ITunes won't run on W7 - The colour scheme has been changed

I have been installing and uninstalling iTunes for sometime now and have even tried to change the theme but I keep getting the same message.
I've gone back 14 pages on this part of the forum and haven't come across a similar thread so apologies if anyone has already asked and if you can point me in the correct direction.
I have an iPod and iPhone that need to be updated as I've had this problem for around 6 months now since getting a new laptop.
The hardware is a Packard Bell 64bit running Windows7

Hi everyone,
I have almost the same problem meaning the color scheme in W7 has changed when ..... in my case, safari starts.... it seems that is one effect from many causes, well I dug a bit arround and came across the folowing :
Why are some visual elements being automatically turned off?
If you receive a message that some visual elements, such as window frame transparency, have been turned off, or if you receive a message that the theme has been changed to the Basic theme, one of the following might have happened:
A program that you're running is incompatible with Aero themes. When this happens, some visual elements are automatically turned off. When the program is no longer running, the visual elements that were turned off are turned on again automatically.
Your laptop might be running low on battery power. Windows might turn off Aero themes or window transparency to save battery power.
Your computer's hardware configuration or screen resolution was changed. If you changed your screen resolution, video card, or monitor setup, your computer might no longer meet the minimum recommendations for running Aero themes.
Your computer doesn't have enough memory to run all of the programs that you have open and also run an Aero theme. If Windows automatically changed your theme to the Basic theme, and you want to change it back to an Aero theme, close some windows to free up memory, and then follow the steps below.
To use an Aero theme
If the troubleshooter doesn't fix the problem, try changing the theme back to an Aero theme.
Click to open Personalization.
Under Aero Themes, click a theme to apply it to your desktop.
To run the Aero troubleshooter
To try to get visual elements like transparency running again, use the Aero troubleshooter, which can find and fix problems automatically.
Click to open the Aero troubleshooter. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
To learn more about the Windows 7 desktop features that use Aero elements, see What is the Aero desktop experience?
I had run the Aero troubleshhoter and got the problem, not sure if will  saty like this, but the result of the scan says: Desktop Window manager is disabled, which was fixed by the troubleshooter, I have no ideea if this DWM will stay as fixed, next time I start Safari or not, but give it a try.
Hope this might solve it

  • Can you track a form if the file name has been changed after distribution?

    I created a form in Adobe Acrobat X Pro -- I then used the distribute feature and sent the form to myself using the internal server. After testing the form, and making sure all was good, I copied the attachment from the email I received when I distributed the form to myself, and sent it to my boss (via outlook). He then changed the file name, and sent the form out to our members. Our members are completing this newly-changed document instead of the original form. They are able to "Submit The Form", and it still looks as though its coming back to me via the dialogue box. However, I have no received any responses in my original document's tracking. When I tried submitting this new form myself to see what happened, I just received an message that says "Your response is being queued for submission", but it never tells you whether the form was actually submitted or not. Is there any way that you can track this form even though the file name has been changed? And if people are submitting their forms to me, where are they going?
    Please help!
    thanks,
    desiree

    I understand that you don't want to redo all the linking with the markers. You can try following (make a copy of your project first to be safe) :
    - close your project and quit DVDSP
    - move your old asset, and replace it with the new one
    - reopen your project
    A warning message should tell you that this asset has changed, but your marker will remain at old position. If the asset length are not the same, old length information will be used by DVDSP. To correct this, delete the asset from the timeline, and drop it back to the timeline.
    Now you just have to move the marker to the right position.

  • ITunes won't run after downloading the exe

    I downloaded the iTunes exe and tried to run it but it gives me Visual C++ buffer error. I have also tried to uninstall quicktime and install it again but it gives me a fatal error during the uninstallation process from "Add/Remove programs" option. It also gives me 0000b7a4 Offset Error when i try to run the iTunes. I have just bought a 5th Generation Video iPod and want to use iTunes to upload some songs on the iPod. What should I do? I have done all the things possible to run iTunes and uninstall quicktime but it doesnt seem to work. Please help!

    Did you see this help article from Apple?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304405
    If you have to uninstall and reinstall, you may also need to run the Windows Uninstaller Cleanup Utility. You can find that here:

  • ITunes won't run even in the safe mode

    Installed the latest iTunes. It freezes all the time and when closed won't start up again even though it eats up the memory. Itried running it in safe mode and other tips but nothing is working. It now stopped working even in the safe mode. Any kind of solution available?

