Update/Installation of itunes 10 disables network card

Installation of latest itunes version (10) results in disabling my network card. The only way I've been able to restore is a system restore. I own 3 ipods and am totally frustrated with support structure. I have tried the following with no success.
Uninstall all Apple software as per a support article. 1) itunes 2)Quicktie 3) Apple Soft Upd 4) Mobile Dev Sup 5) Bonjour 6) Apple Applic Supp. Followed by a manual cleanup of the associated program files director and system32 directories.
I finally located a version 9.1 download but get msg that later version is installed. I followed another support tip for renaming library. Tried with several previous library files and could not find one that would allow install to continue.
Does anyone have ideas? Please, please, please.

I am having the same problem here, and am EXTREMELY frustrated... I was so excited to download the new iPad OS. Argh, I hate iTunes. Have you found a solution? Okay so here are my details:
I'm operating a homemade PC on a FoxCon Motherboard, with a RealTek built in wired LAN port.
Running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
I first tried upgraded from within iTunes. needed to a computer restore to get network back up and running. Tested all the hardware first to ensure it wasn't hardware.
After retoring, iTunes was broke. I downloaded from the web and tried to install. iTunes was still broke, and the network died again.
Needed to do a system restore again.
Completely uninstalled iTunes from the system. Ran Windows Update to ensure I had all of the updated drivers.
Redownloaded and installed iTunes 10.1 again, and once again, it broken the network connection.
I downloaded the motherboard and LAN port drivers from their website on another machine, and installed them via a USB port on the machine with iTunes. No change.
I uninstalled iTunes again.
Called support
They had me setup a new user on the computer, then uninstall Bonjour, 2 Apple software (Mobile and serice), and Quicktime and restart the computer. When the computer came back on I logged in as the new user and the network was again broke.
Did system restore back to after I did the windows update earlier today.
He had me uninstall the apple services again, and then setup the new user. By the time I got to this point the network was down again.
He asked me to a restart, no fix.
He transfered me to a senior support person who didn't have any other ideas.
I tried using the iTunes installation file I saved from before to reinstall now that everything was off, hoping it might reset the network, it did not.
I've restored the system again back to the Windows Update earlier today and am very unsatisfyingly giving up and waiting for Apple's Support Engineers to get back to me in a few days. If anyone knows of any other solutions, my iPad will thank you after it gets updated.

  • Boot Camp Windows 8.1 Installation Did Not Install Network Card

    I just installed a Windows 8.1 Boot Camp partition on a new Mid 2013 MBA. The install ran the support software and installed the drivers. However I don't show any network cards in my Windows 8.1 installation. I reran the support sw manually and it went through and supposedly fixed any driver errors but I still don't see a network card or have a network connection. It works just fine in my OSX partition, so it is definately a driver issue. *** do I need to do to get the network driver installed?

    In Thehatters defence, this was initially posted in the MacbookPro forum and then moved to Boot Camp,
    If you have any joy solving your trackpad device driver issue, feel free to post here (there might be a similar fix for my  wireless adapter device)

  • Installation of wireless pci network card

    In all the research I have gone through in order to decide what wireless network card I would use, I keep seeing from time to time a reference to which mac operating system version should be in place prior to installation of card. This I found was particularly for NIC(PCI cards) that had 802.11B,G
    protocol. There was a caution to use mac osx version 10? is this correct (am I reading this correctly?)or can These NIC(PCI Cards) still run correctly with any version of mac osx?
    apple g4 powermac G4   Mac OS X (10.0.x)  

    Are you really using 10.0.X?
    I remember having about zero success with networking anything with 10.0.X, ethernet or wireless.
    Yeah, I think you'll have variable results depending on which version of OS X you're running.
    Back to subject:
    I just bought a Buffalo WCI2-PCI-G54S at BestBuy tonight for $39.99
    I have 10.3.9 on a G4 466Mhz machine.
    Put it in a PCI slot, attached the antenna and restarted.
    OS X 10.3.9 found it pretty quickly and auto-configured the Network settings for; I was not expecting this and am still really impressed. I wtched my network status indicator as it turned GREEN.
    All I had to do was turn-on Airport at the top of my screen and select my Base Station, that was it!
    Works great. Not sure if I can print to my Old Trusty Laserwriter since it needs AppleTalk, but we'll see.
    By the way; this is a low-profile(half-height) PCI card and using a BroadCom Chip set.
    Good Luck!

