Finally got iTunes 7 to work on Windows XP system
After struggling for a couple days trying to get iTunes 7 to work on my XP system, I finally found the solution (for my system at least). I downloaded & installed the latest Creater Sound Blaster Audigy driver (Audigy 2 series and Audigy 4 series Driver 02.08.0004), then uninstalled iTunes 7, downloaded latest iTunes 7 file, reinstalled it.
Previously iTunes would not play anything, progress bar would not move, no sound. Now it works fine.
Maybe for those with other sound cards, updating driver may help?
Itunes 10.6.1 doesn't work on Windows XP. Itunes process appears in Process list in Task Manager, but disappears after few seconds.
Could you check something for me please? Is your QuickTime Player also currently failing to launch (with or without an error message)?

i just got an ihome system and had trouble with it connecting to my iPhone. I finally got it to work and now my itunes doesn't recognize my phone. My software is up to date on both my Mac and my iPhone and I have shut everything down and restarted. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Solution found for getting itunes to work on windows XP 64 bit
I recently just got an ipod nano and I got it to work on my window xp 64 bit desktop. I followed the instructions from http://skunkwerks.wordpress.com/2008/04/13/getting-itunes-to-work-with-windows-x p-x64/ and it works but it comes up with an error that your ipod requires itunes 8.0 or later because the prior instructions is for itunes version 7.6.2 so you need to go to http://pctech.invisibill.net/?page_id=36 click on the last link and download itunes64setup again, except this time it's for version 8. Repeat the same steps you did for 7.6.2 only for 8 this time.
You can run a 32 bit version of Windows XP in a virtual machine. Microsoft is ending support for XP in less than two years, so you may want to invest in an upgrade.

Audigy 2 ZS, Vista x64: Finally got bass redirection working!
=Audigy 2 ZS, Vista x64: Finally got bass redirection working!B Hey guys,
I have hooked a Teufel Concept G to my Audigy 2 ZS. The Speakers do not have internal cross mix, so unless the sound card provides a bass signal there will be NO bass at all. This has not been a problem under linux, since it automatically configures the sound card to send out bass, but very frustrating in Windows Vista x64. GTA4 is no fun without bass ;-)
After endless searching and messing with different drivers (breaking the whole vista sound system) I coincidently got bass redirection (and CMSS2 apparently) working today.
These are the steps I took:
. Fresh install of Windows Vista x64
2. Installation of Audigy 2 drivers provided by WindowsUpdate, did not download from Creative Labs
3. Use an old CtPanel-App which actually could activate bass redirection and CMSS2?
I uploaded the App:?
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L6J0ZJVA
If you start the App it will take ages until it pops up, but then it works just fine. Feedback appreciated!
regards
Tiedemate?I also have the same problem, sound stop working after getting SP2, I updated vista to SP2 because I want to update to windows 7, with win 7 I have try all the drivers without success I still have no sound and with some drivers I get a blue screen. After 2 restarts windows 7 ask me to fix the problem with restore and vola everything works ok but no sound.

iTunes stopped working on Windows 7, 64 bit. Uninstalled and attempted to reinstall. Windows installer error....iTunes. 10.6.3.25.

Since I upgraded Windows Vista to Windows 7 iTunes only works in Windows 7 "Safe Mode".
Since I upgraded Windows Vista to Windows 7 iTunes only works in Windows 7 "Safe Mode". it will not run in the normal mode. (It ran properly in Vista) I spent several hours with the Microsoft Technician going through the "1717 suggestions, but to no avail. On my own, I tried iTunes in Windows 7 "Safe Mode" and was successful! It ran like a charm. Unfortunately, I can't run iTunes properly in "Safe Mode" I have not tried moving one set of the files yet. But if iTunes works in Safe Mode, do I need to relocate anything or do I need to find what is causing the conflict between Windows 7 and iTunes?
Which Satellite A205?
Which Windows 7 (64-bit)? What about the other laptop?
Which printer model, version, and so forth?

When I installed iTunes 11 on a Windows 8 system the installation did not seem to work correctly. There is no sidebar and no ribbon w/ File, Edit, etc. I tried to use an external hard drive to move from an older computer using XP to the new one w/ Wdw 8. I thought if I deleted iTunes from the Wdw 8, I could reload it. Apparently I did not delete the music files because they appeared in the format I complained about, no side bar or ribbon. Can anyone walk me through the process of deleting everything and reinstalling? I am not very computer savy so a step by step would really be appreciated.
Thank you,ctrl B - Show menus

Can't get itunes to work for windows xp 64 bit
I can't get itunes to work for windows xp 64 bit. It won't even download.
These are the Windows requirements according to the iTunes dpownload site http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes/download/http://:
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later; 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
xp 64 bit is not mentioned but it doesn't seem to be supported for the latest ITunes so it seems that you're out of luck. -
What additional software is required to make Itunes player work on Windows 7?
What additional software is required to make Itunes player work on Windows 7? I don’t have Java installed
I can not fill out the form fields when singing up, I had to use I.E. 11 to get the apple ID. I couldn’t enter my credit or debit card number in the field or any other info in any of the fields.
Is there a program I can download from apple, to see if my computer can run itunes?
Is there any windows security software that may block itunes inadvertently?

i hooked up mine airport and finally got it to work but every once in a while my web browser gets stuck. how di fi?
Wow that was really quick, thank you so much. Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it. I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names. isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

Try to install new itunes software on my Windows XP system. Stop installing with the message cannot deinstall old version of Bonjour.msi. What to do? Cleaned already registry.
KR,
BerndDownload the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time? -

I finally got itunes 7.4.2 to install on my pc!
*The short version:*
Downloaded itunes program at work and brought home on USB drive and itunes installed instantly. Still a mystery but itunes works now.
*The long version:*
So i finally bought my first ipod this past weekend. Very excited until i couldn't get itunes to install on my pc. I was able to download the file but when i double clicked the install file i got a message that said windows could not id the publisher so itunes would not install. I worked through every step on the itunes help page (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976) and then searched the microsoft site. But nothing worked so i started to look for programs that might conflict with the download. I turned off all firewalls and antivirus settings and deleted Download Accelerator Plus (DAP) just in case that was screwing something up. I called apple tech support and they worked through everything and told me it was a problem with my pc. My pc manufacturer said it was my dsl provided (bellsouth / AT&T) that was causing the problem.
So as a last resort i downloaded the itunes file at work saved it on a USB drive and installed on my home pc and everything worked perfectly. I don't know what the problem was but i at least got it solved. Hope this helps.You'll need to ask that question in the AppleSeed Discussions forum. The TOU of the beta software presents us from discussion in a public forum.
You should have received an email alerting you to the new beta version and instructions on how to get it.
