  • Itunes wont open need help backing up music on external hard drive

    My itunes wont open after upgraded to 8 , ive uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and quicktime and still wont work. i found a topic to possibly help me but i dont know how to tranfer my music to an external disk drive without being able to open itunes. i am getting so frustrated. please help

    A usb hard drive that Windows sees doesn't need software for a simple back up.
    Format the hard drive Disk Management, if it doesn't come already formatted, and then drag and drop the iTunes folder and whatever other data you want to back up to it.
    What you're describing doesn't sound like something iTunes did. If you're having general install troubles you have another problem with your system and it's time for a little troubleshooting to find out what's really going on.

  • Older page documents wont open

    Can't seem to open old Pages documents in either '08 or '06
    They were saved fine, and haven't been touched since.
    Saw a previous report saying its the XML file. I replaced it with the fle of one that opened and found it relates to all the image file locations.
    Is there anyway of converting, opening or importing the document so I can retrieve the data?
    Thanks

    The important part of a Pages document is the Index.xml.gz file.
    If you replace it by one grabbed from an other document, you will get this other document minus the inserted pictures.
    What was the exact contents of the 'previous report saying its the XML file'?
    What have you made with the original Index.xml.gz file ?
    If you didn't keep it all is lost.

  • Itunes wont open- need help!

    Whenever i try to open my itunes it says "itunes has encountered an error and needs to close." Ive tried repairing itunes, reinstalling itunes, uninstalling quicktime and installing the standalone version, and then installn ewido anti-mallware and trying to remove some of those inected files. Nothing has worked and ive read through some of the post at i cant find anything else. Please leave me some suggestions! thanks
    adam

    The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevents it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
    If that doesn't cure the problem, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistance the next time you run it and you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes 6 wont open Need Help!!

    I recently installed the newest version of iTunes (6.0.4.2). Every time i try to launch it i get an error message that reads "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" in the error report it says
    AppName: itunes.exe AppVer:6.0.4.2 ModName: quicktime.qts ModVer: 7.0.4.80 Offset: 000346f0"
    I have no idea what any of this means or what is causing my iTunes to not open but its really starting to frustrate me, i have tried reinstalling it several times and i still get the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    hi allstarpirate!
    Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close
    the first thing that i check for when people report getting that message when they try to launch their itunes is a broken QuickTime.
    try to open your QuickTime. does it launch properly, or do you get an error message?
    if you get an error message, the first thing we'll try is a careful standalone QT 7.0.4 reinstall.
    download and save a copy of 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 that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
    (if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    love, b

  • Numbers file wont open. please help asap!

    I've been workin on a Numbers file for some days and have always safed it at the end of the day. Today i wanted to open it but i keep on getting this error that it can not be opened. Does anybody know a quick solution to it?

    Not enough information to hazard a guess.
    What is the error message that is displayed?
    What version of the Mac OS is running on yout MBP? If you have updated to this version from an earlier version, how was that update done?
    What version of Numbers '09 are you using?
    All of these may be factors in solving the issue.
    A quick solution would be to open your most recent backup copy of this file and rebuild from that. This solution, of course requires that you have a recent backup copy available, something that is, I suspect, not true for the majority of us on the first occasion that we need one.

  • LOGIC WONT OPEN NEED HELP PLEASE!!

    so i have logic pro 8 on my computer and i click the icon it bounces up and down a couple times and will ask me which sort of template that i want to use.
    After clicking on a template my mouse turns into the spin wheel and then it say that logic is not responding.
    It has done this now for a few days and a few days before this i couldnt even get to the template menu.
    After deleting the application all together and deleting the preferences i got one step closer. Is there anyone out there that can help me?
    i am not to computer savy so please give me routes to take with your help.

    i understand that logic is a serious program for only serious users. that is why i use it. i meant i am used to working with the registry on a pc not a mac. i can understand anything you ask me to do as long as i get a route. so like i said i uninstalled the program and reinstalled it twice now, as well as deleting the following files out of the user preferences.
    com.apple.logic.pro.plist
    com.apple.logic.pro.cs
    still i get nowhere. i also deleted all the logic files that say (crashed).
    i also tried creating a new user account and opening the program from there
    i get the same error every time.
    i have now gotten to the point where logic is trying to load the audio files, but the arrange window still never pops up and then the program will no longer respond.
    So w/o the sarcasm i could use a little help. D-bags

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 12 Is Not Opening (Need Help ASAP)

    Hello,
    I tried to start up the program and it won't start. Previously, I would have the problem of my software not starting when I clicked on the icon. I found a way to get around that, but now it isn't starting at all. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program and nothing has changed. All I get now is a pop-up box that says  that the program has stopped working. I really don't know what to do!
    Computer Information:
    Windows Edition : Windows Vista Home Premium  2007
    Computer Type: Sony Vaio
    Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T3200 @2.00GHz
    Memory (RAM): 3.00GB

    taylor_peterson92
    You realize that you are not using Premiere Elements 12/12.1 optimally on Windows Vista be it 32 or 64 bit. You still have a Premiere Elements 12/12.1 32 bit application which has computer resource issues when trying to get a larger project taken to completion successfully. With the 32 bit system, the maximum supported installed RAM = 4 GB, typically with 3.2 to 3.0 GB or less of that available. And, you appear to have only 3 GB RAM to start with.
    It sounds like it may have worked before from what you wrote. How long ago did it work? And, what was your last activity in a project before you could no longer get the program to open. Are working with a home computer or is this computer part of a company network?  In your present computer environment moving to Premiere Elements 13 is not a choice since Premiere Elements 13 does not support Windows Vista 32 or 64 bit.
    You could go through the usual drill
    a. Latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 12/12.1?
    b. Running program from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    c. Video card/graphics card up to date according to web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    d. Does problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    e. Where do you have the Scratch Disks directed and how much free hard drive space is at that location?
    f. Did you install the program to the default location on the Local Disk C?
    What was your way of getting the program to work previously when problems developed?
    Let us consider the above and then we can decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!

    I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

    Try this. It worked for me.
    I discovered the same problem.  I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format.  Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story.  Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
    These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
    FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
    SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop.  Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
    THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work.  iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app.  Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
    FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP."  ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
    FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself).  Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT:  iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
    Hope this helps. Good luck.