  • Screen Lock is Disabling Network Card

    Hey Guys,
    This may sound a little crazy but whenever i am locking my screen i seem to be losing my network connection.
    is this standard or am i missing a setting somewhere?
    Anyone else experienced this?
    I am locking my screen as i am using it at work and need a way to lock my computer when away from my desk and i assume this is the best way.

    The slide to unlock is required after the iPhone's screen is set to sleep regardless if you have the Passcode lock feature enabled or auto-lock. This is to prevent an app on the home screen from being pressed or a selection for an app that was selected when putting the screen to sleep if the screen is turned on while in your pocket for example.
    3rd party apps cannot run in the background, but included apps can such as the Mail client if automatically check for new mail is selected, with the SMS app for receiving text, etc.
    There is not a way to disable the slide to unlock when waking the iPhone or the iPhone's screen from sleep.

  • Windows, RAC and network card problems... ?

    Dear friends,
    I've a problem! :)
    Here are some info:
    Node Hardware:
         Processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7430 @2.13GHz (2 processors)
         Installed memory(RAM): 52.0 GB
         System type: 64-bit OS
         Windows edition: Windows server 2008 R2 Enterprise
    Network cards (Shown by WIN):
         PublicLAN: HP NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter
         PrivateLAN: HP NC373T PCle Multifunction Gig Server Adapter
         Offline: HP NC373T PCIe Multifunction Gig Server Adapter
    Software:
         Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise (Very last updates from MS)
         Oracle RAC 11.2.0.2.0 (Clusterware, DB) – 2 nodes
    Environment:
         AD network. Everything is MS based.
    Problem description:
    During RAC installation, company had only one network card (server network card, per node). Installation was successfully finished. RAC was/is in production. Has some problems, but noting for alarm.
    This days, we get other network cards. (purpose: network redundancy).
    RAC shutdown was clean.
    Network card inserted to nodes by OS Admin.
    Nodes was started up... and...
    OS Admin disabled network card immediately after logon screen was available... but to late...
    Windows changed network card order!!! PublicLAN was not at the first place when Cluster started (Network and sharing center -> change adapter settings -> Advanced (from menu) -> Advanced Settings -> Adapters and Bindings)!!! (I found in logs that MAC address changed at this point!)
    Cluster started hardware reconfiguration... and... we could not stop CW till starting up finished... ! After stopping CW again, we set PublicLan at first place, and every win setting was as at the moment of installation.
    Cluster was started again, DB, OEM too...
    Everything is working. Client can connect to DB, applications work well... but...
    Damage is done... now we have totally new IP situation inside... changes are saved to the DNS, too!!!
    Before inserting network card IP settings (nslookup from any client) :
    rac1 192.168.217.60
    rac1-vip 192.168.217.62
    rac2 192.168.217.61
    rac2-vip 192.168.217.63
    rac-scan 192.168.217.64
    192.168.217.65
    192.168.217.66
    After this incident (nslookup from any client):
    rac1 192.168.217.60
    192.168.217.62
    192.168.217.64
    192.168.217.66
    rac2 192.168.217.61
    192.168.217.63
    192.168.217.65
    192.168.217.66
    VIP and SCAN IP address are the same as before...
    nslookup show as that rac1,rac2,rac-scan change IP addresses in round-robin scenario!!!
    We stopped RAC couple of time and OS Admin cleared DNS records (both zone)... but every start of cluster make changes again in DNS.
    Other "side-effects":
    Some cluster commands, invoked from CMD, fire errors (lsnodes, cluvfy comp nodecon -n rac1,rac2).
    Configuration files seem to be correct (listeners, scan, scan_listeners, etc). srvctl and crsctl command are working without errors. oifcfg too.
    Logs are full of errors (like: ASM could not be reached... no listener)
    Listener(s) stop working sometime...
    Relocation of resource are not possible.
    Well, I mentioned the most important things... other alerts and errors in logs are present, but everything is connected with this issue, I think...
    As I said: RAC working. Clusterware, DB, OEM, connections, applications, backup... everything look good... but we have a problem!!!
    Any ideas, any suggestion, any link, any advice, anything are welcome!
    Thanks!
    PS.
    Metalink haven't any document about this... I've found a lot of examples for changing IP's, interfaces, interconnection... but noting about fixing problem!

