Jan 26, 2014 9:13 AMby Frustrated64,I agree, so far no luck with the "help" from Apple. Will now try to follow the steps I found on this forum (am a bit scared to do so, so will try another reset of the system first) but unfortunately my sunday has been ruined by this "lovely" update from Apple. I do not understand why they do not test the updates properly for windows before they send them into the world

Jan 26, 2014 11:59 AMby BobMBrown,I followed the steps and was able to successfully reinstall iTunes and get it to run. But when I try to access the iTunes Store from within the application, I get the following error:
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. An error occurred (-3213). Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
My internet connect is active and I rebooted my PC, just to make sure, and I get the same error. Any suggestions?

Jan 26, 2014 12:13 PMby EKriege,thank you tt2; this fixed the problem for me as well.
however, this must have been a bad install script from Apple, which corrupted iTunes. i should imagine that many thousands who clicked the Update button are now wondering how to fix their corrupted application. has Apple posted anything on this?
anyway, thanks again!

Fixed ! so winning, I had no issue with libraries going missing etc, these just came back as if there was no issue (for those that were afraid of this). It did reset my prefered import format back to acc for those that use mp3 will have to change back, no biggie.
Poor form Apple, poor form, would recomend to anyone going through this issue that when you get to the reinstall part of this to uncheck the "automatically update software" box... this is going to create some trust issues...

Jan 26, 2014 8:25 PMby inu_hanyou_nikkie,I have an additional queston/concern.
The last time I had to do an iTunes reinstall it told me my library was "attached" to another computer/iPod Classic. I ended up having to make a copy of my iPod hard drive and save it on my computer hard drive, then accept the option to attach the "new" computer/"new" iPod together (even though these are the exact same ones I've had for ages). Not just once but 3 times (including the ever popular 'You must Authorized this computer' and the 'You already have all authorizations used' type messages) and then still in the process of going onto the save file and having to rename every single song back from the 4 character code into the original info and add them all back onto my iPod.
Will this delete and reinstall cause me to have to go through this incredible aggravation/anger inducing, time consuming, nit-pickity trouble all over again?
