This message is for Bill L. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting the solution to the "apple mobile device helper" I tried it and it worked first thing! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

The Issue I was having with this with itunes 8, was that i kept getting SPAMMED with errors from applemobiledevicehelper.exe that it had stopped working as soon as i plugged in my Iphone 3G to the USB and itunes started up and syncing began.

Solution: Went to Control Panel and found the Apple mobile device helper installation under Control Panel ===> Programs and Features and right clicked and pressed repair....NOW it diddnt work the first time, but i did not give up:P and I went crazy and tried it again:P..hehe and WHABLAM problem solved!!!

My OS is Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit.

Simplefying life is devine!!!

I had the same problems and i couldn't get any advise that worked, so I just opened up my computer, then opened C: drive, found itunes under programs, and used the compatibility tab to run it as if using windows Xp, and just like that my problems were solved, no need to use extensive troubleshooting.
