Can't open control panel, my computer, etc. Help please!

I just did an install of windows 7 on my macpro and everything seemed to go smoothly until it was all done and windows launched, i tried to open the control panel and i get an error message saying that
"Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
I also cannot launch Windows Explorer to simply browse files as it gives me the same message.
Help is much appreciated.

What did you install? and where (edu, ISO you burned, retail) as well as Pro, Ultimate or Home Premium? 64-bit?
I take it this was a complete clean install. Not an upgrade DVD or an upgrade from Vista.
Did you install on its own drive?
Use Boot Camp Assistant (only needed if you put Windows on Mac OS drive).
Tried reboot off the DVD.
And, did you get far enough to install updates and drivers? Apple Setup (Boot Camp, off your OS X DVD)?

Can't open iTunes after iTunes 10 download Help Please?

Could someone pretty please tell me what I can do to get my iTunes open up. I not only have an iPod but my iPhone too!!!! This includes all my business contacts, agendas, calendars are all looped thru iTunes for my iPhone ...

I am having the same issue. I was able to use iTunes to rent a movie, watch the movie, and since then, it shuts down less than 10 seconds after start up. Is there something wrong with the newest version of iTunes?
Can anyone tell me why iTunes is shutting down automatically and what can i do to fix it?

Can not open Integration Directory nor Integration Repository help please!

Hi,
I am not able to load the integration directory and repository java parts.
The funny thing is that it worked yesterday for me, but I re-installed a newer version of Java and it crashed. I have tried to delete all the Java versions and install the version 1.6.0_03_b21 (this version works for my team mates), but I have only found version 1.6.0_03_b07, and it does not work.
I am able to acces to the SAP PI 7.1 portal (http://proxy:port/dir/start/index.jsp), but when I enter here and try to access to the integration directory/repository, I get an error.
Your help is much apreciated. Greetings from Spain!

Windows server 2008 can't access control panel and can't choose "properties" under "my computer"

Hello everyone!
Today after a schedule restart on the night I thought everything was normal with my server. But When i go to "start -> control panel" it show me "empty". And if I try to lunch "change/remove software" via search window in
"start" then nothing happen.
I know also that I can't right click on "computer" and choose "properties" in the start-menu.
Also another problem. I did install Fbackup to make schedule file backups on the night. The software worked well to launch when I had installed it, but after the night, this morning it just crash on launch.
I can also tell that I did add from 4 CPU core to 6 CPU cores.

Hi,
Have you tried to see if the issue persists when you boot into Safe Mode? Since you it shows blank when accessing Control Panel, please check if the policy setting below has been
configured.
Please choose Start – Run - type (gpedit.msc) - click on (Administrative Templates) - (control Panel) -
Prohibit access to Control Panel and Show only specified Control Panel applets. If they were configured, please disable them to see if it could resolve the issue.
In addition, the issue may also be caused by the virus, please run a system scan to see if there is any virus. At this time, you can also launch Control Panel apps from the command
line, and here's a list of .cpl files for your reference that you can print out:
Accessibility Options
access.cpl
Add/Remove Programs
appwiz.cpl

Try removing iTunes, Apple Application Support, and the related Apple software using Control Panel. For a walkthough on the process, check out this Apple document -> Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Then try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from here -> Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now

Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:
