    The article says that I should upgrade to the latest iTunes. I am on the latest iTunes version.
    If you could read just a tiny little bit further, under the "Additional Information" section immediately after that, it says:
    If you are still experiencing this issue when syncing, or have not installed Xcode 4 and get this alert:
    Follow the troubleshooting steps in Mac OS X v10.5, v10.6: Resetting the SyncServices folder.
    If the issue is still unresolved, follow steps in Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing.
    Have you tried those measures?

    That is usually caused by a missing unpack directive (<em:unpack>true</em:unpack>) in the file install.rdf of that extension.

  • Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot?  I get a gray "curtain" over the start up screen saying I need to restart my computer but it won't restart.  I just keep getting the same message every time.

    Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot?  I get a gray "curtain" over the light gray start up screen with a message that I need to restart my computer and to hold the power button until it powers off and then press the power button again to restart.  It just does this over and over again and won't restart.

    Yeah, as necronym stated, it is a hardware issue and more than likely a RAM problem. Disconnect everything from the computer except keyboard and mouse and try again. If it still happens try removing one and/or swapping your RAM sticks over. Keep trying until you have eliminated all possible combinations. Just put a mark on one RAM stick so you know what have tried. If it still fails to boot properly you should probably replace your RAM, but that is no guarantee of success. Have a look at this link for more info on a Kernel Panic.

  • ITunes unable to install? - Could not access network location %APPDATA%/.

    Okay, I received a never used iPod Nano
    (Model MC034LL ,Version 1.0. 2 PC, it looks like this http://www.iphonemag.ch/wp-content/uploa…
    for Christmas this year, however; I'm having some trouble installing iTunes.
    I have already downloaded iTunes, but installing seems to be the problem.
    The 'iTunesSetup' icon appears on my desktop and I double-clicked it to begin the installing process.
    When I do so, it says
    "Gathering required information... Status: Computing Space Requirements"
    after a few seconds it says, "Could not access network location %APPDATA%/."
    As soon as I click 'retry' it says the same thing.
    If I press cancel, the same message pops up and then it says,
    "iTunes Installer Completed
    The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured.
    Your system has not been modified To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
    Click exit to finish the installer"
    I tried the help page for iTunes, but noting seemed helpful.

    Could not access network location %APPDATA%/
    With that particular variety of 1606 (it's a 1606 error message even though the 1606 error message number isn't returned by the iTunes installer), the following Microsoft document is worth a try:
    [You receive an "Error 1606" error message when you try to install or remove a Microsoft program|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549]

    Hi davwatto thanks for taking the time to reply.
    ok, so tried to open my safari which was version 5.1.7 and i received the error message:
    safari can't connect to the server
    safari can't open the page http://www.apple.com/startpage/ because safari can't connect to the server www.apple.com
    The same error occurred with whatever site I tried to access, so I uninstalled Safari, then reinstalled version 3.2.3 and this time I got the error message:
    The same error message occurred with any website I tried to access. I am able to access all websites including banking etc on IE and firefox.
    Safari can’t open the page.
    Safari can’t open the page “http://www.apple.com/startpage/”. The error was: “unknown error” (kCFErrorDomainWinSock:10013) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Help menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
    Not sure how to check the logs for itunes though
    If you have any idea how to fix this issue that would be great as im at a total loss.
    Thanks

    Hi there Br0x,
    You may want to try rebuilding the iTunes library as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the article below for more information.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I just installed Itunes on Windows7 x64 and I get the following error...

    I just installed Itunes on Windows7 x64 and I get the following error when trying to open it. "Itunes cannot run because it detects a problem with Quicktime. For repair instructions click Help."  When I do this all it pretty much tells me to do is reinstall which doesn't really do anything at all. Another method mentioned is to download quicktime as a stand alone installer and isntall that version again to no avail. I have no idea what to do. Thanks for your help. I can provide any information needed upon request.  And yes I have uninstlaled completely restarted then reinstalled only to get the error again.

    Good lord.
    Right. Presumably either this one:
    ... or this one:
    ... is at the heart of matters. The second one is the more familiar one. So we'll assume (to begin with) that the first one is a rare complication of the sort of install trouble that can produce the second one.
    Rather than using Revo, I'd like to try using the Windows Installer CleanUp utility to clear the installation configuration information for your Apple Software Update. Unfortunately, doing so has become more difficult
    ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove". Quit CleanUp.
    Now try uninstalling (again without using Revo) iTunes and QuickTime. If those uninstalls seem to go through okay, restart the PC.
    Now try the iTunes reinstall again. Does it hang with that "required module" error again? or does it install smoothly this time?
