When I open iTunes, it asks me to download the latest version. When I click on "download now", nothing happens. If I download directly from the iTunes website, do I need to do anything first? Like deleting something?
In the normal course of events, you can update by just running the iTunesSetup.exe. No special precautions need to be taken (beyond those you usually take with an update, or just in general, like maintaining a current backup).

I have read all of the related threads. I have fully uninstalled and reinstalled all of itunes program as detailed in trouble shooting. I have confirmed that the program file for the apple mobile device driver is present. When i open itunes manually i receive an error message that says "itunes cannot find cd burning registry whihc can be due to other cd burners being installed...please reinstall itunes". I have reinstalled itunes as described above TWICE and receive the same error message and it doesnt see my iphone. when i connect the phone to the usb, it shows up in devices and printers with an exclamation point saying the trouble shooting is required (windows message). I am running windows 7 64 bit which is the version of itunes that i downloaded (twice).
"itunes cannot find cd burning registry whihc can be due to other cd burners being installed...please reinstall itunes".
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

I updated my iPad OS to and also updated iTunes to 11.1.2 and selected iTunes as restore while still sync with the HP Laptop. Now when I open Notes every note is gone! I have to get all my notes back someone please help! Thanks 728
Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

Can somebody help me get rid of these exclamation points so that I can download all my songs to my iPod? Please? I don't know why they appeared, as I did have the songs working before and they were on my iPod. But, I didn't want ALL of them on there and I didn't know I could "select" which songs to send to the iPod. However, it's been a few months since I messed with it. But, yesterday, when I went to select my songs, I noticed all these excalamation points on everything that was there. Help, please! Again, I can't play them from my computer AND they won't download to my iPod!
Thanks,This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

I want to open the iTunes library on my new laptop with all the playlists and stuff I built on the old computer. I have all my music on an external drive. I have copied the .itl file from the old computer and opened it on the laptop, and it has all the playlists, but all of the songs that were added to iTunes up to a certain date have broken links. What am I doing wrong?
Moving library files around while leaving the data in the same place usually presents no problems. Moving the data around independently from the library usually breaks things. With Windows machines all you should need to do is make sure that the same drive letter is being used on the new system as with the old. If that is not possible you need to get your library into a portable layout before moving it between systems.
Typical layout of iTunes folders:
When the media folder is inside the main iTunes folder as shown above then the library is portable. Typically with a split library the iTunes Music or iTunes Media folder (everything inside the red outline) is moved to a different drive by choosing a new locaton for it and then consolidating.
To make the library portable again you need to copy the library files and album artwork folder into the parent folder of the media folder so that the nested relationship is recreated. (BTW If your media isn't already inside your designated media folder then you will also need to consolidate the files that are outside of it, before you copy the library files.) You can then use the hold-down-shift-when-starting-iTunes method to open the library file in that parent folder. Once the library has been opened, tested and closed you are most of the way there.
The iTunes window inherits its title from the folder holding the library files so, unless you created a folder called iTunes to hold the media folder, iTunes may now have an unexpected title when you run it. The parent folder can be renamed as iTunes, and the library opened again. Alternatively, if the parent folder is at the root of the drive, or has other data which you wish to leave in place, you can create a new top level folder called iTunes and move the library files, album artwork and media folders into it before opening and testing the library again.
If the library doesn't work after any step simply reverse it by undoing a move or rename or opening the previous set iTunes Library.itl file.
If all has gone well then the library is now portable. Once you've migrated the data to a new system you can copy the library files back to their usual internal location if you find that having them on the external drive affects performance...

When writing emails the left hand margin is so close to the edge of the page that some characters disappear from view on the left hand of the page. How can I set the left hand margin to not be so close to the left edge of the page?
Oy. You beat your head for hours and finally concede to asking for help, only to solve it two minutes later. Here's the answer.
In the inspector, on the Layout tab, there's a checkbox that reads, "Show Thumbnail Track".
UNCHECK that box and the gutter goes away. -

This happened about twenty minutes ago and I'm frantic trying to get it back.
I've tried all the stuff I can find online, turning it off and on again and nothing will work!
I even tried restoring old libraries to see if that would work but still nothing!
