ITunes doesn't understand Uninstall - please help
Seems that itunes wants to be in the system eternally.
itunesmobiledevice service needs to die a horrible death how do I remove it?
Where do I log a BUG on the uninstaller?
Well...
I see the help there is for this subject - no one has gotten an answer for this.
In my WinXP system I did the following:
1) Rebooted to "save mode"
2) Located and deleted directories named "Apple Application Support" and "Mobile Device Support"
3) rebooted to "normal"
4) Brought up regedit
5) Looked for the word itunes (Ctrl-F)
6) If it said that I deleted the registry entry
7) Looked for the word Apple (got a lot of 'Applet' in this search - kinda annoying)
8) If it said that I deleted the registry entry
Since I shouldn't have any other Apple software on this system then I was safe.
If you want to retain the quicktime junk then you may want to be more selective. However, it's better to let the native Windows framework do what Apple is trying to manage with it.

Itunes doesn't recognize Ipod -- Please Help!
Greetings,
As the subject says, I cannot get my itunes to recognize my ipod. My ipod shows up fine under "my computer," and works normally everywhere else. I am running itunes 7.0.2, and Windows XP. I am constantly getting the error message about the ipod service module needs to close down. I've tried everything at the Apple support page, including, but not necessarily limited to --
1. Uninstalling/reinstalling itunes and Quicktime.
2. Resetting my ipod
3. Using msconfig to manually restart the ipod service module. This doesn't work because as soon as itunes opens, the service module shuts down.
4. Changing the USB connection I use to connect the ipod to my PC.
5. Restarting the PC with everything but itunes turned off.
Short of reinstalling Windows, something I really don't want to do, I am out of ideas. If I weren't already going bald, I'd be pulling my hair out.
Any ideas? Please?
Thanks,
JasonAnything here of help?

I'm getting an error message on Windows 8. Missing apple application support. Itunes will not install. Please help!!, I'm getting an error message on Windows 8. Missing apple application support. Itunes will not install. Please help!!
You probably need to either uninstall and reinstall itunes or to download the apple application support by itself
you can download the itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/ here
then to do a complete uninstall / reinstall follow these instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
you could also use 7zip to extract the individual installer for apple application support from the itunes setup file http://www.7-zip.org -

Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next.

my ipad is on an infinite loop. I used ios7 for a few days and then did updates on some of my apps. that's when the infinite loop started. I have tried pressing the power and home button at the same time, but it doesn't work. Please help!
I even tried some hints posted for ios6 (turn off Ipad, holding home button and plugging in power cord at the same time and then releasing the home button)
I did manage to get a different screen that shows the itunes icon and a power cord, but nothing happens.You were on the right track. You got the connect to iTunes screen and you ended to use iTujes to restore your iPad. Try recovery mode again.
Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad. -

There is no free download to 10.5? I was able to download a 10.5.1 but that wasn't helpful since it required a 10.5 to be downloaded first. Any suggestions?
As provided twice.
You MUST buy the upgrade.
It is never free to update to a new OS. -

I have windows 7 and every time I try to play or add a song. It says itunes has stopped working. Please help this is frustrating.
a further message box states that Data Execution Prevention has closed the program.
Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes? -
Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).

Trying to reset/restore my daughters ipod, but no matter what advice I get, nothing works. There is no summary tab on itunes to restore/reset. PLEASE HELP!
Without knowing current status of the iPod:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

[Acrobat X Standard] The tool box doesn't work. Please help!
[Acrobat X Standard] The tool box doesn't work. Please help!
I have a Acrobat X Standard.
When I open the documents, I can't click the tool box. but when I don't open the documents, I can use the tool box.
To solve the problem,
1. reinstall the menu.
2. reboot the computer.
But, It still didn't work.
Plz help!!Was it AA X Std that you had these options in (sorry, I only have Pro)? If it was the trial (that is Pro), it may be that Std does not have to feature. Under XI at the Adobe site, there is a comparison of features between Std and Pro that might give you a hint.
There is also an option to turn on or hide many tools. For me there is a small icon just above the tools...comment titles. If you select that it give a list of tools you can display. Often, several are not displayed by default. How you lost them is another things, but it is getting them that is the basic question. -
I upgraded to iOS 7 yesterday on my iphone and now none of my apps shows me any new message and when i open the apps it says "Connect to itunes for push notifications". Please help!!!
Same here. I don't know how to solve the problem, but I figured out a way to close the app without re-starting or resetting the phone. If you click ok and then press the home button twice really fast before the dialog box shows back up, you can put the phone in multi-tasking mode and close the app without having the shut the phone off or reset it. Anxiously awaiting the fix for this since I have several apps I use that I can access at the moment.

I cannot open the new email icon for 10.6.8 including the latest security update. My old "Stamp" icon email won't let me in either indicating that the new OS version doesn't work. Please help. I have spend over 4 hours installing and reinstalling updates, etc. and I don't know where to go from here.....
Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
The solution has been to:
1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:
Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
