I can't get into iTunes. What am I doing wrong?
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

[SOLVED] Can't get GDM to run - what am I doing wrong?
Alright, I'm running a fresh, up to date install of Arch in a virtual machine, and I'm consistently unable to get GDM to work properly. I pretty much followed the beginners' guide, and tried reinstalling from scratch several times. I've installed gdm, gnome, gnome-extra, dbus, and anything else the wiki recommends, like virtualbox-archlinux-additions. I edited /etc/inittab and /etc/rc.conf accordingly.
Relevant lines in /etc/inittab:
#Boot to X11
id:5:initdefault:
x:5:respawn:/usr/sbin/gdm -nodaemon
Relevant lines in /etc/rc.conf:
MODULES=(vboxguest vboxsf vboxvideo)
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus network crond)
When I start the virtual machine, it displays the CLI login interface along with a bunch of warnings:
Arch Linux 3.4.4-2-ARCH (tty1)
vbox login: gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.271335 seconds
gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.011053 seconds
gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.011250 seconds
gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.010699 seconds
gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.010361 seconds
gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.010921 seconds
gdm-binary[388]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: GdmLocalDisplayFactory: maximum number of X display failures reached: check X server log for errors
After that, I can still log in just fine, though I obviously never get into any desktop environment because of it. I have no idea where to find the X server log. I skimmed through /var/log, but couldn't find any log file with remotely helpful contents besides 'gdm'. The contents of the 'gdm' file:
** (gdm-binary:519): WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.gnome.DisplayManager
** (gdm-binary:519): WARNING **: Could not acquire name; bailing out
I've been bashing my head against this problem for several days now, but been unable to actually fix it. Anyone feel like pointing out what I'm doing wrong or how to proceed?
Last edited by Caelum (2012-07-11 19:44:04)Aaaand figured it out thanks to that one. I skipped starting it manually in this VM; got it to work when started manually on a previous install, and hence assumed it'd be fine.
Turns out, I was doing the installations of the base packages - # pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-server-utils - wrong somehow. I think I must've missed that step or something; installing xorg-server and xorg-server-utils through Pacman just now solved my problem.
Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.
EDIT: Wonder, you ninja you.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I can't get into the itunes store. Computer is saying to change compatibility mode. I followed the directions to do this, but I do not have a compatibility mode tab. Any ideas on what to do. Does this have anything to do with Google Chrome and Explore, maybe?
Were you connecting regulary up until a week ago? I have noticed that I have gotten a lot of those messages tonight. May the iTune site is very busy? (a lot of iTunes cards given out today)
I closed iTunes and then re-opened and it helped. My connections have been intermittent at best tonight. -

I updated from windows xp to windows 7 and can not get into my itunes account. I get the notice that I am only allowed 5 devices and this isn't a new device just an updated one. How do I get to my itunes?
Take a look at Apple's document for authorizations -> iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization.
You can deauthorize all computers from iTunes. All you have to do is click iTunes Store, click your account name in the upper right corner of iTunes, then deauthorize all. -
I can not get into the iTunes store for the past two days. I can do a search on the music in upper right corner and get a drop down list. However, the screen is then white with "iTunes" in the middle. Any suggestions? Thank you.
Check out this Apple article -> iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
If your computer has one of the LSPs listed you may have to reset winsock.

Can't get into my itunes on ipad. but can get to it on my computer?
I can't get into my itunes on my ipad message reads email address is already verified for another Apple ID but when i go to my computer I get into my acct. just fine. Also when it asked me to verify this ID in an email i get the same message! Now, just so you know I have gone to the account page and edited everything but nothing happens. When I try to retrieve all info on the page that says Apple Acct. forgot ID and password, I type in my name and message reads we do not have your name on file.
Try restarting your iPad first and see if that helps. Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut down. Then hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button and let the iPad restart. Then try to sign in again.
If that doesn't work you can look through this to seek help.

I can't get into the iTunes store!!!
In iTunes when I click on the button to take me to iTunes store a message comes up saying 'The item you've requested is not currently available in the UK store' and now I can't get into the iTunes store at all
I've got this as well and it seems to have affected only the Music and Home pages - do a search in the search bar and you will get to the films etc. Looks like somone goofed! If anyone from Apple checks this out, mine is the UK store. Home page and Music pages only affected.

I can't get into the itunes store without downloading itunes 10.3
I can't get into the itunes store through my itunes because the homepage has the add for updating to itunes 10. I tried to do it, but then realized I don't have the software for it, I need Mac OS 10.5 or higher and I have 10.4. How do I get to the itunes store still, surely I don't have to buy a whole new computer to keep using Itunes? Does anyone know anything about this?

The screen that says "Download Now" also shows the proposed iTunes version number (in the box below):
Be sure it indicates 11.1.3.
