Vista SP1 update problems with itunes after

Hello,
After installing the SP1 Vista update, i cant play music anymore with itunes.
the play button doesnt work anymore. After installing (repairing) itunes again? it still doesnt work.

Well, a little update. I plugged my phone back into my laptop, went into iTunes again though the computer, and let it sync again. Unplugged it, and the same thing happened again. I shut the phone off, then turned it on again, recharged the battery on the wall charger and it seems to be working OK now.
Every now and then my App Store will not open, and certian apps will crash, but a little better than before.
I'll tell you what, Apple really dropped the ball with the 4.0 update for us 3G users it looks like

HT1589 problems with itunes after updating..can't locate some of my songs..some have an exclamation point beside them how do i get these songs back in my itunes

I'm having problems with itunes after updating. I've lost all my playlists,,finally played around with it and got the songs back but some have an exclamation point beside them and can't be located. they are songs i've purchased. I'm not very computer literate so this is a major problem. I have spent hours with this. I just want all my songs to play even though I'm not happy that I have to recreate my playlists. It would be so much easier if I knew and understood how to correct this. Has anyone else had this problem and if so..is there an easy way to correct it?

Not sure how this is an ipod touch question.
Perhaps you should post in the itunes forum.

Update problems with itunes 10.6.1 on xp

When I try to update to iTunes 10.6.1 n Windows XP sp3 I get the dialog box to repair or remove. If I select repair the update fails. Any ideas on how to correct this issue?

I have an old macbook too.
It seems like Apple writes new software that makes older computers not work as well.
I always have reservations about updating with an older model.
Does anybody else have any problems with the new iTunes?

Problem with iTunes after upgrading

Hey guys my name is jake and my issue is so:
i've upgraded my iTunes to the latest version 7.4.3 yesterday and on the same day i've installed quick time 6.5 codec for some work i needed.
now i dont know if the quick time install is relate to it but since then my itunes wont open. it just errors me and ask me if i want to send or not to send eroor report
when running quicktime( the one came with itunes) it says buffer overrun detected
i tried reinstalling itunes few times and tried to install it on older version
nothing has worked. also removed the ipod driver and reinstalled it
havent worked either.
any advices?
thanks ahead
Jake

I recently upgraded to the latest that was offered and I think it was 7.4.1. Have they made a newer one since then??
Anyways, I had a problem immediately. I have a large majority of my music on an external hard drive, and some downloaded music on my computer. After upgrading, itunes would not work, and I discovered that when I unplugged the external hard drive (which contains most of my music) itunes did work and played what was already on my laptop. Everytime I try to plug my external hard drive back in, the same problem occurs: itunes freezes and I have to shut my computer down. I also noticed that it says I have something like 6000 songs and 347 GB! I don't know how many gigs 6000 songs might be depending on length, but there is no way I have 347 gigs of music since I have nowhere near that amount of space on my hard drive and external hard drive nor do I have that much music anyways...no CLUE what is going on here.
I'm afraid to delete itunes and reinstall it because I don't want the downloaded music on my computer to be deleted and I don't currently hve a place to back it up. Have you found any solutions/know what's going on with me??

Syncing problem with itunes after restoring to a new PC from iPod

My old PC crashed and I copied my iTunes libray to a new PC from my iPod. The libray includes several songs taken from CD's I purchased plus several songs that I had purchased from iTunes. I also "authorized" the new PC. However, when I sync now none of the purchased songs from my new iTunes file will copy back to the iPod. It will only sync the songs from my personal CD collection. I get a message that the iPod is not authorized for these songs. Any suggestions for a fix?

Try deauthorising your PC and authorise it over again, this can sometimes clear a "not authorised" problem: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation
You could also have a look at this article: iPod does not play content purchased from the iTunes Music Store
If you continue to have problems you can email Customer Services from this page, they may be able to help: iTunes Music Store - Authorization FAQ

Problems with iTunes after 4.0 OS update

Hi all, first post here.
I've had my iPhone 8GB 3G since last December. I went to download iOS 4.0 last night, (it DID work, although it took forever). After the upgrade, I cannot download any new apps, or sometimes even get into the App Store at all. Every time I do, I get an "Cannot connect to iTunes" error. I have my password in, full bars of 3G service, but for some reason, I cannot download ANY new apps.
Then, there is a few games that will not even open, some apps will just randomly quit working, etc.
I LOVE my 3G, and have NEVER had a single issue until after I downloaded this iOS 4.0 upgrade.
Any idea on what to do ? I tried shutting my phone off, then on again, to no help.
Oh well, I pick up my new iPhone 4 tomorrow, so my 3G probably knows it's getting put to the backseat once my new phone arrives

Well, a little update. I plugged my phone back into my laptop, went into iTunes again though the computer, and let it sync again. Unplugged it, and the same thing happened again. I shut the phone off, then turned it on again, recharged the battery on the wall charger and it seems to be working OK now.

