If i uninstall AMDS, iTunes and all Apple softwares, will all the music i currently have in iTunes delete.., or will it download itself back into the new iTunes?
Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall does not touch your content. That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a backup in case of disasters.

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized.
I have searched high and low and there does not seem to be a way to authorize the iPod Classic. What can I do to sync my purchases to my iPod? I have tried reformatting/restoring it as suggested. It continues to only allow me to sync non-icloud/itunes content.
Help!What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

ITunes and other apple-software | nothing's possible anymore
Hi,
I know there's been some discussion already on several issues with iTunes especially that also cover ONE of my problems but unfortunately the given strategies to resolve those probs didn't work out.
So I'd like to post my problem once more. Since I, unfortunately I can't really tell what I did, I think I did an Update via "Apple Software Update" an my PC crashed, I can't open up any Apple Software anymore. I can't open up iTunes - a message appears "that this action is only valid for products currently installed ". And the worst thing about this all is that I can't uninstall iTunes directly because there is no "uninstall information" and I can't (re)install iTunes or Quicktime or anything else because it is not possible for the installation-routine to uninstall the "old" versions neither...
An Idea: Is there any - let's say -hack to delete iTunes from my PC that the installation routine can be run correctly without trying to uninstall the old version of iTunes that isn't working anymore anyway?
I'd really appreciate some help because I'd like to use my new iPod that is just lying around for about three weeks now.....
Thanks in advance... biboff.
PS: Of course I will provide additional information if needed.Dear Katrina,
thank you very much. Now iTunes is working again.... Sending many thanks to Redmond too... !! Before closing this thread as my problem is solved now, I'd like to update my experience with this MS tool "Windows Installer Clean Up Version 3" so the others users reading this thread might also be able to solve their probs.
So while first running this little "MS Install Clean Up" and deleting "iTunes", the iTunes Installation Routine broke up again afterwards, whilst installing QuickTime.
So I ran "MS Install Clean Up" again and deleted every Apple Product I could think of being connected to iTunes - so far I thought of "Apple Mobile Device Support", "Bonjour" and of course "QuickTime" since QuickTime-Installation was the drop-out of the Install Routine.
I hope I could add some additional information on this issue and again thank Katrina very much for her help. My question was answered and I am enjoying iTunes again at the time. I'm even thinking about switching over to Mac soon.... hopefully something like this doesn't happen on a mac. This even was written using SAFARI, so I'm almost there....
Thanx. -

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I can manually manage content from my personal computer, but I cannot do that on other computers. why is that?

Because this is not and has never been a feature of any iphone.
You can sync or manually mange with one and ONLY ONE itunes library/computer at a time. Syncing/managing to another will indeed erase the current content. -

I have my itunes media stored on my external hard drive. On this external drive I have a folder called "TV shows". I previously cut and pasted itunes TV shows to this folder to free up some space. How do I incorporate this folder (TV shows) back into the itunes library?
assuming the copy files ... when adding option is checkmarked in preferences > advanced, drag the folder into an open iTunes window while holding option (⌥).

Quicktime and Other Apple Software Close Unexpectedly
After installing Quicktime 7.1.6 my whole computer started messing up. Every time I try to open Quicktime it unexpectedly closes before it gets a chance to open. This also happens with Itunes and Other Apple Software, even system preferences closes unexpectedly. However I can open and run photoshop with absolutely no problems. Is there a way to revert to 7.1.5 or a way to restore the operating system to a date before I installed the new version of Quicktime? I know you can do that on windows operating system.
thanks
powermac g5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)I discuss by eMail with a developper of Graphic Converter and he confirm this problem
Really?
The latest version of GraphicConverter (5.9.5) runs perfectly with OS 10.4.9 and QT 7.1.6.
Not that GraphicConverter has anything to do with video.
It's a Quicktime crashes with .AVI corrupted files..
'AVI' can be many things. It is not a codec but a container, and if a file is corrupted you can't blame Quicktime for not opening it!

can somebody help me please?? if i update to the new version of itunes, will it delete the music i already have??
No it will not.
The music is yours on your drive, only you, or malware or a drive crash, can delete that data.
pLeAsE make backups of your valuable data.
Apple makes it's easy in iTunes, File > Library > Backup to Disk Feed it DVD-R's label and data, or use a external drive.
Apple doesn't reinssue downloads. The music is yours you bought it. -
I am trying to update iTunes so that I can sync my new iPhone. I get a message Error 7 (Windows Error 127). I have uninstalled all Apple software and tried to reload with no luck. I have also cleaned my computer's registry with registry cleaning software. Even tried reloading operating system disk to fix errors. Any ideas?
Hello chathamcpa,
I found an article with steps you can take when you are getting Error 7 when opening iTunes. I recommend following the steps in this article:

Experiencing trouble syncing with the 10.3 version of iTunes on my Windows Vista machine. Have uninstalled all Apple software twice, reinstalled and continue to get an error 7 message in connection with the Photo Processor. Any other ideas to try?
Hi,
got it fixed! My Son had both files on his Win7 iTunes installation. Never mind he had no issues whith ths iTunes and iPhone Sync. So I checked my other Win XP PC, where I don't have this problem syncing my ipad, and surprise. Both files do NOT show up on this PC. So I renamed the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe I found under c:\program file\iTunes and synced again my iPhone and it went through without any error. So the problem might be and unremoved iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe or the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll under the iTunes install root folder and this even if I had checked that the folder was completely removed during iTunes unistall.
Please try yourselve and just rename the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe to iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe_ under c:\program file\iTunes or get a copy of the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll and cp to c:\program file\iTunes. -
I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling me I must authorize this computer before it can play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer to play this music?
Thank you for any assistance.Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them: -
My HDD crashed and it contained all of the music from which iTunes and iMatch pulled files from. Is there a way to recover the music from iTunes Match and download it back to my new HDD?
My computer HDD did not crash only my external drive with the music files. I have not had to reinstall iTunes software. The iTunes libarary is still complete and shows the complete list of music. I have also ran Update iTunes Match and all of the music is on the cloud.
I cannot play the music from iTunes that is on the cloud, however the music I purchased from iTunes did download and it will plan from my computer.
The matched or uploaded music is what will not download and I can't find a command that allows me to download from Match.
Sorry if I'm not being very clear, however I do really appreciate your help and suggestions. -
