Hey 78463,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities! I didn't see that particular error message in any documentation, but issues installing iTunes are resolved a majority of the time by completing the troubleshooting steps in the following article:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows

  • Trying to redeem iTunes card told first time purchase on computer needs security question answered which I did not set up or know the answer to

    Trying to redeem iTunes card. Was told first time purchase needs security questions answered and don't remeber setting them up to start with and I have made several purchases before without answering questions. Getting no help from Apple support. How can I make new answers for new security questions.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • HT4859 i recently got the iphone 4s. and also got a new HP laptop. I connected my iphone for the first time on my computer and now i can't access my music on my device, any ideas?

    I need help with my music. I got the Iphone 4s and plugged it in my new computer..I can see the list of my songs but as soon as i click to listen to it.. jumps into next song and I can't play any of them. I did my  back up to Icloud yesterday..but not sure how to restore from that back up..also would like to have all this songs transfered to my computer
    thank you

    Did you by chance have photo stream turned on? If so then they might be there. When you restored your phone it deleted everything and they will be unretreivable from your computer.

    When you saw this dialog box, did you choose "Erase and Sync"?
    If you did, your iPhone was erased, then your iTunes Library was transferred to it. If your iTunes Library was empty, your iPhone will be also.
    Your previously purchased music, apps, books, and videos are still yours. You just have to download them again.

    PLEASE HELP ME I AM FACING A PROBLEM
    My name is Ameer.
    I watch youtube videos from ipad2 ( safari )
    today for my first time, when i run a video and i want to pause it, i touch the screen where the video is playing to reach the pause botton that is located on a bar under the video which appears when i touch the screen. Today every time i touch the screen nothing happens and i cannt pause the video nor adjusting its quality.
    So plese help me fixing this problem as soon as posible.
    Regards

    Same problem on my ipad mini, running ios 6.0.2.
    A bit more info:
    -tried using YouTube in Safari on another ipad. Worked fine.
    Tried reboot (sleep + home buttons for 15 seconds). Didn't fix.
    -tried logging out of my YouTube account, thinking the problem was tied to my settings. Didn't fix.
    -tried uninstalling all apps I downloaded since the last time YouTube worked properly. Didn't fix.
    -tried watching a video in desktop mode. Can tap video screen to bring up pause okay in that mode.
    There are work arounds, but the thing I want to know is why YouTube doesn't work in Safari as of a couple of days ago, and is it indicative of another more serious problem with my ipad.

  • I plugged my iPhone for the first time to my computer,the iTunes screen came up and asked if I wanted to register the phone as a new phone or with the backup from my iPod. By accident, I clicked on the backup from my iPod, and I lost everything.

    Hi,
    I plugged my iPhone for the first time to my computer. The iTunes screen automatically came up and asked if I wanted to register/set-up my iPhone as new phone or using the backup from my iPod. Without knowing what was going to happen, I clicked on the backup from my iPod and then I lost everything I already had in my phone: mostly contacts and pictures. Although afraid of the answer, is there a solution to retrieving the info, especially the pictures?
    Thank you!

    by any chance did you do a back up to iCloud? if not there isn't a way to retrieve lost info with out a back up.

    The other Allan is being facetious--you somehow found the forum for pre-2006 eMac desktop computers that gets little traffic.

    Hi, raneth's boyfriend!
    Unfortunately, iTunes was told to restore all data from an old backup onto the new phone, and that cannot be undone.
    However, prior to this, iTunes 10 would have also asked to make a backup of the phone before doing the restore.  If the user elects to say "yes" to perform the backup, then iTunes would have backed up the phone before erasing it.
    Hopefully, that backup will still be available in iTunes, and if so, it would be backed up under the new phone's name prior to it being erased and restored (if the name of the new phone is different to the name of the old phone).
    To check if iTunes has a backup of the phone prior to the restore, look in the Devices category in iTunes Preferences.  All backups made are timestamped and are identified with the iPhone's name at the time of the backup.  Look for:
    • a backup of the phone using the new phone's name prior to the erase and restore, or
    • a backup with the same date and time as that when the phone was erased and restored (not the date and time AFTER when the phone was erased and restored!).  This may be the case if the new and old phones have the same name.
    If a backup is available, you can erase and restore again using that backup. The phone will be restored with what would hopefully be the original image of the new phone.
    If no backup was made prior to erasing and restoring the phone initially, then there is no way to
    undo it, meaning your phone's original data has been lost.

