Re-Installing itunes only

My itunes has is apparently wanting to hang when i try to sync just about anything. attempting to sync either ipod or iphone will normally result in a hang.  In osx yosemitie, how do you completely remove itunes only and re install it?
This is the error i'm getting

Done that already, installed 12.1 and it's still hanging.  Re Downloading doesnt seem to remove all settings and start over (which i think is corrupted or something)  I think at this point i need to remove itunes completely and reinstall it.

  • TS3212 everytime that I try to connect my ipod to itunes, the message says that the program is not installed properly. I have had three I T techs help me re-install itunes only to continue to get this message. my computer sees the ipod, but itunes does no

    everytime that I try to connect my ipod to itunes, a message says the the program is not downloaded properly and needs to be re-installed. I had three different I T techs do this and I get the same message each time I try to connect. can anyone help ?

    This can sometimes be the result of a faulty/damaaged USB sync cable.  Do you have another cable you could test it out with?

  • Problem of installing iTune

    Hello Folks!
    I've been trying to install the latest version of itunes on XP and not having much success. I only get so far before this particular message comes up:
    Error writing to file: c:\Program files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\CFNetwork.resource\Fi.lproj\Localalizable.  strin gs. Verify that you have access to that directory.
    This is all a bit bewildering to me.
    I uninstalled everything to do with Apple from my computer several times and tried re-installing itunes only to encountered the same problem.
    I would very much appreciate any help anyone could extend to me to overcome this problem. I miss itunes already!
    Thanks,
    Alvin

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Since updating an iphone5 to ios8.3, it is no longer recognized by my pc. An Apple tech suggested that I install itunes as the only way to assure that I have the latest driver. Any way to do this without installing itunes?

  • HT201413 I Installed iTunes on Windows XP laptop, connected my iPad 3.  When opening iTunes I only get the list LIBRARY STORE and PLAYLIST.  But I can not see a tab "devices"  where mu iPad appears??

    HI, I need help to transfer a vidoe from my laptop Windows XP to iPad3.  Installed iTunes.  Opened iTunes, Connected PC and iPad.  iTunes does not show iPad under a "Devices" category ? Why?? How do I transfer the vidoe.  PC does show pictures that are on the iPad when I open the iPad files.

    You can only add music to iTunes Match from your iTunes library on your computer, not from your iOS device.  If you have music on your iPad that is not on your computer, you'll have to import it to your iTunes library on your computer to add it to iTunes Match. 
    Music purchased from the iTunes store can be imported directly to your iTunes library by authorizing your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then connecting the iPad to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Music from other sources will require using 3rd party software to transfer to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

  • HT1692 Have recently installed itunes and outlook on a new computer.  Have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, Help!

    My new computer is 64-bit running Windows 7 pro, SP1 and Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus 32-bit
    My phone is a 4S runing iOS 6.1.3
    Very frustrated now that I have recently installed itunes and outlook on this new computer.  Everything worked perfectly ok on my laptop which was also 64-bit Windows 7 and running 32-bit Microsoft Office 2010 Pro.  I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, when I sync the calendar and contacts are empty.  Not sure if there is any way to point itunes to particular address books and calendars.
    I have installed and uninstalled itunes 3 times and thank goodness have a backup
    Can anyone help please?
    thanks in anticipation

    I had my home computer set up to sync to work's Exchange server. It worked well, but I didn't like seeing work email messages and other programs trying to sync with my default Outlook folder, which was then the Exchange (& work related) .ost file. I know there are various ways to manage those problems using filters, view, subfolders, etc., but it was a hassle for me. I think it could work well for many other folks.
    For now, I have published my work calendar and subscribed to that calendar on my home computer. So I have view only access to my calendar on my home computer (and I can add/edit calendar items on my iPad (or Outlook Web Access) when away from work). This is not quite what I wanted, but it may work.
    It almost makes me long for the days when I used my Windows Mobile Treo to sync back and forth between exchange at work and outlook at home (but had many sync conflicts as a result).

