Hey everyone, I've got a problem with my iTunes on my MacBook, thought this was the best place to put the thread. So I have a late '08 MacBook C2D, and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard (currently 10.6.6). Since then, both my iPad and iPod touch 4th gen have failed to be detected by iTunes. iPhoto pops up when I plug them in, but nothing on iTunes. What I've noticed is that every time I install an update for iTunes, it will work fine until I restart the computer, then all connections are lost again. I've read online that reinstalling iTunes each time would be a temporary solution, but other than that, I don't know if there's a better way to deal with it. It seems to be a common problem, anyone else experience it? I would've thought one of the 'bug fixes' would've fixed the issue. And I apologise if this has been asked before, but I haven't found a thread about it. Thanks!

Thanks mate, that second article was completely unrelated but the first one led me to another link which has the problem addressed (here). I never came across the article for some reason, but I'm going to install the update now and restart to see if it's fixed. Thanks!
