or              
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • Help! I have and iPod classic 120GB but with the latest iTunes downloaded to my computer, I can't download to my iPod. I had possible not kept up with the latest updates (?) so I downloaded what seems to be the latest iTunes but I still can't dnload tunes

    Can't download my new iTunes songs. Maybe I had not done iTunes updates for a few months (?) so I downloaded what seems to be the latest iTunes to my computer and it still doesn't download my new songs. Am not to computer savy so I would appreciate any help. Thank you very much.

    Do you, perhaps, mean "sync" instead of "download?" Please describe the problem you are having in more detail so we can better help you. Include the exact text of any error messages you are getting.

  • I download exclusively from itunes and I have been having issues with the music stopping after about 25 seconds either skipping to the next song or just going silent and still moving as if it is playing? how do i fix this?

    I have an ipod nano, classic and Iphone4s...i download itunes, it says it is completely downloaded, i go to play it either on my pc or on one of my devices and it plays about 24 seconds of the song and skips to the next song. Sometimes it continues to "play" as in the timer is still moving but there is no sound or picture...how do i fix this? It is really frustrating...i let it go with one or 2 songs but when it is everything I download any more I'm getting fed up. I tried going into the info on the song and options and making sure it didn't have the stop time changed (the solution that apple support gave me) Any solutions? I want to actually listen to the music I download!!!

  • My Mac Mini has a password and a wireless keyboard and mouse that have been working well with bluetooth until two days ago when my keyboard stopped responding. Since I have a password on Mac Mini, I am unable to access settings to pair Mac Mini. Thanks.

    Can anyone help me pair my BT keyboard with my password protected Mac Mini? I am currently unable to log in to Mac Mini since the BT keyboard has become unpaired.  The wireless mouse is working.  I also have an I Pad and an I Phone as well as Mac TV.
    Please help!!
    Thank you.

    I had exactly the same issue, that the Apple wireless keyboard became unpaired, and I couldn't get past the password-protected log-in screen, because I didn't have a wired keyboard laying around.
    OK folks,
    Discovered by trial and error that it was the wireless mouse (not an Apple brand) that was preventing the keyboard from pairing, even though it's not a bluetooth mouse...
    Here's the steps I used...
    1. Disconnected the USB  mouse cord from the Mac Mini.
    2. Turned off the Apple wireless keyboard from switch on the back.
    3. Turn Mac Mini off, then back on.
    4. Waited for it to boot up as far as  the password-protected screen.
    5. Turned on the Apple wireless keyboard, waited for it to stop blinking, indicating (hoping) that it paired        up.
    6. And voila... was able to then type in the password...
    7. Then plugged the non-Apple wireless mouse sensor  cord back into the Mac Mini's USB port
    I also immediately went in to the MacMini's Sharing options and set that up for remote management in case something else happens down the road for other problems...
    Thanks though to all who suggested solutions... they may come in handy in the future.
    Hope this helps someone else...

  • Can no longer tether after update to iOS8.1.1 - PLEASE help!

    I rely on this feature for my business. I now have no connection
    Everything was fine in iOS6 - I do not know why I updated something that WAS working fine!
    But I have and now I cannot connect my MacPro nor my MBP, to my iPhone 5
    I have tried every suggestion I can find, both here and on other venues.
    All equipment is signed in to the same iCloud account,
    The iPhone internet via Verizon LTE is working fine (by itself) ie I can browse on the phone etc
    Hot spot shows on both Mac's - and both Mac's will tether to iPhone - but nothing will load in Safari, nor Mail
    Both computers are running OS 10.7.5, I had no problems before the update.
    The update did crash the phone which then went into recovery mode and restored from back-up.
    I really need a solution and fast - I am loosing $$$
    Thank You

    I now have two threads on this - anyone reading - it seems after a 2nd full restore it's working again - fingers crossed!

  • HT204266 I have an iPhone 4s and I have been having troubles with the downloaded apps. I have tried everything from re installation to restarting and deleting but nothing is working. When I press the icon, there is a flash and I return to my home screen.

    Exactly as I mentioned above, the app just gives a flasha nd returns to the home screen, I have tried everything and nothing has really worked. Any suggestions?

    Basic troubleshooting steps straight out of the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW.  Have you been through ALL of these steps?

  • I purchased the 30 day subscription of Adobe Pro for my Mac Air and downloaded the app and opened it as instructed. Nothing appears to happen after that and I have been unable to use Adobe Pro thus far.

    I purchased the 30 day subscription of Adobe Pro for my Mac Air and downloaded the app and opened it as instructed. Nothing appears to happen after that and I have been unable to use Adobe Pro thus far.

