ITunes 6 installed - Missing big chunk of library -HELP!

I have been operating on iTunes 6 since July 05 as I had such horror issues trying to update to iTunes 6. I finally bit the bullet and just installed iTunes 6 so I could download episodes of 24.
Well, all appeared to go well, exept when iTunes 6 opened up, I am now missing a good chunk of my library including specific music playlists and an audiobook I downloaded a few weeks ago. I'm also missing photos. All of these were functional when I was using iTunes 4.8.
Please advise as to how I may find my missing music, playlists, photos and audiobook. I'd hate to have to reload the audiobook, as that was a time consuming effort.

Hi TP2GO!!!
Thanks for your reply!! You mention that this problem is being caused due to the fact that my external HD is not available at start up. But the driver is always available, since it is always hooked up to my iMac at all times. I've noticed, though, that iTunes starts up at login and maybe system is running it before it runs my external HD (if I follow your logic), possibly causing iTunes to set the iTunes library back to default since it cannot find the external driver where the new library should rest. So, my new question is: how do I disable iTunes from running at start up to try and see if this is what's causing my problem?
Thanks very much indeed for your input!!!!

Itunes installing missing MSVR dll and error 7

Hi .
.Just as others are having problems I downloaded the upgrade for Itunes now have a error 7 message and a MSVR80.dll missing- I unistalled and re-installed . Fixed Net 4 - no luck - did all that was said on Apple support - did the "repair " program - no help
Is there a fix - ? Does Apple monitor this site - I last my Itunes lib on my I pad - which is not connected I use Windows Vista
Any help out there

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

After Changing Itunes Store Missing Applications .. Please help !

Dears,
I have a wearied situation here (Which Apple apple genius and support people were not able to help at) summarized as below !
I bought an Iphone 5s 32G from Saudi.
My apple ID was assigned to the Saudi store.
I downloaded some (free) applications and I've purchased some other.
I have moved to the US, so I changed the store from the Saudi one to the US one.
I Factory rest my Iphone.
I logged-in with my Apple ID (newly assigned to the US store).
went to the Update/purchased section to find out that all my applications (Free and Paid) disappeared.
Apple support people informed me that this is related to the different in countries, so i am OK losing my paid application.
I downloaded my free applications again ( WhatsApp, Shamzam .... ect.) HOWEVER, when i go to the Updated/ Purchased section the surprised is (can not find the installed applications).
This happens only to the application i have downloaded before when my ID was assigned to the Saudi store, however the (first time) downloaded application it does appear in the Updated/ Purchased section.
Would you please advice if you have an idea how o solve this issue, and PLEASE do not tell me to back it up with iTunes ( we are in the iCloud Ear and i think Apple is was smarter than this manual way) and do not tell me to have two accounts.
Thank You my good friends.

As well as being tied to the account that downloaded it, content is tied to the country that it was downloaded in - you will need to be back in Saudi Arabia with a Saudi billing address on your account for you to potentially be able to redownload any apps that you downloaded whilst in Saudi Arabia.
And yes, you should be copying all of your downloads to your computer's iTunes library, you are only guaranteed one download of any item from the store - any of the apps (or music, films etc) that you have downloaded since being in the USA could be removed by the rights-holder at any time (and audiobooks and ringtones are one-time only downloads), in which case you wouldn't be able to redownload them.

Firefox 15.0.1 not recognizing Adobe Flash Plugin 11.4.402.265 - I have unistalled, reinstalled and still "install missing plugin" numerous sites. Help.

Adobe website check page asking for missing plugin after installing into Windows 7. I have used Adobe uninstallers and repeated the whole process several times. Firefox has not accepted/taken the plugin at all. Only help appears for older Adobe Flash.

I've been trying to find a solution to the same problem for several hours now. I restarted my computer this morning, as it was running a bit slugglish. The restart seemed to initiate both a Firefox update and a Flash update to the latest versions. I've uninstalled Flash several times with the Flash uninstaller. I've even down-graded to 10.3. Same result. Firefox simply isn't recognizing the install. Whether it's 10.3 or the latest 11.4, it doesn't exist in the Add-ons manager. I've installed the latest real Player as well, in case it had something to do with the issue. No apparent connection.
Any ideas?

ITunes install when old HD with library and media is installed as 2nd local HD on new computer

Hello support community:
My (Windows 7) laptop died unexpectedly. I didn't have a chance to consolidate my itunes library, and my files are not all in the itunes folder.
The replacement (Windows 7) laptop has space for a second hard drive, so I installed the hard drive from the dead laptop, with all my music files and itunes library. All my old data is now on my new Local Disc E. Windows is installed on C. I could copy all my music to C, but will probably leave E installed for the life of this laptop anyway.
Is it possible to move my itunes library data, such as playlists, play counts and star ratings, to the new itunes installation?
Will iTunes library search for the media files on the same drive where the library folder is located (E:folder\subfolder) or at the path where it was previosly located (C:\folder\subfolder)
Thanks for any advice!

If you still have the old computer, you should be able to connect the iPad, run iTunes and restore from a backup from a previous sync. Now that you have it updated, you will not need to do that again.

