Error when I  try and change settings in iTunes

When I try and add audiobooks, iPod games, party shuffle or change iTunes to my default player (thru edit > preferences in iTunes) I receive this error:
An error occurred while updating the default player for audio file types. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation
Now whatever I pick will show in iTunes after the error message. But will be gone when I close iTunes and reopen.
I am the only one who uses this PC I am not sure how I do not have 'enough access privileges' to change ANY thing in iTunes... Any help to make sense of this would be wonderful thank you in advance.
7.02.16 iTunes   Windows XP  

okay lets say I want to add audiobooks to the library in iTunes. I go into edit > preferences, check audiobooks I get the error about 'not having enough permission to change anything.' All the changes I do make will say. I prefer tunes imported to my 60 gig iPod to be in wav not aac I have to change that. Get the error and move on. It is when I shut down iTunes and re-open is the problem. I have to go in and change everything all back the way I want, every time. So yeah iTunes still works but it is not a major thing I am trying to do, just change my preferences. I don't even want to use iTunes any more.

    Hi,
    When you set your monitor to a screen resolution that it won't support, the screen will go black for a few seconds while the monitor reverts back to the original resolution.
    Regarding screen resolution, we may follow the below two articles to change it:
    Change your screen resolution
    Getting the best display on your monitor
    Follow the steps below:
    1. Open Screen Resolution by clicking the Start button, clicking
    Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and Personalization, clicking Adjust screen resolution.
    2.Click the drop-down list next to Resolution. Check for the resolution marked (recommended). This is your LCD monitor's native resolution—usually the highest resolution your monitor can support.
    And if the monitor is LCD monitor, The monitor's  manufacturer or reseller should also be able to tell you the native resolution for your LCD monitor.  Or we may check the monitor's manual to adjust.

  • When I try and change my Apple ID email address to my Me account email, it won't let me. I want to change it so it goes through my Me email. How do I do this?

    Hey guys,
    So basically as the question above says...
    I have had an Apple ID for a few years now under a Hotmail email. Recently I got a Me account and I want to change my primary email address on my Apple ID to this new Me email address as I no longer use the Hotmail email.
    However, when I try and change it, it simply states "This domain name is reserved for MobileMe accounts."
    Could really use the help, and I thank people in advance for any advice!

    My ipod nano isn't syncing when I try and change the setting in manually, but is however syncing when I launch the itunes by plugging it in. I'm wondering if anyone has had this issue and/or had been able to fix the problem?

    Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing when I try and change brush colour

    Hi, my Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing when I try and change brush colour. I use layer masks a lot and consequently need to switch between black and white brushes. CS6 crashes a lot and gets closed by Windows 7 when I either click in the icon to swap brush colour or press the X keyboard shortcut. It's driving me crazy. I run Windows 7 on a high spec Dell PC. The problem has only started a couple of months ago, had CS6 since it came out. Can I advise me please? Thanks.

    Please read these and proceed accordingly (restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be of special interest):

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Illustrator CC Crashes when I try and change the font

    Help! I can not get Illustrator to work - I reinstalled my wacom driver and have troubleshooted with Wacom. This seems to be an issue with Illustrator.
    When I open a doc or create a new doc the minute I try and change the font it crashes.

    Read the signs for what they are: Your fonts are busted and you have a "bad" font somewhere in there. Remove al lextra fonts and add them back only as needed.

  • I get a error when i try and install iTunes!

    When i try and install iTunes i get this error
    Its really frustrating because i bought a 200$ iPod Touch and then i cant put music on it
    Any help wold be apprecated.
    Ive tried repairing all my .Net
    I have un installed and reinstalled all my Apple Related stuff

    Okay ... it's sounding a bit like you've got something stuck in your "pending update" machinery (the stuff that gets invoked when an update requires a restart). That can interfere with iTunes installs, although it's more common to see a lot of 8000FFFF errors in the Update History when that's going on.
    Rather than experimenting with 8000FFFF instructions, I think instead we should try getting you on the radar screens of some Windows Updates specialists.
    Try posting over at the Windows Update forums at Microsoft Answers:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_update
    In your post there, describe the error message you're getting when installing updates, and the other symptoms (otherwise updates are apparently okay, and so on).
    If the Microsoft Answers folks get you past the Service Pack message, can you then install the new iTunes version?
