Itunes 8 upgrade problems. Is there a bug that needs to be fixed?

(macbook, os 10.5.4)
It downloaded the itunes 8 upgrade several days ago. It was working fine, for a few hours and I was enjoying the new icons, etc.
Then, all of a sudden, I could no longer open up that itunes window, no matter what I did. I tried disk utilities, verifying and repairing permissions, as an apple friend recommended, that didn't help. I then went and re-installed itunes 8, AGAIN, and nothing changed.
So now, in order to access any of my itunes library, music, etc. I have to go into find and put in itunes and then I can find all my stuff and I can access, but I'd like to get my itunes window back.
Please help with very explicit instructions. I am a non-techy and am amazed I even figured out how to do what I've done.
Thanks!
macbook Mac OS X (10.5.4)

I had the same problem with my sister's iphone. Mine would show up but not her's.
Her phone was password protected , so I asked her to unlock her phone and I plugged it back again and it worked right away. Try it if it's password protected !

  • High pitched static on other end is a software bug that needs to be fixed immediately

    Every once in a while, the callers on the other line start hearing nothing but a high pitched static from me. I have no idea when it happens or what causes it. I can hear the other person just fine but they cannot hear me at all. I find out when the other person keeps saying hello and eventually hangs up. Once it happens, it happens on every call after that. 
    The only thing that fixes it is restarting the phone which is extremely annoying. This is most definitely a software bug and has nothing to do with whether you have good signal or if you use a case or not.
    I tested this with by calling my wife's phone when she was with me after the glitch happened.
    1) I had no case on the phone.
    2) I was getting a perfect signal (also perfect 4g)
    3) Switching to loudspeaker did nothing.
    4) Turning noise reduction on or off did nothing.
    5) muting and unmuting did nothing (except when muted there was obviously no static, but it came back upon unmuting)
    6) Turning wifi on or off did nothing
    7) Turning bluetooth on or off did nothing
    Answering an important call and hearing "hello, hello, hello and click" is the most annoying thing ever. Because then I have to restart my phone which takes quite a while and the other person is repeatedly calling me in the meantime. 
    This needs to be fixed immediately. After all, this device is a phone first. All those smart functions come second. If I can't make or receive calls properly this device has to go.

    Oh no! This definitely can be annoying!!
    We have had others with the Droid Charge call/write in with the same issue. Replacing the phone didn't resolve which also leads me to believe it is a software glitch.
    First, make sure you do have the most recent sofware version vy going to:
    Settings>About Phone>System Updates>Check New    You should currently have i510EE4
    We have let Samsung know that there is an issue with some of the Droid Charge's having a high pitched noise.
    At this time, they are looking into it in order to provide a resolution.

    AMT Subsystem Failure
    The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call customer support.
    I rebooted the computer and tried again:
    Licensing for this product has stopped working.
    You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help.
    I can access Acrobat and MS Office programs, it's just the CS3 programs that I can't access. Can I uninstall and then reinstall CS3 without an access (un-lock) code?

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Dell U2412M as an external display for my MacBook Pro mid 2008, the clarity of fonts are absolutely unimpressive.  The settings do not detect the Dell U2412M (which is grayed out), are there any drivers that need to be installed ?

    I have posted this annoying Robles to bugreport.apple.com. Hope I can get locution (although Apple normally will not respond):
    On a software name Appfresh, it alerted me to update my MBPr 15 inches running latest OSX 10.8.2, with Chinese Word List Update 1.2. When I clicked on Software Pdate, app Store return No update available.
    My system have Chinese Word List Update 1.0 installed, and on October 5, 2012, Chinese Word List Update 1.1 was released by Apple, as alerted through AppFresh. However, this update never get updated on m system. I have to manually download chinesewordlistupdate.pkg from reviews.cnet.com/macfixit and install it manually. By doing so, I have Chinese Word List Update 1.1 on my system.
    The same problem occurred again today on November 5, 2012, where Chinese Word List Update is released by Apple. again, it fail to update from Software Update menu.
    Can you please:
    1. Explain why this problem occurred. This is so annoying.
    2. Advise me how can I get this Chinese Word List Date to update to version 1.2. Can you please send me the chinesewordlistupdate.pkg for version 1,2 so that I can manually install it on my system?
    3. How can I prevent similar problem with he subsequent version?
    Why Apple don't make this update standard as other update?
    Support please. Thank for response in advance

