I just downloaded iOS 7 today and after the download, I was having trouble connecting my iPhone 5 to iTunes. My phone does not show up in iTunes even though it is plugged in and I repeatedly get the error code 0xE8000084. I have Windows 8 and I have already tried uninstalling iTunes then reinstalling it, as well as restarting my computer. Additionally, I have already installed iTunes 11.
iPhone 5, iOS 7

Hi
I am facing the same probleb with my iPhone 4 iOS 7.0.2
Hi,
I've found a solution that worked for my iphone 4s on Windows 8.1. I've got such problem since I changed to a new MSI GE70-2PE048FR Apache Pro mobile computer. Its appear that is has brand new USB 2.0 and 3.0 interface and they are not so compatible with the iphone 4s i guess...
So what worked for me was to plug an old USB 2.0 Hub to one of my USB port from the computer and then pluged the iphone 4s in that hub, and dont know why but worked perfectly !!!!
Hope it will help you all !!!

Hey,
Related to the post by Xenus98, if you have an MSI GE70 (any kind) and your iphone is not syncing to itunes, it is becuase the two USB ports on the right side of the laptop (next to the optical drive) are USB 3.0 which does not work with iphones-->Itunes. BUT, the other side of the laptop has TWO USB 2.0 ports which you can use for Itunes. The only issue you may have is if you plugged in your iphone/ipod to a USB 3.0 port becuase it will download the driver onto that USB 3.0.
To fix this go to Device Manager.
Find the Iphone (you should see a yellow triangle).
unistall the iphone and close out of Itunes.
Replug your Iphone into the USB 2.0 ports (left side, but may be different with other models)
Open Itunes and let your phone load into it.
Hope this helps!
