iTunes
Try the following:
- Open Control Panel > Device Manager
- Plug in your device
- Locate Universal Serial Bus Controllers > Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
It is also possible the device may show under Imaging Devices, Portable Devices or Other Devices or as an MTB USB Device. - Right-click and select Update Driver Software...
- Click Browse my computer for driver software
- Browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers or
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers - Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
- Click Apple Mobile Device USB Driver
- Click Next, then Close and exit Device Manager
Or try If iTunes doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod - Apple Support.
Failing that try a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes as set out in Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
