Itunes will not retrieve cd info even though connected to internet

for some reason, when i open itunes now, a box opens saying that itunes was not properly installed and will not retrieve cd info until I reinstall itunes. I'm worried that if I do this I will lose all my music and playlists. I admit, I'm new to itunes/ipod, so any help is much appreciated.

Reinstalling should not lose your playlists or music, but just to be safe, make a copy of this file
iTunesLibrary.itl
Put it in a temp folder, or on your desktop. It is the database file that itunes uses. You might need to change Win Explorer to show file extensions.
I always back up that file before I upgrade or reinstall iTunes.

If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.

Try rebooting the ipad by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.

Trying to import a CD but Gracenote not working.Itunes will not get cd info

When I put in an "original" cd, it shows as an audio cd in the sources, then pulls up tracks but will not pull up any cd info. I tried to "get info" and the gracenote box appeared for just a couple seconds and then nothing. I dont get an error - just nothing.
I use McAfee anti virus and firewall. itunes is listed in my allowed list for firewall.
I connect to the internet via verizon broadband wireless
When I click the get info, I can see the verizon internet is working.
I have tried several cd's and itunes will not find the track or album titles for any of them.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks!

I've solved the problem! My verizon broadband program has something called "Venturi" on it. Venturi compresses data so pages are supposed to load faster. I disabled this funtion (when you clik open the broadband program instead of connecting right to the internet I found a preferences or tools section & within that was a tab for Venturi. I unchecked the box that said to use Venturi). Now as soon as I put a disc in itunes grabs the info without any prompting.
I closed my internet connection and tried to reopen but it didnt load, so I re checked the venturi and it loaded. I'll play with that again when I get home. Instead of rechecking the venturi maybe I could have just refreshed the page. I dont know. Either way, as long as Venturi is disabled while using itunes everything works great!

ITunes will not load song info at start-up

Hello,
Bought a 1GB shuffle, installed iTunes, tried loading my music into iTunes and no matter what I do, iTunes will not bring up the song info, artist info, album info, etc when the CD is inserted....it just keeps displaying Track 1, Track 2, etc....it doesn't matter if it is a store bought disc or a homemade copy, still does not recognize info.....I have the latest version of iTunes (4.9) and OS is Windows XP....Any info would be appreciated

If you look in the advanced menu at the top of the itunes window and click on the get track listings this will search for the c.d and give you all the info you require wont always work with obscure c.d's or copies... Hope the forum treats you well

HT1369 new version of itunes will not load getting info that itunes is not downloaded correctly

have had itunes for several yrs attempted to download newest version but getting message that itunes is not downloaded correctly and new version will not download

well nobody bothered to give me a hint on what to do, maybe because the problems with the new version of iTunes are really a lot, there is an enormous amount of people out there that have all sort of different problems including mine so I have decided to return to the previous version which works fine and wait untill the apple people come up with a decent product ....

ITunes will not open (with or without nano connected)

Please help me, I'm a newbie...
The root of the problem was my computer "not being auterised to play music" (even though it was), that I'd purchased via a £15 music card, when using the help suggestions on here, I fixed THAT problem but unfortunately it created a new one: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close"
Using many different help suggestions on here, I have now done the following:
- Upgraded iTunes and Quicktime to their latest versions (that had no effect)
- Deleted the following folder: c:\Documents and Setting\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info (after upgrading), no effect.
- I deleted and re-installed both iTunes and Quicktime (also, not effect)
- Tried istalling free (AVG) anti-spyware, running system scan and "disposing of" problems...
These were all suggestions I found on here but I still cannot open iTunes..
I've been listening to the same 90 tracks on random/repeat for over a month now and am going a bit mad..!
Please help me!
Thanks
PS I have Norton 2007 if that's of use..
Windows XP

Hi macnfries,
Have you tried deleting all iTunesSetup.exe installers off your computer, and then downloading the latest version of iTunes (version 7.2.0.35, as opposed to 7.2.0.34)?
Go to this page to downlad the latest version of iTunes:
Download iTunes - 7.2.0.35
Any success with that?

I Photosmart eStation C510a, the zeen will not sync with the printer,or connect to internet.

Hi,
I require some asisstance with my Photosmart eStation C510a. The zeen will not sync with the printer, and I cannot seem to connect it with the internet. When I first installed this printer, it was fine, both the zeen and printer were connected and in sync.
An update was automatically installed by H.P. which appeared to create a problem with the zeen , being unable to sync with the printer, the zeen also lost the internet connection. The printer is working fine, and responds to the zeens commands for printing,
scanning and copying, but I would love to have the internet connection from the zeen, whereby I can use it for emailing etc.
Is there anyone out there that can help?
Thanks,
Christorobb.

Photo will not open in iPhoto even though I have thumbnails.

Screen goes blank with a large '!' in it...... Can not get file to open at all
Can anyone help

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

My hp printer and laptop are connected but it will not print...even though it shows hooked up...

HP Officejet J4500 using Windows 7 64-bit
Has printed before but it has been months....I am sure that updates have come thru during this time.
The printer and my laptop do not seem to recognize each other. My husband can print with no problem using his laptop with windows XP. Help!

It sounds like the issue is isolated to the Windows 7 system since it works on a different computer.
Try using the Print and Scan Doctor as it is designed to resolve many printing issues. The site provides some information about how to use the tool.
If it finds any errors, it will usually attempt to fix them. If it is unable to fix the error, it should give some information about the problem and how to fix it.
Let me know what happens.

Everytime i search and select a site i get redirected while i can go directly to the site on Explorer, also some bookmarked sites will not open on Firefox, even though there were saved there but I can open them in Explorer. Help I like Firefox.

there are too many to list. when I google a site and click on it, most times I get redirected. is this a maleware issue? it seems to work fine with Explorer. for example I can open adam4adam.com in Explorer but not with Firefox.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Incoming email will not format in html even though all settings are correct

I have Windows Vista operating system. Our IT guy recently updated my Thunderbird version to 31.5.0.5531 from a very old version. I have tried all suggestions from forums about settings for HTML viewing. At this point, I don't even get the option of reading an email in HTML. I forward a lot of messages to my coworkers, and I can't do that any more. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would also gladly go back to an earlier version.
Thanks Cindy

You ask about HTML, but most of your settings are about remote content. Is it images that are causing grief or HTML?

MacBook Pro will not detect external speakers, even though it did yesterday

I have a MacBook Pro and it is connected to my HDTV via an HDMI cable and adapter. Yesterday my laptop was able to detect the external speakers in the TV and sound was coming out of my tv from my mac. But today my mac isn't detecting the external speakers and no sound is coming out of my tv. I've tried turning things on and off in multiple ways. Unplugging and replugging the HDMI cable/ adapter. Both of the cables are plugged in properly. Whenever I go to System Preferences>Sound>Output my external speakers aren't showing up. This is so annoying, help me please! Thanks.

I had this problem, too for my 2014 MBP. The output speakers did not show up when I tried to connect through the HDMI port. However, the output speakers did show up when I used an HDMI to Thunderbolt cable.
