ITunes doesn't appear after installing iTunes 7.6

I posted this earlier in the topic "Itunes installation headache" (because my problem looked very similar), but I got an email that I should open my own topic (because this post was deleted). So here it is!
I already got a respons about deleting the threat "Trackware.SAHAgent". And I tried to follow the instructions, but I couldn't find any of the subkeys on my computer which where named in the article. So I'm going to ask a friend to check if I did it right, just to be a 100% sure. But for now my question still remains, so read below please.
I think I've got the same problem with iTunes. Two days ago I updated my iPod (classic). After the update my iPod wouldn't synchronize with iTunes anymore, because it required iTunes 7.6. I had iTunes 7.4.3, which never worked completely perfect. (The error "iTunes might be unable to launch or communicate with iPod or iPhone" appeared, even after I followed the instructions online, but I didn't bother me, because the rest of the program worked just fine.)
So to synchronize my iPod again, I downloaded and installed iTunes 7.6. The screen with "Congratulations, the installation is complete etc." appeared and I tried to run iTunes, but it didn't appear and there were no errors. The weird thing is, that when I tried to shut down the computer I received a message that iTunes is running. (I don't have problems with Quicktime, by the way)
I tried the following things, but iTunes still won't work:
open iTunes manually
deleting SC Info
using the microsoft clean up tool
reinstall iTunes after deleting iTunes, Quicktime, Apple Mobile Device Support and Apple Software Update
switching to Selective Startup
running iTunes in a new user account (wasn't able to open iTunes there either)
So I runned the virus scan online. It only detected one threat named: "Trackware.SAHAgent". I couldn't find the removal information on the symantec site, so I only deleted the .exe file which was infected. I don't know if that was a smart move, but nothing changed.
What should I do to get iTunes running again? I really need 7.6 to run, because trying to reset the settings on my iPod didn't work either. So reinstalling iTunes 7.4.3 isn't an option, because my iPod won't synchronize then.
I hope that someone has a solution.
(by the way: I also opened a MP3 file just to try if music start playing even when you can't see iTunes, but it remained silent.)

I have the same exact problem.
(Except I have recently run a virus/malware scan and I do not have the same virus/malware you appear to have)
I need help too please!

    Hi,
    1. Stop the DBConsole. (set ORACLE_SID first & ORACLE_HOME)
    cd %ORACLE_HOME%\bin
    emctl stop dbconsole
    2. Update the <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emd.properties file.
    Change line from:
    tracelevel.main=WARN
    To
    tracelevel.main=DEBUG
    Decomment this line, so that the line becomes :
    EMAGENT_PERL_TRACE_LEVEL=DEBUG
    3. Update the <ORACLE__HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emomslogging.properties
    Change line from:
    log4j.rootCategory=WARN, emlogAppender, emtrcAppender
    To
    log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, emlogAppender, emtrcAppender
    4. Remove/backup all log files from ORACLE_HOME/<hostname_sid>/sysman/log
    5. Start the dbconsole and upload the output of each command
    - start the dbconsole: "emctl start dbconsole"
    - issue "emctl clearstate"
    - status the dbconsole: "emctl status dbconsole"
    - check the status of the agent until it comes up: "emctl status agent"
    - force an upload: emctl upload
    6. Check If you are able to view the dbconsole Page & login
    check below logs may be you can see the close error messages to solve the issue.
    <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/log directory
    <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emoms.properties
    Otherwise re-create the DBconsole using the metalink doc 278100.1 : How To Drop, Create And Recreate DB Control In A 10g Database. (Please check the steps from Recreate/ReConfig DB Control, if you want to re-create)
    Thanks.

  • My iPhoto doesn't work after installing lion?

    My Iphoto doesn't work after installing lion.
    it suggest that I have to instal iphoto again.
    where can I find this

    If it suggests that you install iPhoto again, install iPhoto again. In your Macs Box that it came in there should be 2 Discs, one is an Applications CD (You need this one) And another is the Mac OS X.
    Insert your Applications CD and hold C while the computer is starting up, then you will be walked through the installation of Applications.

