iTunes doesn't detect iPhone until restarted

[rishio]

Does anyone else have the problem where the iPhone is never detected by iTunes? I have to restart the iPhone everytime I want to sync the iPhone. Is this normal? Any work around for this?

I've never had this problem. Is your phone modded?

No mods on my iPhone. I have the latest version of iTunes and the 1.0.1 version of iPhone software that I had hoped would fix this problem. I just kind of assumed everyone had to restart their iPhone in order for iTunes to sync.

i did uncheck "automatically sync when iPhone is Connected" but I didn't think that meant that the little iPhone icon won't show up in iTunes unless you restart. Anyone else have this problem with "automatically sync with iPhone" unchecked?

I'm going to see if this is the problem..

Since the iTunes, NOT iPhone, update, if I have the phone plugged in, and THEN start iTunes, iTunes has failed to ID the phone. I just reconnect the usb cord and it usually ID's it.
