Tried to upgrade to new itunes and now can't load itunes or quicktime

HELP! i tried to upgrade my itunes. This upgrade was totally successful. I then had another problem on my computer so i tried to restore my computer to an earlier timepoint. Since I have done this, I can't load itunes or quicktime. I have tried to uninstall the programs and reinstall them but it still doesn't work. I get an error message on quicktime:
failed to initialize- error-2095
The itunes error message reads :
iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Help- I am going insane with this!!!

I followed a link and somehow ended up at this post from Mike Hogan3 and combined it with something else I came across. This is what worked for me!
1)Follow his suggestions for removing quicktime and itunes (at the end of this message).
2)Then reinstall iTunes from:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
3) Then install QuickTime Standalone Installer from this page (located in the middle right of the page- don't install the one with iTunes!) http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
Hope this works! It did for me!

RE: QuickTime Installation FAILED!! "Error Code: -1"

This might not be exactly the same problem but lots of people (myself included) had problems after installing iTunes 6.0. I did the following and it finally installed correctly.
I went to
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
and downloaded the Cleanup utility near the bottom of that page. When it installs on your machine it will scan your computer for every installer every ran on you're machine. Only select iTunes and Qtime and delete those 2 installers. Then I went to add/remove programs and removed iTunes and Qtime. Prior to this Qtime would not unistall but now it did. Funny thing was there was no prompting by windows once I hit "remove/repair" in the "add/remove programs" function.
Then rerun the iTunes 6.0.1 update. That had been failing to install Qtime prior to this but now it installed and I see all my music again and iTunes works. Let me know if this does the trick, I hope so.

My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends. After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account. I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account

My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends. After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account. I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account, and staring over. I just really want to get the new Ipod under my own account, and be able to use it...

There is no such thing as a "sub-account." Also, you probably mean iTunes library, when you say "account." Your "account" in iTunes is your Apple ID, which is what you use to sign in to the iTunes Store to make purchases. iPods are associated with an iTunes library, not with an Apple ID (iTunes Store account). You'll need to clarify...
So, this is what I think you are saying. You previously shared an iTunes library on a computer with your friend. Your old iPod was synced to that iTunes library.
You got an iPhone, and at that time, you set up your own iTunes library. Is that on a different computer? How does the iPhone affect your question about the iPod?
You got a new iPod. What is your "old iTunes"? Is that the iTunes library you shared with your friend?

I downloaded Yosemite on new iMac and now can no longer open spreadsheet files created using Excel for the iMac. I used to be able to do so on this new computer. What can I do?

I downloaded Yosemite on my new iMac and now can no longer open spread sheet files I created on my old iMac using Excel for the iMac. I used to be able to open these files on my new computer before Yosemite.

I updated the OS on my new ipad and now can't even start a sync with my win7 PC. I had no problem before the OS upgrade - How can I fix it?

I never had a problem synching before I updated the OS on my new ipad and now I can't even start a sync. I have a win7 PC and use the ipad every day. How can I fix this so it syncs again?

I don't have my computer in front of me to check, but when you connect your iPad to your computer and open iTunes, there are options on what to sync. To manually manage music and other options.
If you can sync movies but not music then it suggests that the connection is good, so that part works. Which means it just may be a setting in iTUnes (and I mean iTunes on the computer, not the iPad)

Tried updating to the new IOS and now the phone won't work, suggestions?

I tried to update the newer version of IOS on my Iphone 4S. After the update an Itunes icon and the adapter appeared on my screen.
I tried restoring the phone but it erased all of my data and now I can only take calls. I can no longer make calls and or send or receive text.
Any suggestions, or should I just take it to an Apple Store?
Any and all suggestions are welcome.

That picture is trying to tell you that there is a problem and you must connect it to your computer and restore with iTunes to fix it.

Upgraded to new MBP and now I can't bounce?

I recently upgraded my MPB and now for some reason, when I bounce, the file is empty/silent. I am using all the same gear and the same templates I used on my old computer. Nothing has changed except the computer. I went line by line through every setting with the old computer and everything is the same.
Any insights? I tried bouncing in every format both offline and online. Same results. I also opened the file on my old computer and it bounced just fine.
Help?

Have you tried trashing logic prefs? Or perhaps copy the prefs from your old computer to your MBP, and substitute the current prefs there.
Have you looked in System Preferences... and checked the sound settings?
As a last resort, you can try zapping the PRAM, although that resets every system setting to defaults. Before starting up, press shift-option-p-r (a 'chord') and lift after the second chime.

I had to buy a new computer and now can't get my CS3 with CS5 upgrade to work on windows 8.1. What can I do to get them to load and work?

I can load CS3, but it won't let me register it and I can load CS5 upgrade, but when I open CS5 it shows fault and closes. What can I do to get these programs to work on my new computer?

Registration has always been optional, so there is no point in trying. Those pages on the Adobe site are long gone. CS5 crashing is another matter, but without some crash logs and more detailed system information nobody can realyl know. This could be a mundane permissions issue on some files, could be a crash with the hardware acceleration stuff but just the same could be the activation system failing. Impossible to tell based on your limited information.

I tried to upgrade to iOS 6 and now iPod has a green screen

I tried to upgrade my daughter's iPod. During the upgrade process it was frozen, so I turned the iPod off and when it came back on it just had a green screen. Would not turn off, home button did nothing. I tried plugging it into computer, iTunes doesn't even recognize that I plugged something in.
HELP!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Upgraded to new MacBook and now Office activation is declined because of too many users. How do I delete Office registration for my old computer?

Help please. I upgraded to a new macbook and migrated everything. However, Office will not activate because it says too many copies are active. How do I delete the activiation for my old laptop? Thanks.

Use the Office activation phone number and call the automated activation menu. It will ask you how many installations you have. It will then issue you a new code for your new installation. Make sure your old installation is removed.

I tried to upload the new IOS and now my Ipad is off.. I don't know what to do

Take a look at this Apple Support page:

Hopefully you backed up your iPad before attempting the update.

I opened a new catalog and now can't open my old catalog?

I opened a new catalog in LR and now I cannot find my old catalog with 12K pictures on it? I've googled this, been on YouTube, tried to reach support. Can anyone help?

The file should be in your recently used catalog list (File, Open Recent).
If not then use your operating system to search for all files with the "lrcat" suffix.
Failing those we might need to know the LR version and your OS.

Upgraded MobileMe to iCloud and now can't connect to my Time Capsule at home with Back to My Mac

I upgraded my MobileMe account to iCloud yesterday and now I can't connect to my Time Capsule when I am away from my home network. I had been able to using Back to My Mac with my MobileMe account. Now the airport utility still only shows a mobileme option in the advanced settings. Is there an update for the time capsule so that I can input my iCloud information?

Apparently this isn't possible. This was never discussed publicly before the iCloud launch. All that was said was Back to my Mac would continue working. I looked everywhere and couldn't find anything, even after the iCloud launch. Made the switch, my AirPort started yelling at me because of MobileMe credentials. I've been waiting for an AirPort update but have still been digging. Just found this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4867
Talk about a footnote. This should have its own article, not be like, "Oh everything will still work great! ... ... ...
Except for AirPort disk sharing."
I'm not too happy about this.
