I updated iTunes (10.7) and now iPhone Configuration Utility will not run.

At this point in time, it would be really nice of Apple to show some interest in the enterprise market. And at least come with some info about this.

It's very frustrating not knowing what happens.

To download older versions of itunes go to http://www.oldapps.com/itunes.php this has both the 64 and 32 bit versions of all the historical releases.

You can get iTunes 10.6.3 also by going to Apple website - support - search with "10.6.3" if it is not this version what you need to download old iTunes:

You may need to do this after going back to 10.6.3 from 10.7:

When I installed iTunes 10.6.3 back, connected with cable, during the cable connection then switched on the Wifi syncronizing and after that installed iTunes 10.7, I was able to syncronize my iPhone 4S with iTunes 10.7 with WiFi but not with cable.

Here's how to get iPCU working again until we can release a new version of iPCU which is compatible with the version of Apple Mobile Device Support included with iTunes 10.7:

1) Uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support

2) Uninstall iPCU

3) Reinstall iPCU

Step 1) may cause iTunes 10.7 not to work properly with connected devices. If so, you would then also need to uninstall iTunes 10.7 and reinstall iTunes 10.6.3.

Here's how to get iPCU for Windows working again until we can release a new version of iPCU which is compatible with the version of Apple Mobile Device Support included with iTunes 10.7:

1) Uninstall Apple Mobile Device Support

2) Uninstall iPCU

3) Reinstall iPCU

Step 1) may cause iTunes 10.7 not to work properly with connected devices. If so, you would then also need to uninstall iTunes 10.7 and reinstall iTunes 10.6.3.

This worked for me - thank you!

Thank you -- I was able to download the 32-bit iTunes v10.6.3 for Windows 7.

I have the same issue, and none of these tips have worked for me 😠

I dont know what else to do!

iTunes works fine, until I plug my phone in...

I've had this issue for weeks, and nothing has helped, I updated to iOS6 last night...

Any other ideas?

Rolling back to Itunes 6.3 Does the trick! thank you!!!!

I'm having the same problem. I'm going to try and research it later, but I'm assuming a new version of ICU is needed as obviously shared files between ICU and iTunes 7 changed. You'd think Apple would have learned considering they removed the integration between QuickTime and iTunes.

Okay I got this working with minimal fuss. Here's what you have to do:

1. Download the iPhone Configuration Utility 3.5 installer for Windows, but don't install.

2. Download 7-zip and install it

3. Open the iPhoneConfigUtilitySetup.exe in 7-zip and extract the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (version 5.1.1.4) installer.

4. Open AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi in 7-zip and find and extract MobileDevice.dll (version 507.7.0.1) and copy it to the iPhone Configuration Utility folder (for me it is "C:\Program Files\iPhone Configuration Utility". It's the folder that has iPCU.exe in it). Do NOT copy it into the Mobile Device Support folder.

Basically IPCU needs the old version of MobileDevice.dll.

That's it. Now both IPCU and iTunes 7 should work without having to keep moving files around. At least it does for me.

Edit:

If you don't feel like going through the above steps, I uploaded the old MobileDevice.dll to Dropbox so you can simply grab it from https://www.dropbox.com/s/lzr2rcz3i5zmb6o/MobileDevice.dll

You are a genious man!

Thank you very much! This works beautifully!

Once again users are able to solve Apple's issues without having any official answer!

Great catch!!! 🙂

🙂😁 Yap This works beautifully! 😁🙂

Thanks Morac

I'll note that I don't know if the new MobileDevice.dll included with iTunes 7 is required for the iPhone 5 or not. If it is, then IPCU may not work with the iPhone 5.

Brilliant resolution, Morac!

Worked/works perfectly for me.

Only variant is that I am WINDOWS 7 64-bit; therefore, I extracted 64-bit-specific msi, "AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi" and then used the MobileDevice.dll contained therein.

Cheers & thanks!
