Windows installed updates and now itunes has gone!

last night windows installed updates as it shut down and now when ive loaded up in the morning itunes has gone. ive tried repairing through add/remove programs, downloading a new version and removing the old version but each time it comes up with this message:
the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unvailable. click ok to try again or enter an alternative path to the folder containing installation package 'itunes.msi'.
does anyone know where to find this or an alternative way of sorting it out?
cheers.

Hi
First sorry to hear that.
Not all is lost. This is what you do.
1) Goto itunes.com. Install iTunes. Open it. Sign in to itunes so it displays your email address in itunes.
After goto your itunes store in itunes. There is a purchased tab. Click on in. It should list everything you purchased, books, songs, apps. Press the cloud with the down arrow. That will start the download process to your computer. I know the movie part you must download one at a time or it will crash. I hope that helps.

We have recently gone through an auto update with our windows 8 machine and afterwards iTunes will not function for more than a minute before shutting down. Any similar problems or solutions besides going back to an older restore point?

Installed Windows 8.1 and now iTunes is gone

I had been using the Windows 8.1 preview and itunes worked fine, but after "upgrading" to 8.1 Pro all of the software I had rpeviously installed had to be re-installed, including iTunes. However, every time I try to install it, it asks if I wish to "save File?" After I click yes it acts like it will but nothing happens. No crash message, no install messages. Nothing. Any ideas?

I accepted a version update and now iTunes closes on launch with the message "iTunes has stopped working. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." What to do?

Others are more likely to help if you stop needlessly repeating yourself and provide some details.
What operating system? Windows (XP, Vista, 7) Mac
Any errors?
Also, try doing a search either here or via Google, you are more likely to get a faster resolution as there is no need to wait on others to respond.

I downloaded the latest update yesterday and now itune is gone from my pc because it didn't download correctly

I downloaded the latest update yesterday and now itunes is gone from my toshiba laptop. I get a message msvcr80.dll. Any suggestions why

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I ran a System Restore on my Windows XP notebook and now iTunes won't open. It says something about my "iTunes library being created in a new version of iTunes".

I ran a System Restore in my Windows XP notebook and now iTunes will not open. The message: The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. What can I do about this?

Depending on the iTunes settings and where the music is downloaded from, by default, it is stored in C:\...\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\. So, if you need to backup, that would be the folder you want to grab.
However, uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes doesn't affect that folder, so if you have to remove and reinstall it you should not lose any music (although backups are always a good idea).
In reinstalling, I'd recommend opening your Control Panel and going into Add or Remove Programs, and removing the following:
1. Apple Mobile Device Support
2. Apple Software Update
3. Bonjour
4. iPod for Windows (if it exists)
5. iTunes
6. QuickTime
Then, restart the computer, and download/install iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/. This should ensure that the appropriate version of all related software is installed, and everything is in sync.

I have been using the Firefox feature in which I could have multiple sets of tabs open but see only the set I was working with. I updated and now feature is gone. I had a small icon on the upper right side of my toolbar. I used it all the time to keep separate windows for news, financial items, travel plans, etc. Has this been removed from Firefox?

WHat do i do!!!!!! Is this some type a virus???? my mac is protected!!!!! tried to chat with an IT person but they keep asking if its like a tech problem and it is just iphoto

You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Reinstalled my router and now Airport has gone inactive and will not reconnect

Reinstalled my Linksys router and now Airport has gone inactive and will not reconnect. What am doing wrong?

How did you reinstall the router? Do you mean updated the firmware on the router? Did you change the router settings and if so, what changes did you make? Did you make associated changes in the AirPort card in your iMac?

If you're in the US, you have only 24 hours to complete watching a rental from the time you started viewing it. Have less than 24 hours passed since you started to watch? If it's been less, go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Tell them the day and time you purchased, the time you started to watch, and the time today you went back to finish watching and found the movie gone.
Regards.
