Software updates do not install because "restart" fails. Powered off then on and still will not complete the updates. What can I try?

Recently noticed software updates were not occuring. "Restart" will not complete and tried just powering off and all but still no luck. Not real savy on troubleshooting so need some step by step advise.
Thanks for any help.

I have tried this twice to no avail.... any answers ? Thank You

Hello Debbie,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes. It sounds like you have tried reinstalling iTunes twice, but you may need to reinstall Microsoft's .NET Framework:
Resolution
This issue may be caused by a bad installation of a version of Microsoft's .NET Framework. It's important to note that versions 2.0, 3.5, and 4.0 can all exist side-by-side. Click the arrow next to your OS to reveal links to the versions of Microsoft's .NET Framework that are applicable to your OS; you will need to download and install ALL of these. These links will take you to a download page. Click the download button on this page and click Save in the subsequent window to save the installer to your Downloads folder.
Windows XP:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP 1Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=0a391abd-25c1-4fc0-9 19f-b21f31ab88b7Windows Vista:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP 1
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
Note: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 is already installed as part of Windows Vista. You can not modify the installation of this version of the .NET Framework in Windows Vista.
Windows 7:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
Note: Microsoft .NET Framework versions 2.0 and 3.5 are already installed as part of Windows 7. You can not modify the installations of these versions of the .NET Framework in Windows 7.
To resolve this issue, run these installers one at a time and follow the instructions on screen to install each applicable version of the .NET Framework. If this version of the .NET Framework is already installed, you may see a screen similar to the one shown below.
If you see this screen, select Repair and then click Next to repair the installation of the .NET Framework.

ITunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install. Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2. Any Thoughts?

iTunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install. Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2. Any Thoughts?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component won't install normally.
If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.

How do I install recommended updates, when I click on adobe flash plugin update now buttons, I hit a dead end on oracle's website, how do I complete the update?

How do I install recommended updates, when I click on adobe flash plugin update now buttons, I hit a dead end on oracle's website, how do I complete the update?

First, grab the Adobe uninstaller from here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
Then download Flash 10.3.183.90 from here - about halfway down the page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
(Released 6/11/2013) Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (61.1 MB)
IMO, the best version of Flash for WinXP. Adobe kept up with security updates for 10.3 for WinXP users long after Flash 11.0 came out in 2011 for Vista and newer versions of Windows.
Run the uninstaller, then reboot your operating system.
Then you can run the Flash installer, with Firefox closed, of course.
''Note, if you still use IE you'll need to reinstall the ActiveX version of Flash for IE. That uninstaller removes all versions of Flash that might be installed,''

Hi there 8472kck!
I have some information for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. That information can be found right here:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
and that information comes from this article:

I cannot seem to load raw images into LR 2.5. I've been using this for years. I always load from memory card, but it gives me an unknown error message. I tried to load from camera, hard drive, & external drive and still will not work. I checked import

I cannot seem to load raw images into LR 2.5. I've been using this for years. I always load from memory card, but it gives me an unknown error message. I tried to load from camera, hard drive, & external drive and still will not work. I checked import menu and nothing has changed. I loaded the photos onto my tablet and images are fine, so do not feel it is the memory card. Any thoughts?

The error message probably said "unsupported or damaged"
The T3 requires Lightroom 3.4.1 or later. You can either upgrade to a more current version of Lightroom (version 5.6 is the most recent) or you can use the free Adobe DNG Converter to convert the RAWs to DNG, which should import into Lightroom properly.

TS1362 I downloaded two cd's last night and I am un able to play some songs cause it tells me I am this computer is unauthorized to play some songs,I did what it said about going to store to get authorized and still will not work,not happy at all!

I downloaded two cd's last night and I am un able to play some songs cause it tells me I am this computer is unauthorized to play some songs,I did what it said about going to store to get authorized and still will not work,not happy at all! I NEED HELP OR MY MONEY BACK NOW!

There seems to be an occasional issue with downloads from the store. They prompt for authorization when they are in fact corrupt/incomplete in some fashion. Try deleting the problem tracks (do not hide from iTunes in the cloud), close iTunes and reopen, go to iTunes Store > Qucklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer. Select a few tracks to download then click the icon that appears at the top-right of the iTunes window.. Untick the box that reads Allow simultaneous downloads. Proceed with the rest of your eligible purchases.
If you still have a problem use the Report a problem links in your account history to contact the iTunes Store support team.

FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally.
If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
Try resetting Network Settings
Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.
