Apple has really screwed the pooch on iTunes 7.
I am venting, ok.
After spending probably 10 hours rebuilding my tunes library (fortunately I saved it on other disks), I now cannot get the iPod to load the files, and it locks up the PC when it tries.
I just don't know where to go now. I think something like a class action, which I have always been opposed to, may be in order. This is really inexcusable!
J-
I agree. Really bad software. I haven't used my iPod in more than a week because, oh yeah, iTunes 7 wiped it out and turned it into a $200 paperweight. I certainly won't be buying anything from Apple anytime soon.

Apple really screwed the pooch with IOS 6 and iPad wifi
Around 7 PM EDT my IPad 3 disconnected wifi. Every time I tried to restart it I went to some sort of page at Apple which told me the page (whatever it is) couldn't be found and turned off wifi.
I'm really ****** that Apple has demonstrated - intentionally or not - that they can brick our Apple products whenever they feel like it.
So much for not worrying about Apple products or software.
No way will I even look at the iPhone 5 now!I really hope these bugs are temporary because I really liked iOS 5 and on paper iOS 6 seems so much better but bugs are just ruining the experience.

Apple has really dropped the ball with iOS 6
Half of my apps are crashing and it is definitely a lot slower then with iOS 5. Market place lags like crazy and is extremely hard to navigate. Market place app selections take about 15 seconds just to load. My list could go on and on about my unhappiness with iOS 6 but the ones I mentioned are unforgivable. These problems are the reason I switched from android to apple but I guess I spoke too soon

That is all...
I've started to see the error "only a single instance of this app can run" crop up in the last week or so, I suspect it's part of the download manager but I'll look into it. However, I suspect you have installed Flash but there's something that's blocking it in IE. Since you're running IE9, can you first check out your ActiveX Filtering settings? If that looks fine, please ensure that the Shockwave Flash Object is enabled:
1. Open the Manage add-ons dialog
2. Find the Shockwave Flash Object entry and verify that it is enabled.
If you don't see the Flash Object entry, then you did run into a install problem. Let me know and we'll try a few other things.
Thanks,

OK, I'm perplexed. I've been a mac user for almost 30 years. My entire ecosystem is Mac and I remained with mac through the dark 90s. What apple has does in the past 2 years is unbelieveable. I just upgraded to 10.86, then 10.9, no end of problems.
I can no longer mirror and of my monitors VGA or HDMI, my itunes which supplies iphone and ipad has disabled podcast app so that I can't listen to my favorite programs and I find out after the fact that Office software is not compatible with OSX 8.6.
Forget about the fact that itunes looks like it was developed by a 1980s MS-DOS programmer. Its kludgy, limited and generally does not work.
What does one do? Frankly, I used to use macs because they were like info appliances that just worked. Now the time to manage tech glitches from the company has become way too costly. Sadly, Apple has become Microsoft and Microsoft seems to become Apple."... as do the users who are downloading recent OSXs in record numbers."
USUALLY YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU DOWNLOAD UNTIL YOU HAVE IT !!!
APPLE USED TO HAVE GREAT STUFF BUT OBVIOUSLY TRIES TO INVENT FOR THE SAKE OF INVENTING !!!
THIS IS ACTUALLY A STEP BACKWARDS (TO MS).
CALENDAR & CONTACTS SYNC VIA ICLOUD ONLY IS AN ABSOLUTE NO GO !!!
@APPLE: FIX THIS ASAP !!! -
Apple has reportedly delayed the release of iOS 5.0.2
Apple has reportedly delayed the release of iOS 5.0.2, German-language technology blog Macerkopf.de said on Monday. Rumors surfaced last week suggesting that Apple was preparing to release the update, which is expected to address poor battery life with iOS 5, out of the door before the end of this week. Macerkopf.de said iOS 5.0.2 has been delayed to fix “address-based memory leaks,” or bugs that cause apps to consume memory without releasing resources once they are no longer needed. A new release date for iOS 5.0.2 has reportedly not yet been scheduled.
I saw it when i searching the web again today Apple has reportedly delayed the release of iOS 5.0.2

I purchased the One to One when I bought my MacBook Pro, and I sent it in to Apple in order for the pictures and iTunes to be transfered. When I got it home no pictures or iTunes files were on it. What do I do?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you already set up your Mac when you sent it, you should know that Migration Assistant creates a new user with the migrated data. Go to > Log Out, and log in the new user -
So I was installing the most recent version of iTunes (11.1.3 or something) with the Apple Product Updater and it was taking forever to install. I decided to exit becuase I had other things to do in iTunes which had closed due to the installation process. To speed up the process I brought out Task Manager and just ended the task and it disappeared.
Now iTunes is gone from my normal app search and if I go into the C:// Drive I can open iTunes with the iTunes folder located there (it doesn't have some file that lets it communicate with my device) but the iTunes folder in C://Program Files is completely wiped and I don't have access to it even though I'm the administrator of my computer with all-access. I opened the properties of the folder and it's 0 bytes. I tried uninstalling it via Control Center but unfortunately it encountered the same problem; it said I needed access to the C://Program Files/iTunes folder.
There was a try again button but no option to override with administrative functions. I tried deleting the folder in the C://Program Files but I had no access. Is there ANY WAY out of the situation without a complete OS reset? Please help.
If you want I can provide images of anything you like.Does this help anyone? Can anyone tell if anything's missing? Because for the moment the whole of iTunes is rendered unusable for me.

It appears that Maverick has banishd the ability to highlight, in color, file folder names, replacing the color highlight band with a hard-to-see color dot. Is there a way to get the color-band highlight ability to operate?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Apple has replaced that feature in OS X Mavericks by color tags, so you cannot get it back. The only thing you can do is to send feedback to Apple about it, so they will think about including it in future OS X versions > http://www.apple.com/feedback -
have just updated to ios 6. this has really screwd up my contacts. how can i get back to where i aws???????
Hi ckuan,
Thanks alot for the advice - great to see there are so many helpful people out there . Anyway, I followed your instructions and although some of the apps transferred from i tunes to my iPad the first time, unfortunately some of the apps that I selected to transfer (which were purchased) did not transfer. There were only a few but it would have been great to have got them back onto my iPad!
Chow for now! -
My apple tv keeps losing the connection to iTunes.
apple tv keeps losing the connection to itunes
Hi I have all my appletvs set to NEVER SLEEP - go to your appletv settings/general/sleep after and choose never sleep. Since doing that I have had no problem with them. Also I leave my 2010 macbook pro running itunes and permanently on and open - it is my main homesharing disk. I give it a sleep every now and then when not using appletv.
Try that first anyway. -
I'd like to gift a friend an album, but he already has most of the tracks. So I was wondering if itunes would charge me for the complete price of the album or the 'complete my album' price.
You will be charged for the entire album. The Gifting feature is not recipient-specific, so it would have no way to know that a particular recipient you might be sending to would already have the album. Why not just gift the songs you know your friend doesn't have?
Cheers,

Hate it! Anywaze, suggestions welcome that can permanently remedy the issue without having to go through file by file, song by song to make copies, renaming, resetting, etc. Thanks so much.
Are you dragging the entire iTunes folder across in Finder (which is easiest)?
