I downloaded the most recent version of iTunes, and now the iTunes store won't open. It just sits there and says 'accessing iTunes store for hours, but does nothing.
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START>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:

I ran the latest Numbers update and now I cannot open several of the Numbers files I created and saved previously. When I try, a box appears that says I need to update to a newer version of Numbers. I ALREADY updated to the newest version!!!! Any suggestions?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
When you upgraded Numbers to the most recent version, the Mac App Store kept the old version in case you need it in the future. Your problem is that you are opening the old version by mistake instead of the new one.
To fix this, open a Finder window, select Applications in the sidebar and drag the new Numbers version (the one with the new icon) to the Dock. By doing this, you can access to the new Numbers version easily, so you will not open the old version by mistake anymore. Also, I recommend you to open the documents after opening Numbers. The same applies for all other iWork applications.
If you want, you can remove the old Numbers version, but some users have complained about the lack of features of the new Numbers version. Apple will add more features in the future. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US -
I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???
That is Pages for iPad v2.0, which Pages '09 v4.3 can't read.
You need to either stick with the older version of Pages on the iPad or get Pages 5 for the Mac which is only available if you are running OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
Unfortunately that is not the end of your woes because Apple has made iCloud convert the files to Pages 5 now, and Pages 5 has over 90 features deleted on top of doing a shocking job of converting older Pages files.

I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen. How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?
Dear Jean:
It sounds like you are trying to get your external monitor to act as the primary viewing screen. For example it would have your Doc, Icons, Etc. In order to make the external monitor the primary screen you have to:
Open System Preferences.
Choose the Displays Icon
There will be several tabs to choose from pick Arrangement
Drag the toolbar to desired display
Let me know if this helps at all!

How can I quit the photos app? It has been trying to create a library for hours but nothing happens. when I try to quit, it won't let me. Have just upgraded from iPhotos so don't want to lose any content.
How can I quit the photos app? It has been trying to create a library for hours but nothing happens. when I try to quit, it won't let me. Have just upgraded from iPhotos so don't want to lose any content.
Force-quit Photos as recommended by Arsenal1607.
Make backup of your iPhoto Library and run the iPhoto Library First Aid tools to repair the permissions on your library and rebuild the iPhoto Library.
To launch the First Aid Tools hold down the alt/option and the command key simultaneously while double clicking the iPhoto Library to launch the iPhoto Library First aid tools. You'd to hold down both keys firmly and long enough, until the First Aid panel will appear.
Try both the options "Repair Permissions" and "Rebuild library". Then try again to migrate the iPhoto Library to Photos by dragging it onto the Photos icon in the Dock.
Make sure, you have plenty of free storage. Don't try the migration, if you are running out of storage. -
I am aware that the iPod Touch 5g has no official date yet, on the site it only says: Available to ship: October. But, does anyone know what a possible, date for the iPod to be released? :)
Well, I recently checked apple.com, and the "pre-order" button has been replaced with the "buy now" button. This is a very good sign that the iPods will begin to ship soon! There is still no exact date, but I expect that they will ship within the next 3 days. You should get an email when they have shipped.
Take care!

I have a ipod classic, 160gb.
My ipod is showing a red circle with a red "X" in it. Itunes tells me it will prepare my ipod for recovery but does nothing, why?
My computer is a Inspiron 530S using Windows Vista, duo core.All you can do is try restoring the device. If you are unable to you'll most likely have to get the iPod repaired.

I have an original iphone. With the latest version of itunes, 10.5, it no longer syncs. The name of my device doesn't appear in itunes just a gneric iphone. I know its old and apple no longer provides updates to ios but taking away my ablilty to sync is hard to believe. Any suggestions
Did you do a backup of iOS before you changed iTunes?
I would do a reverse and go back to the old iTunes, then update your iPhone and then update iTunes.
Version 4.x of iOS has been out forever, update, update, update.....it is very important to maintain compatability in hardware & software devices/pcs'/Macs. -
I can access my music library, but Itunes Store is not opening. I am just getting a white screen. Any suggestions?
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.
If that doesn't help, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
No data is lost due to a reset. -

Hi rb-14,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are attempting to restore Tones from the iTunes Store. Which method did you attempt to restore the Tones with? On your iPhone, or via iTunes on a computer? Have you tried both methods? If not, definitely give that a go:
Restore missing tones on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch running iOS 8.1.1 - Apple Support

i accidently downloaded something as i opened a site. it now means i cannot use safari because everytime i try to open it, it just goes to a blank black page and wont let me do anything. what can i do? please help! my iphone is either a 3G or 3GS?
You cannot get a virus on an iPhone unless it is jailbroken. The site you displayed may be corrupt, however. Press the HOME button if not on the HOME screen, then press it again. Hold your finger on the Safari app that appears in the recently used ribbon, then tap the "-" to close it. Next go to Settings/Safari and tap Clear History, then Clear Cookies and Data.

HT4972 Updating from iOS4 to iOS5 or later without newest version of iTunes
I can't download the newest version of iTunes (my computer is work-issued, I don't have an administrator password), but I would like to update my iPhone from iOS4 to iOS5. Is there a way I can do this without updating iTunes?
You can not upgrade to iOS 5 at all. Only to iOS 6. Over the air updates can only be done when iOS 5 or higher is installed.
Even if you find a way to update to iOS 6 using another computer, you will not be able to sync with your work computer any more.
Side note. Syncing your personal information to a company owned machine may not be wise. If the phone is not company issued/owned, you really should be syncing it with your personal computer. -

I am unable to send text messages after the update. They just sit there in "sending" mode. Thank you.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
