ICal is freezing up - have tried everything - Help!
My iCal has been freezing up on my Mac for the past week. The functionality on my iPhone works fine though. I ran Console while starting iCal and here is the script I found: 8/27/12 3:55:41.410 PM iCal: Duplicate UID: u9u5o2tabp84aomgneppgl10ao@google.
I have already used a Duplicate Event Remover for iCal and ensured that none of my unused calendars are active. Still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Well the first game is over, the Mac is together and working again. Tryed every thing electronically that I could find to try, then my background in Aircraft Maint. came out. Tore that sucker apart! Wife just knew we'd be out looking for a new puter next week. Had to remove the disc drive and opened the drive up to remove the disc. Put it back together WITHOUT the drive installed and it worked fine. I'll be shopping for a external drive with mechanical backup! So thanks to those who answered you got me brave enough to tear it apart!

This is installing the latest verison of itunes, 10.5, and I get this message everytime I install. My PC is so messed up now from changing permissions that I'm looking for the quick and easy fix! I've tried everything that has to do with uninstalling and reinstalling but there's always folders that my computer won't let me delete so I can't ever completely get rid of itunes. I have also tried many things that have to do with regedit with no luck. PLEASE help!
The 'quick andeasy' are usually the most trouble with poor outcome and lost time.
Search with Google etc.

Some files need to be deleted manually.
Revo has been recommended. It does and can work around.
Apple's installers place files in non-standard locations on x64 which is a large part of the problem. But nothing that a normal install and person would need to changer ownership and special permissions.
I've also never in 6 yrs used any regedit but do run CCleaner (3.12) on regular basis.
Might be time to sit and spend a day, leave your system as is, and install on another partition or drive instead. If you want, use Windows Easy Transfer.

Normally the Apple tech note tells you where to look to delete.
Apple installers leave behind the old installer and cache, which can be a problem.
iTunes has changed where things go without picking up its own mess it created and left behind. -

Hello,
Try plugging it into your computer, and see if it will turn on. If not, bring it to the apple store to see if they can help, or help you buy a new one. -

I have just bought a MacBook but can't seem to sync my Contacts or Calendar to the Address Book or iCal via iTunes, I have tried everything including watching support videos and putting this into a search engine. Even icloud doesn't seem to be doing it.
If you are trying to sync via iCloud, make sure your MacBook is running OSX Lion 10.7.7, and that you have set up your iPhone as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ and you MacBook as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.htm (including turning On Contacts and Calendars as shown in step 3). If you're syncing via iCloud don't check to sync in iTunes too (on the Info tab in iTunes) or you may end up with duplicate data.

As soon as I plug my iphone4 (running 4.3.3) into my pc, it appears in the left hand column and the little wheel starts turning. Then it stops after a few seconds and itunes freezes. I have tried everything. Can anyone help. Thanks
Hi Patrick,
Yes, a very frusterating issue indeed. Someone else had mentioned a possible issue with real player, I tried getting rid of that and same issues. I even got completely rid of firefox for the moment. Guess what, problem still is persisting. I think this means it maybe something else altogether. I will go back to re-add firefox after I get this straightened out but now using Chrome for the moment.
What I've also found out is that the sound can be restarted when I unplug and replug in the 3.5mm speaker cable from the audio output jack on the back of the computer. Any ideas?
Thanks! -
Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP HELP!!
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
Regards

Hi Guys,
I am using the full width video widget on a site. The widget was working perfectly however I have just added additional content to the site and re-uploaded and now the video is not working! Please help I have tried everything and am freaking out as this web-site has been payed for by my client.
AlexMany thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

IPOD not being seen in ITunes...I have tried everything - please help!!
Okay, so I have tried everything listed on Apple's website to get my IPOD to be recognized in ITUNES. When I plug my IPOD into the USB port, the "do not disconnect" screen pops up. Nothing happens in ITUNES. Windows Vista pops up and says "Do you want me to scan and fix the IPOD F: drive?" Either selection doesn't do anything. I have tried the 5 R's from apple. I have tried to download every update available etc. I have tried to even go in and update the driver. However Vista is telling me that I have the most up to date version of everything. When my IPOD isn't connected to the PC, everything seems normal - except for the fact that there is no music or anything on it. But all menus are available and accessbile. Can anyone suggest what to do here? I am at a loss. Please help!! Thanks.
Yes, I'm having the same problem. If I connect my iPod to my laptop while iTunes is open, the 'Do not disconnect' sign appears, the battery does not charge, and my iPod doesn't appear either in iTunes or on my desktop. Since it doesn't appear in either of these places, I have to ignore the 'do not disconnect' sign and disconnect anyway. If I then reset my iPod, quite iTunes and reconnect iPod to laptop, everything's fine - iTunes opens, and recognizes the iPod. I guess this isn't the end of the world, since I can simply avoid ever connecting my iPod to my laptop while iTunes is open, but is this normal?

HELP!!! I have tried everything and Itunes still wont download...
I have tried everything and I still cannot get Itunes to download onto my computer. When I try to uninstall it I get the error message of The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter and alternate path to a folder containing the installation package "iTunes.msi" in the box below. So when I cancel out of it because nothing works its says, "The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it. So I have tried uninstalling everything and all but Itunes uninstalls from my programs. I have tried deleting it off my hard drive still nothing. I tried downloading those "free" windows installer clean up programs, yeah those are so not free. Can someone please help me??
The usual response from the computer after the download is that Bonjour64.msi cannot be found although it is on my computer.
Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any BonJour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try reinstalling iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.) -
Hello,
I need help! My itunes will not open in Windows Vista. I have tried everything suggested by the apple website. Even when I open itunes in safe mode, it still will not allow me to continue. I am assuming when it says something about Plug-ins that has something to do with the problem. Can anyone help me?Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.
