Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

If you run into the "another installation" message even after the reboot of the PC (which is an excellent idea by HTP ProXy), reregistering your Windows Installer Service is worth a try.
First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
At the command prompt:
Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
Restart the PC and try another reinstalll.

I have tried several times to install iTunes update 11.1.4 on my PC. I get a message saying that install was not successful and an error message of MSVCR80.dll not present, Error 7, (Windows error 126). I am told to reinstall iTunes, but nothing changes

I have tried several times to install iTunes update 11.1.4 on my PC. I get a message saying that install was not successful and an error message of MSVCR80.dll not present, Error 7, (Windows error 126). I am told to reinstall iTunes, but nothing changes. What next? I've not had this problem with other updates requested by Apple.

I have also had the same problem with my Win 7 32 bit computer. I had great help from Apple techs in Montreal and Orlando for 2.5 hours. They helped me remove every trace of Apple products and clean the registry in two different ways. Each install gave the same problem! If Apple techs can't fix it (on some of our machines) then we are really in trouble. They promised to raise it with the "engineers" and get back to me with a solution. I am waiting and hoping. Otherwise maybe version 11.1.5 will have a fix ??

HT201263 when i follow the steps it does it but when it gets to itunes it says 'iTunes could not contact the iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet' but i am connected to the internet ..?

Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.

Apple TV 2 all of a sudden has trouble streaming. I stream from my desktop computer's iTunes for movies, and tonight it started stopping randomly mid movie and saying it wasn't connected. Any ideas? Router? ATV dying?

It just says not connected, and as soon as it bails to menu, it connects again and will play for another minute before doing the same thing all over again.

Hello David,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your Apple TV is having trouble streaming videos from iTunes on your computer. This symptom could have a variety of causes, and I'd suggest the following initial troubleshooting steps.
In addition to restarting your devices (Apple TV, computer, router), try the tips in this article, starting with "Check your home network:"

All the best,

I updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5c and now it won't turn on and I know it was fully charged any ideas?

Have updated my iPhone 5c to iOS 8 and restored it and now it won't turn on. I have tried plugging it in even though I know it was fully charged, I have shut down my rebooted my computer and iTunes from scratch and reconnected my phone and still nothing, any ideas?

Hello Nikmuz,
It sounds like your screen is either black so it looks like it is not on, or it is just plain not turning on at all and it is also not being recognized in iTunes. I would recommend the followng troubleshooting from this article to help you determine whether that is the case or not, named:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Plug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod.

I have a valid Serial # for Adobe Acrobat XI, and it shows on my account, but when I try to install it seem to automatically go to "Pro" and says that my Serial # is invalid. I need this right away!!!! How can I fix this???

I really need help with this! I have a valid Serial # for Adobe Acrobat XI and it shows on my account with Adobe. When I try to install on my new hard drive it says that the serial # is invalid.. I tried to install the free version to get me out of a jam and it keeps saying that it failed!!!! What can I do?

I am on Windows 7, and I was on Adobe.com. I went to downloads and clicked on Acrobat XI standard. It downloaded. But when I went to run it said Acrobat XI Pro and would not accept my serial number. I have done this now 4 times. I think that the system is downloading the wrong version. I am getting very frustrated and unhappy with Adobe!!!!

I no longer have the gift card that I entered into my iTunes account. The account shows my balance but when I go to purchase a song, it is asking for me to enter the redemption code and not applying my credit.

Some time ago, I entered a gift card into my iTunes account. I did not use it all and the balance shows up in my account. I no longer have the gift card. When I go to download a song now, it is asking for the redemption code instead of just taking the cost from the balance. What can I do?

You simply need to verify your info. Check None under the CC info.