  • File open dialog doesn't appear after a period of time in latest version of Illustrator CC 2014

    Hi All,
    Is anyone else having a problem doing a File > Open after using Illustrator for a while? I select File > Open and nothing happens after I've used Illustrator for a while. Doesn't seem to be any pattern to it, the File Open dialog just doesn't appear so I have to shut down and re-open Illustrator.
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Hi Sumit,
    I've tried as suggested and reset preferences a few times as outlined on the help page you referenced, but I still have the same issue. If I open one file, within what seems to be a random amount of "open file" or "place" commands, the file open dialog is not invoked and I have to shut down Illustrator and re-open it. Then I can do a open or place once or twice before I'm locked out again.  Maybe a re-install of the app?
    Thanks,
    Ben

  • Welcome window doesn't appear when installing CS5 on new imac

    I'm trying to install CS5 into my new imac but after I inserted the Application disc 1, nothing happens. the welcome window doesn't appear. No window to fill in serial #s, etc. Installed Acrobat with no problem though. Thanks.

    Thanks for your response Jeff. I'm still getting myself familiar with Lion and obviously handicapped with these tech stuff so pardon my ignorance. I didn't see the DVD icon the way I used to in earlier OS so just assumed it wasn't working the way Acrobat worked (the first DVD I inserted). Now, I transferred the contents of my backup drive onto my new imac and see both CS4 and CS5 transferred into the Applications folder. Does that mean the softwares are installed or do I need to install them through the DVDs? Don't want to accidentally screw up anything. If I just dragged and deleted CS4, does that completely remove it out of my iMac? thanks so much for your help.

    Anybody can help me please.
    Kind regards.

    Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem:
    • If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
       suggestions do not help you, continue with the following.
    • Use Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the 10.7.2 Combo Update:
         http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1459
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    The Combo version of updates can sometimes correct
    strange problems like yours.
    For camera problems in web video, you may need to update to the current version of Flash: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    If you need to update Flash, follow Adobe's instructions and uninstall your old Flash before installing the new one: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90893.html

  • Hello! i downloaded OS X Mavericks on my mac .since then my computer didn't restart properly.My desktop image doesn't appear after logging in and i'm unable to shut it down.

    Hello! I downloaded OS X Mavericks on my Mac and my pc didn't restart properly.my desktop image doesn't appear and i can't shut down my pc. what can i do ?

    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamps of the BOOT_TIME log messages, which refer to the times when the system was started. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
    If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    ☞ When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
    DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent of each. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    ☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    ☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Web Start doesn't run after install

    Hi all,
    I'm wondering wether Web Start doesn't start after successful installation. Only the splash screen is shown a while when starting JWS and the administration screen doesn't pop up.
    I've read some mails about similiar problems (proxy?), but didn't resolve the problem yet.
    NT 4.0 SP 5, JWS 1.01._01 with RT

    Hello,
    I am not sure, but this does sound like I had the same problem. I got the following reply:
    Take a look at:
    http://www.geocities.com/vamp201/jwsfaq.html
    --> 'Why can't I start Web Start's app manager under Windows? Why does the app manager's preferences dialog fail to appear? '
    This might be a proxy issue. Try to turn off your proxy by putting
    javaws.cfg.proxy.setting=NONE
    in your 'javaws.cfg' file and see if it Web Start's app manager shows up then.
    I have added the line mentioned above, and it worked fine. In addition I added the following line:
    javaws.cfg.jre.default=0
    Check this out and good luck!

    Hi,
    1. Stop the DBConsole. (set ORACLE_SID first & ORACLE_HOME)
    cd %ORACLE_HOME%\bin
    emctl stop dbconsole
    2. Update the <ORACLE_HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emd.properties file.
    Change line from:
    tracelevel.main=WARN
    To
    tracelevel.main=DEBUG
    Decomment this line, so that the line becomes :
    EMAGENT_PERL_TRACE_LEVEL=DEBUG
    3. Update the <ORACLE__HOME>/<hostname_sid>/sysman/config/emomslogging.properties
    Change line from:
    log4j.rootCategory=WARN, emlogAppender, emtrcAppender
    To
    log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, emlogAppender, emtrcAppender
    4. Remove/backup all log files from ORACLE_HOME/<hostname_sid>/sysman/log
    5. Start the dbconsole and upload the output of each command
    - start the dbconsole: "emctl start dbconsole"
    - issue "emctl clearstate"
    - status the dbconsole: "emctl status dbconsole"
    - check the status of the agent until it comes up: "emctl status agent"

