    Hi Dance4Life85!
    I have a couple of troubleshooting suggestions for you regarding this issue. First, I would suggest that you reinstall iTunes, according to the instructions in this article:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11201
    To reinstall iTunes, download it from the Apple Downloads website.
    Apple Downloads website
    Note that all you will need to do is download iTunes and install it again, it will install over the version that is on your computer right now without issue. If your issue persists, you may want to see this article about troubleshooting third-party plugins for iTunes:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3430
    Lastly, if neither of these resolve the issue, then you may need to recreate your iTunes library. More information on this can be found here:

  • Ipod mini 2nd gen 1 gb: not detected by laptop (win 7 64 bit), if detected: error during autofill and cannot be restored, please help :D

    My laptop does not detect my ipod mini (2nd gen 1 gb), when i connect it the orange light flashe 2 or 3 times then nothing happens. if ever that it will be detected by my laptop and when i sync music on it there will be an error and itunes will suggest to restore it to its factory setting and if i choose to restore it error 3194 happens. so my top priority of course is for it to be detected then fix the latter. please help any will be much appreciated

    This is an Answer for a Possible Solution. It worked for me and is still working. The issue I was having with my 64 bit vista, was Apple Mobile Device Service was not being installed, I dont know why. But I disabled any active running program through MSCONFIG, to allow a clean uninterrupted install of ITUNES 8.02. This allowed AMDS and drives from ITUNES to install. Hope this works for most of you.
    APPLE, please review your Support Methods. Re-installing doesnt help an issue that resulted from installing.

  • Systemic error with times and dates across all. please help

    So, having recently made the switch to the world of Apple, I am starting to get my teeth into things - however, struggeling on a couple of fronts. The first and most frustrating for me at the moment is the fact that the time on my messaging and calanders would all appear to be the same.
    When I send and receive messages on skype - they all apear with the same time on them.
    When I open my ical (tried to sync calendars with my ipad2 myself - and initially felt very please with myself) only to find that ALL events had sat as the time...throughout the entire day, and within the event box, the time (the same time as that which appears in skype) appears inside and at the begining of every entry.
    I have tried to change the date and time settings - the clock at the top right of my screen is correct and changes as the hours go by......but still no change in the skpye messaging or in ical.....so frustrating - I use skype as a business tool and at present I am not able to copy and paste peoples messages into anythign else as the time is incorrect.
    Please help

  • Hi, my iphone 5 will not restore through iTunes.  Error codes 2001 and 2006 appear.  Please help.

    Hi,
    My iPhone5 will not restore through iTunes.  Error code 2001 appears and once I received error code 2006.  Please help?

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.

  • The iOS 6.1.4 still haven't solved the problem of updates. Cannot open Updates and feel baddddd! Please help~

    Who could help to answer why I cannot open the Updates? It's really a bad feeling when you got a red number in hte right head of the Appe store app!

    Thanks for the suggestions.
    I swapped with SIM from my wife's.  My SIM worked on her phone but her SIM didn't work on mine.  Ended up taking to an apple store and they restored the phone.  Didn't have a recent backup, so lost a few things.
    After restoring, turning on/off of LTE service choice is available again.  BUT, option to link duplicate contacts not there anymore.  Don't know yet on what other problems are  there.  Very disappointed with the quality of the upgrade.  They are definitely software bugs.

    Trouble opening the free photoshop and illustrator trial downloads, please help!

    Dear Michael,
    In response to your questions, please see below;
    What OS? OS X 10.8.2
    What happens? When i click on the ''AdobePatchInstaller'' i get this message, ''Update Failed, Updates could not be applied. This patch is not applicable for you. Please check for updates from the Help menu in your product to see a list of latest updates available. If the problem persists, contact customer support for further assistance.
    Any error messages? No
    Did you have previous versions of the software on your system? No
    Is the trouble with the download or the installation of the software? I am not sure but i think it may be the download. It shows that the download was complete and icon appears on the desktop.                                                                                I plan to buy the ''Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium'' but i wanted to try it first via the free trials, especially Photoshop and Illustrator. So please let me know what i need to do.
    Kind regards,

    That is precisely what my mid-2010 MacBoook Pro 13 was doing before the drive finally died after an Apple Genius rebooted it a dozen or so times. I have since read about the exact same thing happening to others, including a writer for The Atlantic magazine who had never had an issue with a Mac before. Do a back-up ASAP to make sure you don't lose anything and see about replacing the HDD. It is only about $140 for a new drive. The real issue is if you lose your data, too. So, make sure you do that back-up!

    Thank you.
    <Email Edited by Host>

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
