Wireless mouse doesn't work after installing iTunes

New 30Gb iPod, installed iTunes v6 on 6-mos old HP laptop with docking station/wireless keyboard/mouse. All is well, updated iTunes with latest from web, loaded songs on iPod BUT now wireless mouse will not work. Reset mouse, works for a few clicks, then dies. Reset mouse again, few more clicks, then dies. Reboot without iPod connected, no iTunes up, still mouse only works for a couple clicks. Touchpad on laptop works, also so does wireless keyboard so I know transmitter is working (not battery problem). All worked fine until I started playing with options in iTunes today. I didn't uninstall iTunes yet, is that next step? Anyone else have this problem? Suggestions???

I'm pretty sure it's probably just your mouse/computer, however I would recommend uninstalling iTunes just to make sure though.

Optical drive doesn't work after installing itunes 11.0.5.5

After updating to iTunes 11.0.5.5 my optical drive does not work. I have put the same CD in another PC and it works fine. When I right click on the optical disc drive in 'Computer' I get the error message "Windows cannot access the specified device, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item." If a CD is in the drive, the drive will either keep popping open or not open at all on its own. The CD will not open in any other player such as Windows Media Player either.

I read this article:
http://www.gearsoftware.com/wiki/index.php/CD/DVD_drives_disappear_after_install ing_iTunes
I did not have any AFS drivers.
This is what I did and my optical drive is now working:
1. Backed up iTunes
2. Unistalled iTunes
3. Tried to install iTunes 10.7 for Windows 64
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#itunes
4. When iTunes tried to launch I received the message "iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
5. My computer would not recongize the optical drive at all now
6. I re-installed iTunes 11.0.5 for Windows 64
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#itunes
7. All my iTunes data is there and my optical drive works now
Note: I should clarify that before uninstalling iTunes 11.0.5 my optical drive worked sometimes. It would play maybe one song, both in iTunes and Windows Media Player and then stop working. The drive would also pop open on its own whether there was a disc in there or not. Also sometimes I had to manually open the drive with a paper clip.

Wireless mouse does not work after installing new batteries

I have a PowerBook G4 and have been using a wireless mouse and keyboard. The batteries needed to be replaced in my mouse. I successfully installed new batteries. The mouse will turn on. The LED blinks. But the mouse is not functioning. I must use the finger pad on the machine. I double checked the battery installation and even set-up the mouse as a device again. When I turn the mouse off, I get a "connection" lost window on the screen. I have tried
clicking the mouse to re-establish connection with no luck.
Any suggestions?

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86468
I had the same problem today - go to the above URL and follw precisely the instructions - after you delete the current mouse settings from your bluetooth preferences - apparently you have to sometimes reinstall the mouse after changing batteries - however I changed them before and did not need to do this
hope this helps

Cd drive doesn't work after installing iTunes

I installed iTunes and started to try and rip cd's into the library but the cd drive isn't working any more.. Something about the driver, which I updated, or it also says the registry is incomplete for the cd drive. I ran into this once before on another computer, but I forget how to fix this. I tried to do a system restore to before I installed iTunes, but my computer wouldn't let me restore. Any suggestions?

Wireless Mouse Doesn't Work After Waking From Sleep Mode

I have a MacBook Pro 13" 2.9 GHZ running on OSX 10.8 and when it wakes from sleep the wireless usb mouse no longer functions. I have to continually unplug then plug the mouse back in for it to work. Is there a way to solve this problem? I haven't found any definitive answers through searching the web. It's minor but irritating as I'm not fond of using the trackpad.

Would like to backtrack this discussion to

My iPhoto doesn't work after installing lion?

My Iphoto doesn't work after installing lion.
it suggest that I have to instal iphoto again.
where can I find this

If it suggests that you install iPhoto again, install iPhoto again. In your Macs Box that it came in there should be 2 Discs, one is an Applications CD (You need this one) And another is the Mac OS X.
Insert your Applications CD and hold C while the computer is starting up, then you will be walked through the installation of Applications.

When reinstalling OS X with install disk, wireless mouse doesn't work

I have an unusual problem: My iMAC G5 hard drive died and I installed a replacement disk. Now, I am trying to reinstall OS X 10.3 with the help of my original install CDs that came with the iMAC.
Unfortunately, my wireless mighty mouse doesn't react anymore and I cannot proceed with the installation through keyboard commands alone. I get stuck at the first install window where the system asks for the operating system language.
I am clueless how to proceed since I don't have access to any utilities to test or connect the mouse because OS X is not installed yet. I tested the mouse on another Mac and it works. Any clues? Thanks for your help.

I solved my problem by using the original mouse

Also I was looking for alternative software in case I can't make it work. Do you have any recommendations? Thank you and I am sorry I cant be helpful yet.

Wireless printing no longer working after installing HP 2.7 update

I have been using wireless printing from my Macbook Pro (running Lion OSx 10.7.2) fine until yesterday when it just stopped working out of nowhere. From looking on the forums it appears that this is probably a result of the HP 2.7 update (which I also had the issue of continuously re-appearing in my software update list even after installing it multiple times - though i was able to resolve this courtesy of this forum). I've tried re-installing the printer multiple times and it works fine when connected via USB, it acnowledges that the printer is connected to the same wireless network as my computer bu

OK, before you dive any more into the registry, a simple question. Did you try uninstalling iTunes, rebooting, and re-installing iTunes?
I do have an entry for 'iTunes.Application.1' (below). However, I'm sure there are many more registry entries related to iTunes. In other words, adding this entry will probably not be sufficient to restore the COM functionality.

