I accidently deleted quicktime, and now my iTunes 7 won't open

i was doing trying to do disc defragment
on my computer like i do every month but it said
i didn't have 15% free disc space on C:
so i went to control panel -> add/remove program
and kinda deleted my quicktime thinking it was
java (it said last time used was 6 months ago,
even though it was being used everytime i opened itunes).
so i deleted my quicktime, tried to open iTunes.
a box appears saying i need to redownload iTunes.
so i do that, and ever since then when i try to open
my itunes, an error box pops up and says that it needs to
close down (before it even gets a chance to open up).
i'm just really confused because quicktime already comes
with itunes 7, so i think there's some serious glitch
on my computer.
any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

This is an issue alot are facing rightnow because the quicktime bundled with itunes is more "Up to date" for now than the stand alone is. Even when its removed some of its more updated registery keys are left behind.
GO here and follow ALL steps for removing itunes and quicktime, apple updater and ipod updater EXCEPT DO NOT install itunes til you get to the bottom of the page http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976

Reinstalled Tiger and now my iTunes library won't open.

Hi. I reinstalled Tiger and now my iTunes library won't open. And I can't install the latest 10.5 version of iTunes on this Mac. How do I get an older version of iTunes that will run this library? Any other thoughts? Thanks!

Yes. Check to see if the iTunes application has been moved or renamed before installing it.

I accidently deleted Safari and now I can't reinstall because it keeps telling me there is a newer version on my computer. The issue is my system does not support the newer version. Does anyone know how I can get around this?

Apple wanted to charge me 50 bucks jsut to talk to someone!
I believe you may be referring to the $49 ASL agreement at AppleCare? That is only when/if you are out of AppleCare Protection.
Can you get to an AppleStore Genius Bar?
They may be able to fix this for you. No charge.
I highly doubt that. There is a $70 charge for troubleshooing software issues, EVEN IF there is AppleCare Warranty on the hardware.
However, since there is no charge for an appointment at a Bar, go make one, and see what options they give you. Let us know how it goes.

I updated Adobe Flash on my Mac and now my solitaire app won't open. No error message, just -600.

I updated Adobe Flash on my Mac and now my solitaire app won't open. Message just says 'unable to open' -600. I tried to reinstall Full Deck Solitaire, but the app store says it is already installed, so I can't do it that way. What should I do? There's nothing in Help that helps.

Please restart the computer and try again. If it won't restart in the usual way, force a shutdown by pressing and holding the power button for a few seconds. Then press it again briefly to restart.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?
I am running Yosemitie on a iMac.

You won't be able to buy Pages from the Mac App Store on 10.6.8. You need to reload it from the original source.

I just downloaded Mavericks and now my AutoCAD 2012 won't open. What do I do?

I just downloaded Mavericks and now my AutoCAD 2012 won't open. What do I do?

Autocad 2012 is NOT Mavericks compatble.
So, you either need to find and pay for an upgrade AutoCad 2013 which is compatible with OS X Mavericks or pay to upgrade to AutoCad 2014.
If you have a cloned backup of your previous system before upgrading to Mavericks, it would have been easy to revert back to your previous OS X version.
If you don't have a previous backup, your only option, now, is to create a backup of your system and important data , now, to an external hard drive. Once you have a backup, you need to purchase and clean install OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion (if you haven't purchase Mt. Lion already).

AutoCad 2012 is compatble with OS X 10.8. You'll have to reinstall all of your applications including AutoCad.

DELETED QUICKTIME AND NOW iTUNES wont work

I recently had to delete quicktime to install other software for my cell phone. After completeing the download and deciding it unworthy of my attention. I wanted to put quicktime back on. when i go to download the software back on the the computer it says: [quote]The plugin did not initialize properly[/quote]
Also when i click the short-cut for iTunes this pops up:
[quote]iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.[/quote]
I've contacted customer service and they instructed me to delete iTunes and Quicktime and re-download them. I still cannot access iTunes.
thankya kindly,
~$tudmuffin002100

Here's what worked for other users; perhaps it will work for you (I've never had this problem so I can't say for sure):
1) Uninstall QuickTime from the Add/Remove Programs control panel. If you have difficulties, try Microsoft's Installer Cleanup Utility.
2) Clean up the Windows registry with http://www.ccleaner.com/ (freeware)
3) Restart your system.
4) Delete the QuickTime folder
5) Reinstall QT from the standalone installer.
Hope this helps.

10.4.7 update and now my Address Book won't open

I recently ran a software update and the Mac OS X Update 10.4.7 errored out. After the required restart I now find my Address Book won't open.
Any advise to fix this problem?
Is it safe to run the 10.4.7 update again or will this problem repeat?

hi there--
i would check out this thread. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1863756&#1863756 basically, try repairing permissions first. then if that does nothing, see if you have your addressbook.data file. it's possible you could rename a file like this user to regain your info. if the addressbook.data file is there, select it and get info on it by pressing the apple and i on the keyboard. ensure that you have read/write access to the folder. make yourself the owner and make the rest of the fields as open as possible. also, if the address book launches in a different user (you could create a test user) you could do a number of things. if you have a backup of the address book in another place you can try pulling the com.apple.addressbook.plist from the preferences folder in the home user library. do not do this if you have no backup. also you could check ~library/address book plug-ins. if there's stuff in there, try pulling folder to desktop and restarting the computer. keep me posted as to whether or not you make any progress.

Just installed a new kodak printer and now photoDeluxe 2.0 won't open says not enough memory

just installed new kodak all in one
printer and now my photodeluxe 2.0
won't open. This program has worked fine for years can anyone tell me what's going on and how to fix it?

Boy, did you stumble into the wrong forum...
This is the Camera Raw forum relating to raw processing of digital captures-it has zero to do with PhotoDeluxe (which I don't think has been for sale in YEARS...). Sorry, there are no active forums for PhotoDeluxe. Guess you need to upgrade to Photoshop Elements to be even close to current...

Installed IE 8 on my vista home laptop and now my palm desktop won't open .

The desktop that came with my palm Centro worked fine for a year. I installed IE8, now when I try to open the Palm desktop it won't open. I can still hotsync via USB. Windwoes says there is a problem and it can't open but will look to see if there is a solution. Windwoes doesn't find one. I tried to go back to a previous restore point, still nothing. I don't have bluetooth on my computer so new 6.2 desktop is not an option. Help Please

Hello geocostello and thanks for posting on the forums....
You can re-install the 4.2 desktop that came with your centro via the CD. (if you still have it...) If not, you can go to the palm.com and do a search for Desktop Manager 4.2 and download it, then install it. This should not affect your data. Before doing this, try going into the Add/Remove Programs and un-installing the desktop manager from there. Then re-install the software. Again, This should not affect your data.
If the software does not un-install from Add/remove Programs, you can go to microsoft and download the Microsoft Un-install Utility. This should remove the software and registry entries and allow you to re-install the Desktop manager 4.2
Let us know what happens....
Thanks,
Cola

I "updated" my phone and now half my apps won't open. What can I do?

I "updated" my phone and since then half of my apps won't open. I was able to update some and now they open but can't get to the rest.

Make sure you're connected to WiFi and tap the apps to continue the download.
If that doesnt work, try re-setting the device.
Hope this helps!
Kieran.
