ITunes loads but doesn't appear

I recently upgraded to the newest version of iTunes (I think 10) and upgraded my iOS for my iPhone to 5 when I reconnected my phone iTunes would not open to get backup files for my iPhone so I was forced to set my phone up as a new iPhone. Yet, iTunes still doesn't open. I can see it in the processes tab of the task manager yet it won't appear on my screen. I've run out of options and read every link on my google searches and apple help pages. Can anyone suggest something? Things I've tried
1. uninstalling iTunes, reinstalling and then restarting my PC
2. Right clicking iTunes > Run as > new user
3. Setting up a new user profile
4. ending iTunes process in task manager and restarting iTunes...appears in task manager as iTunes.exe but does not appear on screen
5. changing startup and services options in msconfig - bonjour, apple mobile device and itunes all ticked
6. right clicking iTunes > Properties > fiddling with user permissions
Connecting my iPhone doesn't seem to work either. I get the 2 chimes when I connect but nothing happens...not even the windows what would you like to do dialog. Has iTunes lost permissions along the way somewhere?
Hoping someone can help!

Hi,
check the following things:
1st: Where are you bouncing to, and in which format? Make sure you have selected the correct format, the correct filename and that the filename is the same in the ID3 Tag settings menu within the mp3 bounce dialog, so that you can find the song later in iTunes.
2nd: Look if the song has been added to iTunes with another filename. Also check that in iTunes the option is enabled to copy the new songs into the iTunes Library when importing.
Make sure iTunes is running when you do your bounce.
report back, and we'll see..

  • Itunes loads but doesn't run music

    I've updated to 7.0.2. Whenever I try and play a song in iTunes, the song is has the small speaker symbol by it, the song looks like it should play but then acts like it's in pause mode. Every song I try to play acts the same way. Can somebody help me?

    Whenever I try and play a song in iTunes, the song is has the small speaker symbol by it, the song looks like it should play but then acts like it's in pause mode. Every song I try to play acts the same way.
    those symptoms can sometimes be caused by a subtly-damaged QuickTime. (itunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)
    so let's try swapping out your QuickTime.
    head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and start itunes again. does it play properly now?

  • I cannot activate a ringtone which I prepared with Iringer. It appears in iTunes under sounds but doesn't appear in sounds on the iPhone!!!

    I cannot activate a ringtone which I prepared with Iringer. It appears in iTunes under sounds but doesn't appear in sounds on the iPhone!!!

    if you created a ringtone, it should appear in the tone menu in itunes.
    Is the ringtone 30 seconds or less?
    Also I would check the iringer support site to resolve your issue.

  • Downloaded incompatible app that says is installed on iTunes but doesn't appear on iPad. How to uninstall?

    Ended up accidentally installing Monster Hunter on my iPad and now I can't delete it from iTunes since the icon is blank. On iTunes it says it's been installed but doesn't appear anywhere on my iPad. I've checked in the Usage and used third party software to try and find it. How do I uninstall it from iTunes so it says it's not downloaded anymore?

    If you connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and select its Apps tab, then in the listbox of apps what does the button next to that app say ? If 'remove' click on the button and it should change to 'will remove', and then click the 'apply' button bottom right of the screen to remove it. Or if you find the app in the screen mockups on that Apps tab and hover your mouse pointer over the app, does it get an 'x' on its top left corner for deleting it ?
    Or, and if you haven't already done it, then you could try a soft-reset and see if you can delete it directly on the iPad after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • The new U2 album shows purchased via the itunes store on my windows computer, but doesn't appear in my library

    the new U2 album shows purchased via the itunes store on my windows computer, but doesn't appear in my library

    On your Windows computer, go to the iTunes Store. On the right column of the iTunes Store under QUICK LINKS, you'll see an option called Purchased. Click on that and you'll see all items that are tied to your iTunes Store account. You should see the U2 album there and you can download it from the cloud. You'll now have a copy stored on your Windows computer.

