Have tried everything in forum and cant burn cds or import them. itunes says to reinstall but doesn't fix problem.

Hi. I have had a message each time I open Itunes. It has varied but includes the following:
Itunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn cds you must reinstall itunes.
Itunes helper not installed correctly - Error 7
Itunes is not the primary __ for CDs/DVDs. Please reinstall itunes
THE REGISTRY SETTINGS USED BY THE ITUNES DRIVERS FOR IMPORTING AND BURNING CD'S AND DVD'S ARE MISSING. THIS CAN HAPPEN AS A RESULT OF INSTALLING OTHER CD BURNING SOFTWARE. RE-INSTALL ITUNES -
I went through tons of steps that I found online including all of the steps to Fix Gear Drivers. I did the registery steps, I updated my CD & DVD drivers, I uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes, Bonjour, Quicktime and all else in the long list.
Nothing has helped. What else can be done? The message has changed as I have done all of the self-fix steps but it won't let me burn disks still and still get errors.
Help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,
FYI, the step that has me add back Upperfilters causes Itunes to no longer recognize the drives so I can't do this step. I have tried everything listed.

I cross posted also but this forum looks better.
I've had the same problem. I notice that my Superdrive justs looks at the disc for a bit and then spits it out.
When I boot from my clone of my 10.4.10 setup, I can mount and burn a CD-R in iTunes, although the names of the tracks and disc are screwed up (while the actual data is correct).
But in 10.4.11 and Leopard (also testing that on an external drive) the blank disc won't mount at all.

Cant find downloaded rental film. ITunes says its downloaded but nothing in download screen

If you've downloaded it on the iPad then it should be in the Videos app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :
If you can't find it in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

My IPod is not showing up in my Itunes, I tried my phone as well and it is not coming up either. I have tried everything including uninstalling and reinstalling. It worked the other day but it is not working now. Please somebody help me!!! What to do?

Hello,
Can someone please help me!? I am trying to put music on my IPod and it was working the other day. I can not get itunes to recognize my Ipod. I have tried to unistall and reinstall Itunes. I have tried all the steps on the site and can't get it to come up. I tried my IPhone which was also showing up just the other day and it also is not showing in Itunes! Please help me. I need to be able to put music on my IPod for my work.

I have sorted it myself!!
Ipod is now in the top right corner, last time I clicked on it, it ejected it but by clicking on the actual ipod icon then it brings up your ipod. I restored it to factory settings and synced all my music and it now works again. Hope this can help anyone who ends up with the same problem.

AI CS5 crashes when saving - I have tried everything including uninstalling and re-installing

At 80% of my attempts to save adobe illustrator cs5 crashes. Very rarely does the .ai file actually save, but it has on a few occasions.

GP,
Did you use the full three step way?
Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall?
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
Working now and again, it may be caused by some strange interference.
The full general list of things to try includes interference from specific applications in Item 7) in 5).
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

HT1150 I have an iBook G4. My epson stylus printer is not fixable so I went to Best Buy and bought an XP400. It is all set up but I can't get the printer to communicate with the computer. Have tried everything I know and it won't work. Any ideas?

I have an iBook G4. My epson stylus printer is not fixable so I went to Best buy and bought an XP 400 (Epson). When I went to set it up it wouldn't talk to my computer. So it looks great but won't print After 2 days and many phone calls I am disgruntled to say the least. Any suggestions?

I would imagine the drivers supplied with the printer will not be compatible with your existing operating system.
Download the older drivers for your OS here, and then try the install again.

While my iPod touch was connected to a speaker dock, I found it very hot. Not it will not turn on. I have tried the reset options and they do not work. Neither iTunes nor any of my computers recognizes it when I plug in the usb. Is there a way to fix?

Now it will not turn on. I have tried all the reset instructions with no luck. Neither iTunes nor any of my computers will recognize it when I plug it in. Is there any chance to get it working or am I out of luck? Please help if you can since I cannot afford to purchase a new one at this time. Thanks.

Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

I have an apple ipad 1 and suddenly I can't connect to itunes says cannot allocate memorary what do I do, I have an apple ipad 1 and suddenly I can't connect to itunes says cannot allocate memorary what do I do

I have an ipad 1 and all was fine until the other day and now I can't connect to itunes a box pops up saying cannot allocate memory, what does this mean and howdo I fix it

Try quitting all apps and restart your iPad. Maybe you are running out of memory on the iPad. It's worth a try.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or try a reset,
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

TS4268 I updated my iphone 5 to the new ios 7, well now my imessages and facetime wont work!! I have tried everything! So went to go restore my iphone throw itunes and well the backup was taking hours, so i went to cancle it now it wont do anything!!

Need help!! How do i cancle my backup? It wont let me do anything! Trying to get my imessages and facetime to work

Hi Natasha,
Below is a copy of my post in another thread on this topic. I'm not sure which country you are from, but hope it's helpful.
Possible fix for Australian users on Telstra and using Tango
I'm using the iPhone 5S with iOS 7.0.1 on a contract with Telstra in Australia and have been experiencing the problem with iMessage and FaceTime not activating. My iPhone 4S on iOS 6 worked perfectly on the same network however.
I seem to have now fixed this issue by removing the Tango app (it is similar to Skype). Reading through this thread and seeing the refernces to TuGo triggered my solution, although I believe the 2 apps are entirely unrelated (just have a similar sounding name).
This fix may have been co-incidental, given that I had to wait quite a while for a sync with iTunes to complete. After syncing, I didn't check the settings for Messages and FaceTime to see if they had been activated. I just went straight to the Tango app on the iPhone and deleted it - hey presto, instantly both Messages and FaceTime were activated.
Hope this helps others in Australia who may have Tango installed, and are on the Telstra network.

I have tried everything; no toolbar and only a black square. Hours and Hours I have tried all your suggestions.

Last week for the first time in ever having zero problems with Firefox for years all I had was a black screen. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times, searched for hours for solutions, I feel like I've tried them all to no avail. Almost every troubleshooting tip says to start with the toolbar, I have no toolbar in Firefox any longer, only a clear window where I can see my desktop behind it and a black square. Interestingly enough, from memory of course, it's said something about incompatible XP but I've got Windows 7, never had XP on this computer.
Anyway, I'm using Explorer now and I don't really like it. I've really enjoyed Firefox for years and I miss it intensely. Never had a problem on my other computer, either, but it has XP and I don't use it online any longer.
Please please please don't ask me to try any troubleshooting that involves starting at the toolbar, again, I have no toolbar, literally a black screen and only the minimize and close buttons. That is all. Thank you.
I've currently uninstalled Firefox for about the tenth time so as far as I can tell I would have to reinstall again. Thank you for any help that would help me get my Firefox back.

hello KathyAZ, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

How can I cancel RedKareoke. I have tried everything I know and they still keep taking money out of my account. What can I do.

How can I cancel RedKareoke? They give you explicit instructions but they do not work. They just still keep taking it out of my account. I have e-mailed them and they said they would delete it but the $7.41 just keeps coming out every month. And I cannot talk to anyone in person. The bank won't put a stop payment on an ACH item like this.

There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
