Is iTunes 10 compatible with Vista?

I have been trying for 2 days to upgrade iTunes - the icon appears on desktop, computer detects the program, but it won't run and just continually updates and then give me a fatal error message! I have followed loads of advice on here but no luck.

Well the problem is sorted and I'm £65 worse off! I had to admit defeat in the end and take my laptop to a repair shop and apparently the MS Installer was corrupt, so everything had to be wiped off and started again. Great fun, but at least iTunes 10 is up and running!

    is itunes compatible with windows 8.1

    Bull-pucky the latest version is compatible!  I have spent the better part of a great Sat. downloading versions all the way back to 10.7 even deleting the Library.itl   file and starting fresh.  I am running Windows 8.1 / 64-bit. . . . .went into ITunes Store today and all of a sudden NO WORDS OR DESCRIPTIONS APPEAR, ONLY PICTURES OF ALBUMS.  How's one supposed to purchase anything when you cannot see what you're clicking on?  ITunes has long had issues with Win 8.1 which I'm aware of, but THEY have done something from their end (possibly with this new $7.99 per month change coming)  I'm assuming if I had a Mac this wouldn't be a problem, but this just stinks!  I purchase a ton of music and have 16 published stations, do they not want my $$ any longer?  Not negative towards you, sorry - can you help?

  • Is itunes compatible with windows 8

    Is itunes compatible with windows 8. I get 100% disk usage when downloading from itunes store.

    I have the same issue when downloading from itunes store. 100% Disk utilization and only writing ~2.5MB. This is a Windows 8-8.1/iTunes issue. On which side? who knows... But i don't have this issue when writing to my main drive, this is not a drive issue as i tried it on many drives and even on RAID 0. I hope they get this fixed, this is driving me nuts. I have a 50Mbps x 5Mbps Internet conneciton and its bottlenecking me at 25Mbps. Lame!

  • Is iTunes compatible with Windows Data Execution Prevention?

    Is Itunes compatible with Windows Data Execution Prevention?
    Every time I open iTunes, the Data Execution Prevention Closes it Down. We Have Windows XP

    I finally got it to work by making sure that I was running itunes as the "administrator".  Here's what I did: Right click on itunes......click on 'run as'.....click on "administrator", it'll ask for a password.  If you don't know it (like me) create a new account user called "Admin" with a password.  Everytime you want to use itunes do this.  I know it's a pain but so far so good.  Hope this helps.

  • Adobe 7 is not compatible with Vista, If you are not satisfied with that answer...

    Unfortunately for what I do for a living I can't use a mac, cannot WAIT till they do become compatible or I just switch professions!
    I have adobe 7Pro because I MUST create PDF documents for my business, however when my laptop crashed for the 3rd time in less than a year and I was NOT about to pay HP $400 to reboot it, instead I had fun and smashed it (like in Office Space) and went out and bought a new Sony Vaio.  This laptop is nice and all however now ALL new computers come with Gates newest form of a rip off, VISTA, which had so many issues they release a new update for it every day and professional companies wouldn't touch it, so they FORCED it on us small business owners and personal computer users, such CRAP! (If you notice all large corporations use XP, there is no Vista for large corps, there's a reason for that...
    The people that do NOT have the $ to keep upgrading and paying for FIX ITS online from some unknown who has figured a work around are forced to use this crap!!!  I'm BEYOND anoyed... ANYWHO I am installing my adobe 7pro and every time I open it I get asked to "ACTIVATE AGAIN" so I call in to get a NEW Activation code and a minute later it does it AGAIN... SOOO, I get Tech support and the IDIOT in India literally READS to me the following statements: 
    "Adobe 7 is not compatible with Vista" 
    I tell him, that's a lie because my friend uses it on vista.
    He proceeds to READ to me "If you are not satisfied with that answer, then acrobat no longer supports Adobe 7". WTF?!?!? If I am not SATISFIED with that answer!??! aparantly he was NOT supposed to read THAT part!!! Laughing I proceed to tell him to piss off and hang up on him because I am SOOO tired of all these damn AMERICAN companies outsourcing their customer service to some 3rd world country where they pay these people $5 a week and have them just read from a ******* script for your problems, that is NOT technical support, that's BULL CRAP!  I know 4 yr olds that read english better!!!
    I am sick and tired of it... I might just take advantage of the 14 day return policy and go to Apple and buy a mac next week and change my profession sooner than I had planned JUST TO AVOID USING THIS CRAP!!! ADOBE YOU SUCK!!! Microsoft SUCKS!!!
    If you run into this problem do what I am doing, go to Apple and buy a mac, we need to stand up against all this and pay attention to the COMMERCIALS that are VERY TRUE and drop Microsoft, IBM, anything Gates related and stop using their products!!!

    Thanks Mike!
    I'm just so frustrated, its bad enough my other laptop wasn't even 2 yrs old
    yet and I've spent $800 to have it fixed twice already, this 3rd time I was
    DONE... so I moved onto Sony, but this Vista just is making my life a living
    hell, I just spent a fortune on the laptop, and now I have to buy Adobe 9
    when my adobe 7 isn't even 2 yrs old... ugh... its just very frustrating and
    nerve racking and is costing more than I make in a week in this business
    (real estate processing)... I should sell Microsoft for a living, I'd be a
    millionaire!
    My husband's Mac has been through hell and back physically, is 5 yrs old and
    we've never had to take it in for any upgrades or issues, its SO easy to
    use... why can't Microsoft be the same?!?!
    Thanks for your input and for being understanding of my frustration, I bet
    you see those often! LOL

  • Nokia software updater compatible with Vista

    I have Vista, the software updater is not compatible with Vista. What can I do?

