Baffled: Win7 64bit, iTunes 9.0.2 64 bit, iTunes won't display

This is a less than 2 week old install of Windows 7 64 bit (so it's not had a chance to collect much cruft yet), running Microsoft Essentials for security. Got a new iPod Touch 8 gb for Christmas, so it's off to do the iTunes thing for the first time. 64 bit iTunes downloaded and installed flawlessly - but iTunes will not come up. I can see it and iTuneshelper running in processes (they show as 32 bit apps?), and the iPod itself is recognized when I plug it in - but no application window ever comes up. I've deinstalled and reinstalled, even followed all the steps in the KB for complete deinstallation and reinstallation, rebooted with everything except iTunes/Quicktime enabled, tried a second windows account, etc., etc. No luck. No errors in the Windows app event log of any kind. Any ideas anyone on what the problem could be?

Nope, this copy of Windows 7 was installed from scratch on a freshly formatted disk but three weeks ago and has never seen Norton or McAfee. It does have MS Security Essentials on it. Oddly enough, the XP that is able to run iTunes is extremely old (at least two motherboard upgrades ago, in fact - almost 9 years) and has seen Norton and McAfee installed/deinstalled thru the years, getting whatever product was free that year when I bought TurboTax , and is currently running McAfee.
I whacked at the problem again over the weekend, this time disabling absolutely everything at startup/login, including the Creative XFi helper apps, MS Essentials, and the ATI video helper apps - only MS standard startup processes - yeah, still no help.
At next reboot I started iTunes and walked away. Some indeterminate time later (at least an hour), iTunes finally came up. That seems to be the behavior now (and may always have been, but I have little patience for software too stupid to at least have an error log) - launch it and it finally appears a long, long time later.
Makes it pretty much useless. Good thing the wife loves her new iPod Touch and it can download wirelessly from the store, otherwise I wouldn't be working this hard .

You transfer the purchases to the computer you use to sync the iPhone. You can use a thumb drive or an external HD, etc. Read this: iTunes for Mac - How to copy purchases between computers: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1373

Itunes won't display my episode descriptions

Hey,
I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm pretty new at this. I just submitted my first podcast to itunes and the listing won't display me episode descriptions. Would someone be so kind as to check my RSS file?
The URL of the RSS file is
www.indigoimp.com/poweredbysatan/pbscomedypodcast.xml
The itunes listing is
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=123048064&s=143 441
and the line that may be giving me trouble (but which looks ok to me) is..
<itunes:summary>All a man really needs in life is sex, beef, sleep, and a big stick to wack things with. In this epsiode the artist explains why beautiiful women must bring beef. Episode includes his beloved song "You Must Give Me Beef"</itunes:summary>
Thanks in advance!

Chemholio, welcome to the discussions!
Your <itunes:summary> tag looks fine, and if it's in the <channel> tag, will appear as the podcast description.
If it's in the <item> tag, it will display when someone clicks the circled "i". That's where you have it.
If you want it to appear under the "Description" column for episodes, then you must use the <itunes:subtitle> tag.

My iTunes won't display the artwork

My iTunes on a jukebox setting won't display the artwork. It currently has an error message of "iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer".
It was working fine the other day. I have updated it version when I received the error message but still nothing.
However when i select the middle view option, it shows the artwork.
Please help. The black screen is annoying!

....it's my cover flow view that is not working!!!!!!

ITunes Won't Display (or Play) my Music

I just booted up iTunes on a brand new MacBook running Yosemite 10.10, with iTunes 12.0.0.140.
When I change the "Advanced" Preferences to point to the folder on my external drive, it has no effect whatsoever - Apple iTunes does not display my playlists and is apparently unable to find my music and media. Clicking the annoying "Scan for Media" button also does nothing (and gives no reason as to WHY it does nothing - excellence in software design. LOL!)
I have tried quitting iTunes and restarting. I have also tried rebooting the laptop (which is absurd, but one thread said this was necessary? Wow...)
What the is the deal with this? What "magic secret sauce" do I need to apply to get iTunes to work? This is a major P.I.T.A.
- da

hi - I can't log into my old ID because the email account does not exist (why I changed my apple ID to begin with). I sent an email to Apple and they responded with basically the same advice - asking for my old ID information. I have only one ACCOUNT but two (old and new) ID's that I have purchased music under. However, when Itunes asks me to authorize my music, it will not play the songs after I have authorized them using both IDs (ie changing back to the old id name does nothing). Some of the songs that won't play were bought using both ID names - in other words, I can only play what was bought really recently, not just what was bought with the new ID.
also - the songs that will not play do not appear under my "purchase history" for my account.
Sorry if this does not make sense. I would really like to be able to play the 100+ songs that I have purchased in the past and can no longer access!
Thanks

ITunes not starting (Win7 64bit) (iTunes 10.3.1 and iTunes 10.6)

I use to have iTunes 10.3.1, then I uninstalled it and now I tried to get it back but when I installed it again and now it won't open. No error message, NOTHING. I went to TaskManager and iTunes, I will watch under Processes and it will just cut off for NO reason.
I tried, before it cut off, setting the Priority to 'Realtime' but that didn't work, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that didn't work either! Now under Programs to uninstall iTunes isn't even on the list, so I can't unistall and reinstall because it won't let me unistall

[win7 64bit ultimate]: HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus prints won't scan

Guys I have spent 2 days on reading and trying all of the suggestions in previous posts. My HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus JUST won't scan. When I click to scan a Document or Photo the HP Scan pops up saying: The HP Officejet Pro 8600 was not found.
When I do unistall the HP basic software and then install again it works fine. However when pc restarts problem is still there.
I have completely uninstalled my avast Antivirus and also configured the windows firewall. No luck till now.
Tried the HP Print and Scan Doctor: It appears that the problem is in the device manager. Edited: Just looked at the device manager and spotted this >
If I reinstall it will work only till my next restart.
Any suggestions?

@N3CR4, welcome to the forums
I read about how you cannot scan and have been troubleshooting quite a bit lately, to no avail.
I have some questions and some ideas for you. If you've tried the steps, just let me know the results. Here are my ideas for you.
Have you uninstalled the printer by right clicking on them in the Device Manager, as shown in your screen shot, then restarted your PC and reinstalled?
Have you tried creating another User Account with Admin privileges and tried installing?
Try a clean boot, and restart the PC and ensure your Firewalls and Anti-Virus scanners are disabled and try running the installation.
Will the printer install successfully on another PC?
Remove the printer by using the Microsoft Fix it tool, restart the PC and try installing again.
Try unregistering and re-registering the Microsoft Windows Installer service:
1. Click the Start menu and type " cmd " in the search field and press enter.
2. Type in " msiexec /unregister " and then press enter.
3. Type in " msiexec /regserver " and then press enter.
4. Restart your PC and try the installation.
Run the SFC scan to repair any corupt files. (Run the scan 3 times if there is an issue in the results) then try installing the printer again.
Using System File Checker to Restore System Files
I really hope the steps help, let me know the outcome

Itunes won't display Asian Characters (Korean, Japanese, and Chinese)

For some reason, with the most recent update to iTunes, my library is no longer properly displaying Korean characters. It is instead replacing them with boxes. It was and has worked fine for the longest time and I haven't made any other changes that would affect the language packs with my windows 7 64bit. However, when I play a song in iTunes and I have MSN Messenger running, the messenger will correctly display the current song I'm listening. I'm just hoping that if I sync my iPhone with my library, these characters will not appear as squares there as well. I've seen suggestions for switching my operating system language setting to Korean, but as I'm not completely fluent I'd hate to get stuck not knowing how to navigate my way around because I can't read/understand something. Can someone please find a solution for this.

I didn't have the problem of showing boxes, but I had a similar problem of the korean characters showing in symbols. To fix, I (1) right clicked on the song. (2) Chose Convert ID3 Tags. (3) Checked "Reverse Unicode" Box, then hit "OK". You can highlight as many songs as you want at once and still perform the same thing, to save you time.
Hope this helps you.

Win Vista -, iTunes won't display my iPhone

I've turned off firewall, WinPatrol and my antivirus - I can see the iPhone in My Computer... but the sync and backup buttons are greyed out in iTunes. I can see it with no problem in the other computers. I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes - PS iTunes will not seee my iPhone 4S or 5S - I'm puzzled

Solved -
By going to R/Click MyComputer > Manage > Devices > System Devices and 'check for hardware etc.. (If iPhone is pluggged in it should appear here... PS it won't show if it isn't plugged in)
All okay now

Itunes won't display my library

I just upgraded to Itunes 11, and have noticed a huge isue. My library is now gone. When I click the "Artists" page, it says I can Go to the iTunes store, or Scan for Music. When I click Scan for music, it says it is adding files, which I know are song names because I know the songs, then it gets the album artwork, finishes, and I am right back where I started. I can search for my music in the search bar, and it will pop up, but it will not play. Not sure what to do here.
Thanks

K so here is another good one. If I go to the "Playlists" section, and look at recently added, all my music shows up. But if I click back onto songs, albums, artists, it all dissapears again. So Itunes knows that it is in there, it just refuses to show it to me under anything other then Recently Added.

ITunes won't display

I have a Sony Vaio with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS. When I start iTunes, the program launches, shows in Processes as iTunes*32.exe - then the program will not display. This is new problem since iTunes 10, I believe, but am not 100% positive.
Anyone else having this problem?

ITunes won't display ipod contents

I manage my ipod manually. I have upgraded to iTunes version 7.6.0.29. I can add music to my ipod, but I can't figure out how to get iTunes to display the music that is on my ipod so that I can delete some of it. How can I see a list of what is on the ipod in iTunes?

It could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
See: Some songs don't show under artist on my iPod.
Once you add a second album name for that artist even for a single song, ALL the rest of the songs should now show up under that artist, even those without album names.
PS.
There really is no need to ask the same question in 5 different forums.

Itunes won't display cover art correctly

When I view my music in the album list, the cover art for songs will show up very sporadically, despite displaying fine in the grid and cover flow formats. They also show up when I select "Get Info" as part of the information and in the cover section. The cover art is also tied to the music file itself.
Is there any way to fix this? Album list is my preferred way to view my music, but the lack of cover art is annoying. Plus, I don't want to sync my ipod until it's fixed because I don't want to lose the cover art stored there.
I have iTunes 10.0.1.22, but I was having the problem in earlier versions as well.

Try itunes menu > view > Always Show Artwork when you're in album list view.
The default is off, which saves screen real estate when there's a bunch of singles.
