BUG & WORKAROUND: iTunes 8 crashes on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008

With the UAC enabled, iTunes 8 will crash with the error below if the syncing device (i.e. iPod) is docked. If you "Run as Administrator" the error does not occur, but then you will run into random "Err = -5000" errors when downloading items (mostly podcasts):

I'm getting the same problem, except if I try to run as administrator then iTunes wants to erase all of my music on the iPod and set it to blank. I normally do not use the administrative account for anything other than administrative tasks.

Windows Vista and Windows 7 Only Boots to a black screen with a mouse cursor

Windows Vista and Windows 7 Only Boots to a black screen with a mouse cursor after I installed Mcafee Internet Security.
Hi I installed 1of 3 McAfee Internet Security protections on my HP laptop a few weeks ago with no issues. I Have a Dell XPS 420 desk top with Windows Vista operating
system, it’s never had any issues, until 2 nights ago I installed McAfee Internet Security (detected incompatible files and will remove) pc now only boots up to a black screen with a mouse cursor, it will show the windows logo and a hash symbol floating around
the screen. Now 2 weeks ago I installed the same program on my Dell all in one desk top with Windows 7, the same issue happen but that pc has no screen activity, I tried a back to factory reboot on this one, still black screen.

Hi,
Please install the compatible version of McAfee Internet Security:

if you have startup issue, you can boot into Safe Mode to uninstall the problematic software to go back into Windows.

Windows Mobile Device Center fails to open on Windows Vista and Windows 7 machines

Hello,
Our domain based machines cannot open Windows Mobile Device Center (Windows 7 and Windows Vista). You click the application and nothing happens. There are no errors in the Event Viewer that relate. In Task Manager I do NOt see any processes that look related
to Windows Mobile Device Center. Our Group Policy Objects are very lean and limited, and we do not have any policies that specify how Windows Mobile Device Center should behave. The only GPO that I could think would interfere with this is to prevent malware
and viruses, we have disabled Autoplay on removable devices.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!

I too am experiencing this issue, as well as an unrelated machine that is not on our domain that is having exactly the same problem.
Any thoughts?

Home Sharing between Windows Vista and Windows 8

I am trying to carry out Home Sharing between my old Windows Vista laptop and my new Windows 8 laptop. I have followed all the instructions and both have HS switched on. I can see my W8 library from my WV laptop but I cannot see my WV library from my W8 laptop.
An additional question is I do not have a Podcast button on my Windows 8 iTunes whereas it is on the Windows Vista iTunes.
Can anyone assist me in finding a resolution????

I have been having this exact issue the past 2 days, and I've tried everything within my knowledge, but to no avail. Both Home Sharing computers are on the same network, logged into Home Sharing with the same Apple account, and both computers are authorized for that account. I'm afraid this may just be an issue with the recent iTunes update. Before this recent version, the 2 computers I'm trying to share between did so just fine. Now, the connection is only working one way. I think this will just have to be resolved on Apple's part upon a new iTunes update. Hopefully. Another reason may be the difference in computer operating software (Windows Vista vs. Windows 8) and the inability to communicate between the two (This can happen since the older OS may not be capable of communicating with the newer OS, while the newer OS MAY be capable of communicating with older OS versions). Therefore, a new update would be required from Apple to fix this error. As for your issue in not seeing the Podcast button, try this:
If you have version 11.0.1:
1) Click the very upper left icon in the window.
2) Click "Preferences..." (Or hit keys [CTRL] + [,])
3) Click the tab labeled "General" on the window that pops up.
4) There should be a list of check boxes, each labeled a different component of iTunes. (Music, Movies, etc.)
5) Make sure the checkbox labeled "Podcasts" is checked.
6) Click the "OK" button in the bottom right of the window to save changes and close the window.
If you have an earlier version, follow the EXACT same process as above, except step 1 will be different:
1) Click "File in the upper left corner.
Hope this helps!

ICloud control panel is freezing under Windows Vista and Windows 7

I am running iCloud under my 2 windows PC's wich meet the iCloud system requirements. My iMac does not as it is a late 2006 21" model so I have to use the web site for it.
When I launch iCloud on both machines it seems to freeze the control panel but not the entire system.
this happens both at machine startup and if I launch it manually through the control panel itself too.

Windows Vista and Windows 8

I have a Windows Vista Full Installer disc and a Windows 7 Upgrade Disc. I am currently running a Mid-2012 MacBook Pro 13" with Mountain Lion, Boot Camp Version 5.
Can I install Windows Vista through Boot Camp, then upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8 when it's released?
Thanks.

Vista is not supported with Mountain Lion. You could try installing Windows 7 over itself. Some have reported success doing this.

Firefox version 3.5.16 will not start under Windows Vista and Windows 7 32bit

I have a Windows Vista computer that will not start any newer version of Firefox than 3.5.16. The process will run (as seen in the Task Manager) but do nothing.
I have since updated Windows to version 7 and the problem persists.
I have tried uninstalling Firefox and all Addons (flash-player, pdf-reader) and deleting all files (even user-specific ones).
Firefox can't be started in Profilemanger or safe-mode either.
Is there anything short of reinstalling windows I can try?