    Vista support was withdrawn due to compatibility problems. Lucky for you a version for vista users was released yesterday.

  • Illustrator CS3 not compatible with Vista

    I downloaded the trial version of Illustrator CS3 because my previous program - Freehand, is not compatible with Vista. The Adobe site stated that Illustrator was capable of importing and editing Freehand files so I gave it a try.
    Well, it does import the files with only a few minor font issues. BUT, when you try to SAVE or EXPORT it returns the error message: "can't save illustration". In other words, you can import, work, design, etc. but when it comes time to save or export your work, you can't. So the program is completely worthless.
    Adobe should have made this bug or conflict clear before releasing the product with Vista compatibility and stating that it could import Freehand 9 files. What good is importing the files if you can't save them after making the changes?
    I would caution anybody to wait until there is a patch or at least try the trial version before spending a lot of time and money on a program, only to find you can not save or export your work!

    >I finished editing a project in 2.0 and installed CS3 to finish. Now when I try to render the project it crashes and then I when I restart all of my media is unlinked so I relink save, crash, repeat forever. I guess I need to reinstll 2.0 this CS crap isn't working for me.
    I had a similar problem. I started a 60-minute documentary under Premiere 6.5 and finished it in Pro 2.0. Nightmares!
    I thus recommend starting and finishing each project in one version. I also recommend that when you get a version of Premiere running well on a particular system and you want to upgrade, you build an entirely new system and upgrade on THAT sys. Keep the old system because you have possibly scores or hundreds of hours into getting it to work perfectly. Sell these old systems off as turn-key systems to editors that are less experienced and don't need the power (yet). I have been doing this and it works out well. I am also developing a chain of trainees who will someday be able to COMPLETELY TAKE OVER MY EDITING POST AND THUS RELEASE ME FROM THIS HELL (so I can go back to producing and directing).

  • Which version of Adobe Acrobat Pro is compatible with Vista operating system? how to buy it?

    I tried to install Acrobat Pro XI on my laptop; but it failed to install because I have Vista operating system. Am I dead in the water, or is there a way to install an earlier version on my machine?

    Hi nirbhay,
    You can purchase Acrobat Pro subscription and install it on Vista OS.
    Please check : Tech specs | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
    The earlier versions Acrobat 9 and 10 are compatible with Vista but they are no longer available for purchase.

  • Is itunes compatible with windows surface?

    Is itunes compatible with the new windows surface tablet?
    Have tried to download it, it ran but then after the re-start itunes was nowhere to be seen

    @Jonellis
    I am certainly no computer expert and purchased the Microsoft Surface Tablet when it first became available in Australia. Whilst it is great for the MS packages for my work, and the attachable keyboard is handy, the fact that itunes is not compatible means I can't have my music or movies etc when I travel - which is what I wanted it for.
    You also have to re-purchase apps and games through microsoft which I found cumbersome. I believe the newer version - Surface Pro 2 - however is itunes compatible.
    In retrospect I would have been better of getting a mini lap top running windows such as the Dell Inspiron Mini, the HP 2133 Mini-Note PC, the Acer Aspire orthe Asus Eee PC 1000

  • Cs3 and cs4 web standard compatible with vista home basic?

    Are Adobe CS3 and CS4 Web Standard compatible with Vista Home Basic 32bit?
    I only see Windows Vista Home Premium / Vista Business / Vista Enterprise / Vista Ultimate / XP listed as compatible.
    Many thanks.

    Vista didn't exist when CS3 was released and as such, there is no official statement regard compatibility of CS3 with Vista Home Basic.
    For CS4, we are very explicit. CS4 is not at all supported for Vista Home Basic (there are a number of networking and service support components that Microsoft leaves out of their Home Basic versions).

  • What version is compatible with Vista?

    What verion of Adobe Reader is compatible with Vista?

    If you read the Release Notes for 10.x carefully, you will find that the only Windows version that was dropped from support is Windowx XP (in 10.1.12).  Vista is still fully supported.
    Regarding the "crapware": there are a few good alternate PDF viewers out there; the piece of software that you mentioned is not one of them.
    I have tested that software since version 1.0, and each time they sneaked spyware onto my system.  In the first version they didn't even bother to mention it.  In version 2 they gave the user a choice, but installed the spyware anyway, without the possibility to uninstall.  I gave up testing that software after version 4.
    So it's you that needs to use a very good antivirus product.  (Well, everybody should, actually.)

  • Is itunes compatible with a 32bit windows laptop running Windows 8.1?

    is itunes compatible with a 32bit operating system x64 processor laptop, running Windows 8.1? 

    Should be... what happens when you try installing it? I would imagine that you want the 32-bit installer. The application itself is 32-bit but there is a 64-bit installer for 64-bit OS.
