Latest Itunes update has ruined itunes and rendered ipod unsupported.

itunes updated and after having to go through a mess to fix it (ie) I had to delete all my apple related programs and reinstall itunes (11.1.4.62) to get it to work at all, now my ipod says "unsupported accessory is not supported". How do I fix this so that my Ipod connects to Itunes again?

Help. iTunes update has ruined me.

I updated to the new iTunes 7.1 and now, when i plug my iPod in, it simply shuts down. You plug it in and iTunes just closes without warning, and then osx ask's you if you want to reopen it.
Help....

Before uninstalling and re-installing iTunes (no, reinstalling iTunes won't delete your library, although it's always a good idea to have a back up available), try removing the "com.apple. itunes.plist" files from the Users> home> Library> Preferences folder, after quitting iTunes.
Start up iTunes again after removing these files and re-try the iPod.
If a re-install of iTunes is indeed required, check out the tips in this article as you proceed:

(BTW..you did make sure you ran Software Update recently...)

Cannot download newest version of iTunes, Updater has damaged iTunes install

I ran iTunes a few days ago and it told me there was a new version. So, I started to download it via the Apple updater software. Well, it failed. And failed. I then went to the iTuens website to just manually grab the installer. And it says it's trying, but I never get the notice that the file is downloading. And now, iTunes will not start. I think I have an old installer somewhere, but it will do this again the moment I start iTunes. Is this a know issue currently? Is there a fix for now, or do we just have to wait?

It is known here on the forums, but there is no official "fix". However there is an effective user tip by tt2 that will help you here: Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates

Today's iTunes update has broken iTunes on Windows Server 2008 (64 Bit)

After today's update, iTunes crashes 100% of the time upon launching.
"iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." is all the info the error window gives. Uninstalled and re-installed 3 times, with exact same results

I updated QuickTime Player. No change in iTunes crashing at launch. If I choose "debug", it brings up the Visual Studios Just-in-time debugger, with a message: "An unhandled Win32 exception occurred in iTunes.exe [4748]

Hey there davidgor2!
I have found an article that should help you resolve this issue with updating your iTunes. The article can be found here:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
and the specific part of the article you will want to look at first is right here:
"Error 42023" through "Error 42408"
These alerts might occur when trying to authorize iTunes or during launch when iTunes checks for authorization information.
Install the latest iTunes from apple.com/itunes/download/
Remove the SC Info folder.
If that does not resolve the issue, see iTunes: "Error 42408" or "Error 42404" after upgrading to iTunes 9.0.3.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Regards,
Braden

You need to restore the device to factory settings using a computer with iTunes. Then, if you have a backup, you can try restoring the backup to your device.

When i go to update my app i have to put my apple id password but instead of having my email address it has someone else's. On my computer it has my email on my itunes it has my email, and even on the app store it has my email

Did you purchase the iPhone second hand?
Has anybody else signed into their Apple ID on your iPhone?

Finally got round to buying an iPhone 4, really excellent to start with. The sharing of music from my Mac Mini was excellent. ios6 update has ruined all that! The artist view miss's out most of my music and the sharing sometimes doesn't work at all!

How do I get this feature working again? I am reluctant to move to iTunes 10.7 because I don't trust Apple at the moment.

My suggestion:
1) Always using MAC AIR with the power plug in.
2)Don' let the power level of battory fall under 30% percentage.
3)If the MAC can't be recharged now, just let it be with power plugged, WAIT...

Had the same problem. Go to Users/Library/Preferences. Discard every file that begins with com.apple.iTunes...

How much data is being backed-up from each Mac? (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
Most likely, there just isn't room. Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't. Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).
Also see #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for more details.

What if "check for updates" tells you "iOS 6.1.3"<BR>"Your software is up to date" on both iTunes 11.0.5.5 AND in iPod Touch (4g) settings?

iOS 7 requires a 5th generation iPod touch.
iTunes 11.1 can be downloaded from http://apple.com/itunes/download/.

HT201210 Itunes update failed to install and now Itunes won't run

Itunes update failed to install and now Itunes won't run

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
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.

Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

Ever since the last iTunes update, my cloud movies and TV purchases all vanished from my iTunes library.

Ever since the last iTunes update, my cloud movies and TV purchases all vanished from my iTunes library. I go to Settings>Store>Show Cloud Purchases, but Show Cloud Purchases isn't there. So, I go to the store, then click on purchases, and I download anything from my iTunes account. Now, I go to Settings>Store>Show Cloud Purchases, and it is back. I check the box, and my cloud purchases are again back in iTunes.
OK, I wouldn't bother posting this, but a day or so later, it all happens again. Cloud purchases gone, no option to fix in the Settings>Store menu until I go to the store and download something again.
How do I get iTunes for Windows to keep showing my cloud purchases without having to do this silly work-around every day or two?

Audiobooks are not avaiable for redownload from iTunes, though I suspect you may find they are still on your computer even if not currently listed in your library. This may help...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.
