Error in downloading itunes in windows, all the .exe files turn into the itunes icon

Download the lnk registry fix from www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. Reinstall iTunes. Should you find that all of your desktop shortcuts have again turned into links to the iTunes application apply the patch.

  • When I drag pdf files into iBooks Author, the background in the pdf file changes into the colour of my book (brown/beige)?

    Hi,
    when I drag a pdf file (when working in Preview) into iBooks Author, the background colour in the pdf file changes into the background colour of the book.
    This happens not consistently, sometimes the background of the pdf file does not change (and stays white), sometimes it's like the text in the pdf file is 'lifted' of the file, and put on the page in iBooks Author (with a brown/beige background).
    All the pdf files are scanned pdf's, nothing comes out of Pages, Word, Excel,...
    Anybody?
    Thanks a lot!
    Wouter

    I have the same question (posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25644741#25644741).
    I believe this is because the PDFs have transparent backgrounds. As far as I can tell, the only way to fix it is to export the PDF as another file, such as an image file. Or perhaps convert it to Word and import it that way.

  • How to list the JAR files loaded into the Oracle Database ?

    How to list the JAR files loaded into the Oracle Database ?

    From 11.1 onwards, the below two views are available to identify the jar files loaded into the Database.
    JAVAJAR$
    JAVAJAROBJECTS$
    By querying the JAVAJAR$ view you can know information about the JAR files loaded into the Database and using JAVAJAROBJECTS$ view you can find all the java objects associated with the given JAR file.
    These views are populated everytime you use LOADJAVA with "-jarsasdbobjects" option to load your custom java classes.
    But unfortunately this feature is available only from 11.1 onwards and there is no clear workaround for above in 10.2 or earlier.

  • I'm running windows 7, downloaded firefox 3.6, when I click to open and run the exe file, it says the file is corrupt. Any thoughts? I have the latest Adobe Flash Player installed

    Says file is corrupt every time I try to install Firefox 3.6

    Hi Raphe,
    There are a couple of things I know that can cause this. One of which I have experienced myself.
    Sometimes, your router may be faulty. This will usually effect all downloads unless they are very small files. I have experienced this myself, and found the only way to fix the problem is to replace it.
    Another problem that could cause this is a virus. You should scan your computer for viruses using a trusted antivirus. The virus is sometimes scareware which claims you have a virus, but actually, the only virus is the scareware antivirus!
    I hope this helps,

  • HT5654 Can't update itunes. tried deleting all itunes programs as instructed, but it just won't download the .exe file

    I have tried everything I know to be able to download itunes back onto my computer since the itunes update failed.
    I have deleted all the programmes, and checked that they are deleted
    I have been struggling for weeks.   And iTines seem to want to charge me £25 for support to help me sort it out- I'm not a happy customer!

    Hello Selfdeterminant,
    Have you tried the steps as mentioned in this Apple Support kb for the iTunes Error after iTunes 11.1.4 Update : http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5376
    Did you remove all the iTunes and its Components in the Given Order.
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support ( If unable to remove you can ignore it )
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    If you are unable to download iTunes Setup file using the Default browser then have you tried downloading iTunes with a different Web Browser, if not then try that. ( Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome)
    Save the iTunes Installer file in the Location where you can easily find it
    After removing iTunes and its components Restart your Computer once and then Right click the iTunes Setup.exe file and run the Program as Administrator
    If you are using the 64 Bit version of Windows on your computer then it is Good to change the Install Location from " C:\Program Files(x86)\iTunes " To " C:\Program Files\iTunes " while installing iTunes when it asks for the Location.

  • TS5376 itunes 11.1.4 for Windows Vista - I've uninstalled prior version and associated applications, but get message"cannot download" the exe file. Why?

    Followed instructions to uninstall iTunes and related components and files, but still get error that the "exe" file cannot be downloaded. Any suggestions on what to do next?  This all started because I wanted to sync my iphone to the computer.

    I was able to successfully download iTunes after repeated attempts to remove Apple Mobile Device Support finally worked. Had to repair, re-install, then uninstall it. Found useful tips on how to do that in topic "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows Updates" by turingtest2.  After that, my browsers (IE or Firefox) would only partially download the iTunes install file. So paused virus scanner and Windows Defender. and uninstalled iCloud. Eventually IE downloaded the "exe" file and I was able to run it (albeit with several false starts). 
    Now trying to reinstall iCloud.  
    thanks for your help.

  • Can't open the Firefox after install on window. Error indicated I missing the EXE file

    Firefox required me to update the flash player, Norton indicated the flash player I just download may contains virus so I removed it right a way. After the virus scanned, I reboot the computer and I am not able to open the Firefox and other applications on the desktop. I got a message indicated the exe file was corrupted or removed. I really don't want to buy other program to fix this problem.

    Did you use the bad computer to post this message?
    Where did you get the Flash program from?
    Are all programs giving you problems, or only some? What ones?

  • I'm having to re-install PSE 11 on a new hard Drive.  I clicked the installer and it ran, but says it's missing the .exe file.  I then downloaded PSE 11 from your website and when I unzipped it and ran it, it wanted to uninstall PSE 11.  Now I'm contactin

    Okay, so, fast forward from July to now -
    - I've visited my closest Apple store's genius bar twice now. (Over an hour and a half away.)
    - My computer spent at least 8 hours behind their closed doors in the workshop
    - Several complete erases of the harddrive have taken place
    - Most of the Apple geniuses I dealt with were nice and very knowledgeable, but they were and still aren't 100% sure exactly what is wrong with my computer.
    The good news is:
    - They were able to at least get it running again, with a clean install from their servers of OS X Lion 10.7.5
    - They believe that my problems stem from either 1 of 2 things:
            - Faulty Hard Drive (even though it is brand new)
             - The wrong build of software being installed.
    Now, while the wrong build does seem like it could be the problem, it doesn't make sense in the aspect that all of the initial problems began when the first hard drive failed. The same problems continued when I changed out the failed hard drive with the brand spanking new one, and only slightly improved when I was able to successfully install the OS that came with the original disks for my computer. I'm not convinced this thing is back to normal, but hopefully I can make it last through getting a shiny new retina Macbook Pro in the coming future. Thank you so much to everyone who read and replied to this post!

  • I get a message that itunes  has stopped working. When I check out why it is because of the dep security on my computer. When I try to find the program for itunes for the .exe file i cannot find it to turn off the dep for  that file

    I get a message that itunes  has stopped working. When I check out why it is because of the dep security on my computer. When I try to find the program for itunes for the .exe file i cannot find it to turn off the dep for  that file

    I found the file but when I added it to the  list for the Data  Execution Program to ignore , I received a message that the Program.x86/itunes file must have the DEP on in order to run. Anyone else having this problem ?

    Hi sambanyc,
    What version of Adobe Reader have you installed on your Mac?
    Please try installing on a different Admin user account and check if that makes a difference.

  • The exe files are not responding on my computer. I can't get to firefox.exe - what can I do?

    I downloaded a 7-zip file from CNET and it didn't do what I wanted and so I uninstalled it. However, all the "exe" files on the computer are now not accessible. I can get to Firefox thru a "shortcut" on my desktop for the local newspaper. The e-mail is working thru my yahoo account only. I purchased PC MightyMax and that didn't do anything for me. I've tried to restore the computer to yesterday or earlier and the restore window will not come up either.

    In some cases, all EXEs being broken can indicate a malware infection.
    Do you get a specific error message when you try to start a program?
    I'm concerned that PC MightyMax itself might be an infection you need to remove, but let's come back to that issue.

  • I have downloaded the two files needed for the upgrade of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 to version 12 but I cannot open them to make them run and install. What am I supposed to do. One is a very large .7z file just over 1gb in size.

    How do I open  up a .7z file just over 1gb in size? I have just downloaded this as an upgrade from Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 to version 12. I cannot see any sign of the Akamai program on my computer that is supposed to open and install the two files that I downloaded.

    Thanks Hans
    I don’t mind mountain climbing but anything serious to do with a computer scares me silly.
    I installed the 64 bit version of 7zip and once I figured out how to tell the computer to use the right application within that to open the 7zip file, the big file opened and I was able to apply the .exe file to get things going and installed. In the end the default location the installation chose was program files x86 which I think is the 32 bit folder but it all seems to be ok now.
    Many thanks again for your response.
    Cheers
