How do I fix Registry Errors that occured during Install of iTunes latest version?

Hardware/Software info:
Acer Aspire lapton 5535-5050
Vista Home premium OS
2 GB Ram
250 GB Sata HDrive
AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core QL-64 bit processor
I recently installed the latest version of iTunes vers. 11.x per the iTunes update process. Afterwards
itune 11 worked ok aside from the totally different startup or Store page looking so different.  Later
I tried to burn a disc from my current iTunes Library and found out my CdRom drive had been disabled
due to registry errors during the iTunes update process.  The end result was to get my CdRom drive
back in operation, I had to due a System Restore (using Vista home premium) back to a date before
the iTunes update.
It was a successful Restore and my CdRom drive is now working again but iTunes will no longer run
due to missing files not found during attempts to start iTunes.  It tells me to reinstall iTunes again.
1. Do I Uninstall the partial copy of iTunes listed on my Program list? (appears to iTunes 10.07.21)
   first or just do an install of iTunes 11.x from the Apple iTunes web site?
2. What is the risk of the new iTunes causing Windows registry errors and disabling my CdRom again?
3. What is the risk of other registry errors from the new version of iTunes?

I had the same problem after installing version 11, my CD/DVD drive was disabled/uninstalled completely.
I restored version 10.7 to get my iTunes functionality back using a backup i created before the upgrade.
Unfortunately, not being a PC wiz, I had to contact DELL support to fix the problem as a simple reinstall of the drivers failed to fix the problem. I am fortunate to still have hardware support as the PC is only 7 months old. DELL thankfully were fully aware of the problem and deleted the "Upper & Lower Filters" from my registry ("how to" available from a Google search for anyone confident enough to do this alone).
I still get the request to reinstall iTunes software on starting itunes, but for now I just click OK and move on and iTunes works fine (using version 10.7). I will probably reinstall 10.7 after doing another backup, but for now I don't need to and can do without the added grief.
DELL said this was a common problem that is easily fixed, but as yet are unaware of any further issues.
I have an Dell Inspiron 620, running on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS with 6GB Ram
Hope this helps, if nothing more than assuring you that you are not alone.

  • When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?

    When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
    it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.

    Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings.  Be sure to turn it off.
    You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account.  You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
    To create a new icloud account, go to
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account.  (have restrictions turned off)  That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices.  Then sign in using the new ID.

  • How do I correct spacing errors that occured when converting a word file to pdf?

    I have a microsoft word file that when converted to pdf is changed. If I import it I loose the font style if I upload it I keep the fonts but the spacing on the document is all wrong. Any suggestions?

    Hello there,
    Thanks for posting; this is an error that we see from time to time, and typically has to do with the document's formatting. Sometimes a font used in the original document is not available on our conversion servers; while we do have a lot of fonts installed on those servers, we don't have every font in the world. A missing font will be substituted and those substitutions can lead to the results you observed. Additionally, image placement, line breaks, and page breaks sometimes change if you save to other formats. Although there's not a specific button to click to fix the problem, you may want to toy with any strange or special spacing that you've used in the document, or substitute a more standard font of your own choosing. Please let me know if you need more help or information!
    Best regards,
    Rebecca

    I am having a problem try to restall my printer back onto my Laptop Windows 7 system. I continue to get the completed down load and on the last step the error code comes up with 0x000000c1. Can someone help please?

    Sorry that you are having a problem with re-installing the software and drivers for the printer. 
    How are you uninstalling your product? It may still have old software on the computer, and it's getting confused between the re-install. 
    Try the link below to perform a L3 uninstall. Then re-install again.

  • HT2489 How do I fix this error when trying to install a software update?

    The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by “Apple”.

    I'd try updating using a .dmg installer downloaded from the Apple Website:

  • How do I fix an app that hung at "installing."

    I have a 1st gen iPad. When attempting to install the app "Tunnel Town," I purchased from the app store. No icons ever appeared on my home screen. It is not installing in the Game Center. However, the app store still shows "installing," after 2 days. I have signed in and out of the app store. I have restarted the iPad.

    Did you reset the iPad? Hold the power & home buttons until the screen goes black (ignoring the slider). Release the buttons and let the iPad boot up.

  • Error 1311 occurs during install of NIDAQ 6.9.3

    I downloaded NIDAQ 6.9.3 from the NI download site, and followed the directions for installing. Unfortunately, every time I attempted to run the setup.exe, I got an error 1311 "cant find file daqlv61eng.cab".
    I downloaded a second time from the NI site the Nidaq693.exe file and started the entire process a second time. However the error 1311 occrued again.
    I read in another post that this can happen sometimes from a cd file being copied to a hard drive, but I saw no posts for my particular problem occuring with an Internet download.
    I currently have NIDAQ 6.9.2 installed, and I am installing 6.9.3 to see if it eliminates an error I get when I run my VI:
    "10401 AI group Config. NI-DAQ LV device is not a NI driver, or d
    evice not cinfigured."
    I went to devices in measurement and automation explorer and I can see the board there, PCI-MIO-16E-4. I have uninstalled the board several times, and reinstalled and hit F5 in max, but this did not help. Appreciate any help.

    Hef,
    Perhaps the VI has been modified on the new PC. Let's just try an example VI. What does the VI you are using do? If it uses analog input then try an analog input shipping example. If it uses analog output, then try an analog output shipping example. If you don't get the error with the example, then the error is a result of your program.
    Additionally, you may want to run the E-Series Online Diagnostic Utility on your board to determine if it is functioning properly. This online utility just takes a few minutes to run and will generate a report after checking your hardware.
