I-tunes isn't opening/responding...........What is the deal?

As many of you on here, after downloading Itunes 6 the program refuses to open. I am not getting an error sign, it just refuses to open. I have Windows XP btw. I tried:
-Run
-MSconfig
-Etc, Etc........
Itunes then opened but would not connect to the music store and to be honest I didn't like the idea of altering some of the items using MSconfig.
I basically have two questions.....
1) what can I do to get my Itunes working properly without altering the make up of my computer?
2) Does apple have anything in mind to solve this problem, as it seems like quite a few of us are having it?
Any help would be more appreciated than you can imagine.
Thanks-
Ryan

hi Ryan!
we'd better check on the usual suspect first. are you running Norton Internet Security 2005? if so, try the "Lorraine" technique:

My itunes 11.0 won't open! What's the deal?

I upgraded my itunes to 11.0 and now it won't open..... what's the deal?

GOOD! Uninstall it, and stick with the previous version. 11 has MAJOR issues- losing songs, playlists, can't display duplicates, etc. This community board is exploding with issues. Keep what you have!!!

I opened a file on my desktop that I don't remember putting there. It turned out to be a keychain certificate from a client of ours. Does this mean that they were spying on me? What is the deal with that? Any ideas?

I opened a file on my desktop that I don't remember putting there. We use many photos and I thought it was a photo file I was looking for. It turned out to be a keychain certificate from a client of ours. Does this mean that they were spying on me? What is the deal with that? Any ideas?

Interesting tid bit. I created an AAC of the original file, deleted the original MP3 from my library and also deleted the Clean matched track from the icloud.
Result is that it matched with the explicit version of Mrs. Officer this time.
What I am curious about is which songs this is happening for. I've went thru a few batched of about 500 songs at a time and redownloaded in 256k for many tracks. Sadly we don't have people to bring this to our attention and I have so much music that it's impossible to go thru every song to make sure I am getting the right version.

Is your computer authorized with the same account that you use to buy the muisc in iTunes?
More info here: About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
Did you try to transfer your music by right clicking on your ipod in the device list and choosing "transfer purchases"?
Did you ever sync your ipod to your computer?

After updating my iphone 5s to 7.1 ... the keyboard is crashing and it takes too long to respond, what is the solution? if there any link from which we can download the original 7.1 firmware for A1533 Version?

Restoring the iPhone will reload its firmware.
Plug the iPhone into (the current version of) iTunes on your computer.
Let it sync. Then choose "Restore" from the iPhone's summary page in iTunes.

What is the deal with this thing?

My computer no longer recognizes my ipod mini, won't charge it, or anything. It isn't responding to anything. I have tried resetting it so many times. All it does is show the "Do not disconnect." screen, and the backlight turns on when I press a button on the click wheel. My computer does not acknowledge that the ipod is connected to it at all, so I just diconnected it. However, the screen still says the same thing! I cannot find anyway to get some help off the Apple site. There are e-mail addresses or anything, which is completely annoying. My ipod mini is 13 months old and cost way too much money for this to be happening. Is it lost for good? What is the deal with this thing? Seriously, please help.

First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
Still no joy, see these.

Thank you for your response.
After searching around for any pointers to my problem, the above fixes I listed were the things that came closest to maybe addressing the issue, that I was able to locate. But since none worked, and as you pointed out, it is now clear they will only help towards viewing sent images rather than helping with inserting any images in the body of the email, which is the problem I suddenly started facing today.
Coming to your suggestion, on opening the Write window, the Insert choice on the menu bar is indeed available. And I had already tried using that, by clicking on the '''Insert ----> Image''' option listed. That opens
up the "Image Properties" box but using that has not resolved the matter either. It results in an image box getting inserted within the email but without the actual image itself.
Plus, normally I am able to use the '''Paste''' function in the Edit menu or through right-click, but today the (Cut/Copy/Paste) functions have gone inactive, thereby disallowing me to use that to place an image within the email.

What's the deal with AmEx?

