Am installing itunes on new computer and having problems.

am intalling itunes on a new computer, windows, pc. Installed 64 bit more than once. Icon is on desktop but can not get to open. Won't go past accepting agreement. checked properties to be sure compatability in on windows 7. can anyone help?

You son is halfway right - you can only auto sync an ipod to one PC. That's how most folks use their ipods, I think.
Does the ipod show up in Windows Explorer?

Installed iTunes into New Computer and it doesnt function

hey I was wondering if anyone could help me:
I recently purchased a new computer and when I installed iTunes+Quicktime onto the computer, the program doesn't want to open up.
When I click on it, I see the hourglass cursor, then it goes away.
Is it possibly because I also have a program called iPod Access which helps ne to backtrack the songs?
I have tried uninstalling and installing it...no help.
Please advise me as to what is wrong! Thanks very much.

Yes, it's possible this is screwing up iTunes.
What does "backtrack the songs" mean?

Installed Itunes on new computer and transferring songs to playlist is extremely slow

New computer purchased, running Windows 7, and after installing Itunes it takes forever to transfer music to playlists. It takes about 1-2 minutes to tranfer the song to the playlist.
I downloaded Itunes the first time and lost the dialog box to finish installing so I downloaded again and installed. Music is on an external hard drive connected via an USB port.
What can I do to speed up the transfer process?
Thanks

I just installed itunes on new computer and songs disappeared from Ipod

I just reinstalled itunes on a computer that had a bug and was cleaned up and cleared out. When I reinstalled itunes and it sync'd all my songs disappeared from my ipod. how do I get them back

That is correct.
You should use your backup copy of your computer to put everything abck on the coputer, then you would sync them to your ipod.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer, njot good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Oddly enough, the music app with Windows 8 can see the playlists, but not iTunes.

Unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8

unable to install itunes for new computer with windows 8
states this app unable to run on this PC

Hello jgrn76,
It sounds like you are getting an error stating that the iTunes installer cannot be run on your computer. I would try downloading the 64 bit version of iTunes from here:
iTunes 11.1.3 for Windows (64-bit)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
If issues persist when trying to install it, I would try running through the steps in the article named:

Otherwise, would you mind elaborating a bit on what the error message says, word for word?

Upgrading computer, do I install itunes on new computer? How does my content on old computer get to my new computer?

I am upgrading to a new HP ProBook 6470b computer w/ Windows 7, do I install itunes on new computer or somehow transfer the files from the old Dell D620 Windows XP computer ? How does my content on old computer get to my new computer? Would like to find the best way to do this. Thanks!

Yes. You should copy everything ( music, apps, pcis, docs, contacts, calendars, etc) from your old computer to your new one.
You can type "move itunes library" into the google search bar for instructions on itunes.
Certainly your computers have a methed for moving all of your content from one comptuer to another.

I want to be able to sync my iPhone 5 to my new iTunes library (new computer) and erase old music. When I connect my iPhone I have no option to "erase and sync."

So I have the iPhone 5. My old computer crashed so I ended up purchasing a new computer and re-installing and downloading all my old music and new music.
When I connect my iPhone to my new computer I can sync music but the old music still remains on my iPhone as well as the new music.
There's a lot on the phone that I don't want anymore but I can't seem to figure out how to erase it.
I don't want to restore the iPhone so I don't lose all my old messages and so forth.
I have all of the latest updates for the iPhone and well as iTunes.
If anyone has any answers to help that would be awesome!
Thanks.

Hey there,
It sounds like you are not getting the prompt to erase and sync your device. This indicates to me that Manual Syncing was enabled on the original iTunes Library, and becuase of that it is also now enabled on your new computer.
This is changable in the Summary tab of iTunes when you have your device selected, and this article will help you do that:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
Configure iPhone, iPad, or iPod for manual management
To manually manage the content, follow these instructions:
Connect the device to your computer.
Open iTunes.
Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. If your device isn't visible in the upper right corner of the screen, choose Library.
Click the Summary tab and select "Manually manage music and videos."
Click Apply.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Installed Itunes on new computer now I cant synch

Ok -
So I got a new computer and installed Itunes on it. I hooked up my existing ipod and I get a message saying my ipod is synced to another I tunes library. It says it can only be synced to one library at at time. I don't have the old computer anymore. How can I sync my ipod to the new itunes without deleting everything and starting over? There are thousands of songs on my ipod and I dont want to start over. Am i doomed? Help please.
Becky

OMG... DONT LISTEN TO THAT OTHER PERSON...i had the same problem...when your ipod connects, open it as a drive(it asks "how do you want to open this? type of question) , and drag and drop anything that looks like files...and did you look to the right when it connected? it says "transfer purchases" most people think, "cancel" but i looked, and i didnt have many "purchases" but it sync'd anyways...not everything like pictures, but my movies transferred over, and most of my songs...once itunes opens, under files, it has an option to "add file to library" or other options...try 'em all to save your stuff!!!!
im not a computer head, i just thought it would help you like it helped me...

Installing iTunes to New Computer

Some time ago I moved all my iTunes information to an external hard drive. I recently got a new computer and want to install iTunes on the new computer but be able to view and access the media that's on the iTunes on my external hard drive. I tried installing iTunes to the hard drive's location, but when I open iTunes on the new computer none of the saved media is there. Any suggestions?

I bit the bullet and downloaded a fresh install download from apple.com since the updater would no longer work.
Still a mystery as to why the updater was no longer working.
Kept the original installed iTunes where it was and sent the new install to its same folder location.
First couple of attempts failed to download but I persisted and the third attempt it downloaded.
After the download, I went into the iTunes folder, clicked on the setup icon and the install was made complete.
Fortunately as diesel pointed out, all of my settings and media remained intact.
Thanks to diesel vdub for providing a little assurance, and now all is back to normal and up to date once again.

Am installing itunes on new computer and having problems.
