Garageband will not recognize itunes upgrade.

Hi,
I am not sure what happened in the few weeks of not using garageband, however, I opened it today and found that itunes will not load. I get this "open itunes 6 or later to populate this list". I am finding the same message in imovie as well. I could not find any info in the internet. any suggestions would be grateful as i have a) reinstalled iLife. b) repaired permissions. c)reinstalled itunes. d) trashed plists in the preferences. Thanks so much...

Imovie will not recognize itunes

All of a sudden imovie will not authorize my computer to play purchased itunes music, It will not allow an older project to play a song that played 3 months ago., or allow a purchased song to be added to a newer project from my library. Do I have a virus? Why wont the imovie recognize itunes.

You are not alone. The following thread may be of help:

You might try closing iTunes and iMovie and then trashing the files com.apple.iTunes.plist and com.apple.iMovie.plist found in User/Library/Preferences. (The programs will create new .plist files upon relaunch.) Then do a permissions repair using the Disk Utility app on your Mac.
Is it possible that you for some reason changed the name on your iTunes account so that the purchased songs are not recognized as authorized?
Is your iTunes updated to current version? But I would avoid updating to Quicktime 7.5 at this time, as some users have reported problems with jerky playback and out of sync music after the update.
Finally, try posting your question on the iTunes forum and see if those folks have a solution.
Good luck with this.

IPhone 3Gs will NOT recognize iTunes NOR charge with my PC but ....

My iPhone 3Gs (16GBytes white model) will NOT show up on iTunes NOR charge with my PC but it will charge with the wall plug.
My iPhone 3Gs IMEI: 01 203100 586260 3
It is an unlocked iPhone purchased directly from one of Apple store online in Asia.
I am currently traveling in Asia and using a local SIM card.
All of a sudden today, it will not charge on my laptop. It still charges on the wall plug. I suspect that it has to do with me plugging the phone into another public but older PC (running Windows XP) - was attempting to charge my phone but that public PC did not show that it was charging or recognizing the iPhone.
It will not charge or sync no matter what I do. I tried using the power button + home button. I tried holding the home button then plugging in the USB cable. I tried erasing all the data on the phone. All of the above failed.
Now I have the screen where it shows that I have to plug in the USB cable to activate my phone!

I purchased three jam packs back in 2004- new garageband will not recognize, why?

I purchased three jam packs back in 2004, recently upgraded to new garageband program. It does not find the jam packs purchased earlier. How do I get the program to recognize these loops. "Jam Party 1, World Music, symphony.????

If you only upgraded GarageBand and did not deinstall the old version, the Jam Packs should still be installed. Search for all possible locations, where loops could be installed:
GarageBand, Logic: Where loops get installed
Then reindex your GarageBand Loops.

IPhoto will not recognize itunes playlists

I have had this problem for a couple months now where iphoto slideshows and idvd, and imovie cannot find any of the itunes music playlists and the pop-up for slideshows just says "open itunes 6 or higher to populate list" but never does.
I recently upgraded to ilife 08 hoping that that would solve the issue but its still there. After reading some posts online i tried rebuilding my itunes library xml file many times, opened the apps in the correct order, repaired permissions deleted, threw away preference plist files, and even threw away and reinstalled several of the apps. None of them seemed to solve the issue. Anyone have any ideas to get the iapps to see itunes playlists again?? Please help

No, this is a purely diagnostic step. It tells us that both iTunes and iPhoto are okay, there's no need to re-install them and that the issue is somewhere in your main user account.
When the apps interact, iPhoto reads the iTunes xml file, and the problem is in there somewhere, so I would also be posting over there.
All my comments about the iTunes xml file are based on what I've learned about the iPhoto one. They may not necessarily apply.
Where is your iTunes Library? On your start up drive? On an external? If an external, what format is it?
Do you have any non-ascii characters in your mp3 metadata or tags (essentially, anything not a-z or 0-9)

Installations will not recognize itunes.msi

My itunes was installed on my external drive, marked H: . The drive fried, and i am trying to install itunes on my harddrive, C:
I get an error message during installation:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click ok to enter again, or enter an alternate path to the foldercontaining the installation package “itunes.msi” "
I clicked ok to retry—no luck. This error message came up.
"the path c:\documents and settings\owner\local settings\application data\apple\apple software\update\itunes.msi cannot be found. verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package “itunes.msi” "
I found the file "itunes.msi" in Windows\downloaded installations, and I cut and pasted it to c:\documents and settings\owner\local settings\application data\apple\apple softwareupdate\ , and I pressed okay to retry, but even though the file is in the directory, the installer didn’t recognize it, and I got the message, “The older version of itunes cannot be removed. Contact your support group.” So, I had to cancel.
Any suggestions?

When you get these types of message, you usually need to do an installer file clean up.
Here is a method for removal of iTunes and related components with clean up and reinstall.
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

TS1538 my phone will not recognize itunes or charging unit

The other day i notice that the iphone 3gs says this charging accesory is not supported. It is the same charger it came with. It was charging but very slow itunes was recognizing the phone and now its not. While plugged in the phone is draining what battery life it has. I bought a new charger but it wasnt that. i don't know hat else to do. Please help!

Are you using a new ord or the same one from when it did not charge? Is it an Apple ord or from a third party? Try a different cord and see if that works. If that does not help, take it to an Apple store genius bar and have it checked.

Itunes will not recognize my ipod. How do i fix this?

Itunes will not recognize my ipod. How do I fix this?

Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

My mac had it's original software re-installed by Apple. since they did this, my airbook pro will not recognize my iphone in Itunes, and I cannot update the latest version of itunes, because it says I'm not running the latest version mac software????

I my macbook pro will not recognize my iphone. I had the AppleStore, re-install my original software a month or two ago, but since they did this, my computer cannot recognize my Iphone it is telling me that I also need to download the new version of Itunes, but keeps telling me my system isn't running the correct software. When I go to update my software, it's telling me I'm running the latest version??? HELP!!

you need to upgrade your OSX to 10.6.8 or later to sync with the iPhone 5. as you need itunes 10.7 to run Iphone 5

I installed itunes 10.5 and now it will not recognize my phone-

I installed itunes 10.5 last week and now when I plug in my iPhone it will not recognize it. I've gone through all the recommended troubleshooting through Apple's site but it seems to make my computer worse. I re-installed itunes 3 times and it still will not find my phone when I plug it in. When I go to my device manager my "Apply Mobile Device USB Driver" has the little Yellow Triangle with the exclamation point it in- I checked for and updated driver but it says I have the most current one. I am running Windows Vista and itunes was working fine before I took the upgrade. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

I spent last week looking for a solution to that little yellow "!" needle haystack....
It is probably buried where nothing can touch or change it other than what I resorted to and would have saved time, clean install after I made sure to have two backup sets: Windows Easy Transfer plus Paragon clone OS and partitions to drive. Had to spend a full day reinstalling, updates, etc. Careful not to bring back any prefs or data that might be corrupt or wrong.
10.5 and iOS 5 on new iPod 4G works much better though and as they should and no issues like I had with AMS or other services or needing to restart first before launching iTunes.

Itunes will not recognize either my iphone or ipad any more since I've downloaded their latest update. I'm working with a Windows 8.1 computer. Can someone help please?

Itunes will not recognize either my iphone 5 or my ipad since I have downloaded the new Itunes upgrade on my Windows 8.1 system. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and none of that works. Can someone help with this?

I've uninstalled and reinstalled and none of that works.
Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
