ERROR WITH ITUNES SETUP ASSISTANT

My iTunes got corrupted and I had to delete and re-install, when I did that I now get the Setup assistant every time I click on iTunes. I attempted going to my preferences to see if there was anyway to remove but unable to locate. Also, any changes I make under my preferences such as the file path gets reset whenever I close out of iTunes and re-open. Please help

I'm having this problem also. I tried following the instruction in the post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7973312&#7973312
however, I stopped short of reimporting all my music as AirForceEngineer did.
In the end, I couldn't get past the setup assistant.
Still need a solution.
Thanks.

ITunes Setup Assistant Warning Dialogue Box

I upgraded to version 6.0.4.2 and now a dialogue box appears each time I start iTunes.
It is titled "iTunes Setup Assistant" and has the following text: Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.
It does go away when I click on the Ok button and I can import and burn songs so it seems be just a nuisance. How do I get rid of it permanently?

hi HaryCary!
Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.
for some advanced techniques for dealing with that error message, see:
iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting CD issues caused by device filters
but if you'd prefer to try some quicker and dirtier techniques, you could:
(1) reboot and repair
reboot the PC (very important!) and do a repair install of itunes. go to your add/remove programs control panel, select itunes, click "change/remove" and then select "repair".
if no joy with that:
(2) download and install the GEAR drivers itunes uses for burning and importing
GEAR drivers
use the first link on that page, not the one that talks about "gearsec compatibility". if you have Norton Ghost on your PC, read the instructions very carefully. if you still run into trouble with Ghost after the driver install, see:
Message: "Insert the "Norton Ghost 10.0" disk and click OK." after installing iTunes 6

ITunes Setup Assistant

OK, so, I was having a little bit of a graphical issue with iTunes whereby the Preferences window and Get Info... windows were using the old Windows Classic theme. So I decide "A reinstall should do the trick"
So I reinstall, restart and then try to open iTunes and I see the iTunes Setup Assistant. And it just sits there, and sits there. I can't click the next button
I've tried:
- reinstalling both iTunes and QuickTime again and again (didn't work)
- downgrading iTunes (did work)
- downgrading QuickTime (didn't work)
I could just stick with an earlier version of iTunes, but I would like to be able to use 7.5

I just purchased a new Dell Inspiron 531 and was trying to download itunes into my new computer but ran into problems. I had itunes on my previous Dell with Windows XP with no problems. However, I get a message saying that iTunes75setup is not a valid Win 32 application when I go to install it. Can you clarify why I'm having this issue and how to resolve it? Thank You

Every time i try to open itunes i get the 'Itunes Setup Assistant'

Every time i try to open itunes i get the 'Itunes Setup Assistant' even though i have already installed and configured itunes. And after exiting this i get onto itunes but all of my music is GONE. (even though i know i can always import it back) But this means that whenever i want to use itunes i have to configure it and import all of my tunes again which takes ageees. The, as soon as i go to open it again i have to repeat the whole process!!! By the way, i have already tried re-installing itunes and every other apple device completely on my computer, but nothing is working!!! ANY HELP WILL BE MASSIVELY APPRECIATED!!! Ps. this only just started happening a week or so ago.

This just started happening to me last week also. After I went through the setup process I could get into my itunes but would get a msg about library not being saved due to user not being an administrator. I went into my program files opened the itunes folder right clicked on the itunes music folder and clicked on "Run as administrator". I haven't had a problem
since. Don't know if this will work for you but I guess it won't hurt. good luck.

Hi,
got it fixed! My Son had both files on his Win7 iTunes installation. Never mind he had no issues whith ths iTunes and iPhone Sync. So I checked my other Win XP PC, where I don't have this problem syncing my ipad, and surprise. Both files do NOT show up on this PC. So I renamed the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe I found under c:\program file\iTunes and synced again my iPhone and it went through without any error. So the problem might be and unremoved iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe or the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll under the iTunes install root folder and this even if I had checked that the folder was completely removed during iTunes unistall.
Please try yourselve and just rename the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe to iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe_ under c:\program file\iTunes or get a copy of the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll and cp to c:\program file\iTunes.

Why won't Apple Mobile Device Support install with itunes setup??

