iPhone does not appear in iTunes

Same issue as both before. There are steps to fullow posted before from support staff. Check AMDS service and stop/start the service, after disconnecting the phone and closing ITunes. I did this several times, so next step is uninstall then reinstall ITunes. Testing it now. My problem is with current version of ITunes 11.1.4.62. My Phone is 4G series. Cloud was working over all, but could not update phone by connecting with perfect cables. Now fully installed ITunes - IPhone connected Windows 8 sees it, but ITunes not doing anything with it. In the page supported they claim a third party program may be causing issue. Everytime I connect to same computer phone asks if I trust this computer. OS for phone is 7.0.6 - no know issue there. Right now no way to allow anything but music through Cloud. So after 2 reinstalls in less than 30 days, problems still exist!!!

Second issue --- I-Pod not recongized by ITunes at this time. It was recognized before recent update. Wanting to return to ITunes 10.

Same issue here, have done all the standard Apple fix suggestions and nothing worked. I can't get my iphone5 or my two ipod touches to register on ituens on my windows 8 computer but on my windows 7 computer they register fine. It has to be a glitch with windows 8.

Thank you! Windows 8 is the OS I have here also. Getting closer and closer to kicking back to XP or finding Windows 7 or going to an OS that handels windows and mac at once.

Window 8 decided to allow iTunes to see the phone finally. Still working with iPod, to be seen.
