When I plugged my phone into the computer & I opened iTunes nothing happened. So, I clicked on my Hard Drive I made a shortcut to my desktop for my HD. When I opened it up on the left side my Phone was there and I clicked on it and this is what I saw. 

The new button layout on the new OS is Fresh. It has a new bold look to the computer. from Emptying your trash to saving Docs it is great.
