HT4623 iPhone cannot be opened and all apps were gone. it only indicate itunes icon

in the screen all Apps were gone and showing only Apps of iTunes a pointer arrow and connecting cable.

Hi guys, I am pleased to announce, after much caffeine and hours spent finding a solution, that I have fixed my problem. Here is what I did:
If you have this problem and you have CCleaner installed, go to the Startup options and re-enable all start-up programs. If you have any other programs that manage start-up programs then re-enable them under that. Now delete anything files in the Windows Startup folder in the start menu. Don't restart yet... I also went into Microsoft Services (For Windows 7: Start > All Programs > Accessories > Administrative Tools > Services) and switched all services to "Automatic" just to eliminate any problem there. I then restarted and after the long loading time due to excessive start-up programs, I tried opening iTunes and it opened fine.
My start up programs are:
Adobe ARM
Adobe Reader Speed Launcher
Adobe_ID0EYTHM (?)
AVG9_TRAY (Anti Virus)
ccleaner
FileHippo.com
iTunesHelper
msnmsgr (Windows Live Messenger)
MSSE (Microsoft Security Essentials)
QuickTime Task
Others were, Spybot Search and Destroy and Netgear Wizard, but I uninstalled both of these due to errors with the programs and internet connection.
I am guessing that disabling certain start-up programs or disabling processes under Services was the cause of my problem but I hadn't touched either of these at the weekend so I have no idea why this solution fixed iTunes. I hope this thread can help any other users with a similar problem.

  • HT1338 I have a lot of files called FILE0001.CHK etc. on my MacBookPro - they cannot be opened and an app search produces no solution.  Does anyone know what they are please?

    Thanks Charlie and Leroydouglas - apologies for not responding sooner - I am new to the Community and couldn't see how to respond to your queries without 'replying' to myself - hope this works.  I do not use Windows on my Mac but it is possible I ran ScanDisk on my previous Windows laptop.  Perhaps I have inadvertently brought these files to my Mac??  Can I delete the files or will I be losing something I cannot verify?  So appreciate your input - thank you.

  • Plugged in ipod.. synched.. ejected and all songs were gone.

    I just plugged in my ipod, it showed up in iTunes, then i syched 3 new songs onto my ipod. I safely ejected it, and all of the my songs, and playlists and tv shows were erased.. i have no idea what just happened. and i tried to plug it in again to put them back on and it says i need to register it and stuff.

    Did you upload the other songs from the same PC/Mac with the same media library?

  • When i updated my ipad 2 the camera, facetime, safari and youtube apps were gone what do i do?

    i dont understand how the main apple apps can be deleted! also the camera dosent work on any other apps anymore?

    YouTube has been eliminated in IOS 6. You can download the new iPad YouTube app for free in the App Store.
    Check Settings>General>Restrictions and see if you restricted the other apps, as they cannot be deleted.
    Swipe from screen to screen to look for them as well.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
    If the camera is not working, reboot the iPd.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    You now have to give apps permission to use Photos so go to Settings>Privacy>Photos and make sure that apps that need the camera or photos are set to ON.

    I have a 4S and upgraded to iOS 6 last week without any issues.
    Have you tried resetting your phone (hold the power and home buttons down together until the silver apple appears)?

  • I updated my phone but it will not restore so I have a bunch of apps that wont open and all my music and videos are gone.

    I updated my 3GS and it will not restore. All of my apps are ther but will not open and all of my music is gone. Everything is on my itunes but it will not let me sync. It just says to retore from backup or start as new iphone.

    Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the  go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

    The computer that I normally sync my iphone with has crashed and all info lost.... I'm trying to sync and update with my new laptop but I am getting an error meassage that if I continue all purchases, apps etc will be deleted..... How to I do this without losing all my stuff??? Help I have no clue about technology!!!!!

    The official way to do it is to restore the iTunes library that was on your old computer to your new computer using the backup of your whole system you regularly update.  Then you are syncing the phone with the same old library.
    Some of the information below is summarized by turingtest2 in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18842615
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • HT4623 Why is my iPad 2 randomly opening and closing apps? And why, at the same time, does the screen goes bigger than smaller repetitively?

    7.29.2013 - iPad2 begins to randomly open and close apps and also the screen changes from bigger to smaller repetitively when the apps are randomly opening and closing. Nothing occurred with the device to indicate why this started happening; it was not dropped, etc.

    If still problem:
    - 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.

  • I upgraded my new Ipad to OS 5.1.1, and all apps have started crashing. As soon as I open an app it crashes right away. Tried syncing, restarting, hasnt made a difference. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

    I upgraded my new Ipad to OS 5.1.1, and all apps have started crashing. As soon as I open an app it crashes right away. Tried syncing, restarting, hasnt made a difference.

    You mention that you have tried restarting, but did you try a reset?
    Simultaneously hold down the Home and the On buttons until the iPad shuts downs. Ignore the Off slider should it appear. This will take ten seconds give or take. After the sut down is complete, press the Onn button to restart. NOTE: this is different from simply shutting down the iPad.

    When you connect the iPhone to sync with the new computer,  a number of things will happen. If the new computer/iTunes does not contain any music, then yes, you will receive a prompt saying this iPhone is synced to another library, and if you continue, you will lose your music. However, you risk losing a number of other things, such as apps, contacts and calendar data. When you ask about photos, any photos that you have on the iPhone that were synced from the previous computer would also be lost. You need to save the photo folder from the old laptop and transfer that to the new desktop. You also need to sync the contacts and calendar to the same supported application that you were using in the past, such as Outlook, unless you are using an outside web-based sync, such as Google. Also, when you first connect the iPhone, it will make a backup, or at least make sure that it does before you attempt to sync, or you will not have a backup of some of the other things, such as mail settings, SMS, and the contents of the Camera Roll. I would import the photos from the camera roll to the new computer before trying to do anything else in iTunes.

    I got a new computer and all applications were transferred from the old one. However, when I tried launching Acrobat 8 Professional, I get a message that says: "Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be opened at this time and I need to launch another application in the suite e.g.Photoshop" which is already launched. Is there some help around this?

    It appears that you have the CS. What new OS do you have. If it is Win 8.1, you may have to purchase a new version of Acrobat for that system. Folks have succeeded with AA 8.1 on Win 7, but I have not heard of any successful installs on Win 8.1. As for the issue you have with the new OS, you do have to follow the CS install process that is different than the stand-alone Acrobat (there are some posts that discuss the process if you search).
