Itunes won't open on my computer. I uninstalled it, turned off the computer, rebooted, and re-installed but when I click onto the "itunes" icon nothing happens. When I plug in my iphone or ipod nothing happens as well?? HELP PLEASE.

Itunes will not open. I click onto the icon and it does nothing. I've uninstalled it twice and still nothing. Rebooted and nothing. I plug my iphone as well as my ipod and still nothing happens. Help please.

I, too, am having a serious problem with my iTunes.
It shows that iTunes is taking up usage on my computer but there is no error message when I try to open it. Nothing even happens. iTunes does not come up and I am searching for a possible answer.
We recently had a power outage but we got power back Sunday and when we did iTunes stopped working. Before this incident iTunes usually worked and when it didn't a simple re-start was used to fix it. However now I have tried that several times and it is not working.
Help?

  • HT201210 cant restore my ipad from itunes after updating latest ios.  message tells me to turn off 'find my ipad' from my ipad, but I can't because the set up is not complete without the restore.  What do I do?

    I don't know if I'm repeating my question. I can't restore my ipad after updating to latest ios. The battery went low, I had to eject and plug in to charge.  The set up will not complete without resoring from icloud or itunes (i backed up to computer using itunes) or setting up the ipad as a New ipad.  I want to restore all my stuff but the message I get in itune says "Find my ipad must be turned off before 'ipad' can be restored".  Go to icloud settings on your ipad and turn off Find My iPad before restoring your iPad.".  I cant' get to this setting on my ipad because the set up is not complete!!!  I'm stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm afraid if I set up the ipad as new it will backup the new ipad over my previous backup and then I will loose all my photos, songs, aps, notes,......

    I have the same problem and we can't simply just restore from the backup. It says that I have to set up my iPad through restoring. So I tried restoring it in iTunes but it won't restore until I have to turn off this **** "Find My iPad" crap but I couldn't because the set up's not complete and it won't let me go to my settings unless I set it up. So basically it's asking me to go to my settings but before I could go to it I have to restore, and in order to restore I have to go to settings. Get where I'm at?
    Please, Apple Tech people! Help this 14 year old girl on her period, PMS-ing, thinking about how I want  to strangle however made this mistake of a set up, updating her iPad in 3 am in the morning cursing the day she even thought of updating. I seriously need to get out of this loophole. I don't want to use my other iPad that only has 16GB. I just wanted the pretty graphics I saw in my parent's iPad airs, I don't ask for anything more :''''(

  • Windows 7 Install failed - Boot camp partition to NTFS during formatting worked but when i clicked onto the 'next' button, it won't allow me to proceed any further. Help!

    Hi there,
    I used the following manual (http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1583/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.7.pdf) in attempt to install windows 7 onto my mac but I get an error at Step 3 - windows installation process
    I selected the BOOTCAMP partitioned drive as mentioned, clicked the advance options, and then reformatted that drive. What happens next is the drive changes name from BOOTCAMP to 'untitled'. I then tried to click 'next' button but it won't let me proceed any further and didn't state clearly why it couldn't go through (instead says to check the log file for reason why - but then I have not clue where this log file is located in as well!). 
    I had a look at that partitioned drive after to find that it is NTFS format (when I went back to OS x) so it appears that I am doing the right thing so that shouldn't be the issue..
    Does anyone know what could be wrong? or what I should try to do next?
    Could it be a format error because when i click onto the 'untitled' drive, there is nothing in there.

    Hi Steve1904,
    So you have use the backup and Restore to restore your files from Windows XP to Windows 7 directly?
    This should be considered not work.
    If you would like to transfer files between Windows XP and Windows 7, you need another tool called Windows Easy Transfer.
    See the article below if you would like to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7:
    Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7
    If possible, follow the steps there, then things should be OK.
    Best regards

    Sorry, I am new to the type of problem-solution process and I do not know how to edit my first statement. My true statement is below:
    My pdf freezes when I click on COMMENT. I am trying to get at the tools to edit a pdf. If I use the tools from the toolbar, there is no issue, but once I click COMMENT, the document freezes and I have to open Task Manager to crash it. This started in the last seven days (3.31.15).

    I answered your questions below, BUT while I was searching for properties, I found the REPAIR ACROBAT INSTALLATION feature, did the repair and (Voila!) the issue was resolved!
    Thanks for making me search for information.
    Karen
    I am using Acrobat XI Pro, version 11.0.10.32.
    I did not create the file I was working in during the freezes, so I tried a PDF that I created with Adobe and it also freezes when I click on COMMENT. I did discover that the COMMENTS plug-in is loaded. (see image
    I have used COMMENT for years without this issue occurring. It started in the last 2 weeks.
    I could not find Properties under the file menu, but found a security setting in Preferences under the Edit menu. It did not have a way to allow/disallow COMMENT.

  • A botched install on a Mac (to do with importing a profile) means that Firefox won't open on the grounds that the application is 'already open'. Tried removing everything I can find to do with Firefox and re-installed but no success. Any suggestions?

    Little more can be added to the above. The warning screen says, 'A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time.'
    I have gone though all the libraries and preferences I can find and removed everything to do with Firefox and Mozilla - it was the first install of Firefox on this drive.

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I have a new 64bit computer to which I have transferred all my files and re-installed all my programsWhen I try to print a page using Adobe Acrobat 9, Firefox crashes. This has never happened before, and does not happen with other browsers.

    I have a new computer. I transferred all my data files and installed my programs. Now, when I try to print a page ti pdf using Adobe Acrobat 9, Firefox crashes, and Adobe hangs up.

    Thanks for your reply cor-el. I had never heard of nor seen the pref network.http.max-connections until I read about it in some of the replies in this support forum. People were saying 256 was the old setting and a new setting of 48 would correct my problem. When I followed the instructions to get to - see - and change the setting I discovered that my network.http.max-connections was already set to 48. I never did this. The only way I can think of that this setting was changed is that it happened by an automatic update to my Firefox browser. So, the problem I have was probably happening while this setting was at 48 all along. It is still set at 48 and I am still having the same problem. I will try as you suggest and set it to 30 and see what happens. I'll let you know the results. That's again for your response.

  • I have Lightroom 5 installed on my MacBook Air but when I try to open the program I receive the message "An error occurred when attempting to change modules".  I uninstalled, emptied trash and re-installed but I continue to get the same message.

    I have Lightroom 5 installed on my iMac which I downloaded (uploaded?) to my MacBook Air (via wi-fi) but unlike the iMac, I'm unable to use the program on the MacBook Air.  When I open the program on the iMac and click 'file', (as people using the program would know) there are 21 options - import pics, export, etc, etc - however, in the version on the MacBook Air, opening 'file' gives me four options - New Catalogue, Open Catalogue, Page Setup and Printer - and with that comes the pop-up message "An error occurred when attempting to change modules".  Any ideas please?

    A forum thread from 3 years ago talking about LR 1.x which had this problem seems to need permissions fixed or new folders created with the corrected permissions.  You might try doing a repair permissions for your user and/or run LR as an administrator user.  I am a PC person so cannot tell you exactly how to do that.

  • How do you add icons to the iPhone which are listed as purchased apps and show installed but are not appearing on the screen.

    Some of my purchased apps show installed but don't appear as icons on my phone. How do I get them to be icons?

    I am back.  I have now sorted out my Launch Pad to be organized the way I want it. I have decluttered my Dock.  Very nice. 
    Now I want to add some of the remaining icons for apps that did not automatically show up in Launch Pad.  So, again, how do I do that?
    Thanks,

  • Itunes won't open after update

    My Itunes won't open since I updated it... No error messages appears and in the task manager, the process is running.. but nothing appears in Task Manager Applications! And, of course it never opens...
    Someone else with the same problem found any solution?

    Same thing happens to me, I installed iTunes 10 and it simply won't open when I launch it.
    I don't have the bonjour service in my Task Manager so I guess I can't try that solution.
    This stinks, what is wrong with this faulty version of iTunes? If I lose my iPhone data I would seriously die.
    BTW I'm using Windows Vista.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

  • Itunes won't open, re-install doesn't help, 6.0 won't load...?

    Hi guys,
    I can figure this stuff out sometimes, but this is perplexing me. A month or so ago I tried installing version 6.0 on my computer for itunes. After it said it was installed, my itunes wouldn't open. I deleted all programs of it off my computer, and re-installed itunes with my original disk. Still didn't open. i just tried installing the new 6.0 version again, and it gets stuck on the spot where it says "installing quick-time" It just keeps installing quick-time over and over and over again.
    Can anyone help with any sort of advice to get my itunes to open, so I can get some new songs and put them on my nano?
    Any help is appreciated.

    hiya!
    a few questions (about the launch problem) before proceeding.
    are you getting an error message? if so, what does it say? include error message numbers if you're getting any.
    or are you getting no error messages whatsoever when you try to launch itunes?
    if you're getting no error messages whatsoever, do you just see the wee hourglass for a few seconds, and then nothing? if so, do you also have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on that PC?
    or are you seeing a brief "flash" of the itunes license screen (and then nothing)? if so, do you also see similar behavior when you try to launch your QuickTime?
    love, b

  • TS1717 iTunes won't open on Windows 7

    iTunes won't open on Windows 7.
    Error message says MSVCR80.dll is missing.
    Re-installing iTunes over the top didn't work, it couldn't get passsed a mobile devices error. Any thoughts anyone?

    Howdy rtih,
    It sounds like you are unable to open iTunes after a recent update. I suggest the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

    Is anyone else having this problem?
    I tried to re-install and got the following message:  iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
    Does this mean I have now lost everything?

    I just had the same error: 
    R6034
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the apps support team for more info.
    I went to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and did a complete removal and reinstallation of iTunes. You MUST follow the directions here exactly...it's more than just iTunes that must be removed, and it MUST be done in the order in which the support article says.  I followed the exact instructions, and iTunes is back on my machine (no more C runtime error) and you do NOT lose your music...it's all in my library, as it was before.
    Good luck!

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 22.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
