Itunes not loading correctly - does not display correctly

since my powerbook came back from repair 3 weeks ago, about every other time i try to start up itunes, it displays totally strangely. Basically, it looks like just the text displays, but not the program interface. it overlays over whatever was already on my screen. so basically there are random names of songs all over my screen, and every time i click the mouse somewhere on the screen the mess gets overlayed with even more text. i took a screen shot of it, but i guess you can't post images on here. What is going on here and how do i fix it??

I would be surprised if this was a general problem with the powerbook though, as I have only had this problem with itunes. As soon as I quit itunes, the problem goes away and the computer behaves normally. I've also never had this problem with any other program on my computer.
I'll put a post in the powerbook forum though later tonight about it.
How do I uninstall iTunes without deleting my music library? I'm thinking reinstalling the program might be the best first step since i have no idea what else to do.

Downloadhelper 4.9.22 is not working; dwhelper forum does not load, bugzilla does not load

Version 4.9.22 gives 0kb files. There is no apparent solution in this forum. The Downloadhelper support forum page does not load. The buzilla link on the Downloadhelper add-on page does not load.
Is there an actual solution for this?

Here is the correct bug report, for anyone that cares:

Will not load. Does not even try to load. Using Explorer now

Have Firefox icon on desk top. For two days, when I click, will not even try to load. Nothing happens.

Not sure how this support works. Are we waiting for another user to give us an idea of how we solve our problem or is there a support staff who will reply to our question? I am really having a time learning how to use Internet Explorer and would rather have Mozilla back.

Lync Web App will not load and does not error out

Hi,
Recently I've been receiving invites to Lync 15 meetings. I am able to join the meetings and things work fine until somebody shares their desktop or a presentation. Then I get a message saying Windows firewall has blocked an app and asks if I want
to allow the Lync Web App to run. I click OK and it appears to begin loading. The app doesn't load, I can still hear audio on the meeting but all the rest of the Lync app freezes except for the spinning circle wheel telling me it is loading.
When I look in Task Manager, I can see the Lync Web App running with a steady stream of I/O. But the entire Lync meeting will not render. If I kill the Lync Web App from Task Manager, then the Lync meeting immediately works.
System: Win 7 pro 64, IE 9, AMD Athalon dual core chip, 4 GB RAM, tons of disk space, DSL 700K connection
Any ideas?
Thanks,
JAS.

Hi There,
Thanks a lot for reporting this issue. And I am sorry that you are hitting this issue while attending Lync meetings. Following details will help us diagnose it further -
1) Do you have Lync 2010 or Lync 2013 client installed on the machine?
2) Do you get this issue again and again when you join the meeting or it was one-off?
3) When you killed "Lync Web App" from task manager, was audio flowing through even after that? Were you still attending the meeting from the browser?
4) How much time did you wait when UI was showing "Loading" until you killed the Lync Web App from task manager?
Thanks.

ICloud preferences do not load; mail does not exit ; safari does not exit;pages does not allow to open file from cloud

Since Mavericks I am experiencing problems most probably related to iCloud:
the iCloud preference pane takes minutes to open; mail tasks hang on iCloud mail account ; Pages hangs before displaying list of icloud files.
I have managed to stop the problems by disabling the iCloud keychain - so it may well be related to that.
Any similar experiences or even solutions ?

HT1347 I have an mp3 DVD with episodes of Gunsmoke. iTunes imports them, but does not sort them correctly by date or episode. One file name is GS 52-04-26 001 Billy the Kid.mp3

I have an mp3 DVD with episodes of Gunsmoke. iTunes imports them, but does not sort them correctly by date or episode. One file name is GS 52-04-26 001 Billy the Kid.mp3. iTunes sorts them by month/day/year. How can I fix that?

The weird thing is, it worked before. I encoded all the videos previously and had them all listed and didn't encounter this problem, but I noticed I'd forgotten to decomb/detelecine the videos so I deleted everything and re-encoded it all. AFter filling the tags out and setting poster frames again I was thinking of making life easier by just pasting the same artwork for every episode, so I did, but didn't like the results so I deleted it again (I selected every video, used Get Info and pasted the artwork that way).
I think it was after this that the problem started to occur. In any case I've been through every episode and made sure the name, series, episode and episode id fields are all filled in with incremental values and they are. I even made sure the Sort Name field was filled in on every video. But this didn't work either.
So, thinking another restart was needed I deleted every video again. Re-encoded them all, again. Set the tags for every video and poster frame again. Finished it all off nicely, checked cover flow and was highly annoyed to find it was STILL showing the same two pieces of art work for every video as shown in that image I posted.
Ultimately, I wouldn't care so much that cover flow is screwing up like this as I always intended to sort by program anyway so it would only ever display one piece of artwork for an entire series of videos, however where-as when it was working it picked the artwork for the first episode of a series to display, its instead picking one of the latter episodes. I can't seem to find any way of choosing what artwork I want displayed.

my kids enter wronge passwords several times until the ipad says"connect to iTune" but the ipad does not appear on the iTune.I know the correct password.

