Intermittent Sleep problems on all Windows versions I have tried
Macbook Pro 5,1. Running Bootcamp 2.1. Machine will enter sleep mode successfully a few times (1-4 times) and then suddenly will not. Sleep light glows constantly and opening the lid shows a black screen.
Brightness controls work (can see the screen lightening) and volume keys work (here 'pop' noise increasing and decreasing).
I have tried Windows Vista 32/64 and Windows 7 32/64. I have installed updated drivers for NVidia card, Wireless Card, nForce drivers. I have tried disabling all the Apple services. I have made sure no devices are able to bring the machine out of sleep. I have ensured that the Windows Media Service cannot prevent the machine from going to sleep.
Apple support is (muffled scream) useless. All I get is that this is a Windows problem and not supported. (Why do they say that you can run Windows on the Macbook Pro advertisement then?). I have read a posts from other users with the same problem but none of them have resolutions.
Please help. It's the last step I need to make this thing usable. Can't return it, can't get it fixed. Can't get any help Apple and MS won't touch it. Otherwise, I'll swap this for a Dell of similar speed in a second. Any takers?
Never saw a Macbook Pro;
You Can Google search "Macbook PRO"Windows+sleepfix
Copy paste that into the search & Check various yourself
This one received positive response but seems on the Mac side.

The fix for this problem can be found in the NETWORK panel of System Preferences. Click on the Ethernet Connection
If this service was already marked INACTIVE simply switch it back to MAKE SERVICE ACTIVE and then hit apply.
If it was already set to active then Click on MAKE SERVICE INACTIVE then hit apply.
Now restart your computer. After the restart go back to this same screen and click on MAKE SERVICE ACTIVE, now make sure to hit apply.
This will fix the sleep problems on a Macbook running 10.5.7. Interestingly it also fixes the sleep problems with a Macbook pro running 10.6 Snow leopard.

Just found that disabling the "wake-on sleep" option of my mouse, network and modem seems to fix the problem.
It may just be that my mouse or some other device tries to wake up the PC while it is going to sleep, and the computer gets all confused.
I've been using hibernate as well from the time I first got my macbook. It's really nice to be able to hibernate, boot into OS X, then shutdown OS X and resume the Windows session without having to go through the whole boot process. It's too bad hibernating OS X forces you to wake up in OS X and you can't choose which OS to resume.
Turning off AirPort usually will allow the MBP to sleep, but not always. In those cases, sometimes I have to try two or three times to put it to sleep -- and for whatever reason, it typically takes 30-60 seconds after disconnecting from the wireless connection before it will sleep. (And, yes, I have already disabled SafeSleep.)
For Windows side,from me: a)check all power settings that refer to sleep/disable, this includes doing it at device/adapter level; if you open network conections from C. Panel, right click active adapter(LocalAreaConn.), select properties,then configure "connect Using" you'll see variable power setting.You can see this variable setting in Device Manager as well.

I was recently prompted to update my Itunes player to the latest version. I'm using Windows Vista. I was left with an error message MSVCR80.dll and consequently no new update. I uninstalled the old version and have tried to reinstall manually several times. No luck. Consequently I have no player.
Any ideas for a fix?Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I am running windows xp and have tried chnaging the resolution to 1024 x 768 or highre and am still finding that not all the options on i tunes are displayed on my pc. I have also tried unistalling and reinstalling the software but to no avail. At present all the left hand tabs are missing and the info and summary tabs are missing which means i cannot sync etc
You'll probably have more luck getting help if you ask in the iTunes for Windows forum rather than here in the iTunes for Mac forum. If, however, you have iTunes 11, many people haven't yet figured out the new default interface in iTunes 11. To get to the iPad information so you can sync, click the iPad button in the header bar at the upper-right:
Or go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and the interface will then look substantially like it did in earlier versions. If you don't see the menus, go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":

My computer is saying it can't find the file 'iTunes64.msi' when I try to update or redownload iTunes how do I fix this? I've tried just about everything I can think of. I am using a dell laptop running windows 7 and have tried changing the file location to run the update in all of my iTunes files as well as when I've tried reinstalling it.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

I have windows 7 and have tried the troubleshooting steps but am still unable to connect to the itunes store yet my PC is connected to the internet, it just keeps looking like its trying to access the store
I have the same problem but the solution Wendyz99 did has not been successful for me. Part of the itunes store loads on the right side where the tabs for Quick Links and Top Charts are but the center section of the page is white. Also if I click on a song that is in the top chart area it will take me to the page but I'm not able to purchase the song or preview the song.
I feel I have tried all the solutions I can find on line and even had conversations with apple tech with no help.
I have down loaded the Autoruns program and in the winstock providers I have Bonjour and Microsoft Windows Live ID Namespace Provider. I have removed Windows Live and this still does not resolve the problem. I am at a complete loss. I am running windows 7, 32bit. Someone please help! -

I am running Windows 7 and have tried to install iCloud. No matter what instructions I follow, I still get the error message "This Apple ID is valed but is not an iCloud account." How can I resolved this?
I've tried both. First, I tried on my pc, where iTunes had installed iCloud when it last updated. I have iTunes installed on this computer (and on my iPad and iPhone), but that wasn't the issue.
So I went online, thinking I needed a separate iCloud Apple ID, but it prompted me for my current Apple ID and gave me the message about my ID being "valid" but not an iCloud account," which, lol, was what it had asked me to do in order to create one. I checked, and at least one other user is having the same issue. I'll attempt to copy/paste the Support request url: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4430653?tstart=0
Thank you for any help you can give.

I have an iMac 5.1 which is running OSx10.5.8 - it runs very slowly and I can't find if there is a particular problem. In the process, I have tried to install 10.6 [I have a new iMac] and the 5.1 won't accept the install discs.
As you have discovered... you cannot use the install discs from another Mac...

Interesting problem for all students and programmers Have a look!
Hello. This is a very interesting problem for all programmers and students. I have my spalsh screen class which displays a splash when run from the main method in the same class. However when run from another class( in my case from my login class, when user name and password is validated) I create an instance of the class and show it. But the image in the splash is not shown. Only a squared white background is visible!!!.
I am sending the two classes
Can u tell me why and propose a solution. Thanks.

Use tcode XK99 for vendor mass change, select the Fax no field. You have to take note that this changes will be only 1 fax number for all vendors.
