Is iTunes corrupted by the latest update?
I updated iTunes to the latest version and now my computer does not do a restart unless I fiddle around with the internal and external CD/DVD drives on my computer. Each time I run Repair Disk Permissions it gives me a long list of iTunes related problems that are supposed to have been repaired. When I do a second and third Repair Disk Permissions, the same problems occur. I am now afraid to restsrt my computer because of this. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
An e-mail account cannot be "infected." I'm guessing that you are seeing that it is sending out e-mail containing malware of some kind... if that's the case, that just means that either someone is faking your address in e-mail being sent from somewhere else, or your e-mail address has been hacked and is being used to send malware spam. Either way, it would be prudent to change the password on your Yahoo address, as well as any other online accounts that might be associated with, or that use the same password as, that Yahoo address.
As to the question regarding Apple IDs... all your app purchases are linked to your Apple ID, so if you abandon your current Apple ID, you lose all those apps. You would have to re-purchase them on the new Apple ID. So this isn't really a good solution, and isn't necessary in this case.

I am sure this has been addressed, but I will ask again, and then start sifting through prior posts.
I have Windows 7, AirPort Express (First Generation), and the latest Itunes (11, I believe). All updates are current on the both the Itunes and AirPort Express. All of a sudden today, when wanting to play music off of Itunes (it does show that I have both outlets checked and in blue [my computer & airport]) after about a minute it displays a statement saying "The Network Connection Timed Out". And then finally plays on my computer. This just started today. It has always worked, and now, not sure what to do. I have unplugged and plugged back both the airport express and my router.
Any help would be so much appreciated. This is truly why I hesitate to get the newest version of Itunes. There always seems to be an issue. Anyway...HELP!
DavidA bizarre update.
Decided to use the XP VM to handle the iPhone and it was downloading the latest update when it failed.
At that point Windows 7 iTunes popped up to say it had found an iPhone in recovery mode. I let it try a restore which also failed (VM couldn't complete the restore either).
Plugged the iPhone back in to my old PC to complete recovery and restore and then plugged it back in to the Windows 7 PC - which now can't see the iPhone!!
So it detected it when in recovery mode but not when it was functioning normally.
Are older versions of iTunes available to allow the backout of 10.4 which just seems so flaky on 64 bit Windows 7? -

I can't import cd to mac itunes since the latest update occured
I am unable to import CD's into itub=nes since the latest itunes update. Anyone else having this problem?
Oh, I'm sure you'll find others who have the same problem. With millions of iTunes users you always will. The question is, will they have an answer or will it just be a "Me too!"?
I assume you mean the latest update to iTunes and not the latest update to other software.
Have you restarted your computer? Did you repair permissions with Disk Utility before and after the update? Does the CD appear in iTunes? What exact error messages are you seeing? -

Check your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.

I was trying to do the latest update on my desktop for my Itunes. I got MSVCR80.dll is missing. I saw a post about deleting all the apple itunes programs, restarting and reinstalling. I tried that. As it was installing a message came up about "Service'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start systems services. I did a retry, got the same message, then hit ignore. It went on. Then a message popped up saying "Itunes not installed correctly" Error 7 (Windows error 126)
Now my Itunes program will not open at all. What gives? This is very frustrating and I am not very computer literate to begin with.Hi Iss9243,

Is there a bug with the latest update to iTunes because I am unable to install it, I get constant error messages if I try to open it after installing
Hey there Mambo822,
It sounds like you are unable to open iTunes after installing a recent update. I would recommend the troubleshooting in the following article:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
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.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

My Itunes will not start after the latest update. I keeo getting error message tEventType : InPageError P1 : c000009c P2 : 00000003 . I have tried to reinstall but no joy. Any advise?
'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -
Hello everybody, Im trying to update my ITunes on my MAC (laptop) to the newer version so I can then be able to update the latest updates for my Iphone-3G. I don’t require a complete reinstall just need to be able to update my itunes.
What I have tried so far is I had my MAC search for update’s and it said that I should update to (ITunes version 10 . 6 . 3 ) So I asked it to do the update but after 2hrs of waiting for it to download/update it then puts up a message saying the following- (In order to continue installation, please close the following application: ITunes).
When I tried to do this another message comes up that says- (The update ITunes can’t be installed. The following install step failed: run preupgrade script for Apple mobile device support. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)
I have also tried to run the update while having closed ITunes before I even start the update but the same problem happens after waiting about 2hrs.
Some one that had the same problem said this might be happening in the older operating systems. But that does not make sense because surely Apple want customers who own a MAC and i-phone to still buy from iTunes.
My MAC is about 4-5years old. I have a i-phone.3G,
Can anybody help me please and Thank you?Download iTunes using the tab at the top of this page. Then run the update with iTunes closed.

On my ipod touch, i can't seem to get the imessage app.. I have updated my itunes and even restored the ipod to factory settings with the latest update. Maybe the ipod is too old? Is that even a thing? Is there another app I can download to have access to my contacts with imessage?
That comes with iOS 5 (Settings>General>About>Version) and only the 3G abd later iPods can go to iOS 5 or later

Why is my iPod not syncing to iTunes when i have the latest update?
Seems, iTunes can't read your backup anymore. Copy the backup folder to a safe place before you delete the latest backup from the list in iTunes/Preferences/Devices
The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
After you deleted the backup from the list, try again to sync.
