Hi

I am having a problem with my ipad . It is recognized by windows7 and appear as a drive in the my computer screen but itunes does not recognize it at all.

2 weeks ago. I had a problem with it 2 weeks ago . Total connectivity with pc was down and also with wall charger. Was charging on low power. But it was fixed by replacing the hardware port . Thats what the store said happened to fix it. "egyptian store called tradeline, yes am in egypt".

Please help me.

If Win7 can see it ok, you should be able to see the DCIM folder and go into it and see other folders, then the connection appears to be fine. The apple drivers may be bad or corrupt. Try reloading/installing iTunes again.

Have you tried rebooting both the PC and iPad? I had a similar problem after installing the iTunes update.

Maybe a fresh installation would fix.

Thanks i tried installing an update and nothing changed, maybe i should try to uninstall completely then installing the latest version of itunes.

Maybe try restoring Windows, deleteing iTunes and then reinstalling iTunes.

do you mean restoring windows to a date i didnt even get the ipad? before i had connectivity or when exactly?

So, for reasoning sake,
1. You USED to be able to connect to same PC and iTunes would see it and work.
2. You started having charging issues and iTunes stopped recognizing iPad
3. You took it to a store and the store "repaired" the iPad by replacing the port hardware (or the PC???)
4. You can now connect to PC and see the hardware but itunes does not show iPad.
5. You uninstalled iTunes, reboot you pc, reinstalled iTunes and still can not connected iPad to itunes. ( you installed the correct 32bit/4bit version)
6. You are using the original iPad data cable (not an ipod cable or generic cable) and you tried an alternate usb port on your PC.

If I got this right, then I'd say the repair center did not repair your device correctly. To check this I would try to find access to another PC and see if you can get the same iPad to be identified by that iTunes. If yes, its your PC or setup, if no its the iPad.
