HT4061 Hi I tried to upgrade Itunes and it says if I proceed I will lose all media

I need help as I tried to upgrade Itunes and my phone has a picture on it of ITunes and a plug in. I can't open anything

Your phone is in recovery mode. All data on it are already gone. You need to connect your phone to your computer via USB and restore in iTunes.
If you've been smart and using your phone as recommended, all your data should have been recently backed up so data loss should be neglibible.

It's in recovery mode. Anything that was on the phone and not already backed up is already gone. You have no choice but to restore.

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Go to www.ecamm.com and d/l PhoneView.
To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place.
With PhoneView you can take the content from the device to the iTunes library.

I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everythi

I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. I have authorized this new computer so I don't know what the problem is. I can't get on my old computer with my itunes account because the computer is broken. Not sure what to do

"I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
Correct. it does not magially appear in other places. It will only be where you put it.
"I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. "
Correct as well. Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

I'm trying to download itunes, and it say's verify privileges before it can start. how do I do that?

Don't know what happened to my orginal itunes, it say's it didn't download correctly.......duhh, I've had it for years!

Hi charinmt,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you are not able to download or install iTunes due to insufficient priviliges, make sure that you are logged into your computer as an administrator:
Make sure you have an administrator account.
To install iTunes or QuickTime, you need to log in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure you have an administrator account, you may find this Microsoft article helpful: Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?You can refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visit support.microsoft.com for more information.

I tried upgrading iTunes and it says I'm missing the file AppleVersions.dll . What do I do?

I recently uninstalled one of those "free trial" music download things, and now my iTunes won't work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but I keep getting the same message "AppleVersions.dll is missing" What do I do? I've been trying to fix this all week, and I'm about ready to smash my iPod to smithereens.

It worked, now iTunes is running. If I can ask one more question, my iPod is "attached" to an old laptop that I don't have anymore. Apple tells me there's no way to merge the music on my iPod with the music in my iTunes account. I no longer have the CDs as I didn't think I'd need them anymore once the songs were on my iPod. Any advice here? I can't believe I'd have to lose all that music.
Apple has to respect the agreement between them and the copyright owners, we users here have to respect Apple and can't recommned software that can potentially be used to infringe copyrights.
So I point you in the direction of iLounge, users there can help you with a third party solution.
If you have the old laptop and can extract the hard drive, use a IDE/SATA to USB adapter or boot the laptop from a Linux disk/USB, the files can be recovered.
I have detailed instructions if your interested I can post them.
And thank you in advance for the points.

HT1349 I keep trying to install itunes and it says apple app support error2

I am trying to install itunes, keeps coming uo apple app support error2

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Upgrading itunes and disappearing drives

i could use some help,here is my problem :
after upgrading to any itunes version above 5.0 everything works exept windows and all of my burning programs(roxio--alchool120)do not recognise any burning drive.i have a cdrw internal burner and an external burner.none gets recognised.
when itunes first runs i tells me my config folder for the burning drives is empty please reinstall the drives.
should the external drive get installed again when i plug it in?why the new versions of itunes does this ?
so i use system restore to go back a day and everything works again,but the itunes version goes back too.
i hate ipods the only reason i do this is because of my son
ps:is there any way to get the ipod recognised by a old version of itunes?
dell dimension 8200 Windows XP sp1

ok this is the complete story (long version,will try to make it short)
holyday 2003 : install ipod itunes(ver 5?) everything works fine.
sometimes after don't know when my son updates to itunes (i believe 5.1?)and at the time after upgrading the i tunes worked but upon opening the itunes for the first time,
we had a message like this : itunes cannot find the registry settings to allow me to burn cds,please reinstall cds? .after that none of my burning programs had a default burnerand could not burn with any of it. so all freaked out i system restored to 2 days before. all my recording drives started working again and i told my son not to upgrade itunes anymore.
fast forword to few day ago: old ipod broke(hard drive gone) my son buys new ipod w/video from his friend. install ipod works with old itunes. complains because he cannot tansfer video to ipod with old itunes.swears the itunes is now to 6.0 and all bugs are now worked out.tries to upgrade itunes and bam.itunes don't work quicktime don't work all burning drives disappeared again.so much for all bugs worked out!after reverting to old itunes (i went crazy because itunes did not work ,had to clean out registry and install a stand alone version of quick time)now i have officially given up to upgrading itunes!
the old itunes now works with the new ipod but he has no way to tranfer video to it.
i tank you for your kindness in answering me but my only other question is:
is there any other program that let's you transfer videos(any file for that matter) to ipod?
and why can't mac people make the ipod appear and work like an external drive?
why can't we window users copy and paste a file directly into ipod?
sorry but i'm really ****** off

Tried to update my itunes and it says "iTunes installed incorrectly" now i cannot access my library

tried to update itunes and it says after download "iTunes installed incorrectly" now I cannot access my library.....HELP!!

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.
