That Free U2 Album that Apple pushed bricked my iPad

I HIGHLY RESENT the Hubris of Apple for pushing this or any other lousy Music Album to our iDevices. I deleted all purchased songs from my iPad, but the only ones I could not deletion after they auto-downlaoded, we the U2 ones. So i went to 'Settings' and deleted 'MUSIC,' but ONE U2 song is still showing in there. So I rebooted and...it bricked my iPad. Dead in the Water. This, after spending about 2 hours of MY LIFE dealing with something I didn't cause. Guess what Apple - I will not purchase any more Music from iTunes, will forego the iPhone6 I was going to Upgrade to, and I now have NO TRUST in APPLE !!!

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If by 'bricked my iPad' you mean that it's not turning on then have you tried a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds.

I heard that apple upgrades recently purchased ipad 3 to 4. How can I implement this ?

Please

Apple have a 14 day returns period for items bought from them, though some US stores are/were apparently allowing 30 days. If you bought it from a different store then you will need to check that store's returns policy.

Look at the iPad apps in the App Store and choose what you want.
The common form of Excel for the iPad is Quickoffice, which is not free.

How can I get a refund for the u2 album that Apple charged me for

I have just been charged £27.99 for the U2 album that I did not want. How do I get a refund for this. I can't stand U2!!

£27.99 for the album ? If you are referring to The Songs Of Innocence album (£7.99) then that was given free to everyone three months ago, and was free until 13th October - you are sure that you've been charged, it's not a temporary store holding charge ? The purchase price should show on your account's purchase history : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store - or http://reportaproblem.apple.com on your iPad.
If you have been charged for the album but you didn't buy it then try contacting iTunes Support via the above 'report a problem' link.
Or you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

For about three weeks I haven't been able to download any apps, not even the free ones. My apple id billing information says that my security code on the back of my credit card is invalid. I called apple support and they told me to go to the express lane website but I still cant find a fix for my problem. If you could help me out that would be superb!!!!

Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, but when I click on the free download, it says that Apple does not support this application, so I cannot use it. This stops me viewing quite a few interesting things. Any ideas?

I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, and when I click for a free download it says that "it is not available for your device because of restrictions that Apple has put in place". Any suggestions on how to overcome this?

Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

When I turn my computer on (Windows 7) I receive a message that Apple wants to make a change to the hardware. I click on yes but nothing happens. The change has something to do with Apple "push". I recently had a problem with"push" on iTunes when I tried to sync my iPod Touch. I have latest software for iTunes and iPod. Can anyone tell me what to do to get this change to install?

Since hardware cannot be changed with software, perhaps you would be so kind as to post the exact wording of the message?

After sharing itunes with MP3 rocket I get a pop up window telling me that my Apple Push is not working at present. Do I need apple push?Everything is working well for me with itunes and Rocket. Also what is Apple push.

I have been sharing itunes with MP3 rocket but I still purchase many songs and books from itunes normally.I have not had any trouble. Just recently a pop up window appears after I have been sharing and it tells me that my Apple Push is not working corectly and windows is looking for the problem. What is Apple Push and do I need it. as everything seems to be working well for me.Can you please advise me.

Has any had you try a reset yet? Sometimes the WiFi & Cellular anntennas get wacky.
Hold Sleep/Wak & Home buttons until the screen goes dark and you see the Apple logo

Since trying to install the latest version of ITunes I have not been able to get it to launch at all! I get a message that says " C:Programme files\common files\Apple\Apple Push service.dll is either not designed to run on windows or contains an error. "

Please help! After I click ok on the error message above I get another message box that says "ITunes not installed Error 7 (Windows error 193)
I have uninstalled it and re-installed it, I have rsn the repair ITunes, I have re doqnloaded Quicktime- nothing will work
Thanks

I also had this issue when one day itunes stopped working for me on windows 8...
the error message I received first was: C:Programme files\common files\Apple\Apple Push service.dll is either not designed to run on windows or contains an error.
followed by: ITunes not installed Error 7 (Windows error 193)
Your response addressed how to fix this issue with earlier windows operating systems, but not for windows 8, so what ended up working for me was your advice applied a little differently. For anyone running windows 8 needing to know how to resolve this issue by repairing the Apple Application Support program, try following these simple steps - what a relief it was to have itunes working again after applying b noir's answer to the windows 8 operating system!
1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Control Panel.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Control Panel.)
2. Click the Programs and Features icon.
3. In the list of programs and features, find the Apple Application Support feature and click to select it.
4. In the gray title bar above it, click Repair.
5. Approve the window prompts that follow until the repair has been completed.
6. Relaunch iTunes.
Hope this helps & good luck!

Is it true that apple approve that they are give the first 101,000 people to get a 5s or a 5c for free ?

No, I meant ther source of the rumor, not how you read it. This should alert you not to believe everything you read from rumor sites. Believe even less if you are informed by third, fourth, fifth, etc. hand reports.

Each time I try to start iTunes after it was closed, it wouldn't start. I have to go to the Task Manager delete Apple Push from processes and only after that iTunes statrs again. What is wrong?

I purchased a MacBook Air in July, 2013. I have later learnt that Apple has made iWorks free for OSX Mavericks users. However, the App Store still shows the package as paid for me. I want to know a way of downloading it for free.

To use an Apple ID, in the iTunes/App store, requires a payment method be associated with your ID. That can be either a credit card, or if no credit card, you can redeem an iTunes gift card. So, do you have a payment method associated with your account?

My Apple TV 2 is slow when trying to move through different menu selections. It is like a slow computer trying to catch up to mouse clicks. It eventually remembers the buttons that were pushed on the remote, but it freezes and takes a minute to catch up.

I had something similar a couple of week ago, it would scroll then stop, scroll then stop.
At some point the porblem went away.
Try unpowering and restarting your AppleTV. Rsetart iTunes too.
