Check disk utility error message----itunes.exe- Corrpt File

Isn't this a MAC error message not sure why i'm recieving this message. This happen when I attempt to move music from the library to ipod....Please help

Are you saying that you have songs on your iPod that are not in iTunes? If you have been relying on iPod as the sole backup for your music, I think you now understand why it's important to backup your library in some fashion, such as burning data CD/DVD's. When you have to restore your iPod because of an iPod problem, your music is gone.
You can use the following instructions from MacMuse to move the contents of your iPod back into iTunes.

Once you are backup & running, PLEASE BACKUP YOUR FILES!

  • Updated itunes and getting errors messages: iTunes.exe-Entry Point Not Found

    After updating itunes, I get the message iTunes.exe-Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point AVCFPlayerEnableHardwareAcceleratedVideoDecoderKey could not be located in the dynamic library AVFoundationCF.dll.
    Then another error message tells me: iTunes not installed correctly. Please reinstall.  Error 7 (Windows error 127). I've tried to repair which looks successful until I try the desktop shortcut as well as going into the exe file in program files. Still the same message.  Operating a windows XP service pack 3 with 32 bit. Help would be most appreciated.--No problems with itunes until this recent update.

    iTunes.exe-Entry Point Not Found. The procedure entry point AVCFPlayerEnableHardwareAcceleratedVideoDecoderKey could not be located in the dynamic library AVFoundationCF.dll.
    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

  • Error 344:  itunes.exe - corrupt file

    New ipod30, error message 344, itunes.exe-corrupt file, plus "file or directory \ipod_control\music corrupt or unreadable. Please run chkdsk".
    Is this telling me to chkdsk/defragment my ipod? Defragging my hard drive didn't fix it.

    Yes, you need to run chkdsk on the drive letter
    allocated to the iPod and you need to use the /F
    switch, for example:
    chkdsk <iPod drive letter>: /F
    Hope that helps.
    Hi Bill,
    I am having the same problem with my nano,(after updating iTUNES), how do I run the chkdsk? Is it in the itunes window or where? I have already done the 5 Rs & d/l an iPOD update from apple but none of this worked, I still get a file corrupt error when I connect the iPOD, Thanks. Would you mind sending your reply to [email protected] ? thanks. Kay

    Help! This is a brand new MacBookPro, I've only had it a couple of days!

    So far I have never had any problems with them personally so I don't do an Erase & Install.
    I'm sure we're all happy for you although problems do happen. Problems with the installation and even hardware problems. Thing is, often these issues aren't apparent until some time later.
    The way I see it, the time and effort required to do an "Erase and Install" (which include a zero write to the drive) is a known… about 3 hours. To my mind, even there's a remote chance that this stops a potential problem in its tracks before it's a problem it's worth the time spent. 3 hours over the lifetime of a Mac OS X installation is not a lot to give up.
    Additionally, by zero writing to a drive, it does allow you to see if your drive is on one way performing correctly. All four of my 300GB drives in my Mac Pro wrote zeros within one minute of each other. I know these drives won't have issues when being told to write a ton of data. Whithout doing this I would never know.
    Now I did the same thing with my parents' 750GB drives and one finished in 3 hours and the other was still going at 5 hours. Now you can't tell me there's not something up there. So at what point would you like to have found that out?
    How much time, let alone money, does it cost to do something later on?
    Just like tools like Monolingual. How many issues with updates are caused by such tools? Again, how much time is lost to debug and maybe fix such issues? Thing is, we don't know although if you had a customised installation from the outset it wouldn't matter as you wouldn't be using such tools.
    But hey… everyone's got their own opinion. All I know is that my systems always seem to go better and faster than every other Mac owners I know.

  • Disk utility error message

    My daughter told me her Mac mini isn't booting up past the grey screen. I put in the install disk and started it up pressing "C" and used Disk Utility to attempt to figure out what's up. I got the following error message:
    Could not repair due to underlying task failure on exit (-9972)
    Does this mean the hard drive is toast? I don't have any HD repair software-with all my Macs I've never run across a problem that the boards here or Disk Utility couldn't fix for me. I don't know if she damaged the drive (she claims the cat chewed on the edge of the mini-sounds a bit like the "dog ate the homework"), or if it failed. It was purchased last year when Tiger was released, so it should still be under warranty. Any ideas about what I could try next?
    Thanks

    Dale, although the -9972 error is probably some serious data error on the drive, which can sometimes be solved by an Erase & Install of Mac OS X, the fact that the Hardware Test reports an issue probably means that the data error was caused by physical damage on the drive.
    I have to say that I find your post(s) most unhelpful. It' true that the informatin contained in them can be useful, however, you could have made the effort to sort it for iMargB. The fact that you didn't, plus your posting of the exact same post in two different threads, makes me feel that you are in a hurry, and that you sacrifice quality to quantity. Trying to help as many people as possible is a good thing, however, we are here to help (or to be helped), not to overwhelm people with information, hoping that they will figure it all out on their own.
    iMargB, the Hardware Test is not part of Mac OS X, it is a system-specific volume, which explains why it is included on your original disc rather than on the Tiger one. Your guess of using the latest OS's Install disc was a good one though, when it comes to using Disk Utility for example : attempting to repair a Tiger installation with a Panther disc is not a good idea, as it might damage it instead, because of the differences between Panther and Tiger.
    Although I know little about the Hardware Test's error messages, the "Master" part is not what would worry me, as it could just be the position of your hard drive's jumper (which could be Master, Slave, or Cable Select). However, if the Mass Storage test is failing, I would suspect a hardware issue with the drive itself. Hardware Test is known to miss a few things sometimes, but the reverse isn't true. Thus if it reports a bad drive, I think it is safer to assume that there is an issue than to assume that Hardware Test is wrong. Moreover, the "Invalid Node Structure" is very likely due to physical damage (as I already said), therefore, zeroing out all data and reisntalling Mac OS X or using Disk Warrior could be very temporary fixes.
    If you have a FireWire cable, I would suggest booting your Mini in FireWire Target Disk Mode to retrieve as much data as you can, with another Mac such as your iMac or iBook. Instructions can be found here. There may still be a chance that the other Mac could see the drive, so not all your data would be lost. Then, I would take it to Apple for repair, as the drive could be failing.

  • Disk Utility Error Message-Bootable USB/ExternalHD

    I'm using Disk Utility at the moment to create a bootable USB/External HD ( I've tried both ) and nothing is working. It comes up with a error message. I have the retail Snow Leopard DMG and i'm doing everything correct user wise. It's just something is wrong with Disk Utility in my opinion..
    Error message (60) restore failure.
    So now my question is.. I's there a alternative for creating a bootable usb/external harddrive. CCC only allows for the copying of your Macintosh but I want to create a bootable drive. Please someone help fast.

    Hello, have you used Disk Utility to Repair the External Drive?
    Might try Carbon Copy Cloner...

  • Disk Utility Error Message - Missing EFI + MediaKit

    Previously setup was with 2 partitions, one for normal use while the other had the Lion Install ESD on it, used when I installed some time ago. The other day my machine suddenly shutdown and when I started it, it stated that the Lion Install ESD partition was corrupted.
    I created a new Lion Install ESD partition and made a clean install (I was going to do so anyway).
    My machine is booting fine, but it acts funny in the Disk Utility. First, an overview of my disk:
    However if I attempts to "Verify Disk" on my disk (not on a specific partition) via the Disk Utility the following error is shown:
    Even more strange is when I attempt to let the "Macintosh HD" use maximum space on the disk. It is currently sized at 230GB, but if I use the Disk Utility to increase it to say 231GB it reports the following error:
    However, the space is clearly unused. And if I simply drag the partition down to use all the space the error will not prompt but nothing will happen.
    In the time between my first install of Lion and the recent shutdown I had installed rEFIt after attempting to run Ubuntu, however it was quickly uninstalled again with no issues in the following months.
    So, any clue what is going on with my disk?
    Thanks in advance!

    Maybe some added info will help. I have no problems starting the machine and using it. It's just that when I went to fix permissions and accessed disk utility from the hard drive to do it, I got the error message noted in my first post. I am wondering why that is, since it didn't happen before. I did use my 10.4 OS disk to start up just so I could fix permissions (that did fix permissions), but trying to repair the disk (to hopefully fix the problems I was having when I tried to access disk utility from my HD) didn't work. That's when I got the second error message. Is that because I've upgraded my OS to 10.4.11? I did that w/the Apple on line upgrades, so I don't have a 10.4.11 disk. Is that the problem? Also, do you know if there is a 10.4.3 upgrade? Thanks.

  • Disk Utility - Error message...how do I fix this???

    My powerbook has been running a little sluggish, so I decided to run Disk Utility and the following message appears:
    First Aid failed.
    The underlying task reported failure on exit.
    Can anyone let me know how to solve this???

    Hi, ejji. Without knowing which routine you were running, it's pointless to guess at what the problem might be. Try the following:
    Boot the Powerbook to your most recent retail OS X installer disc; use Disc 1, if it's a set. Note: (DO NOT use your Intel iMac installer disc(s) on the Powerbook.) Open Disk Utility from the Installer menu. Select the hard drive and the First Aid tab, then click "Repair Disk". This may be the same thing you were doing when the error message appeared before. If it is, repeating the procedure won't do any harm and might do some good. If you don't get a similar error message this time, repeat the process until DU has given you two consecutive "Appears OK" verdicts. If that doesn't happen after half a dozen runs, you'll need either to buy and use a more powerful disk Utility like DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro, or erase the drive completely and reinstall everything on it.
    If you do get two consecutive "Appears OK" outcomes from the Repair Disk routine, try the Repair Permissions routine next.
    Post back with results and/or additional questions.

  • Disk Utility Error Message for Firewire HD: Could not unmount disk

    I have one internal HD with 10.4.2, another with 9.2.2, and an external firewire with 9.2.2. Sometimes the firewire does not show up on my desktop, or when I try to copy files onto it the beachball spins endlessly. When I try to reboot holding down the Option key, the firewire HD does not show up.
    I ran TechTools 4.05 (while booted from my Tiger HD) on the firewire HD. Everything checked out.
    I tried running Disk Utility on the firewire. The first time this is what I got:
    "First aid failed. Invalid key check. Volume check failed. Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit."
    I ran Disk Utility again:
    "Repairing disk failed with error. Could not unmount disk."
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Your firewire disk is damaged. Try that: restart in safe mode (pressing SHIFT after the chime). Wait for complete boot. Plug the external HDD. Try again with Disk Utilities. Wait the report. My advise is to check its integrity. Try repair. If nothing works, try with DiskWarrior (the best utility).
    If DiskWarrior can't do the job, you – definitely have a damaged hard disk.

  • Error message: iTunes Library.itl file cannot be found or created

    I just upgraded to iTunes 7.0.2 and it will not launch. The following error appears:
    "The iTunes Library.itl file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "MyMusic" folder"
    I have uninstalled, re-installed and tried all the possible solutions on the Troubleshooting section, including repair and nothing works. I have both a Library.itl and a Library.xml file in the following path: C:\Documents and Setting\user\My Documents\My Music\iTunes - not sure what to do next.
    Right now I'd take my old version back if I could figure out how to get it.
    Dell Dimension 5150   Windows XP Pro  

    When you get that message, does iTunes give you the option of locating the file? If so, then browse to the file and select it. If you don't get that option, I believe that holding down the shift key (or possibly the control key) when you launch iTunes should cause you to get the option.

    What does all his mean? How can I repair my disk? My computer is acting up. The cursor turns into the coloured busy symbol at the slightest thing. It can stay busy for really long, preventing me from doing anything. I then have to shut down and restart. I've also received the flashing question mark when trying to restart.

    That happens. Applying an update sometimes makes the problems more noticeable.
    Luckily, I managed do back up everything on my two external HDs with no problems.
    What kind of backup? If it's a clone, it will have the same serious error you have now; unless it was done a while back, before any issues were there.
    things seem to freeze up when I'm doing lots of multitasking.
    Because you have serious directory corruption.
    But maybe it's time for a new machine sooner than I planned?
    This is repairable by you. It's possible a piece of hardware, think bad RAM, could cause this directory corruption.
    Try running your Apple Hardware Test to see if it flags anything.
