Try removing the iTunes preference file and starting up the program again. Optionally, hold "options" when launching iTunes to bring up a window that will allow you to reselect your music library.

    i have just updated itunes now it wont show my device to sync to in corner  and all the media (mucic, movies) have red text instead of being normal .. whats going on freaking out???

    Since iOS 5 has not been released yet, it's interesting you say you've already downloaded it.  Trash the file you downloaded and wait for the official release. It will probably drop around 10:00 California time.

  • Itunes wont even start up

    I finally fixed the installer error for itunes 5.1 and now it wont even start up can anybody help me out!!!!

    Looks like I might have found the solution on a youtube comment:
    R.O:
    "Plug into you laptop first, whichever set up you use that has iTunes, i know it won't read it, don't even open iTunes as of yet. Do the typical reboot "Menu +Center button at the same time" and hold it, DONT LET IT GO like we were told, when the apple pops up.. KEEP HOLDING IT it will make a new ding sound I've never heard before. and since its hooked to you laptop already an error message pops up and says apple will need to download something to repair your iPod. I when u see that that when i let reboot buttons go. hit ok on the laptop something downloads for like 20 seconds then the iTunes icon hops around when you open it it has a screen with an iPod classic on it and says "Software version blah blah, iTunes will check for an update on such n such date" AND FINALLY there's a "Restore" button. click that and you will be back to square one with your iPod. Renaming , adding all the music on it, but it will work again, finally. "
    I had to do it twice, because my mac froze the first time, but its recognized it now and is downloading the software as we speak...
    Now I've clicked the restore button and it's restoring... I'll post again if its a success, otherwise assume failure.

  • Just updated iTunes.... and it won't start.

    Hey, I'm new to the forum. I just updated iTunes yesterday, along with QuickTime. There weren't any problems at all during installation. After it was completed, it asked to restart the computer in order for the installation to be fully completed. I was busy at the time so I didn't restart until today around 2 PM (I installed the updates around 1-2 AM, Tuesday).
    After restarting, I wanted to open iTunes in order to listen to some music, but when doing so, I get:
    iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
    After that, it's just the usual message us Windows XP users get about sending error report or not sending. You can even see the data of the error report, but I can't understand anything.
    Anyways, that's the problem which I'm facing. I tried searching Support for previously asked questions, but there wasn't anything close. Please help... Thanks in advance.

    Hi there and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Ok, so, do me a favour, open up Quicktime and see if that opens up ok. If it does, fine, if not, what does it do and are there any error messages involved?
    You may want to work thru some steps outlined here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
    Does this help out at all?
    Try reading this one also:

    I would also scan for viruses and spyware as these have been known to cause this errorless crash and burn of iTunes.
    Keep updated on your progress and if you have any questions.
    Good Luck, got my fingers crossed for ya.

  • Just updated itunes now wont connect to ipad or iphone

    just updated itunes now wont connect to ipad or iphone

    Do you have a mac or PC? If a PC try going into the control panel, add/remove programs, find something named Apple device driver, apple mobile device support, something like that (the exact name has changed from version to version)
    Uninstall that then restart your comptuer
    Open iTunes and then plug in your device and see if the drivers install

  • I just updated Itunes to the newest version and now my entire song library is saying 'can't play this song because original file can't be found'.  ***??

    I have no idea what happened!?  I just updated Itunes on my macbook and now my entire song library won't play.  When I click on a song it says it can't play because it can't find the original file.  How is this possible?  The original files are on my computer.  I just upgraded!! HELP!!

    The only thing I can think of is that you deleted these files off your computer without using iTunes to do it. Or maybe you backed up your computer to a previous state to where these song files didn't exist? The last one doesn't even make sense to me unless you used Time Machine to do it. But those are the only things I can think of.

  • Just updated Itunes to 11.1.4.62 and no longer synchs to iphone

    Just updated Itunes to 11.1.4.62 and no longer synchs to iphone. Did reinstall, removed old itunes, rebooted, rebooted phone, stopped ipod service, started ipod service. Every variation fails to show iphone 4s in new itunes update. Really getting fed up with itunes and updates that cause more drama than benefits. If this continues I will switch to Android Windows 8, not vista as listed below
