I tunes 7.5 update and my existing library vanishes

Just updated i tunes software to 7.5 and my entire i tunes library has gone missing. However, another account users library is still there. Any clues what to do? My itunes opens up ok but there is none of my music collection.

I had the same issue and found I could get back to it by removing Quicktime and re-installing 7.2 on the library machine.... still leaves othe issue.

New computer, iTunes 7.0.2 and my existing library

I was running a old Dell Inspiron 8200 w/ iTunes and a 3G iPod. The mother board fizzled out. Luckily I kept my library on a much newer 100gb external drive. I have just received my new Dell Inspiron E1705. I would like to get everything working again together as a happy unit. I have downloaded the new version of iTunes and it seems to work. I have not tried synching my iPod to the new iTunes yet. Is there anything that should be done prior to hooking everything up?
The external drive w/ my library shows up in Exploerer but not in iTunes. When I moved the library to the external drive originally I recall having to re-point iTunes to the library but I can't find the article that provided instructions to do this. Can anyone provide some guidance?
Thanks, iralvalle

If you want to have your library play through iTunes but stay on the external HD, Itunes preferences>advanced>general tab> you should see "iTunes music folder location"

You can log out of the currently logged in account by taping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and you can then log back in.
If you updated your existing account with a new email address then that shoud 'refresh' it on it
If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can redownload its content and download updates to its apps. You should be able to update an account's email address via this page : http://appleid.apple.com

After AVG PC Tune up, software update message for security and stability update is available FireFox 3.6.18. Should I Update?

My Dell laptop (Operating on Windows XP) was hit with multiple viruses - I could not open Mozilla Firefox or any other applications for that matter. After much time and many attempts, I was finally able to install and run an AVG Scan and then an AVG PC Tune up. 4,559 problems found and repaired. After the repairs, I received the following message:
"Software Update - A security and stability update for Firefox is available: Firefox 3.6.18 - It is strongly recommended that you apply this update for Firefox as soon as possible. - an underlined link reading, "View more information about this update" and then 2 choices - "Ask Later" or "Update Firefox." Since part of the problem was with Firefox and some error messages pointed to that, I'm hesitant to click on any of the three options above. Can you help me to get past this error message, please. I am sending this from my home computer. Thank you. Diane

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

I just bought a (used) Iphone 3gs for wife and it had angry birds and $89 Navigation on it (I paid extra for it). Once updated and logged into my I-tunes it no longer works? How can I make those apps work?

Apple doesn't have anything to do with this other than enforcing the DRM protection. The developers of this content expect to be paid if someone wants to use their content. When you purchase content in the app store, you purchase a license to use the content. This license does not permit you or anyone else to resell or give this content away. The individual you purchased the phone from simply does not have the right to sell or give away any purchased content on the phone. You were deceived.

Yes you can except for BIOS update. Rest if you like, you could confirm if the version and date of the driver notified is that which is given in your HP support page.
You can follow the suggestions given in your other thread: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/HP-Support-Assistant-gt-HP-Upda...

PC: i-tunes won't launch, update and restore greyed out - updater freezes

Hi - Please excuse the system info below - that refers to my laptop but our sons shuffle ismarried to our PC.
I found my son's shuffle sitting on the hall dresser today and he informed me that it has not been working for some time. He's 8 years old but he's only had the shuffle since Christmas - I'm inclined to think he really hasn't been able to use it much.
First signs of a problem were flashing green and orange lights - no songs I guess. Battery shows steady green.
Downloaded and installed latest i-tunes update and i-pod updater. When the i-pod is connected to our PC (running XP) the front status light and the back battery lights both blink orange. Unfortunately, we do not have any 2.0 usb connections on the Dell but we've been able to successfully connect our other son's shuffle to the back port.
When the shuffle is connected i-tunes will not launch. If I launch i-tunes and then connect the shuffle, i-tunes does not recognize the i-pod.
With the updater lauched and then connecting the i-pod the updater freezes at 'initializing' and both update and restore buttons are greyed out.
I have reset the i-pod many times and browsed the support discussions and articles - it seems I may need to remove the updater but I have not found instructions for the process appropriate to a PC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated - even if its just to say that we should bring it in for service. UGH - but where is the darned receipt?

