Itunes won't sync music to my Iphone 5C

Okay so I've been reading what everyone has said to do when itunes won't sync to your phone and I've tried EVERYTHING!!! My phone still isn't syncing. I have a Toshiba laptop which has windows 8 & I don't know what else to do. Please someone help me. I'm starting to get ****** off because everyone else has figured out a way to get it to work but I can't. My computer recognizes my phone but itunes doesn't. Any suggestions?!
