just bought the Iphone 3G 8GB. I installed iTunes on my PC v.8.2 XP, I launch iTunes. I connect my iPhone to it on my PC’s USB port. iPhone 3G won’t show up in iTunes

On the left menu I have device that appears with the word iPhone appears to but not named. I select to put me in touch with him but then nothing happens!.The screen stays black and iTunes I have no photo of the iPhone that appears with the menu tabs at the top. There are no buttons “Check for updates” etc.

s there something special setup on the iPhone? Please help me, I do not know what to do 

Re: iPhone 3G won’t show up in iTunes
Try uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes 8.2.1. The best solution is still to try on another PC, but otherwise it just like that date when your PC? For me I have a friend she has a PC over 5 years, and his little 15-inch screen when it opens iTunes. I am considering your case similar to her. The USB ports may still be 1.1 try upgrading it to usb 2.0

Re: iPhone 3G won’t show up in iTunes
I had the same problem with my iphone finally i realized that I made the mistake of installing “activemms2g” on an iphone 3G. Result: the iphone shows the apple startup screen and then black. The passage is not in DFU mode and the iphone is not recognized by the machine. i tried starting but can not, turns off and on again. I know of no way to restore without DFU mode. I really need the help of an expert because I’m completely lost. Thank you 

Re: iPhone 3G won’t show up in iTunes
For your problem, if the USB ports are the USB 2.0 and not 1.0, so it may come from iTunes, the update has it been done. Try to uninstall and reinstall iTUnes and check whether it works or not . Also try to install Net Framework 3.0 if not already done. One of them should work in your case if nothing is working try this might work.
