Any way to manually start or trigger the service? Why didn't the Windows App Store install this service from the beginning?iTunes 12.8.0.150Windows 10 圆4 - latest updates/nothing pendingScreenshots below showing Apple driver and that AMDS Service doesn't exist: 2139 3 I'm guessing this is required for iTunes to see it. iTunes still doesn't detect it.After reading a few support articles I noticed that the Apple Mobile Device Service isn't showing in Windows Services. After the iTunes app is installed, Windows detects the iPod and opens it as a mass storage device (same under Device Manager).I uninstalled and reinstalled that 'Mass Storage' driver under Universal Serial Bus controllers and now I see the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.

I had no issue with the previous manually installed iTunes (from Apple downloads). The software runs fine except that my iPod isn't detecting in iTunes.
