Why do I continue to get the message saying the "duplicate filename is specified when I uninstall itunes. I followed the steps outlined by Apple.

I have followed the instructions to the letter for uninstalling itunes and I continue to get the message that "
duplicate filename is specified".

I fought this problem for WEEKS with no success. iTunes on Windows 7 x64. I tried running it as Administrator. I tried every fix I could find here and on Youtube and nothing. Any time I was in iTunes and switched focus to another Window like Outlook or something it would pop this error message up again. I reinstalled iTunes from scratch. This did NOT fix it, but it gave me a clue. I figured it had to be my iTunes library which is stored on an external HD.
After poking around in the library for a while I thought it might be a file that had been set to Read Only so I did an "attrib -r e:\itunes /s" to clear all of them all. This wasn't the problem but it alerted me to a file it couldn't clear. The file was iT.tmp and it couln't clear that because the file was corrupt. I deleted it but that still didn't fix it.
I finally did a "chkdsk e:\itunes /f" and let it run through. It found the error in iT.tmp, fixed it and now iTunes works fine again.

looks like this is your network connection settings problem, you'd better only keep one network adaptor online and linked, if you do not understand how to setup windows routing, this is completely not firefox problem. buddy. wish you goodluck.

How do I reinstall iWeb 3.0.3? I inadvertently opened an html file of my website and tried to open it with iWeb '09. I get a message saying "Can't open file" etc., etc. I've tried reinstalling the updated version. Iweb will not open.

How do I reinstall iWeb 3.0.3? I inadvertently opened an html file of my website and tried to open it with iWeb '09. I get a message saying “Can’t open file” etc., etc. I’ve tried reinstalling the updated version. Iweb will not open.

Delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iWeb and see if it opens.
What happened was trying to open the html file reset the file path that iWeb saves in its preference file to tell it where to go when you launch iWeb. Deleting the pref file and launching iWeb creates a new file and iWeb looks in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder for the Domain.sites2 file it uses to create your site.

Just got my iPhone 5. I get a message saying it can't be used as it requires iTunes 10.7 or later, when I connect to iTunes. But the current version is 10.63. Please help!

iPhone 5 requires iTunes 10.7 or greater to sync with your computer. You need to update iTunes on your computer. If running OS X, this requires OS X 10.6.8 or greater...Snow Leopard.

Hi. I am trying to buy Apperture as my trial version has expired. I cannot buy the full version as I get a message saying it is already installed. Do I have to remove the trial before I can buy it? When I launch Apperture, I follow the link "buy"

Hi. I am trying to buy Apperture as my trial version has expired. I cannot buy the full version as I get a message saying it is already installed. Do I have to remove the trial before I can buy it? When I launch Apperture, I follow the link "buy"

If you are purchasing from the Mac App store, then you would drag the trial version to the trash first and empty trash (since the trial version has expired).
Launch the Mac App store > sign in with your Apple ID > purchase Aperture (this is cheaper than the previous retail version many of us purchased anyway).
Note - you can rename your Aperture Trial library as needed if you want to work with that one once the full version is installed.

ITunes music files cannot be edited, and new music files imported. The messages says I do not have enough access privileges even though I am the administrator of the system.

Since installing the latest version of iTunes all my music files cannot be edited, and I cannot import new music files into iTunes. The messages says I do not have enough access privileges even though I am the administrator of the system. If anyone can help me sort this out I would be really grateful. I have checked the read and write privileges for all the iTunes folders and it all seems in order so I can't understand it.
In general, I am getting really frustrated with Apple. They seem to be getting ever more controlling in their approach to their consumers. I need to edit music file information as I am a dj. And why can't I import music, unless I buy it from iTunes? Most of all, why can't I use the devices I paid a lot of money for in the way I want to use them, and not be forced to coerced to use apple's fee paying services (iCloud, iTunes).
I have used apple computers since the early 1990's, but in the last year I have gotten rid of my iPhone and my iPad and replaced them with Android devices. Much better and much less control. Perhaps it is time to switch from Apple altogether.

I get message saying system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation; when trying to uninstall message says you do not have sufficient access to uninstall itunes please contact your administrator. i am administrator.

when intalling itunes i get message saying system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation; when trying to uninstall message says you do not have sufficient access to uninstall itunes please contact your administrator. i am the dministrator.

Windows right?
Likely your not the administor any more, the botnet is.
Check on this site really quick if your part of a botnet
http://botnetchecker.com/
All clear? Hopefully. Backup your files to a external drive, cd or dvd, USB keye etc off your computer.
Run the sfx file on this site and it will burn to a cd.
http://www.avira.com/en/support-download-avira-antivir-rescue-system
Next hit your BIO's key and set the cd to boot first, run the scanner and see what it pops up.
If your all clear then create another Admin, transfer your files over from the first Admin.
See if that works, eventually when your totally over to the new Admin, delete the old one.
If you can't create a new Admin, find out who locked your machine down, like your parents or it's a school computer?
Likely installed spyware or "nanyware" to watch you.
Hope that works.

I can no longer open firefox. I get a message that it is already open but when I try to force quit the app it is not there.

I am running IMacs with an OS10.6x operating system. This problem has occurred on several of my machines now. I can still open firefox from alternate profiles on the same machine, but the student profile will give me the message that it is already open and can only have one instance running at a time.

Make sure that the profile that Firefox wants to use and that is specified in profiles.ini still exists. If that profile isn't found then you get that same error message.

I keep getting a message stating my internet connection timed out when trying to sign in to the iTunes store.

When I attempt to log into the iTunes store, I get an error message stating that my internet connection has timed out. I am able to access the internet otherwise. I am running on my home WiFi network from AT&T. I've removed iTunes and reinstalled it several times with the same outcome. Is there anything that I may be over looking, such as internet speed, etc? I've also check my firewall and pop up blocker and the program is allowed.

i've been having trouble for the last couple weeks, and after spending HOURS trying every solution i could find, i still can't get the store to load, or for itunes to stop hanging my computer. however, through the process of elimination, i did figure out that i had a router that died. got that going now, just wish i could get the itunes store to work.

Why do I continue to get the message saying the "duplicate filename is specified when I uninstall itunes. I followed the steps outlined by Apple.
