My iTunes wont launch even though a correct administrator password is given Why?
It seems that every time iTunes gets updated I get problems with the launch of it.
For instance, if I click on the task-bar icon, a request for an administrator password to allow Apple to do its thing on my hard drive comes up and I type it in and it disappears, but does not launch. Furthermore, if I try to uninstall iTunes, I am not allowed to because I dont have administrator rights despite being the owner of my F..ing p.c. I have tried to get round this by creating a further user account (me) with no admin rights. Same thing try as I might I can't use itunes even though a further dowload tells me that iTunes has been "repaired" and updated blah blah ...
Please help this non-nerd DS

On holiday in Spain, my phone wont connect to wi-fi at my friends apartment but connects to some wi-fi locations in the city. The rest tells me that " Unable to join the network" even though i know the password is correct and my ipad is connected.
I have tried resetting network connections and switching on/off wi-fi, and also reset using home and top button, still nothing.Try going to the Wifi settings and clicking the little arrow next to your network, and click "forget this network" then try re-connecting. If that doesn't work, try going to settings-general-reset and clicking reset network settings. Also, make sure you have your network password correct if there is one.

Some of the songs of an album I have down loaded wont play even though they appear on the play list, I have re-downloaded the album and yet still they wont play? Can anybody help?
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer. -
Itunes wont launch, no error message, no blue screens, just wont open
itunes wont launch, i get no error message, no blue screen, it just wont open. I've tried to delete and reinstall, but once i close itunes i still have same issue. it wont open again.
I have same problem on my XP lap top and Windows 7 PC. Apple have been investigating this problem for me for a week now without success so far. Understand it 's ongoing with other customers as well.
It is caused by an bit of program called APSDaemon supplied by Apple in latest i-Tunes. Your quick fix to enable you to open i-Tunes again is as follows:- open Task Manager (right click bottom toolbar), click on Task Manager, select Processes. Find APSDaemon, highlight and press END PROCESS. I-tunes will now re-open ok. You have to repeat this every time you want i-Tunes re-opened until you switchoff or restart.
A pain I know, but lets you keep going until Apple repair and release an update for i-Tunes -

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

iTunes wont launch now that I have upgraded it a short time ago. I am running OS10.6.8 on an older MacBookPro I use primarily for iTunesWhat happens when you try? Error messages? Try re-installing it.

I can't get my new Macbook to allow me to sync and still keep my phones existing iTunes library. Even though it is the same account it doesn't seem to recognise that my Apple ID is the same
If youre like me, I have so many Apple devices, I always move things over manually rather than remember what to sync and what not to sync........ There’s an option to UNCHECK sync on any device if that helps you in ITUNES.
On any device, like your phone, in ITUNES you can check the option for manual vs. automatically sync. -
while using my pad it suddenly stopped and stated that I neede to activate it. Now it wont activate even though it had already been activated. What do I do?
Everytime I try to do an activation it later tells me that it could not activate because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. I ready to throw it.

The radio is a part of the iTunes Music app.
I don't think you can get iOS 7 on your iPod. Too old. -

I sometimes receive commercials on iTunes radio even though I have Match. Any idea why?
I sometimes receive commercials on iTunes radio even though I have Match. Any idea why? This has happened primarily on my iPhone. It is my understanding that Match provides commercial free listening.
I have/had this problem too. I have spent time corresponding with iTunes support and they can't fix it. They had me call tech support and tech support said it is not their problem. They refunded my Match subscription but I may just try to sign up for it again. My theroy is that I have been a match subsciber from day one so when iTunes radio was introduced it failed to recognize I pay for Match. I may be wrong but Apple clearly doesn't care if I pay them or Pandora for the commercial free radio so there is no motivation to solve the problem.
It is worth mentioning that it only played commercials on my desktop, not on the iPhone or Pad as far as I can recall. -

My IPad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol appears against the wifi network, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help. My collegue who also has an Ipad can access the same wifi with ease, so it must be something to do with the settings on my machine, although checking the two machines, there appears to be no difference in the settings.
My experience with hotel wifi is that it's an open, and unsecured, connection, but unless you agree to their terms on a launch page, you can't go any further or connect. Sometimes I need to force safari to come up and even make it go to a page, to trigger the auto load of the 'agree to our terms' page.
Unless your machine is work provided so maybe could be blocked from unsecured net access? -

If your Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons, you have to contact Apple Support. Only the Account Security Team can activate it again. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.
