Itunes crasches on win xp home

Hi
I have two computers currently one dimension 3000 and one 5000. On dim3000 I run win XP Pro and Home on dim5000.
On the home computer Itunes crasches(itunes has encounterd a problem and cant start, bla bla... hope you know what I mean) now and then and I have to reinstall the OS and itunes again, usually this happens after an update by the windows update client.
The funny thing is when you read about it on apple.com they recommend you uninstall Itunes and clean the registry and then reinstall a newly downloaded version of itunes.
Ofcourse I havn´t been able to get itunes working again by doing this, and ended up reinstalling XP. This problem never occurs on my computer with the Pro version oc XP, does anyone know anything of this.
Now after a long babbling meaningless ranting(feel a bit better now =)), the question: How do I go about to get itunes working again wihtout reinstalling the OS, and shouldn´t there be a bugfix or something to download to fix this?
Have a nice day
love Norps

I am seeing this as well with iTunes 8, Windows XP and an Airport Express. But here's the thing I did also have this problem after a previous update (to Itunes 7 I think) and after some research I found a fix which was to change Quicktime - Preferences, Audio to Safe Mode. After updating to iTunes 8 the skipping started again - and I checked Quicktime audio preferences which still is in safe mode.
I'm wondering if there is something going on between the audio hardware on the PC and Quicktime. My audio is Realtek AC'97.

  • Latest version of Itunes - using with Win 7 Home Prem on HP Pavilion laptop

    What do you think of using the latest Itunes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on a *HP Pavilion 1360US (pc-based) laptop*? Does anyone know of any problems while using this or has anyone had this same problem? Any suggestions, ideas or comments? I have an IPOD 5th Gen Video 30G. I'm feeling a little scared to get this newer version. But I need to get my IPOD up and running again very soon. It's nothing but a dud at this time and I'm kind of feeling helpless!
    Hopefully someone will respond.

    Is that the "HP Pavilion dv6-1360us Entertainment Notebook PC", Ba, as per the following HP document?
    [Product Specifications|http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01887282&tm ptask=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&swlang=&product=4035647&os=4063]
    If so, there's no potential issues for you with Intel 5-series chipsets (or nVidia chipsets) on Windows 7 systems (given that it's just got the Core 2 Duo processor, not an i3, i5 or i7). The more recent versions of AMDS (that come with iTunes 9.1.1.11 and above) have been installing okay on 64-bit systems by comparison with the previous version 9s (AMDS install rollbacks aren't being reported much nowadays on 64-bit systems). So my main reasons for concern with 64-bit Windows 7 systems don't apply in the case of that laptop.

  • Not able to install iTunes 10.3.1 in my Win 7 home edition OS, while installing getting "\\APPDATA not accessible" Network path not accessible and installer stops

    Hi,
    Installation of iTunes 10.3.1 fails in my notebook which has Win 7 home edition OS. Earlier i had iTunes 10.2.1 which was working perfectly, later upgrade installation fails.
    need help.

    Does no one have an idea?

  • I SET UP THE HOME SHARING ON MY COMPUTER, AND i CAN STREAM MY PHOTOS AND SEE ALL THE VIDEOS AND LISTEN SONGS IN MY ITUNES, BUT CAN NOT DO HOME SHARING, ON THE TV, ALWAYS SHOWS "TURN ON HOME SHARING ON YOUR OMPUTER WITH YOUR ID WHICH I DID BUT NOTHING HELP

    I just bought my apple tv yesterday and SET UP THE HOME SHARING ON MY COMPUTER, I CAN STREAM MY PHOTOS AND SEE ALL THE VIDEOS AND LISTEN SONGS IN MY ITUNES, BUT CAN NOT DO HOME SHARING, ON THE TV, ALWAYS SHOWS "TURN ON HOME SHARING ON YOUR OMPUTER WITH YOUR ID WHICH I DID BUT NOTHING HAPPEN. WHAT'S WRONG? WHAT SHALL I DO NOW?

    I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem.  The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6.  (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
    So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
    You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
    Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

  • Audition 3.01 will not open .cda files from audio cd Win 7 Home 64 bit

    I installed Adobe Audition 3 on my new laptop...installed the 3.01 patch, everything seems to work fine, but extracting audio from cd's and opening cda files from audio cd's...my previous laptop was win 7 pro 32 bit and had no problems with this...this laptop is win 7 home 64 bit. I am able to import the cda tracks as wav files via itunes, but shouldn't have to do this...help. I can see the files in the open file list, but when I select one it says raw PCM or Unsupported format...

