it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases. Do you see Final Cut Pro X listed?
If so, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete Final Cut Pro X. Then, go to the Mac App Store and download Final Cut Pro X for free.
If you don't see it in Purchases, see if it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 If it doesn't work, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
After that: go to Settings - iCloud - Storage and backup - turn off the iCloud backup
and backup with iTunes from now on

Or, if you prefer to keep backing up with iCloud, check out this article, it will help you understand how to manage the iCloud storage:

Are you behind a firewall or double NAT??
What is the device that is immediately plugged into the main modem or router? Has that one been able to update?
It is plugged in of course isn't it.. no nasty join wireless anywhere??
The best way to work around these sort of problems is to simplify the network.. Plug each device directly into the main router.. by ethernet. You can trigger the firmware upgrade by wireless but use ipad or iphone version of airport utility and see what happens.

I have a new Mac and I migrated mi old one to this. I can not open iTunes because a message stating "iTunes Library.itl" can not be opened because it was created in more recent version of iTunes. There is not a new version to download.

Go to iTunes > about iTunes. What version are you running? If necessary, hold down the option key while starting iTunes and create a new, test library so it will start.

I cannot open itunes. Getting error message: "the file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
What do I need to do so I dont lose all my loaded music, etc.?
Thanks

If you still have an issue you may have to see about using the iTunes version (application) included with Snow Leopard 10.6 from the installer or an another one if available online, and see if that will install.
Sometimes you may have uninstall the bits left in your system by the earlier (or later) iTunes installers; as they all leave a trace and these can stop a different version of iTunes from being installed.
Not sure if the following site/link will tell the method...
•Apple - Support - iTunes - install & update:

•Troubleshooting iTunes installation on Mac OS X:

Good luck & happy computing!
ps: i see you resolved this issue. it's magic!

I updated to itunes 11, uninstalled it according to directions, and re-installed itunes 10.7.021 for windows 64bit. Now Iget the message itunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by an earlier version of itunes

I updated my computer to Itune 11, did not like it, and uninstalled it exactly according to directions. I re-installed Itune10.7.021 for Windows 64bit, but now I keep getting the message "The file itunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. How can I resolve this problem?

zepel has it, but perhaps some more detail will help.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

I tried installing itunes but i keep on receiving the message "itunes library.itl" cannot be opened because it was created by a newer version of itunes. i tried to the troubleshooting guideline outlined in KB article TS5376 without success

If you've already installed the latest version then the message may be a sign of a corrupt library. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

Having trouble downloading itunes on my computer. i keep getting a error message that reads: apple sync notifier.exe- entry point not found.

Hello, can anyone help me out there? Im having trouble downloading itunes on my computer.
Ikeep getting a error message reading:
#1 applesyncnotifer.exe- entry point not found.
#2 the procedure entry point sqlite3-wal-checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library. sqlite3.d11.
#3 service 'apple mobile device' (apple mobile device)
failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Restart the programme all should be well
In case that your OS is (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Now paste it in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

Why do I keep getting the error message that my iPhone cannot connect to iTunes?

I have tried all the suggestions that were in the articles about this problem but continue to get the error message.

I have a similar experience with getting the message that my contacts have stopped. Here is my experience in resolving the issue.
1. Phone: Motorola RAZR MAXX HD 24 GB of 32 GB free.
2. OS; Android 4.4.2
3. Message "Unfortunately, contacts has stopped"
4. Possible cause: Contacts stops working when either Verizon Cloud or Backup Assistant try to synchronize with their respective online storage systems. Also, neither APP managed to properly identify all my contacts. Cloud only backed up 13 of over 600 contacts. Backup Assistant Plus only backup up 360 of over 600 contacts.
5. Resolution: I disabled both APPs after clearing their respective cache and data. Then I cleared the data and cache for Contacts. Assuming your have a Gmail account for your Android device, Google will repopulate your contacts from the web based email account. So, nothing is lost and no damage is done. This was my experience.
6. Lesson learned: On my phone, and perhaps others, the Cloud and Backup Assistant are corrupted, or have bugs, and produce errors which interfere with the operation of Contacts when they try to synchronize, even imperfectly. Clearing the data from Contacts, and disabling the two Verizon APPS, resulted in restoration of the Contacts function.
7. Verizon's response: Verizon technical support pronounced itself mystified by the information presented here. So far, after two days, they have not responded with either a diagnosis or a fix.
8. My Expectations: I don't really expect Verizon to do anything at this point. I do have working contacts, and they are preserved via my Gmail account, so I have a working solution. It just doesn't involve Verizon software.

I am suddenly getting an error messages that says "You cannot open the application "Firefox.app" because it is not supported on this architecture.

When I restarted my computer I suddenly cannot open Firefox

Firefox versions after 3.6 no longer run on the PPC processor. You can only update to the latest 3.6 release (3.6.23 at the moment)

Why do I keep getting an error message that reads "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."

Whenever I click on a link that opens a new tab using "about:tab", an error pops up. The error box is titled "Alert" and the message reads "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."
However, once I click OK, the page loads just fine. At first, I thought it might be one of my add-ons (Iuse a bunch), but it still occurs after restarting in Safe Mode. Any thoughts?
I can even create the problem without clicking on a link inside a page if I simply type about:tab in the address bar.
I am using Firefox 12.0

Wow! I actually solved this on my own. I didn't find any thread that helped, but after reading a few, I figured poking around in about.config would help... and it did!
Here is how I solved the problem:
# Typed '''about:config''' in address bar.
# When I got to the warning about voiding the warranty, clicked '''I'll be careful, I promise!'''
# I found the setting entitled '''browser.newtabl.url''' (use the '''Search:''' box).
# I double-clicked on the entry entitled '''browser.newtabl.url''' and deleted the info in the value portion.
# Clicked '''OK'''.
# Closed the tab.
# Restarted Firefox and problem was solved.
