Itunes does nothing when I try to update

This has happened with the last three updates. I have to uninstall everything and reinstall it. I click to update; accept the terms; and then it goes back to the same screen asking if I want to update., Is there a way to fix this so I am not uninstalling every time?

  • ITunes does nothing when I try to Import

    Hello,
    I have tried to import several songs into ITunes with extensions of wma and CDA. I have tried dragging and dropping them into my library and I have also tried "Adding them to my Library" as well, but neither approach works. I don't receive an error message. The computer just doesn't do anything. When I drop the file into my library, nothing happens. When I choose a song to "Add to the Library", the dialog box disappears, but nothing else happens. I have the latest version of the software. Any ideas?
    Thank you.

    Hello:
    I actually am having a similar problem to the one described above, except that it is with an mp3 file. It is a file I received attached to an email. It downloaded successfully, and appears on my Desktop and all that. I have tried adding it using "Add to library" as well as dragging and clicking, and nothing happens. It does not appear in the library. Any thoughts on why this might be, or how to open the file, would be much appreciated!
    Thank you so much,
    Carol-Irene

    Try quitting the App Store:
    Tap the home button to get to the home screen. Then double tap the home button, and hold your finger over the App Store icon. Tap the red when it appears. Tap the home button again to return to the home screen.
    Try resetting:
    Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.

  • I can go onto the itunes store but when i try to update ios 7 it says i have no internet connection

    i can go onto the itunes store but when i try to update ios 7 it says i have no internet connection

    I upgraded my iphone 5 to IOS 7 and it will not recognise my previously OK bt home hub connection.  If I go to an allternative, BT WiFI it connects but will not allow me to access anything on the web or any applications needing web access.  Any way round this or can I revert back to IOS 6?

  • ITunes does nothing when I add music to the library. It just stares blankly back at me. How can a program suck this much?

    Title says it all. When my phone is connected, iTunes freezes when I have the audacity to click the file button. When my phone is unplugged, I add music to the library, either by folder, or by file, and nothing happens. I just updated to a new version this morning, I don't know why i ever agree to that, it's always a mistake. How can they keep making the program worse? I don't get it.

    If you put the music section of the library in songs view ordered by date added descending do you see any of the material you tried to add at the top of the list? Have you tried using the <Media Folder>\Automtically Add to iTunes folder to add media?
    As for the iPhone have you reviewed this support document, not withstanding that iTunes might display the device? TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.
    Have you considered (or recently performed) a complete tear down and rebuild of iTunes? See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

  • ITunes does nothing when I plug my iPhone in

    I have an iPhone 5 32GB, a 2007 iMac 24", Mountain Lion 10.8.4 and iTunes 11.0.4 (4).
    When I plug my iPhone into my Mac, absolutely nothing happens. If iTunes is closed, it doesn't open. If iTunes is open, no iPhone button appear in the top right corner and nothing changes in the sidebar.
    I have also tried plugging it into my PC which has iTunes installed, and then the iPhone button does appear, but I don't want to sync it on that machine - I want to sync it on my Mac.
    Any ideas?

  • ITunes locks up when I try to update or restore iPod from iTunes 7

    I have tried several times to update my iPod to version 1.2 using the new iTunes 7 interface - the one click "easy" option. Everytime I do I get nowhere - iTunes 7 locks up and that's it. I thought I'd try to restore the iPod and start from there. Same thing happens, though; it locks up and I'm done. I get no error messages.
    Based on many posts I've read, I'm not sure it's a good idea to even upgrade to version 1.2.
    Anyone else having this issue? Any advice?
    Thanks!

    I am posting a possible solution to all these problems I and so many of you have said you've experienced. I think I had two things working against me:
    1) I did not have a 2.0 USB port when trying to update my ipod to version 1.2. I think this effected the connection and iTunes ability to recognize my iPod.
    Anyway, I put in a new USB 2.0 card in my computer, giving me new ports off the mother board, and my connection and update worked.
    2) I was not giving it enough time. After I installed the USB card and everything I tried to update my iPod a couple of times, but still had a long slow stall that I did not wait through. I kept at it though and a few days later I set it up to update and left to go out to dinner. Hours late I came back and found things different. I used windows to disconnect my iPod and then noticed a dark "working" bar on my iPod. It was finally updating the device. I waited a while unitl it was finished and then diconnected and ever since then I've got version 1.2 on the iPod and things are working better.
    So, my advice: check your USB ports and then give it a few hours.
    I really hope this works for you. I worked on this problem for two months and I'm so glad it finally came through. I wish Apple would post some more resolutions that are better than mine.
    Good luck,
    Galahad

  • ITunes unknown error when I try to update downloads

    Okay, so I'm trying to download a song I bought on my iPhone, so I clicked check for available downloads.
    The login screen pops up, with a little red text "unknown error".
    I re-type my correct password, the one I'm using for this. Then it says "You must have forgotten your password. It was entered incorrectly too many times." I only clicked it once, and I typed it right because I'm using it right now.
    I don't know what to do.. D:

    Go to Settings>Store >Apple ID, tap your ID and sign out. Then reboot the iPad, Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Then go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if the apps will update.

  • My Apple ID was changed.  Yet when I try to update apps I am asked to enter the password for the old IG which will not work and no matter what I do. When I attempt to update apps it still askes for the wrong ID data.

    My Apple ID was changed.  It works fine on my IPad mini, my MAc and in Itunes Store,  Yet when I try to update apps on my IPAD 1 I am asked to enter a password for the old ID user name which appears in the pop up window. When It still askes for the wrong ID data. I have uodated it in settings, and I have logged ontht the account to verify that it still works properly and it does.  I reboot the IPAD and then attempt to update apps again but it still asked for the Old ID password and still shows the old ID username.  The dame thing refuses to recognize my new Apple ID data.  This is making my older IPAD unuseable.

    You cannot change your Apple ID. You can get a new one if you want, but all of your Apps and media are linked to yoru old Apple ID. And no, Apple won't transfer your old ID purchases to yoru new ID.

  • HT5622 I have changed my appleID and password through my laptop.  I have then changed it on my iPod Touch in settings. When I try to update my apps on the ipod touch it keeps throwing up the old appleID.  How can I get the iPod Touch to use the new ID?

    I have changed my appleID and password through my laptop. I have then changed them in my iPod touch settings in "iTunes & App stores" When I try to update my apps it fails because it wishes to continue to use the previous ID.  What do I have to do to make it accept the new ID?

    If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

    - Try going to Setings>Store and sign out of the account and then sign back in.
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
