Everything was fine until I finally upgraded to OS 10.5.1. Now iTunes does not recognize the phone and will not sync. I have tried all the recommendations from apple support, but no luck. Does anyone else have any other suggestions. It has almost been a week since my last sync, so too much info to loose.
If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone when it is attached via USB, there are a number of potential fixes.
Delete then re-install iTunes Delete the following files:
The iTunes application (located in /Applications)
com.apple.iTunes.plist (from ~/Library/Preferences)
iTunes.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
iTunesX.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
then re-download the latest version of iTunes.
Check the USB port Make sure that your iPhone is connected to a normally powered USB 2.0 port. If you’re using a hub, try connecting the iPhone directly to the computer or vice versa. Also try switching ports.

I am using a 2.0 hub, but you're right it probably is iTunes something must have happened when upgrading. I did connect my iPod and did upgrades etc. without a problem. It makes me wonder if it could be a phone problem. I will try to reinstall 7.6. Thanks for the help.
