HELP PLEASE! Computer reads iTouch as a camera. Will not open in iTunes.

Could an expert please answer this question. I've browsed the discussion board looking for answers but everyone just seems to have a different problem.
I run Windows XP Pro. Everything was working fine until the new version of iTunes came out. Ok, so recently I updated my iTunes to version 7.7.1. When this happened, my iTunes no longer read my iTouch. Long story short, a couple of sytem restores later and an upgrade to the 2.0 applications program, and my iTouch was stuck in recovery mode. A couple hours ago I went to the Apple store and a genius fixed my iTouch back to factory mode. I reinstalled iTunes 7.7.1 and plugged my iTouch in, and my PC read the iTouch as a camera and had a list of 5 or so programs to open it with (not iTunes). So I opened iTunes manually and my iTouch is not being read. I checked to make sure I had the latest version and it says "This version of iTunes (7.7.1) is the current version". Then I try and do a diagnostics test and I get this message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience". When I view more information, under "The following files will be included in this error report:" it says C:\DOCUME~1\ALANIB~1.ALA\LOCALS~1\Temp\636b_appcompat.txt So yeah.
I also don't have any pictures on my iTouch.
What in the world is going on. It was working fine until I updated. This is really starting to **** me off. Thanks!

SWEET I FIXED IT.
So I went to control panel, add/remove programs, and removed the "Apple Mobile Device Support". Then I restarted my computer. I then went to add/remove programs again and this time removed iTunes. I restarted my computer again. Next I installed the latest version of iTunes and restarted my computer immediatly after. Everything worked fine after that.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Nope, it either needs to be plugged in or turned on with the power button.
    A replacement iPhone 4 is $149, but at least the whole phone is replaced.

    See:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    You need the 8.2 version of the ACR module, and PS10 is too old to be updated.
    So, you can choose between 3 solutions:
    - update PSE to PSE12
    - use the Canon software to convert the raw files to the tiff format which PSE10 can handle
    - download and install the free Adobe DNGconverter which is able to convert a whole folder of CR2 raw files to the Adobe DNG raw format which PSE10 can handle.
    The last two solutions are free.

    I am trying to open some *.avi files in quicktime, they are from my security camera at home.  It will not open them, would anyone be able to help me?  It says I need a plugin but it does not tell me which one.
    Basically your player is telling you that you need to install the codecs that will play the compressed data within the AVI file.
    AVI is a legacy file container in which the tracks of data are interleaved to maintain synchronization. This data can be encoded using many different audio and video codecs. Your problem is to determine which codecs you need for the player you are trying to use and install them if they are available. Failing that, your will either have to play the files in a different player which has the codec support your require built into the app or convert the content to a compression format that is natively compatible with the player you wish to use.
    Since you have not stated what platform, operating system, and particular player you are targeting for playback, it is difficult to provide precise instructions for fixing your specific problem at this point. Suggest you try alternative players compatible with your system and platform to see if they will play the files, use a dedicated media information utility to determine the codecs needed for playback, or post a sample file for analysis.

  • HELP......  spreadsheet will not open in Numbers

    I have used numbers for years and today when I try to open a spreadsheet that was created a couple of years ago, it will not open.  It just opened two days ago....  Does anyone know what is going on with Numbers?  I am operating maverick and my numbers version is 3.01.   Please help!

    That's the usual cause. The document could have been corrupted by who-knows-what. Do you have a Time Machine backup? You might find a good copy of the document there, maybe with the last update missing.
    Also, try Open With: Preview in Finder. If it opens in Preview you can see the contents and have some hope of recovery, even if only manually.

  • Help PLEASE! My song I just bought will NOT play

    I just bought a song off iTunes and it will not play. It finished downloading, and my computer is authorized to play music from the account I bought the song on. Does anyone know how to fix this problem I'm having?

    Are you running the latest version of iTunes (7.1.1)? If not, upgrade and see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't, or you already have 7.1.1 and other tracks purchased from the same iTunes Store account play correctly, then you probably have a corrupt or incomplete download. Contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of their web page and explain the problem to them.
    Good luck.

    Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.
