Help....can't access iTunes and iPod doesn't work when connected

Ant ideas? I get an error message when I try to open iTunes,,,,iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close....I have reinstalledseveral times...and when I try to sync my iPod using other programs( rhapsody(, it makes a wierd whirring sound and locks up the program.....

Well no, sending an error report to Microsoft about an Apple program won't get you anywhere.
Why not tell us the error message?
edit - Was that it, just that dumb generic message? How about if you try a shift-start of itunes? Press _and hold_ the shift key while starting itunes, and choose to create a new itunes library - does that get you any further?

Can't open iTunes and Audio doesn't work

Hi! I need help!
Everytime I try to open iTunes I get an Error message that says:
"The iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occured (-200)."
And once I started getting this error my audio stopped working. All my macbook pro does audio wise is play sound effects of what I do (move things to trash, delete things...etc.).
Anyone know what's going on here and what I can do to fix this problem?

Your iTunes issue should be posted to the iTunes forum area.
For your sound problems - Repair permissions & restart.

Open up GarageBand if installed then, open a program (optional). Quit out of the GarageBand app.

Music shows up on my playlist on my iPhone but I can't play it and it doesn't work when I sync it

I tried to recently add music to my iPhone playlists and the songs appear on my iPhone but are grey and can't be played.

If the song never successfully downloaded, look under the Store menu in iTunes for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the tracks there to be downloaded.
If not, contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department from their Support page (select the category and subcategory closest to the issue you're reporting and you'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form, or an "Email Us" button) and explain the problem to them.

I can not access Itunes Store from my computer. When I run the dianostic I get a red light that says "Secure Link to the Itunes Store Failed".

I can not access Itunes Store from my computer.
When I run the diagnostic tool for network connectivity, my network connects but I get a Red light that says "SECURE LINK TO THE ITUNES STORE FAILED".
Can anyone help me on this problem?

ITunes won't connect all I get is the "accessing iTunes store......". With the bar scrolling but no connection.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

I have Adobe Acrobat 9.5.4 installed on my computer and it doesn't work when PDFing

I have Adobe Acrobat 9.5.4 installed on my computer and it doesn't work when PDFing my document using Microft Word 2010. I have tried using the tab add-in, but it doesn't respond either. The only way to convert my document is to save it as a .pdf from the save as drop down box. I need to be able to have the full functionability of creating a PDF document with the tabs and links working.
Please help!

From OFFICE 2010 you either have to have AA X or just print to the Adobe PDF printer. You give no information on your operating system or specifically what you mean by PDFing -- there are multiple ways to create a PDF from a WORD document and you have given no information. However, in this case your only choice is to print to the Adobe PDF printer. Otherwise, you need to upgrade Acrobat.

HT4437 Can't get iTunes and monitor mirroring to work at the same time.

When I turn on my airplay on itunes it turns off the airplay from my monitor. I don't know how I've done it before but I sometimes can't play itunes and have it mirror my screen at the same time so I can use the visualizer. Whenever I turn one on, the other shuts off. I've done it before. Is there a specific sequence you need to run itunes and have the mirroring work too?

Spinning color wheel when accessing iTunes and iPods Need Help

I hope somebody can offer some help. I have an iMac G5 running Leopard 10.5.6 and the latest version of iTunes and have several iPods ranging from an old iPod photo up to my newest 160 GB classic purchased about a week ago. My iTunes library is stored on a LaCie 1 TB external USB2 drive.
On to my issue. When I access iTunes I often get the spinning wheel but especially often when I try to hook up one of my iPods to sync anything. For instance I will hook up an iPod and then click on the books tab of the iPod in iTunes to select what to sync. I will get the spinning wheel for several minutes before it finally opens the tab. When it finally does, it let's me select what I want but then if I they hit apply button, I get the wheel again for several minutes before it finally syncs. It is driving me nuts. At first I thought it was my new iPod but it does it on my others as well.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Can't access iTunes and Screen Sharing sharing services on my mac Mini

Since several weeks now I face a networking issue of the stranger kind.
Currently I've got my Mac mini acting as the central server for music, photos and files in my home. Central Network Mgmt device is a Wireless Lan router.
In the past I was accessing the Mac Mini from my MacBook via Screen Sharing this doesn't work anymore. When requesting the service the connection effort just runs idle. In iTunes on my MacBook I can see the Libary of my Mac Mini iTunes but clicking on it brings the rotateing ball and after a certain while the message that the iTunes Libary is not responding and that I should check my Firewall settings. Which I did on both computers and they are wide open. 'Ipfw show' in Terminal brings back the message 'Open for any to any communication' also on both computers.
Makeing use of the File sharing service from the MacBook to the MacMini works but it takes a extreme long while until the shared folder appears on the MacBook.
Trying to access from the Mac Mini my MacBook for all these services is no problem.
One more thing is that my Mac Mini cannot access the Wireless Lan router anymore thru the Web Browser or thru a Ping. Here I get the message 'Ping Send to: permission denied'. I changed the Router still the same message. Internet traffic is only possible after I manually applied a DNS Server with its IP number.
Anyone out there who could help? I'm close to completely reinstall my Mac Mini but would naturally love to avoid this.

wireduck,
Highlight the music folder and on the keyboard type (Command) + i: on the window that opens scroll down if need and click on the lock on the bottom right. Type in an Admin User name and password. Then under the (Sharing & Permissions:) make sure the users you want to open the folder are listed and that there (Privilege) is set to @ least Read. If not hit the ( + ) sign and add them. After you have that all set up click on the little gear next to the ( - )s sign and (Apply to a enclosed items). that way each user can read the files. After that the little ( - ) sign should be gone on the folders.
Hope that helps.