  • Camera app doesn't work after installing a new screen

    I have been fixing broken iPhone screens for quite some time now but have never come across something like this. After installing a new screen the camera app won't show the camera and the shutter never opens. I thought I didn't put one of the cables in right so I double checked and sure enough they were in good. I restored the phone and tried it again with no luck. I then switched out to another screen I found and the camera worked perfectly. This is so bizzarre to me but can anyone explain to me what is wrong? Or what has happened? I have never seen anything like this.

    I keep getting an error message of (0xE80000001)!

  • IMac 24" doesn't start after installing Mavericks.

    After installing Mavericks (10.9.2) the machine started having hiccups... rebooting at random times on it's own.  After upgrading to 10.9.3, it only got worse.  Reboots were more frequent (as little as 1 minute between each reboot).  Then it took the final step and went into a state where it remains with black screen, the startup jingle may begin, but is killed within half a second or less... goes into a reboot loop.  The DVD sounds, then it tries to reboot again, DVD sounds... sometimes the jingle starts... but is cut off by a reboot.  Trying to get ANYTHING done with different key press combinations (option+command+R+P, D, T, Command, Option... pretty much every single combination one can find online for accessing safe boot or recovery or whatever... does not work.  The machine seems to have been killed by Mavericks.  I have come across a LOT of posts by other people who have experienced the same thing (rebooting after installing Mavericks) going back to October last year, and a few have experienced the same dead computer issue as I am having... all the while there is no fix or explanation from APPLE regarding this issue.  I have even opened the machine up and checked all cable connections, tested the HDD on another computer (was ok), cleaned the memory module connectors etc.  Before the total crash I had installed a temperature monitoring program with ventilator control, due to the DVD ventilator running at high RPM after installing Maverics.  All the temp sensors were reporting modest temps (ranging from 39 - 79 Celsius (only the power supply was above 50 Celsius). 
    The computer is as useful as a brick by this point. Since it went dead, it has successfully started up 3 times (out of 500+ attempts), but rebooted within a couple of minutes, into it's cycle of dead reboots.
    One way of getting it to boot and prepare for re-installation, is to keep the power button pressed until it sounds 3 times long, 3 times short and 3 times long beeps... it would only start making the first beep... then it rebooted in to death again.
    Could it be that Mavericks is destroying the firmware, or even killing the hardware?  I also have Mavericks on MBA and MBP, where the MBA has no problems, while the MBP freezes up every 2 days or so... requiring a forced reboot.
    Anyone with a usable advice on what to do in order to get the machine working again?  How many years does it normally take APPLE support staff to fix serious issues like this one?  It's already been over 7 months since the first people began experiencing these issues with Mavericks, but nothing has been done about it on APPLE's end ... as far as I can tell.
    Looking forward to some solutions.

