Itunes unusable - crashing constantly since new operating system

Since upgrading to MAC OS X version 10.7.3, itunes has been crashing constantly.  It will not even open and is completely unusable.  Now Outlook is also crashing.  I use itunes with my ipad, ipod, ipod touch, kobo reader.  Any ideas? 

So keep us posted how you solve the problem. I have a iPod mount issue posted also. Doesn't seem to be a fix that I have found.
People have suggested resetting the iPod, which you lose all your music/files - but what makes me nervous is some people restore/reset and it still won't work!
There has to be an answer to this.
Let us know if you do take the iPod to Apple.

  • Scanner driver for Konica Minolta 1690MF since new operating system Maverick

    Scanner driver for Konica Minolta 1690MF will not work since new operating system Maverick.
    Update driver came from konica minolta - not through an Apple software update.
    Konica M 1690MF will print as normal but 'image capture' is empty.

    Same problem. I emailed KM support. Was told new drivers were being considered. Not sure what that means. No date given. Have tried several 3rd party drivers, but none work. Would love for someone to post a solution.

  • I have the Mac Os 10.4.11, and iTunes store will no longer come up on my screen to order tunes.  A download screen appears for the new iTunes. I can't download the new iTunes unless I get the new operating system for my mac.  Is there a way around this?

    I have an iMac with a 10.4.11 operating system.  When I click on iTunes Store, I no longer get the iTunes screen, instead, I get a new iTunes download screen.
    I can't download the new iTunes without upgrading my operating system.  Is there a way around this problem without buying the new operating system?
    I haven't been able to download songs for awhile now.

    which version of iTunes are you on ? if it's earlier than iTunes 9.2.1, get it here.

  • New operating system and can't find music

    Is the iTunes music I download stored on my PC or stored in iTunes? I installed a new operating system, downloaded iTunes, logged in to my account, and I'm in but my music is not there. I thought the music I downloaded was all stored in iTunes but now I'm afraid that's probably not the case. Any assistance is appreciated.

    Itunes music download are stored in your computer and not on your iTunes account, although they are related.
    You can redownload those purchased music on your new iTunes.
    Go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Go through all the tabs to download again for free

  • I have a MacBook Air and recently downloaded the new operating system. Since that time, I am no longer able to access my personal ITunes library to add music to IPhoto slideshows.  I put I tunes library on my desktop, as suggested. How do I drag it?

    I have a MacBook Air and recently downloaded the new operating system, 10.10 OSX Yosemite. Since that time, I am no longer able to access my personal ITunes library to add music to IPhoto slideshows.  I put I tunes library on my desktop, as suggested. How do I drag it to the I Photo slideshow?

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • TS4124 I have around 1000 songs manually downloaded from my CD's to iTunes in my iPhone before an operating system change on my computer deleted my iTunes and had to create a new one.  The music won't transfer to my new iTunes!  How do I get it back?

    I can't figure out how to get my music back onto a new iTunes from my iPhone.  I had to replace my iTunes after an update to my operating system on my MacBook Pro was reversed (found Mountain Lion to be incompatible with many existing programs and couldn't use it).  I had alraedy manually loaded about a 1,000 songs from my CD's and now no matter what I've tried I can't get them back onto my new iTunes!  How can I fix this without re-loading all of these songs?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    Hi there,
    I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

  • HT1420 I recently got a new operating system on my two-year old windows computer, but itunes says that I need to authorize my computer and I already have authorized five computers.  I think I should deauthorize all but does that deauthorize my ipad and ip

    I recently had a new operating system installed on my two-year old windows computer.  iTunes wants me to authorize my computer (again) and then says that I already have five computers authorized.  Should I deauthorize all?  Would that affect my iPad and iPhone?  I may have old, non-functioning computers that are still authorized and should be removed. 

    Your past purchases are not on the computer.   By choosing download all, those purchases will download to the computer. 
    Once authorized to your iTunes account you can control the computer.
    When syncing the iPad the first time you will get the warning " this iPad is synced with another computer, syncing will erase all contents and replace with the contents of this computer"
    Say yes, this is what you wan to do.

  • New operating system and now itunes library is blank. How can I get it back?

    My computer got messed up and I ended up having to get a new operating system put on it. Now my itunes library is blank and my ipod says it can't synch (obviously) because it doesn't recognize the library. How do I get my old library back?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back

    Have you failed to maintain a backup copy?
    You should never update without making sure your backup copy of your computer is up to date.

  • I downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then

    I restored my mac to factory settings and downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then. When I go into Icloud it takes me to apple page. PLease help!
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    1 - you need to update your profile as you state that you have OS X 10.6.3 in it
    2 - for Yosemite you need to backup your iPhoto library and install iPhoto 9.6 from the App store - if you are upgrading from iPhoto '08 or earlier you need to also run the iPhoto Library upgrader prior to launching iPhoto 9.6
    3 - Your photos are NOT in iCloud - it is not a place to store photos - it is only to move photos between devices (MyPhotoStream) or people (shared PhotoStreams) - they are (by default) in the iphoto library in your pictures folder - if you did not backup your iphoto library prior to erasing you disk then they are gone

    Since downloading the new operating system on my iPhone 4S, I'm having trouble with my phone messaging.  I enter a number or input a number from my contacts and send my message.  I then receive a error message stating the message can't be sent and it shows a set of "1s" were added in front of the number I entered.  Ex: 1 (1) xxx-xxx-xxxx.  Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?

    I realize this. When calling prepaid cus service it only gives you the option to input your #. If you dont the system hangs up on you. When I input my number the system doesnt recognize it and hangs up on me.
