Q: iTunes Does Not Recognize My iPhone for Sync. Why?

Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone is not being recognized by your computer after updating iTunes, but your iPad is syncing normally. This does sound like an annoying situation.
Since your iPad can sync, I recommend starting with the iOS specific troublshooting steps found in one of these articles (such as restarting your device, checking USB connections, etc):
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
All the best,
Jeremy