  • Fireworks CS4 to CS6 - is there a setting that needs to be adjusted so that web pages look right in

    Fireworks CS4 to CS6 - is there a setting that needs to be adjusted so that web pages look right in Internet Explorer?  I was in the middle of creating pages with Fireworks CS4 and exporting them to Dreamweaver CS4 and publishing them to the website. Those pages looked fine. Then I upgraded to CS6 and the pages  look fine in  Fireworks, Dreamweaver and when I preview them "live" in Chrome but not Internet Explorer. Anyone know why?  Also, with upgrading the software I upgraded to a new computer.  Any and all suggestions are welcomed.  Thanks!

    Most likely caused by a missing document type declaration (DTD).  Truth is, the HTML code generated by graphics apps is not web worthy.  It's really only intended for quick mock-ups to show a client before you rebuild everything with CSS & HTML code in Dreamweaver.

  • TS3274 My IPad is dead. Nothing will show on the screen. Screen not cracked and no water or liquid has been spilled on it. Is there a battery that needs to be replaced?

    My IPad is dead. Nothing will show on the screen. Screen not cracked and no liquid spilled on it. Is there a battery that needs to be replaced?

    Battery not charging:
    1. Reset iPad; hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo
    2. Try another wall socket
    3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
    4. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
    5. Clean Lightning port with compress air or new paint brush

    I can't help you with a direct answer.  For third-party devices you should contact the vendor (Vodafone). 
    If you have an iPhone (or an Android phone with hot-spot capability) you can use that to connect to the Internet without paying for a separate cellular service.

  • My iphone 4s power button is stuck. Is there any chance that it can be fix?

    My iphone 4s power button is stuck. is there any chance that it can be fix?

    This will be covered for free under Apple Warranty. Until you do this, a software workaround is a Virtual Lock Button in Assistive Touch on iPhone. Tap Settings App>General>Accessibility>Assitive Touch>ON>Tap new Virtual White Screen Button>tap Device> tap Lock Screen. If you hold down on the Lock Screen Icon it will give you the "slide to power off". To turn iPhone ON, connect to Power Source with USB Cable, via Charger or Computer USB Port.

  • My Iphone 5 clock alarm isnt going off when its "on sound", it acts as if its on vibrate and doesnt wake me up. Started with the IOS upgrade. Is there a bug?

    My new Iphone 5 clock alarm isnt going off where I can hear it.  Its started on my 4S when I upgraded to IOS6 and even on the Itouch too.  I set the clock alarm, turn on sound (not silent), the alarm goes off, but no sounds comes out.   I have to reset home to get it to recognize its off, but that doesnt always work, it did it on both my Itouch and Iphone5 I almost over slept this morning because never of them went off and woke me up.   Acted as it the sound was down (which it wasnt) and it was on silent mode (which it wasnt)  Is there a bug with this?  I cant trust my phone now to wake me up.  Any help?  Thanks Tracey

    Same problem here. Me and my girlfriend swapped iphone 5's (she has white, I have black) in may and I rely on the alarm every morning to wake me up for work. It hasn't let me down.
    A few days ago I set 2 alarms very early in the morning to wake me up for an early morning flight. Neither alarm made a sound & I missed the flight!!
    We then swapped our phones back & she has just had exactly the same thing happen & has missed an important meeting at work. Again, quite an early morning alarm. The odd thing is I have a black iphone 5, also latest OS,  never had this happen to me...
    Has anyone solved this problem. I can't make it repeat (reset the same alarm for a different time & it goes off fine).
    Does I need to buy her a dedicated alarm clock!?!