Central storage Problems with iTunes after 10.5 upgrade

I keep my I tunes Library on a Central 2TB network storage device connected to my Router. After installing 10.5, i have been experiencing trouble, every tim I need to re boot my MAC for a software update, ITunes has to "organize" the same Library again. It takes about 5 to 6 hours

OK ... It seems by exiting LR and re-launching it, the problem goes away. I blame Apple for this one, clearly.

Problem with itunes after reverting back to mavericks from yosemite

I can't get iTunes to open my library after reverting back to Mavericks from the beta Yosemite. It says "iTunes cannot open this library because it was created with a newer version of iTunes." It then asks if I want to download the latest version and when I click download it takes me to the app store and says that I have the latest version. Which was downloaded when I was running Yosemite. I even downloaded the latest version from the website and it still won't open the library.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your input.
Bob

I don't know which actual versions you are seeing because I don't have Yosemite. You're not really supposed to discuss any issues related to beta test versions on the open forums. I believe there is an iTunes 12 out in beta which may have been what you were running. You don't say how you reverted to Mavericks.
The underlying issue is the file called "iTunes Library.itl" Once you open it with a newer version it can no longer be opened by an earlier version. However, when you do an upgrade it makes a copy of the older version and you can rename this to make a file which can be opened with the older iTunes. However, this will not reflect any changes made to your library. Any media added will still be present in the media folder but it will have to be added to the old library.

iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
Beta software testers are advised not to run software on their main computers, and will usually be familiar with how to restore to older versions and the working of computers. The new public beta with Yosemite is a change in behavior for Apple but of course means a lot of people want to be a tester but don't really know what that means.

Help!!!Software update -problems with ITUNES?

After updating my Apple TV - I can sync everything but ITUNES.
What am I doing incorrectly.
When I go to computer on the menu- I am taken to a menu that effectively says -if you continue all your Itunes will be lost [they are not there anyway.]
I have restored to factory settings and reverted to original menus etc. and that works fine.
However I would like to use the updated software....
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lu

Try to update again. I am sure that will work,was only a fluke.
What you have to lose, another factory restore.\\Make sure that your iTunes is the last version.
Good luck!

Problems with iTunes after installing an SSD/HDD on my Macbook Pro

Hello everybody,
I decided to install a SSD on my Macbook Pro, replacing the optical drive with it, then I set up the new disk to be the boot drive and left the HDD on its place to store media and stuff.
Obviously, my library now is on the HDD, but when I try to delete a file via iTunes I get a partial elimination, or no elimination at all. The songs remain on their place on iTunes. I have no idea why. My only theory is related to the TRIM option: I have a small application that enabled it on both drives, so maybe it may be a pain for the HDD?
Any help?
Thanks!

First, spinning hard drives don't use TRIM, so you can't enable it on your HD, only your SSD.
Is your SSD your boot drive? Where do you have your iTunes media stored? There's a right way and a wrong way to change the location of the media - see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1449.
Good luck,
Clinton

I have a problem with iTunes after using Migration Assistant

Hi,
I've just used Migration Assistant to move all my files from my PC (HP Pavilion) to my new MacBook Air. In Itunes now, my songs are showing but all of them have an exclamation mark by them as none of the files can be found. How do I resolve this (hopefully without taking too much time)?
Thanks

Hi, I just tried that but I still have the same problem. Is there anything else I could do? Thanks

Problems with itunes after rebuilding computer

Have had to rebuild my computer, and have re-installed itunes on a new hard drive. I always stored all my music on another hard drive, but cannot get the library to show all the songs I have (over 8000) - I also do not want to have to generate all the playlists again. Can anybody give me a hint about how I can get back to how it was before my computer failed? Help and advice greatly appreciated

Julian,
To restore your library and playlists will require a back-up copy from your old system of the iTunes Library files .
If you have a back-up copy of those files, put them into the iTunes folder on your C drive (and take out the library files that are already there) and as long as the path to the music on the other drive hasn't changed, you should be all set.
If you don't have a back-up copy of the library files, then you will have to re-create the playlists yourself. In that case to get the songs to appear in the Library use the iTunes File menu > Add Folder to Library command and select the folder on the other drive where you're keeping your music.
Any further questions, post back.
