Help me please! cant get iTunes after a system restore!

hello...
i had to restore my PC to a later date, hoping that it would help a couple of other problems ive been having, the main one being ALOT of "Timed Out" errors while online...
now when i try to open iTunes, i get the error "iTunes Library.itl"...
anyone know how to fix this?
thanks in advance...

the actual error im getting...
---The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.---
i am following the link you supplied... at step #6, it tells me to take the XML file and drag it to the trash, then to open iTunes... ive followed these steps, but still cant open iTunes, b/c im still getting this error!!!
again, thanks!!!

HELP! i cant get itunes because...

it says it doesnt have a digital signature. how do i disable the setting that makes it have one or how do i get itunes another way?

So, it's not a problem that's iTunes specific? You can't download anything in Internet Explorer?
Check your firewall settings to make sure IE is unblocked. Check the IE Tools menu -> Internet Options Advanced tab. If you've changed these, there's a handy "reset to default settings" button there. If it's Vista, make sure you don't have parental controls turned on and blocking web access.

Lost purchased iTunes after computer system restore

How can I retreive purchsed iTunes that I lost after I had my computer system restored? I re-loaded the iPod + iTunes disc and non of my songs seem available to me.

That is going to depend on what you mean by "restore". If you formatted your hard drive and did not have a backup then the music files are gone and you will have to re purchase them all. Same thing if you
If you still have your music files all you need to do is add them to iTunes. Go to File > Add Folder to Lib... and point to where the files are.
If you believe you still have the music files but do not know where they are try doing a search for *.m4p, or *.mpb, or *.mp3. If the files are still on your hard drive then that should find them.

Reinstalling Itunes after laptop system restore

My laptop was corrupted, it wouldn't boot up and I have had to do a system restore ... meaning I have lost my Itunes library. On top of which I hadnt backed up my library! All I have is my nano generation 3 with 1000+ tracks on it. I've heard if I reinstall Itunes and then syncronise my nano I will lose everything on my nano! Is this true? And if so, is there any way I can get the tracks stored in my library onto my laptop? I really don't fancy downloading 1000+ tracks again!

I found the answer in the response to the earlier post "Coping music from ipod back to PC" (posted: Aug 1, 2007 10:25 AM) and ended up using Tunejack ... it was very simple, everything is restored to my Itunes library including playlists, number of times played etc, although I did have to redownload album cover designs, but that was no real hardship. I then synchronised my Ipod with Itunes as normal so that everything was aligned. As I side issue, because I had redownloaded Itunes onto my computer, found I had to reauthorise my computer. Otherwise when I did my sync, it wouldn't transfer tracks back to the Ipod that I had previously downloaded from the Itunes store, because it thought that they had been purchased via another computer!

Apple Please sort out the V 11.1.4 problems as I cant get iTunes to work now. You need to have a new version asap

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I've changed my "My Music" folder and now I cant get iTunes to run!

Ok, Maybe some has a fix for this - I am running Vista and I have moved my "My Music" folder from its original location to its own dedicated hard drive (F:). Now when I install and try to run any iTunes version I get the error "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The Default location for this folder is inside the "Music" Folder." I have even gone so far as to create a Music folder under Users\"current user"\ . Does anyone have a workaround or fix to this - I will have to take this computer back if I cant get Itunes to work on it.

IF you are able to get iTunes open you need to go into preferences and change the location of your music directory (Under Advanced) If you are unable to access iTunes you need to recreate the iTunes folder under my music... open up the directory on your F drive and copy the XML document. Place it into the iTunes directory under my music. Open that file up in an HTML editor and change the location of your files in the line that looks like this...
file://localhost/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/*You're Name*/My%20Documents/My%20Music/iTunes/iTunes%20Music/
Change the C: to the F: and update the rest of the path to point to the right directory. I hope this helps!
