, goes another inch, etc.  That’s so painful to watch I’ve never let it continue to see if really would make it all the way down the page.

  • IPhone not showing up under File Devices

    Anyone else seeing this?

    iTunes 11.4 & Mac OS 10.10

    It shows up on my iMac's iTunes
    I have on File > Devices >

    Yes do the transfer purchases first and then a backup before you update.

  • Why are specific Itunes playlists/music not showing when I sync devices?, Why are specific Itunes playlists/music not showing when I sync devices?

    Each time I sync any of my devices, the same playlists/music from my Itunes is absent from my device's sync application. 

    Under the summary tab in iTunes make sure you have Automatically Back Up This computer. If you have iCloud selected it won't back up when syncing.

  • Just purchased a ipad2, could not us it on my MacBook 10.4.1 - Purchased and installed OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3 - downloaded and installed latest itunes, set up a itunes accounts and tested by purchasing an album and app, ipad does not show in devises?

    I just purchased a ipad2, it would not work on my MacBook 10.4.1 I purchased and installed OSX snow leopard 10.6.3 downloaded and installed the latest itunes, set up an itunes account, purchased some music and apps.  When i plug in my ipod it shows up and works, but when i plug in my new ipad the ipad screen comes up with a display of a cable and itunes but does not show in devises, i have tried all the resets and different USB ports with no success.  Any ideas short of selling it on ebay or buying a new computer?

    If you've already tried the usual rebooting of the computer and ports and stuff, there is only a few things left I can think of. It's possible that when you updated iTunes it didn't fully replace all the files, so I suggest just manually removing iTunes and then reinstalling it.
    Try removing iTunes manually first http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 then download a fresh copy, make sure it is 10.3.1
    It is essential that you go through Finder to remove those files it mentions. Otherwise they won't be reinstalled when you run the installer again.

    Hello, bluebelle95. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

    I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts.   All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window".  But what if you have no device window?

    Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
    I thought the libraries were the same.