Archive and Reinstall... but can't access... password doesn't work?????

I have a Mac Mini with 10.4.11 and had some difficulties, so I decided t archive and reinstall OS X from the disc (10.3). After an hour of installation, I restarted and it got to the password page, which I never regularly used. There were 2 sign ins and I couldn't get any passwords that I always use to sign in and there is nothing to click to say that I don't remember my password. All the screen does is shake it's head and then give me another try. Eventually, it does give me a hint about my usual password, but that doesn't work. What can I do to bypass and get into the system?

"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

ITunes and iPod aren't working correctly

So, I go and buy my new laptop today, with hopes of loading all my music that I backed up onto 4 DVDs. I go to load my music from the DVDs and they don't work. Whatever. So I go and follow Apple's instructions on how to backup my library on my iPod, then transfer it over to my computer. I followed their instructions, but to no avail. Nothing worked. I can run iTunes by itself flawlessly, but when I plug in my iPod, it automatically freezes my iTunes. I can't do anything with it now. I need some advice, because Google keeps leading me to dead ends. My iPod works fine, but not with the laptop/iTunes. I'm using the latest version of iTunes for 64 bit Vista.

hi y'all!
hmmm. sounds like it's worth checking up on this possibility:

How can I stop iTunes from dropping my iPhone 5 when connected with USB cable? It sees it and start a backup and then it drops and tells me cannot find phone.

My HP notebook 64 bit Windows 8 after the last iTunes update will detect my iPhone 5, sync and when finished with thy sync I start a backup to my computer. It runs fine for a bit and then gives me message I have changed settings on my iPhone 5 and asked me if I want to update. I OK the question and runs a bit more and then drops the connection telling me cant find my iPhone 5. I can restart iTunes and start over and does the same thing.
ITunes update 11.1.1.62 had difficulties with the updates on 64 bit Windows 7 and 8.1 causing an error on boot other trouble. I found solution on research that insturcted to Remove iTunes, Bonjour, Apple Support and Apple Update and reload iTunes old version. I simply reloaded the new version becasue did not have the old version of iTunes. I have been working fine with the old version. I know problem is a simple setting somewhere but it is NOT SIMPLE to me since I dont know where the find the simple setting.
Will someone tell what to do. I appreciate all you smart guys.

My apologies...the version is 11.1.4.62 not as stated aboive in my problem description. I'm trying again and it just finished syncing fine and my iPhone 5 is still connected to iTuns physcially with USB lightening cable and is displaying the iPhone icon top right. I clicked on it and iTunes is now "hung' or locked up. Shows to be an active running application but can't get back to it so willl have to kill with task manager. There is some kind of problem going on with the latest version of iTunes and Wndows 7 and 8.1 or something. My iPhone 5 now has a new feature that it is now asking me if I "Trust" this computer. iTunes just came "unhung" after several minutes while I was typing this. Now I am going to start the backup to this computer HP Winsows 8.1 and iTune 11.1.4.62 and see what happens. Says it is Backing up Jerrys iPhone but the Barber Pole progress bar is not turning an iTunes is hung again and I cant get back to it from this page I am typing on. Maybe it will eventually release as it did a moment ago.

Unable to use debug mode for x64 application and debug doesn't work when target cpu set to x86

I am attempting to familiarize myself with Visual Basic programming in Visual Studio 2008, using the Visual Basic Guided Tour in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Documentation, and have run into a bit of a road-block. When following the lesson "It
Doesn't Work! Finding and Eliminating Run-Time Errors", the IDE does not allow me to edit the code when the debugger hits the intentionally programmed runtime error (divisor set to 0). It gives me an error that "Changes to 64 bit applications
are not allowed". I found some forum postings advising to set the project's Target CPU from "Any CPU" to "x86". However, when I do that, and re-execute the debug process, the debug fails to stop on the overflow/divide by
zero error.
How can I debug my programs when Any CPU/x64 target doesn't allow me to edit the code, and x86 target doesn't appear to recognize obvious runtime errors.

Hi Tim,
>>the IDE does not allow me to edit the code when the debugger hits the intentionally programmed runtime error (divisor set to 0). It gives me an error that "Changes to 64 bit applications are not allowed".
I'm afraid that the VS2008 has a limitation for this feature, I mean that Edit and Continue isn't supported on 64-bit.
Reference:

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/habibh/archive/2009/10/12/how-to-edit-code-when-debugging-a-64-bit-application.aspx
But this feature has a improvement in VS2013 now:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/06/26/debugging-support-for-64-bit-edit-and-continue-in-visual-studio-2013.aspx
So if possible, you could test it in the latest VS2013 version.

Can't access itunes, and won't let me install or uninstall

When i click on itunes it says files are not supported, and that i need to uninstall and reinstall. I then try to do so and it says files are unable to be found. and when i just download itunes without uninstalling it says other files must be uninstalled first. i dont want to lose access to my music. what can i do?

i would look for Iphoto in your applications folder and put it in the trash, (be sure not to through away your Iphoto libary in your pictures folder)
restart your computer
and attempt to redownload it from the app store.
