My iphone 3gs won't connect to iTunes I've tried everything.


reinstalling iTunes
restarting Apple Mobile Device
bought a different cable
restarting my laptop
restarting the iphone
checked for iTunes Helper Services
uninstalled and reinstalled Apple Mobile Device USBdriver


and still, my iPhone wont come up in iTunes but it does come up as my iPhone in My Computer as a portable device.

All I get in iTunes is iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. An unknown error occured (0xE8000084)

I've tried Googling for this error and no one else seems to have it.
This issue is because the iPhone 3GS isn't compatible with the newer iTunes software. I've been trying for ages and the only option I have come across so far is to take the phone to an Apple Store. I have tried everything. I have tried calling apple, chatting with them online and I have even tried to download an old version of iTunes but nothing works. Maybe give apple a call and see if they can give you any advice. Probably will tell you to take the phone into the store
