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+


  • Go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
  • Right click the file called "usbaapI64.inf"
  • Choose INSTALL


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.
