Latest update has stopped iTunes toolbar working

After the latest update, the iTunes toolbar's buttons do nothing. It always starts like this:
Even though music is audible. Buttons change nothing. Not even the maximise one.
Also, when mousing over the iTunes icon when it's running and shows the 3 buttons, those do nothing either:
The mini player itself seems to be fine but I would love these to work as I do not always use it.

Hi there - I've spoken with Apple and here is their response (worked for me). You need to uninstall not only iTunes, but also (in this order):
1) iTunes
2) Apple Software Update
3) Apple Mobile Device Support
4) Bonjour
5) Apple Application Support
Then you restart your computer.
Then you install the latest version of iTunes (which will reinstall all those things you uninstalled).
Then you restart your computer again.
Mine is working perfectly again now.
I hope it works for you,
Carmen.

The latest update has stopped showing my Import Previews on my Nikon D80

Hello all,
After upgrading to the latest version of Aperture 2 I no longer see my thumbnails previews during imports. I'm on leopard 10.5.4, AP 2.1.1

It's an issue with the 2.1.1 update along with a long list of other problems people are seeing. I have to say after a fairly long relationship with Apple I'm beginning to get sick of their buggy releases lately. In the last 6 months I have had problems with my new iMac, iTunes, Aperture, Airport, iPhoto, Time machine, USB mounts, graphics cards, mail, MobileMe and the list goes on.... I might as well go back to a PC and save half my money if I have to put up with this crap anymore. At the moment I'm playing with Adobe's LightRoom 2 trial version and so far it's been very reliable and the performance is good too.

Ios 8 update has stopped all alerts working

i have removed all alerts, rebooted and set them up again.
Skype is the one I need, I have removed the Skype app then added again, still nothing.
a call comes in on my phone and nothing on the ipad its seems not to respond to Skype at all any more, it all worked fine before update.
all settings are set to green.
it is ALL NOTIFICATION ALERTs that do not work anymore and have never worked since ios8 update.
please please help.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

As i've posted in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=746408&tstart=30
I've tried everything others have suggested without any luck.
Now I'm stuck with a 300 bucks mp3 jalopy.
My big question here is :
why aren't we hearing from apple? why aren't they saying something like "yeah we messed things up but be patient. we are trying our best to fix it..." ?
I was thinking to buy the macbook pro but now I'm afraid of the day things will get messy with that too.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you looked in home videos

As soon as I open iTunes a message pops up to say a problem has stopped it from working and I have to close it. Any solutions?

Start with the third box in Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
If that doesn't work, use the steps in the second box to repair your iTunes installation. Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup advice elsewhere in the user tip.

I have also uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes

I have the iPhone 5 and have with 6.0.1 software version. Although I had them when I moved from iPhone 4 to the 5, the latest update has most of my songs on the phone listed in grey (over 95% of them) and I can't play them. They are still listed though.

I have the iPhone 5 and have with 6.0.1 software version. Although I had them when I moved from iPhone 4 to the 5 (could play them), the latest update has most of my songs on the phone listed in grey (over 95% of them) and I can't play them. They are still listed in the iTunes library. When I look in the Summary for the iPhone, it shows Audio as only .16 GB - I have over 5 GB of songs, so what gives?
P.S. When I look at my Playlists most of the songs are greyed out. However, at the bottom of the list there is a cloud icon with a downward facing arrow. When I click on it each song starts to "load" and after a few minutes I have the songs back on in the list. I have to do this to all my playlists (I had over 100) in order to get access to all my songs. Then I did a sync and it happened again!
I use iCloud for documents and some other things (calendar, contact, etc.) but am not aware that I have anything music-wise in the cloud. Any thougnts?

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

How can I go back to a previous version of software as iOS 5 has stopped car bluetooth working.

I have an i-phone 3GS and a 56 Plate Ford Fiesta with factory fitted bluetooth audio. This is a Nokia bluetooth but has allowed me to call hands free with this phone and previous i-phones and other brands with no problem. I upgraded to iOS5 and I can now not make calls through it. If I press call, the radio says 'dialling' but the ringing tone and when someone answers just goes straight back to the handset and not through hands free which makes it redundant in the UK. I rang Apple and asked how to go back to a previous version of software that does work but was told Apple staff were not allowed to tell me how to do this. His only other suggestion was that I buy a new car which wasn't massively helpful or practical. I have seen quite a few messages on the internet of people having this sort of problem after they upgraded. Does anyone know how to go back a previous version or how to get bluetooth back working with my car as I quite like the iOS 5 update it's just no good if I can't use it in car.? I've tried deleting and re-pairing but that hasn't worked. Does anyone also know whether Apple have picked up on this bluetooth compatibility problem and whether they are planning on doing anything to fix it as it does seem to have affected a lot of people and if it can't be resolved I'll just have to stop using i-phones and go to another manufacturer as it's not helpful living in a country where you to have hands free and then not being able to do that because a software update prevents it. Any help would be greatly received.

Hi Shero89,
Thanks for the answer. I am not new to IOS software but I don't really ever bother with it, have discovered how little I take advantage of the i-phones capability, in reality I still only really use it to phone, text, check emails, listen to music and look on internet. I'm not keen on jailbreaking it as I don't trust it to work so normally just update and leave it at that. Only reason I wanted to downgrade was because the update had stopped my bluetooth working but Kilted Tim solved that problem for me so am now not interested in downgrading software. I quite liked the things that IOS 5.1 gave me but wasn't happy with fact that bluetooth stopped working in car as it caused me problems. One day I might try and work out exactly what I-phones can do but on the basis that it's a phone all I really want it to do is phone, if that bit works I'm happy.

Hello Jane Benstock,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
It sounds like the next best step to take would be to reset the iPod Shuffle.
Check out this article named Resetting iPod shuffle found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655.

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]

Gnucash latest update has gconf problems

Hi,
The latest update of gnucash, 2.2.9-3, when started has a 'default values cannot be found' error for gconf.
I have updated the home .gconf.path file and installed into home directory as directed by the wizard that runs when I try to start gnucash.
The command update-gnucash-gconf stops with an error to do with schemas, which appear to be in another directory, not in the dir the script expects.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks for any help.

TS1702 I am updating my IPAD to version 5.1 and the update has stopped before completion. What is the procedure. If I stop the update or restart the IPAD will the update be corrupted and also the IPAD operating system.

I am updating a new IPAD to the latest version from ITUNES. The update is not complete and has stopped. What is the procedure to restart? If I close ITUNES i get a message that the IPAD is updating. Will closing the application cause the update to be corrupted and thus the operating system? Will the same occur if I power the IPAD down or disconnect it vis the USB port?
Help!!!

AppleWill - when i closed the app and restarted Itunes, I had to go thru a Restore process. The restore goes to certain point and stops. It seems at the same time as the Update stopped. I can Force a stop and reboot the computer and try again. It possible the screensaver interrupted the restore? It doesn't sound right. Any suggestions?
You may also want to go to:
~/Library/iTunes/
This is done by going to the "Go" in the Finder and select Go To Folder. Copy and paste:
~/Library/iTunes/
In to Go To Folder selection. Look for a folder called iPad Software Updates. Delete anything in that folder and re download the upadate.
