I can't get my iTunes to update to the new version.

I updated my iPod and so I need to update my iTunes. When I try it tells me this: "Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\SyncServices\Schemas\Calendars.syncschema\Contents\Resources\ja.lproj\L ocalizable.strings" Help!!

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • TS3212 I can't get my itunes to start downloading the new update on my pc.

    About two weeks ago, my itunes on my pc said there was an update available, but I put off updating it until I can do it at night when I have more download capacity available. Now I can't get the message asking to update to come up again, and when I search for available updates, it says one is available, but when I select to download it, nothing happens. I've tried over several days now. Restarted computer and itunes, but still can't get the download to start. Never had this problem before.I have Itunes version 10.6.3.25 on my pc right now and it says version 10.7 is available. I can't get the download to start off the Apple website either.
    Thanks,
    Liz

    I can't get the download to start off the Apple website either.
    Could you walk us through what happens when you try to download an installer from the Apple website, please?

    I  can't  get my iTunes to update to 10.5. The first time it gave an error about a bad license and now I'm trying again and it's stuck on 1.20/2.60 MB. I have a newer computer with windows 7 home edition

    Hi Spencer,
    I disabled my antivirus system and that seemed to do the tricked. Tell me if that worked for you as well.

    I updated to the new version of Itunes and now I can't sync my ipod or iphone.  It's not recognizing either in Itunes, but both are charging.  How can I get Itunes to recognize my devices (that have always been recognized until this latest software update)?

    Hi there bowlerinager75,

  • I have 3 iTunes libraries on my one one computer and since I updated to the new version I can no longer see who's library I am in. It used to show at the top of iTunes the name of the library I was in.  Is there a way I can tell which library I am in?

    No. Frequently the apps take up more storage space on the iPod that the file download size.

  • Why can i not update to the new version of iPhoto and Garageband through the appstore?

    When trying to update, I keep getting the pop-up:
    "We could not complete your request
    There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (null)".
    How can I update to the new version?
    Im running on the OS X Lion 10.7.4 system for Macbook Pro I have the Version 9.2 of iPhoto and 6.0.4 of Garageband. If that's of any assistance.

    I think iLife is being updated from MAS now, thus the need for a AppleID to update it.
    One person had iLife and tried to update with a differnent AppleID and it rejected it, seems they bought a open box machine and iLife was installed using another AppleID for display purposes.
    When one reinstalls Lion, and has to install iLife, they have to go to MAS to do it.
    Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X Lion
    If you reinstall Lion on a new Mac that shipped with OS X Lion installed, on an erased or replaced hard drive, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
    After installation, start from Lion.
    Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to compete installation of your applications.

  • If you update to the newer version of itunes, will it delete the music i already have???

    can somebody help me please??  if i update to the new version of itunes, will it delete the music i already have??

    No it will not.
    The music is yours on your drive, only you, or malware or a drive crash, can delete that data.
    pLeAsE make backups of your valuable data.
    Apple makes it's easy in iTunes, File > Library > Backup to Disk   Feed it DVD-R's label and data, or use a external drive.
    Apple doesn't reinssue downloads. The music is yours you bought it.

    Hi I have just upgraded my computer to Mac OSX 10.6.7 now I cant open my FCE 4. Message reads, Hardware missing -AGP Graphics card. How can I get my FCE 4 working on the new computer? Cheers

    Thanks, just so I know we are talking about the same items please let me know - When you say "run Prokit" do you mean downloaded? Which I did. I dont have Prokit 4.0.1 if you are referring to that, do I need this first? Please explain what application name I am looking for if other than Prokit which is sitting in my "download folder" do I need to manually put it into the apps folder? Sorry if the questions are layman but this area is not a very strong point for me. Thanks for your help so far.

    Okay , you should only delete EMPTY DUPLICATED folders, not preview folders or any others. I would put them all back. Then just delete any DUPLICATED EMPTY folders, do not disturb any other folders. On iOS switch off DOCUMENTS AND DATA under ICLOUD in SETTINGS. Do this on all iOS devices not just the one. Once deleted DUPLICATE FOLDERS on the mac in MOBILE FOLDERS then exit the LIBRARY. Open PAGES on your MAC and view folders on icloud. Check everything is all there as expected. If okay then DELETE and re-install PAGES app on iOS - THEN switch on DATA and DOCUMENTS in ICLOUD. Now open PAGES. If you have Time Machine on you can recover any 'lost' doc files and restore them from your mac from pages application. Try the process again and do not disturb any folders other than ones I mentioned as this is the system files LIBRARY. It is not a place to be over zealous in moving, altering and deleting folders and files. Take care please.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

    Will my ipad 3gen be updated with the new version of iTunes?

    Again, please examine the entire thread. Did you notice that I was the one to provide the answer to the original question, way back these several months ago? So yes, I do think I added something useful to the thread, and was completely justified in asking Arenep83 what he or she was talking about given the complete non sequiturs he or she posted.
    Given that this is only your second time using the Discussions, and I mean this as kindly advice, you might want to spend a bit more time here learning how things work before you post only to criticize someone else's post.
