Hot pink screen for iTunes? why

I just downloaded iTunes v.8.0.1. iTunes screen cocmes up hot pink, flashes to correct white screen, then flashes back and stays hot pink. Side bars are dark gray and illegible. Any clues how to correct and get back the normal white screen?

Change your Display settings in Windows...Right click on your Desktop, Properties, us 32 bit, Then it will be like magic and go far far away!

    my ipad3 is stuck at the screen for plugging into my computer for itunes  - I treid turning it off/on but it keeps coming back - I am travelling and cant cable syn - ipad is not useable and i need to to do work - help

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • When I boot up it hangs on the login screen for awhile, why?

    I have a mid 2011 Macbook Air 13".  It came with Lion but I recently updated to Mountain Lion.  When I wake the laptop from sleep everything is fine.  If it's been awhile since it slept (a couple of hours), the login screen hangs.  What happens is that it boots like normal and looks like everything is correct, but it won't let me type in my password.  After 10 seconds or so I can see a cursor come up but it won't let me type (but anything I do type at this point will later fill in the field after another 2-3 seconds or so).  One other thing that's weird is that when the screen first comes up it shows the battery percentage from when I put it back on the charger, then after everything catches up, it changes to show 100%.
    I hope I explained the problem well enough.  Basicly a "wake from sleep" is fine if it hasn't been long since the laptop slept, but if it's been awhile it takes about 15-20 seconds to boot up.
    Ideas?

    Here are some suggestions based on my recent issue with unable to get Mavericks up after upgrade - The Apple geniuses just simply couldnt figure this one out...despite it being in their shop for 3 days (They probably did not look at it...and asked if they can just wipe out everything and install fresh...i had said NO):
    Restart computer and hold Cmd+V when you hear chime. This will start the computer in Verbose mode.
    See the messages and see where the system boot fails. In my case, it was some backtrace IOStorageFamily issue with com.paragon-software.
    Google may be able to solve your Apple issues - just type the error message in and see if you get any useful suggestions. in most cases - this would be some faulty 3rd party drivers.....
    In my case, it was something stupid i had probably installed....I had to boot to safe mode (Hold Shift at boot chime) - open Terminal, delete the folder com.paragon-software.kext from System/Library/Extensions....that fixed the problem. Mavericks is working great now....
    Let me know if your debugging thing works...

  • I am using external drive for iTunes why does it put art on internal

    I have my itunes library on an external drive which works quite well for the most part. However it keeps recreating an itunes folder and subfolders on my internal drive mainly artwork and .itdb, .itl and  .xml files in user/music/itunes. this is quite annoying because I am trying to keep as much data as possible off my internal drive for space considerations. I have tried deleting these files but itunes  just recreates them. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Solved the problem. When I initially moved itunes to the external drive I copied the entire iTunes folder and seleted the appropriate library drive in preferences
    This is not the correct way to do it.
    This still uses the iTunes folder on the internal for the iTunes library file, artwork etc.
    Holding Option and Choose library... tells iTunes to use everything in the iTunes folder you select.
    Holding Option and Choose library... you do not need to change the Tunes prefs > Advance - iTunes media folder location.

  • Have windows 7, newest update for itunes, why does it take more than one attempt to listen to a preview of song, sometimes it neve lets me listen to the whole preview, any suggestions? please help.

    any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    Okay.
    Warning in advance: experimental advice.
    The way that some of these have been responding to cache resets, but some haven't, has been making me wonder if we've got some form of trouble in the cache.db file. If the trouble is minor, a cache reset can fix it. But if the trouble is of the right/wrong sort, it might also prevent a cache reset from going through properly. (Similar things can happen with Safari for Windows preferences/settings/database files.) If that's what is afoot with you, then we might be able to get past this by manually removing the cache.db.
    Quit iTunes before proceeding.
    To get at the cache.db, first we'd need to change some view settings on the PC.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now, in Computer, open your C:\, drive.
    Open the "Users" folder.
    Open the folder with the name of your Windows user account.
    Open the "AppData" folder.
    Open the "Local" folder.
    Open the "Apple Computer" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Drag the Cache.db file out of the folder and onto your desktop.
    Launch iTunes and visit the Store again. Can you get full previews now?

