Liz,
There is this knowledge base article that explains how to uninstall iTunes
Troubleshooting iTunes and iPod Software installation on Windows
In particular, you need to download / install / run the Microsoft Install Cleanup Utility.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=290301
You should also run the Quicktime standalone installer first. This will sometimes report errors that the iTunes installer doesn't.

    hi, my 120gb ipod classic is not showing up in itunes, and everything is gone.
    how do i format it on microsoft ' format portable audio player ' ?
    the device has just installed necessary drivers to microsoft upon plugging in
    like a say though, not showing up in itunes still
    before it recently had this failure, it had shown up as corrupted and that it needed restoring (but i was holding off, as i manually managed all music and was hoping for a way to back it all up, to no avail)
    first time posting here, would appreciate a quick answer because tempted to just click the 'restore device defaults' option
    Many thanks

    My Mac Mini doesn't recognize my Avengers DVD--it keeps saying "Supported disc not available." I've tried other DVD's which work, but not this one. itunes and everything else has been updated to the newest versions. Help? Also...It doesn't recognize the digital copy DVD.

    I have ALL the exact same symptoms as on my home computer.
    It sure sounds to me like something on the iPod is broken. If it's under warranty then I would send it back for repair. If not, check out some of the web repair services, such as iPodResQ etc.

        Dear Tylerkeefe,
    Good morning. Getting notifications that you are close to exceeding your allowance can certainly be alarming. It would be my pleasure to help put your mind at ease.
    I understand you are not streaming movies, music, etc. Which these features will use a lot of data. Are you using the Mobile Hotspot on your phone. This may also cause you to exceed your data allowance quickly if you do not power if off after you are done using the feature. To turn off mobile hostpot tap settings>general>personal hotspot>off. Do you have any third party applications that you have installed that may be running a lot of data?
    To ensure applications are not consistently running in the background do the following press the menu button at the bottom of your phone twice. All the open apps will then appear. Select and hold the bottom of the screen. A minus sign will then appear in the top left of each app. Select each minus sign to close out the application.
    I hope the information given will help clarify what is using a lot of data on your phone. Should you have further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us.
    Thank You,

  • A lady at Best Buy erased everything off my iphone 3gs, now when i try to download facebook app it said it requires ios 4.3. I have hooked it up to itunes and everything but nobody knows how to get the ios 4.3 on this phone. HELP someone plz

    I need help on how to download the ios 4.3. to my iphone 3gs. My mom was using it and everythig was fine but when she upgraded the lady erased everything so it would be like new and now when i try to download a app like facebook it says it requires ios 4.3. and i have asked people at phone places and i have hooked it up to itunes and still havent been able to..when i go to settings then general it doesnt show up any software updates, that whole part is erased. someon eplease help me!\

    What version of iOS are you running? I'm going to bet that you do NOT have a 3Gs. You have a 3G. The highest version of iOS that can run is 4.2.1.
    If you did not save a copy of the older facebook at that could run on 4.2.1 on your computer that you can sync back, then you're out of luck. The newest version (and the only one available in the app store) will not run on 4.2.1. 
    You will have to resort to using the mobile web page in Safari or find a 3rd party app that will run on your phone.

  • TS5223 Updated to iOS8. I don't remember the password for my old Apple ID or the password for that e-mail. I can't delete the iCloud account without knowing it, although my iTunes and everything else is set to the new Apple ID and password. Help?!

    I keep getting pop-ups telling me to sign in to my iCloud and it's very annoying. I have no idea what the old password was, and I don't really have a way of changing the old password because I also don't know my password for the e-mail address connected to it (it kept telling me that the answers to my security questions were wrong, but I'm not sure what other answers they would have been). Therefore, I created an entirely new e-mail and a new Apple ID and everything else is set to that ID... except iCloud. Is there any way to correct this, or am I out of luck?

    If your device is signed into an old iCloud ID, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID*, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).
    * If that's not the case, you'll have to contact the Apple account security team and ask for assistance resetting the password for the old ID: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security.  You'll have to be able to prove your identity to them before they will do this.

  • Has anyone ever gotten a MacBook pro with *********** pre loaded on it?  I went into itunes, and everything was empty except for movies where there were three 15 second pornographic videos.

    As I stated in the title, I ordered my Macbook Pro from apple online.  I have had it for 4 days now and I was looking to transfer all of my songs from my mac mini to my macbook. 
    I opened up itunes and all of the categories were blank except the movies, and there were 3 of the same clips there.  It was a 15 second video that involved a guy, a girl and a slip-n-slide. 
    I have concerns as to what else is on this thing as far as viruses and other pornographic videos, even illegal material.  I was also hoping my daughter can use this for school.   The last thing I would want is for her to be doing something and stumble upon a file that would surely be inappropriate.
    Any advice?

  • I plugged in my nano to transfer all my songs to ITunes and everything was erased..how do I get them back

    I plugged my nano into my new Hp Touch on windows 8 to download all my music back to ITunes and it erased everthing off my nano and now I cant find any of my songs..HELP

    Yeah, unless she backs up the iphone to the itunes on her original computer before syncing again. Backing up will create a backup of the camera roll, so this shouldn't be a problem.
    Copied from the OP's post.
    I plugged in my iphone to my mom's computer for charging and all my pictures are now on her computer and off my iphone.
    The photos imported by her Mom's computer were deleted from the Camera Roll after the import process was completed. If she updates her iPhone's backup now, it will be updated with a blank Camera Roll on the iPhone.
    The question was how to get the photos back onto the phone. What I said would have worked.
    And what you provided would have transferred these photos back to her iPhone in the Photo Library preventing her from importing the photos with her computer. And if there are any photos on her iPhone that were transferred from her computer or regardless, the photos transferred from her Mom's computer to her iPhone via the iTunes sync process will be deleted from her iPhone's Photo Library as the first step when selecting to transfer any photos from her computer to her iPhone.

  • My i tunes won't open. i keep getting error7 (windows error 193) . contacted microsoft(thought it was a windows thing...not) have uninstalled itunes and everything related to it ,re installed and message still comes up. Help please,driving me crazy.

    help. my iTunes wont open. I keep getting the message error7 (windows error 193). contacted Microsoft they said contact iTunes support. I have uninstalled all iTunes componets and then reinstalled everything but message still comes up... its driving me crazy.

    If it's a Windows error, it's typically going to be a Microsoft problem. Uninstall any security software you have and if you have a restore point for your PC, you may want to restore your PC back to when iTunes was working normally. If none of those work you would need to contact Microsoft and demand help.

  • I just updated to the newest version of Itunes and everything has disappeared from my library. It is still on my iphone, but there is nothing in my library. How do I get it back?

    I just updated itunes to 10.6.
    Windows. Vista. (up to date)
    Everything is the library has gone - no apps, music, videos etc.
    Playlists have gone.
    Everything on the iPhone is still there.
    I can't sync because everything will then get deleted from the phone and replaced with the (empty) library.
    How can I get it all back to normal?

    In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?
    No content shows up in iTunes after updating

  • Opened my iTunes and everything was gone

    I turned my laptop on just before and clicked to open my itunes only to find it empty and completely wiped clean. I cant afford to lose my 3000 songs and all the bought apps.... someone please help i have no idea how to get everything back onto it! No one will help me from the apple company and i really am beginning to stress. Is there any way it is backed up and i can restore the itunes to its original state? it just doesnt make sense for it all to be gone, just like that.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps youshouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Opened itunes and everything was in the icloud

    I moved all the files from the itunes folder to the library and it worked for most of my files.  BUT, many are still missing, others are duplicated.  Then, when I pull he missing files individually to the iTunes library, they won't transfer.  Then, other files disappear after they are played.  The only thing we changed is adding a hard drive for additional space after itunes telling us we were running out of hard drive space.  (The new itunes format didn't help either)  Our library is over 1TB.  Please help!  this is very frustrating!

  • Just updated iPhone with iTunes and everything on iPhone is wiped and even says there is no simcard inserted.

    I just updated my iPhone with iTunes from my Mac and the entire contents of the iPhone are wiped. It wants me to reconfigure from scratch but then says there is no simcard inserted so must have wiped that too?   I have no Wifi where I am. iTunes will not allow me to access the iPhone either - it can detect it but as it says there is no simcard it wont read it.
    Can anyone help I am soooo annoyed!

    The switch from an available wi-fi network to AT&T's cellular network and back again has always been automatic and seamless with nothing special required - as the iPhone is designed to do.
    If the standard troubleshooting steps do not resolve this, which in order are power your iPhone off and on, reset, restore with iTunes, the next step (assuming you are in the U.S.) is calling AppleCare at (800) 694-7466, or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.