Wireless net does not work after installing SP1 for Vista - Error code 10

After installing Vista SP1 on my computer (T61 - Vista Business 32 bit) my intel 82566mm wireless net does not work.
Windows says "Error code 10" and suggests that I update the driver. I have downloaded the newest driver via another computer, but it does not help. Still error code 10.
Any one else has the same problem?

I fixed the problem. Uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it clean. Looks like upgrading is problematic.

Help! I've spent hours researching this and can't find a solution...
I upgraded 3 Intel Macs in the house to Snow Leopard last weekend. All went differently...but all were successful. I found that the connection to my HP Officejet 7410 (connected wirelessly to 802.11g Airport Express (AEX) network) was "broken". Deleted then "re-intalled". Documents could now be printed. I then found out scan function was "broken". Figured out how to scan with new Snow Leopard "baked-in" driver and Scan tab...different, but it worked.
Then, tonight, on the eve of my birthday, I was given the green light to purchase an Airport Extreme 802.11n (dual-band) base station (AEBS). I set it up and got 2.5X speed on the two 802.11n laptops in the household. Glorious! Then I went to work to ensure print and scan functions were still operational. Tried to re-connect HP OJ 7410 to wireless network...when it found the network it asked for the "WEP" key (on previous AEX network I was secured utilizing WPA2/Personal)...I entered the WPA2/Personal password (same as previous network) and got the error message "Key must be 5 or 13 characters OR 10 or 26 length with 0-9 and A-F (hex)". So I turned off the wireless radio and instead plugged the 7410 into the AEBS via USB. Deleted the previous queue and re-installed. Found the printer no problem but now without the Scan tab or function anywhere...despite following all the recommendations found both on the HP site and here in the Apple Forums. I print fine. Can't for the life of me figure out what the problem with the now lost again Scan function is.
Only strangeness I can think of is the following: When setting up the network(s), I had the option of naming the 5 ghz band something different. I set mine up with the same name of the 2.4 ghz network with 5ghz in parenthesis (i.e. BobbyG and BobbyG (5 Ghz)).
Sorry for the long post but we need the scan function in the house for my wife's teaching purposes. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.
Very Respectfully,
Bobby G.

ITunes doesn't appear after installing iTunes 7.6

I posted this earlier in the topic "Itunes installation headache" (because my problem looked very similar), but I got an email that I should open my own topic (because this post was deleted). So here it is!
I already got a respons about deleting the threat "Trackware.SAHAgent". And I tried to follow the instructions, but I couldn't find any of the subkeys on my computer which where named in the article. So I'm going to ask a friend to check if I did it right, just to be a 100% sure. But for now my question still remains, so read below please.
I think I've got the same problem with iTunes. Two days ago I updated my iPod (classic). After the update my iPod wouldn't synchronize with iTunes anymore, because it required iTunes 7.6. I had iTunes 7.4.3, which never worked completely perfect. (The error "iTunes might be unable to launch or communicate with iPod or iPhone" appeared, even after I followed the instructions online, but I didn't bother me, because the rest of the program worked just fine.)
So to synchronize my iPod again, I downloaded and installed iTunes 7.6. The screen with "Congratulations, the installation is complete etc." appeared and I tried to run iTunes, but it didn't appear and there were no errors. The weird thing is, that when I tried to shut down the computer I received a message that iTunes is running. (I don't have problems with Quicktime, by the way)
I tried the following things, but iTunes still won't work:
open iTunes manually
deleting SC Info
using the microsoft clean up tool
reinstall iTunes after deleting iTunes, Quicktime, Apple Mobile Device Support and Apple Software Update
switching to Selective Startup
running iTunes in a new user account (wasn't able to open iTunes there either)
So I runned the virus scan online. It only detected one threat named: "Trackware.SAHAgent". I couldn't find the removal information on the symantec site, so I only deleted the .exe file which was infected. I don't know if that was a smart move, but nothing changed.
What should I do to get iTunes running again? I really need 7.6 to run, because trying to reset the settings on my iPod didn't work either. So reinstalling iTunes 7.4.3 isn't an option, because my iPod won't synchronize then.
I hope that someone has a solution.
(by the way: I also opened a MP3 file just to try if music start playing even when you can't see iTunes, but it remained silent.)

I have the same exact problem.
(Except I have recently run a virus/malware scan and I do not have the same virus/malware you appear to have)
I need help too please!

Internal Microphone doesn't work (after installing Boot Camp 3.1)

I have installed Boot Camp 3.1, and after this installation, my internal mic doesn't work (ONLY IN WINDOWS XP).
I tried to fix the problem with several manners (hardware test in CONTROL PANEL / SOUND .../ VOICE TAB / VOICE RECORDING; reinstalling drivers and hardware etc), but I can't get success (for example, the test results: SORRY, NO SOUND IN MIC...).
On the other hand, when I boot as Mac (Snow Leopard), I can use the mic (in skype, for example), without problem.
I note that ear plug (connector in the back of the iMac) doesn't work too.
Somebody can help me in this case ?
Regards
JGFilho

i got a macbook pro, 2 weeks ago, the 2.53Ghz unibody aluminium, the desing of this mac is great even tough the system specs are really low for the price actually, im happy with it(the hardware)...
The only reason i got this is cause apple claims to support windows, i like Mac OS, but i work on windows i need it... if theres no windows capability in mac i wouldnt ever buy one, so this issue is really bothering me A LOT. my impresions about apple are changing after seing this topic filled with questions and not a single moderator answer, go and check a logitech forum and see how they take care about user problems.
