Why will iTunes not start after installing latest updates on a windows computer?

I got the usual notification that an update for iTunes on a windows 7 computer was available and told it to install
It went through the motions and seemed to install,. but when I tried to open iTunes on completion I got the message below.
I subsequently removed iTunes and reinstalled after manually removing various iTunes folders, then reinstalled iTunes with the same result of the error message so I removed iTunes again and installed an older version of iTunes which worked fine until yesterday I was notified of an update for the iCloud, which I installed and am back at square one with the same error message.
I have tried to send an e-mail to Apple but they make it virtually impossible, so I would appreciate any advice anyone can give. I cannot be bothered with all this mucking avbout every time there is an upgrade
Thanks, Mactoshb

Hi, I carried out the advice and after reloading, Itunes is starting OK but I could not delete most of the files and folders mentione,d constantly getting the message that they were open in some unspecified program and to close it to continue, problem was I had no idea what the program was that they were open in.
However I have Ashampoo uninstaller installed and it identified various programs associated with Apple and after uninstalling them I reinstalled iTunes and it is working fine now.
Question, am I going to get this cobblers every time Apple offer an upgrade?????
Anyway thanks for your help and hopefully this posting will help others, as I doubt I am unique and others will have the same problem, Time perhaps Apple sorted it out

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Exchange replication service not starting after installing Rollup update 3 v3

Hi,
I have installed rollup update 3 v3 for exchange 2010 sp1 on my mailbox server. This mailbox server is a DAG member. After installing update rollup, Microsoft exchange replication service on this server attempts to start & show status started for couple
of seconds & then gets stopped. This behaviuor continues untill i uninstall this rollup. I have installed the same rollup on other DAG member as well with no problem. The following errors are generated in the application logs,
Event ID 4096: The Microsoft Exchange Replication service failed to start the Tcp Listener. Please review the Event Log for more information. The system will attempt to start the service again in 30 seconds.

I hope you are following the best practice to install rollup on DAG.
Suspend activation for the databases on the server being updated.
Perform a server switchover so that all databases on the server are passive copies. There will be a brief interruption in service for the mailboxes hosted on the active databases during the switchover process.
Install the update rollup.
Resume activation for the databases on the updated server.
Perform database switchovers as needed.

ITunes not opening after downloading latest update (7.1)

Hi, ever since updating my iTunes earlier this week, it has stopped working. It says (or so I believe, mine is in Danish so I'm not sure this is translated properly!): "Not enough diskspace available", which is clearly a mistake. I've tried deleting my preferences in the library and updating and everything, but I still get the same error. I've seen others on this board with the same error (but no solutions!), so I'm guessing it's not just me who's experiencing this sort of problem.
I hope you guys can help me! I'm getting desperate, being deprived of my daily podcasts is no fun!

Millez,
Do you have an iPod connected at the time you attempt to open iTunes?
Thanks, Generik

Trying to install update 8.1.3, my iPad says I need 1.5 gb but I actually have 17.1 gb. Why will it not let me install?

Trying to install update 8.1.3, my iPad says I need 1.5 gb but I actually have 17.1 gb. Why will it not let me install?

It's probably telling you that you need 1.5 more GB than you have available. Hook up your device to iTunes on the computer you sync with and do the update from there. OTA updates require a lot more memory than ones done via iTunes.
Cheers,

Why will download not start ?

I went for this offer : Photoshop CC+Lightroom för $9.95 Payed but when clicking on "Download" nothing happens ! Why ?

Hello,
I finally got it working, maybe something was wrong with my
network ?
I've downloaded Photoshop CC and Lightroom which I'm
subscribing on.
But in Creative Cloud I see other software which says
"Install" - like Bridge.
Am I allowed to do that within the fee I'm
paying ?
Bridge has always before been bundled with Photoshop, so -
yes, I would like that as well. (within the same price)
But now I see
Edge Animate CC, Edge Code CC and lots of other stuff.
Hope you can
sort out this mess.
And yes - I read whats what written in the URL,
but it didn't apply to my problems.
Thanks in advance,
Sincerely
Lasse

Windows could not start after SP-3 update

Windows could not start after SP-3 update
After I updated Apple Software Update to 2.1 and then updated to BC 2.1 successfully I D/L & Installed SP-3. Even got the Wizard & seemed to go OK. Got prompt “Installation Complete, Need to restart.” I did. I got a black screen with text:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:\Windows\inf\biosinfo.inf
You can attempt to repair the file by starting Windows setup using the original setup CD-ROM. Select ‘r’ at the 1st screen to repair.
I used the power button to shut down Windows & then booted into Mac OS X normally.
I think I need to restart my Mac into Windows (using the Option key ) WHILE THE WINDOWS XP installation CD is in the optical Drive. Then maybe I’ll get a choice to select ‘r’ to repair at the 1st screen?
Has anyone done this with a similar error & successfully repaired their Windows installation? I don’t know if this is a Boot Camp problem or not. XP SP 2 had been working just fine.
Thanks for any help.

Solved! It apparently was NOT a Boot Camp Issue. The fix was to obtain the file “biosinfo.inf” and from the Mac side, go into my WIndows XP HDD & add that file to: Windows/INF folder. (Yes, it was missing). Why my XP SP2 installation worked fine w/o this file is beyond my knowledge. Perhaps this file is needed only when doing a type of major update yet not needed for simply starting & running Windows? There are web pages stating that upgrading to SP 3 can cause this problem if using 3rd party software such as Norton Anti-Virus (I don’t have that but DO have Zone Alarm). There are also various complicated, long fixes out there. For me, replacing that file did the trick & everything seems fine now. (As far as where one “obtains” that file--long story)

HT201366 CAC readers not working after installing security update 2013-003?

Is anyone else having problems with CAC readers not working after installing security update 2013-003? CAC required websites are causing safari and chrome to crash.

For CAC issues, see:
MilitaryCAC's Mac OS X support landing page
Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

HT201412 None of my apps works after installing latest update.

After installing latest update on my iPad 2, none of my apps work. I click on the app, it flicks and goes back to home screen. Powering iPad off and restarting it did not work. Please help.

Did you update the apps? Check app store. Most of them had updates to support the iOS 5.1.1. It's been out a while

ITunes will not start after installing newest version

After installing the newest version of iTunes, I click on the iTunes icon and the license agreement flashes on the screen and disappears before I can click on the agreement. I am running Windows 2000 professional edition. Quick time will also not start. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, with and without firewall software running. Nothing seems to help.

hi Rachel!
No error messages, nothing. The hourglass is next to the mouse for about 3 seconds.
okay, if it's not NIS 2005 related, let's first check up on this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302386
... but by the sound of it, you might need to check on this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
if it turns out to be a weird start-up item to blame, would you mind letting us know what it's called? (there's a hint that there's a new kind of malware out there causing "the flash" and possibly some other start-up problems.)
keep us posted.
love, b

IPod service manager will not start after installing iTunes 10

I've removed reinstalled, wiped the registry reinstalled and deauthorized, removed and reinstalled from several different downloads. I have full permissions fo rservices and am administrator.. We now have three other units in teh office with the same issue.

Don't know about fixing PitStop. However, have you tried a simple repair on Acrobat. If Acrobat won't open you can do that from the Programs and Features menu (Add/Remove Programs in OS prior to Win7).
