AutoPlay Window is NOT coming up when I plug in my iPhone
When I first plug my iPhone to the Win 7 pc, the Auto Play window should come up. But it doesn't. I hear the sound acknowledging my plugging in a device but that's it.
So I go into control panel "autoplay" and set my iPhone to "ask me every time"
I again plug in my iPhone. I hear the sound acknowledging my plugging in the device but no window appears.
Then I reboot.
I plug in my iPhone again. I hear the sound acknowledging my plugging in the device but no window appears.
How do I get the window to appear.
My ultimate goal is to move photos from my iPhone to my PC.

Go here (bottom) in Auto Play and Reset Defaults.
Make sure iPhone is as shown after the reset.
I had to do this on one machine and not the other.

since it gives the notification sound, you should see the Phone in explorer and copy the pictures from there
does the Phone show the message to accept the connection? (not sure of the wording)
No success.
I made the registry setting changes listed in the article.
I tried another cable too (in the off chance I had a bad cable).
I tried resetting all autoplay defaults (pressing the button in the autoplay in control panel.
I'm still hearing the notification sound when I plug my iPhone in but no iPhone icon showing up in the explorer screen. Or any screen. And I'm not getting any pop up asking how I would like to view the device.
Help.

Did it ever work?
Is this a new installation of Windows 7 or an upgrade from Vista?

So now you need to try a Windows 7 Repair Install with the Windows 7 DVD or a working recovery partition. Here is a Seven Forums Tutorial to assist.

4.ITunes is installed.
5."living in the EEC"? I do not live in the European Economic Community. I'm not in Europe. I'm in the middle of New Jersey, USA. Why is Europe an issue?
6.Windows explorer does not see the device.

normally, after you connect the iphone to a pc, on the Phone a windows appears asking if you accept the connection - do you get that ?
Hi Nobus:
I stopped getting that message.
I hear a beep though.

in your case- test this with your iphone on another pc to see if it does the same
so you can define where the problem is - iphone - pc, or cable
i trust you tried another cable? that's the first option

hi Nobus:
Not being detected.
How can I fix my desktop so that it can re-detect my iPhone. In other words, start from scratch.
as i said -first test it on another pc
if it is not detected there - the problem is with the Phone , or cable
did you try another cable yet?

@brothertruffle880 - I suggested a Repair Install for this computer because nothing else you have tried has fixed the issue.

Hi Nobus and John:
I tried a different pc and it was detected sucessfullly.
I tried a different cable on the troublesome pc and same issue. it wasn't appearing.
John:
I definitely read your answer. However Repair install is time consuming and I want to avoid doing anything to my windows PC for the moment.
I'm looking for a registry modification.