  • I have a toshiba computer with a new hard drive. when i installed itunes,all of my purchased music appeared. now i can only find it in my account history. how do i get my purchased music to appear in my libary again?

    hello

    Media is only where the user puts it.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old drive or the backup of the computer to the new drive.
    Installing iTunes has never caused media to magically appear on a computer. 

  • Installed itunes 10.5.2 on my laptop and now it only runs in safe mode HELLLLP!!!

    I installed itunes 10.5.2 on my laptop and when it rebooted after it said that it could not connect to my ipod because of something to do with "apple mobile device" I tried unsuccessfully to find an answer and whilst trying to find an anwer my laptop froze and crashed and everything said it was not responding that was when it actually opened anything.
    I've found the solution to get it to connect to the mobile devices however my laptop will only run in safe mode and i cant fix the problem in safe mode!!
    My question is if I uninstall and reinstall itunes will i lose all my playlists? or does anyone have a solution to fix my itunes????????

    The Apple launch issues article suggests pulling 3rd-party plug-ins if the problem doesn't happen in Safe Mode.

    You don't install iTunes on your phone. iTunes is a program that runs on your computer. As RG asked, please explain more clearly what it is you are trying to accomplish.

  • HT201413 when i installed itunes in my old computer it would disable my CD burner and I was only able to burn through itunes. has this problem been resloved or will i have the same problem when i download it into my new computer?

    When I installed itunes into my old computer (loaded with Windows Vista) it deleated my CD burner and would only allow me to burn via itunes - I had to go in to Best Buy to have them fis the problem but was told not to download new updates for itunes or it would do the same. with this fix I am not able to burn CDs from itunes which is a bummer.  If I download itunes onto my new  computer (loaded with Windows 7) is it going to do the same thing or has  this problem been resolved?

    Copy them from your old computer, or your backuo copy of your old computer. to your new one.
    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  the exception is itunes purchases.

    Hi just wanted to let you know I solved most of my XP problems with my new IPOD. It won't recognise the IPOD or driver and froze and locked up and then the battery died. After hours of trying different things here is what I did. I completly closed computer down. Waited 15 minutes turned on and reloaded everything. I put the usb cable in but not hooked up to IPOD. I turned off Mcaffee (all of it). After my computer came on. I then went and closed everything I didn't need in the bottom toolbar. (taskbar). I then reloaded the software and waited. Took forever to reload and I don't know why but whatever it worked but I DID NOT HOOK UP THE IPOD LIKE IT SAID! I instead shut down the computer after loading the software and waited 5 minutes and turned it back on. I again waited and shut of mcaffee. It loaded everything fine this time and said new hard ware and drivers detected. I plugged my IPOD in and YES I WAS UP AND RUNNING (THIS IS AFTER 6 HOURS OF PLAYING WITH OTHER THINGS!) I am able to load and play, burn, watch movies, see pictures and everything your suppose too! The only thing I see different than the instructions is I left my usb cable plugged in and when it said to eject the disk I didn't. I also didn't plug in the IPOD (5th Gen) and then I shut down waited and then restarted the computer. I hope this helps others because I know the feeling of wanting to return something you paid dearly for and worked hard at saving money to buy one and it doesn't work. My only thing I dislike about apple is they didn't supply a ac adapter for the IPOD and the instructions say to plug it up when trying to charge battery. DUHHHHHH, ya can't do that if ya don't have one and stores are closed and won' open until Monday! But at least I am up and running. I just hate having to plug up IPOD to computer daily to charge the battery which only last a half a day1

  • After installing itunes every icon on my screen becomes an itunes icon and no matter what you hit only the itunes page appears.

    I have a Dell 570 PC.  I use internet explorer and Yahoo.  When I finish installing iTunes every icon on my screen becomes an iTunes icon. No matter what icon I hit only the iTunes page appears.  Help

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Your MacBook already comes with iTunes. What iTunes is telling you is probably to update it to the most recent version, so open  > Software Update, and install the most recent iTunes version, in this case, 11.0.4.
    Enjoy your new MacBook Pro
