For some reason when I updated to the new itunes my iphone 4 stopped connecting to my computer and itunes. I have tried restarting my computer and my iphone but nothing is working. I have tried plugging in different plugs thinking something with the cord but nothing! But when I try to connect my iphone my computer makes the sound as if it is connected but my phone is not in my computer and my iphone shows its not connected
iPhone 4
you may have to uninstall and reinstall itunes and all of its componants and that should resolve your issue!

Hey there, I have a gateway laptop which is being ran by Microsoft, my iTunes can't connect either I have updated my driver, uninstalled and then reinstalled my device from my ENTIRE computer, I am up to date with my phones software and my iTunes and still nothing will connect! I now that it't not my USB port or computer because my iPod shuffle, iPod 4 and iPad 1 connect but my iPhone 5s will do absolutely nothing, I simply have come to the conclusion that apple may have a problem with their software or the a problem with the iOS 10 and connection to iTunes if anybody has looked into this more please reply to this comment cause I have done everything and still nothing
I have tried that and it still wont work..
Im using windows 7 computer
IS THERE A WAY I CAN UNINSTALL MY PHONE FROM MY COMPUTER THAN REINSTALL MY PHONE?
Couple of quick questions on what does happen with your computer when you plug the phone in.
First - Does the computer show an auto play window when you plug the deivce in? Basically asking to import pictures.
Second - Does the device charge on the computer?
Third - Laptop or desktop?
Fourth - Is the phone plugged into the closest USB port to the power supply on the computer? These seem to be standard USB 2.0 ports (unless you have a really old or a really new computer).
Fifth - Did you uninstall all 6 pieces of iTunes or just the iTunes progam it's self?

When you uninstall and reinstalling itunes follow this article to make sure that you went through the process correctly- http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923?viewlocale=en_US
1) nothing happens when I plug it in except make a sound like it is conected
2) my phone doesnt charge..
3) laptop
4) not sure what you mean by that
5) I dont wanna loose anything on my itunes..
but I can plug a different iphone that hasnt been synced with my laptop and it works but as soon as I plug my iphone in it doesnt connect???
Uninstalling and reinstalling wont delete anything on your library, I would try that if you have tried everything else in that article.
It still doesnt work
Because the iphone isn't even charging it is sounding like a problem with the usb cord or the device it's self.
Did you use the same USB cord to plug the other iphone into the computer?
Does your iphone charge with that same cord in the wall oulet?
I'd like to add as i have had this problem too.
Mine was NOT a hardware problem. I was able to charge my phone again by uninstalling the driver for the iPhone.
so clearly a driver problem. I am now still unable to connect to itunes.
Yes i've reinstalled itunes 17 times and redownloaded it 6 times. It doesn't help
I found my phone charged when runing in Bios, so i concluded deleting the driver will at least let me charge my phone.
i had the same issue after 2 hours of failures i was able to fix the issue.
basically what has happed is some how your iphone driver has stopped working.
go to your device manager. more than likely under other devices you would see your iphone under recovery mode. roght click--->properties. click on driver tab and update driver.
this would get your itunes to see your iphone. recover your iphone and then update or not.
let me know if this helps.
good luck
My iphone won't connect to itunes or my computer!