Solved it!
It was a dodgy version of Firebug (1.6.2) running, which would kill the disable/update process. It was killing something on the first run that would corrupt my Firefox.
How I fixed it:
* Download the latest Firefox
* Install Firefox 4 (as Standard) in-place upgrade
* Before finishing, un-tick the "Run Firefox Now" button
* Hit Finish
* Find Firefox in the Start Menu and hold Shift and click the executable (safe mode)
* Leave everything disabled
* You should now have a working Firefox!
Remove/update your add-ons as needed. I only had to upgrade Firebug in safe mode to get it working.
Odd how the check for updates completely broke this Firefox, wonder what was so bad about Firebug.
Hope this helps at least one other person! The "Run in Safe Mode" option is so hard to discover now when your browser is broken!

Windows Vista and Windows 7 random WSAECONNRESET

Good day, we have this serious problems with every single pc with Vista or 7 (no problems at all with XP): if the user stops working on the SAPGUI for a few seconds, the client crashes with this error...
ALP: connection to partner '217.172.30.1:3299' broken
WSAECONNRESET: Connection reset by peer

It seems like some sort of timeout or keepalive related problem, and it occurs only on computers with Vista or 7 (actually EVERY computer with Vista or 7).
I already disabled windows firewall, the antivirus, UAC, and modified the registry as per OSS Notes 26086, 155147 and 413330. I tried both with 7.10 and 7.20 versions of the GUI, with latest patch levels. I tried with fixed and dynamic IPs. But nothing seems to work... I'm going mad... any ideas?

Hello,

We have two computers in the office, and i am usually on our dell comp, while my bf uses the touchsmart. We just came home to find that our computer had shut itself off on its own. upon starting it, the computer would only get as far as showing the HP screen (a blue screen with a hand and objects flowing from the hand) and the four menu options { F10: setup" esc: boot menu' F11 system recovery F9 :diagnostics}. At the bottom right side of the screen it also says v 5.10. Now, when we have pressed any of the options, the computer does nothing. It would appear that perhaps the computer can not tell windows 7 to boot or something. Unfortunately we do not have the install disc either... Any thoughts?
Seems like it's stuck at the POST Screen, and nothing's responding.
I suggest removing all the USB and peripherals plugged into the PC and leave only the power and the USB keyboard receiver- nothing else.
Then try turning on the computer, if it doesn't work, I don't think there's any fix except to keep trying.
If you can get in, i suggest making a backup as soon as you can.
After that, if it still does it, then call HP at 1-866-408-5408 or chat with them at : http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/contact/chat_1.html
I have more HP devices than you'd expect.
1 HP TouchPad 32 GB with Android
2 HP Touchsmarts (310-1000z and IQ527)
2 HP Printers (J6480 and J5750)
1 Laptop (HP DV6253CL)
Have at least some experience in each of those devices, and i'll do my best to help you.

Bluetooth Peripheral Device driver failure in Windows Vista and Windows 7 (solved)

I had problems setting up Bluetooth HotSync. Following the directions for pairing the device resulted in a "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" missing driver in Device Manager. I finally figured out how to setup HotSync and am able to sync over Bluetooth to Windows 7 64-bit.
On the PC
Right-click on the Bluetooth icon and select Show Bluetooth Devices
Delete the Palm Phone
Right-click on the Bluetooth icon again and select Bluetooth settings
Turn Discovery on for the PC
On the Palm Device
Select Bluetooth
Turn Bluetooth On
Set Visibility to Hidden (if desired)
Select Setup Devices on the Bluetooth screen
Select HotSync Setup
Click Next
Select your PC
This is the important part: Click Next 3 times (don't do what the screens tell you -- just click Next, Next, Next)
Click Launch HotSync
Viola!
On the PC
Right-click on the Bluetooth icon again and select Bluetooth settings
Turn Discovery off for the PC (if desired)

I am having the same problem with a new RocketFish Bluetooth adapter. I did NOT have this problem when I was using a Kensington USB Bluetooth adapter. One big difference that I notice between the two adapters is that the Kensington adapter came with an updated version of the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack software which contained its own DUN drivers. However, the new RocketFish Bluetooth 2.0 EDR USB adapter does not seem to work with the Toshibal BT Stack.
Maybe this helps. Maybe it doesn't. Either way, I don't care. It's how I roll. I'm a smart ass.
I will check back for any additions to this thread. I hope we can figure it out! I will also post more Prose of Indifference.

TS1717 I have been running Itunes on windows vista and recently loaded Itunes on my Lap top which runs on Windows 7. When I try to play my music the Lap top only play sample music. Any suggestions?

I have a desk top which has Windows Vista. On this computer I have been running Itunes for a long time. My new computer is a Lap top and it runs Windows 7.
I recently loaded Itune on the new computer. I attemted to use Easy Transfer to transfer my Music but was unable to connected the two computers so I transferred my music to a external hard drive and loaded the music on the new computer. I have the folders and files carefully and they appear to match. When I try to run Itunes on the new computer I am unable to access the new music. Itune always goes to the sample music. The only difference I can come up with is Windows Vista and Windows 7. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi,
Are you trying to use the Help -> Updates method?
Both those patches need to be manually applied to PSE 9.
