ipad not detected since itunes 12.12.2.2

My two iPads are no longer recognised by iTunes, since I installed the iTunes 12.12.2.2 update today.

Earlier, I simply wanted to backup my iPad via iTunes, so that I could restore the data and apps onto the other iPad.

But I couldn't backup (greyed out), possibly as iTunes was not running the very latest version, so I installed the update as prompted.

Since then, iTunes does not show either ipad at all. I have rebooted multiple times, tried different USB cables, different ports, but in any case, the PC itself does recognise the iPad and allows me to browse the photos.

So it looks just like a problem with iTunes.

Now not sure what do now, any suggestions would be most welcome. Many thanks!

Thanks for the reply, I have the following devices:

iPad Air - iOS 12.5.5

iPad Air 2 - iOS 15.0

But very strange, I have just tested again this morning, everything is the same as yesterday, except now both iPad's are detected by iTunes. I can't explain it, same PC, same USB cable, no updates or changes made, but now it's working.

Anyway, very happy, apologies to waste time with this post.

Perhaps you can share the models of iPad with which you are having difficulty - and the installed versions of iOS?

Perhaps your PC had a driver update - which required one or more computer restarts to complete the installation.

It’s good to learn that the problem is resolved.
