Broken chain picture links on my itunes store account

When I pull up my iTunes store there are no pictures and instead there is a grey outline of where the picture should be and a broken chain. What does this mean and how do i fix it??
Really annoying!!!

Thanks Nick - but why is the iTunes Store okay on the other (main admin) user's account running off of the same HD? I think it's a Quicktime (component) thing but don't know why and still don't know how to fix the broken link problem in my iTunes Store account. Have re-downloaded QT 7.5 but still no joy. It seems that all the QT components are there and okay when logged into the main user's account but when I switch to mine all the QT components have "no entry signs" on them presumably meaning that I do not have the correct permissions to access them. Have tried changing all the 'Sharing & Permissions' preferences to 'Read & Write' privilege's but to no avail. Have also tried copying duplicates of all the components through the sharing folder but it just reverses the problem. Have also tried copying all the QT components through my iDisk but again no joy. They just seem to turn into 'folders' with "no entry signs" icon'd on them. Arrrrgggghhhhh!!!

  • Auto-Link-Load to iTunes store, broken in FireFox

    You know how on a webpage there could be a link to the
    iTunes store, and you click it, and it opens a new page
    and for a fraction of a second you see this message...
    "One Moment Please.
    Connecting to the iTunes Store.
    Loading
    If iTunes doesn't open, click the iTunes application icon in your Dock or Windows Task Bar."
    and then it automatically opens iTunes ? (and goes to the item your were looking for)
    ---> Well, my problem is, this process will open the previous version of
    iTunes (the verison 8.0.2) and not the current version that is iTunes8.1.
    and then that earlier version will say the iTunes library is too new and
    that it can't continue to open.
    If you say to remove version 8.0.2 well, I did that and then I get this
    File Not Found message in FireFox...
    "Firefox can't find the file at itms://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=blahblahbl ah-mscache=1."
    Any ideas of what is going wrong here and how can I fix it?

    Still haven't been able to resolve this.
    Links to iTunes music store or AppStore produce an error in Firefox on my system.
    For an example of the "Link" and action I'm talking about, please visit here... http://www.isynapp.com and click the gray-white "AppStore" graphic badge and it will automatically launch the iTunes application.
    This function is what is not working on my system.

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Care to give a little more information? Like maybe exactly what you're trying to do when the problem happens, the exact error message that appears, how long its been happening for, what steps you've already tried, etc.
    These types of details can really make a difference when asking others for good troubleshooting. Since you are on a Windows computer though, a good place to start is these articles:

  • Can multiple iTunes Store accounts be linked to one iTunes Library

    Hi there! I'm having trouble getting a clear answer to this question. If I'm being confusing, forgive me. We are a family of three with two iPod Touches and one older iPod. We recently purchased a new iMac and I migrated our common iTunes Library to the Mac. We won't be using to PC anymore. There are three separate accounts on the Mac but all of them point to the same iTunes Library.
    Up until now, we have been using my Apple ID/iTunes Store account for all purchases. I would like to set up a separate iTunes store account for my daughter so she can use all the gift cards she gets to make her own purchases. *If I give her a separate iTunes Store account, can whatever she purchases go into our common library?* I don't want to her to lose access to all the apps and music we have already accumulated.
    If both accounts can download content to the same library, can I expect any problems when I sync the different iPods? All of them are set up to sync manually so that we can choose which music playlists, movies and apps go to which device. Will my daughter have to sync her iPod twice -- logging each iTunes store account once -- to get all her content? Are there problems with updating apps?
    Sorry this is so long! I keep getting the same answer from an Apple tech via e-mail but it doesn't address the exact points of my concerns! Thanks for any help you can provide.

    We have several macs, several ipods, a couple of iphones, several itunes store accounts. So far no problem. You might have to share passwords if you want to share content. I think iStore accounts can only be used on up to 5 computers. We have 7, so have to be a little careful about that. I don't think there is a limit on how many iDevices can be used with one account. I also don't think there is a limit on how many accounts can be used on a single computer (might be wrong about that). You have to be logged into the iStore to download content, and your computer has to be registered with the account to use the content, but once it is on, and registered, syncing to an iPod is not a problem (you do not have to login in again for each account the content was purchased from). I'm just glad I only have two kids, and one wife - things could get trickier in a big family with . . .

    Hi Michael,
    Yes it is now resolved but not after I send iTunes a request for help and explaining the problem.  They send a first reply explaining how I needed to verify my account and gave me the link to do that.  You and I know that this did not help, so I replied telling them that this was not working and iTunes did the reset for me.
    You may want to open a help ticket with iTunes help.  That is the only way it works.

  • Best way to  setup 2 iPods, 1 MacBook, 1 iTunes store account?

    I just got a iPod Nano (2nd Gen) for Christmas. My wife has a MacBook and a 30GB iPod Video as well as the iTunes account. We've been sharing her iPod but now she says I've got to get my stuff off since I've got my own. We have alot of CDs loaded into iTunes that we both like and also some stuff that only one of us likes (CDs, podcast, etc.). I want to just use her MacBook and iTunes Store account to manage my iPod (until we can afford to me a mac) but I'm not sure how's the best way to do that. I have my own user setup on the Macbook but don't have any access to the music at this time.
    Suggestions?

    There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Just to summarise what's in the link above which is a little out of date:
    Method one is to have individual Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you completely separate iTunes Music folders and libraries.
    Method two is to set your preferences so that any or all of iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library:
    Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Mac
    Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
    Another option when using a single library is to set any or all of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
    Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. You can read more about playlists at these links:

  • How do you cancel an itunes store account?

    I need some help here. Im trying to cancel my itunes store account as I don't use it anymore but keep getting charged a $1 weekly fee. I know its only $1 a week, but it's still a waste. I cant find a link anywhere to cancel the account so any help would be great.
    cheers
    Message was edited by: operon

    You do not get charged anything unless you make a purchase in the iTunes store.
    When you first create your account, there is a $1 hold (not a charge) placed on the account, which is used to simply verify the credit card account. This is released, usually within 24 hrs.

  • One iTunes Store account, two computers, really need help!

    Ok, I have just one iTunes store account however i had 2 different computers i used to download the music. my home computer was originally the one i used but then when i moved, i lost internet so my boss let me use my work computer. however after about 5 years of collecting music on that computer my boss got sick and abruptly sold the business. sadly my music went with that computer. I need to find out what to do to get my purchased music downloaded to my laptop now that i have internet. it was all under the same account just downloaded to my work computer instead of home since homes didn't have internet at the time. what can i do?! I've lost all that music! i can see on my account where i purchased it, but i can't seem to get it on my laptop now! please help!!

    the following post by Zevoneer, though slightly off topic, says it all:
    Did you *back up* your purchases before you you reinstalled your system? If you erased your drive then the purchases will have been erased along with everything else. If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from (as you are advised to do) then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    *You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download*. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link you'll be able to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
    If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

  • Can't verify iTunes store account...

    Hi guys!
    i can't verify my iTunes store account. iTunes tells me that it send an email with a link for account verification...but it doesn't. I've created another account and same issue came. Every time i want to sign in...a msg box appear and says i need to verify my account, then i hit resend..(i tried several emails) and i get no email.
    Any one know whats the problem?

    Try creating a new account and entering in a credit card number. this worked for me and there is no verification needed.
    hope this helps.
