  • Itunes stopping working even after reinstall - help please

    I have not been able to access / watch anything stored on my iTunes on my laptop. every time I click on it I get the following message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.
    Can anyone help?  I've tried the QTMovieWin.dll advice but its still not working?
    Cheers

    Hi Ellenred,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have already done some great troubleshooting. Did you remove not only iTunes but all of its components in Windows as well when you reinstalled? When you remove and reinstall iTunes, all components must be removed in order to ensure it works properly when reinstalled. If you have already done this, please let me know. If you need to go through this process please use the information provided in the articles below.
    I am not sure what version of Windows you have so I will include articles for all versions starting with XP and up.

  • Preview is STILL frozen even after force quitting, rebooting and reopening. Help?!? I need to see my files!

    Not sure what I did, but Preview continues to stay frozen even after force quitting, rebooting and reopening. It seems like it is trying to open all 720 pdf documents I have on my internal memory. That's my best guess... I really don't know what happened. I've tried clicking the 'close windows when closing application' option under general settings and every other thing I've seen listed on help sites... nothing is working. PLEASE HELP?!?

    Back up all data. Quit Preview if it's running.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following items, if they exist:
    Containers/com.apple.Preview
    Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Preview.SandboxedPersistentURLs.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Saved Application State/com.apple.Preview.savedState
    Log out and log back in. Launch the application and test.

  • Hi, my iphone 4s shuts down randomly, Apple told me the phone is fine, I did a 2nd restore, deactivated iCloud, and no the frequency of shutting down is even more, any help please ?

    Hi, my iphone 4s ios 6.0.1 shuts down randomly, Apple told me the phone & battery are fine as it holds a charge, I did a 2nd restore, deactivated iCloud, and now the frequency of shutting down is even more, any help please ?

    It's almost impossible to say whether it's the battery or something else.  If you're running 6.0.1 and you've done a restore and set it up as new, there are no other software updates to try.
    If there's no Apple Store near you, contact Apple Care. If  you can't wait for a replacement phone, you may be able to get an express replacement (they ship you the replacement before you ship them yours, but they will put a hold on your credit card until yours is in their hands).

  • Camera on 5s is frozen even after reset any ideas? Thx

    My camera is frozen on my iPhone 5s even after resetting...any ideas?  Thx

    That is NOT unfreezing it for me. It returns to home page now after about thirty seconds of total freeze (worsened from last night).
    And now some really strange things are adding to it, like when waking and sliding to unlock, the tab is sticking for several seconds to the right before opening home page. Nobody seems to know whether apps are saved in sync for easy load following a restore. (??)
    Edit to add: when I try the hard reset, it simply prompts whether I want to shut down, so I guess yes, it does finally help to exit the frozen shutter, though as I said, it releases after about thirty seconds.
    One more edit: I turned my iphone off and restarted it to find, knock on wood, that the camera's working now. Will see where it goes from here.

  • AirPlay button not appearing even after reboot

    I recently updated my iPhone 3Gs 32GB to iOS 4.2.1 and found no AirPlay button. I read a thread about rebooting your iPhone once, but that didn't fix the problem either. Even after rebooting the device, I still can't see any AirPlay button. Any help?

    I have the same probelm and even thought the botton on
    any suggestions ?

  • Constant rebooting, help please!

    Constant rebooting, help please!
    Since suddenly yesterday, my computer reboots itself always
    during the Windows XP start-up, right before it should
    display "Welcome" (Choose user profile) screen. This started
    yesterday when I was just surfing the net and listening to
    some mp3s, I hadn't installed anything new for a while.
    Now I can't get the system running even in safe mode, nor does
    System restore help. After the progress bar of Windows XP
    Home Edition, the machine just beeps and reboots.
    There seems to be no heat problem (specs below), because I
    can get to the bios settings by pressing Del, and I can
    browse them as long as I want.
    I am pretty sure that there are no viruses, my McAfee
    updates itself very often. I have a ZoneAlarm firewall to
    protect agains hacking.
    I've had some reboots earlier, maybe twice a week. This
    began after I changed my processor to AMD Athlon XP 3000+.  
    But now something made my setup completely unstable.
    I know I don't have the latest bios drivers, the old ones
    did not work (had to use System Restore to get the PC
    running after installing them, but I didn't have a chance to
    install the latest ones before this catastrophe happened).
    Should I do a repair install of WinXP using the install cd?
    What should I do, and what might be causing the problem? Any
    help is greatly appreciated. Specs are below:
    CPU:AMD Athlon XP 3000+
    MOBO: KT4V
    OS: WinXP Home
    GC: ATI Radeon 9600
    HD: Hitachi 120 Gb

    Hello.
    You motherboard does not support an XP3000+ unless you have BIOS 1.8.
    Do you have any BIOS updates? I recommend the latest one.
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=362&kind=1

    "I know I don't have the latest bios drivers, the old ones

    running after installing them, but I didn't have a chance to

    ====================================
    You mean CHIPSET drivers, VIA 4in1? BIOS is not part of OS  
    The AMD XP3000+ CPU that you have, is it the 333Mhz FSB version or the 400Mhz FSB version?
    You board does not support the 400Mhz FSB version.
    You RAM, are they the same make and model
    Are they both PC2700 or PC3200?
    Have you tried 1 stick at a time?

    The best thing to do with all ipad's is try ro set it back to factory setting, go into itunes, open the screen that displays your ipad and press, reset r factory settings or something like that.
    Remember to make a backup first! Otherwise you will lose all your files.

    cutwright 93,
    I have a 4s, and I've had that problem, too. I've tried every method mentioned on the boards. If Ellips's suggestion didn't work, try this, and please let me know if it worked:
    (I did the following while the phone was connected to my pc...if that makes a difference.)
    1. On the phone, go to Music.
    2. Click "More."
    3. Click "Shared."
    4. My phone lists "iPhone" and my iTunes Libary. Try clicking the name of your music library.
    5. Wait until the circle makes its loop.
    The synch still failed to complete, but all of my music was on my iPhone, again. Whew.