  • Where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar

    where is the photo tab in itunes? it doesn't appear in the itunes sidebar, I am trying to remove photos from my ipad by restricting them from appearing after synch.

    cjmuth wrote:
    I was struggling with this too - but seem to have found the issue.  It appears the photo synch option in iTunes isn't available unless the photos are out of synch.
    This is incorrect.
    The Photos tab is always available when you have your iDevice connected.
    First open iPhoto, move the photos you want to get rid of to the trash, then close iPhoto.
    No one seems to want to delete the photos from iPhoto/computer.
    They just don’t want them to sync to the iPad.

  • When i go onto iPhoto and choose a photo to send via email, i click send and the photo is sent and received but doesn't appear in my email sent items ?

    when i go onto iPhoto and choose a photo to send via email, i click send and the photo is sent and received but doesn't appear in my email sent items ?

    This is not the iPhoto forum. In any case in iPhoto>Preferences select Mail or whatever email program you are using to email as the desired choice. You are probably sending directly through iPhoto.

  • Itunes says there's an update but doesn't appear in app store

    Anybody else get this?  I have been getting this for a while with iTunes updates...  There will be updates available but they never appear in the App Store....

    Thanks for the question. That definitely sounds weird and frustrating! Let’s see if we can resolve this issue. To begin, try out the steps in the following resource:
    Mac App Store: Cannot update App Store purchases or updates do not seem available - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203604
    My startup volume was not listed on the Privacy tab in Spotlight.
    Additional information:
    Troubleshooting the Mac App Store - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203421
    Sorry, but that link was useless.  None of the suggestions in that link are valid. 
    If an app purchased on one Mac does not open after being copied to another Mac
    I did not "copy" iTunes from one Mac to another.
    If you are unable to find an app you purchased from the App Store
    I didn't buy iTunes in the app store, it was pre-installed on my MBP just like everyone else's.  And I don't have a problem finding iTunes, i use it all the time.
    If the Mac App Store application was removed after installing the Mac OS X v10.6.6 Combo Software Update
    Don't even have a clue what this refers to.  I am running MAC OS X v10.10.2.
    If nothing happens after clicking Buy when purchasing an app
    This is irrelevant.  Again, I did not purchase it from the App Store.
    If downloading an app is interrupted
    Again, irrelevant, i have not even downloaded it yet and none of the versions i ever downloaded have ever been interrupted.
    Mac App Store: Unresponsive after clicking Updates icon - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203425
    And this one?  Where in the world did you come up with this one?  I do not use boot camp and do not have NTFS files that are causing this....
    Sorry, but that was the MOST unhelpful post I have ever received here in the communities.....

  • Want to remove a podcast that shows on the ipod itself but doesn't appear in the library under itunes

    I have a podcats on my ipod touch that doesn't appear in the podcast library that I want to remove.  Deleting all the podcasts & replacing them with new podcasts doesn't help.  Any ideas?

    Hi
    Go to the apple.com to download the latest iTunes and ipod updater and install accorindingly, then do a Reset of your iPod i.e. Press "Menu"+"Select" keys. Connect it with your iBook and open iPod updater, hope it will allow you to do a Restore. If failed, then press "Select"+"Play" keys to put your iPod in Disk Mode, connect it back with your iBook, open the iTunes and you will able to see your iPod there. Then open the ipod updater and do a restore. You may need to do a few attempts in order to achieve the solution

  • ITunes starts but doesn't open

    After upgrade to iTunes v7.7, whenever I start the program I see the library-loading progress bar, but then the iTunes window itself doesn't open; however, according to the Windows Task Manager, itunes.exe is nevertheless running. No error message of any kind is displayed at any point.
    How can I get the blessed thing to show itself?

    Although this is sounding a bit like a library file issue, other problems can cause similar symptoms. The following document provides a good structure for sifting through the alternatives:
