ITunes v9.2.1.5 running setup screen at every open & other issues

Hi,
I installed the above upgrade Thursday when prompted, since then, every time I open itunes, it launches the setup screens. This is one issue....
Some idiot I work with, actually ran the setup process when I wasn't here, now my library contains every file off my pc. I tried to restore to a month ago, but now my itouch reports sync problems & tells me it can't backup.
I purchased an ipad yesterday; it too tells me it can't backup to this pc?
Gota love untested upgrades!
Do apple read these to find out about errors, I lodged a feedback form, but really would like an upgrade to fix the problems with the upgrade!
Thanks

Try this.
Quit iTunes.
Drag the C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes file to the desktop.
Launch iTunes and see if it fixes the issue. If it pops up, quit and relaunch iTunes as it may see that as the first time running iTunes.
If it didn't fix it, quit iTunes then drag the C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes file to the desktop and launch iTunes again as above.

  • Blue line runs across screen but Skype (and other Andoid apps) crashes and doesn't open

    The headline says it all really. I was forced to restore to an earlier saved version after problems associated with contacts. Amongst the many issues now is the inability to run adroid apps, whether ported on not. Not happy. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

    Did you restore your phone with an OS of at least 10.2.1? Anything earlier than that will not run Android apps.
    Cheers.

  • My 2007 iMac seems to reset the home screen when not in use.  I am running mavericks and have had no other issues... just curious if this is a sign of something worse or to come?

    I updated to Mavericks and love it.  Its made both my 2007 iMac and 2007 MacBookPro faster.  But I have noticed in the last couple of days that my iMac screen with periodically go blank except for the background photo I set... then just as fast the icons on the desktop flash back up.  Is this a sign of something wrong or impending?  

    Finder crashes are often caused by "Google Drive." If it's installed, I suggest you remove it according to the developer'sinstructions. You may need to boot in safe mode to do so. Back up all data before making any changes.
    If you use Google Drive and don't want to remove it, then try deselecting the option in its preferences to show a status icon. According to reports, that may be enough to stop the Finder from crashing.

  • Lock screen closing every open apps..i

    HI
    i have an iphone 5s and ipad 3
    when i lock my i device or they automatically lock ,evey open apps will closed!!!!
    what 's happen!!!??
    how can i fix it??!!

    Hey there Artisansdjj,
    It sounds like your iPad is minimizing or closing any app that was open before you put it to sleep with the Smart Cover, or the Sleep/Wake button. I would start by quitting all the running apps:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it. 
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

  • Firefox remains as the topmost screen when I open other programs, so I can't see them unless I shrink Firefox. How to fix?

    We have two Apple ID's but share the same computer....that runs Itunes...How do i setup Icloud for ea. user ID?

    You can't merge Apple IDs.  What you could do is set up your phone to use the same iCloud accout you are using on your Mac.  To do this, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (Contacts, Calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone.  When everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Now add the iCloud account you set up on your Mac (with the same Apple ID) and turn syncing back on for Calendars, Contacts, etc.  When prompted, you will probably want to choose merge, to merge the data on your phone with the existing data on this iCloud account.

    Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the  go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

  • HT1751 i bought a new, larger external hard drive. copied my itunes library from the old drive to the new one, changed the libarary location in Edit/Preferences/Advanced to the new drive. iTunes will not start or run unless old hard drive plugged in.??

    I bought a new, larger external hard drive. I have my iTunes library on the external drive instead of C: drive, Using Windows 7.
    I copied my itunes library from the old drive to the new one, changed the libarary location in Edit/Preferences/Advanced to the new drive.
    iTunes will not start or run unless the old hard drive is plugged in.
    If I disconnect the old drive iTunes shuts down.
    Any ideas. ??

    Hello kskip,
    Thank you for providing so much information about what is going on.  It sounds like you have setup iTunes to save new content to your new external hard drive in iTunes>Preferences, but it sounds like iTunes is not opening iTunes Library.itl file on the new external drive.  You have one last step to take to have iTunes point to your new external hard drive rather than your old one:
    Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
    If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
    If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
    You should see the following screen:
    Additional information
    If you do not see the screen above, then you did not hold the correct key at the correct time. You may want to try again. Note that if you pinned iTunes to the Start menu programs, and open it that way, it may not work.
    Once you select "Choose Library," you will need to navigate to the iTunes Library.itl file on your new external drive.
