Computer wont recognize iPad 4th gen

So after a lot of googling and research, I decided to give up and just ask here. My iPad (4th gen) on iOS 8.1.1 wont connect my computer. It wont even say that its "Not Charging". Nothing shows up in Device Manager, Nothing shows up in iTunes, I've tried reinstalling iTunes but to no avail. The iPad isn't recognized.


However, if I plug in my iPhone 4 to the computer, Its recognized and appears in iTunes. It appears the issue is with the iPad, since I tried connecting it with another desktop (Windows Vista SP1 32-bit) it still isn't recognized.


P.S: Im on Windows 7 (32-bit) if thats of any help.

iPad, iOS 8.1.1
