ITunes update to 4.0 requires checking 32-bit mode in "Get Info" window. No such checkbox exists. iTunes refuses to launch. iMac 27-in., Mac OS 10.6.8. Tried re-installing iTunes 4, but went into infinite loop while in "Registering Installed Components"
After updating to iTunes 4, launching the application indicated that 64-bit mode was only available in Mac OS 10.7 Lion and to use in 32-bit mode by checking the 32-bit mode checkbox in the iTunes "Get Info" window. However, this window does not have the aforementioned checkbox. Thus, iTunes is now unusable. Tried to download fresh install from Apple site, but this process went into an infinite loop during the "registering installed components" phase of the installation. Had to force quit. System is iMac 27-inch, Core i7 processor, Mac OS 10.6.8. Is there a problem with iTunes 4? Can I go back to the previous version? Thanks.
Ah! I found several other people with the same problem in this forum. I followed the suggestion to move iTunes 4 from the "Applications" to the desktop and launch it from there. It worked! I moved it back into the Application folder and its still okay. Thanks! This is a definitely a bug that Apple needs to address quickly.

Error Message--ITunes runs in 64-bit mode. Uncheck the Open in 32-bit mode in Get info for ITunes. However it is UNCHECKED. I cannot access itunes at all. What now?
Fallout75, good catch on the eXo plugin. To remove it, in the Finder click "Go" on the menu bar and pull down to "Go to Folder" and then type ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins
When that Finder window opens, you should see an "eXo" subdirectory. Just delete that "eXo" folder and iTunes should start without the error. -
i received an error message "iTunes requires 64-bit mode" says to go into my iTunes application and 'uncheck' the 'open in 32-bit mode' checkbox - i went into the application and the box was not checked anyway so why am i getting this prompt? Never happened before. yesterday did the sofware update for maverick.
Thank you for your response, Chris. But I'm afraid I have to disagree. There are native 64 bit versions of iTunes available for OSX and Windows.
In a 64 Bit Windows environment native 64 Bit Applications install the DLL's in a directory called "Program Files" and a directory called "Program Files (x86)" (32 Bit applications only use the ladder).
iTunes 9 is consistent with this behavior - and it identified itself to the system as a 64 bit application (meaning it's process appears without a "*32" tag on it). -
Installing tcltk2 package goes into infinite loop
Hi
I am trying to load the tcltk2 package downloaded from CRAN into my laptop that already has ORE 1.4.1 installed. However it is running into infinite loop with the following error output:
Has anyone encountered this error before? Thanks!Which version(s) of R and tcl do you have installed on this system?
For example, in R:
R> version
platform x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
arch x86_64
os linux-gnu
system x86_64, linux-gnu
status
major 3
minor 1.1
year

nickname Sock it to Me
...and from the Linux shell:
[slamonic@slc05elz ~]$ rpm -qa tcl
tcl-8.4.13-6.el5
Did you have a previous version of R on the system where you are seeing the infinite loop of errors?

I moved from an old macbook to a new one. I have installed Office for Mac 2011. I copied all my files from my old notebook onto a hard drive. On trying to setup my mail, i went into my hard drive and accessed microsoft user identities, office 2011 and it shows the database but wont let me select it. Its almost as if the file is there but not accessable. I desperately need to access my old mail. How do I do this? I am fairly confident that I copied all files off my old notebook. Is there a way for me to search for the Database file? Maybe I copied it to a different location? Urgent help please.
Hello mafrerichs and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Simplest way is to use Target Disk mode:

and hook to another Mac and use CCC or SuperDuper and clone your HD to another drive.
You could also pull the drive out of your MBP and use an external USB case or SATA - USB dongle to hook it to another Mac.

Itunes 10.6.1.7 problem: when I change the file "media type" from 'Music' to 'Podcast' the file disapears from ITUNES. I do this via (1) right click, (2) select 'Get Info', (3) select 'options' tab, and (4) change media type. What is the problem?
Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

ITunes throws "SpectoGraph" could not load in 64-bit mode
After uphgrading to Lion starting iTunes throws "SpectoGraph" could not load in 64-bit mode.
Try selecting "Open in 32-bit mode" in the Finder's info window for iTunes.
Is there any change in Lion? I guess I have to open iTunes in 32-bit, but the question is why?Is SpectoGraph built into iTunes or a third-party add-on? If the latter you need to ask the developer about it.

ITunes 10.5 Ratings fields broken in smart playlists and in Get Info - Options tab
Installed 10.5 on Win XP and just discovered the Ratings fields are broken in both the Smart Playlist properties box and on the Options tab of the "Get Info" window. By "broken" I mean -- just blank, can't be edited. I can see and change the star ratings directly in the track list and by the right-click menu, but when I try to make edits the Info popup the field is blank (even if the track already has a rating) and can't be edited. Same behavior on Smart Playlists, on both new smart playlists as well as smart playlists I created before the upgrade. See screen shots...
Well, I guess "never mind"... the problem went away "on its own" - I suppose a reboot fixed it, but who knows.

classic 120gb stuck on disk mode and cant get it off and tried the reset ! before it went into disk mode it went it had red cross ?
i read on the internet that this is a harddrive fault?
please dont say it is!
also there seems to be loads of this same fault hapening to the exact same model!?
please help
ChazThat's super odd. It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive. I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread. He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

As stated in the header,
iCloud
Mail, Contacts, and Calenders
Software Update
all want to open in 32 bit mode. Then when System Preferences quits and relaunches IN 32 bit mode, I get a dialog box saying "You can't open (pick one) preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac." Moreover, Security and Privacy does the same thing only without the song and dance about quitting and reopening.
Whaaaaat???!!! I've never owned anything BUT an Intel Mac.
The "open in 32 bit mode" is not, and has never been checked in "Get Info"
I tried going to ~Library/Preferences and tossing all com.apple.system preferences files and rebooting. No joy.
It actually looks like some joker has included a bunch of PPC preference panes in my copy of MountainLion, except some of them are new to this OS.
My hardware is a mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro with4 gb of RAM, and a 500 gb hard drive, in three seperate partitions, running three Mac operating systems, one at a time. I have SnowLeopard in a small partition because I still have a few things that don't run in Lion/ML. Lion is still my main use machine in the largest partition, and when ML came out, I redistributed most of the unused space into a 3rd partition into which I did a clean install of ML in it's own partition so I could work through the growing pains without compromising my main computer. I'm glad I did it that way, but I DO want to get ML working properly, and I can't do that if I can't authorize third party software. Gatekeeper is currently in the way, and I can't get it to move.I dunno, that doesn't make any sense to me.
I just shut down and rebooted into the SnowLeopard partition and took a peek at the preference panes. There are only 3 that run in 32 bit only. They are all 3rd party, and none of the prefpanes are non Intel. Like I said, I have never owned a PPC machine. Anyhow, SnowLeopard doesn't even have an iCloud prefpane, or a combined mail, contacts, and calenders prefpane, and the ML security and privacy prefpane is all new as well. The software update prefpane is Intel and 64 bit in both SnowLeopard and Lion.
As to the triple boot, unless I'm totally mistaken, what I have here is, in essence, 3 seperate descrete computers in one box. All using the same hardware. but one at a time. I wouldn't know how to get more than one running at the same time, without using a virtual machine, even if I wanted to. (Which I don't) I do sometimes transfer files from one to another using the shared folder, but other than that, they do not interact. How could ML system preferences be trying to launch prefpanes from a totally different machine?
