I tunes 8 update

I did an updrade to the newer 8.version for itunes. I don't care for it, it busted up my library by catagory and tries to put album covers on it. I tried to do a restore on my computer to go back to the older version. Didn't work. It appears I am stuck with it. Any ideas? I also don't see no reason for this genius function.
I don't want to watch TV on it either, but just want my music library on it. I am very afraid to hook up my ipod to it, as I am scared it will use up my memory for album pictures, or blank pictures, mess up the shuffle function by different organizing by genres, etc., or will it leave my current format alone from the previous download version. Thanks for any help kind people!

If you want to make the library look the way it used to, use the menu View > As List.
Like you, I do not have interest in the Genius function, but you can use the "Hide Sidebar" option and it will get out of your face.
The options for Syncing your iPod are the same as they always were, so no worries there.

    Dear Windows support personel,
         As part of my message reads above; I keep getting an i-tunes update message and when I click on the OK to download it, I get an error message saying there was a problem and I need to go to Tools>manual download.  Well, I don't know how to do that even though I gave it my best try. I went to the support sight and it had the following message;
    1. Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order. Then, restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or  only uninstalling some of these components, may have unintended affects.
    If you encounter an error while uninstalling, try repairing the affected component:
    I don't know if I should do that since I'm not PC savey. Could you help me by doing the work on my pc for me? I'd be most apprieciative if you'd help me in this manner.

  • Has anyone had issues with the latest i-tunes update 11.1.4 on Windows Vista

    I downloaded the update on 24th Jan, and when I tried to open i-tunes after that it failed to start and the message was MSVCR80.dll and the window suggested that I remove and re-install i-tunes.
    I did this and then my CD/DVD drive was not recognised. I then decided to go for a system restore prior to the update. When I did this i-tunes worked again but a window opens every 30seconds saying 'Mobile device helper is not working'  At one point I had 116 windows open. Has anyone else had this problem or can offer any advice please? I have an i-pod classic and my system is windows vista which is approx 8yrs old. I have never had any problem with i-tunes updates before.

    Try using these directions on this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926 or http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    This resolved my issue with the new update on Vista.

    Hello there, tulchan.
    The following Knowledge Base article addresses the very issue you're describing:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • 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.

    Search Google for "iphone 3g ipsw" (does not matter which one in your case, just need to restore your phone, then can do whatever).  Open iTunes with your phone connected.  Shift click on "Restore" (Apple click for Mac) and choose the IPSW file you downloaded.  That is called a manual restore.  Should help you out.

    What do yo mean install?
    If you mean that your iPod touch (lates is the 5G)does not appear in iTunes then:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    paying special attention to item #5
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • TS1436 Since the last I-tunes update I can't create new playlists or burn cd'sfor my car

    Since the last i-tunes update I have lost the ability to create new playlists as well the option to burn a new cd. I ued to be able to click "File" and go from there. The file option is gone since the new update.

    How can I test the other display theory? I didn't connect any new monitor (I do use 2) but I occasionally use stuff like remote desktop tools.
    I'll try and update the display drivers (even tho I updated them recently).
    P.S.: opening it on the other monitor worked. What the heck. Any way I can make it work on both monitors?
    I'll be making more tests in the meanwhile.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • When are I-Tunes updates legitimate and how can I tell?

    When are I-Tunes updates legit and how can I tell?

    I have no idea what you're ranting and rambling about. Your "simple question", if you're referring to the one in this thread, makes little sense other than how I addressed it. If my answer didn't cover your question, post back and clarify what it is you're asking. Don't just come back and post a rant; it's insulting (and the "human" crack doubly so) to all those here, who are just fellow users trying to help out other users and who don't owe you one second of their time.
    If you want tech support directly from Apple, you call them; it's that simple. Contact information is linked from the bottom of every Apple web page, including this one.
    Geez; the old saying that "no good deed goes unpunished" continues to get proven true every day.