I'm currently rebuilding after a period of unemployment and lower income during the recession. From the second half of 2012 on, I have had no new chargeoffs/lates on any of my credit reports.
Within the past year, I opened new deposit accounts with Bank of America and Capital One (360), and following that, both banks have issued credit cards to me. The two cards from Cap One are unsecured and have small limits, and the limit on each card was increased after five months. The BoA card is the 99/500, and I expect I'll get the $99 back within a year or so.
With several years of clean history now, I tried applying for a simple AmEx card, and of course was abruptly turned down. I even escalated the application to their executive office, pointing to the clean history, and was rudely turned away.
While Cap One obviously caters to the whole credit spectrum, BoA is a prime lender, and both "big banks" have clearly made efforts to supply products that I need and to invest in me as a long-term customer.
AmEx, on the other hand, is a mystery. I don't need their prepaid products, as I already have deposit accounts, but a charge or credit card with them would be helpful, but they don't want anything to do with me. What's the deal? They're facing enough headwinds between the loss of the Costco account, the lawsuit earlier this year, and the poaching of affluent customers by the other issuers. And I know they're aware of it - just a few days ago I filled out an e-rewards survey that was clearly commissioned by AmEx, as it asked for perceptions of Amex compared to issuers including Chase, and whether I would consider each issuer when applying for a card.

I would feel differently if these were still with the original creditors, but when the OCs sold them to the junk debt buyers, their interest in them disappeared, and it's now a matter of how much money, if any, the JDBs should receive when they themselves acquired the accounts for a few pennies.
And I think it's a mistake to look at this with any greater sense of morality than the banks do. Their business is modeled on how much "y" they can get for "x", and when Mr. Jones applies for credit to fix his leaky roof and shelter his family, no one at the bank is thinking about the welfare of his children in deciding whether to give him a home equity loan. I'm just looking at it on the same level as they do: if I send $ to JDB Inc., what will I get in return?
Thus, my original question: what is the relative importance of 3 chargeoffs 4 years ago against a more recent period of clean history, or at what point (call it a score, if you will) are the chargeoffs not predictive?Actually, I have to say I don't really disgree with you on this. When it comes to paying collectors (JDBs), I look at it purely in terms of "whats in my best interest?" Any moral obligation, AFAIC, evaporates when the OC decides to sell my debt for pennies on the dollar - after that its simply a matter of whats best for me. Sooo... again I ask, are ANY of the OCs reporting the charge-offs with an unpaid balance? That makes a difference in how you should proceed, IMO. As for your question, you really do have to look at it from the perspective of the lender. Different lenders *do* have different standards regarding this - some put much more weight on recent history and will forgive past issues (like Capital One), while others put less weight on recent history.. AMEX is one that puts less. Both are business decisions and both are valid and work well for each company.

What's the deal with Final Cut Express HD and me?

A few months ago, I encountered a lot of problems when I was trying to capture some HD video using Final Cut Express H.D. I've set my camera (a JVC GR-HD1U) to the MPEG2 setting, and I changed the set up in Final Cut to Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60. The good news is that I was able to capture for about 15 seconds. Then the capture stops, and a message comes up telling me that I have reached the end of the tape. Only I haven't.
So.....what's the deal here?
Is there something that I am overlooking, or doing wrong? Or is it just not meant to be for me to capture HD Video?
If someone could let me know, I would appreciate it.
Thanks everyone.

Am I right in thinking this camera isn't compatible/on the supported list? Does it work with iMovie? Perhaps you could capture there and import into FCE?
I see in your earlier post Manson Root had captured from this camera successfully. Perhaps they will reply again.

What's the deal with the CC menubar panel?

What's the deal with the CC menubar panel? The tab to the apps are gone -- looks like it wants me to update the panel itself rather than list my installed apps. I've been on CC for about a month, is this common? Thankfully I can still open all apps normally, but the internet seems to think the "CC Way" is a horror show.
Do you guys have trouble after updating the updater? All this talk of running "the cleaner" (a mafia term?) and reinstalling everything with each version bump is kinda scary. It could be that people only post online when things go wrong, and 95% of people update just fine. But since I'm new I guess I'd want some reassurance before committing to a night of Cleaning and Reinstalling...
I'm one of those people who think app updates very 12 to 18 months was just fine (and stable). Would it be harmful to ignore updates for a few months? Lets see, I have a healing brush, smart objects, a blob tool, pretty good 3D in AE, ID seems to handle type pretty well… there's really no reason to update every month is there?

