I cannot open itunes on my mac. The Icon jumps, but nothing else happens.
I may have shut my computer off while a new version of Itunes was downloading. Not sure if this would affect it, but I can't open it now. When I click on the icon, it jumps a little, but nothing else happens! Any ideas?? Help! I can still open it on my iphone.
Boot from your Snow Leopard install DVD, run Disk Utility and run Disk First Aid.
Reboot.
Then Apple menu > Software Update.
Then reinstall iTunes.

When I turn it on the apple appears but nothing else happens??
I have Ipod touch when I turn it on the apple appears but nothing else goes on help??
What happens if you try a hard reset? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If its still stuck at the Apple logo, try connecting it to your iTunes library in recovery mode and restoring it.

On using my latop yesterday, i opened itunes and it gave me the option to update to the new software, which i was happy to do. I went through all the stages on installing the software and it opened up for use.
On using the software to download new music, i found it was freezing quite a lot and just in general wouldnt work. I closed the prgramme after having to use task manager as it wouln't respond. I then re-opened the programme and it came up with the message 'Do you wish to allow this prgramme to make changes to your computer?' i automatically said yes and expected itunes to open however, it didn't. I ran through troubleshoot compatibility however the issue found said 'Incompatibe application' to which i didnt know what it meant.
I've tried everything to make it work. Re-starting the computer, going on unistalling the programme and repairing it but, nothings worked.
I dont want to unistall the programme because i dont want to lose my music. I need a way to fix the programme without unistalling it.
Can anyone help??I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

When I click the link Firefox shows a status bar and states that it is connecting to the update server, but the status never changes and nothing seems to be happening.
Sometimes the updater gets in a funny state - Go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and download the full installer. Close Firefox and run the installer

It's actually my teenage daughter's MacBook, and she's driving me crazy wanting me to fix it... any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!Try:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

cannot open iTunes. I get the message" the file--iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. How do I proceed?
Had same problem and solved it without having to reinstore any music or movies:
1. Delete old Library file
2. Go to the 'Previous iTunes Libraries' folder and copy one of the earlier files - note, they have a date extension, e.g. 'iTunes Library 2011-11-01'.
3. Paste this file in your iTuners folder and rename file by removing the date extension - 'iTunes Library'
You should have all your music and paylists in tact, unless it was a really old previous file. -

Hi
i have a Mac book little bit old .and I use LR5
when i want to use the defat correction tool , i open the tool , i choose "correction" and then i clic on the defaut
a second circle appears but nothing else happens . No correction
do i miss something???
ThanxIt's sounds like you're using the Spot Removal tool. What happens depends on the Feather and Opacity controls. If the Opacity is at 0, you won't see any change. 100 will give the full healing or cloning, while feather controls the size of the edge of the healing.

When I try to download apps, I am asked to answer security questions. However, when I cklick "continue", I am required to type in my Apple ID password but nothing else happens. Bottomline, I am not able to download apps at the time which is annoying.
Try downloading something from the iTunes Store on the iPad and see if that solve the password problem.

My Apple TV suddenly stopped working. When I hit a button on the remote the light on the apple tv flickers but nothing else happens. Anyone know how I can fix this?
I had the same problem; Apple TV was working proper then for no reason I got the continuous blinking front LED. The Apple TV has no sound or video output at all. I tried reseting the Apple TV via my Apple remote controller but that didn't do anything for me. I finally called Apple and they told me that the way to fix my box is to reset the Apple TV to factory default. So I had to attach the Apple TV to one of my Apple computers and launch iTunes. Once iTunes was running it recognized my Apple TV and I clicked on the option to restore to factory default. After the restore my Apple TV now works properly. My final action on the Apple TV was to sign into my account and enter my password.

I tested 10.5.6 on a partition with the old Canon iPF 1.30 drivers. Looks like the only change that I can tell is that the media selection now makes the forced to Colorsync setting choose the profile (in the driver) that is set for that media in CU.
