iTunes does not automatically start up when iPhone is connected.

Hey SJChango99,

This is most likely because iTunes Helper was removed from the startup or login iTems. The easiest way to get iTunes Helper back is to reinstall the latest version of iTunes.

If the issue persists after reinstalling iTunes, give us a little more information about your computer.
Is it a Mac or PC? If its a PC, what security software is running on it?

I had the same issue with Windows Vista. I would plug in my iphone after the new Itunes update and Windows would say "found new device" and try installing drivers. It would then report it failed. I looked under device manager and saw that it was listed as a camera device. I followed the steps found in the following url, and now my iphone is synching. 🙂 I hope it works for you.

My itunes also does not start up anymore although the ituneshelper.app is on its place inside the start objects. i will try a reinstall and hope that it works.

Reinstalling itunes did not change anything. Strange enough, my ipods (one nano 2nd Gen and one ipod 4th Gen) start up itunes as soon as I connect them via their usb/firewire-cables to my computer.

Also the mdcrashreport starts each time I sync my iPhone.

news from the world: iPhones Sync crashes when I balance my calendar entries. maybe that helps.