    Just wanted to write the conclusion of this issue here, and make things as clear as possible.
    I took the iMac to a support center, and they confirmed that several components on the power supply board were fried and other parts had been overheated.  It took a few weeks for them to get the needed parts (much cheaper than replacing the entire unit).  I brought the iMac back home and started it up, and it did work... but it was getting very hot very quickly. I was thinking that maybe I should install Mountain Lion on it, and get away from Mavericks... just in case.... the computer had been turned on for around 1 hour at that point, and then it rebooted.... and stayed dead for 10 minutes or so... until it could start up again.  Was on for a few minutes... then dead again.
    Clearly the cause of the problem was still present, and fixing the symptom did not prove to be a lasting solution.
    The machine would not stay turned on long enough (when it DID turn on) for even formatting the disk, so I removed the SDD from it, formatted it with my MBA (connected through USB), and inserted it in the iMac again.  Starting it up resulted in a few minutes being turned on, overheating and crashing. Having downloaded ML and created a USB installer for it, it was now a case of trying one's patience ... hoping for the machine to stay turned on long enough to make it all the way through the installation process.... it managed to do the first part of the installation after several hours of crashing and overheating.... and it came to a point where I simply turned it off and gave up... thinking that the problem simply was physical in nature, and not caused by Mavericks as I had assumed from the start.  Next day I had renewed energy, turned the puter on and it behaved in the same way... turning off, then starting by itself trying to get through the installation.... it would fail again and again... I left the house, with it turned on, hoping that it would at least manage to finish at some point in time... so that I could write off my "BAD Mavericks" suspicion.  When I returned several hours later, the installation was complete and the machine was purring quietly and the back of the computer was NOT hot like a steam iron.
    Now it has been working for several days without any problems at all.
    The final conclusion is this:
    Mavericks IS at fault, and will physically DESTROY computers that are "somehow" not compatible with it.  I would have thought that Apple had enough capable engineers to prevent the operating system to mess up the hardware in this way, but clearly I was wrong on that account.  I can only WARN other people to even attempt installing Mavericks on puters of this type:
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:   iMac
      Model Identifier:     iMac7,1
      Processor Name:       Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:      2.4 GHz
      Number of Processors: 1
      Total Number of Cores:        2
      L2 Cache:     4 MB
      Memory:       4 GB
      Bus Speed:    800 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:     IM71.007A.B03
      SMC Version (system): 1.21f4
      Serial Number (system):       W8*******X89
      Hardware UUID:        00000000-0000-1000-8000-001B639688F7
    Anyone claiming that Mavericks is not at fault, is plain and simple WRONG, in DENIAL or LYING.  There is absolutely NO doubt in my mind any longer, that the problem was indeed Mavericks getting installed on the machine and messing with the hardware on a level where it should never happen. If someone working at Apple would like to purchase/replace my iMac in order to test it and figure out that this is a REAL problem, they are welcome to do so. I think it is more than guaranteed that the damage caused by this Mavericks nightmare installation will never be recovered, nor will the time and work lost ever be compensated, but I would actually like Apple to acknowledge their responsibility and failure to address this issue in a professional and responsible way.
    IF Mavericks was NOT at fault, then someone should explain the logic behind the machine physically burning components shortly after the installation of Mavericks, and even when the SDD had been wiped clean with no OS, it was still overheating and shutting off, until it could finally have ML installed... and at that point it was cured and has worked flawlessly ever since.  Not a single hiccup, no over heating, no problems.
    My offer to sell/replace the iMac stands if Apple is really interested in looking at this SERIOUS issue with Mavericks.  This is NOT a minor issue they should expect simply goes away, or will be ignored by people who experience their machines BURNING to pieces.
    On my MBA and MBP Mavericks is not causing any problems, so it is not "all bad", but for the iMac it meant total annihilation.
    Anyone who has installed Mavericks on their iMac of similar age as mine, having rebooting and overheating problems: REMOVE the Mavericks installation ASAP and get ML on it before it goes up in flames!
    Other Mac's have been reported having the rebooting/overheating problems as well, although I have not noted down which builds those were.  The problem is REAL and COSTLY for those who experience it.... both time-wise and in terms of lost time/work.
    Hopefully this will help others from getting the same terrible experience as I got, and save some computers from burning up.

  • Why Mac Help doesn't work after installing Leopard?

    After installing Leopard Mac Help shows a untitled window and after few seconds it disappear.

    Actually no. I'm working on the same environment before installing Leopard. No firewall...but I'm working from China where a massive Great Firewall is controlled by the government. That case I shouldn't be the only one.

