On the taskbar and in the start menu, iTunes only shows a default icon. How can I get the iTunes icon back?
I know it is only a petty thing, but it is really annoying me.
It has only come about since the last update
I have tried rebuilding my Icon cache, and unpinning the shortcuts and creating new ones, neither has worked.
It is really niggling at me - any ideas? I'm on windows 7, and all my updates are current, and my virus scan clear.
By "tabs", do you mean something like this -
If that is what you see, then you may be right-clicking on the icon instead of left-clicking on it.
Right-clicking or Control-clicking on an icon in the Dock will bring up a menu like that (it is a contextual menu, so its content varies a bit from program to program).
Usually, it is necessary to only click an icon in the Dock once in order to start up the program (if it has been quitted) or make it active (if it has not been quitted).

Do you have a backup, Time Machine or clone?
If not you'll need to log into AppStore and redownload and install Lion.
It should be in Purchases. -

i was updating software and suddenly my IPHONE started asking for I tunes on mobile screen , how can i get by screen back or How i can restore without loosing data , I m more worried about data , Please help in resolutio
What exactly are you seeing on the phone's screen ? If the iTunes icon and cable then the phone is in recovery mode, in which case it's too late to take a new backup or to copy any content off the phone - you will have to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and reset it back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to the last backup that you took or just resync your content to it

I forgot the backup encryption password in iTunes how can I get my backup data back?
I forgot the backup encryption password in iTunes how can I get my backup data back?
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Not true at all.
You only buy the right to your own personal use.
You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
This is illegal. There is no doubt about it -

I used to have a Yahoo tab shown when yahoo was opened. Now it says "Getting Started" How can I get my Yahoo tab back? Thank you.
Set Yahoo as you home page, and set firefox to open the homepage when it starts. (Not to open previous pages).
* see [[how to set the home page]] for detailed instructions <br/> all you need to do is drag the icon whilst you are on the page you require
* see also [[options window - General panel]] -
When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad? I don't want to lose my apps and photos!
Help would be much appreciated!If you are getting the connect to iTunes screen then it's too late to take a new backup and/or copy anything off it. Prior to starting the update did you take a backup, either to the cloud and/or to your computer's iTunes ? If not then have you recently taken a backup that might have your photos and apps content/settings in it ?
As long as the apps are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them via the Purchased tab in the App Store app (and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes), and if the apps store their content on a server/cloud service then you might be able to get their content back from that - if they store their content on the device then you will need to have a backup.
For our photos you could try doing a search for programs that claim to be able to recover content from a device - I haven't used any so I can't suggest one. -