    Using system restore can create problems as well as solving them. I have seen system restore destroy a Firefox setup. The installation may be OK but to be sure perform a clean install
    # [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox Uninstall Firefox]
    # Delete the Firefox [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory Installation directory], default location C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
    # Download the latest version from http://www.mozilla.com/ and install it
    If Firefox still does not start, try creating a new profile folder. Firefox stores user data in a profile folder, creating a new profile will show if the problem is with the old profile. For how to do that see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows creating a new Firefox profile on Windows].
    If the new profile works, you can copy selected data such as bookmarks and passwords to the new profile. For details see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox transferring data to a new profile]. Do not copy the preferences file, and it is best to re-install any add-ons.

    Hi Phoenix,
    When I moved to Numbers 3, I found that my Numbers 2 templates were still in File > New from Template Chooser > My Templates with the original row height intact
    And my default (Small w Header Row and Column) template opens with the "old" row height.

  • The Apple ID has been changed on my iPad but the apps won't update with the new id and password, including the apps that came with the iPad so I can't delete and reinstall with new Apple ID

      What do you do if you have bought a used iPad and the apps won't update without the original id and password.  Can't delete the apps that come with the iPad and reinstall them so what do I do?

    Correct. An app can only be updated under the Apple ID that was used to orginally acquire the app. If that is a problem you can delete the app and download again under the new userid. If you paid for the app you will have to pay again. Your old Apple ID does not go away so there is no reason to not use it to download the apps.
    You cannot delete the apps that came with IOS. If you want to "hide" the apps simply put the apps into an application folder by dragging one app onto another. You can do this to all the IOS apps.

  • Has anyone had a photo syncing problem sine the last iOS or iTunes update wher the sort order has been changed back to date order, when before the update you photos were synced in file name order??

    Syncing from pc to iPhoto imbedded in iPad... I spent hundreds of hours naming jpeg files/pics, and they were ordered properly ((per my naming, like 0001 bla bla.jpeg, 0002 blah blah.jpeg, etc.... They were syncing perfectly in order, until last SW update... Now, still in right order on pc, but last sync scrambled them all back to date order on iPad after sync... Any ideas?

    Thanks for your response. I thought there was something I wasn't doing right or something I was missing.
    Aperture and Mobileme syncing is really "hit or miss", unpredictable. Especially after a manual arrangement of the order of photos within an album. And selection of the "key photo" is also hit or miss. Sometimes it sticks. Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it sticks for a bit and then reverts back to the 1st photo of the album.
    It's ironic that one of Apple's motto is "it just works"! In this case, it really doesn't work!

  • I tried to update firefox, then the update crashed. I cannot open firefox any more because the "firefox.exe" has been "changed or removed". How do I fix this?

    I was trying to update firefox to open a pdf file from a website that said on the top of the page that my plugins are out of date.

    Hi,
    Run an antivirus program first. It's very possible you just got stung.
    If that didn't fix it, reinstall firefox.
    Hope that helps.

  • Delete BDE after the C drive has been changed to Dynamic

    I've been trying to expand my C drive on a 2008R2 VM, but the BDE volume was in the way.  In reading a different thread I took the advice to convert the disk to dynamic, before realizing that I should have just run the bcdboot c:\windows
    /s c: command to delete it.  So now my C drive and my BDE drive are both dynamic discs, and it wont let me delete the BDE Drive.

    Hi,
    After running the bcdboot c:\windows /s c:, you should reboot, and go back to Disk Management, right click on Drive C and choose it as the Active volume.
    It is not needed to convert to dynamic disk.
    Here is a thread which same requirement:

  • The apple id associated with my itunes is no longer good because that email address has been deleted what do i do to update the info

    the apple ID that is associated with my itunes is no longer valid because the email address has been deleted,how can i update my info without my old email and password?

    how is what blocked?  the email address? or apple ID... As for the ID, its not bocked but when i entre the password it says... " Your Apple ID has been diabled for security reasons. to enable your account, reset your password on appleid.apple.com" which i did, after i have entred the apple ID, it gives me two options to either change my password by sending it to my email acccount used, first time i clicked use email to reset pasword. i then went to msn to long into that email and msn says that this account has been blocked due to the password being entred to many times to activsate this clcik link beloew and so i did, it then took me the security queastion and the alternative email used within that account is completly different to what put in when i first made that account 2 years ago, the security question to that email is in portugues/ spanish and im neither, so clarely someone has hacked into that email and blocked it... and this why i cant change the password for my apple ID..

  • Facebook is my home page on Mozilla; everytime I go to log in, my browser has been changed to proxy. I have to change this every time in order to get face book to load; how do I stop the browser from changing to proxy?

    My internet option state "do not use a proxy" but each time I go to long in on Firefox to Facebook, the proxy server has been changed to showing proxy and I can not get on to facebook until I go in and change it back to Do Not use Proxy. The problem is the setting does not stay but every time I go back to long on it's back to proxy server? How do I get it to not change???

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa
