Upgraded iTunes to version 8 and now my computer can't open it

Are there older versions of iTunes still available that I can put back on my computer? I've been using iTunes version 7 for over a year without any problems but after I upgraded earlier this month I can't even open iTunes! My computer is old and probably doesn't have the features needed to run version 8 so is there any way to get older software. Obviously I can't access my music or the itunes store until I figure this out. Thanks for your help.

i am also having problems since i installed the update for 8.0. i have read through these threads and have tried everything that i can think of to get rid of itunes on here.... heres what im getting. when i click on the icon to open itunes i get "this action is only valid for products that are currently installed" ok so i figured something was missing and needed to uninstall and redo it but then i get this message " the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" "Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'itunes.msi' in the box below.... i have tried restoring my computer to an earlier time and its still messed up. I have an iphone and ipod and cannot update my music, can someone please help me get rid of this 8.0 and get the older one back

    upgraded to 5 version and now most of my apps are missing on phone...everything said it its synced. How do I get them back on? Do I hit restore?

    The apps will slowly load from the cloud.  It takes quite a bit of time.  You'll see your apps show up one by one.

    Have you delete any original photos recently?

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

  • I tried updating to itunes 10.5 and now when i try to open itunes i get a message saying "Apple application support was not found" error 2 (windows error 2)

    Ok so I went to update my itunes 9 to itunes 10.5 and now I get and error message "Apple application support was not found" error 2 (windows error 2) when ever I try to run itunes and iv been trying to fix this for like a month and let me tell you iTunes for windows is **** and I really want Icloud for my iphone 4 and yes iv tried uninstalling everything by apple in the correct order and reinstalling them after restart atleast honestly 20 - 30 times but nothing worked so if anyone can please help me I have windows 7 and a hp intel pentium computer 

    Install 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and use one of them to extract the contents of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe installer file, then try installing AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. Even if it won't install you may get a more useful error message as to why not.

  • I upgraded to itunes 10.5 and now the store will not open.

    The bar goes about halfway (between the "g" and "I" in accessing Itunes store) and stops.  I can see words and hyperlinks in the store, but no pictures.  Have tried several of the fixes listed here, but so far none have been effective.  Anyone know what fix is best.  I am at my wits end and do not have the patience to go through every fix.
    Thanks.

    Had the same thing happen to me when I tried syncing my iPhone this a.m. - talked to Apple 7 hours ago and evidently there's an "issue" with the iTunes server. The Apple adviser told me to try syncing in an hour. Well, rather than do that, I've continued to check Twitter, searching on "itunes sync" or "itunes server" - seems the problem's still going on.
    I'm going to wait it out til tomorrow. Or whenever.
    The REASON I was synching is that ever since the iOS 5 "upgrade" photos that were in albums synced from iPhoto had disappeared. Not all the photos, just all the photos in some albums. Weird.
    Too many bugs in iOS 5 (syncing, Bluetooth connectivity, etc.). They should have waited til it was right before releasing it.

  • I upgraded to Mountain Lion and now my computer keeps freezing.  How to fix?

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion and nowmy computer keeps freezing.  How do I fix this?

    I know you have 10.8.4. I'm asking you to download and install a Combo updater. This is not the same updater used through the App Store when you simply upgraded from 10.8.3. And, before you do that I suggest you do this:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

  • I upgraded to Firefox 6 and now when I try to open it, a window says there's already a copy of Firefox open and there can only be one at a time but there is no other copy!

    I was trying to update my Firefox profile from my old computer and it didn't work and as I was in the middle of that process I was prompted to upgrade to Firefox 6 which I did. But now when I try to open Firefox, it won't let me because it says there's another copy already open. I have taken everything related to Firefox except the brand new version of it I just downloaded off my computer and I still get that message. What should I do?

    I have a similar problem; but I think the cause of the "already running" message is that my computer crashed.
    I rebooted before I learned to look for the parent lock file, but even when I knew to look for it, I found my original profile folder to be empty.
    So I created another profile folder, and FF works, but I cannot access my old profile folder. When I open the location where it should be, nothing's there. But if I go to profile manager, I see my original profile is still there (and it has a location, it's where it should be - and where it's invisible, but even if I type in this location, nothing comes up).
    I tried making all folders visible (I run Windows 7), but this did not make my old profile visible.
    I want to find it because of the bookmarks I bookmarked recently.

    You need to plug it into your computer running iTunes and restore it. Have you tried that? If so, what happened?

  • I Installed ITunes, and now my computer can no longer find my CD-Drives?

    WTH is going on?

    I would suggest that you start by performing a "factory default" reset on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX). Once completed, you should be able to access the AX via the AirPort Utility. Note: Be sure to first connect to the AX's wireless network BEFORE accessing it with the utility.
