My iphone is not showing up as a device in itunes when it is plugged into my computer, how do I fix this?

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

I've read through this entire thread and tried virtually everything and my iPhone is still not being recognized on my iTunes😟 My iPhone is a 6 and my computer is a Windows 7. Anyone got any ideas?

YAy thank you so much, it worked (:

THank you so much

Never thought this could work, but it did!!! Like a magic. I would've never thought of this complicated solution. Thank you.

Perfect. Thank you so much, this worked perfectly.

Don't know if this has been solved yet, but I was having the same problem, and this worked for me: http://www.technipages.com/itunes-fix-iphone-or-ipod-not-detected-in-windows

If you can't/don't want to use the link, I'll write it out here:

1: Ensure the latest iTunes is installed

2: Open "Control Panel"

3: Select "Hardware and Sound"

4: Select "Drivers and Printers"

5: Your iPhone or iPod should be displayed in the "Unspecified" section. Right-click it and select "Properties".

Note: If you don't see your device listed here, ensure you have selected to trust the PC on the device and you are using a supported cable.

6: Select the "Hardware" tab, then click the "Properties" button.

7: From the "General" tab, select the "Change Settings" button.

8: Select the "Driver" tab, then select "Update Driver"

9: Choose "Browse my computer for driver software"

10: Select "Browse..." then navigate to "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers" If you don't have this folder, check in "C:\Program Files (86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers".

11: Click "Next">"Close"

God bless you, sir

Thank you JF Fourie, your instructions worked perfectly.

This is what fixed mine. It worked right before I did a windows update and then that driver was just gone from the device manager. Thanks.

This worked for me. Thank you! 🙂

JF Fourie's link works just fine. Make sure you're following the steps provided in that link and it'll work.

Thank you! This worked for me!

Thanks! You got my iPhone working again.

Very useful tip. This solved my problem.Thanks a lot.