    I previously downloaded a trial version of Adobe Pro and had used it the last 30 days. Today I just clicked on the link from my purchase confirmation and downloaded some type of installer. Once I clicked on the installer and gave it permission to do whatever it needed to do, it just sort of stalled. I am running Mac OS Yosemite. I thought Yosemitie might be part of the problem because it has given me occasional problems with Word and some other programs. 

  • My Ipad and macbookair have been stolen. How can I find the imei code of both devices considering that were all registered on icloud?

    My Ipad and macbookair have been stolen. How can I find the imei code of both devices considering that were all registered on icloud?

    Unless you have configured iCloud on the MacBook Air and made sure that Find My Mac was turned on, you can't track that.  And even if you did do that, that is not a foolproof method of tracking, as it relies on the thief connecting to the internet using the guest account on the machine and not getting in to your account and disabling Find My Mac or wiping the hard drive and installing a clean system.
    As for the iPad, similar rules apply there.  If it is a wifi-only iPad, it cannot be tracked any other way.  If it has 3G, your wireless carrier may be able to help you track it.

  • TS4062 After installing the lastest update to my ipod touch I can no longer sync my ipodto my computer no matter what I do.  I believe it has to do with the password for my ipod and the possibly the password for my itune account.  If anybody has any sugge

    After installing the latest update to itunes, and my ipod, I can no longer sync my computer and my ipod nomatter what I do.  I have tried everything I know and can read.  I am beginning to think it has something to do with the password that I changed, but I tried to change it back and nothing happens.  Does anybody have any suggestions.  I have been working on this for three hours and I can't figure it out?  Apple is no help and it was their updates that messed the whole thing up.

  • While doing the backup via iTune, my contacts in iPhone AND iPad have been completely wiped out. They are still all available on my Address Book on my Mac. Any idea what happened and how to resolve this ?

    Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

  • I have been having problems with my iPod touch and my WRT...

    I have been having problems with my iPod touch and my WRT54G router. I am so frustrated right now because after following the various steps mentioned in one of these threads, following Earthlink's prompts, and speaking with Apple, my iPod touch will still not work. It is connected to the internet but will not download the pages. It is quite frustrating. I have changed from WPA to WEP, I switched the 4th Generated key to the 1st. I've disabled this, enabled that. I've done just about everything. I updated the firmware. I made the switch from a partial bridge to a full bridge. Still nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any other suggestions? The one thing I have not done is enter the Apple code into the iPod which searches for website...-- I cannot access the internet with my iPod so this web address does not work. If anyone has been successful, will you please give me step by step instructions? Yesterday I was on the phone with Linksys for about an hour. Before that with Apple for about an hour and before that with Earthlink. How it is that I can walk into a Bread Co. or Apple Store and immediately connect to the internet with my iPod but I can't in my own house?? Everyone seems to think it is someone else's problem so I've gone around and around. Not one of the Linksys support personnel suggested I look here on this community forum. I had to pay the $9 fee to have advanced Linksys help but still my iPod does not work and when I called back, the man I spoke with seemed to think the case was closed because my PC, Laptop, and iPod are connected to the internet -- the iPod just won't download the webpages or get mail. My iPod's IP address begins with 192. I would appreciate any help on this matter

    I had the same issues with my iPod touch & iPhone. It's a known issue with the touch & Linksys G routers. Go into settings on the touch & do the following.
    1. Settings - wifi - linksys
    2. Erase your DNS settings & input same numbers as in router
    Settings.
    3. Http proxy should be
    in off position.
    4. Close out & open safari you should now have a wireless
    connection.

  • So I have a gen2 8gig iPod touch and just the other day updated to 4.3 and now my pod wont show up in iTunes. Is it not compatible? Does this mean I can no longer sync my iPod??

    I can no longer sync my iPod as it does not show up in my iTunes anymore, is this because I upgraded my Itunes??

    You should still be able to sync you iPod.  Your iPod just can be updated past iOS 4.2.1.
    Assuming you have a PC, start her to get your computer to see the iPod.

  • I can no longer sync music to any of my ipods.  It shows that it is syncing,but it is stuck and won't go past the "syncing to ipod' state

    I can no longer sync music to any of my ipods.  It shows that it is syncing, but it doesn't.  It worked fine a few weeks ago.  Any suggestions?

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • I can no longer sync my touch with my computer.  I'm being told that "the sync server failed to sync the iPod."

    Are you sure that these times are still selected to sync in iTunes?
    When you connect your iPad to your PC and with iTunes running, select your iPad under the devices button in the upper right corner of the iTunes window. Then click on the Movies tab and make sure that the movies are selected (checked) to sync. Check the playlists in the Music tab as well.