  • Safari JavaScript bug I need to find/fix

    I am a webmaster of a popular site and I really want to support the Safari users but currently do not own a Mac so I was hoping someone here can help me track down a bug in my JavaScript that only effects Safari users.
    I checked my code with both old and new versions of Internet Explore and Firefox running under Windows XP and it works correctly. I have visitors telling me it is not correct under Safari, though again I cannot even verify this.
    Here is a page with the possible Safari bug:
    http://www.onlineconversion.com/volume.htm
    Enter 0.15 in the quantity field, choose "liter" on the left list box, and "ounce [US liquid]" on the right.
    Here is the correct result you should get:
    0.15 liter = 5.072 103 384 ounce [US, liquid]
    A Safari visitor of mine says he is getting 2.147 instead of the above. He says he is using version 1.2.4 of Safari
    Again I have no access to a Mac so I do not know if the bug does exist, if it is only for certain units or all units, so if someone can check and let me know it would be a big help. If you could also track down the bug I would forever be your friend.

    Here's the download page for Safari 2.0.1. (note the OS version in the 'System Requirements' box lower right).
    Just for confirmation, you can see on the pages you linked to that the OS version there is limited to the 10.3 range.
    FWIW this page is the location for the 1.3.1 update and you'll note that this is restricted to specifically OS 10.3.9 and is perhaps the latest version released for that operating system.
    Here's the page where all these come from... (note the first two links)
    Your page works fine for my 2.0.2 version as well so I'm certain this is a problem with outdated software and you should encourage the user to upgrade their Safari and see if that resolves the problem.
    Why is the default download the old version and a bit of extra digging is needed to find the latest version?
    I really don't know, but what I suspect is going on here is something along the lines of this:
    There is no point in downloading the latest Safari if one doesn't have 10.4 and to have 10.4 you must buy it and therefore will own a copy of Safari v.2 (actually called 'Safari RSS' to further muddy the waters). At this point the 'minor' upgrade(s) are then easily available from 'Software Update' or with a bit of digging on their downloads page.
    I'm assuming then that the older version is of less significance to them (piracy?) and is thus more widely available, or perhaps they have a policy to make older more established systems available as the default.
    Of course, unlikely, but on the other hand this could all just be an admin mistake that hasn't been spotted yet...
    EDIT: A thought just occurred to me: in both of these 'latest' updates they are both for very specific versions of their respective operating systems and as such Apple may prefer to direct users to the latest stable upgrades that are for the widest range of the relevant OS to avoid user problems. There's only two pathways for this - the page you referenced for 10.3, and by buying 10.4...
    Still, a little more page linking and advice might have been useful...

  • N70 problems that need to be fixed in next FW

    Since there's been a time since Nokia released a new FW for the N70, maybe they need to know what need to be fixed, and ASAP, since these are severe problems.
    1. The Music Player: It starts slow, very slow. In the v2 and v3 FW it used to open in a second, now it takes almost a minute. It displays the "Opening" sequence, and then "Processing" sequence, and only after that you enter the Music Menu. Also, veru important issue: If you go to All Songs -> select a song, and then hold a button from the joystick, the Music Player crashes. But the opening is the MOST IMPORTANT. Make it quicker.
    2. The Gallery has to be faster. We have to wait a lot of time for the Gallery to open, then we select Pictures & Videos. Here we find a "Opening" sequence of about a minute, and then we wait a lot until the pictures are loaded (if they're newly added).
    3. Speaking of pictures, when N70 owners make a picture/video, they don't really have time to view the picture/video, since the viewing time is very limited (about 3 seconds). How about making a BACK button, so that we'll go back to the viewfinder when we're done viewing newly captured moments?
    4. When in Messaging -> Delivery reports, you can't use the C button to delete delivery reports.
    5. No information about Radio in Active Standby, when Radio is on and playing.
    These are only a few of the problems that the N70 continues to have. Please, other N70 users, post your issues/bugs here, so that Nokia will try (hopefully) to improve the N70. I know the N70 is not an important product anymore, but it does not mean it has to have serious issues.

    Hi all,
    I have my problems described on /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=24567
    1. It's video capture problem - microphone sensitivity is too high (only on mp4 and only on 5.xx firmware). Also refresh rate during videocapture is very slow. It's not possible to make nice mp4 video capture! Interesting is that 3gp capture is nice, fast with clear sound, only mp4 capture have a problem...
    2. I don't know why it's not possible to make clean reboot now. (e.g. on FExplorer, reboot). N70 with last firmware during reboot freezes (white screen)
    3. Should be possible to turn off the Nokia sound during N70 starting? I have little childrens and every morning when I turn on my N70 they all awake...
    NOKIA, please, is it possible to prepare new fw?
