AppleMobileBackup.exe crashes and I can't update my iPod. Please help!

Help!
When backing up my iPod a file called AppleMobileBackup.exe errors and closes which stops my backing up process. I have a iPod touch first generation (which has MANY apps) and the newest iTunes.
Please help me! I want to update my iPod but if it chrashes and isn't backed up... Well I need to be able to back up the iPod but it fails.

It sounds like you had a computer problem and now the iPod thinks it was synced to another iTunes library.
If you go to iTunes>Prefernces>Advanced yu will see whnere the media library is located. 
Are you logged into the same account on the computer computr login screen, not in iTunes).
The media library is in the directoy with your login.

  • My itunes crashes and I can't open it all. HELP

    My itunes crashes and I can't open it all. Just installed the latest version 10.5.1. I can't even get it to open to try and figure out what is wrong. Can I uninstall it and reinstall the less recent version which was working? Help!!
    I am not a computer guru, the reason that I love my MacBook Pro is that I don't have to worry about it, now I am worrying, because I can't get into my itunes at all. I would trash the new version of itunes and find an older version (I did try reinstalling 10.5.1) as long as I was reassured that I wouldn't lose all my music.
    Thanks all.

    Sorry to hear.
    Wow, first iPad crisis with vs 5 & 501, now this?
    I see the update waiting right now for my MBP, and is why I'm here to see what's up.
    On the software update panel, it's all about cloud service.
    Looks like 10.5 is the end of the road for me.
    I can see having gaming on cloud, but with the work I put into my tunes, no way.
    We'll see how people react as time goes, and the next crisis.

  • Playlist gone and I can't update my ipod

    Hey...I would be so thankful if somebody could help me. My playlist with all my music on it is gone...and I dunno how. But anyways...it won't let me update because it was that the playlist containing the songs isn't there anymore, so there's no songs on my ipod now. I can't find it. Please Help!!!

    First try recreating the iTunes library and see if the playlist comes back. go here to recreat the library http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313.
    Secondly what playlist is this? One that is part of iTunes or one you personally created?

    The master password protects saved passwords in Thunderbird and has nothing to do with connecting to your providers server. You need to work with your email provider if you have forgotten your email password. Go to their email help site and look for a link to reset your password.

  • My podcast isn't updating and I can't figure out why, please help?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm at my wits end and I can't figure out what's wrong with my podcast in regards to iTunes.
    We have a website we update that originally iTunes was pointed at (http://www.whydaddydrinks.net/?feed=rss2) and then iTunes started having issues with not updating. Recently we tried changing the feed of the podcast to the RSS feed for our podcast hosting account at Podbean (http://whydaddydrinks.podbean.com/feed/) and it's running into the same issue.
    I've checked FeedValidator for both feeds and they're fine (http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.whydaddydrinks.net%2F%3F feed%3Drss2 and http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwhydaddydrinks.podbean.com%2 Ffeed%2F). I've clicked the links to the .mp3 files and they play off the web, so, in theory, there shouldn't be any issue as far as I know; Episode 13 shows up in iTunes but dosn't appear to be connected to the file and Season 2 Episode 1 doesn't show up at all.
    Can any of you offer any suggestions as to what the heck is going on?

    Your Store page is at https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/your-book-is-why-daddy-drinks/id515363310?mt =2
    This is using the feed at http://www.whydaddydrinks.net/?feed=rss2 so the other feed URL you posted is irrelevant.
    This feed has episodes up to 13 which contain playable media, and these all show in the Store and when subscribing. However the URL for the media file for episode 13 is
    http://media40.podbean.com/pb/89ea6f327345e33833ff09885e48b8a1/50e904db/data2/bl ogs48/462271/uploads/YBIWDD_Episode13.mp3
    and there is no file at this address. The previous episode downloads OK.
    This feed contains two later episodes but neither has an 'enclosure' tag containing the URL of a media file and so the episodes don't show in iTunes. You are using WordPress to make your feed, and this problem arises a lot - it presumably means that you have failed to do something you need to do in WordPress to get the media file into the feed, but I can't advise on specifics of WordPress.
    The other feed has one of these two episodes, and there the latest episode does have an 'enclosure' tag and the episode appears when subscribing manually; however as I say this feed is not in use by the Store.
    So you need to do with the original feed whatever it was you did with the new feed to get the episode into the Store, and you need to chase the missing media file for episode 13.
    If you want to move the Store to using the Podbean feed you need to follow the procedure outlined here:
    http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/podcast.html#move
    Note that the title in the Podbean feed is 'whydaddydrinks' which many not be what you want.