    Hello bigboza,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.

  • Ad for iTunes 10 is filling up my screen

    Here is my situation. I am using an eMac with OS X 10.3.9 and iTunes 7.4.2. I buy CDs and import them into iTunes; I do not buy music from the iTunes store. I still get offers to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes and those offers don't annoy me. But today, something different happened.
    I do not have iTunes Store selected at the left of the screen, I have Library > Music selected. Besides my usual Genre, Artist, Album and track sections, I now have a large area of the window occupied by an advertisement trying to get me to download iTunes 10. This appeared today.
    I can't install iTunes 10 on this computer, since it requires 10.4.11 or later, and I am running 10.3.9. Yes, for a price I could upgrade my OS X, but I'd rather just stick with what I have for now - or had anyway. Apple suddenly changed the way iTunes 7.4.1 operates on my computer.
    I think it's odd that Apple could easily tell what version of OS X that this Mac is running, and determine that what they are trying to get me to download is not compatible. Why are they still pushing me to download software that is not compatible with my system configuration?
    No matter where I click and/or drag, I can't minimize this advertisement for iTunes 10. It is annoying because it eats up a large area of the screen, leaving almost no room for my artist and track lists. Is there a secret trick to eliminate this ad?
    Thank you for your help.

    I'm sorry, but I also have that problem!/4.5.5/images/emoticons/sad.gif|_mce_src=/4.5.5/images/emoticons/sad.gi f|___jive_emoticon_name=sad|jivemacro=emoticon|class=jive_macro jive_emote|src=/4.5.5/images/emoticons/sad.gif!. It only seems to happen with iTunes 8, though. Not any of the earlier versions. I've been trying to find a solution for days and I've been looking at a lot of apple support discussions, but no solution has been found yet. I tried to update it once, and I had to reinstall my whole eMac with the original formatting discs! Do you have an eMac? Because if you have an iMac, then it will work.

    You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

  • Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes?

    Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes? The Ipod Touch, by itself does not allow cross-fading, therefore when the stop time is edited short, the song jusst truncates then goes to the next song. I tried the DJay ap and while it would crossfade, it would NOT read the song settings for the stop marker. So now I want to try and Ipad and see if there is an app that will READ the Itune stop settings within the song. I do NOT want an app that will allow me to DO the stop marker. I want an app that will READ the stop marker from the song as it is set in Itunes.

    Itunes provides the option for setting the Start and Stop times of each music track.  However, the start and stop times do not synchronize to the iPhone.  I don't understand why this option is even available as it doesn't work when listening to music on the phone.  I have not found another application that will support the start and stop time markets.  I have searched quite a bit for this but can't find anything.  I hope we can find something.

    Hi Bill!
    If the decrypt went without any interruptions or anything that looked like an error then your computer is probably OK. The fact that none of your accounts can log in leads me to believe you may some corruption somehwere else.
    Find your software installation CD or DVD that came with your Mac or that you purchased in a store and insert it into the drive. You can boot to it by holding down the "C" key at startup.
    After you pass the initial screen for language you'll see the software installation page. Ignore this. Instead look under the menus for Disk Utility. Run Repair Permissions and Repair Disk. Restart and try to log in again.
    If that doesn't work then restart from the disk again and look for the menu option to reset an administrator password. If you can get into just one admin account then you should be able to reset passwords for any others.
    If resetting an admin password doesn't work then I suggest you look into using a third party tool such as DiskWarrior from Alsoft <http://www.alsoft.com>. It is an excellent tool for repairing disk problems. If you have Apple Care then you may have also receieved a CD for TechTool. You can run that as well.
    Hope this helps!
