My Iphone 3s isn't syncing to itunes?
Help! Please!
I have an Iphone 3s and when I plug the USB cable into my computer all it does is charge. Itunes doesn't pop up like it normally does asking to sync. What do I do?!
I've tried turning on and off both my computer (dell) and my phone, both to no avail.
I installed the latest version of itunes, and I can't think of anything else to do! Please help!
Also, I have an itouch and the same thing happens except I can't even get it to say it's charging!
I really don't know what to do!
Added (1). Okay stupid question, how do I do that?
Also, a friend of mine was going through my computer and deleted things he thought were "unnecessary" could that have done it? And if so what do I need to re-install?
Added (2). No, nothing is jailbroken. I use the apple given USB cord and have tried it in All of the USB ports my computer has. ( There are three.) I was able to get my computer to recognize my phone this morning when I put all of my photos onto my computer! I just remembered that.
Also, in Itunes, the phone/itouch is not showing up at all. It doesn't know it's hooked up
Added (3). I just tried a different USB cable and still nothing.
Check if your iTunes setting is set to automatically sync or not. That may be the problem!
Your question doesn't really mention this, what DOES happen when you start iTunes yourself? Do you see the iPod or iPhone in sidebar? Do you even see sidebar? Is this just a matter of the music not transferring to the iPod or iPhone when you hit the sync button or of it not showing up at all?
If the latter, try inserting, removing and reinserting both ends of the cable. Maybe you should try a different cable or USB port (that would explain the iPod not charging). Are you using an internal USB port or a USB hub (not a good idea)?
If the former is a better description of the problem, then don't sync - you can transfer the music and video manually once you've enabled manual management in iTunes.
BTW - are your devices jailbroken?

- Why isn't my iTunes syncing? Hi, basically whenever I try to sync my iPhone (3GS) a message appears saying something along the lines of "couldn't sync iPhone, run the installer to uninstall iTunes and then install the 64-bit version". I have done this multiple times to be met with the same message. If you could send me a link to the iTunes that I need, or give me any requirements for iTunes, it would be much appreciated. By the way, I use Windows 7 and have an Asus laptop- if this is any help.
- Why isn't my iTunes syncing to my iPhone? I've put new music on my iTunes library and i want it on my iPhone, but it won't work. It will say that it will back up my phone and then that it has put my music on there, but it won't actually put it on there.
