I don't have Windows Pro Service Pack 3 available

I don't have the option of upgrading my Windows Pro laptop to Service Pack 3. I don't maintain the OS or OS level myself and don't have support to upgrade. I didn't realize iTunes and my iPod only operate with Service Pack 3. Am I just out of luck and need to get a different player and software?

No, my laptop's controlled by administrator's who need everything at a common level because they have to service so many people, so have it set up so I can't make that upgrade myself. Thanks though.
I like beating my head against a wall and so kept looking into this. Finally found a post on CNET, related to SP 2 that said you can't have something mapped to the drive after your last hard wired drive because iTunes or the iPod has to use that drive location. I had a network directory mapped to my E: drive, right after the DVD/CD drive of my laptop at D:. I moved that network directory to the end of all my mapped network directory drives to free up E:, connected up my iPod and voila!, there's my iPod in iTunes. The iPod synced right up and came alive.

Windows xp service pack 3 not compatible with 10.6

I have windows xp service pack 3. When I try to play music on Itunes 10.6, it just makes garbage. What is the highest version of itunes I can run.

iTunes (the current version) requires Windows XP SP2 and higher.
The version of iTunes is not the issue.
Does playing the media in other media players, like Windows Media Player, result in the same garbage?

Toshiba Satellite Pro A10,Windows XP Service Pack 2

Hi everyone,
I have a "Toshiba Satellite Pro A10: P4-M 2.2 GHz/XP Pro/15" TFT/40 GB/768 MB".
I installed the Windows XP Service pack-2 in my notebook.
After updating to winXP SP2, the only way to start up my comp after putting it in "standby mode" or "hibernation mode" is to witch power off and then start up.
I reinstalled "Toshiba Power Saver" but nothing came of it.
What can i do about it?
Kind regards,
Krasteff

Hi Krasteff
Your problem is difficult. If I had it, I'd try to make the status of the OS as clean as possible.
Try killing as many of the funny SYSTRAY applications as possible - means the small icons in the SYSTRAY. Some of them will not be killed that easily. Don't spend hours trying...
Then also try killing any, as You mentioned, antivirus or other services that are not necessary for the system. Check also that You do not have any USB / PC Card devices attached to the system.
Then try again.
Works better? Then "walk backwards" means try attaching the devices / starting the applications one by one and retry Hibernating. Keep track of what You reconnect/restart so You know what You did last when the system fails to start up again. There You have the cause of the problem and then You also know where to look for the solution.
Hope it helps!

Error - iTunes Library .iti file is locked on a disk or you do not have permission for this file. I can open itunes in the compatibility mode for Windows XP Service Pack 3 ???

In Windows 8 I received the error iTunes Library .iti file is locked on a disk or you do not have permission for this file. I can open itunes in the compatibility mode for Windows XP Service Pack 3.
I've tried changing permissions and sharing - nothing seems to work. mat be a Windows 8 issue???

You also need to make sure you have both read and write permission for the file, or for the whole iTunes folder for that matter. That's also done in Get Info for the file or folder concerned.
Read the part about changing permissions on the iTunes folder in: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11583914

Windows Vista Service Pack 1

Company I work for just got some new MSDN CD & DVD's and included in the pack was the official Windows Vista Service Pack 1 DVD. Just curious if anyone else has tried it with Boot Camp and had any issues? Was considering installing it but just wanted to check the forums to see what's up.

The general public release of Vista SP1 is out today and supposedly available through Windows Update, yet it does not appear as an available update when I check for it. Microsoft says that will happen in a number of cases, one being if there are incompatible drivers installed (which Microsoft knows about presumably). I'm wondering if anyone running Vista via Boot Camp has been able to access SP1 through Windows Update. It can also be downloaded, but I don't want to try it if it's not going to work. Another problem might be that I only have around 1.75 gigabytes left on the Windows partition. Any advice appreciated.

Rescue And Recovery On Clean Install Of Windows XP Service Pack 2

Hey,
I have recently purchased a refurbised IBM ThinkPad T40 2373-82M laptop computer. When I received the computer it did not have any recovery partition or recovery CD's that came with it. I then installed my own personal copy of Windows XP Service Pack 2 on the machine and installed drivers and applications individually by downloading them off the Lenovo support website. However, I have attempted to install the latest version of the ThinkVantage Rescue And Recovery Program (Version 4.20) on my computer but I end up with the following error: 'There is not enough free space on the computer to install or upgrade the Rescue and Recovery environment'. When I did a full clean install on the system I deleted all partitions that were on the computer at the time during the Windows XP installation and made a single NTFS partition. There were two 20GB partitions on the hard drive when I bought it, but neither of them were the IBM Rescue and Recovery partition. Could it be possible for me to install this software on my laptop, and make a Rescue and Recovery partition, now and make it the same way it would of been when it left the IBM factory?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Ash.

No GMail found using FF 17.0.1 with Windows XP Service Pack 3

I recently made FF my primary browser. iGoogle is my homepage. Using an older PC with Windows XP, Service Pack 3. I have a gadget on my homepage for GMail, but it won't open up for me, nor can I manually go to Gmail. The message I get in the Gadget box is:
The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept
cookies.
I am new to FF, and don't understand what I need to do to fix this error.

You're welcome

Windows XP Service Pack 2

My company is considering deploying windows XP Service Pack 2. Does anyone know of any compatability issues after the updates have been applied? I'm wondering if IE is going to have any problems with the source pages generated by Plumtree. I understand that the service pack includes several changes to IE.
Thanks,
Jared Lanter

I've been using 4.5 WS SP 2 for a few days now without incident. My client workstation is running Win XP SP 2 with the updated IE. Don't know about 5.x, but I haven't noticed a difference on 4.5 WS.
You should review the documents Microsoft put out regarding the IE updates. For the mostpart you should be fine. If you have embedded Active-X controls or java you might see issues with security warnings. This document might be helpful to you (there's a better one, but I can't seem to find the link...):

Windows 7 Service Pack 1

According to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff817622(WS.10).aspx Win7 SP1 was released to the Microsoft Beta testers in July
I hope that Adobe is monitoring this, to ensure that whatever Microsoft does... it does not break Adobe applications

Some feedback from the field:
We've recently deployed Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 to a small group of about 20 PCs as a test.
These consisted of a mixture of a PCs each with either Adobe Reader X, Adobe Reader 9, or Adobe Acrobat Pro v9 installed.
The deployment was done using SCCM and the service pack was deployed as a windows update.
It turns out that the Web Browser integration with Internet Explorer 8 for each of these products was broken by installing the Windows Service Pack.
This means clicking on a link to a PDF in Internet explorer resulted in an error message about the product not being properly installed, and the PDF was not displayed.
Fortunately it was easy to fix, by simply repairing the relevant product involved.

Running Windows XP service pack 3. Updated Firefox from 8.0 to 9.0. Now when Firefox opens "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is displayed in a window and no home page appears. What's wrong?

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I have found a fix after doing additional research through this forum. Tech Note #328730 addresses this problem and it works for Photoshop Album 3.2 even though it was written for release 1.0.
Here is a link that will take you directly to the Tech Note:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=328730
When using this fix the Tech Note indicates:
"Imported image data and tags are lost when you re-create the My Catalog.psa file, so you need to reimport images and reapply any tags"
however it did retain the captions (at least it did for me).

I don't have Windows Pro Service Pack 3 available
