  • After having upgraded my MacBook to Snow Leopard, the following error message pops when I try to access iTunes: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a new version of iTunes".  I cannot now access iTunes.  How can I resolve

    After having upgraded my MacBook to Snow Leopard, the following error message pops when I try to access iTunes: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a new version of iTunes".  So, now after the upgrade, I cannot access iTunes.  How do I resolve this??
    Thanks

    zepel has it, but perhaps some more detail will help.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Why do I get error message 1712 when I try to open my iDVD files

    I am really new to this, so forgive a stupid question...but why do I get an error 1712 message when I try to open my iDVD files in My Documents? What have I done wrong? Also, I was told that it is impossible to completely delete an iDVD project in iDVD06 accidentallly, but I think I proved it can be done. How do I go about finding it again? Thank you from an old grammy.

    OK, I`m a PC user, not MAC (but I have an IPhone 5 and Ipod Touch). I am using a Hewlett Packard HP Z 800 Professional workstation with 32 GB of RAM. My graphic card is NVIDIA GTX 670, the "monitor"" is a brand new SONY Bravia Full HD Televison set, connected by HDMI cable, 1.4  HDMI standard. Because the Iphone is new, I happened to browse the Itunes Shop and purchased the first episodes of the NIKKITA series. Runs perfectly. Yesterday I therefore invested into a larger bibliotheque of movies and single episodes of series.  Not ONE single item is running on any of my 5 computers. (All run Windows 7 64 Bit and the newest Itunes version is installed).
    Because I always was a PC User, in principal pay for downloads but also in principle boycot DRM disabled items for the very same reason I experience now (DRM is blocking the legal use, not the illegally downloaded and  cracked  versions), I might have misunderstood the message circulating some time ago, APPLE aborting the "DRM abuse". Legally the situation is an "inverse ripping" situation. Not the mean illegal downloader of copyrighted material damages the poor starving author or movie industry, but the industry is damaging (or preventing) the use of perfectly legal purchased materials and sold non funtional material, which is against all laws in the world. I`ll  remember it when they againn complain of decreasing sales and the end of the world. For myself the solution is not to purchase ANY of those bogus video, music or software files until any disabling software codes or hardware features are removed. If APPLE wants to do me a favor they could indicate if video files are HDCP -impaired or not or contain any other uninvited "user" of my property. (Of course my equipment would be HDCP ready. However I am not.)

  • Error message -3221 when I try to access iTunes Store

    Greetings! iTunes does not recognize my iPod Touch, and I cannot connect to iTunes Store or obtain access to the content on my Touch. I just really need to find a way to make contact with the Touch to add and delete files. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. The trouble began when RealPlayer intruded into iPod downloads from various web sites. I uninstalled Real Player so that it is not now installed. I am new to an iPod Touch having received it as a gift. I will appreciate help with this issue.
    eulogostheos

    My gut feeling would be to try completely uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling. It may be that RealPlayer tinkered with a registry setting somewhere which wasn't reset by installing it.
    Obviously, if you have lots of content in iTunes you want to keep you'll have to ensure you back that up.

    Hey jeight26,
    When you uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, did you use this article?
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    If you haven't already done these steps, this section contains information that might help your situation, as the order and manner which you uninstall has an effect on the outcome:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

  • I updated my itunes to 11 and found out my phone and ipod were not compatible. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 10.7 but now I get an error message when I try to open itunes saying "the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer verison"

    I updated my itunes to 11 and found out my phone and ipod were not compatible. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 10.7 but now I get an error message when I try to open itunes saying "the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer verison" What do I do?

    Thank you for clarify I'm supposed to read the ENTIRE article. I thought I was just supposed to read the title and magically everything will fix itself. I appreciate you taking the time to help me however I do not appreciate the caps and the way you have addressed the situation. If you are not going to kindly help people/make suggestions just don't try! And for the record my conclusions are not illogical, the iOS7 thing is on the website in small font (which I got by reading the ENTIRE thing) and you should really find a new hobby because your socialization skills need some help! That goes for you too Chris. Not everyone is a tech nerd

  • When I try to open iTunes I get an error message

    I cannot open iTunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and nothing has helped yet. I get the following error message when I try to open iTunes:
    Windows cannot find ‘C:\Program Files(x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. I am using Windows 7 64-bit. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

    It was malware. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\itunes.exe.
    Ack ... yeah, basically it's targeting the Registry key that tells Windows what to do when you click on iTunes desktop icons.
    Glad things are working better, bryant, but given that the last Malwarebytes scan I saw for this characterised the infection as a (Security.Hijack), it might be prudent to check to see if there's any unexplained charges showing up on your iTunes account or any other charges on any credit card you have listed for an iTunes Store account. (I don't know whether or not this one is able to successfully grab any info, but there's no harm in being wry.)

  • "The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    Dear Lawrence Finch: 
    If you're still around I hope you see this message, as you're the FIRST person (after reading every link, thread, other sites, apple support articles, etc.) to mention JB may be causing this iTunes popup window to REPEATEDLY occur:
    "The iPhone software update server could not be contacted."
    No, I did not hack anything (are you kidding?  Grannies don't hack!), but I unknowingly bought a 3Gs iOS 3.1 from ebay that was not advertised as JB.  Since it is like brand new, I was going to keep it (because my old backup is iOS 3.1.2) & was trying to simply restore & update, which (I thought) would remove the JB (that's what everybody says at forums, etc).
    Instead, after "erasing all settings/content" (inside phone's Settings to get the prior person's name out of there), it is now stuck in White Apple Mode.
    Put it in DFU/Recovery Mode & connect to iTunes but that stupid above message keeps appearing & I have already read/tried EVERYTHING to get rid of that message, starting with: 
    1.  OLD phones (3Gs) with OLD iOS 3.1+ should work FINE with OLD Mac (iBook) with OLD OSX (Tiger 10.4.11) with OLD iTunes (9.2.1[5]).  So that can't be the problem.
    Here's all the other things apple & others say to check which I already checked:
    2.  USB ports are FINE, both work FINE, so that's not the problem.
    3.  No "extra USB devices" are connected, ONLY a mouse, & then the phone (yes, I tried it w/o the mouse connected but that didn't help).
    4.  No "usb hubs."
    5.  Latest iTunes for this OSX has already been DL'd (iTunes 9.2.1[5]).  If you know of a newer one for this OSX, please advise.
    6.  No antivirus software.
    7.  No security software.
    8.  No routers; only 1 comcast modem, period.  Wired Ethernet.
    9.  No wifi gadgets, no wifi at all.
    10.  No firewalls, except what is on iBook in the SHARING/System-Prefs. section.  It's turned OFF.
    11.  Did the hosts/terminal thing sudo nano whatever it was.  There were only 3 lines, NO gs.apple.com:
    xxxxx local host
    xxxxx broadcast host
    xxxx local host
    Oh, & btw, ATT officially unlocked this phone (after I filled out their online forms) but I can't finish the process via iTunes to get their Confirmation that "Device is Now Unlocked," so I can use T-Mo.
    So that's it.  If you have any other ideas of what to do from here, since from your comment, maybe it's the stupid JB on this phone that is causing the problem (???), please advise.
    Many thanks!
