If your phone is updated to iOS5 and your iTunes isn't updated to the 10.5(.1), it will not recognize your phone. I would first make sure your computer is recognizing it and if so, reinstall/update iTunes. If your computer fails to recognize it, you need to update/reinstall your apple mobile device drivers on the computer.

Hi,

By the sound of it I have a similar problem and have also posted a question.

For me it is Iphone 4S and Ipad 2 - so two devices.

They are picked up under my computer but not Itunes/devices. I've also noticed that Itunes store doesnt open?


I don't have a solution either sadly.


Both my deviced IoS6 and itunes are up to date - think it must be an Itunes issue, but see no suggestions from the Big Apple 😟
