Default audio player issue with ITunes 10.5.
I recently downloaded the ITunes 10.5 update and it has permanently set ITunes as my default audio player. It will not accept when I "uncheck" the ITunes as default player under the advanced options tab. Does anyone know how to resolve?
I don't know if this will work for you but this was an easy fix for me. At first, I sync like how I usually sycned my ipods etc. But I pressed the "sync" button in iTunes instead of it automatically doing it for me. It kept on doing step 1 of 3 and it finished really quickly, I knew there was something wrong with it. Nothing was synced to my iphone. I had to manually go to the "Music" tab of my device and select Sync Music, apply. It took a while but it actually worked. Again, I don't know if it will work for you, just give it a try. Other threads said I had to "restore" but I've never actually restored my iphone before so I was a little hesitant. You could try that if my method doesn't work.

Lacking sufficent privilges to make ITUNES the default Audio player.
Never had any problems until updating to this latest version of ITUNES but it now gives me the "you lack sufficent privilages" message whenever I try to set ITUNES as the default player for audio files in preferances.
I've set my permissions on MY DOCUMENTS/MY MUSIC and all sub-folders/files to full control for everyone and yet this problem persists.
I have went into program access control and set ITUNES as default and it acts like it is setting it as default but when I open ITUNES it asks me if I want to set it to default player I check yes and it promply tells me I lack sufficent privilages to do so.
I am of coure running as an ADMIN account.
I am running XP PRO with all latest updates and patches
SPYBOT S&D
SpywareBlaster
AVG anti-virus
AD-AWARE SE
COMODO Firewall
I have tried changing things with all of the above security items turned off on 2 differant ADMIN level accounts and the result is the same...no joy
My computer has Two ADMIN level accounts on it and a VISITOR account with limited privilages...could the limited Privilage account be causing a problem as it was added after my original install of ITUNEs (version 6.whatever) and was already installed on the computer when I installed the current upgraded version.
Since ITUNES installs it's startup ICON in the ALL/USERS folder could the fact that the one account has limited privilages prevent allowing the change to be made on all accounts??
If anyone has the solution please respond...this version should be called LOONEYTUNES cause that is where it is driving me!!It makes and keeps all the changes I make in preferances with the exception of making ITUNES the default audio player. The only solution or work around has been to go and right click on say a MP3 file select file/open with/select ITUNES check the box always open with this program box and then it will open the Mp3 files with ITUNES.
It kinda gets what I want done I suppose, but I, like the Dyson vacuum guy on TV believe things "should work as they as supposed to".
As yet ITUNES Ver.7 has been a disappointment, as long as windows XP has been around and as widspread as the usage of ITUNES is on windows platrom machines, IMHO there is no excuse for these kind of compatability issues. -
ITunes 10.6.3.25 does not stop being the default audio player
I have tried to disable the setting for iTunes from being the default audio player but, it does not work.
After unchecking the box under: Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced, clicked OK, closed iTunes and reopened it, the check box for this feature remains checked!
The older version of iTunes version 10 did work until I upgraded to this version (10.6.3.25).
I hope someone fixes or has a work around for this soon...It's really an inconvenience!
CaryHey thanks for replying.
Here's what I did:
First I tried the Winsock reset in the Command prompt. Nothing changed.
Next, I tried the instructions on http://http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123. The only other program that came up on the 'Winsock Providers' tab on the program was 2 Windows Live applications, which I can do without. So I deleted all Windows Live Applications.
I did the Winsock reset in the Command Prompt again and rebooted my comp.
Unfortunately, nothing has changed. iTunes keeps freezing at various stages of the sync, then shows the candy cane-striped bar with either the words 'Finishing sync' or 'Cancelling sync', before showing the Apple logo.
Sometimes, iTunes gets to the syncing stage - "Copying # of ####" - where it will trudge through the first, second and third tracks before flashing "Copying 4 of ####" for a split second and I catch "Cancelling sync" briefly before the Apple logo appears.
Again, I've repeated the steps I mentioned in my previous post. Does ANYONE know when the new version of iTunes is set to be released?! This one is driving me INSANE, to say the least!! -
Making itunes default audio player
my XP account is set with admin privilages.
When start itunes under my account, I get message saying itunes has detected not default audio player and asks if I want to make it such.
When answer yes, I get message saying I don't have enough access privaleges for that operation.
What privaleges does one need to do this?hi y'all!
what happens if you go into the "set program defaults" area of your Add/Remove Software, and toggle the default media player settings in there a few times?
(i'm not sure if this actually works, but i keep suggesting it to people and the threads keep going silent ... so i figure it might be worth a shot.)

