Updated to Lion and now iTunes and Apple TV 2 no longer work

I "upgraded" to Lion today and now iTunes won't work and neither will my Apple TV 2. I click on media in iTunes and nothing happens. More than that, though, there's something strange going on with the metadata because movie posters are vanishing and reappearing. At the Apple TV end I get a lot of "Error Occurred Loading This Content" messages, but when it does actually decide to play a file only a couple of seconds of it load and then it freezes up.
This has been great. Upgrade the OS and now I can't listen to music or watch movies anymore.
I reinstalled iTunes, but nothing changed. I rebooted my router and nada. It woulda been cool if someone had actually tested this OS before it was sent out to disable Macs everywhere...

I believe there's some kind of sleep problem with my RAID array going on here. I had to switch the RAID array to the Firewire connection because Lion didn't like my eSata card. Now accessing media on the RAID array seems to be something that takes time to "wake up" the array, though I don't have any sleep modes enabled.

Just did a software update and now iTunes or other Mac accessories won't work?

I did a software update for my Macbook and now iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and iWeb won't work. I keep getting the iTunes quit unexpectedly thing and it sends the report to Apple. Is there anything I can do to fix this???

Download the 10.6.8 combo release from the Apple download site. Use Disk Utility (on your hard drive in applications/utilities) to repair permissions, then apply the combo release, then repair permissions again. That sometimes fixes odd system errors after a Software Update.

IPad2 Updated and now iTunes and plug icon

After being prompted for a few days for the update, I followed the usual protocol of agreeing, etc. and clicking update. Screen went dark. After about 15 minutes the apple icon came back, then and iTunes icon along with a plug icon next to it. I have no specs as I didn't write it down before I started. After 2 years I guess I am complacent and expected it to work.
I've tried hard reset a few times. Plugged it in to my computer for iTunes and it won't update but comes up in recovery mode and won't go further without restoring it back.
Important stuff is backed up but 2 years of getting it "just right" I am hoping I don't really have to do this.
Any thoughts, opinions. Or am I just going to have to push that restore button?
Thanks.

you have to restore via itunes - no other options sorry
peace, Clyde

I updated my Firefox to 5.0 and now my Kaspersky Password plug-in no longer works. Spoke with them and they do not have a compatible update yet, so I want to go back to Firefox 4.0. How do I do that?

I love the Kaspersky Pure Password program and us it constantly! After updating my Firefox browser from 4.0 to 5.0... I found that the plug-in for my password program no longer worked!
I emailed them and they do not have an update yet that is compatible with Firefox 5.0....
So I need to go back to 4.0 till Kaspersky has an update because I am lost without my password program!
Please help me.

Due to security vulnerabilities, rolling back to Firefox 4.0.1 is not recommended. Firefox 3.6.18 would be the safer choice.
Here's the process to roll back:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 5.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Not clear just what you are seeing - does the iPhone screen show the USB cable pointing to iTunes? If that is what you are seeing then it has entered the recovery mode and has to be restored by following the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

I am using OS 64 bit Windows Vista Home Premium and recently updated the latest version of iTunes. (I only have this CD burning software on my Laptop). Ever since updating, I received the message 'Registry settings for the iTune drivers are missing for CD burning'. The drivers for Lower and uppper filters in the registry are missingand I now have no optical drive. I have unistalled and reinstalled Itunes and manually entered the filters. Have tried everything including something called GEAR driver installer which was suggested on several technical sites. Everything was working fine in iTunes until I updated it.. It's strange I can still import music but not burn?? Friend s have told me they have ha dthe same problem when updating iTunes but resolved the problem by uninstalling/reinstalling or altering registry keys.

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

I updated my IOS on my iPhone 4S and it locked up. I had to restore my phone and now iTunes will not go past the setup your phone screen even though the phone as been restored. How do I get iTunes to go past this screen so I can sync my phone again?

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

Hi cheperrumps,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Uninstalling or reinstalling the iTunes application won't affect your music (data) -- but it's always a good idea to have a backup!
The information below will show you how to do that and to troubleshoot your issue with iTunes:

Wouldn't apple check before releasing new version, I see so many people with same issue..its such a waste of time for everyone now to fix it.
Is there any other way to fix before I try to un-install everything and re-install back?
