BI 7.01 SP06 Software Requirements for Backend System (Source System) ECC6
Hello,
We currently have a NW BI 7.0 SP18 system and an ECC 6.0 SP17 system.
We are looking into upgrading our BI 7.0 to a BI 7.0 EhP 1 SP06.
I've been searching for information on any Software requirements for the ECC 6.0 system to make sure it's compatible with the BI 7.0 EhP1 system.
My question is :
Our ECC 6.0 is @ SP 17, which is equivalent to ECC 6.0 EhP 4 SPS 03.
As a prerequisite for BI 7.0 EhP1 I've read ECC6.0 needs to be at EhP4.
1). Is it adequet to have Support Packs equivalent to EhP4?(SP17)
Or do I need to actually apply EhP4 on the ECC 6.0 system?
2). What is the requirement from a PI & PI-Basis prespective on the ECC 6.0 system, for it to work with BI 7.0 EhP 1 SP06?
Our ECC 6.0 currently has PI_Basis 2005_1_700 SP 17.
Where can I fiind information on this?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thank you.

If its a prerequisite then you have to apply it. When we upgraded our systems we upgraded both ECC and BI to EhP4/NW EhP1 and EhP1 respectively.
2). What is the requirement from a PI & PI-Basis prespective on the ECC 6.0 system, for it to work with BI 7.0 EhP 1 SP06?
Our ECC 6.0 currently has PI_Basis 2005_1_700 SP 17.
PI_Basis on both the systems will be 7.01 as they are upgraded as part of NW EhP1. You have to use Maintenance Optimizer for downloading EhP's which will take care of all the dependencies.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

"The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed..."
I realize my explanation of my problem is long-winded, so if you want a shortened version, here it is:
I've followed all the instructions trying nearly everything, and no matter what I do, iTunes gives me the error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software." My G5 iPod (60GB) works on two other computers (both without any music on them), so I assume there something wrong with my computer and not the iPod itself.
Now for the long-winded story of the last eight hours of my life...
I just got the Generation-5 iPod Video (60GB) a today and I'm having problems already. I followed the instructions and installed the iPod software and then plugged in my iPod (iTunes has been on my computer for a while now). I was expecting iTunes to open after plugging in the iPod, but my device manager only detected and installed "a new device". I manually opened iTunes and got an error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software."
After re-installing the iPod software and iTunes, and restarting my computer countless times, I came looking for help here. I found this page, which seemed to outline my problem exactly. My computer recognizes the iPod as a drive, but iTunes won't have anything to do with it. I have all the symptoms outlined in the heading, so I hoped to solve my problem there. I followed the instructions step-by-step, and after the final restart, I open iTunes to get the same exact error message.
I decided to determine whether there was a problem with my iPod or if it was my computer. I plugged my iPod into my uncles's powerbook, and got to the point where I can name and configure my iPod. I expected it to work flawlessly on a Mac (which it did) but there is no way for me to continue using a Mac (after tomorrow) for my iPod. This formatted the iPod for a Mac, so I went to another (different from the original) Windows computer, clean of any iTunes and iPod software, and followed the instructions exactly as they're supposed to be followed. After the installations, I plugged in my iPod, and although iTunes didn't open, I was able to format back to Windows and name my iPod (a step in the right direction). I should note that my (anti-iPod) computer is a Windows XP Pro, and the working one is Windows XP Home Edition. This was all well and good, until I remembered there was no music on this computer. So my iPod is completely working there, but there isn't anything I can do with it.
Next, I came back here and browsed around the discussion boards, hoping to find somebody with a similar problem to mine. There seems to be alot of errors concerning iTunes not recognizing the iPod, but none of the solutions I tried worked for me, including changing the drive letter. I get the "iPod Service Error" while trying to restore to factory settings through iPod updater.
Of course, I could transfer all 32GB of music from one computer to another, but the second (working) computer isn't mine and I won't have access to it in a couple months. It would be most convenient if I could get my iPod working on my own computer. Any help would be appreciated, especially from somebody who has solved this problem or know how to solve this problem.
P.S.
Here are some other minor details that my be important, but I didn't feel they were worth including.
- My brother has his iPod mini set up on my computer, under a different user login. He gets the same error once in a while, but re-installing iTunes always solves the problem for him. I had him try solving my problem his way, but nothing worked for him either.
- My computer is an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+, 512MB RAM with Windows XP Pro SP2 installed. My internal hard drive is partitioned, using the letters C, D and H (C being my system files, D used for recovery files and H for my applications and games). My E drive is used as a DVD/CD-ROM Drive, and drives F and G are reserved for virtual drives (none have been running during this entire ordeal). My external hard drive uses the letter I, and I manually set my iPod to use the letter J (I've never used 'J' for anything else before).
- Yes, I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of iTunes and the iPod software.
- I'm assuming there is a problem with my computer and not my iPod, since it worked on both other computers I tried. I'm hoping it's as simple as changing a registry file or cleaning out (yet another) temp directory.Solution to "Software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed"!
I battled this same problem for about 5 hours. Going through re-installations, the "5 R's", all these discussion boards. Nothing worked.
The problem is that iPodService was repeatedly crashing after minute or so. You can verify this by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete and noting that iPodService is missing from the process list (sort by image name), or by right-clicking on My Computer and selecting "Manage", then going to Services and checking out the IPodService service - if it gives you the option to "Start", then it's not running.
Here is what worked.
1. De-install iTunes and iPod (if you have the updater installed) completely by going to Start --> Control Panel --> Add/Remove Programs. Also delete the C:\Program Files\iTunes and c:\Progam Files\iPod\bin directories. (Don't worry, this doesn't affect your saved music files.)
2. Log in as an Administrator
3. Go into the registry (note this is dangerous - you should be careful) and remove the iPod entries that the uninstaller misses.
3.1 Go to Start menu --> Run.
3.2 Type in "regedit".
3.3 Go to HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodService.iPodManager.
There are two keys here, iPodManager and iPodManager.1. In my case, I did not have permission to view either of these. I think this is the root cause of the problem. I think the installer can't properly update these because it doesn't have permission. So you need to change the permissions:
3.4 Right-click on IPodService.IPodManager
3.4.1 Select "Permissions..." A warning will appear saying you don't have permission, but that you can change permissions.
3.4.2 On the window that launches, click on "Advanced..."
3.4.3 Click on the "Owner" tab.
3.4.4 Select a valid account (the one you're logged in under) under "Change Owner To".
3.4.5 Hit "OK".
3.4.6 Back on the main Permissions window, hit Add and add the same account as a valid user.
3.4.6.1 Where it says "Enter the object names to select", type in the account name, e.g. "Smith".
3.4.7 Click on the "Allow" checkboxes for "Full Control" and "Read".
3.4.8 Hit "OK".
3.5 Repeat procedure for the "iPodManager.1" key.
3.6 Now right-click and delete both of these keys.
I think that's all that's required, but I also searched through the registry and deleted the following keys.
4. Other keys I deleted:
4.1 HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodManager.IPodManagerUI.1
4.2 HKEYLOCALMACHINE --> SOFTWARE --> Apple Computer Inc. --> iPod
I think that's all I deleted, but I'm not positive. I seached for instances of "ipod" using the Find... and Find Next functions under the Edit menu.
5. Exit out of the registry editor.
6. Re-install iTunes. I re-installed iTunes and reconnected the iPod, and everything worked.
I want to repeat that editing the registry can completely mess up your computer if you modify the wrong things, so only do this if you're comfortable, and be extremely careful.
Hopefully this helps!

SOLUTION to "Software required for communicating with the iPod is not insta
Folks, I can not take credit for this.....you should send your checks to MarkinMadison. I've included his post in it's entirety. For me, this was the Holy Grail !!
My only comment is make sure when you are in the registry that you hit the "apply" button to change and add things.
This probably won't solve everyone's problem but it clearly solved mine (and I tried all other "solutions"), as well as Mark's.
Apple: please find out who MarkinMadison is and either cut him a big check or offer him free Ipods for life.

Dimension 4600 Windows XPI have also posted the same question, earlier today. I purchased two for my children and cannot get the iPod to communicate with the computer. I have the iTunes software on my system, but during the installation process I cannot click the NEXT button, once I plug the iPod cable in. The computer does not detect it. I have tried all 6 USB 2.0 ports. I even removed the Dell Jukebox and MusicMatch programs. I am not a computer savvy person - just a mom who wants to give these to my children for Christmas. This is the first "chat" site I have even registered on. I am so very frustrated. Hopefully, this can be resolved.

Having trouble when I launch iTunes (version 11.0.2) on my Dell Laptop running Windows 7 Professional (service pack 1). I get an error message indicating software required to communicate with iPod and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you? I normally respond with OK and it immediately tells me "could not be repaired. Please reinstall iTunes..." I have done this a number of times to no avail.
I also notice Quicktime is not getting installed at all.
That one is normal nowadays (ever since the iTunes versions 10.5.x).
The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
IPod Not Recognized in iTunes & "Software Required for Commun with iPod. .
Pleasse help! I have about 15 hours invested in this problem, includes 2.5 hours with Apple Technicians, and no help.
I have a new 30G Video iPod that isn't detected in iTunes, although I can see it in exlorer and listed as my G drive. The error message that appears when I start iTunes is,
"The software required for communicating wihtthe iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod software."
I have done the "5 R's" about 8 times, and tried other things including changing the drive letter, unintalling Norton, using the msconfig to limit what was running (per the Apple site directions), removed the temp files (per the Apple site directions, "soft reboots" of the iPod (Menu and round button holds), manually running "C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe" from the RUN menu, and running regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\atl.dll (per the Apple Tech) from the RUN menu.
A few other notes, 1) in MSCONFIG, my iPod service does not seem to want to run, it shows as "stopped" 2)I had initally installed the iPodUpdater 2005-10-12, which didn't get me connected, and then later updated to 2005-11-17, which still didn't work. I have also installed from scratch from the apple site. When I try to run the Updater, my error reads "iPod Service Error". I don't even understand what this is supposed to do. Perhpas update the iPod software iteself?
When I connect to the other PC in my home, which was loaded with the same Windows CD's, iTunes fires right away and detects this iPod.
On the PC I am trying to coneect with, I have previously had a successful setup with an iPod mini, but now that doesn't work anymore either.
Apples next step is telling me to uninstall/reinstall Windows. This seems like a pretty drastic, and even more time consuming step . . . one that I'd rather not take unless it is fairly certain to resolve this problem
ANY SUGGESTIONS????
Thank you in advance.

