ITunes Not Working After I Restored My iPod Touch

I went on iTunes and clicked "restore" which caused some error message to pop up that told me to re install iTunes. Thus putting me on the currently 4 hour path of trying to get iTunes to work. First it said I needed avfoundationcf.dll or something. Then after downloading a bunch of stuff that claimed to want to help but repeatedly tried to charge me. Then the error messages starting telling me that I needed some dll files. I downloaded all the files that were asked of me from a website. The last file, icuin36.dll, installed normally (I assume) but the next error pop up box told me this:
iTunes.exe - Bad Image
C:\Windowa\system32\icuin36.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.
Then a second pop up box appears that says:
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re install iTunes
Error 9 (Windows Error 193)
This is where I am currently stuck. Any help would be dearly appreciated as I am on the verge of an aneurysm. Be sure to dumb down everything you say as I'm pretty stupid when it comes to computers.

If the music play OK in iTunes on your computer
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
- Reset all settings      
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                                
iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • HT4972 previously used apps won't work after system restore?ipod touch 2nd gen.?

    My son forgot his passcode so I had to restore his ipod touch, 2nd gen.  After the restore, many of his apps no longer work.  He had Netflix, Facebook, Angry Birds.  They now all say they require ios 4.3 or 5.0.  Does anyone know how to get these apps back on his ipod?  thanks!

    Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

  • IPod Touch iOS 4.2.1, Mac OS 10.6.8. ICal will not sync after a restore of iPod Touch. What's up?

    iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1) second generation; Mac (OS 10.6.8). After a restore, the iCal no longer syncs, Contacts do not sync, etc. What gives?

    Greetings,
    Sounds like something is wrong with the sync history.
    Troubleshooting:
    1.) Backup all your data:
    Backup your iPhone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Backup your computer Addressbook: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad961.html
    Backup your computer iCal: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966
    Backup your calendars on MobileMe.
    Follow http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4226
    Go to "backing up data" and then "Backing up from me.com/calendar"
    2.) Reset the computer's sync services and then restart the computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
    3.) Plug in the iPhone and attempt a sync.
    If that does not resolve the issue, where is the information "good", on the iPod Touch or the computer and are you using MobileMe to sync or do you just plug in your usb cable.
    Hope that helps.

  • Itunes not working after system restore

    hey i searched this and found nothing helpful.
    i did a system restore before and now my itunes won't open. it shows a message that tells me it can't open. i've reinstalled and uninstalled and everything i can think of...
    how can i fix this and make itunes work again?

    If you have an HP, you need to goto Hp.com and download a patch for your model of PC, alot of there PCs have issues with iTUnes after using there software to do a restore. If you have another brand, check there site.
    You can also try uninstalling iTunes AND quicktime, disabling antivirus and downloading/installing the latest iTunes from apple.com

    What worked for me was to uninstall from the control panel in this order: Thanks to another post on this board... this worked... link to the discussion here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5817584?tstart=0

    I had problems uninstalling Apple Mobile Support, I had to repair it first before I could uninstall it. You will have to restart the computer after all the uninstalls, and before reinstalling ITunes. I reinstalled ITunes from the Apple website afterwards (fresh download) ... everything works for me now that I have done this.

    Did try to restore "as new device" without using the backup after that?
    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo coes back again?

  • AirPrint not working on my 3rd gen iPod touch

    AirPrint not working on my 3rd gen iPod touch.
    It works on my iPhone and ipad2.
    I have a new HP printer.

    AirPring requires a 3G or later iPod.  Are you sure you have a 3G iPod?  A 2G iPod can only go to iOS 4.2.1 and that is what you say you have. If yours is an 8 or 16 GB one it is a 2G. A 32 GB can be either. See:

  • HT201272 I lost an app after I restored my iPod Touch and now I can't find it

    Before I restored my iPod I moved a majority of the songs I downloaded on the app to my computer. After I restored the iPod I downloaded the main apps I used, but I couldn't find the music app that I payed for months ago. I've looked through purchases All & Not On This iPod but I just can't find it. What can I do?

    If the app is no longer in your country's store then you won't be able to re-download it. Do you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes or on a backup of your downloads that you can use to re-sync it to your iPod ? Or if the app is still in the store, does it now need a higher iOS version than you have on your iPod ?

  • Do I have to purchase again the new upgrade after I restore my iPod touch?

