Itunes screen is pink
I just upgraded to the itunes 8.0 & my window is pink & purple. My husband has the same on his computer & his window is the normal white & gray. My OS is windows Vista. How do I get my screen to go back to the normal color? The pink is driving me crazy. It is hard to look at make my eyes hurt. Can anyone help me?
Try changing the monitor's bitdepth to 32 bit from the Control Panel.

My start up screen (the one with the apple) is lime green and all screens are pink and green. Some parts of screen still have white. It happened suddenly. What is this?
Hey there,
Thank you for your question. It sounds like you are seeing some graphical issues when you boot your iPad at the Apple logo. I had a couple of recomendations for you to try. First, reset your iPad:
Reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

You can also try backing up the phone to iTunes and then restoring from that backup as well with this article to help determine if the issue is software or hardware related:

Itunes background occasionally pink?!
Hi, my itunes seems to be working fine, no problems syncing or downloading etc, but the background of the itunes screen in all menus is pink everytime i log on, and this also affects windows in the itunes store that should have a white background. also the side bar on the left with the menu options is not right - its a darker grey and i cant read the words on it. a couple of times when adding artwork the screen has fixed itself (ie the background around the album artworks has gone to the normal dark grey/black) but i cant seem to fix it manually.
any ideas?Make sure that in your Display Settings colour is set to 32 bit. See this link for details: iTunes - Pink iTunes window under iTunes XP/Vista

Hi My Name is Travis Bannerman. I have been using itunes for roughly 3 years. I went and opened itunes today and found that in my music library it is pink and also parts of the itunes store is now pink when it should be either blue or whitte. I was wondering is there something wrong and if so how is it able to be fixed. I havent experienced any music missing or problems with itunes i am just worried that stuff may happen in the future.
ThanksHello Polydorus,
Thanks so much. I have been using Itunes with the Pink screen and a black navigator for months. I could not believe an itunes upgrade would require the use to search and search and search to find and a solution to this problem.
Why Apple would require a user to change the display from 16 to 32 is beyond me.
There was NO indication by Apple that there were any problems with XP that needed to be resolved after installing 8.0. But, who in the business world today cares about the customer.
You post with the link was very helpful. Thanks again! -
ITunes page is pink..words Library, Store, and Playlists all blurry
recently all my music on itunes was deleted but i was able to load all of my music back onto the itunes itself, being that it was still saved on my hard drive, but the itunes page is pink...then i maximize and it turns white (normal), but then i restore down the window and it goes pink again...and the category words...Library..Store..and Playlists are all blurry...this makes me think something is wrong with the itunes. i have tried deleting the itunes program and reinstalling many times and it wont fix the problem...this all happened after i did that "genius" crap..on the latest version. i even tried installing a previous version of itunes and i got an error message saying "file *blank blank* was created with a newer version of itunes"...or something like that, and it wouldnt even let me access itunes.
so i had to reload the laterst version again with the "genius" thing...and now i have a pink screen with blurry words..
any suggestions?For pink iTunes - try setting 32 bit colour quality.
Right click in the Desktop, select Properties>>Settings.
I am not clear where you stand with the other issues your raised. -
Color of lists on itunes screen
I just installed itunes 8.0.1.11 and now the lists in my library and playlists on my itunes screen are alternating pink and purple. I don't know why it did that and how to change it back to white/grey. Did anyone else have that problem and know how to fix it?
Go to the Windows XP Start menu > Control Panel > Appearance and Themes (in Category view) > Display > Settings tab and make sure Colour Display is set at Highest (32 bit): iTunes - Pink iTunes window under iTunes XP/Vista

My ipod touch 4th gen was given to me by a friend. It worked fine until it got the recent update ios6. when i went to install it gave me a black screen that had the connect to itunes symbol.I plugged it in and it instantly told me to restore my ipod. All i want to do is be able to use my ipod again so i said yes. Half way through each time it tells me there is an error something is not connected or timed out and it stops.I have tried holding down home/sleep button and rebooting but each time it brings me strait back to plug into itunes screen and does not give me slide to shut off option. I have tried plugging it into a different computer (my home and my lap top) i have plugged it into the wall. i have done everything i have seen imaginable.I tried calling apple one guy said he'd help even though it wasnt under warrenty but had to call me back and (surprise) he never did and the second before he would connect me to help said i needed to pay 20 bucks. I dont have the money to do phone service and the genius bar is an hour drive away. Is there anything i can try that i havent yet? Or a way to completely shut it down and turn it on like brand new out of the box? Im really stressing out over this because ive never had to deal with this before. Please help!!

The guy at the Apple store said "Now thats a Brick" "I've never seen or heard of one this bad!"
I bought the phone with little to no info on it. I was told that it froze after several failed attempts at loading IOS 6.
Now... It will only turn on if plugged into wall, it will show black, then apple, then "connect to itunes" screen and thats it. As soon as I unplug, it dies. If I try power off, it turns back on and freezes in same place. Reset, same. And unabale to Factory restore cuz I cant unplug from wall. Im asuming its in dfu, nothing works.
When connected to USB,no power, no response from pc (win xp) or Itunes. Although... I swear I heard pc beap once as though it "found new hardware" but on inspection, Nothing.
My theories: 1) Battery is hooped. ( but I was told it worked fine a month ago) The longest I have had it charging is 4hrs and i died as soon as removed.
2) VCC conductor. Would explain USB issue.
3) The phone was "jailbroke" and IOS6 did not like that. Isnt there programs to reverse this?
4) IOS6 interupted, then phone got factory restored. Is it possible there is No "OS" on it?
I never touched an Iphone untill 2 days ago, and I have read and tried every troubshooting solution I could find. If I can fix this I'll be an expert!

Most of the songs on my iPod Classic no longer show up on iTunes on my laptop. I deleted iTunes & installed the latest version but this did not change anything. For example on 1 playlist I have 66 songs but only 1 shows on the iTunes screen. Thanks you for any help.

how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?
Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
What am I doing wrong ? -

Mac Mini and LCD TV - Screen looks pink
I am using a Fujitsu-Siemens Myrica V27-1 LCD TV as the monitor of my Mac Mini. They are connected by a VGA cable through the Minis DVI/VGA adapter.
The screen looks pink although the Mini detects the Myrica correctly. When I open Displays from the system settings (hope everything is translated right since I am using the German version of OS X 10.4.5), switch to the colors tab there is already a color profile called Myrica V27-1.
I tried to calibrate again starting from that profile - but with no success. Still the white looks pink. The TV as such works perfect.
Has anybody a hint? Could it be a solution to use DVI to DVI (The TV also has a DVI input)?
Thanks in advance
FalkIt was indeed the VGA connection. I bought a DVI to DVI cable and now everything looks great.

My ios update keeps getting stuck on the Restoring iPhone software stage. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it again, but still nothing. Now I can't even use my phone as it shows the plug into iTunes screen. Please help!!!! Thanks,
A Restore first downloads a new copy of iOS to your computer. On a slow Internet connection this can take a long time. How fast is your connection? How long would you expect it to take to download 900 MB?
That's assuming nothing is interfering with the download. Some firewalls and antivirus programs will block the download or slow it down. So you should temporarily disable your security software. Security software can also block the update after the iOS download is complete.
