I have just had my computer fixed because of viruses and now my itunes will not open. It keeps coming up with the message 'itunes has encountered a problem etc.'. Also my library, apps etc will not open. Any suggestions please!

Remove and re-install iTunes.  This has no affect on the media that is stored on the computer.
That being said, depending on what was done, it may also be necessary to restore the iTuneslibrary.itl file from the backup of the computer.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I want to buy a 2nd iPad for my wife. we both have kindles and I have the kindle app for my iPad.  are there any issues or concerns in adding a 2nd iPad to the iTunes account

    I want to buy a 2nd iPad for my wife.  we both have kindles and i have the kindle app for my iPad. are there any issues or concerns in adding a 2nd iPad with kindle app?

    You can sync as many iDevices as you own to a single iTunes library if you want to do so. If you manage the content manually, you can pick and choose the apps, music, videos and so on that you want on each device. One iTunes account means using the same Apple ID to purchase and update all of your apps. You can share apps on both devices because once you buy an app, you can download it to all of your iDevices - as many times as you want - using the same Apple ID and iTunes account. If you decide to do this, you have to sync to the same computer each time in order to keep all of your shared apps in the one iTunes library.
    The Kindle App content is not synced to the iTunes library. It is controlled by your Kindle account. I believe that you can go into your Kindle account and transfer your purchase to your other devices - iPad, computer, etc. You can both have the Kindle app on your iPads and share the content as far as I know, so I see no conflict there. However, while I do have the Kindle app and an account, I do not use it very often.
    If you want to share the one iTunes account, there should be no problems with a second iPad. I sync my iPad, my iPod Touch and my wife's iPod Touch to my MacBook using the same iTunes library and we have different content on all three devices. My daughter uses my iTunes account for her iPod Touch and syncs to her own MacBook and her own iTunes library.
    Four devices using one iTunes account syncing to two different iTunes libraries.

  • I forgot to back up my ipod and when I updated it last night it reseted all my music and apps to factory default. Is there anyway I can regain all my purchased music and apps even though I haven't backed anything up?

    Last night I decided that I would go and update my ipod for the first time to the latest version of the system. I completely forgot that I still had not backed up any of my purchased music and apps and of course when the update was finished, I found that all my music and apps had been erased. Is there anyway I can get my music and apps back.

  • I can not open the messages app on my daughters iphone 3gs

    every time you try and open the message app the screen goes blank, white for around 10 seconds then revirts to the home screen, is there anywhay of fixing this, she has 2 messages recieved but can not read them or open them.
    Thanks.

    Close out of the message app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then check the message app again.
    Hopefully you haven't restored yet.

  • I can't download music and apps on my ipad mini

    Why I can't download music and apps with my apple ID on my ipad mini, which I got 3 days ago

    1. Make sure software is up to date
    2. Make sure FaceTime is enabled; Settings>FaceTime
    3. Make sure Date and Time is correctly set; Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
    4. Make sure Push Notification is enabled
    5. Make sure phone number or email address is correct
    6. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) until you see the Apple Logo

  • Music and Apps Purchased on iPad, sync to computer???

    Hey, I'm very new and don't understand how this works. I've downloaded a few albums and a bunch of apps directly through WiFi on my Ipad. If I sync to my computer, will all of the apps and music be gone on the Ipad? I just want to make sure there's a backup... thanks! I've also downloaded one album to iTunes on my PC. Can I put that album on my ipad?
    Message was edited by: Mickey Rooney

    Ok, because I synced it originally on my laptop and then I took it to work and authorized that computer also. After that, I ripped all of my cd's and transfered it to my ipad. After that I backed up the library on my work computer and transferred it to my laptop. I am trying to use my laptop as the main device... ok, so I'll manually transfer all of the purchases and then sync. Wish me luck!

  • My facebook icons won't show in messenger app for my ipad when my screen is vertical but will in horizontal how do I solve this please

    HI,
    Did you ever figure out how to get them back? The same thing happened to me yesterday. I was able to open the file in VLC media player (you can download this app), but the file had been corrupted. It was only the last clip I had recorded, all the others were lost. Even the clip that will play is messed up

  • Itunes is now "my music" and apps for tv news have no sound, is my itunes out of date? My last sync updated my os to 5

    I sync'd to upgrade and now iitunes is " my music" and I can not turn on any sound when playing video from tv network apps.  I tried twice to re-install the app without sucess.  Some panels recommend tapping the " mute" button on itunes, but my ipad no longer has that option (all music formerly in itunes is still there, but re-arranged in different format). My sync is to a laptop running windows xp, but my video is apples version of player.

    You play your music in the Music App in iOS 5. See if this helps with the app sounds.
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • HT2178 I do not have sound on my computer.  It was fine last night but when my husband turned it on this morning, there was now sound.  Also My iPhoto shuts down when I try to run a slide show.  I have just had my computer for 2 1/2 weeks.

    I had sound on my computer last night but when turning on this morning there was no sound.  It is not muted.  Any suggestions.  Also, when I try to run an event in IPhoto as a slide show, it shuts down.

    Just to clarify, does iPhoto unexpectedly quit or does your computer shut down? For the sound problem, try here:
