  • Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account.  Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want.  How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID?

    Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account.  Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want.  How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID?  If so, where do I need to change his email address info, so that his calender and contacts remain his?  Thank you

    You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours.  If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
    You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for).  You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
    You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.

  • When I start iTunes I get the following message. "A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes (-42404)" I have installed the latest version of iTunes but still get this message. Can anyone help.

    Hello mustangcim243,
    iTunes has various components bundled with it that it requires for general usage. I advise that we completely remove iTunes and all of these related components, verify that they have been removed, then reinstall. To do so, please follow the steps in this article:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Note: it is important to remove the 7 components in order. Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, I recommend we reset the SC Info folder:
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
    (See Step 4: Remove the SC Info folder)
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Itunes 11 will not install on my Windows 7 computer because it cannot start the 'Apple Mobile Device' service, what can I do?

    itunes 11 will not install on my Windows 7 computer because it cannot start the 'Apple Mobile Device' service, what can I do?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Itunes helper was not installed correctly. Error 7 (windows error 14001) ?

    Upgraded to ITUNES 10 and received following error - Itunes helper was not installed correctly. Error 7 (windows error 14001) - have tried uninstalling all APPLE products, restarting etc and installing ITUNES and QUICKTIME separately yaddah yaddah - NO SUCCESS. Losing patience ?

  • Required Itunes component is not installed -42404

    My system is Windows 7 64bit.  After the iTunes update to 10.3, iTunes is now unusable, will not reconize my iphone. 
    Get the following messages
    Required iTunes component is not installed -42404
    Could not purchase required iTunes compoenet is not installed.
    I got a message that my IPhone was not reconnized also and that I needed to re-set to factory default which I did, but now I lost all the apps on the iphone and I can not reinstall iTunes without receiving these error messages.  No problems with Itunes until this new update. 
    I have followed the suggestions to completeley uninstall iTunes and all the components including QuickTIme and MobileME.   I have done this 3 times now. The last error message was regarding iTunes Helper.

  • Itunes library will not close down all the way

    My iTunes library will not close down all the way.  When I close the library I am unable to log back in or turn my computer off because itunes is still running although I x'd it out.

    You're right, you shouldn't have to do that.
    Well, you didn't say whether you've tried uninstalling & reinstalling itunes. Make sure it's installed with an admin user account. Then go into the WIndows Event Viewer and see if there are any error messages about any of the itunes processes in the installation package. That could give us a clue of what's going wrong.
    Another thing that could be causing the problem is the "apple push" part of itunes, APSDaemon.exe. Read wiclee's post here about it.

  • Help! Having a problem exporting - iBooks Author tells me iTunes Producer is not installed, but it is... How do I fix this???

    Hi,
    I have finished a book, go through the "publish" process, it starts the export, but at the end gives me a warning message that iTunes Producer is not installed on my Mac, but it is, window open, logged in and all.  The error message refers me to the iTunes page to download it, and that's that.  I can't import the iBook file into the Producer (guess its not the right type of file).
    I'm stuck!  Help!

  • TS1702 What to do when you get "iTunes library app not installed on iPhone; app could not be found"

    What to do when you get "iTunes library app not installed on iPhone; app could not be found". None of the Apple suggestions fix the problem. For example, with Animoto, one of the problem apps, I have removed it, reinstalled it, and still get the eoor message.

    Of course.
    First of all, this started when an external drive i was using died on me. I have no doubt that these apps indeed are off my system. I figure between the apps I've bought for myself and my kid, I have about 150 apps.
    Now. The issue.
    When I sync my iPad with iTunes on my desktop, it goes through normally until it gets to the apps. When that happens, it get an error box that reads "Some of the apps in your iTunes library were not installed on the iPad because one or more errors occurred. For a list of appps that could not be installed, click on the triangle below."
    Then I get a list of apps.
    (Added note to any iTunes developers out there: The titles of the apps in this list do not always match the titles of the apps in the App Store. For example, one was called "MuseumGame" on my iPad. It's called "Museum of Thieves" on the App Store. I started out with a list of 60 apps. It was a major pain to track them all down. It would be nice to have everything the same so I can use the App Store search more effectively.)
    Anyway, moving on....
    The error message stops my sync until I dismiss it. That, honestly, is what makes this whole thing annoying enough to seek out an answer. I can't let my iPad start syncing and walk out of the room. Yeah. I know. First World problems.
    Once I dismiss the error, the sync continues and all is well.
    I did the following to try to fix the problem. Mostly, I did a lot of searches:
    My list of purchased apps on my iPad both using the search box and by going to every page
    Searched the main App Store on my iPad using the search field. When that didn't work, I used wider searches and just scanned the page(s) for the little cloud icon that showed I had purchased the app.
    I got on my desktop iTunes and searched the apps from there (without a lot of hope, but trying to be complete)
    At that point, I came to the conclusion that a small number of the apps are no longer available on the App Store.
    Fine. I didn't want them anyway.
    I got into iTunes and went to the Apps page. None of the errant apps showed up there. I searched the iTunes help files. Nothing. I crossed my fingers, said a little prayer to the search engine gods, and tried Google. I found some things that sort of matched but they basically boiled down to "re-download the app from the App Store" or "Restore your iPad".
    So I spent a couple of hours restoring my iPad. I got the error message again. I hit Google again and came up with this thread. It was as close to my problem as I found.
    I think that brings us up to date.
    My fundamental problem is that I seem to have found a scenario where if you have to restore apps (because, perhaps, your external drive died) and some of the apps are no longer available for download, there is an error generated that can not be permanently dismissed.
    Did I miss anything important?