2 error messages when opening itunes: "The software required for communicating with Ipods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want Itunes to repair this for you?" When clicking yes another message indicates not able to remove services. Another message is: "Service (ipod service) could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system sources." I've uninstalled all Apple services (itunes, quicktime, apple software update, apple mobiles devices support, bonjour and apple application support and reinstalled itunes/quicktime - no change in error messages. I cannot burn CDs using Itunes. This all seemed to happen when I updated itunes to version 10. I have a Windows 7 64-bit operating system on a Dell Inspiron Zino HD; the Itunes software is also 64 bit.

When trying to load music from ITunes to my ipod I receive the error "The software required for the ipod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall itunes to install the required sotware"
What should I do to correct the error?For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies. The notes below the box include tips on removing troublesome components.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

The software required for comunicating with ipod is not installed correctly
Hey
I have recently had to reinstall windows xp on my laptop as the moder board crushed
while the installation was done by a professional, since then everytime i plug my 30gb fifth generation ipod to synch with my Itunes library the following message appears:
"The software required for communicating with the ipod is not installed correctly. Please Reinstall Ipod to reinstall the ipod's software."
what does that mean? i thought
I tried to reinstall itunes over twenty times, sometimes deleting it beforehand using the task messenger, but no use.
I have checked to see if my ipod works with other computers and he does, therefore its a problem of the itunes, or my computer.
I am reaching desperation, as i am unable to update and synch my ipod for over a month now.
i need either a solution or a way of maybe installing an older version of itunes, which may work.
can anyone help?
please?i did the research for you and found the link for the 7.5...

(Deployment) Minimum Software required for BUILD server and IIS WebServer
We have a simple .Net SDK application written using VB-2005 and the Crystal Reports XI (R2) DEVELOPER package.
The RPT files are posted on our BOE-XI (R2) server, and are called using the View-On-Demand method from the Page Server (similar to the SDK sample application). At some point in the future, our .Net applications may invoke some of the other SDK content types.
In our environment, the .NET web-applications are checked-in to Clear Case, and then sent to a stand-alone BUILD server to be compiled. The compiled .NET web-applications are then posted to a stand-alone IIS WebServer (not the IIS server that hosts BOE InfoView/CMC).
The BUILD server and IIS WebServer have to be as "stripped-down" as possible in order to go through our QAT and Impact Analysis process.
So far we have had success if we deploy the SDK-only install from the Crystal Reports XI (R2) DEVELOPER package, and the service packs, but it doesn't include all the SDK components for other BOE content types.
If we deploy the Client-only install from the BOE-XI (R2) package, and the service packs - it doesn't seem to include the CR-Viewer which we need. But it does includes a bunch of extra software (eg. UNIVERSE DESIGNER) on the desktop of the BUILD server and IIS WebServer that our QA guys don't like.
What are the Minimum Software required for BUILD server and IIS WebServer to support CR and BOE SDKs...?
Are there any install packages that contain JUST those components, and not all the extra software that is not needed to Build/Deploy in .NET...?
Thanks in advance for the advice.Due to the CrystalDecisions.web.dll for the 2.0 framework being left off the BOE CD you will need to install the Crystal XI R2 runtimes as well as the BOE SDK.
To get the BOE SDK launch the Enterprise XI R2 installer and choose Server Install - not Client Install. Choose a Custom install. You'll be presented with a drop down list for the Enterprise components. Deselect everything and then look for the Developer Components option. You may have to drill down into one of the levels to find it. Under Developer Components you'll see the BusinessObjects Enterprise .NET SDK. Select it to install it.

Pop up in Itunes: the software required for communicating...
I keep getting this message popping up in iTunes: The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod software. I tried a suggestion from this (apple discussions) site and it did NOT work. I am not computer literate and need more help. Thank you.
This is often caused by XP's Fast User Switching, which doesn't work with iTunes:
