Computer froze while updating. iTunes has disappeared

I was updating my iTunes when my computer froze and now my iTunes has been deleted and I can no longer reinstall. I have tried to download iTunes in the most updated version, but I cannot actually proceed with the download. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I have tried rebooting my computer. I have also looked in the Control Panel to see if the program was there, and it's as if the program has completely vanished from my computer. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!

i assume your computer froze during the update operation, leaving your installation in a unstable state. after restart you are not able to access anything. if that is the case, i think the best option is to use a arch installation disk/usb to boot and finish the update.
1. create a bootable meadia - cd/usb and boot using that
2. mount the partitions
3. arch-chroot to the mounted root partition
4. run pacman -Syu
if the above is not the case, please give more details.
thanks

Computer froze while updating - Can't use gnome/cinnamon

Hello
Today I tried to update but then my computer froze. After restarting archlinux I couldn't login into my gnome or cinnamon. I also have openbox installed where I have no access to a terminal.
If I try to use gnome/cinnamon it redirects me to the linux shell. I tried to reinstall gnome/cinnamon but it didn't have any effect.
Any ideas what I can try?
edit
I also have no access to my filemangers in openbox and gnome terminal doesn't work either.

Computer died while updating itunes now it is gone

how can I get it back?

To use itunes to update your iphone you should first ensure you have the most recent iTunes version. Once this version is downloaded to your computer, you will then need to check to see that all anti-spyware programs are uninstalled from a Windows OS you may be using. If you are using a Windows OS that is likely why the itunes crashed (or missing an itunes update) Windows antispyware will stop the download of the necessary file to do the updates to your apple device.
Good luck.

Screen Froze While Updating

At first i couldn't put apps on my iPod so my friend and i started an update on her computer. Then the screen froze while updating. (screen has the apple sign with a loading like bar under it) So we let it go for a couple hours and it still didn't do anything. We unplugged the iPod and it wouldn't turn off! So i let it die and i tried restoring it at my house and i thought it would work but it did not. It had the same screen as when i was updating it and i've about had it. So please, if you have any suggestions, tell me please!!!

My itunes has disappeared from my computer

my itunes has disappeared from my computer, ive checked the location where the program is stored and its gone. i tried to re-install itunes but it will not open. ive checked my firewall, and have restarted the computer a few times and still no luck. any ideas? thanks

It is also possible that iTunes is already running, but something is messed up (and it won't let you run it twice). Open up the Task Manager (cntrl-alt-del) and see if the iTunes process is listed. If it is, right click it and kill it. Then try to lauch iTunes again.
Or - you could reboot.

Here is the fix!

PLEASE HELP! itunes has disappeared from my computer - don't know why

PLEASE HELP!! iTunes has disappeared from my computer. Have no idea what happened. Won't let me download new itunes.

You can probably fix it by running chkdsk, as explained in this other thread. It makes sense, if you didn't remove itunes yourself and it can't be reinstalled/repaired, something went seriously wrong on the PC's hard drive. Perhaps the chkdsk utility can fix it.

Try holding the power and home button untill the apple symbol appears and let it reboot, if that does not work Try a DFU restore https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5269891

After upgrading to the latest itunes, the text associated with syncing a device is gone. The buttons are there but no text. Also the toolbar for iTunes has disappeared.

That's consistent with trouble with the Segoe UI fonts on your system.
If you're using Windows XP or Windows Vista, try Vortical's technique from the following post:

itunes has disappeared from my ipad. how to get it back?

You don't have iTunes (per se) on the iPad. There is a Music app which is an orange icon. Native apps cannot be deleted, but in the event that it has somehow disappeard you could go to Settings > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

My App store and itunes has disappeared from my iphone

My app store and itunes apps have disappeared from my iphone.
I suspect Apple is responsible and is trying to force an upgrade. Does anyone know if this is true? because if it is we should object to this.
The upgrade on my ipad was such a horrible experience, I don't want to do it to upgrade my iphone. (Upgrades have been a nightmare every since the itunes interface was changed. In my view, iTunes is the now one of the most unintuitive interface imaginable - [bar windows 8]. Prior to that it was generally easy to do upgrades and backups without hiccups and the interface was great. Now its too obscure to find what you need to do.)
I have been an Apple fan since the original Apple computer - but am not very happy with recent changes that affect use-ability and reliability.
General grumbling aside - every time you upgrade, you have to reload all of your apps; and a lot of favorite apps won't work with the new system. That's another reason I don't want to upgrade.
Without the App and iTunes application - you can't selectively update the apps you want to update or even access your music.
Questions:
1. Does anyone know why the Apps and iTunes apps disappeared? (I'm not the only one complaining about this.)
2. Does anyone know how to get them back without having to effectively erase your phone and start over?
3. Does anyone know how to get iTunes on the computer to recognize your iiphone when the itunes app disappeared off it?
Thank you.

Hi Dahveed,
Thank you again for the advice. But, rebooting did not help.
In the end I was forced to upgrade.
I am relieved to say that this upgrade went very smoothly compared to other upgrades.
I did not have to re-download apps and they appear to be in their normal folders - except a new app page 2 (after the primary page) appeared containing only the missing apps. This was not there before.
Answer to the disappearing Apple App Store and iTunes Dilemma:
The answer to this problem unfortunately appears to be to upgrade the system.
In my experience the Apps (which presumably are removed to force the user into an upgrade) then re-appear.
On the positive side, at least on this occasion, it did not turn out to be a nightmare make work project.
