The solution for wireless syncing not
working and devices not showing up is almost always just to kill the Apple
Mobile Device Helper process, both in OS X or Windows.
Launch ?Activity Monitor? (found in /Applications/Utilities/
Select that process and then click the red ?Quit Process? button
Leave Activity Monitor and then relaunch iTunes
Confirm the process is to be killed
Hit Control+Alt+Delete to summon the task manager then choose
the ?Service? tab
Locate ?Apple Mobile Device? OR ?AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe?
(depends on Windows version)
Right-click and restart the service, or select it and choose
?End Process?
Relaunch iTunes again to find the iOS device visible via wi-fi
Remember, you just want to restart the
process either manually or by killing it, you do not want to disable the Apple
Mobile Device service completely or else your iPhone or iPad will never show
up.
