Had to reinstall iTunes 7.02 and now my DVD drive Icon is changed.
Hi Everyone,
I had to re-install iTunes 7.02 (the latest version) because when I wanted to update album art on my iPod it errored out "Unknown Error -50). Reinstalling iTunes fixed that problem and I didn't have to restore my iPod. BUT now my DVD drive lost it's icon, it used to be one that looked like a box with a cd on top of it, now it is a box with what looks like a floppy drive on it. It works ok and I can right click on it and it is still known as a DVD drive and this is just a cosmetic issue I know, but still it isn't the right icon for this drive. I have tried the Autoplay fix program from Microsoft but that doesn't fix it. I have tried the Tweak Windows XP Repair Icons function and that doesn't fix it either.
I have an Insignia D400A with a Pentium 4 2.8 GHz processor and two 512 MB sticks of RAM and the op sys is Windows XP SP2.
Is there a way to fix this icon problem?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Just a bump on this, anyone have any ideas??

I purchased audiobooks through iTunes and Audible.com. I have had to reinstall iTunes in the past and all the audiobooks remained in place. This is the first time I have lost them ALL. Help!!
Mortimer, iTunes does not know when you restore a file. After you restore the file, you need to re-add the file to iTunes.
If you know exactly which files you restores, re-add them using File > Add File to LIbrary.
Otherwise, lre-add the folders. iTunes has certain safeguards to reduce duplicates when you do this, which are not perfect but are better than nothing. Start with a few small folders and see if you are happy with the results. -

I just reinstalled iTunes 10.7 on my pc (Windows Vista 64-bit) after that disastrous iTunes 11, and now when iTunes opens, I get an annoying error message "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occured (4002)" I click on OK and I have no problem with iTunes opening and playing anything but how can I get rid of this annoying message?

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=be09gGFw-Y4

Installed itunes 6 and now CD/DVD drive won't work at all
I just bought a new ipod and installed the software and now my CD/DVD drive won't work at all. Here is my info: Could someone please help!!!
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
Dell Computer Corporation Inspiron 5160
iTunes 6.0.4.2
CD Driver 2.0.4.3
CD Driver DLL 2.0.3.2
LowerFilters: ASAPIW2K (6.0.2.0),
UpperFilters: GEARAspiWDM (2.0.4.3),

