HELP!! iTunes HELP!!

Ok....here is the problem i just got my ipod back from ipod service and i put all of my songs back onto my ipod. Later that night i was listening to my ipod and then i put it on my shelf. Later that night at like 10 i went to listen to my ipod and it said all of the songs were gone and in the settings>about section it said i have seven gigs of info taken up. So the next day i restored my ipod and now itunes will not detect it! When i look at my ipod in my computer there is no music folder just notes and the other things. What is wrong with my ipod?

Read this article and see if it helps:

Why is there no "iTunes Help" in the menus of iTunes?

I must be the most incompetent user of an iPod in history. I do nothing but fight with iTunes. I've come to the conclusion that I hold some assumption which conflicts with the beliefs of Apple and I want to know what the right way to use the iPod is on a wide range of questions.
We'll begin with an easy question...
Why is there no "Help >> iTunes Help" in the pull-down menus of iTunes on MS Windows? There's help for how to use the iPod. Very detailed help, with pictures and stuff. But there is no help for using iTunes. I want to use iTunes to play songs on my computer even when I don't have my iPod with me. But I need to be able to get help about how to do things, and I shouldn't have to come to an online forum and search forever to find stuff. Do the authors of iTunes software assume this is completely intuitive? Is it too much work to create that help? Is the online forum just considered better than any help could be? If so, why provide help for using the iPod?
This is a design decision that I find baffling.

The music store is part of iTunes. That is why they are together on the menu. As many topics would offer the same advice for music in your library or music in the store, grouping them together makes sense in terms of reducing redundant entries.
Sorry you found it confusing. I, too, once found some things Apple a bit different. That was about two years ago when I bought my iBook. StarDeb is another recent switcher. And I feel confident in saying this: either of us would be more than happy to help you with anything that gets "lost in translation". We both know there is a learning curve when you move from the XP world to a more fruit-based view of things

Problem seeing songs in Itunes HELP!!!

Hello all this explanation is really long but I think it is the only way you will understand what happened.
I have a 30g video ipod. I did not realize that ipod had little battery and connected it to my labtop. My labtop has an adaptor card so I have capability in having High USB2. But when i connect ipod to this device it my IPOD will not charge because the card does not have enough pawer to charge IPOD. so when I connected the ipod with little battery itunes read okay and loaded all my music fine but when i went to transfer a song to my ipod from my itunes labrary it just turned off my ipod. So me thinking that it is out of battery I put it to charge on the wall adapter. Once I saw that it charged I reconnected it to my computer and my computer recognized the IPOD but as a new ipod. of course it asked me if I wanted to link it with the computer and I said no. Then when I click on my ipod in itunes i don't see my music anymore. funny thing is when I click on my ipod in itunes I don't see the music but the bottom says that I have used 4.3 g bytes. My pictures are there and I can see them. and if I go to start, my computer and go to the ipod icon all the music is their... Why now I can not see it the music in my itunes??? What do I do.

Yes, easy!

Error message "iTunes Helper Resources not available" and saving to wrong Drive

I am trying to upgrade iTunes to 10.7 on my PC but I keep getting the error message "iTunes Helper Resources not available". Diagnostics take me a support page which talks about not being able to see the device in iTunes - but I can see the device without problems.
I thought I would try reinstalling iTunes from the webpage and it downloaded to my PC fine but when I went to setup, it showed me it is saving to a DVD drive - not my Hard drive. It also won't let me change the location for the file. I have no idea how that's happened as I obviously don't use the DVD drive as a USB (although the PC see's it as one) and I've never chosen it as the location for iTunes in the 7-8 years that I've been using it.
I then thought I'd try uninstalling it and reinstalling it (to the correct drive) but again, it comes up that the DVD drive is invalid and won't uninstall iTunes.
So I'm stuck and haven't been able to find anything helpful on the support pages or in iTunes Help.
Please someone help ...
Thanks.

Try the following user tip. (Probably, the section on clearing the installation database might be best given that you've currently got a drive on the problematic letter at the moment.)

I want to transfer a movie I have downloaded from itunes to my new IPAD. I have been on the itunes help menu, it tells me to look under 'devices' tab for IPAD. BUT there is no 'devices' tab and it does not list my new IPAD. Help!

