How do I turn off compatibility mode for iTunes?

Recently computer keeps on telling me to turn off compatibility mode.
I have tried looking at previous answers but cant find what the instructions tell me. I get as far as opening the itumes folder and then it says right click on the itune ort itunes .exe . I can see lots of files. when i click on the one that says itunes it actually opens up itunes and cant see one that says itunes.exe. thx.

I think I have found a way to do it.
Go to start button
Type into search programs and files
itunes
right click
the compatibility tab then appears and can be switched off.

  • HOW DO I TURN OFF COMPATIBILITY MODE IN VISTA?

    Yes, I know this is more of a Vista question then an iTunes question but if anyone can solve this, I thank you forever:
    I got a new computer that came with Vista on it. When I loaded all of my files from my old computer to my new one, I changed the compatibility settings for iTunes so that they said it would work under Windows XP. Now iTunes seems more Vista friendly, and I want to turn off that compatibility mode, (less "Accept" questions). Anyone know how to do this? I have checked MANY sites and can find guides to turn it ON, but not off.
      Windows XP   iPod mini 4G, iPod video 30G

    I finally found how to turn off the user account control (this so generously provides you with all those annoying questions - just like the mac commercial - cracks me up that it's so true!) The only downside to turning off this functionality is windows puts a shield on your taskbar and tells you it should be turned back on - have to decide which is the lesser of the two evils. To turn off user account control:
    1. Go to your control panel
    2. Click 'User Accounts and Family Safety'
    3. Click 'User Accounts'
    4. Click 'Turn User Account Control on or off'
    5. Uncheck the box and accept the warning.

  • How do you turn off compatibility mode in excel?

    My app opens automatically in compatibility mode.  How do I turn that off.  I only want to use this when I need it.

    Just found this on Google so appreciate post is from 2010 but no-one seems to have mentioned that if you go to File -> Info there is a 'convert' option which you can use to convert from 2003 to 2010 without having to re-save manually yourself.
    It'll come up with a message saying 'do you want to re-open now?', click yes and you'll have a 2010 version of your workbook with no compatability mode.
    I don't think you can turn it off, but it'll stop being a problem once everyone starts using office 2010 anyway which now office 2003 support is ending should be soon, one would hope 

  • How can i turn off internet access for itunes

    Every time i turn on itunes it asks for my internet username and password. If I cancel the request it pops up again after a few seconds and will continue to pop up, even if I put my name and password in.
    This becomes very frustrating when I don't want to use the internet or I don't have a connection. How can I turn this off?

  • HT5262 How do I turn off icloud match for itunes?

    I don't get good internet service on my phone when I am working inside my warehouse. I want to turn off the itunes match feature so it will just play my songs off my itunes instead of trying to find the signal to play the songs off the internet. How do I turn it off?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    From your phone, settings> music> iTunes match> off.
    However rather than turning iTunes match off you may wish to turn show all music off, which only shows the tunes which are currently downloaded to your phone. (Settings> music> show all music> off)

  • Turning Off Compatibility Mode

    Hello,
    Every time that I open iTunes for my PC (Vista operating system), I receive a dialog box that states: "iTunes.exe has been set to run in compatibility mode fore an older version of Windows. For best results, turn off compatibility mode for iTunes before you open it."
    I would like to know how to do the above, or make it so that this does not appear anymore. I have the latest version of iTunes as well, and this has not resolved the issue. Thanks.

  • How to turn off Compatibility Mode on Project 2010

    I am having trouble turning off Compatibility Mode on Project 2010 in our organization - Project is installed as part of Office Professional Plus 2010.
    When I open Microsoft Project it displays [Compatibility Mode] in the title bar.
    When I choose Save As, the type of file is "Microsoft Project 2007 (*mpp)". I can go ahead and change this each time to "Project (*.mpp)" but I would like this to be the default setting for all users.
    Under File, Options, Save - the "Save files in this format" is greyed out and set to "Microsoft Project 2007 (*mpp)".
    I have created a GPO under: User configuration - Policies - Administrative Templates - Classic Administrative Templates - Microsoft Project 2010 - Project Options - Save, and I have set "Save Microsoft Project files as" "Project
    (*.mpp)".
    My only other choices are "Template" or "Project 2000-2003"
    This GPO is applying correctly, however - Project continues to open in Compatibility Mode.
    In my GPO, should I be seeing a set of different option for "Save Microsoft Project files as"?
    Otherwise, am I missing something else in order to turn off Compatibility Mode for Project?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi Paul,
    I have tested with a test GPO and these are the results:
    When "Save Microsoft Project files as" state is set to "Enabled": Opens in Compatibility Mode and under File, Options, Save - the "Save files in this format" is greyed out and set to "Microsoft Project 2007 (*mpp)".
    When "Save Microsoft Project files as" state is set to "Disabled": Project opens fine and under File, Options, Save - the "Save files in this format" is not greyed out and I can choose "Project", "Microsoft Project
    2007", "Microsoft Project 2000-2003" and "Project Template".
    What I believe to be the problem is that "Save Microsoft Project files as" options that are available for me to choose in my GPO do not seem to be aware of Office 2010. The options available are:
    "Project (*.mpp)"
    "Template (*.mpt)"
    "Project 2000-2003 (*.mpp)"
    There is no specific mention of "Project 2007", it seems like the GPO recognises Project 2007 as the most recent when we are in fact using Office 2010.
    Could this be that my Group Policy Templates are for Office 2007 rather than Office 2010? That would be odd as the policy location itself is located under: User Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Classic Administrative Templates/Microsoft Project
    2010/Project Options/Save
    ...so as this specifically mentions Project 2010 I would assume that it is using the correct version.
    Another quick note: I needed to Add Template in GPME so that "Classic Administrative Templates" would be available, and the template I added was proj14.adm which I believe is the correct 2010 template.
    Many thanks,
    Van
