ITunes Won't Show up After Updating?

Awhile after I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 7, I went to go to my iTunes app. When I try to go it, it will show up for about a second, then blink away. I tried to reset my network settings, and that still did not work.. Are there any ideas on how I could fix this?

Delete iTunes following this set of instructions http://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT1925 and reinstall iTunes from a fresh download.
Make sure you follow the sequence of uninstall processes before reinstalling.
Hope this helps.

  • ITunes won't show iOS 5 update

    My iTunes won't show the iOs 5 update. I hook up and synch my 3rd gen. Touch, but whenever I click on "Check for Update" it just tells me that I have the current version (4.2.1). I updated my iTunes to 10.5, so I'm not sure what the issue is.

    The best thing I can say is make sure you are connected to the Internet and try disabling any security software.

  • ITunes won't open up after updating...

    oh no. it won't.
    i download the update, i install it succesfully, i open up iTunes and...that's it, it bumps in the dock once and then it disappears without opening up.
    Then the only thing that can restore a working version of iTunes is deleting it with appDelete and reinstalling the 7.1.1 version...yes, because all the later updates won't work in any case. None of them.
    anyone got an idea? actually i don't need to install the newer version of itunes, but id like to solve it
    thanks

    Do you get an error message when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • ITunes won't recognize iPod after update

    I got a 40G color photo ipod froma friend and had it restored, plugged it in, added my music, unplugged it, and used it just fine. I went to plug it back in to add a few more things and it was not recognized by iTunes. The autoplay window came up and then the iPod installer said I had to restore the iPod- which I did. Then I reinstalled my music, unplugged it, and it worked fine. Then I plugged it back in and the same thing happened. I went to the apple store and they restored it again and ran diagnostics on it. It seems to be just fine. I got it home. plugged it back in to my laptop, added my music, and it worked fine. Then I unplugged it and it messed up again.
    You can see the frustrating cycle that I find myself in. Here are the things that I have noticed:
    When I stop the update partway through, disconnect and then reconnect, it seems to be fine. Once the update is finished and the iPod is disconnected and reconnected, it seems to never work properly.
    Also, it seems that when it is working properly, when I open the safely remove hardware window, the iPod is recognized as an iPod. It reads:
    USB mass storage device
    Apple iPod USB device
    When it is not being recognized, I open the safely remove hardware window, and it says:
    USB mass storage device
    Generic volume - (E:)
    Apple iPod USB device
    Could this be the problem?
    iPod 40G color photo   Windows XP Pro  

    B- I plugged in my iPod again this morning and got the same autoplay window- and no recognition. I went in to change the drive letter of the iPod following the instructions on the link you gave me. When I pull up the disk management window, I see 2 disks listed: (C:) and (E:), but it does not say IPOD like the picture does on the help page. Should I change the drive letter anyway? Does this mean that it's not recognized as an iPod? Thanks for your help...
    Also, about 3-5 minutes after the autoplay window comes up, I get an "iPod not readable" message that instructs me to open the iPod updater to restore my iPod- which I've done 5 times already.

  • ITunes won't play songs after update

    I updated to 11.1.4 today. I had to restart Apple Mobile Devices and Bonjour to get my pc to see my iPhone and my Time Capsule respectively. However, if I open iTunes and click on a song to play, it stays stuck at 0:00 and won't play. If I move the slide bar to jump in the middle of a song, it stays stuck where I moved it to without playing. Any ideas?

    It may pay to tear down and reinstall iTunes in the following manner...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Windows/iTunes won't recognise iPod after update.

    So I updated to the latest iTunes the other day and now just yesterday I plugged my iPod in for the first time in a few weeks.
    It said something about upgrading to ISO4.0 so I downloaded the update. Everything seemed fine - was working no problem, downloaded and then went onto install. It mentioned something about an error occurring and not being able to back up my files. I didn't want to lose everything so I just cancelled that but it went ahead and did something anyway.
    Then it all went a bit fuzzy. The iPod displays this image:
    http://km.support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECAREALLGEOS/HT1808/HT180803.png
    Even though it was connected and such. The PC (Dell inspiron 1501 - Service Pack 3 - XP Pro) went on to try installing new hardware for the USB device but fails every time with the message "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software."
    Now the iPod is stuck at the same screen I mentioned earlier and though I've tried restarting, restoring, recovery etc... Nothing works. It's just stuck like that - I've tried restarting my computer, reinstalling iTunes and the MSCONFIG thing this Apple support recommends. The only thing I can now think of is to try the iPod on someone else's computer.
    But I'm unable to do that any time soon so I've come here first - should that actually work and solve my iPod being "stuck", what steps can I take to solve the obvious incompatibility with my own computer now? And should it not work, what do I do about the iPod? Cause I can't see a way of fixing it right now...
    Cheers,

  • My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling.  Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library?  HELP!

    My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling.  Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library?  HELP!

    The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevent it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
    If that doesn't cure the problem, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them or if you want to be able to put them back if it doesn't help, drag them to some other location. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistant the next time you launch iTunes. Note that you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
    If that still doesn't work, try this:
    Bugie: Perform a Thorough & Complete Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes/QuickTime.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes Library does not work after update 10.4

    After updating 2 days ago to Lion,yesterday i must update Itunes to 10.4.
    After updating Itunes 10.4 can not see my Itunes Library anymore on my Drobo(Ext HDD)
    I've try everything but it don't work anymore.
    Please help!!!

    Hi Michael, depending on which drobo you have, there are firmware updates you need to download from the drobo support site and install to your drobo, along with companion software on your new Lion system. You can probably do this from any mac that can see the drobo. Maybe even from Lion. For the first gen drobo (which I have) there's not yet a Lion firmware update.
    Drobo (the company) says it's working on Time Machine, which for many people is failing to play nice with Drobo after the Lion upgrade. So you may have to wait a little longer for full Time Machine readiness.
    Best of luck.

  • Mac OSx won't boot up after update to 10.6.7?

    Mac OSx won't boot up after update to 10.6.7?

    Hi Mike
    This is called a kernel panic, similar to s 'blue screen of death' on Windows. When you say you reinstalled 3 times, do you mean the OS or the Update?
    When does this kernel panic appear? You may have a hardware issue if it's happening on boot.

  • ITunes won't show my iPhone as a connected device

    Had an issue with my phone, when syncing files would appear on my phone but not actually be able to play so i deleted all the files off of my phone and started following trouble shooting steps however now iTunes won't show my device as connected however it is charging and my computer has recognized it as being plugged in. I have also tried syncing over wi-fi but it doesnt give me the option to and the 'sync now' button is greyed out. Any help would be much appreciated as i listen to music about 5 hours a day on my iPhone.

    Hi there mead266,
    If I understand correctly your phone is not being seen in iTunes but otherwise your computer does detect that it is plugged in. I would recommend the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