  • Home Universal Dock is not working with my 3 gen iPod Touch

    I have the 64 gig iPod Touch. I also purchased the home universal dock DX-IPDR2. The iPod Touch TV setting is set to NTSC. With the iPod Touch in the dock and all cables connected corrrectly, there is no audio or video on the TV. Is this dock not compatiable with the third generation iPod Touch?

    An apple store rep just told me that multitasking is only enabled on 32GB or 64GB current generation ipod touch models. Thats a pretty sneaky way to sell your "current generation" 8GB models, call them latest gen, say in the press that ios4 multitasking will work on them, and then ziiiinngggggo, no multitasking if you only need 8GB of storage. oh, well, off to jailbreakland...

  • IPhone 4 ear speaker not working after 2 restores and cleaning the headphone socket.

    Hi,
    I know this problem is not uncommon, but here goes...
    I have an iPhone 4 which was running iOS 5.1.1 a few days ago when the ear speaker stopped working.  I cant hear the other person when I make or recieve a call, but nothing else is wrong with the phone.  It is 18 months old.
    I've searched the discussions and seen some of the suggestions.  I tried cleaning out the headphone socket, with no luck.  I then tried a full restore and update to iOS 6.  This appeared to have worked.  I tried 2 calls and I could hear the other person.  I then left the phone alone for a couple of hours and when I tried it again, it had stopped working again.
    I have since done another full restore but the speaker is still not working at all.  The fact that it worked after the first restore suggests it's something simple or software related but I have no idea what else to try other than getting it repaired in a shop.  The problem is I am in Japan where my network (Softbank) and an independent repair shop have both quoted me the equivalent of $176 / £110 to fix it.
    Does anyone know anything else I can try before I give in and end up shelling out this ridiculous cost for something that is probably a 20 minute fix?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have the exact same problem with my ear speaker after my IOS 6 upgrade. My speakers work, bluetooth works, the earphones work, but the ear speaker doesn’t work. I noticed this IMMEDIATELY after the upgrade was completed. I also have the following problems:
    -Very slow call connect time. 30 - 45 seconds just to connect is typical. Signal strength is 5 bars (ATT)
    -Problems attaching to known networks
    -Very slow internet browsing with many timeouts on both the ATT 3G service and known Wi-Fi networks.
    - My camera was missing after the IOS 6 upgrade. I restored that from Restrictions inside of the Settings App
    - Music was so screwed up it was easier to just restore it
    I went to the Apple store hoping to get some support. Between my wife, my son, and myself we have purchased 4 iPhones and an iPad over the last few years with plans to purchase another iPad in a month or so. So it’s not like I' not familiar with Apple Technology and their typical level of support.
    The individual who waited on me was rude and condescending. He insisted that all of the problems were hardware related or ATT’s fault, or my fault. He further asserted that IOS 6 had NOTHING to do with any of the problems. I pointed out that it would be quite a coincidence for my hardware to break, for ATT to have network problems, and for me to suddenly forget how to use an iPhone at the same exact moment that IOS 6 had been installed. He maintained his position and offered to sell me another phone.
    I don’t expect the folks in the store to reprogram the OS. Mistakes happen. I’m going to guess that Apple’s OS programmers are already working on a fix for many of the IOS 6 complaints that are easy to find on Google. Assigning blame to the customer and denying any responsibility is not a model for success or customer service. I’m sure Apple wouldn’t accept that kind of excuse from their component manufacturers and don’t think it is how they should deal with their customers. Further, Apple wants to own the device. They want to control the apps, the OS, battery, the delivery channel. I’m good with that so long as when there is a problem, they own that as well.
    And BTW… I’m not including the maps in my list of issues with IOS 6 because I kind of like the new maps and am willing to give Apple the benefit of the doubt. I believe that their map service will get a lot better in a hurry.

  • Itunes not working after upgrading to 7.4

    I just recently purchased the new ipod nano. In order to use it, you have to upgrade to itunes 7.4. I did this, but now when I click on my itunes icon, nothing happens. It thinks for a moment, but it will not open. I have tried to unistall and reinstall, but it will still not work. It appears as if the download was successful and my music library is still there, but it will not launch. Any suggestions?

    Yeah, that's happened to me a bunch, it's a pain the the arse. Delete your shortcut and create a new one.
    To do this navigate to the c:\program files\iTunes folder (assuming you've selected the default location) and find the iTunes.exe file using the right mouse button right click on it and you should get a menu with an option to create a shortcut. Once the shortcut is created you can drag it and drop it wherever you need, start menu, desktop or quick launch bar.