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.
Current user is administrator.
D: SONY DVD+-RW DW-D56A, Rev PDS7
Drive is empty.
E: ROXIO DVD-ROM EMULATOR, Rev
Drive is empty.
If anyone has a solution for this stupid problem that would be great.
ThanksYes, I suspect that it's the virtual drive emulator software you have there. I know nothing about that software and it doesn't look like the Roxio support page even mentions it, so it's probably software old enough that they're not supporting it anymore.
To uninstall any software, I would start with the "Add and Remove Programs" Control Panel. Uninstall it there, and then use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility —
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=290301
Download and install that. Run it and find the drive emulator software on the list and remove it there. And reboot and see if that has successfully removed it.
There is a work around that if we just remove the iTunes CD driver, you'll probably get your drive back, but you'll only be able to rip CDs, you won't be able to burn them without the iTunes CD driver installed. You do have some Pinnacle CD burning software installed. Are you currently using that or is that leftover cruft as well? -
Install iTunes 7.6, and loose my DVD Drive after it.
I run: Windows Vista Ultimate PRE-SP1. Lite-ON Blu-Ray DVD Player.
I install iTunes v7.6 and get the following after reboot:
"Warning! iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CD's you need to reinstall iTunes."
My DVD drive is no longer recognized by my computer. Windows Hardware says there is a driver error. Re-installation of these Drivers results in same error. Upon removal of iTunes the error magicly dissapears and there is my DVD drive again.
Please Tell me someone knows of a hotfix for this issue! I am missing my iTunes.No this is an Apple issue. I ran out and bought 4 Mac's laptops last year when I had to buy a "Vista" computer.
Because of my business I have to use PC (software). since I purchased Vista I was unable to use my 3 video pods (my kids and mine). itunes did exactly what you are discribing here. I totally blamed microsoft..
HOWEVER after downloading service pack 1 and purchasing a new iphone 3G it was working like a charm ....NOT a problem. I used "mobile me" to sync my outlook and was happier than I had been in over a year with BOTH my PC and Mac.
After the upgrade last week (I upgraded 8-1-08) my PC sees the CD/DVD drive however itunes is disabling it. I have a ton of software on my PC Office ultimate 07, Photoshop 6 Roxio 10 all of it. NONE of those had updates.
I am NOT happy with the thousands that I have placed into apple the last 6 months. I really thought this was Microsoft...it is not.
I am lucky because I have a Mac Pro to sync my iphone too (even though I am NOT proficent on a Mac yet). I actually signed onto these boards to see if I could run it on Mac since I installed it on PC..
I tried to see if I would downgrade to the previous version ...no luck...apple likes to install as soon as you boot up...I also tried to restore to a previous time (prior to the upgrade) that also didn't work..itunes again downloaded immediatly after a reboot.
Apple needs to get a fix...I was going to automate a business with MACs...I have my kids on both now..I have an appointment with their business sales..
I think I will bring this computer in and tell them we will talk AFTER you fix this simple problem.. I would HATE to lose patients medical records because of a bad download. -
Installed iTunes 7.6 and my CD/DVD Drive disappears
I noticed that since I installed the newest version of iTunes on windows vista my DVD player is no longer present. I realized this through a series of trial and error. Originally I noticed my DVD drive was not responding and could not figure out why. Had HP tech support fix the problem by removing a damaged registry key. But later when I went to iTunes it caused an error in iTunes. When I reinstalled iTunes the DVD drive went missing again. Microsoft Windows SP 1 hasnt fixed this and HP has not fixed this has Apple or anyone fixed this issue yet?
Had the same problem but I've fixed it:
Go to Run. Type in "regedit" and click OK. Now follow this procedure:
Computer>HKEYLOCALMACHINE>SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Control>Class>{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE1 0318.
In this folder, you should see a file called UpperFilters. Delete this! Your CD/DVD Drive should show up again! iTunes should continue to work but I've noticed that it doesn't allow me to burn CDs anymore :S -
Upgraded itunes now my dvd drive has stopped working
I recently updated itunes and now my dvd driver has stopped working. My computer won't even recognize my dvd drive. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and uninstalled itunes several times. I've tried system restore. I've even looked for an older version of itunes and no luck. I took it into Fry's electronics and they fixed it but when I hooked up my ipod it stopped working again. I don't know what to do. This is really frustrating and I am just tired of itunes messing with stuff and constatly crating new versions. I've read other threads and have tried some of the suggestions with the registration which didn't work.
Can you please help me.You might get more help if you post your question in the correct forum.
This is the 'iTunes for Mac' forum and I can see from your post that you actually have a PC.
PC users will not really be reading this forum, which is the help you need.

You may want to make sure you're installing the right version of itunes. If you have a 64bit system, you will need to make sure to download and install the 64bit version of iTunes.

- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- After all the stuff is on your computer, connect the iPod to yur computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
- Restore the iPod from that backup. -

I recently had to reinstall iTunes on my PC (Windows 7) and lost most of the library. I restored with what I had on my hard drive on the PC, but there is much more music on my iPod classic than is in the iTunes current library. I'm worried that if I synch now it will delete the extra music from my iPod, some of which I don't have available to re-rip etc.. Will this happen, or is it safe to synch more content without losing from the iPod what is already there but not in my iTunes library on the PC? Thanks in advance for any help.
Are you now using a different username from the one you used prior to migrating? If so that is the reason for the problem. You might, then, give this a try:
To fix Home folder permissions
Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed. -

My computer's hardrive went bad an I had to get a new one. Now my computer has nothing on it and I had to reinstall itunes and i have no music or anything. So now I cannot sync my ipod or anything. Is there anything i can do to get all of my stuff back?
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back. -
I had to reinstall itunes and now when I plug in my ipod itunes does not automatically open to my library or where I can access the itunes store. What do I do now?
Open iTunes and connect your iPod. Select your iPod in iTunes from the Source list. (I'm assuming this still works, although you didn't indicate if it did or didn't.) Make sure the box is checked to Open iTunes when this device is connected. You should be all set!

I had to reinstall iTunes cause during update it was shut off by mistake, now it won't come up and says,"The file "iTunes Library .itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes", what do I do?
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