  • HT4623 i done the new iphone update on my iphone 4 - it has crashed and now has the apple logo on. please help

    I done the update, it then said to plug into itunes - once i plug it in it crashed and now just has the apple logo on. it wont load switch on or off. Please help!!

    Restart computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

  • My iPad air keeps crashing and freezing when browsing the internet . Please help :(

    My husband and I updated to the new OS. Now our iPad Air's keep crashing and freezing whilst browsing the internet.  We have done a reset and swiped away pages but nothing is helping. Its very frustrating Can anyone help? Thank you Jo

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, confirm that this is what you did for a "reset."  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Mail Crashes and shuts down whenever downloading e-mail - Please Help!

    Hallo, I´ve got a serious Problem / Bug:
    Whenever I want to receive mails, Mail app crashes and quits.
    I am using Leopard 10.5.1
    I am able to compose and send mail, but not receive any.
    I found a post about mail.app crashing, which describes a situation when mail quits, because of a smart mailbox referring to an adressbook smart group: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1296368
    I´ve had indeed a smart mailbox referring to a smart adressbook group. And I´ve had a rule referring to a smart group. But after deleting them, the problem persists! The only thing that has changed, is that mail now seems to crash a couple of seconds later. That means, now the crash occurs after downloading about 4 e-mails. Before that the crash regularly occured while downloading the first e-mail. Well its a small improvement, but a crash is a crash.
    I really need help on this! Maybe there is an apple engineer, who can figure this out! Thank you much!

    another hint: mail app also crashes when clicking on an original apple rss- feed-link within mail. Hallo? Whats that? I am not a beta tester!

  • Couldn't Uninstall and Now Can't Re-install. Please Help!

    I've been having problems with Itunes for a while and I am hoping that someone here can help me with the issues I've been facing. Starting from the beginning, Itunes stopped updating. When I would try and update it, it would say I didn't have access or something along those lines. Someone at Apple told me to uninstall Itunes and Re-Install. When I first tried to do that it wouldn't delete. In going to Microsoft support I was told to use FixIt. This did delete Itunes and I was able to delete the other 4 programs in the manner that was described by Apple. In trying to re-install, I have done it 3 times, it continues to say it was installed incorrectly and that it needs to be uninstalled and re-installed. I am working on a PC with Windows 8.1 Pro and have updated Quicktime as that was suggested to someone else. Is there anything else that can be done? I have an iPhone and an iPad and while I guess Itunes isn't a necessity I'd really prefer to have it to sync stuff to my products. Thank you in advance. The picture is the error from me trying to reinstall. No longer have issues uninstalling.

    In uninstalling all the Itunes components again and restarting my computer I got the error below. However I had deleted itunes off and hadn't yet tried to re-install. I won't try again until someone advises me too. Again Please Help! Thank you.
    (The screenshot won't appear here even though it shows it's being uploaded so I will just say it gives me an Error 2 and to remind that this is after I've already uninstalled itunes)

  • While restoring my iPod touch 4G (iOS 6.1.2), after the "extracting software" step, iTunes says that it cant connect to iPod server. Now my iPod is in recovery mode and I can't do anything. Please Help.

    I have Windows 7 installed with the LATEST iTunes software.
    I get this message while restoring and now my iPod is in restore mode. When I try to restore it fails after this message pops up. Please tell me a fix to it.
    1) I've checked my internet connection. All the sites work perfectly.
    2) I've tried it after disabling the windows firewall as well as my antivirus.
    3) I've also tried changes with the "hosts" file in Windows>System32>Driveres>etc.
    NO HELP WHATSOEVER.
    PLEASE HELP.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - Anything else here
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