You've connected the iPad via cable to your computer, and your computer's iTunes is up-to-date ? If it's icon isn't showing then try one of these troubleshooting pages :
PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
If the iPad is disabled then you'll need to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to your backup

WLC Captive Portal not loading images or via HTTP correctly

Hi All,
I have a strange issue I'm hoping someone can shed some light on.
I have a CT2504 at a customer site which does not load the captive portal page correctly nor will it load via HTTP as opposed to HTTPS.
So for starters I did what I do with all my CT2504's (which work fine), I configured my Guest network to authenticate via the default captive portal. I then disabled HTTPS and SSH and enabled HTTP managment followed by rebooting the controller.
On boot, logging into the WLC management GUI is automatically presented via HTTP as expected.
However when clients access the Guest network they are redirected to the Web Authorisation via HTTPS instead of HTTP, any ideas?
In addtion to the above the captive portal page does not display correctly.
The preview via the controller works fine, but the client is presented with a page with broken links to the images i.e. the blue strip at the top and the Cisco logo on the right, any clue what's happening here?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gary

Thanks Gray. I am glad it worked.

The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

Outlook 2010 loads but does not display on monitor

Very strange problem. When I click on Outlook 2010, the splash screen appears and it seems to load, but does not appear on my monitor. Task Managerr shows the application is running, so I guess it is there somewhere. All the other Office 2010 programs work
fine.
I am running Win 7 Professional 32bit, dual core 2.7 cpu, 4 gb ram. Everything else works fine. I was having a problem with Outlook 2003 crashing and had not tried Outlook 2010.
Have the same problem in Safe mode.
I did run scanpst.exe and it only found (and repaired) a few files that it felt were not important. I transferred my .pst file to my wife's computer and her copy of Outlook 2010 opened it fine. I used her computer to delete all items in the
"deleted" file. My total pst file is about 142mb. I have defragmented this hard disk. I don't have a Win7 installation disk because I downloaded the Office 2010 file and used a legitimate key to activate it
I think there is a simple answer. Appreciate your help in finding it.

I found my problem.
“Add-ons” were the source of the problem.
I believe there was a conflict between two programs:
Norton’s Security Suite and AnVir Security Suite.
Both were trying to scan my incoming e-mail.
I uninstalled AnVir, reset Outlook back to its original configuration (i.e. reversed all the changes I described above), and my problem is gone.
Not sure why this problem took so long to appear as both programs had been install for at least a month without issues.
I used AnVir and ZoneAlarm for over a year together without issues.
However, about one month ago, I uninstalled ZoneAlarm and installed Norton’s Security Suite.
In any event, uninstalling AnVir solved the problem.
Uninstalling Norton’s and keeping AnVir would probably work as well.

ITunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows - Fix??

Hi everyone,
I had issue after issue with the latest iTunes update (12.1.1) not working on my windows 7. It simply would not lunch when clicking on the shortcut to open.
After a fair bit of searching I found this alternative version which seemed to do the trick and now it works:
iTunes 12.1.1.4 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - iTunes64Setup.exe(2015-02-18)

The "for older video cards" installer - which, like most prior "64 bit" versions of iTunes, is actually a 32 bit application with a 64 bit installer - may be a useful fallback if the full 64 bit version does not install or run correctly. Although 12.1.1.4 is a major improvement over 12.1.0.71, there are clearly still some lurking incompatibilities with some 64 bit Windows systems/components. It is, however, a little misleading to say that "iTunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows" - in many cases it works fine without switching to the alternative version. I have the full 64-bit version of 12.1.1.4 running on three systems - two Windows 7 and one Windows 8.1 - no issues with either installation or operation on any of them.

Trying to update my Itunes software, now it does not want to work at all, givin strange error messages.

Trying to update my Itunes software, now it does not want to work at all, givin strange error messages.
First, when trying to sync ipod touch to Itunes, nothing happened. After that, Itunes suggested downloading and installing updates but now updates will not finish installation correctly and launch error messages. Any ideas?
TKS !

These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736B3s, or a different error code? If they're different, what codes are you getting in Windows Update?

I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?

Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
Please can anybody help.
Cheers,
Dan_nz.
