After Downloading 10.4..my itunes wont even open on my computer..anyone know the solution to this?

After downloading 10.4 my itunes wont even open on my computer..we have tried different things to see if it will open, downloaded it again..and still it wont open.

try running as administrator -- a temp solution for me anyway. Waiting for apple to fix whatever this is. At least one other poster here had same problem and "solution" worked for him as well.

It may seem simple, but restart both devices.
on the iPhone hold the sleep and home button until the phone rests (soft reset), then restart the iTunes app. Then plug the phone back in then sync again.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Hi,
What version of the OS did you upgrade from ?
Anything before OS X 10.8.2 may have an issue if the Logic/Mother board has been replaced and the Serial Number not "flashed" back to it.
In the Apple Icon menu use the About this Mac item.
In the new panel click twice on the line that tells you the current OS level
It will change to the Build number (and alternative count to the OS versions) and then the Serial Number.
If it is missing you need to get it replaced.
(It is supposed to be done on Repair or Refurbishment).
An Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider as the best choices.
There are apps you can download (They are Mac Model specific) but needs careful typing as it is a once only trip.

I have made a calendar in iCal on my MacBook Pro, but I cannot seem to find out how I can 'download' that same calendar on my iPhone and iPad. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance.

Try sliding the words up/down to activate the various modes.

Itunes wont even open. Double click = hour glass spin then nothing..

I'm having a problem with itunes8. When I doubleclick on the desktop icon, or access itunes from any shortcut or the direct EXE the mouse cursor turns into the hourglas for about 3-5 seconds, goes back to normal cursor, then nothing happens. itunes wont even pop up. I get no error messages, and I DONT get the BSOD like most are reporting problems getting. I get NOTHING at all.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled with the newer updated itunes8 installer and that still will not work. I also had itunes 7.7 downloaded from the other week before 8 was released, it does the same thing. It wont run either..
I was on the line with tech support last night (iphone tech, not itunes tech; they were closed) and we tried removing ALL startup items, installing, ect and it still did not work.
Does anyone have any idea whats up?

Yes, I've tried that guide..
I spent 3 hours with tech support over the last few days and they have no idea what it could be
I've also:
disabled firewalls completely PLUS adding all Apple applications to exception list just in case
done COMPLETE uninstall of ALL apple products plus used microsoft install cleaner then reinstalling
tried booting up with NO startup items whatsoever and no services except microsoft services
Installed quick time separately first, then itunes
tried installing itunes 7.7
I thought MAYBE it was because I'm running a custom version of XP (Bariski edition) so I installed itunes 8 on my other computer which is running the plain old XP SP2 from MS and it actually did the exact same thing. It "pretended" (as i like to say) to load itunes then never popped up.

My apps will not download to ipad2 this is something that has just recently happened.Have switched the pad on and off holding buttons down but it makes no difference.Has anyone got the solution to this problem Thank you.

Has anyone got the answer to this problem please or do I need to take it into an Apple store Thanking you.

If all of that stuff checks out - and iTunes is telling you that the apps have been downloaded to the iPad - try this.
Connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Right click on your iPad name on the left side of iTunes under devices and select Transfer Purchases from the pop up menu. Then sync with iTunes again. Don't eject the iPad yet. If you still don't see the apps on the iPad - click on the Apps Tab in the iTunes window on the right and see if they show up on any of the iPad screens. If they do - make sure that all of the apps are selected (checked) to sync - (checkmarks in the boxes next to the app names) - check to make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked and as well and then sync again. You may have to click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes if the apps were not selected to sync.

I cannot view the option to enable itunes match on my iphone 4s, does anyone have a solution for this?

I have an iPhone 4S wi iOS 5.1 installed and I can't view the option to enqble iTunes Match under the Music menu. I have subscribed to the service and it works fine on my iPad. Does anyone have a solution to this? Can anyone enlighten me as to what's going on?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, that's exactly where I was looking, and that option to turn iTunes Match on/off was non-existent, however, I don't know what happened, it just appeared and is working fine.
Thanks!

Following the most recent IOS IPhone update our Iphone calendars, contacts and messages have all merged. This problem has never happened before. We all use the same Itunes account as a family and one AppleID. Does anyone know the cause of this problem?

We have 4 Iphones. As a family we have happily shared the same ITunes account and one AppleID. After the most recent iPhone IOS update all our contacts and calendars have merged and we randomly receive some messages that one of us has sent to another contact.
This is causing chaos.
Can anyone help me with:
1. Has anyone experienced a similar problem recently?
2. The records to the individual phones have not been saved been saved separately. After this merging of all the data into one composite record, is there anyway to reverse the change and restore the phones to just their individual records?
3. I guess that the cause may be the common AppleID. I have tried to create my own AppleID but my personal email address is already linked to the existing AppleID so I am blocked from setting up a separate AppleID in my own name. Does anyone know how I can get around this block?
4. Would it be better to create a separate Apple ICloud address for each of us as well? How do I do this?
Many thanks in anticipation,
Peter

This is exactly what happens when sharing a single Apple ID for iCloud and iMessage. Why would you expect any different?

Hi, i have a gopro and imovie11 wont let me import my hd videos. does anyone know the reason for this? i shoot them in hd but when i try to import them in hd it wont let me, please someone help me?

i have a gorp and i need help importing my hd videos that i know i shoot in hd, to imovie 11. it wont let me click on them, there transparent and it wont allow it. can someone help me figure this problem out?

Hi Ken,
I had the same problem importing from my Gopro. The solution I found was to open the movie using Quicktime. Select "share" from the menu at the top of the page, then select iMovie. It will convert it to a readable format as it loads it into iMovie. Don't know why Apple makes a simple task so unintuitive.

ALL of your music should be on your computer in itunes. Is it not?
How did it get on your ipod in the first place if not from your comptuer?
Everything on your ipod should be on your computer and you should be syncing regularly.

HELP!!!! Itunes wont even open, no point to Ipod can't put music on it.

Ok, first of all I have tried EVERYTHING. I've tried reinstalling, uninstalling, redownloading, that anti-spyware program ewido or something? i've tried running Msconfig, I've tried windows compatibility, I've tried deleting the temporary files folder. I've tried removing Quicktime and windows. I've tried installing older versions of Itunes. ITUNES WILL NOT RUN. I just got a brand new Ipod video and I can't put any music on it because i can't install itunes. When I try to open Itunes i get a window saying "ITunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvience."
Now, there is one thing i've noticed if this helps...it does not appear that Quicktime is installed. Its not its own program in the Add/Remove programs list. But there are quicktime processes running in the task manager. Is there any way i can put music on my Ipod without Itunes. I dont care for Itunes, i just want to be able to use my Ipod. Please anyone, any help would be great! I need to figure this out. Thanks

One solution is as per roaminggnome's suggestion - copy it from the old computer.
The other way is to get an app such as Senuti (iTunes written backwards...!) and it will let you move music from the iPod to the Mac.
