My itunes wont update to 9.0; Also cannot update my iphone

Every time I've tried to update my itunes it does not do anything. I go to the help tab and select "check for updates" and it pops up with a message saying "A new version of itunes (9.0) is available would you like to download it now" and so I select download and the message dissapears and itunes pauses for a minute (as if it's updating) but after it's done it has not been updated. I cannot update my iphone also because I do not have the most current itunes. I don't want to uninstall/re-install because I have over 16,000 songs & many playlists in my itunes. Somebody please help!!!

tools is at the top of the apple updater but dont get your hopes up

  • ITunes wont update any iphone or ipod

    when i plug my iphone or ipod into my computer itunes recognizes it and everything seems to be fine, it can show all files on the device and all songs. the problem is when i try to restore or update it wont do it. for the iphone 3G if i click the restore button nothing happens. same with the sync and update buttons. the same thing with my ipod nano 4th gen. if i try it on a different computer it will download the firmware and extract and install as its supposed to. but this computer wont do any of that. i have itunes 8.1.

    neither library sync it
    how do i make my laptop my default library then? with the same settings/playlists that are on my desktop? i download touchcopy09 which allowed me to transfer all songs/playlists over to my laptop to itunes which is how i have the same exact songs on both laptop and desktop
    on my desktop, music only transfers over if i click and drag it to the iphone dropdown

  • HT201413 itunes wont install, runtime error R6034 also 'apple mobile device' wont start! help!

    itunes wont install, runtime error R6034 also 'apple mobile device' wont start! help!

    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 (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    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.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I cant connect to my computer with my ipod and itunes wont connect to it either. also i have forgotten my ipod passcode

    i cant connect to my computer with my ipod and itunes wont connect to it either. also i have forgotten my ipod passcode

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    And if necessary

    Update them to what?

    Go into the settings and the app store. there you'll see the options to automatially update purchases. You can turn it off for music or other content. That should keep things from automatically downloading to both your devices.

  • After downloading the latest version of iTunes and updating my iPhone everytime I turn on my computer I get a message that reads: AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found. Does anybody know what this means?

    After downloading the latest version of iTunes and updating my iPhone, everytime I turn on my computer I receive a message that reads: "AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQlite.dll" Help! Does anybody know what this means and how I can fix it? Thanks.

    Yes.  I just solved the problem on my PC.  Here goes...
    Issue:  My Windows7 computer was producing the pop up box with the error text as you described.
    The Problem: You have another application on your computer that uses the like named .DLL file... in this case a DLL supporting SQLite on your local PC.
    Solution: 
    1.  You need to use the Windows File search feature to look for the name "SQLite".  This will quickly locate the offending DLL in the other application.
    2. Decide which program you like the most, in my case "Mobile Me", and uninstall the offending application.
    3.  Uninstall Mobile Me.
    4.  Restart your PC.
    5.  Reinstall Mobile Me.
    6.  Mobile Me should sync at this point, but if not, restart the PC once again.
    In my case, the offending program was my Aptana Studio development application.  I had recently the SQLite3 database to my Ruby On Rails configuration...
    This is where the file was located:
    C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Aptana Studio 2.0\plugins\com.aptana.radrails.sqlite3.win32_3.5.7.1278709071\vendor\SQLite3.d ll
    I hope this helps,

  • HT1373 i have a broken desktop which had my itunes account on it. I am trying to get the information onto a new laptop and itunes programme but cannot. I also cannot get my iphone 5 to be recognized on the new itunes. HELP

    i have a broken desktop which had my itunes account on it.
    I am trying to get the information onto a new laptop and itunes programme but cannot. I have only managed to copy over some of my music as i had it on an external drive.
    I also cannot get my iphone 5 to be recognized on the new itunes.
    HELP

    iTunes as you see it in the application window uses a series of files and folders contained in the iTunes folder.  Some people make the mistake of only backing up their media in which case all you have is a bunch of media files without the iTunes structure.  In that case you have to build a new library yourself.
    What exactly do you mean "not recognized"?  The phone does not show up on the computer at all, or it does but it says it will wipe the phone?  The wipe the phone stuff is again because it cannot find the original library to which it was synced.  You need to transfer the entire iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup you made of it.