Hi emeldafromaz,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would recommend trying a thorough reinstall of iTunes as described here:

Upgrading / Installing iTunes 7.1 - Detailed Error Report, please help.

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade my iTunes to 7.1 Previously, my iTunes was working perfectly fine. I decided to give it a try and upgrade to 7.1 and to my horror, it does not work anymore.
I am running iTunes on Windows XP.
First of all, the installation for 7.1 has NOT worked. It was giving me an error. So, instead, I just assumed that the installation had not gone through, and my previous version was still installed and would function.
Incorrect. I am now getting the error:
"This action is only valid for products currently installed."
This must mean that the upgrade installation that started (but did not finish) must have wiped out the previous installation. Darn. I go back to run the iTunes 7.1 installation to see if it works this time...
Here is where the "big" error is that I can not figure out. The installation bar almost finishes, and runs some of the installation functions (such as copying files, etc.) when it gives me this error:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK and try again, or, enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below"
It then gives me a "browse" function so I can find the correct path to iTunes.msi - my only problem is that I don't know where it is, and after a shallow and basic search through the iTunes program files, I gave up.
Attached is a screen shot:
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/159/424601522_fac28e3a9d.jpg?v=0
I have read that it may also be a problem with Quicktime. So, I installed my version of Quicktime, then tried to run the installation package again.
Incorrect again. Still giving me the same error message.
I then went to Control Panel, Remove programs, and tried to manually remove iTunes. During the uninstallation, it gives me the same error message - missing the iTunes.msi file.
This has lead me to desperate measures and post here on the support forums. I hope that someone will be able to help me.
Thanks ahead of time.

"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK and try again, or, enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below"
with that one, let's try the following procedure.
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:

now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

You need to upgrade your copy of MS Office. You're using a version that is 8 years old (at least). You can buy Office 2011, which will work. You could also get a copy of Pages from the App Store, which is cheaper and will open Word files (though not perfectly). Or you could get a free Office clone, like OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.

My iPod 4G, after reset and iOS 6 install, now has only some album art after syncing music. Even music directly downloaded from iTunes is missing album art. (I'm using iTunes 11.0.1 on Windows Vista)

My iPod 4G, after a reset and iOS6 install, after I recopied and synced music, is missing most album art. Even songs directly downloaded from iTunes are missing album art. I'm using iTunes 11.0.1 on Windows Vista. My iPod isn't full. Whenever I go to "On This iPod" and add album art and sync, nothing happens. Please help :/

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Tried to update my itunes and it says "iTunes installed incorrectly" now i cannot access my library

tried to update itunes and it says after download "iTunes installed incorrectly" now I cannot access my library.....HELP!!

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 (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
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.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

ITunes library help - moved to external drive and now my apps are gone?

I moved my iTunes library to an external drive, but now my apps are gone? I do have iTunes match and iCloud, so my songs are all on the cloud, but none of my apps are showing...
I copied everything over, consolidated, but I must have messed something up as I think I have too many library files on the external drive now. I can see all my files on the external drive, but they are not showing up when I open itunes. It looks like it linked to a new copy of a library as only my most recent apps are showing, nad none of my existing ones are on itunes. What should I do to fix this? How do I know which files to delete?
Thanks.

I followed the instructions from Apple support to move itunes to an external drive, did what it said (obviously I messed something up). I then started itunes and missed the part where it says to tell itunes where the library was, and consequently itunes created a new library with none of my apps or anything in it.
All of my music is on icloud and I als ohave itunes match, so all of my music is on the cloud.
I have read some of the other postings to delete the newly made (and missing apps) itunes library file and ithen point it to the correct library file, but I am now paranoid I would delete the wrong one.
Thanks in advance for your help.

How do I delete iTunes 12 and reinstall 11? 12 installed itself and updated a Library.

How do I delete iTunes 12?
I want to use iTunes 11 to access an older Library on its own Hard Disk Drive.
iTunes 12 installed itself, and the moment I opened it with one of my music Libraries, it updated the Library on that disks (and took forever—I have 27,000 tracks). (I thought I had automatic updates turned off. They are now! It has been listed at the App Store before this, but for some reason, this time it just installed at a Restart though I believe I never clicked on its Update button.)
I tried deleting 12, but it complains it is part of Mac OS! (I didn't really know this.)
I tried changing 12's permissions via Get Info, so I could Read & Write to the application. Nada. I also tried adding myself, and doing the same. Nothing.
And I tried to install iTunes 11.4 for OS X 10.6 after downloading it, but the install complained I had a newer version, and then quit.
It seems I am stuck with iTunes 12, and have no other options.
Sometimes Apple software *****. Whatever happened to Easy?
Help!
S.

If you have a Time Machine backup or a clone from before the time you updated, you may be able to restore from there. The iTunes 11.4 download works only for Snow Leopard.
---| I want to use iTunes 11 to access an older Library on its own Hard Disk Drive.
If that library is an .xml file you can move it to your desktop and in iTunes you can choose Import Playlist and select the Library.xml file. That will give you all the playlists on the old library.