  • I updated to iTunes 12.0.1.26 and I am trying to burn a play list and it gives the following message: disc burner or software not found.  This is the first time that I have this problem.  Can any one help me please?

    I have a Mac Book Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7; Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Mac OS X Version 10.7.5
    I updated to iTunes 12.0.1.26 and I am trying to burn a playlist and I get the following message:  "Disc burner or software not found" .  I have burned lots of CD's and DVD's before and this is the first time I get this message and cannot burn anything.  Can anybody help me, please?

    Hello queenabs,
    It sounds like you are trying to burn a playlist to a disc in iTunes, but you are getting the error, "disc burner or software not found."  I found a couple of resources that I think might help with an error like this.
    I recommend starting with the steps in this article:
    iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2308
    If you are still having trouble with burning a disc after following the steps in that article, I recommend following the steps in this article:

  • Just used my FaceTime for the first time, and my audio kept cutting in and out.? Why is it doing that? Or what's causing it? HELP!

    I tried facetiming for the first time and my audio kept cutting in and out.. WHY!? It was so annoying. Does anyone know what might be the problem? Connection? Thanks!

    Do you have a Corp. Exchange account on your phone? I ask, because the requirement to encrypt an iPhone backup can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone when setting up the Exchange account.

  • This is the first time this has ever happened but I plug in any device iPod, iPhone and the computer opens up a found new hardware wizard. I can't sync any of my devices and I'm not happy. Any helpers?

    I can't connect any of my devices to my iTunes. Anytime I plug one of them into my computer I get a new hardware wizard window that pops up and I can seem to load anything from an iPod or iPhone if I run the wizard. Any helpers? I've been using iTunes on this computer for a very long time and this is the first time that this wizard has shown up ever. Please help.

    I have replied some one with the same problem.
    If your contacts saved in the SIM, you can import them from SIM. Please see this help.

  • Using web.show_document the first time makes new browser window lose focus

    Hi,
    In our application we use show_document(url, '_blank') to open our reports (as pdf) in a new window.
    Our environment is Application Server 10g Release 2 with Forms 10g Release 2 and jinitiator 1.3.1.22.
    The first time I call a report, the new browser window containing the pdf is shown but loses focus after about 1 second. The focus is then returned to the applet window. When calling a report again it always keeps the focus.
    After closing the applet window and restarting the application, the same thing happens: first report called loses focus, all others keep the focus.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? We want the focus to stay on the new browser window every time...

    Hi Jeroen,
    I m also facing a problem something similar to yours. If you got any solution please let me know.
    Problem-
    Currently my application is running on Forms 9.0.4.2 and my form calls another third party which displays the image in image viewer in new browser. When user clicks on the button to display image, then I m using the following Code -
    -- Method: displayDocuments ([Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;
    FUNCTION displayDocuments(
    obj ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT,
    a0 ORA_JAVA.JARRAY) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
    BEGIN
    args := JNI.CREATE_ARG_LIST(1);
    JNI.ADD_OBJECT_ARG(args, a0, '[Ljava/lang/String;');
    RETURN JNI.CALL_STRING_METHOD(FALSE, obj, 'com/hli/imaging/adapter/LK_FormsImagingAdapter', 'displayDocuments', '([Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;', args);
    END;
    Image is displaying fine but the focus is staying on the newly opened browser. I want it to get back the focus to the forms window.Is this possible ???
    Thanks in advance

  • My laptop had water spilled on it 3 days ago, I let it sit as instructed by best buy . I am on it right now but the mouse movement isn't smooth anymore and it is slower. The first time I turned it on it didn't respond at all, how bad is the damage.?

    My laptop had water spilled on it 3 days ago, I let it sit as instructed by best buy . I am on it right now but the mouse movement isn't smooth anymore and it is slower. The first time I turned it on it didn't respond at all,can anyone tell how bad the damage really is without actually seeing it ? Do you think maybe it will be just a simple repair or am I looking at a whole new logic board?

    Until you take it in so that a technician can look at it, it is all guessing and nothing more.