  • Arch linux doesn't boot after installing AMD ATI Catalyst

    I have a laptop which has a integrated graphic card intel 4th generation (4600) and an AMD ATI R9 m265x (hybrid Intel/AMD graphics card) so I have just installed AMD ATI Catalyst proprietary ones by following
    AMD Catalyst ArchWiki.
    I have used "Installing from the unofficial repository" method so in my pacman.conf I have added below entry for [catalyst-stable]:
    [catalyst-stable]
    Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/catalyst/$arch
    ## Mirrors, if the primary server does not work or is too slow:
    #Server = http://70.239.162.206/catalyst-mirror/repo/catalyst/$arch
    #Server = http://mirror.rts-informatique.fr/archlinux-catalyst/repo/catalyst/$arch
    #Server = http://mirror.hactar.bz/Vi0L0/catalyst/$arch
    Then I have update pacman's database and install below packages:
    catalyst-hook
    catalyst-utils-pxp
    lib32-catalyst-utils-pxp
    (No need to install catalyst-total-pxp as I have installed catalyst-utils-pxp)
    After installing it, I have configured the driver, configuring X using below command:
    # aticonfig --initial
    In order to use PowerXpress support I have installed catalyst-utils-pxp package plus additional lib32-catalyst-utils-pxp.
    To perform a switch into Intel's IGP I have also installed the mesa-libgl  package and Intel's drivers: xf86-video-intel  and intel-dri .
    I have enable the automatic update by enabling the catalyst-hook.service with below commands since it automatically rebuilds the fglrx modules while the system shuts down or reboots (so I haven't to do it manually each time kernel is updated using Catalyst-generator):
    # systemctl enable catalyst-hook
    # systemctl start catalyst-hook
    And finally I have blacklisted radeon module by creating "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklisted.conf" file which content is:
    blacklist radeon
    and also I have ensured that fglrx line is added in "/etc/modules-load.d/Catalyst.conf" file.
    To avoid problems, I have rebuilt the fglrx module by doing (I know it is not necessary as it is done by catalyst-hook):
    catalyst_build_module all
    Once I reboot, arch linux does not boot. Last lines printed out are below and then it freezes:
    Starting temp files linker to catalyst...
    Starting Catalyst event Daemon...
    [ OK ] Started Catalyst event Daemon
    Starting Catalyst's fglrx kernel' module builder...
    [ OK ] Started temp files linker for catalyst.
    [ OK ] Started Catalyst's fglrx kernel' modue builder.
    [ OK ] Started gnome Display manager.
    [ OK ] Started Network manager.
    [ OK ] Reached target Multi-User system.
    [ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface.
    [ OK ] Reached target Network.
    I have tried to put nomodeset as a kernel parameter but it does not work. Also, after reading ArchWiki, I have noticed that it is recommended to don't do this as I am using catalyst-utils-pxp because intel driver needs it so I have removed nomodeset parameter from kernel but It continues not working.
    Any ideas?
    Package versions:
    Kernel version 3.17.6-1-ARCH
    catalyst-hook 14.12-1
    catalyst-utils-pxp 14.12-1
    lib32-catalyst-utils-pxp 14.12-1
    xorg-server 1.16.2.901-1
    xf86-video-intel 2.99.916-3

    FInally I managed to boot arch linux.
    I had to downgrade xorg-server from 1.16.2.901-1 to 1.15.2-1.
    It seems there is a problem with Catalyst 14.12-1 and xorg-server 1.16.2.901-1.
    Also I had to replace desktop manager from gdm to lightdm as gdm raises segmentation faults using xorg-server versions 1.16.2.901-1 and 1.15.2-1.
    Finally I had to add an entry in pacman.conf:
    [xorg115]
    Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/xorg115/$arch
    ## Mirrors, if the primary server does not work or is too slow:
    #Server = http://mirror.rts-informatique.fr/archlinux-catalyst/repo/xorg115/$arch
    #Server = http://mirror.hactar.bz/Vi0L0/xorg115/$arch
    Then performs following actions:
    1)  # pacman -Syuu catalyst-hook catalyst-utils-pxp
    2) Uninstall all the packages xf86* such as xf86-video-intel, xf86-input-evdev,  xf86-input-synaptics, etc.
    3) Install the packages uninstalled in step 2 and install them again using xorg115 repo, for example, # pacman -S xorg115/xf86-video-intel xorg115/xf86-input-evdev xorg115/xf86-input-synaptics
    I have put a comment here.
