So I tried Everything , and my apple mobile device driver (or any apple driver) isn't showing up under my device manager. I'ts under my services but not under my device manager. This is causing neither of my iphones to sync with the computer. Please tell me if there is anyway to manually install the driver, since I followed apple's support for if it was missing, and it didn't work. My iphone(s) are not even being recognized as a camera or in recovery mode. I also re installed like 80 times(following apples way of completely re installing it) and the driver is still not in the device manager. It's not my usb either since I have 3 usb's and neither of my iphone's will still not appear as a device in the device manager.

    I tried to uninstall SDA standard compliant sd host controller driver and Microsoft WPD enhanced storage password and when I restarted my computer they didn't try to re-install. I'm convinced the problem I was having with the apple mobile device driver is because of my iPod. Because when I put my sisters iPod into my computer apple mobile device driver appeared on the device manager. I just decided to get a new one.

    I'm just worried because I don't have the drivers at all anymore is there somewhere I can download the SDA standard compliant sd host controller and microsoft WPD enhanced storage password drivers?

    Hi all,

    I have read all your posts, and it hurts to read what you are going through and all you have been doing to rectify the problem. And I just want you to know that you are not the only one in this kind of predicament. In my opinion, I believe you are being played by both Apple and Microsoft. They know what the problem is, and they have no plan to fix it. The reason is because there is not enough people complaining about the same for them to designate a team of programmers (that will cost them thousands of $$) to fix. Furthermore, your predicament is not affecting their publicity or their market share. On top of this, you are still using the product, and it is not affecting their pockets money-wise.

    In my opinion, you have to get their attention by affecting their publicity and their pocket. You can either go after one, both or neither. By choosing neither, you will have to try to fix it on your own. And here are a few pointers.

    Try to restore both your devices to time when they both worked the way you like it. If it means uninstalling iOS7.x and restoring 6.x, that's what you have to do. The same for your PC. In my opinion, I think Apple is trying to prevent Microsoft PC users from accessing their product. Other Apple products can still access their product, just the Microsoft and other OS. This is intended to frustrate PC (and other OS) users into eventually acquiring Apple product. At first, for market purposes, they attract you with the ability to connect both OS'. Apple allow Microsoft access to a certain degree. But when they noticed that Microsoft users are still not swayed into buying their product, they take away that access hoping this will sway them more. Meanwhile, Microsoft is trying to play catch up. Do you know that if Microsoft broke the code to access Apple product, they will not release it. They'll keep it for another invented product or OS, to make us buy those products. To them, it is just a game.

    This is how I fixed my problem. I bought Microsoft PC, tablet and phone, and have them connect to each other. I also got Apple iPad, iPhone etc., and connected them. Since Apple will make sure their products connect to each other, I don't have any more of connectivity problem. Whatever I do on Apple environment stays in that environment. The same for my Microsoft devices. It came at a cost, but to me, it was worthwhile. At least I don't waste my time (which has more value per hour). And unlike you who still cannot connect your devices despite the time you have wasted, I can. The only thing I have to do is to replicated what I do on one on another OS. And that I can manage.

    Take my advise, don't waste your time with these people. If you have nothing to do, keep pestering them. Hopefully they will fix the problem. And trust me, it will happen again.

    Thanks you.
