Please Help - Novice - ITunes update lost my sound.
I have spent all day trying to sort this out, please help.
My IPhone asked me to update ITunes to the latest version, I did this, updated the IPhone as well and then added some music, after it synced I noticed my sound icon had gone and when I tried to play music/video's there was no sound on the computer at all.
I uninstalled ITunes and Quick time and re-installed, no change, I did a system restore back a day and the sound came back but ITunes reverted to the older version and when I plugged in the IPhone is said it could not access it as the library was created on a newer version.
I use windows XP, have checked the Sound in Control Panel and nothing is registered, Direct X says no sound card attached, I have tried downloading Direct X again, in the Devices Manager is has a Multimedia device listed with the yellow? mark, I have gone through trying to update drivers but nothing works.
The only way I can get the sound back is a system restore but then ITunes is out of date and will not access my phone, if I then update ITunes from the website it takes off the sound again so I am going round in circles, has anyone else had this problem or has anyone got any advise.. please keep in mind I am not very technical..
try just move the .dll file from C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes (or C:\Program Files\iTunes for window 32 bit) to desktop. reboot should fix it. if not you have to reinstall itunes(http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923) choose repair if one component does not work.

I downloaded AnyDVD so I'd be able to burn dvd's on my pc. While doing this I think I may have screwed my Itunes up. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling all AnyDVD, Itunes, Quicktime programs. The problem I'm having is when I bring up Itunes and try burning a cd it says "disc burner or software not found." I ran diagnostic check on Itunes and this is what I get. Keep in mind when I checked the drivers for my pc SlySoft came up on all of them. SlySoft is the program for AnyDVD.

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.

Is there a program out there that will let me run the AnyDVD program along with Itunes and be able to use Itunes 100%???? Please help... Lost in NYJust deleted all other (ANyDVD, Decoder and shrink) programs, uninstalled Itunes and Quicktime; reinstalled Itunes 7.3 and Quicktime 7. Thanks for all the help. Randy

HT4623 Please help me to update iOS 7.0.3
Please help me to update iOS 7.0.3
Read though the article you referenced to find out how to update to the latest iOS level (which is now iOS 7.0.4)
See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

please help me to update and restore my iphone 5? beacause after updating to iOS 7, i can no longer updater and restore my phone. it always comes in error
I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps. Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
Please follow this steps:
1) Double tap the home button
2) Hold down on an icon
3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
5) Tap Settings
6) Tap General
7) Tap Reset
8) Tap Network Settings
Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again.
Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7.
Otherwise I'm having a little success with this. Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all). So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process. -
please help me < when update my i phone 3G < i finish update but face problem , appear me msg There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone You ar attempting to activate. Please disconnect
Sounds like your phone was hacked to use with your carrier. Updating it has relocked the phone to it's original carrier. You will not get the phone working again without a SIM from the original carrier.

Please help! Itunes fails to open on my macbook pro. I have removed itunes and reinstalled it and it still will not work!
Try removing the Genius database. In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ folder and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.

1. Go to the “Preferences” folder (Win: C:\Users\Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Preferences
2. Delete “Lightroom 5 Preferences.agprefs” should it be there
3. Rename the “Preferences” folder to “PreferencesXY”

Of course, the user may not want a new catalog ... in fact, most people don't want a new catalog ... -
HT2311 Help! iTunes update 10.7 will not open: What to do??
Help! iTunes update 10.7 will not open: WHAT TO DO?
Recently I updated to Snow Leopard from 10.5.8 and then updated to 10.6.8. The recent update to itunes 10.7 has completely failed as iTunes fails to boot up and just send a message to Apple. So now I cannot access my music library. I tried deleting the new iTunes 10.7 and reinstalling iTunes 10.6.3 and also 10.3.1 with exactly the same result. I did the installation after turning off as many background software items as I could like Sophos Anti Virus and Little Snitch. This makes one want to give up on software updates - I have had an increasing number of failures as my machine gets to 5 years old.

Model: MacBook3,1, BootROM MB31.008E.B02, 2 processors, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.2 GHz, 4 GB, SMC 1.24f3

hello .. i am using mavericks OS and it is showing it needs updates about 800 meg. and every time i download that it dosent do anything and again it is beginig to download again and again that.. please help me. the update is 10.9.2
To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step. -

Hello please help me! I updated the itunes on my desktop and once I plugged up my phone it automatically started restoring my phone now all my info, contact, pics, and videos are gone.
Restore your iTunes or iCloud backup to your device: iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or ...
If you do not have an available backup, then your data is lost permanently. Start over. The good news is that any iTunes or App Store purchases can be redownloaded by using your Apple ID that was used to purchase/download the content. -

I am trying to update a 4s. The update did not work for some reason. Now I need to restore the iPhone. When I connect the usb to the computer and phone it says I need to restore. So, I click to restore. It starts extracting the software. But I am continually getting the same error message that it cannot complete for unknown error. I have been working on this for 5 and a half hours. I'm tired, mu husband needs his phone and apple support is a joke and of course I can't find any answers anywhere. Please help!
Hi MB2751,
As an iPhone user myself, I know it must be very much a problem to have the phone out of service because of an error such as you are seeing. Let's see if we can get you back up and running.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

Free v2.1 update for a new 16 GB iPod Touch owner?
Hello. Shouldn't new owners of iPod Touch (e.g., 16 GB and two days old) get v2.1 upgrade for free and not $9.95? I assume this is a firmware upgrade. Thank you in advance.
