I was running iTunes on Win7RC with no problems until yesterday. I updated iTunes to 8.2 and now all the sudden my PC doesn't recognize my iPhone. Anybody else having this problem or know a fix?
 
I had this problem, the PC itself would say that my iPhone was connected, and the phone would charge, but it wouldn't show up in device manager or in iTunes. I gave up on it and after a few days I tried again and it worked. That's about all I've got for information on this.
 
Found the solution on hackintosh.org for anyone else having this problem.
1) Using WinRAR (or any other decent archiving program), extract iTunesWindows64Setup.exe
2) Right click on AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi and choose Properties.
3) Switch to the Compatibility tab and check the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" box, and select your only option, "Previous versions of Windows", in the drop-down box.
4) Click OK
5) Double click the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi
6) Tell it to Repair your current installation
7) Tada!
