ITunes update has hosed the login of my laptop and my elderly Fathers PC ??
My father came home from an oversee's trip and was able to login to his system and all was working fine. Then two days later an update for iTunes popped up and having an iPhone and iPad he knows, at 84, that he needs this utilities and so he always updates them.
This time it updated and he rebooted as always and since that update he can log back on in the standard login screen of his system.!!!!!!
iTunes ver 11.0.2.26
Apple Application Support v 2.3.3
Apple Mobile Device Support v6.1.0.13
Applie Software Update v 2.1.3.127
It appears as if a system .dll or core level driver has been damaged or corrupted, since he can only login to safe mode.
Is there a patch version of iTunes that corrects this issue or do you have a registry hack to clear this up in the system services????
I need an urgent reply on what is going on here.
If it boots in safe mode, uninstall iTunes.
Reboot the computer.
Does it boot normally? If so, backup the important data on the computer.
Install the current version of iTunes then reboot.
Does it boot normally or does the problem reoccur?

ITunes Updates Keeps Modifying the Library
The last two iTunes updates I have allowed to run (9.1x and today, version 10) have mangled my library. The 9.1x download wiped about 2 hours of user-input cover art. The Apple cover art function is awful, to be kind. When I spend hours updating the holes and mistakes it leaves behind, I don't appreciate the next version wiping it out during the update.
I reluctant;y put in Version 10 today. Immediately afterward, I opened my library to find that not only did this version randomly delete my cover art AGAIN, it also randomly separated my albums into multiple entries. Now I get to spend 2 to 3 hours scouring my library for the missing and wrongly assigned cover art, I also have to knit entries back into single albums.
Who does your software QA? If I put the cover art in manually, LEAVE IT. Don't rearrange my library entries. Don't break up albums into multiple new albums. Next time you feel the need to make an iTunes upgrade, think Hippocratic, and first do no harm. AND GIVE ME A BLOCK ALL UPGRADES OPTION. I really don't need your help any more.SAme problem here. Did you ge tany fixes, other than manual?

I have windows 8 and I have the most updated version of Itunes, my iphone 4s connects, but nothing plays from my itunes all items have the cloud next to it, and they are dithered out
In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?
No content shows up in iTunes after updating -
In the last Apple Itunes update it deleted the file Msvcr80.dll, how do get it back so I can download Itunes again?
Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

With the new update has gone the option to blend the edges of the images. An indispensable tool

Ibán,
Apply the Picture Frame effect in Pages V4, then paste into Pages V5.
It's inconvenient, but then many things are in Pages V5.

Why is it everytime itunes updates, I get the sqlite3.dll error?
Why is it everytime itunes updates, I get the sqlite3.dll error?
Hmmm. Are you game for a bit of basic principles troubleshooting? (No guarantees we'd get anywhere, I'm afraid.)
Unfortunately I got even more errors.
What's the precise text of the error without the SQLite3.dll in \Mobile Device Support\
When you checked to see if there still were errors (after dragging the file out), was there a copy of the file still back in \Apple Application Support\? -
i updated my mac which is an O X LION .7 but after the update has completed the mac rebooted itself and never stop booting
flamebliss wrote:
yes wen i try booting in Safe Mode it behave the same. i have downloaded the combo update of 10.7.5 from another laptop, so how do i run it on my mac. THANKS for helping
The goal is to mount the combo update .dmg on the desktop and then open and run it. If you can't get to the desktop to begin with, that won't work. Another approach is to treat the Mac's hard disk as just another HD by using a second Mac and then connecting the problematic one via Target Disk Mode. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661. Note that both Macs will need Firewire ports and you'll need a FIrewire cable to connect them. With the combo updater, one of the steps in the process is to select the drive you want to install the update on. Once you're successfully connected in Target Disk Mode, the problematic drive should appear in the list.
If that doesn't work or Target Disk Mode isn't possible, the only other solution is to boot into Recovery Mode; see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718. Note that once booted into recovery mode, you have access to Disk Utility, and you should try running Repair Disk after selecting the bad drive to see if something's wrong with the directory which could be fixed. When you select that drive, you should also look at S.M.A.R.T. Status at the bottom of the window. It should say "Verified." If it says Failing or Failed, the HD needs to be replaced.
If the HD is OK, all that's left that I can think of is to reinstall Lion using Recovery Mode. I hope you've maintained current backups or at least complete Time Machine backups. Of course, if you have a backup and the backup is bootable, you could boot from that, wipe the internal HD clean, and clone the backup onto the internal HD. -
iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update. I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?
'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -

2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad -
Last night I downloaded the latest Word update. Today the first Word document crashed and I lost 45 minutes of work in spite of having saved the document numerous times. Why is Word crashing the day after a safety update? I have Office 2008 for Mac
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/LaunchDaemons
Open Console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & next startup for clues. -
I upgraded to mountain lion a week ago and now on startup of my macbook pro, microsoft excel and word start up automatically and then crash? very strange can anyone please help? I have checked the login items under users and groups and there is nothing.
Are you using the Office for Mac 2011 version, as you need to do? The Office for Mac 2004 is Not at all compatible with Mountain Lion, and the 2008 version has been noted to have some problems running with ML.
Hope this helps -
Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes using laptop PC (W Vista). iTunes does not "see" the device. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does. Just want to get it operating again for browsing and e-reading.
OK. You merely erased the content and settings. The IOS is still there.
If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures. From what you've already stated, my guess is that you'll end up with Recovery Mode described in the last paragraph.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.
