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

Can't insert a CD/DVD into the disc drive. Recently installed a new harddrive, and the CD/DVD drive hardware is no longer recognized. Also, with new harddrive, OS was updated from Snow Leopard to Mt. Lion 10.8.5 on late 2007 MBP.

Also, when I check out the hardware list, under Disc Burning - the following is reported: No disc burning device was found. If the device is external, make sure it’s connected and turned on.
The disc drive worked fine prior to the HD upgrade and OS update to Mt. Lion.

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??

MSI 787-G46 slowly boot and not load DVD drive after bios 1.6 beta2

I used bios version 1.5 without any problem. Now I loaded bios version 1.6 beta2 and when the PC starts at the lower right corner of the screen appeared the letters A2 for about 10 seconds, which was not. So I gave back 1.5 bios and the problem persists. I also found that it has the effect that the system does not load DVD drive.

Quote from: makac on 23-October-13, 12:40:18
In the new bios 1.6 beta 2 added item: Patch SATA driver detection issue and add item to control.
I do not know where it's set in bios, can not do this problem?
I was having similar issues with this bios after enabling RAID the hard drive BBS listed my drives multiple times and wont let you change the order, also trying to boot to the operating system would just display some EFI shell. I can only assume we will need to wait on another release for a fix.

No dvd drives after installing itunes

after i installed, dvd rom and burner could not be found, went pc managment, there, but pc will cant find them...any ideas?

hi gjmiles!
i think Moz is bang on with his/her diagnosis here. (we've been getting a flurry of reports recently of this problem hitting Packard Bell owners.)
if you'd like to doublecheck, head back into your Device Manager and expand the DVD drive entry. if you see a warning message there citing code 41, i'd go with the treatment outlined on the MS KB doc.
if you've got the time and the inclination, would you mind trying something for me before you apply the MS KB doc treatment? head into itunes and see if it will let you do a "help > run CD diagnostics ...", and post back with the results.
rationale ... my best guess at the moment as to why this is hitting Packard Bell owners is that there is software pre-installed on the PC which is leaving problematic filter entries in the registry. i don't know what software package that might be. but an itunes CD diagnostics displays people's filter entries. so it might help us get some idea about the causes of this particular problem ... or at least falsify my current best-guess hypothesis about the causes of this.

Can anyone help solve this problem

Exactly the same problems as many others with iTunes 10.5 and my Windows 7 32 bit laptop: An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT .type="win32", … HRESULT:0x800736FD. I followed the Apple instructions to completely uninstall earlier iTunes and all Apple applications and then tried to re-install iTunes 10.5. Numerous attempts. Still no success. Constantly goes through the install and then rolls back after failure.
By unzipping using WinRAR and installing each module separately it seems that the module that fails is the AppleApplicationSupport.msi
Finally I uninstalled everything again and reinstalled iTunes 10.4.1. This installed perfectly. So at least I still have iTunes.
I was able to install iTunes 10.5 on myWindows XP SP3 desktop.
I noticed with WinRAR that the AppleApplicationSupport.msi file with 10.5 is a completely different size to that with 10.4.1. This suggests to me a conflict between the latest AppleApplicationSupport.msi and Windows 7.

Everytime I install iTunes 10.7 and then reboot, I have no sound at all.

Scenario:
I install iTunes 10.7 and everything works great. Until I shut down my computer. When I turn my computer back on, there is no sound at all. No startup chimes from Windows 7, none of my music or video files have any sound. If I open iTunes and start playing a song, there is no sound, but also the song doesn't even start playing.
When this happened the first time, I tried everything I could to try and get sound back. I installed the newest versions of my sound drivers and also for the chipsets on the mb, and even the video card. Everything is up to date already. I tried unplugging all of the cables and plugging them back in. Nothing worked.
So I did a system restore to the only restore point available which was a couple of days before. Voila. Success. Everything is hunky dory. Oops, no iTunes. I'll just go reinstall that. Alrighty, now we're cooking. Time for bed, I'll just shut this down. Next morning...no sound again. I have repeated this process 4 times all weekend, trying to work out why it is happening and on the most recent one, the only thing I reinstalled was iTunes. And then I immediately rebooted. No sound. It would seem that iTunes is the culprit.
On the most recent attempt I made, there is strangely no restore point available that is not corrupted. I no longer have a process with which to reverse it.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can try in order to resolve this more permenantly?

Best post this in the MacPro forum.
Have fun.

I have the 64bit version of itunes. When I connect my iphone5 it says that I don't have the correct software and that I need to install itunes 64bit! And I can go no further! Help!

I have the 64bit version of itunes on windows 7. When I connect my iphone5 it says that I don't have the correct software and that I need to install itunes 64bit! And I can go no further! I've uninstalled and reinstalled but it makes no difference. I have no access to other computers so at the moment I don't have a backup for my iphone should anything go wrong.
Please Help!

Hello ekbowers,
It sounds like you have installed the 64 bit version of iTunes, but you continue to the get an error message that suggests to download the 64 bit version any time you connect your iPhone 5. I understand that you have already uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but sometimes you may need to uninstall additional components related to iTunes to completely remove it from your system.
I recommend following the steps in this article to completely uninstall iTunes:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Once you have completely uninstalled iTunes, you can download the 65 bit version of iTunes for Windows here:
iTunes 11.0.4 for Windows 64

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Try doing it in a WIndows Safe mode - Restart computer and hit F8 key right after your see BIOS check and choose "Safe mode with networking"
Do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
If that does not work, whilst in safe mode, download Free Malwarebyte software from CNET's Download.com. Install, update virus definition then perform a full scan. Remove if it did find some viruses or trojans. Restart computer.
Back to regular windows, do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
If that doesnot work, check to see if your Hard drive has errors or bad sectors
GO START BUTTON /COMPUTER, right mouse click OS (C:) and choose "Properties"
Choose "Tools" tab and under error checking, click "Check Now".
Make sure "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" is checked and click start.
Restart windows will perform the above task to fix errors This may take hours depends on how big is your Hard Drive
Good Luck!!.

I installed itunes 10.5 and now it will not recognize my phone-

I installed itunes 10.5 last week and now when I plug in my iPhone it will not recognize it. I've gone through all the recommended troubleshooting through Apple's site but it seems to make my computer worse. I re-installed itunes 3 times and it still will not find my phone when I plug it in. When I go to my device manager my "Apply Mobile Device USB Driver" has the little Yellow Triangle with the exclamation point it in- I checked for and updated driver but it says I have the most current one. I am running Windows Vista and itunes was working fine before I took the upgrade. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

I spent last week looking for a solution to that little yellow "!" needle haystack....
It is probably buried where nothing can touch or change it other than what I resorted to and would have saved time, clean install after I made sure to have two backup sets: Windows Easy Transfer plus Paragon clone OS and partitions to drive. Had to spend a full day reinstalling, updates, etc. Careful not to bring back any prefs or data that might be corrupt or wrong.
10.5 and iOS 5 on new iPod 4G works much better though and as they should and no issues like I had with AMS or other services or needing to restart first before launching iTunes.

I got a new computer. can i install itunes on it and use that instead of the one on my old computer?

Installing itunes 7.6 and quicktime

help - I have repeatedly tried to install itunes 7.6 and quicktime both individually and together. I repeatedly get an error message which says 'error creating directory QTsystem\Quicktime3GPP.Resources\ja.lproj' - I then get ererr 2330 and then I only get an option to quit the installation process which I have to click which then rolls back the process and installation is aborted.
I have itunes 7.2 and cannot buy anything from the itunes store as it requires itunes 7.6.
I have gone through the troubleshoot page in apple - done the msconfig steps etc and nothing has resolved. Have now deleted quicktime so unable to install again as the same error happens. tried deleting itunes 7.2 but don't want to fully delete evryting as I will lose all my libraries. Have installed latest windows service pack 3 and this hasn't resolved the issue. My computer is XP Home.
Any help to resolve this gratefully received.

2330s are most commonly associated with damage to program files (in your case it looks like something in one of the Japanese language localisation resources for your QuickTime).
Try running a chkdsk over the drive containing that directory. (Usually it's the C drive, but if you've got your QuickTime program files installed on a different drive, try running the chkdsk over that one.)

Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, does an install go through properly afterwards?

Snow Leopard cannot run on a PPC G5 Mac as it requires an Intel processor. Please confirm what Mac you have.
