    Running Windows Vista ( i believe service pack 2 ) and itunes says that it cant use my phone because it is out of date. i attempt to update and it wont update. it will say that the software is up to date. itunes will continually freeze and crash and its getting quite frustrating because i cant pull my photos from my phone so i can make room for the latest software update for my phone

  • Itunes wont update track names even when purchased from itunes

    my itunes wont update track names even when purchased from itunes

    Update them to what?
    Are they not correct as purchased from iTunes?
    I seriously doubt that the track names are incorrect in the iTunes store and when downloaded to your computer.

    Are you referring to the password for your email account? If so, recovery of that password would be dependent on your email provider. Normally they have a web based access for email, check there and see if there is a "forgot password" link.

  • Itunes wont update, uninstall or reinstall

    so everything was fine, i had my iphone 4s and my sony vaoi laptop and then one day it tells me to update my itunes. so thats what i did, it was running the install and then a error came up saying that 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that it unavailable' then underneath it gave me the option to go browse for where it was. it seemed to have disappeared only when the installation came about because when i quit it i found it in the exact same place that i looked when it gave me the option to 'browse'. for a month this was going on and i tried to fix it every time it offered me the installation but then it said my iphone couldnt connect to itunes anymore because itunes is not updated but how the heck do they expect me to upddate it when it just disappears?! i havent been able to update music on my phone anymore which is very annoying because that is one of the main reasons i got my iphone4s. then i looked up my problem on the internet and this person gave me a link and said uninstall itunes and reinstall it. it was called 'revo pro uninstaller' i thought it was going to work because it said it had uninstall everything to do with apple so i shut down my laptop to leave it rest. i opened it up the following day and there apple was again. for days i tried to uninstall everything to do with apple but it just wont go away. the same message as  'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that it unavailable' then underneath it gave me the option to go browse for where it was' and then it said 'the older version of itunes wont uninstall please contact your technical support group' when i tried to uninstall it or reinstall it on my laptop. to be honest apple, samsung are looking alot of a heck better. i have never been so annoyed with a company in my life. please get your act together.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • We upgraded our mac now itunes wont sync with our i phones

    Update old software on the Mac so my partner can run citrix and now iphones wont sync any advice

    I'd like to add some info;
    iTunes and iPhone are both up to date. Phone is NOT jailbroken.
    I've tried the iFun Box "fix" however while it allows iTunes to once again recongonize my phone it only works the one time meaning I'd have to erase and re-sync my entire music library evertime I want to add music or movies. Ridiculous no?
    And when using the iFun Box "fix" I don't have the music database file which would alledgedly allow me to keep my music without re-syncing the whole thing.
    I can't believe there is no easy fix for this yet.
    This is a new phone and I'm incredibly ticked off right now. I'm not sure why Apple's own product wont' work with its own software.

  • ITunes wont update itself

    I go to the "Help" tab and go to check for updates and try and update to 8.0.2 so I click the button and it starts for a second and then stops and does nothing else. Should I uninstall and then try and reinstall or what. If I do that will it take away the library and purchased songs once I get the iTunes reinstalled?

    Its not your phone that needs updating - its iTunes on your PC that needs to be 11.1