Why won't Apple Mobile Device Support install with itunes setup?? I keep trying to reinstall, and installs everything but Apple Mobile Device Support. How come. will someone please help me?? I updated windows, and thoroughly removed everything before i reinstalled itunes. I don't know why it's Apple Mobile Device Support isn't going on there. HELP! Is there anyway i can just download and install Apple Mobile Device Support by itself???!

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.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if a component such as Apple Mobile Device Support won't install normally.

ITunes Setup Assistant runs every time I start iTunes 7.3.1.3

The past 2 iterations of iTunes have had the same problem for me - even though the program is installed already, it doesn't save my settings and runs the setup assistant every time I start the application. I've gone through the assistant twice and put everything as I had it previously but, once I close the program and restart, the assistant pops up again and my settings are gone. I never had this problem until 7.3 or 7.3.1 and it's very frustrating... (>_<)<br>
IBM T43 Windows XP Pro 2.0 ghz Pentium M, 1 gig ram

Well, iTunes appears to finally work correctly. I don't know exactly why this is but it's due to one of three possible things. First, I uninstalled the 2 programs that I had installed to monitor what music I played for their services. These programs were Last.fm for Windows Version 1.3.1.1 iTunes plugin version 2.0.11.0 and Virb.com iTunes Plugin Version 1.0.0.5. Finally, instead of using the Apple Software Update on my computer as I had previously, this time I went directly to Apple's website, downloaded the entire iTunes + Quicktime install package, and reinstalled from that. After doing so, the Setup Assistant ran again but finally remembered my altered settings upon program restart. Now that iTunes was working properly, I have reinstalled both plugins and they now appear to function properly without negatively affecting iTunes. I hope this helps people who have also installed plugins to monitor their music listening patterns and had problems with the latest iTunes update.

How to fix Communications error with Itunes in FronRow

I've had the " An error was encountered while communicating with itunes" message whilst trying to play music in Fron Row.
I ran Apple support and they advised me to check on the settings for where the itunes library was located. I did this and stiil the error persisted.
After much searching I found the solution... Completely remove iTunes then reinstall it.
Heres how...
Drag the application's icon to the Trash. Open the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder and look for one or more preference files named "com.apple.iTunes....plist" and drag them to the Trash. Look in /Library/ folder for an iTunes folder and if you find one drag it to the Trash. Look in /Home/Library/ folder for an iTunes folder and drag it to the Trash. Last, in /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder look for two files with names com.apple.nnnnnnn.plist and drag them to the Trash.
Open Activity Monitor (Utilities folder) and in the process list look for iTunesHelper. Select it, then click on Quit Process icon. Quit or Force Quit the process. Now open the Accounts preference pane, click on Login Items tab, look for the iTunesHelper entry and select it, then click the "-" button and remove it from the list.
Empty the Trash. This should fully remove iTunes and its associated files/folders.
It works like a dream, the communication error has gone and I can play music once again. Hope someone might find this helpfull

I'm glad you found a solution that worked for you and appreciate your clear description.
It does seem a bit drastic, however. For others I would suggest at first trying one or both of these Apple support suggestions:

5002 error with iTunes 9.1 when updating apps

I'm getting a 5002 error whenever I attempt to update an individual app via a 'Get Update' button in iTunes on all accounts on the machine. The app still downloads, but the error dialog comes up every single time. This did not occur prior to an update to Mac OS X 10.6.3 and iTunes 9.1.
Anyone else having this problem or know of a fix? Note that I have already tried the following:
- Clean/reinstall of iTunes.
- Removal/re-add of all apps (and confirmation that even with iTunes only having one app 'installed' the same problem occurs).
- Update of account details.
- Removal and deletion of all ad-hoc builds/apps with 'generic' icons.
Full error message:
"We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (5002).
There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."
This doesn't happen with 'Download All Free Updates', but with multiple account downloads still broken, that button's only an option for me if the apps are for a single account.
Message was edited by: CraigG

The updates still download on my Mac, too - but the dialog is clearly something that shouldn't be there. Regarding the 'major version' error, that, as I stated, is down to multiple accounts. According to my communication with Apple, this is not intentional, but there's also not a timeframe for a fix. (This error started when the update screens started showing apps from all accounts, not just the one signed in.)

