Sometimes the USB driver for the iPhone is corrupt, meaning that iTunes never realizes what is plugged in.
For iTunes 12.5.4/iPhone 6+
This should take a few seconds, and then iTunes should come to life and see the phone. At that point, you may have to tell the phone to "trust" the computer again.

Any solutions? I have uninstalled and installed iTunes like a million times and tried all the other solutions mentioned here but it still doesnt work 😟
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.
Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with third party software.
Your library and device backups should be unaffected by these steps but there are links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Problem: iTunes did not detect my iPhone 6.
Using Windows 10, Win+R run devmgmt.msc;
Apple Modile Device USB driver was not listed in expanded "Universal Serial Bus controllers" list.
Had to install manually by going to:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
(note slightly different path from Chengtai2's post)
right click on
usbaapl64.inf
and chose Install
with iphone 6 connected, and itunes version 12.4.1.6 running; when prompted on iphone choose "Allow" access.
a few seconds later iphone gets detected.
Problem Solved.

Thank you Chengtai2 <33333
very helpful. it can fix for those who unable detect iphone on iTunes .
You are the best Chengtai2. I was having same issue because this stupid windows 10 chose a wrong driver and it kept doing that. I thought I had no hope but you came to the rescue. Thanks again.
okay...what do we do if there is no "drivers" folder in there? ...and please don't say to uninstall and reinstall Itunes to get it, cause I've done that three times now...
what do we do if this elusive "drivers" folder isn't showing up?
