iTunes says: I'm updating when I'm not

I recently updated my Windows 8.1 for Windows 10 and I am running iTunes vs 12.1.2.27. I have the settings to automatically search for updates, and it used to do that on Windows 8.1. Now on W10, when I manually select "Search for updates", the message box comes up saying I'm already under the latest version, but I see we vs 12.4.0 out there today.  Why is this?  I'm on a laptop Dell Inspiron, W10 64-bit.  Any suggestions? Thought I would ask before downloading a new facility and what might cause other problems.

Thank you

Hello demenzes

Thank you for reaching out to the Apple of community support. I know it's important to keep things up-to-date so that your software is always running better there. In such cases, particularly with the upgrade to a new operating system, it may be a good idea to do a clean installation of iTunes on your computer.

This will take some time, but this does not alter your data in music or media in your library. When you re-install iTunes everything will be right there ready to go.

This article will guide you through removing iTunes and its related programs, 5 in total, and then you can re - install iTunes on apple's site:

Remove and reinstall iTunes and the components of the software for Windows 7 and later versions

If you are having problems, the community is there to help.

Best regards.

  • iTunes says files in iCloud when the library is stored locally

    I am a subscriber of Apple's music. Just upgraded to the latest iTune 12.4.1.6 on my PC Windows 10. This PC stores all my music files taken from the original CD. Just noticed that all my music now has icon cloud beside him and I get the option to download. Before clicking play a music file information would show the way to the file on my PC. He said now iCloud status: Apple music and location: iCloud.

    That's happened? Why iTunes is no longer using the local files and try to play my music to iCloud?

    Is this the 'normal' behavior now?

    What happens if I unsubscribe from Apple's music in the future?

    The original files are still in the directory Musique\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music.

    show preferences iTunes library is in the same place, maintaining organized files and the files are copied to the media folder when adding to library.

  • Every single extension I have is broken. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work either. They say they will updated when Firefox is restarted, but I can't even open the preferences for each plugin.

    Does not work an extension of solitaire. Many of them say they'll be updated to Firefox is restarted. Apparently, some of them seem to work, but by clicking on the 'Préférences' button does not cause any response. I have Firefox 3.6.13. I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the extensions (Stumbleupon) but nothing is. I have to be re - install Firefox here?

    This can happen if one of the files which stores information about the extensions you installed is corrupted. The difficulty that see the section on extension files corrupt in the article Impossible to install add-ons (extensions and themes) .

  • Windows Vista Security says McAfee is installed when it is not (I think)

    I have windows defender because I was sick of the Security Center shouting that my pc is not protected and I was sick of hiding updates all the time. I also installed Norton. I uninstalled McAfee off my pc when I installed Norton. Now the windows Defender said that my virus programs are incompatible and that McAfee is still there. I went through Add/Remove, I looked in program files manually and I even went through the registry - deleted a single stray McAffe register, but he always says that he is there. I'm a little frustrated now. If there is someone who knows what I do, I would be very grateful. Thank you!

    Hello

    Run the McAfee removal tool to remove the remains. Good time to uninstall Norton and run its
    Both removal tool. Use something less bloated and more compatible such as recommended
    below.

    =================================

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
    Operation of the network.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

I turned off the computer, uninstalled and deleted every bit of flash player, that I can find but when I try to install it again it still says that only one instance can run at a time and will not be installed

  • Disk utility says Everything is Fine, when it's not

    I am trying to understand what the point of disk utility. I checked (several times) my boot drive (SSD) and a second internal HARD disk, disk utility says it all goes well and nothing in need of repair. Meanwhile, I can say drives are certainly * not * ok since I get poor system performance, and the HARD disk is sprayed randomly when I access/copy some files.

    I went and got the SMART utility and Disk Warrior, SMART utility written my boot drive is FAILING and my HARD drive has FAILED.

    I am now under DW on it, but I'm pretty annoyed that utility disk is essentially useless to see if there are problems with the discs...

    Disk utility and disk warrior can only repair the files in the directory, they are unable to repair a disk that is physically / mechanically failing.

When I went to the file management bar to my dvd, CD-ROM drive was almost to the end, indicating that the disk is almost full (and not empty), but the bar was red instead of the normal blue. I have another copy of the disc, so I got that one. Once more after watching it for about 30 minutes, the photos have disappeared and he told me to drag items to burn.

  • Say there is jams when there is not.

    The printer stops, says there is a jam and there isn't.  I looked and there is no bits of paper stuck inside.  He wil make loud slamming noises or grinding noises and then stop and say he is blocked.  I just press OK and it usually comes out.  Sometimes, he will spit on a white sheet or it will not print the sheet that "stuck".  And now it's printing the pages a little twisted.  I checked the cartridges and they move freely, the paper is stacked evenly and 20 pounds of paper.  Don't know where to go from here.  Thanks to all those who may have an idea!

    Given that the 4500 is seen frequent paper jam messages, and the impressions come out twisted, I bet the problem is dirty rollers. Follow the steps described in this document. Most of it you probably did, but in any case, follow the steps just to double check. If this does not work, try the resets listed below. If none of this works, you need to replace the printer.

    To do a hard reset:
    1. make sure that the printer is turned on.
    2. pull on the power cord from the printer.
    3. pull out the power cord from the wall.
    4. wait for 30 seconds.
    5. plug in the printer and turn it on.

    To make a partial reset:
    1. make sure that the printer is turned on.
    2. pull on the power cord from the printer.
    3. pull out the power cord from the wall.
    4. wait for 30 seconds.
    5. plug the power cord into the wall, but do not connect the printer.
    6. press 3 and # buttons.
    7. while now buttons, plug in the printer.
    8. when the lights come on, release the buttons.

  • Firefox, adobe flash player needs update when it is not

    I am running Firefox desktop 35.0.1. I have Adobe flash player installed 16.0.0.235, which is practically the last version, but for Firefox tells me that I should update the plugin and "Always enable" is greyed out. This means that I have to manually turn on the flash on any page I visit which it executes.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks sam, what it seems that this is supposed to be so this could not explain the source of the problem unfortunately.