I want to transfer a movie I have bought in itunes to my new IPAD. I have been trying to work how to do this for 3 days now. I have accessed all the itunes help and forums and wiki online. They all tell me to go to the DEVICES tab on itunes and select IPAD then sync. YUP seem simple, BUT there is not DEVICES tab listed on my itunes and it does not list IPAD. Years ago I set up my IPOD no problem and that is listed, but not the new IPAD. Can anyone help? I would love to be able to actually watch films on my IPAD!! thanks

If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

I can access and use the store just fine - but when I try to open iTunes HELP, I just get a blank/white Help box. Any thoughts or ideas? Dee

Not sure if I have to repeat question, but I cannot access the iTunes HELP from the Store on my PC (Dell laptop/Windows 7) - opens the box, but it remains blank/white, never fills in with HELP information. Any thoughts? dee

I would check with HP. Your scanner may need a firmware update and updated HP software. Start here:

I am trying to install itunes after downloading Windows 8.1. I get an Windows Error 2 message-- "Apple Application Support is required to run itunes helper." Any suggestions?

I am trying to install itunes (64 bit) after downloading Windows 8.1 on my HP Laptop. I keep getting an error message Windows Error 2--"Apple App;ication Support is required to run itunes helper" Does anyone have any simple suggestions for a user with limited knowledge of Computers?

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Cant finish installing iTunes 10.6 to windows 7, keep getting error message 7, unable to download iTunes help. Ideas?

I started with the "cannot locate network file .msi" msg. I bought perfect uninstall to remove all traces of apple software from computer, it was able to remove the so called defective file. For 3 hours I tried to reload 10.6 and got a new error code 7, unable to install iTunes help, and I still can't get it or the old versions of iTunes back on my computer. I have since removed the software again and defragmented the drive with no success. Seems like a lot of people are having similar issues. I am very frustrated. I was so happy with apple products till now, so disappointed they would release such faulty software! Any ideas?

Repair your Apple Application Support.
Restart Computer, go to Control Panel/Program and Features/highlight AAS and click REPAIR button.

Itunes help is not working in 10.5.

Recently I updated to itunes 10.5.
When I click on "itunes help" it opens a window that reads:
Not Found
The requested URL /itunes/win/10.5/ was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.3 (Oracle) Server at help.apple.com Port 80
Anybody else having this problem? Would like to fix it without reinstalling the whole application.

This may be considered a valuable clue and in my mind points to being a bug in the mail tool itself. I noticed that in my case there was special formatting in the email I was composing. I had started lines with bold texted characters then tabbed over to write text in default format. Above the format changes I was getting the word wrap I would expect. Below the special characters I was getting the anomalous behavior of words being split by wrap.

Why do I see: iTunes Help is unavailable because your computer isn't connected to the Internet. IE9 works fine but iTunes does not connect to the store.

I have tried 4 days to get iTunes 10.4 working on my Win7 x64 machine. I purchased a new iPhone4 and after syncing it the first time, I can't connect to the iTunes store.
When I try to run iTunes Help, I get this message "iTunes Help is unavailable because your computer isn’t connected to the Internet." However IE9 and Google Chrome run as always...... no connection problems.
I have already uninstalled IE9 x64 and iTunes 10.4 x64 and reinstalled but still the same. I followed all the instructions I could find about firewalls, ports, SSL etc.

How do I consolidate a song into an album, each purchased separately, in my iTunes library? iMac OSX 10.8.5. iTunes Help has been no help.

How do I consolidate a song into an album, each purchased separately, in my iTunes library? iMac OS X 10.8.5. iTunes Help has been no help.

However, my troubleshooting issue is that I also want the songs in my concert playlists to go in order of how they were performed at the concerts.
Give them a track number.
Each time I number them within the playlists the song's number also changes within the Library Music list.
And? I'm not seeing the problem.
However, I can not figure out how to make true copy. I've already tried dragging the song to my desktop, then dragging the new copy back into iTunes. I've even tried renaming the duplicate copy and dragging it into iTunes. Why won't my iTunes make an individual duplicate copy of a song?
How do you have iTunes manage your music? If you drag a song to the desktop it may just be moving the file to the desktop.
Command+R to reveal the file in Finder. Command+D to duplicate the file in Finder. Drag the duplicate to iTunes to add the second copy. Not that I totally understand where the issues lie and feel this is likely not the best remedy...

My ipod has broken. a friend has given me her ipod. but how do i get to use as mine. i can erase her songs and i have mine all on my pc in itunes. help me please friends

It appears that something happened to yur computer/iTunes files. It happens sometimes. To recovery:
- Import the old music into the current iTunes library
- Make sure all the apps are also in the library
- If in the USA and therplaces where iCloud has benn released you can redownload most iTunes puchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- You can always redownload apps at no additional cost as long as you are singned into the same iTunes account the originally purchased them.
- After all the suff in in the iTunes library, make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes.
- Restore the iPod from backup and restore as necessary.

Can anyone help me? The iTunes update corrupted my program. I uninstalled, and then reinstalled iTunes; only to find an error message about iTunes Helper. After several fruitless, repeat attempts, I am at a loss. Please help-

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

HELP!! iTunes HELP!!
