Try this from MacFixIt as well:
In the case of drive directory damage or problems with permissions, the solution is usually to use Apple's Disk Utility to repair the disk. Of course, you won't be able to perform this operation normally (simply launching the Disk Utility application, located in Applications/Utilities, and initiating a disk repair) if your system will not startup. So two options exist:
* Insert your Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) media (DVD or CD) and restart the computer while holding down the "C" key. Once the computer has booted from the installation disc, select "Utilities" from the menubar and open Disk Utility. Repair the disk, then quit Disk Utility and restart your system.
* Alternatively, you can repair the disk while booted in single user mode if you do not have access to a retail Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) DVD/CD. To startup in single user mode, hold down the "Command" and "S" keys simultaneously at startup. Once properly booted, type the command fsck at the prompt. Repeat these process until no errors appear.

I downloaded Aperture and now I'm getting a "There was an error opening the database for Library " and I can't do anything else. How can I fix it so I am once again able to run Aperture?

I Downloaded Aperture from the Apple Website then proceeded to download all my picture's frp, IPhoto. The very next time I opened Aperture an error poped up stating, There was an error opening the database for Library "blank". I can't do anything with the program but hit the cancel buttom which closes the program. How do I fix it?

Is "blank" the name of your Aperture Library? If not, then Aperture is pointing to the wrong Library. Hold down the option (⌥) key while you launch Aperture by clicking it in the Applications Folder. Then select the correct library and press the "choose" button.
If that does not help, try to repair your library:
Locate Aperture library in Finder. Holding down the keys option (⌥) +command (⌘) and double click on Aperture Library to show the First Aid dialogue:
Then try to start Aperture again. If that also should fail, try the other steps in Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
Good Luck

I have taken all apple products off my computer per other suggestions, I have run malwarebytes with no viruses found, and have even tried installing itunes as a different user on my computer but get the same message everytime.

Why did i loose all my apps and music from my phone when i updated it?

WHY did i loose all my apps and music from my phonewhen i updated it?

Without knowing all of the information we can only guess .... And my guess would be that you did not have the apps selected to sync from iTunes on your computer. If the apps are in iTunes on you computer, select them to sync and sync again.
Connect the iPad and sync again - if you auto sync. Then after the iPad syncs the first time - leave it connected to the computer and select the iPad from the left sidebar under the devices heading. Click on the Apps Tab in iTunes. Select each app (click on the boxes next to the names), then click on the Apply button in the lower right corner of iTunes. Make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked as well.
If the apps are not in your iTunes library - if you had never transferred the purchases - you will have to download them again via the purchased tab in the App Store on your iPad. Make sure that you use the same ID to redownload the apps that you used to buy them with.

See:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
Basically you will have to transfer its contents to the new computer and then restore the iPod and then resync. An iPod can only sync to one iTunes library.
BTW you posted in the iPod touch forum.

If your phone is in recovery mode, all data are gone. Connect the phone to iTunes on your computer and restore.

Just got back from Paris and Israel and this update got my iphone 5 in recovery mode !!! please somebody tell me that I did not loose all my pics and videos !!!

Please somebody help me !!!! I just got back from Paris and Israel and this update got my iphone 5 in recovery mode. I can't loose all my pics and videos from my vacations ??????????????????????????????????

NOO it's not broken it is a software error. What you need to do is put your phone into what is called DFU mode or Device Firmware Upgrade Mode. What you have to do is connect your phone to itunes but do not start the sync process. Ignore any popups from itunes initially. When you are connected to itunes take your phone and hold down the home button and power button at the same time. Hold them down for about 30 seconds or so and you should see your device screen rollover to the black screen and disconnect from itunes once this happens it will reboot and automatically connect to iTunes, after this happens start the restore process through itunes and it should continue past the error message.
* Also before you do this try ejecting your sim card if you have the at&t model if you are on Verizon ignore this. There is a small oval port on the right side of the phone with a small pinhole. Use a paperclip and insert it into the hole, the door will pop open. Take the door out, remove the sim card and wait 5 minutes then return the sim card back into the phone and begin the above process.
If none of this works you may just want to bring it the genius bar and have them look at it. Good Luck and I hope this helps!

I am trying to get the updates for CS5 and I keep getting this message "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." What does this mean?

I am trying to update CS5 through the CS5 application. I hit "updates" in the help menu. It goes through its series of updates and then says " There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later."
I have no idea what this means. Of course, I have retried this….but to no avail. Can somebody help me?

Please do a forum search. I and others have repeatedly answered this question a whole bunch of times recently.
Bottom line: the Adobe auto updater is utterly useless in CS5 and prior versions. You need to download the updates and apply them manually yourself.
I and others have even supplied the links for Mac and Win, which you haven't even bothered to specify.

HT4972 When trying to update to 5.1.1 it tells me to do it on the computer i initially used with this ipod 4th g. This is the computer i used initially. It says i will loose all my music and i don't want to do that. HELP, Ashley.

I can't seem to get my ipod 4g to recognize that this computer is the computer i initially used to start this brand new. It tells me i will loose all my music. Help please, I guess I'm just stupid!

If necessary:
- Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party progrtam like one of those discussed here:
Copy music
--- When everything is on your computer, connect the iPod to your computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
--- Restore the iPod from that backup
Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.
Sometimes a computer glitch causes the iPod to see the iTunes library as a new one.

I have attempted about five times to download the update for itunes and each time it tells me there was an error downloading to try again. Help:)

I have attempted to download the update for itunes and I keep getting an error. Suggestions???

Are you trying to RUN or SAVE the download?
Make sure to choose SAVE.
Also, are you current on all your windows update packages?
And what is your internet connection - is it wireless, or wired?

Software update says I need to do the lastest update which I have tried to do at least 6 times. It downloads the software, the computer restarts, it starts to finish the download and then says ' there was an error in installing the software" What is up?

Software update says I need to download MacOS 10.6.7. Each time I try, I have tried 6 times, the software downloads, it has me restart the system, it then writes the files to disk and then I get an error measage that "there was error in installing the softare. Anybody have this problem and how do you fix it? I am running 10.6.6

Try this before trying to install the update.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If you still have a problem then I suggest you download the 10.6.7 Combo Updater and install it.

HT203200 Itune did not download all my music and I paid for it

HT1918 If I delete my Itunes acct and reopen, will I loose all my music and apps?

No matter what I try, I cannot get my iphone itunes email to match what I have changed it to in itunes. I have spent all weekend trying all I read how to.

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

I've just updated my iTunes and now it won't open

, It says; "This copy of iTunes is corrupt or not installed properly, please re-install iTunes". Will i loose all my music and apps if i do?

Try opening iTunes in "Safe Mode" (without external plug-ins) and see it the problem persists. To do this press Command+Option (while opening iTunes).
If you decide to remove a plug-in, they are in your Library folder -> iTunes folder -> iTunes Plug-Ins.

I just updated my itune on my PC and now it doesn't start. There was no error in installing/upgrading the software but once I rebut the computer the icon appeared but it wouldn't start the program. Did I loose all my music and data?\
