Error Message Every Time I Close the Prefs Box

Since I upgraded to iTunes 5 (now on 5.0.1) I get an error message every time I close the Preferences box: "An error occurred while updating the default player for audio file types. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
I am the administrator of my computer; in fact, mine is the only user account so I have to be the administrator.
I get this error message even though I am not trying to change the audio file associations. Weird.
Anyone else run into this problem?
Any suggestions?
thanks
Paul D.

FWIW, I get the same error message. My audio has gotten incredibly choppy too (after upgrading to 5.x), whenever I have another process running on XP that's doing much of anything, regardless of the encoding bit rate of the song being played! Ugh.

  • HT1645 whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing.  I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

    whether i use a DL DVD or just a DVD R, it tells me there was an error during multiplexing.  I have tried changing every setting, best performance, professional quality, etc. and still get the same error message every time i try to burn to dvd.

    Welcome to the forums.
    Looks like that error message does refer to encoding (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1645) but a problem could be that your video has to be reloaded into iDVD if you started the encoding process and then switched settings.  You could start a new iDVD project, or try deleting encoded assets.
    Let's start from the beginning -- what length of video are you trying to fit on the DVD? (this will indicate what encoding options you have).  Double layer DVDs can be finicky and are used for video more than 2 hrs long.
    Use good quality media -- Verbatim is often recommended around here, and I've used Sony DVD-R with good results.

  • I get error message every time firefox starts: xmlNode.getElementsByTagName("id")[0].firstChild is null - 2

    About two weeks ago I started getting this error message every time I started up Firefox: xmlNode.getElementsByTagName("id")[0].firstChild is null - 2.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but the error continues. Then I did a System restore to several months ago, but the error continues. It doesn't happen with any other program.
    Does anyone know how to get rid of it. If it has anything to do with the registry, I'll just have to let it be and switch to a different browser.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Error message every time I try to bookmark something (Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu).

    Firefox 3.6.16 on Ubuntu Lucid.
    Firefox throws up an error message every time I attempt to bookmark a page. When I hit okay in the error window, it allows me to go ahead with the bookmark, but it does it every time. (It started doing it last week, then stopped for no reason that I can identify. Now it's doing it again.)

  • ITunes loses my entire library with artwork, playlists and podcasts every time I close the program. Any advice very welcome

    iTunes loses my entire library with artwork, playlists and podcasts every time I close the program. Upon restarting it takes at least 15 minutes to rebuild the library and podcasts and a lot longer to replace the artwork, I also lose playlists. I would really welcome some feedback and assistance here and am losing faith in the Apple product. Since iTunes has been updated to version 11 it seems to have caused a lot of issues for many people. I am hopeful of a reply and a resolution. I have approx. 1200 albums at just under 90 Gb. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Ditch AVG (at this stage it really does seem to be the problem for some people) and install Microsoft Security Essentials...
