Windows 2000 won't start after iTunes 7.3 upgrade

Yesterday I upgraded to iTunes 7.3 and after the required reboot, windows 2000 hangs on its startup screen. I can boot from the windows 2000 CD and login to the win2k installation on the hard disk using the admin password, but I don't know how to uninstall iTunes from the recovery console. Any ideas?
Dell Dimension 4100 Windows 2000

Was not able to uninstall easyCD creator, but did get windows to start again by following the directions below from the website listed below. Lots of work still ahead to get it back to normal, but at least I didn't lose all my data.

Method 1: Use a Backup Registry System Hive to Edit the Registry
Use the Windows 2000 CD-ROM to start the computer.
If you need a third-party hard disk controller, press S to specify an additional device, and then insert the floppy disk that contains the correct driver for the hard disk controller.
Press R to repair a Windows 2000 installation.
Press C to use the recovery console.
Log on to the Windows installation that you want and type the Administrator password.
Change to the %windir%\System32\Config\ directory. To do this, type the following command at the C:\Winnt prompt (where C: is the drive and Winnt is the directory where Windows 2000 is installed), and then press ENTER:
chdir system32\config
Type ren system system.old, and then press ENTER.
Type copy C:\winnt\repair\system, and then press ENTER. The following information appears:
1 file(s) copied.
Type exit, and then press ENTER to quit the recovery console and restart Windows.

Windows 2000 won't boot after QuickTime 7.03 installation!!!

Thank your VERY much Apple for messing a company computer!
An Interactive Tuturial we bought used QuickTime, and the sound sounded like the instructor was underwater.
I then went to this website and downloaded QuickTime 7.03, the version you PUSH with ITunes as I at first did not see your snugged away link to the stand-alone download.
Anyways after the download, I went through the installation, which at the end prompted me to reboot.
Well thanks Apple, now the Windows 2000 sp4, system won't boot at all!!!
Not even in safe mode!!! Hangs during or after loading fltmgr.sys
Not even after having bootet to the Windows 2000 installation CD-ROM and done an emergency repair!!!
Thank your VERY much!!!
Not only have your installation program caused a working computer to become unoperational for half a day, now it seems we have to reinstall Windows 2000, and ALL programs and their settings which were used on it, causing another half a day or more of loss work!!!
Edited by an Apple Host

Due the this recent catastrophic issue and other, with the official Apple Quicktime player, our company have deciced to uninstall all versions of Quicktime, mostly version 6, on our 158 PC's, and install the QuickTime Alternative instead.

My MacBook won't start after iTunes update. I keep getting the spinning wheel. Any suggestions?

While trying to back up my iPhone 4S to iTunes, I received a message that iTunes had to be upgraded. I did the upgrade, but my computer won't start now. I get a white screen with the spinning wheel. (Like the computer is trying to boot). Any fixes?

Please verify you got this screen as well:
I had the same after updating fronm 10.7.1 to 10.7.2 tonight. Not even a re-install of the OS X 10.7 and Combo update to 10.7.2 helped. I think this time Apple messed up big time with the 10.7.2 update and some Mac Books (my case: MacBook 15" Mid 2009 = MacBookPro5,3)
If any Apple Support person reads this: Please get in contact with me. This is highly unusual!!
I think the best thing would be to call AppleCare 1-800-MY-APPLE.

Firefox won't start after 18.0.1 upgrade

I have upgraded to the latest version and then two days later, The mozilla Crash reporter opens and it won't start. Nothing happens when I press details.
I can't run it safe mode. The same thing happens.
I uninstalled and re-installed and same thing.
I then uninstalled rebooted and re-installed V16. That was then ok for a few days then same thing happened.
So I unintstalled rebooted and on went V15 which worked for about 8 hours. However I can't get any version to work now. The Crash Reporter pops up whatever version I have.

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
#Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
#In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
#From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
#Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
#Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
#Paste each ID into the reply window on the forums.
Thanks in advance!
You can find more information and troubleshooting steps in the [[Firefox crashes]] article.

Your case may be simpler to resolve. You do not have the MBR entry for Windows.
Do you a NTFS header "R.NTFS" when you run the following command in Terminal?
sudo dd if=/dev/rdisk0s4 count=1 2>/dev/null | hexdump -C

Windows 7 won't start after forced shutdown

HP Pavilion DV9628
Windows 7 64-bit
I was installing a windows update when the system got hung up. I pressed the power button to force shut down. Now when I press the power button, I can hear the hard drive spin, the boot process starts and then the power turns off. The amount of time to shut-off varies. If I leave the computer off external power for about a week I can get all the way to seeing the desktop, but then the power shuts off. I have tried re-installing Windows 7 after a week draining the battery, but it shuts off mid-install. Please help!

Hi,
Can you post back with the following details.
The full Model No. and Product No. of your notebook - see Here for a guide on locating this information.
The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 64bit ).
Do you receive any error messages at start-up? If you do, include details.
Regards,

IPlanet web server 4.x on Windows 2000 fails to start after activating SSL

I have created the trust database and installed a CA root certificate and a web server certificate. When I enable SSL, the server startup takes a long time (although the log file indicates a successful startup much earliar) and then after acknowledging the information box for successful startup, on return to the server on/off page, the page shows server off.

Can you provide the error logs file of the instance which fails to start?
Thanks

Windows- bootcamp won't start after installing OSX Yosemite

Hi Loner T,
Like many people with the yosemite update, my boot camp no longer works.
I cannot find the drive when I'm booting up.
Startup Disk under system preferences only shows the Mac system and does not show any other option.
I've been trying to go through what you've posted to help other people but I've never even worked with terminal application before and everything is very confusing.

Hope you can help me, Thank You.

The NTFS header is intact and the GPT and MBR match.
1. What happens if you power cycle and hold the Alt key?
2. Do you have any third-party NTFS software (Tuxera, Paragon, MacDrive, NTFS-3g, NTFSFree...)?

2009 Macbook pro won't start after 10.6.3 upgrade

Updated my macbook pro this morning when I received the software update notice, received an error message that the process encountered an error, upon restart the macbook pro hangs on the grey screen with the apple in the middle, then turns off. Won't restart in safe mode, but will restart in single user mode (not that I know what to do there). I also started from the snow leopard disk and went to disk utility, tried to repair permissions, but received an error message there as well. I even tried re-installing snow leopard from the disk but received the message " installation of the contents of this disk can't be changed". Help!!!!

Loaded up the snow leopard disk, used disk utility to erase and reformat the HD, re-installed SL, then installed the combo update, all is fine again. Worst upgrade experience I have ever had to deal with....

Portege R830 - Windows won't start after I install Comodo Firewall

Good afternoon,
I purchased today a Portege R830, and after the Windows configuration was over, the first program I installed was the popular free firewall Comodo. After I rebooted, Windows 7 wouldn't start anymore. It would get stuck on the user login screen and I know it's a problem with the firewall because if I make a system restore to the restore point created by the firewall installer, the windows will start again.
So I ask if there is any incompability between the firewall and some software on the Toshiba. Has anyone ever had this problem? I've been trying to solve this issue all day long with no results. I even re-installed Windows 7 using the Toshiba recovery and the issue persists. I really love Comodo, and I want this firewall on my laptop, but Windows just won't start!
Any help would be very apreciated.

Hi jillefsky,
Have you disabled the Windows firewall before you started with Comodo firewall installation? As far as I know Portege R830 is delivered with preinstalled McAfee security software and you should remove this program before you install any other security tools.
Generally speaking this issue has nothing to do with Toshiba and its recommendable to contact Comodo directly. Maybe they know about this issue so they can give you a proper answer.
But I dont understand why this program is so important for you. Windows has already an internal firewall so such programs are not necessary in my opinion. Just install a good antivirus program like AntiVir and activate automatic Windows updates. Thats all!

Firefox won't start after update - nothing in support pages helps

windows 7 - firefox won't start after update - no support pages are relevant

-> [[Firefox will not start]]
Check and tell if its working.

Firefox won't start after google chrome imported all data(bookmarks,passwords,history,etc) from firefox

firefox won't start after i import the data to google chrome.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
