Loaded iTunes 9, now mouse won't work

Interesting. I updated iTunes 9 via the "Check for updates" menu option. Installation was clean and green - no errors, no freezing or hanging, clean reboot.
Upon restart, the mouse won't work. Standard ps/2 for a Dell PC, no problems before now, etc. Rebooted again. Mouse doesn't work.
What gives? Anyone have this problem? Sounds like a resource conflict, but those are so rare in recent years I find that possibility surprising.

When the system was restarted, my iPod was plugged in. Normally, this isn't a big deal, but as a troubleshooting step, I unplugged the 'pod, rebooted and got mouse functionality back.
Just to test it, I then plugged the 'pod back in, and everything still worked. The next test would be to plug the 'pod back in and reboot just to see if I lose the mouse again, but I'm happy enough to move on.

Did the iTunes update & now it won't work at all!

I downloaded the iTunes update 2 days ago, and now iTunes won't work because it needs 10.4.9+ & all I have is 10.4.8
I tried to download the 'Combo' 10.4.11 but it crashed my system (the 'Restart' hung with turning wheel for over 2 hours) & I had to reboot from disk at the cost of several hours.
I only use iTunes for listening to the radio worldwide, nothing else. I have no iPod, have no purchased music.
Is there any way to uninstall the update? iTunes was just fine for me before the update.
Or, is there any way to install the 10.4.11 from a friend's disks? - since it's just an 'Update' which is available online, it doesn't sound like it would be illegal, but I want to keep "Kosher". I am assuming that even though the downloaded update crashed my system, loading from disk should work.
Any help would be appreciated - I am not very computer literate, so the simpler the better!

Finally solved the problem by going back to an older version of iTunes, which I found on FileHippo.com - I chose version 7.0 since I had no idea what older version I used to have.
The uninstall was the hard part, but these instructions did the trick:
http://www.oldapps.com/forum/showpost.php?p=925&postcount=34
Even then, when I got the "iTunesSetup.exe", clicking on it got the message:"iTunes library cannot be read because it was created by a later version of iTunes". Apparently some fragment of the "update was hiding somewhere.
I finally solved this by right-clicking (option+click) on it.
So now I have iTunes back & have no need for the "Combo Update"
At this point, having had a week of frustration from that worse-than-useless "Update", I have no intention of messing with any more "Updates". This computer is, and will remain a 10.4.8 machine.

Itunes crashed - now it won't work at all - tried to uninstall but can't re

So - itunes was playing away happily when it just stopped - I tried to force quit it but no luck - it would just stay in the dock and I could not even get it out of the dock. I tried dragging the itunes icon from the application folder to the trashcan to uninstall it - no luck - it said itunes was still running even though I had force quit it a bunch of times.
I restarted my Mac - itunes was not in the dock so I drug the icon from the app folder to the trash and that worked. I downloaded the latest version of itunes (twice) both times the installation never would complete. When it came time to start the actual install - itunes showed up as "0" bytes and when I would hit next - I received a message saying there was nothing to install. I ran the "check for updates" thing and no updates are found for my computer.
So - I can't find itunes on my computer - I can't install it and I can't listen to any music. All my music is still on my external hard drive - I didn't lose anything
I'm just at a loss for what to do now.
Any help or advise would be great! Thanks!
Dan

Glad to hear your prolbems have been sorted.
Have had similar problems since performing a sofware update last week.
Itunes has crashed.
Can't be reinstalled.
The software update won't work, neither will disk utility.
Removing the .dmg files hasnt helped.
Any suggestions?

Updated itunes and now it won't work

I just updated my itunes and now it says that my copy of itunes is corrupted or did not install properly. I had no problems earlier today when using itunes and I have no idea what the problem could be.

Updated ITunes but now it won't work

Ok I didn't see this posted anywhere. I downloaded the latest update for iTunes (10.2 or something like that) and had quicktime and all that updated. Everything went fine and I restarted my computer like it said to do but not when I try to open iTunes it says
"ITunes cannot run because some of its required fields are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
Please tell me there is a way I can fix this without having to reinstall iTunes as I assume that means I have to sync all my CDs to iTunes yet again!

Just so you know, you're not alone in this although my message is saying "required files are missing" instead of fields. I also note from other threads that the Airport connection bug is still in this upgrade for the third upgrade since going to iTunes 10.
This is not good enough Apple ! Check your updater software before unleashing it on the general public. One faulty upgrade is an accident, this has now happened on three. Sort it out or get some competent QA people in.
/rant over
(Useful bit) : Just downloaded the latest 64 bit installer and run the "Repair" option, iTunes has let me in with library all intact.

HELP!! Updated iTunes and now it won't work

I just updated itunes & quicktime. I can't open itunes, it tells me that I need to have quicktime 7.0.3. which I do. It tells me to reinstall which I've done 3 times.
Help!!!
Thank you!

hello Illinois!
I can't open itunes, it tells me that I need to have quicktime 7.0.3. which I do.
hmmm. is that message saying that you have 7.0d0 installed?
if so, what we're going to try is a careful standalone QT 7.0.4 install. (that's the version of QT which you are supposed to be getting in an itunes 6.0.2.23, 6.0.3.5 or, as of this afternoon, an itunes 6.0.4.2 installer bundle.)
download and save the QT 7.0.4 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.0.4 Standalone Installer
if the standalone QT install goes through okay, will your itunes launch properly?

I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.

I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

Itunes updated and now it won't work. I unstalled it and reinstalled the older version and it still won't open. Says the itunes library won't work with the older program. Help

It says it cannot removed the older version of iTunes.
Doublechecking before proceeding ... what's the precise text of that message, please? (There's a couple of different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

My new Dell PC running Windows 8 does not recognize my iPad or iPhone. Worked OK for iPhone for months but would not work for new iPad. I removed /relaoded iTunes and now it won't recognize either iPad or iPhone.

Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

assuming it is an optical mouse (no ball etc.) then there aren't any moving parts involve in the motion detection
so there's a faulty component or connection
from what you describe it could be just a loose/broken connection, so if you know someone familiar with electronics see if they can open it up and have a look

I bought Cool Edit Pro v. 2 many yrs ago. loaded onto new PC and now it won't work

It now thinks it's a "trial version" and won't let me use it. It's NOT A TRIAL VER, I PAID FOR IT. The Adobe support guys don't want to help, I need a work around

I loaded it using the original CD and license number. My old PC had Windows XP but my new PC has Windows 7. It worked for a while, but then up pops the "trial version" stuff saying I used up my 12 free hours. It wasn't a trial version, I bought it years ago and have been using it all along

Where did you reload it from? Do you still have the original CD and serial number? Maybe it isn't compatible with your new PC so we need a bit more info to see if it is compatible.

Just bought a new iphone4 and was loading os6 and now it won't turn on. the apple glows like it is starting up, then the screen goes black and then repeats the same process over and over. i have tried to reboot multiple times now

just bought a new iphone4 and was loading os6 and now it won't turn on. the apple glows like it is starting up, then the screen goes black and then repeats the same process over and over. i have tried to reboot multiple times now

I am assuming the phone was working prior to you installing IOS 6? Did you use itunes to install IOS 6 or just run from the phone?
When I tried to do the Over The Air update to IOS6 on my iPhone 4, it errored out and I had to connect it to iTunes and select "Restore" from the summary screen after iTunes finds the phone is connected. If this works for you, it will go through a couple of reboots that take a few minutes to complete. It should then give you the option to start with a fresh new phone or to use one of your previous backups to load your contacts and other information, provided you have backed up the phone previously.
I hope this helps you my friend!
