iphone 4s not showing up on iTunes 12.5.1

I use my phone 4s iOS 6.1.3 as an iPod now. I have not had a problem syncing music to it with iTunes until now. I don't remember how long ago I last synced it, but I just tried after updating to iTunes 12.5.1. The 4s is connected to my mac by usb, however it doesn't show up under iTunes, any suggestions?

OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), 3.33 6 core

Hi there, Zenmaccer!
Thanks for reaching out via the Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, I am understanding that you recently updated iTunes, and it now will not recognize your iPhone 4s when it is connected to your Mac. I manage my own iPhone with iTunes all the time, so I know it's important that they can communicate! I'd be happy to help.
I recommend going through the steps in the following article.
If iTunes doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod
Have a great day!