Error with iTunes "The iPod Group Storage cannot be used with iTunes...."

I bought a usb hub to accomodate my multiple usb devices. I plugged my iPod into this and got the following error:
"The iPod Group Storage cannot be used with iTunes because it is not formatted properly."
I plugged the iPod into the computer rather than the hub. Same thing
Tried to restore, per the error message's direction. It says it has restored it to factory settings, then it brings up that message again.
I uninstalled and re-installed iTunes. Same thing. It was playing fine but it needs re-charging now and it won't because of the error.
Does anyone have any ideas? I don't know what to do now.
Thanks.

Try to reset your iPod using the recovery mode as described in this support article
However, this will erase the iPod completely. If you have an iTunes-backup on your computer you can restore your iPod settings later from the backup.
I have never tried this in WIndows, however. The procedure might be slightly differeent.

IPhone 3G 2.1 connection error with iTunes 8 on Windows Vista Enterprise

I was previously able to connect my iphone with my work computer (Windows Vista Enterprise) and it would recognize my phone. However, since I updated my iphone to version 2.1, it will not recognize the phone and gives me the following error message:
"iTunes could not connect to the iphone because an unknown error occured (0xE8000024)."
I am able to connect my phone with version 2.1 to my home computer running Windows XP SP2.
Any idea what may be causing the connection error in Windows Vista?

Hey TranceCadet,
This could be caused by a USB connection issue.
Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to a high speed USB port on the PC and not plugged into a hub, monitor, or keyboard. Disconnect any other USB devices, other than the keyboard and mouse.
This article has some general USB troubleshooting tips: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286
You may also want to disable or reconfigure any security software. This article will walk you through putting the PC in a selective startup mode, which will bypass most application conflicts.

Help ! Going crazy : stuck with leopard Setup Assistant

I've installed and used Leopard since its launch.
Experienced some minor problems : iCal stopped when trying to open a Task... Bin could not empty on securized mode.
Today, after the same problem, I had to force to reboot and now it's running to Mac OS X Setup Assistant again and again, as if it never got it.
What can I do ?
Thanks for your help.

It does not appear that the Skype team is monitoring the forum as there are many of these threads floating around unanswered
I don't know if it's the first rule of website design, but people forget their passwords all the time. If you really want people to use your services, Microsoft, you should remove this ridiculous loop from your system.
The most commong problem in all these cases is the following:
A user signed up for Skype account "john.doe456" a few years ago using an email address [email protected]
Later the user linked their Microsoft account [email protected] to the Skype account
Now it's March 2015 and they try to reset their Skype account password and request a password reset using the [email protected] email.
Users will always be forwarded to the Microsoft account password recovery. To reset the Skype account password you need to request the password recovery to the [email protected] registered email address of the Skype account. Many users have forgotten what their Skype account registered email was because they haven't updated them for long. In this case you need to contact Skype CS and get your primary account email changed. The starting point for this process is to fill out the form for "I don't know my registered email address" here:

I just want to know if it's just me or if the store is down itself?

I have been recieving the same error for the last three days (Feb '08) I can access every part of the iTunes store except shopping cart. I get the same message on two different PC's.
I have been using Shopping Cart as a "wishlist" and really dont want to have the contents cleared as I cant remember everything I've put in there. This bug seems fairly prominent on Apples part based on the number of posts about it in the forums.
Can someone point me to a good source of info on a fix for this?

App Install error with iTunes 7.7 (Facebook and MySpace Apps)

Whenever I try to sync either the Facebook or MySpace apps from the App Store, I receive the following error:
The application "Facebook" was not installed on the iPhone "Ray's iPhone" because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000013).
and
The application "MySpace" was not installed on the iPhone "Ray's iPhone" because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000013).
I've tried deleting and redownloading the apps multiple times. Anyone else had this problem or gotten around it?
Thanks - Ray

I downloaded a few free apps also and it didn't take. When I tried downloading it again it said that it's already downloaded and I have to sync the phone up with iTunes and click Store -> Check for purchases.
Well I did that, but the Store is still down so it didn't sync it with the phone. I'll keep trying.