Hey mmlise - glad to hear I'm not alone on this...
By the way - I uninstalled and reinstalled both i-tunes and i-pod updater as per Apple instructions for PC. At least this time the updater informed me as to what it updates but it is not even initializing now - it just keeps telling me to "plug in an i-pod to update it".
i-tunes still will not launch until I remove the shuffle from the usb.
I know that the usb is working (tried several other ports anyway) since windows pops up with a balloon to say that the device could perform faster on a 2.0 usb...
I've been out of the loop for awhile now on the boards - is this some sort of update bug?
Please help...

I tunes update and 80gb reset

After doing the i tunes update about a week ago, and having it make me re-boot ( or whatever you call it ) my I pod, I then had to re-everything in my library. After re-syncing, I got several error messages that say that the following songs could be imported. I don't know why, they all worked before. I also get a message that says I have movies that are not in the proper format to play on my I ppod. These movies all worked before, and they work in I tunes, but they won't go on my I pod.
Makes me not want to do the updates any more.

I tried uninstalling itunes but still got he MSVCR80.dll error on reboot. The Apple Mobile Service would not start due to MSVCR80.dll missing, and it would not uninstall either. You got just to the end of the uninstallation and it just rolled back to the start! I nearly threw the PC out the window!
The only solution I found was to restore to before the itunes update, and even then it said some files were missing. I reinstalled from a itunes backup that is automatically saved in C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer\Installer Cache\iTunes 11.1.3.8 and I just ran the iTunes 11.1.3.8.msi file and it successfully reinstalled iTunes. Yay. I'm sure most people will have this previous version in that folder. Please note I tried to install it before the restore and it did nothing and wouldn't install due to the Apple mobile service not being started and it wouldn't start. So restore then reinstall if required was the only thing that worked.
To restore in windows just press the start button and type system restore into the text box. It will only restore programs and won't effect your documents etc. If the restore says itunes, pick the one before it!
I'm really disappointed with Apple. Why haven't they pulled the update with so many people having issues? Not one post from them to say they are working on the issue, and their support pages suck. There is no way to contact a human without jumping through about 10 pages of guff and then you have to phone them only. No online support or contact forum.
I'll be waiting the next version to install an update and then I will be checking here for issues first from now on.

RealPlayer can cause conflicts with Flash Player because it tries to assign EVERY TYPE of video or audio file to itself by default. I haven't used RealPlayer in years for that reason. It's an unnecessary program anymore. There are apps loike VLC media player that cna do EVERYTHING it does without conflicting with other apps like Flash Player.
With WIndows 8, Microsoft began embedding FlashPlayer themselves into Internet Explorer. Because of that, you cannot download and install it from here. You cannot uninstall it from Internet Explorer without removing a specific Windows Update first. And you cannot update it via this website. ONLY through Windows Update can Flash Player for Internet Explorer be updated.
That said, you probably DON'T have a virus that's causing the problems with Flash Player and Internet Explorer. Many, many websites are not "recognizing" the browser.
This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released IE11 The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player.
So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Hi Demo, thank you for your suggestions.
I've tried updating in the following conditions:
1. "Over The Air" at one location;
2. On a Windows computer running the latest version of iTunes at the same location;
3. On Mavericks (10.9.4) running the latest version of iTunes (11.4 (18)) at another location;
4. On Mavericks, latest iTunes over a VPN with a server location in US;
5. On Mavericks, using a 3G connection shared from an iPhone;
6. On Yosemite developer preview with a previous version of iTunes at the same location.
I got the same results in most cases except for an occasional error with code 9; I'll try again in other conditions.
Interestingly enough, I've successfully updated my devices to iOS 7.1.2 and to iOS8 GM without any issues at the same location but, of course, no two conditions are exactly the same

HT5958 Existing projects will not update and are not available for Final Cut Pro 10.1.1?

I have updated to Final Cut 10.1.1 but existing projects from previous version will not update and are not available. Have tried to re-install Final Cut as well as bring the projects to another computer which has the update, but they still will not update. Has anyone else encountered this problem and is there anyone who can assist?

In the Finder take a look at the path where your old projects and events are stored. They should be in Final Cut Projects and Final Cut Events folders respectively. Those folders need to be in Users/user/Movies on the boot drive and/or at the root level of other drives for FCPX to see them.
If that's indeed the case, then you should be able to get them updated ny using the Update Projects and Events command form the File menu and then clicking on Locate.
