HT1941 Hi i have recently updated my version of iTunes in order to sync music from my macbook air to my new ipod shuffle. After a successful installation the application does not launch and I am unable to oepn iTunes of access my music! Someone please hel

Hi,
I have recently updated my iTunes to the latest version in order to sync music onto my new ipod shuffle. However after a successful installation the application does not launch or open? There are no error messages. The application is just unresponsive.
I have already checked the compatibility with Safari, my operating system and checked my firewall is not blocking it - all is fine.
Does anyone have any other resolutions?
Many thanks

Hi Carolyn,
Thank you for your time and response. The trouble is I am unable to launch iTunes? I have restarted my macbook air a number of times to try and initiate the application but the issue persists and the application remains unresponsive. Will not launch?
Thanks

  • After upgrading to iTunes 11 application does not launch and is disrupting other programs

    Hello!
    I have trying to solve this problem all day:
    After updating to iTunes 11 this morning, the application does not launch.
    Furthermore, Windows Media Player, Win DVD8 and my Email Program fail to launch as well.
    I have been through all support pages on iTunes, on support pages on the Windows 7 Forum, and I
    read the answers given in the discussion.
    I have tried and applied the solutions given, but none of them worked.
    What happenes is iTunes tries to launch for a second, then stops, but the process keeps running
    in the task manager.
    All methods through MSCONFIG failed. Uninstalling and re-installing (in the correct order) iTunes, related
    programs and QuickTime failed as well.
    I am on a Windows 7 Home Premium 65 bit desktop computer.
    Up until the update this morning everything was running fine.
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Solved it.
    I had a program running in the background, which did not get picked up by MSCONFIG.
    I looked at the services on CCCleaner and there they were, many instances of this program, slowing the
    computer down and preventing other programs (including iTunes) from functioning.
    Turned them all off, and iTunes and all other pgms work again.

  • When I open firefox 4 beta the webpage does not load and i am unable to click on any buttons or access menus

    This has only started happening today. When I start firefox 4 beta it opens and begins to load my homepage (google.co.uk) but the page never fully loads and firefox freezes. I am unable to click on any buttons on the navigation bar or access menus. Keyboard shortcuts are also unresponsive.
    All that I am able to do on the browser is to use the three window buttons in the top right of the screen (minimise, maximise and close).
    After closing the window if I try to open it again I get a message saying that Firefox is already running, but not responding. Once going into task manager and stopping firefox under the processes tab and then restarting firefox the window again freezes as soon as it opens.
    I have tried restarting my computer and reinstalling the beta but with no success. I am still able to use firefox 3.6.13 as well as chrome with no problems.
    Any help would be much appreciated

    I had this too. Starting firefox in safe-mode and disabling all add-ons solved the problem. After re-enabling all add-ons did not bring back the problem.

  • NI-CAN Bus Monitor Application does not launch

    I have just installed a PCI-CAN Series-2 Card. I tested the card installtion through MAX (by running the Self Test). The card passes the test. However, when I try to launch the Bus Monitor Application, there is no response. No error message is displayed, and the application does not launch.
    Does anybody know why this would occur? Something that I am missing out during the installation?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Generally to get the Bus Monitor Application open, all you have to do is right click on the CAN interface that you want to monitor (in MAX) and click on Bus Monitor. If this is what is failing for you, consider trying the following things:
    -First, make sure that you have updated information about installed hardware in MAX by pressing the F5 key.
    -Run NI-Spy to see if any CAN calls are being made to the NI-CAN Driver. See information about using NI-Spy here: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/webmain/C31BC5FB34DBC0EF86256ADF007B8A47?opendocument
    -What version and revision of the CAN driver is currently installed? You check this in Measurement and Automation by expanding the Software branch and clicking on NI-CAN.
    -If you can watch your
    processes as you try to start Bus Monitor, does a process named nican_bm.exe ever start?
    -Additionally, try starting bus monitor from the command prompt by running C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI-CAN\bin\nican_bm with parameter CAN0 so your command is (without quotes): "nican_bm CAN0".
    -If you have a 2 port card, have you successfully been able to run Obj2Obj? I'm curious if your CAN interface is working properly at all. From the NI-CAN\utilities directory, run obj2obj.exe with a correctly terminated cable connecting both ports of your CAN card.
    Let me know the results of this if you are still having problems.
    Thanks,

  • I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides screen is ok. Is there a way around it? :(

    I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question. 

    Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
    Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

  • The programme keeps 'not responding' and I am unable to view options as the programme keeps freezing. Help

    The programme keeps ‘not responding’ and I am unable to view options as the programme keeps freezing.
    I am unable to use Firefox on many sites as it keeps not responding. Every time I click tools and then options the programme freezes. I have tried starting in safe mode still did not work I have re-installed Firefox and that has not worked. I have not used ‘Explorer’ for at least 10 years but I may have to change soon as I am unable to work with Firefox at present.

    Spent about 4 hours yesterday trying to figure out why bookmarks is behaving so poorly with such a slow response. The response time is directly related to the number of bookmarks in each folder. It takes 8 seconds to process a bookmark. The 8 seconds occur between an sqlite shm unlock and the next sqlite lock.
    At the start, the first and 3rd systems were behaving OK, the 2nd system was responding poorly. Did all the usual basic, restarted FF, rebooted system, etc.
    THEEEENNNNN--the 3rd system started acting up. Tried tracing, etc. -- didn't see anything specific. Messed around with systems 2 and 3 and ,THEEENNNN, the both started working OK!
    '''And about a minute later, the first system crapped out! '''
    Screwed around another 1/2 hour and THEEEENNNN, all 3 systems started working OK. Cannot recreate the problem and I don't have a clue as to what I did to correct the problem!
    All 3 systems are on the same internal network--192.168...... This leads me to believe that there is some kind of cross communications between systems. I do have Sync turned off, so I don't think that's the problem. But what.....????

  • Email application does not launch

    Hi,
    I am using abode reader x, windows 7 & outlook 2010.  When I attach a pdf to an email through the abdoe program & press attach, it reads "launching email applciation", but nothing then happens.
    Can anyone assist me with this please?
    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled and played with the default program settings.
    Thoughts?
    Thank you.

    Thank you for responding.
    Yes, outlook is running.
    Some additional information:
    Outlook & Word 2010.  Excel 2000.  I have a program that I have to use that is not compatible with excel 2010.  I have tried to rename the mapi32.dll to mapi32old.dll, but Windows 7 prohibited me from making that change.  I have also have tried to use fixmapi.exe, but the application does not run, despite the fact that I have administrator settings.
    I had the exact same configuration on my previous computer (which was new, but returned for other reasons) and I was able to email from word & adobe.

  • I rented a movie and it downloaded but the movie skips and i can hear the words but the picture does not? and now the movie is gone from the library and i only rented it an hour ago? what do i do?

    I rented a movie and it downloaded but the movie skips and i can hear the words but the picture does not? and now the movie is gone from the library and i only rented it an hour ago? what do i do?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I purchased QT Pro, and the manual indicates that you can export to Windows Media.  However, the application does not give me that option.  Am I missing something?

    How can I export a movie to Windows Media using QT Pro?  Upgraded QT7.7 to Pro for this reason based on the graphic in the QT manual that indicates Windows Media is an export selection.

    In my original e-mail I actually pasted a screen print of the drop-down menu in the manual.  However, here is the link:
    http://images.apple.com/quicktime/pdf/QuickTime7_User_Guide.pdf
    Go to section 4:  Exporting Files with Quicktime Pro.  Page 42 has an illustration of the menu choices.  The text states “To see the list of file formats available for a movie open in QuickTime Player, choose File > Export and browse the list of file format choices in the Export pop-up menu.”  In the illustration of the drop-down menu, the selection “Movie to Windows Media” is listed between “Movie to QuickTime Movie” and “Sound to AIFF.”  However, the actual application does not provide this option.  After reading the support threads (after my purchase), users agree that  WMV is not supported.  However, the Apple user manual clearly displays this option and it was this documentation that led me to purchase the QT Pro upgrade.  If the format is not supported, why is it listed in the documentation?
    I feel that this illustration is misleading, and I’m requesting a refund based on the fact the application does not support an option illustrated in Apple’s published manual.
    If this e-mail supports attachments, the attached file is the pdf version I saved of this manual.
