MISSING APPS PLEASE HEEEEEEELLLPP!

Hi, I've attached a screen shot of my desktop. Notice the 2 ? in the dock. They should be the App Store and iMovie icons. Plus, the iTunes icon is just the generic app symbol. I upgraded to snow leopard a couple of months ago but I'm sure these apps have worked since then. I still have my iMovie files on the HDD but cannot open them because the app is missing. What's the deal anyone?

Your system specs are listed as Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.3. Is that the version of OS X your Mac is running?
What model year is your Mac, when did you buy it?
Yes if you are still running Snow Leopard the only way to reinstall any of the iLife apps is from the original System Reinstall DVDs that came with your system.
But I suspect you have more problems than just those few missing Apps. Like I said Apps don't just disappear.
In fact NO files just magically disappear from a Properly working computer. Whether it is a Mac or a Windows PC.
That just doesn't Happen.
There is always some other reason for that to happen and more than likely it is some type of hardware failure.

Started having trouble with iTunes so I uninstalled everything and tried to reinstall but it says ' iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.' Well, I've uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times. Now what?

I figured it out. A week ago I had downloaded a screensaver from a website I trusted and that's when my problems started. I uninstalled it but that didn't help. So, I reinstalled it then used an uninstall softtware app that cleanns more than the control panel does. Then I used a computer cleaner to be sure everything was wiped clean. And it worked. I downloded iTunes for the 7th time in 2 days and finally it worked! And I lost nothing from my account.
Maybe this info will help others.

ITunes (11.3 64bit) cannot run because some its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.

just set up my new laptop lenovo x240.
Windows 7 SP1.
itunes 64bit 11.3
first install went fine. then I tried to move my preexisting library. the library did not show the apps. so I tried around. Treid to re-install itunes.
Since I did, after the re-install, iTunes gives me the error message "iTunes cannot run because some its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
I tried the -_> link: Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
unfortunately it did not resolve. please, advise... I am quite desperate... and surprised this is happening, since I am on a clean corporate laptop.
perhaps, can someone also steer me to a corner, where I can deactivate the cloud install pop-up ones starting iTunes?

See the advice given in the user tip:Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for a very workable approach.

Missing Apps in iTunes

I searched the threads and internet to help but could not find an answer to my problem. If I missed something, please point me in the right direction. Thanks!
I am using iTunes version 11.0.1.12, an iPad 2 and iTouch (iOS 6.1). Yesterday I updated an app but when I went back to iTunes after it finished all of my apps were missing in my Apps Library (free & purchased apps). Not understanding what was going on, I connected my iPad and fortunately nothing was removed from my iPad. When I go to my Apps Library in iTunes I get the following message: "Apps: Apps you download for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch appear in apps library." Then there is a button to take me to the Apps iTunes store.
All my music appears to be fine.
In iTunes how do I get them back?
Thank you,
eubanks73

MalKishuA isn't below anymore...or at least, I can't find the post you're talking about.
but anyway, can't you just drag the apps back into the itunes library window?
edit - oops now I see it, you'd have to move the older apps over into the new folder.

Reinstalling missing apps question

A couple of weeks ago I had a problem as a new creative cloud subscriber which was resolved with help here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1159837
In the process of resolution a tech support fellow in India advised me to remove everything in my iMac that was related to Adobe and start fresh. Tech support did not mention the Adobe cleaner tool that I learned about later reading posts here. So I just uninstalled all the apps that had uninstallers but with Acrobat XI Pro and Muse and maybe one or two more apps ( these did not have uninstallers) I merely dragged them into the trash.
So I was mostly successful reinstalling creative cloud apps but now my Adobe Application Manager says that Muse and Acrobat XI Pro are up to date but they are actually not installed.
How do I reinstall these missing apps and also get Adobe Application Manager in sync with my iMac ?
Thank you again for your help in advance. I am cautious about too much tinkering in these delicate realms.

Hi again and thanks,
I followed your instructions and a fresh list of applications appeared.
I successfully downloaded apps I did not have : Muse, Lightroom, Touch App Plugins but Acrobat XI Pro "installation failed." I tried twice.
Firefox came up and opened a file : file:////tmp/6F0641F2-9379-4BE7-AA6D-2000B4644F21/Summary.htm
Exit Code: 7
Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example, ERROR:
-0 fatal error(s), 0 error(s)
Also, I have all the rest of the other Creative Cloud apps installed already. Should I leave Adobe App Manager as it is now wherein it says " install " by each of my already installed applications. Or should I close the app manager as it is?
I will leave AAM open on my desktop until I hear further.
Thanks.
Thomas

I can't open my books with the update, says failed to load book because the requested resources is missing. Please HELP.

If you can't open a particular ibook then try deleting it from the bookshelf via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf, and (assuming that it's still in your country's store) redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app (or if you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library sync it back from there).

Re-Install Missing Apps

Is there a way to re-install individual missing apps (Apple DVD Player and Apple Mail) either from the install disc or a download site? Please don't ask how they went missing.

Dave,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
What happens in Vegas...
Pacifist 2.0.1 is a shareware application that opens Mac OS X .pkg package files, .dmg disk images, and .tar, .tgz, and .tar.gz file archives and allows you to extract individual files and folders out of them. This is useful, for instance, if an application which is installed by the operating system becomes damaged and needs to be reinstalled without the hassle of reinstalling all of Mac OS X.
After you reinstall your applications, from your installation disks you should download and reinstall the Mac OS X 10.3.9 Combo Update to ensure that you have the most recent versions of your reinstalled applications.

Missing 'Apps you can add'

I am wanting to add an Announcement library, form library, and picture library to a site collection; however, when selecting 'Add an app' only three apps are listed - document library, custom list, and tasks. Note: The Team Collaboration Lists feature
has been activated. Any assistance with accessing the missing apps would be greatly appreciated.

There has been a Site Collection Feature for this within previous versions of SharePoint. I don't know how this works within SharePoint 2013 but it would be worth a try.

No you will not lose your content reinstalling iTunes.
Do this:

ITunes 10.6.1.7: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." ?

Fakt:
iTunes 10.6.1.7 Fehlermeldung: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
Jeder Versuch iTunes zu starten war bisher vergeblich: unter anderem auch das Vorgehen nach Artikel HT1925 der knowledge base.
Frage:
Windows XP Neuinstallation und/oder Installation einer älteren iTunes-Version als letzter Ausweg?

Antwort und Lösung eine Woche später:
Deinstallation und Neuinstallation von iTunes 10.6.1.7 produziert dieselbe Fehlermeldung.
Es hilft nur eine Reparatur von iTunes unter Systemsteuerung / Software. Allerdings muss hier Windows XP mit Hilfe von Ausführen / msconfig im benutzerdefinierten Modus erneut gestartet werden - ohne APSDaemon, Avira und Skype zu laden!
Die Fehlermeldung unterblieb, die Reparatur schritt voran, meldete Erfolg und benannte eine wohl defekte Datenenbank unter C:\Documents and Settings\MyAccountName\My Documents\My Music\iTunes um in:

Failure to do so will mess up the install and you must start over.
I'm not sure if I should take a chance... Could you please explain step 4 a bit more detailed? Do I have to click on "reboot" (where?) and then within 10 seconds turn off the virtual machine? HOW would I do that? THANKS!