Issues with iTunes Media Folder resetting to default location
This is my 1st post to the Apple Support Community (the problem I have is with iTunes, but I believe it also has to do with the way OS X Lion is setup and the way Networked Drives are mounted in it) ...so I hope I've posted this to the correct place. Thank you in advance for any help I'm going to get here. I have no expirience with Mac OS X's (coming from a Windows background) so please bear with me, but I am a S/W Tester by trade so I'd like to think I'm resonably IT literate.
ISSUE:
I have a problem with iTunes and my Media Folder resetting constantly - my Setup is a MacBook Air, with an Apple Time Capsule 2TB which is providing my Wifi Network.
I want to setup iTunes so that it will permenatly point to my Data Folder on the Apple Time Capsule, so that when I download purchases, synch iPhones, or rip Music it will end up on the Apple Time Capsule and not on the MacBook Air's SDD Drive
I though I had managed to do this, but after I shut down the MacBook Air, and then logged back in to rip some music, iTunes had repointed to the MacBook Air's SDD, and all the CD's i ripped were saved there instead of the Apple Time Capsule. So far I have done the following;
STEPS CARRIED OUT SO FAR:
1) Connected the MacBook Air to the Wifi Network provided by the Apple Time Capsule - I can see the Time Capsule in the Finder app.
2) Gone to GO MENU > LOCATE SERVERS and selected the top level DATA FOLDER on the Apple Time Capsule....I believe that I've managed to create an ALIAS (Shortcut?) that points to this, and it's on my Desktop.
3) Next I went to SETTINGS > USERS > and made sure that ALIAS (Shorcut?) to the DATA FOLDER on the Apple Time Capsule is always loaded up on startup for my UserID
4) Next, I found my iTunes folder, and MOVED it from the MacBook Air SDD to the Apple Time Capsule's HDD over the Wifi Network.
5) I then went to ITUNES PREFERENCES and changed the MEDIA FOLDER it pointed to, from the MacBook Air's SDD to the one on the Apple Time Capsule.
6) Then I logged out and shut down the MacBook Air.
7) I powered on the Macbook Air, and logged in, then ripped some music - I then found that iTunes had created a new iTunes Folder for my User on the MacBooks SDD and all the CD's I ripped had been saved there. Also under the ITUNES PREFERENCES menu, it looks like iTunes had reset the location of the MEDIA FOLDER...
I don't know if this is an issue with iTunes or not - I'm assuming it's a setup issue on my part, and that maybe I haven't created a permenant link to the Apple Time Capsule as I thought I had. If it helps I was attempting to do something similar to whats described in this YouTube video; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA399lEXRTE
Thanks again for any help

if you really moved your entire iTunes folder, the next step needs to be launching iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, clicking on choose library at the prompt, and selecting the iTunes folder you moved to the TC.
as for auto-mounting the TC's disk on startup, you might find this discussion interesting. -
Default Audio Player Error - Is there a solution?!
Hi,
I've been checking in for quite some time to determine if there has a been a solid solution to the inability for some ppl to make iTunes the default audio player in Windows. Here's the exact issue error:
On opening iTunes the following prompt appears:
"iTunes has detected that it is not the default audio player for audio files. Do you want to make iTunes the default player for audio files?"
Selecting "Yes" prompts the following error panel:
"An error occurred while updating the default player for audio file types. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
Here's some of the responses I've seen to this problem and my personal answers.
1. Do you have full admin privleges? Yes.
2. Do you have MS Antispyware disabled? Yes. It's actually not even installed.
3. Do you have other virus protection software (Norton, McAfee, etc.) disabled when installing iTunes? Yes.
4. Did you make iTunes the default player in the Control Panel "Set Program Access and Defaults"? Did you reboot? Yes.
5. Do you have full write privileges to your "My Documents" folder or your iTunes music folder location? Yes.
I've scoured the net and tried everything. So far I'm yet to see a concrete solution though I have seen many ppl complain about the issue. Anyone know of a solid fix or if Apple has addressed this? It's only with 6.x that this issue has popped up.
I'd REALLY appreciate any insight (as it seems many others would as well).
Thanks,

How do I get rid of lip-sync issues with iTunes 10.2.2.12?
Hi Everyone.
Firstly, a very Happy Easter!
I'm having lip-sync issues with iTunes playback on my PC. The video is largely smooth with the occaisional choppiness when the CPU is made to work hard. (Playback on my iPod Touch is fine).
The system stats for my PC are at the bottom of the post.
The sound is produced through a Creative Live Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 card.
Video is through a NVIDIA Geforce 6200 with 512Mb of RAM. (All video and audio drivers are up to date).
The physical set-up is that I have iTunes installed on the C drive and my media installed on an external USB hard-drive.This isn't just a problem with 10.2.2.12 - it's been there for the last few updates.
I suppose my main questions are:
Should iTunes and my media be on the same drive? (Which would mean the external drive as I'm short on space on the C drive).
Is there some combination of settings in QuickTime that will solve this? (I've tried different combinations, but it doesn't really help).
Is the spec (below) of my PC causing any issues.
Here's an Easter Egg for anyone able to help!!
All the best
BandAidUK.

Playback pauses and audio sync issues with live video stream
I'm seeing playback pauses about every three seconds and audio sync issues with our live demo stream when using the OSMF/Strobe player. It happens on both our 2Mbps 720p stream and our 480p 750Kbps stream so it does not seem to be related to higher resolution/bandwidth streams. It also happens if I point directly to a stream asset or if I point to a .f4v with both streams listed for dynamic so it does not seem to be related to dynamic streaming specifically.
The same live streams play back very well without pauses or audio sync issues in the Akamai's dynamic player and even slightly better with JW 5.2.
I have viewed the OSMF/Strobe playback on three different laptops of various age (3 months to 2 years) and two are Windows and one is Linux. I have also tried the various buffering options on the Flash Media Player Setup and Strobe setup and it has not made a noticeable difference.
To see the stream with the Akamai player, go to: http://live.kulabyte.com
To see the stream with the OSMF/Strobe player, go to: http://live.kulabyte.com/osmf
I do not have JW set up for public viewing yet, but the two above show the distinct difference.
We are really hoping to start pointing our customers towards the OSMF player because of the support provided by the community and Adobe, but we have to get the quality of the playback to be acceptable first.
If someone has ideas on debugging I can PM the actual video assets to you.
Thanks,
TimHi Tim,
You need to add this setting:
dynamicStreamBufferTime=8
The actual value can be higher or lower. The best practice is to use a value that is twice the keyframe distance. Anyway, try different values and see which performs the best for your content.
I know that the setup page does not contain this option and it is not documented in the UserGuide. We simply missed it. Sorry.
Also note that the dynamic buffering algorithms are not being used for dynamic streaming content. I tried to explain this here:
https://sourceforge.net/adobe/smp/wiki/Dynamic%20Buffering/
Looking forward to your confirmation that this solved your issue.

Issues with iTunes Match on iPhone
I am having some frustrating issues with iTunes Match and my iPhone 4 iOS 5.
1) When using cellular data (3G), the songs simply do not play from the music app. It works fine when connected to wifi.
Under settings, cellular data has been enabled for use in the music app.
2) iTunes match constantly switches off spontaneously on iPhone. I need to go back to the settings to enable it every single time I use the app.
I feel that iTunes Match was a total waste of money, considering the only reason I invested in it was to have my library accessible from my iPhone.
Any help would be much appreciated!iTunes match doesn't work like that and if you don't like it then your best option is to turn it off and go back to syncing. However if you make sure that your device has a good Wi-Fi connection, re-downloading all your content shouldn't really be a big issue.

Issues with itunes 10.5 on Windows 7 (32 Bit) When Trying to sync iphone 4S or older
I see a lot of people out there, specifically windows OS owners (xp all the way to 7), having issues with iTunes 10.5. Here are the following issues I've encountered (some may only have one problem, others my have a combo pack of problems).
1. iphone 4S or older won't sync or backup
2. iTunes store won't open
The issue I found after using the diagnostics tool in iTunes (which is useless in identify scripting issues or major communication issues), reviewing the windows event log, and reinstalling all apple software and components, was the fact that my spyware and anti virus software was causing a communication error within apple's software. I use spyware doctor with anti virus. I had to uninstall spyware doctor in order for iTunes 10.5 to work. After that, everything worked well and I did a clean install of spyware doctor.
If the issue still persists, you might have to reset your internet protocol (TCP/IP). You have to run a command prompt as an administrator and enter the following: netsh winsock reset
Visit this Microsoft link for more info about resetting your IP: support.microsoft.com/kb/299357
Finally words: Apple, like all other software companies, continually encounter software glitches and issues because they don't test products correctly before bringing them to market- this has been a reoccurring theme for the last 2-3 years. The most important aspect of using any software should be functionality, efficiency, ease of use, and above all "A Positive End User Experience." Wasn't that Steve Job's mantra? We can all hope that Apple embraces his philosophy and vision for the many years to come. This, above all, is not a great start for Apple moving forward without their true inspirational leader.Here is what worked for me for both 10.5 and 10.5.1 after hours of frustration with Itunes stopping and shutting down in the middle of a sync or tranferring Apps downloaded on my Ipad2 or Iphone 4:
Start iTunes in iTunes Safe Mode:
1. hold down the Shift and Control key together and click to start iTunes.
2. when you see the iTunes icon in the task bar, click on it.
3. you will get a box that says "iTunes is running in safe mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been termporarily disabled." [I don't know what plug-ins I installed but you should clearly see that these so-called visual plug-ins are likely the cause of your issues];
4. click Continue to open iTunes.
You could already have your device connected to your computer or do it after opening iTunes in its safe mode.
Now press your sync button and everything should work fine.
I also disabled Genius in iTunes preferences but I'm not sure if this is one of the issues causing these types of problems.
I hope this works. This may be the workaround for all of us Windows 7 64-bit folks. -
I'm having a huge issue with itunes locating my missing files..and it's too many for me to locate 1 by 1..It says I'm missing over 3,000 songs and They are all in my music folder..What can I do to fix this issue? I've looked at all the tutorials on youtube and none of it works. I recently got a new computer and I Back-Up all my music and itunes playlist and I import it on my new computer with the new itunes and I go to play a few songs, it says I'm missing them I locate a few but it's still like 3,000 missing and again they are all on the computer and in one folder..Please Help !
I did that and nothing changed half my songs still have examination marks beside them
I also just tried dragging my folder of music int he playlist and it duplicated all of my songs? My playlist was at 5k now it's at 10k becuz of 3 duplicates of songs. Is there a way to delete multiple duplicate files? -
Updating Issue with iTunes 7.0.1.8
A few weeks ago I made the jump to the newly released iTunes 7.0. I had a slew of issues with this update (which by the way Apple has still not provided a working solution for), which I addressed in detail in this post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3170496#3170496
Today I updated to the new iTunes 7.0.1.8. There were no issues during the installation itself, however afterwards is a completely different story. When I attempt to open iTunes, I receive the following error message: "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."
My first thought was to see if Quicktime is working normally. It is. No problem there. I thought perhaps I should try repairing the installation. So I went to Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Software > iTunes. I attempted to use the 'repair' option. This did not work at all.
At this point I restarted my computer and uninstalled iTunes. I restarted once again and reinstalled. When the installation had finished I received the prompt, "would you like to run iTunes after the installation is completed?" I clicked 'yes.' iTunes opened, no problem.
I closed iTunes and attempted to reopen it normally. It would not open, instead giving me the same message: "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."
I thought the previous issues with iTunes not recognizing my iPod were bad enough but now I can't even open iTunes at all. This is absolutely unacceptable on Apple's part. It was bad enough that they released 7.0 with all its bugs, but at this point they should have their act together. Instead the problems are getting worse.
Dell Dimension 4600 Windows XP ProPlease let me know if I can get rid of this feature.
You sure can.
iTunes View menu > Hide MiniStore will do the trick. -
I have not had any issue with Itunes on my PC until very recently. Every now and then my Itunes library appears on my screen? I have not clicked the itunes icon beforehand nor plugged in my Ipod Touch? Why does this happen please as it is driving me crazy!.
What's the precise text of the message, please? (There's a couple of different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

Having issues with iTunes 11.1.5 on Windows 8.1
Ever since I've refreshed my windows computer two weeks ago. I am having issues with iTunes 11.1.5. For some reason I can access the iTunes Store, but most of the time when I do something internet related on iTunes, the app is either stuck on checking for downloads or when trying to sign in. I am trying to update all my apps but only a couple out of 30 actually start downloading but they keep getting stuck at "processing file". I have used another computer with Windows 8.1 with the same version of iTunes and its downloading app updates fine.
it works at first then after trying to update a few apps (the third one this time) iTunes again stops working and gives me the 8008 error.
Okay ... let's try seeing if that one is the root cause of the errors.
Try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
Does that calm down the 8008s? -
