Just got my computer back from being fixed and can not load Itunes
Just got my computer back from being fixed, they took Itunes off. Now trying to download it again and this is what happens, it says thanks for downloading Itunes, but it never launches nor can I find it anywhere on my computer. It doesnt launch when I plug my phone in either. I did notice that it says it downloaded a Binary file? This is on windows XP and Im not good at this kind of thing. Can anyone please help me.

My hard drive went and when i got my computer back from being fixed my itunes had been deleted, so i re installed it however my ipad wont connect to the itunes as its not registered to this itune, also all my songs arent on here what do i do?
There is no such thing as an "SG3" or "SG4". Did you possibly mean a 3GS and iPhone4?
It has always been very basic to ensure that a backup exists of your media and other important files. Computers fail, hard drives crashes... things happen. Do you not have a backup? The iPhone, like all iDevices is NOT a backup of your media, but rather a mirror of the content in the iTunes library on your computer.
If your contacts, pics, etc are not on your computer, no backups of the iPhone exist, and they are not on the phone, they are gone.
No one can magically make them re-appear. -
I just got my Mac back from Apple repair and I can't burn a disc. What do I need to do to make that happen?
Hello deneye2112,
Thank you for providing the details of the burning issue you are experiencing. I found some resources that I think might help:
First, I recommend resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac (I wasn't sure if you had a removable battery or a built in battery, so I listed the steps for both):
Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you can remove
Note: Learn about removing the battery on MacBook and MacBook Pro.
Shut down the computer.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your ownNote: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

If you are still having trouble with burning after that step, I recommend reviewing the section titled "Top troubleshooting tips" in the following article:

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

I'm fairly new to Mac, just got the iWeb program, I dont have and can not get a Mobile Me account, does this mean I cant use iWeb?

I just got my computer back from Apple - They fixed nothing
Long ago I made a post expressing concerns that none of the animations on my computer were as smooth as my girlfriend's Macbook with the same specs. I tried everything recommended to me, including typing some stuff into the console. Nothing fixed it.
In order to make sure I wasn't just crazy, I downloaded Xbench, a program recommended to me for benchmarking. I was told that my score should be around 100.
That being said, my score does not get above 70. Clearly something is wrong with the graphics processing on my computer because when running to through the graphic benchmarking portion of the test, my girlfriend's computer speeds through it, whereas mine goes fairly slow.
After being completely stumped by the problem, I took my computer to the Apple store nearby to get repaired. The Mac Genius didn't seem to believe that anything was wrong (he refused to acknowledge the benchmarking program) and said he'd have my logic board replaced anyway.
I just recieved my computer today and nothing has changed. I'm still getting low scores on Xbench and none of my animations are as smooth as they should be. What the heck is going on? Is it possible that nothing was actually replaced, or could the problem be stemming from something that isn't on the logic board? A RAM diagnostic didn't turn up anything...A computer's performance is affected by software or else hardware issues. If the memory chip isn't 'seated' right, hard drive speed or read capacity, whatever. Could be anything. In regards to software, there can be installation issues - people say that a fresh install with all-at-once updating has less problems than an install where you upgrade or "add" to another install. Same goes for updating after you add software applications - it is just more complex and less efficient. But there are so MANY ways to tune a computer. What about energy saving settings (vs "performance")? Also the more ikons you have on your desktop the more RAM is used. It is a learning curve you can begin by opening Activity Monitor. You want to watch how much RAM is used, disk activity, startup activities running in the background (display saver on or off?) and so on. CPU activity (and temperature) is a big indicator.
If you are hoping to someone here to post "one thing" that points to your concern, I doubt that will happen. Sometimes hardware is manufactured 2nd rate (the Seagate Drive issue from months back) and you MIGHT have a poor quality part in your machine. Not often though. Diagnosis takes time and patience. If you are in a hurry take heart in the fact that Macs have a great resell value and get rid of it / buy fresh, upgrade to the Santa Rosa - better video. (Or offer money & a trade for your GFs - maybe speed isn't as important to her).
If it were me I would try a fresh (erase) install & download all the updates at once. This is recommended by posters here. It is often posted that a new software update 'slows' a machine from prior to the update. I don't have an answer for why, except that the times I downloaded all-in-one updates I had less slowdown problems. It is a pain, though. And it may not 'fix' things. That's the reality of performance trouble-shooting, though. It's real life & it ain't fair.
Another way to go is to upgrade the performance through a new hard drive (7200 RPM).
Another thing to try is Opera / Firefox. I find Safari inconsistent - sometimes fast, next day slow. Opera and Firefox can really fly in comparison.
You are right to be annoyed. The logic of the situation is that a mass-manufactured unit should be measurably consistent (and it obviously isn't). The sad part is that these things can take so much effort to determine, it may not be worth your while to find out 'why'. -
i have just got my 3gs back from my daughter and i have put my sim card in and it comes up as emergency calls only. That is my first problem then when i plug it into itunes it only recognises it as her iphone can anyone help my please ?
I agree with wjosten. Sounds like a sim card issue. Was your sim card removed from a working,activated phone? I've switched sim cards in an iphone multilple times and never had a problem. You might try removing the sim card and reinstalling.

Just got my computer back. How can I reset my itunes so it matches my IPod settings? I have my favorites and files on my IPod that I want to keep and when I try to sync it gives me the option to erase and sync with computer. How can I sync without loosing any music or files at all?
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer. Right click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
- Restore the iPod from backup -
hey! my i just got my ipad back from having it taken away for a long time and i have know idea what the passcode is ive tried everything and i have no idea what to do
Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. If you have IOS-7, read this. -

just got an iphone 4 from my dad and its his old iphone and i was gonna delete his account so i can put my account on the iphone but he does not remember the password so I couldnt delete it. I need help deleting it without a password.
If the iPad has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device or to turn off Find My iPhone - then you will need that information. There's no way around it If your father can't remember the password, he'll need to recover it.
http://iforgot.apple.com
If he can't do it via that page, then he'll have to call Apple Support and ask to speak with Account Security.
If that's not the "password" you meant, please post back and clarify.

I just brought a apple 5c from the market and tried to load it but it's asking for Apple ID and password what a wast off money how do I unlock it now
You can't. It is locked to the previous owner's account.
Have the previous owner remove the iPhone from their account or get your money back.

i have tried this 6+ times to "How to share music between different accounts on a single computer" on my wifes mac and can not get it to work!! On my PC no problem but on the MAC it will not work, follow the instructions to the T but no go????
It is almost as if the program does not exist on my computer. If I search for it, the only thing that comes up is the installer. I cannot find it anywhere despite the fact I have installed it numerous times, uninstalled it and conducted a fresh install, and the Adobe website checks says that it is installed.