    I just checked and I can open a CD track for editing in Audition 3.01 Win 7 64-bit Professional at File>Extract Audio From CD.  Not sure why it isn't working for you.
    But there are several threads on this issue in the archives, which you can read by inserting "cda file" without the quotes in Search Forums (note that there are two Search windows on the forum pages, and you want the one that's labeled "Search Forums").
    Here's one good thread on it, for example:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/1191507#1191507
    I know you want this to work in Audition, and it should, but if you want a quick workaround, rather than iTunes, I'd try downloading and using the freeware program Exact Audio Copy (available now in version 0.99 beta 05) to rip a WAV and open that in Audition.

  • ITunes won't open at home... Quicktime/iTunes compatibility?

    My laptop was configured by work IT and when I'm docked at work I can open iTunes no problem. At home, it won't open! I guess the Quicktime message telling me to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, which I've done, but still nothing. I'm on a Dell laptop that runs Windows 7. Ideas?

    At home, it won't open! I guess the Quicktime message telling me to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, which I've done, but still nothing
    Is that a -2096 message, draik?
    If so, that one is often a compatibility mode problem. Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

  • TS2529 I am unable to backup my iphone 5 iOS 6.0.1 (connected directly to laptop USB) with my itunes 11 for Win 7 64bits. The process starts and fails to complete giving the error: itunes could not complete backup of iphone because iphone disconnected.

    I am unable to backup my iphone 5 iOS 6.0.1 (connected directly to laptop USB) with my itunes 11 for Win 7 64bits. The process starts and fails to complete giving the error: itunes could not complete backup of iphone because iphone disconnected.
    I have restarted the PC, the iphone, changed the lightining cable and nothign resolves it: backup never completes.

    Hi, I disabled the antivirus and the firewall. Same result
    I even deleted the backup folder inside C:\Users\...\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup to eliminate any corruption in the old backup files.
    Nothing changed: Session either times out or i get the same error message: itunes could not back up iphone because iphone disconnected. It always happens during step 3 out of 4 which is "transfering purchased apps from iphone to PC" and comes after step 2 which is backup.
    My iphone 5 is not jailbroken, and is a factory unlocked phone.
    Any other suggestion?
    Pls help

  • WIN 7 Home Premium and a HP mini 210-1000!

    Have mini 210-1000, refurb, came with a WIN 7 Starter, never did check and record the product key that came with...ERROR!
    1.  Went on line 12 days ago and purchased WIN 7 Home premium.  Have spend HOURS on line with MS techs trying to get it to install.  Came here before I waste any more time.
    This machine has 1G RAM - CAN it install WIN 7 Home premium?
    2.  Since the last attempted install (MS using PowerISO Virtual Drive Manager (free download ver.), and which was UNsuccessful, my HP and MS now tell me that my WIN 7 Starter is 'not genuine' and they give me several options to obtain the product key. 
    The product key in control panel/status is not EVEN in the correct format and starts with 2 (unacceptable) zeros...
    IF this machine was refurbed by HP or Contractor, does HP have a usable product key to return me to normal operation?  Am having trouble re-reaching the MS tech, I believe HE's out of ideas...
    ANYone know a guru ?  Am not quite ready to invest  $$$ to fix a mess that MS started - and it's a long, long story...which takes me back to the original question:  am I asking my Notebook to install WIN 7 Home Premium when it's not able??
    Thank you for any help you can provide!

  • Program runs in win 7-64 Pro BUT will not run in win 7 home or vista.

    Program runs in win 7-64 Pro BUT will not run in win 7 home or vista.
    I'm testing 32bit software that will run in 7-64 Pro but will not in win 7 home premium or vista.
    The 7-64 Pro machine is NOT running the program in XP mode although is is being run as admin. The 7 home premium and vista beta testers have tried every work around/mode, admin mode, and anti-virus exception. I've run process explorer & WinMerge to evaluate
    the differences between os operations & dlls loaded but am unable to find the OS issue.
    Currently 2-win7-64 machines, 1 vista machine and 1 win 7 machine had no issues with the program as it started up and ran immediately.
    After 3 beta's 30 hours of testing & 50 of my own, I believe I've narrowed the issue down to the win 7 home premium and vista os's.
    Can anyone here suggest other ways to further narrow it down so as to provide functionality on all 3 os's?

    You must provide the exact name and version of the software for anyone to attempt to answer your question.  Primarily the functionality of any software is entirely dependent on what platforms the publisher intended the software to run on.