Has anyone had a normal non-cleaning install of this week's update?

What's the deal with Quicktime?

What's the deal with Quicktime? In the past, there was just plain Quicktime. Then it was separated into two different versions: Standard and Pro. I bought the Pro version for my eMac. Then, when I moved to my 24" iMac, Quicktime was made into just one version again, and the features were rolled into it. Now that I have my 27" iMac running Lion, I find that a bunch of the menu items are greyed out and have the word "Pro" next to them. Also, I'm finding that it can't open many standard files, such as .MOV files that run fine on my older Mac, because "a required codec is not available." What's going on?

There are two versions of QuickTime Player available for Snow Leopard and Lion systems. The QuickTime Player X included with those versions of Mac OS X have some of the features previously only available with a Pro key to unlock QuickTime Player 7.
QuickTime Player 7 is an optional installation on SL and Lion, and apparently you installed it or it carried over across an update. If you wish the Pro features activated, you need to enter in your Pro key just as you did previously (you will need a key for QuickTime 7; an older key will not work). Then the Pro features will be available again, though support for some old codecs is no longer available. For more information, see:

What's the deal with bluetooth mice ?

What's the deal with bluetooth mice ? I've never heard of any model yet that didn't come with loads of complain... (I've done my research) ... isn't there one that just works fine and that will for a few years like a standard mouse ?
I would really like one with my macbook, any recommendation, something portable, that matches well my hardware would be nice.
Or should I just wait until bluetooth mice technology works flawlessly ? What about you ?
Francis.

I've had a Macally BtMouseJr for a couple of years now, it's fairly basic but every time I've tried to replace it with a "better' one I've had to come back because of lock ups, losing the mouse altogether, slow response, random movements et al.
Therefore the BtMouseJr is the ONLY one I can actually recommend (I retract my prvious recommendation of the Sony vaio mouse - it's nice but it doesn't always work and eats batteries) wholeheartedly.

What is the deal with Firefox? I keep installing the new update, it restarts, and then it tells me I need to install the same update?

This is happening on my Mac, my husband's Mac at work, and his Apple laptop. What is the deal?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
*Firefox 37.0.2: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
*Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install or update Firefox.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
Open the Firefox disk image file and drag the Firefox program into the Applications folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but instead drag it out of the DMG folder.

What is the deal with the Zen Aurvana headphones?

Can anyone explain this to me? (Please note that I am a review addict, and look at reviews before buying anything so I don't make a regretful choice. One of the things that sealed my decision on the Zen was the 8.3 from CNET.)
I've been deciding to upgrade from the Zen's EP-480 set for a few weeks now, and it's a tossup between the Aurvana and the EP-630.
Problem is, everywhere seems to report that the Aurvana is very average. Looking at customer reviews on retail sites and media critics, they all barely rate the Aurvana above average. Looking in the same sources at the EP-630, it has a close to perfect score from various ones.
Now, here's what blows my mind. I stumble upon Creative's European site, and the reception for the Aurvana is better than the EP-630 set. Other countries seem to love the Aurvana more than the EP-630, while the US does not. See for yourself:
http://hu.europe.creative.com/produc...397&nav=awards
http://hu.europe.creative.com/produc...702&nav=awards
What's the deal here? I need help with my decision from fellow Creative fans. Has anyone owned both?

I use it quite a bit for zooming in and out (by dragging up and down) but you have to be careful you don't move left or right when doing this as it then becomes a bit unpredictable as you say...
If you just want to use the playhead for dragging left and right (and if you can't find a pref to turn it off) you'll just have to be careful to drag only in the horizontal axis and not up or down..