    I'm having the same issue. My desktop pc keeps dropping the connection to my network (airport extreme router) while the rest of my devices (macbook pro, xbox, mac mini) still stay connected. The pc never had this issue prior to installing Windows 7 so im guessing there must be something with the Windows 7 OS.

    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 the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

So, any clue on what to do? Thanks for any and all help.

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • While updating iPad2 from 4.3.3 to 4.3.5 iTunes says 'Network Error' after downloading the software

    Hi
    When it connects to my new iPad2 (stock 4.3.3), iTunes says there is an update available (4.3.5). When I hit 'update' and check subsequent boxes, it takes 45-50minutes the download the software update. Just when it says 'processing...', it suddenly stops and a pop-up says "network error: please check if your computer is connected to the internet". I have disabled the virus scan (as heard on some other forum), but the problem persists. There is no error code. This is a fresh installation of iTunes on a Windows Vista device. And I have tried over multiple internet connections including WiFi and Ethernet on 4MBPs connections.

    One update: I have tried reinstalling iTunes, changing and changing the connecting cable, for what it was worth. No change. As soon as the download finishes and the update process begins, it says 'Network Error..", Just does not make sense, Apple. Why would you not want your devices to update without tethering them to another PC or Mac? Or if we have to, then why cant we download the update and store it on a local drive if repeated trials are necessary.
    So far an extremely painful experience.

    The actual problem seems to be that you are using the wrong Linux distribution for you Laptop. Enterprise Linux was not designed for consumer grade hardware. To further troubleshoot the problem you will need to check for relevant output of "dmesg", i.e. check if the firmware and driver that was loaded for the device. You should also check "lspci -v" w/o grep to see more detailed information for the device.
    Are you trying the latest Oracle Linux 6 update 2?
    What is your hardware?
    Beware that no Oracle database products are yet certified for EL6 yet, so you should better stick to Oracle Linux 5 update 7 instead.
    If the purpose of your installation is research and development I suggest to install Windows as your primary OS and run Oracle Linux inside Virtualbox. Check the following link: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html

  • Disable Network Ports Except Lan Card Port ?

     
    I have a small company where there is no Internet Access Due to some privacy. all the Users are on Domain around 20 Computers but the problem is some of our employes are very cunning for there entertainment they are connecting there smart-phones and using
    internet through USB Tethering, Portable Hotspot, USB Wireless Devices etc. So my question is, Is there any option to disable all external network devices which is connecting to the computer except Disabling Lan Card through REGEDIT or any other away plz help
    me in finding out the best Solution For this.
    Thanks In Advance !

    Follow this article : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2007.06.grouppolicy.aspx
    Basically it explain how to implement hardware restriction in a domain environment using group policy.
    You can apply what's explained in the article in your case as well to prevent users to install and use usb network devices or connection of usb smartphones or whatever devices you don't want being installed on your machines.
    You'll find the policies that matches your needs under:
    Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Device Installation/Device Installation Restrictions
    In your case you can use these policies if you want to work with prevention:
    Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device IDs: Specific hardware and compatible IDs you enter in this policy are forbidden from being installed.
    Prevent installation of devices using drivers that match these setup classes: Device GUIDs entered here are disallowed from installing. Prevent policies have higher priority over allowed polices. If a device class GUID is configured for both
    allow and disallow policies, then the devices will not be allowed to install.

  • T440p: 1802 Unauthorized network card, no can't boot BIOS update

    Yesterday I received my Lenovo Thinkpad T440p.
    I wanted to install Linux immediately, but apparently 14.04 is not able to boot with the 2.22.
    The solution suggested in various forums was to downgrade Bios to version 1.14, which I did using the Windows
    Installer provided on the Lenovo Support page.
    After rebooting I get the infamous 1802 error: Unauthorized network card plugged in, presumably because of the whitelist not being up to date.
    I was told by the support hotline to update my BIOS to another version using the bootable CD images.
    I burnt various versions of them, but none of them would boot. 
    The error appears right after the Thinkpad Splash screen. I can't get into Bios. The pressing of any buttons (Esc F1, F11, F12, Enter etc.) doesn't have any effect either.
    How can I install another BIOS version? Is there any additional step I have to take, in order to update BIOS by a bootable CD?
    Any help is highly appreciated!
    Solved!
