ISO: solution for these itunes vs windows vista home premium problems?

1.Every time I start itunes, it tells me that there are registry entries missing for burning a disk and something else that escapes my immediate memory. However, it suggests reinstalling itunes and I've done that many times without the problem going away.
2. I use a sony laptop with vista and the latest itunes. The itunes task bar is not showing up.
3. When I go to those apple.com/itunes ads for free music, movie trailers, etc and then the itunes store redirector pops up, it always tells me that it can't find itunes, even when it is running.
4. Recently, itunes began to display the phrase "Disc Recording not found..."

Have you worked through the following document in the course of your troubleshooting to date?

I can't synchronize my iPod's with my iTunes software (Windows Vista Home Premium) due to problems with the access authorization / rights for this operation

Hi there,
I'd like to ask you something:
I'm trying to synchronize all my iPod's (I have as many as 4 iPods: 2 iPod touch a 8 GB each and 2 iPod classic a 160 GB each) with my iTunes software (Version 11.3.1 which is installed on a Windows PC (Windows Vista Home Premium)). Unfortunately, the iTunes software refuses to run the command "synchronize with the iPod connected" regarding each and every iPod I have. iTunes just declares:
Synchronizing is impossible because I wouldn't hold the access authorization / rights for this operation.
I uploaded the songs at issue to my iTunes folder from CD's (all songs are in AAC format now).
What is this access authorization, why was something like that invented and what can I do to get it?
How do I have to proceed in detail?
What would it cost?
I am brand new here and have never ever made a post in any support community anywhere in the world in my life. Well, and I am not excessively knowledgeable about the particular computer or mac language but I know the very basics or can find out about them.
Anyways - can you help me please?
If you can't help me, who can do so?
It would be nice if you could answer me as soon as possible!
Thank you guys

Yes, others have experienced the problem, a simple search of the forums would have revealed that and the simple solution.
Termporarily disable any security software on the computer.

Can't use iTunes with Windows Vista Home Premium

I have deleted and reinstalled so many times, so i tried the compatibility settings and set it to work for Windows XP(Service Pack 2) with 256 colours. It works, but it messes up all my colours.
Help, please.
(My brother got iTunes working on his Windows Vista Home Premium laptop, but it won't work for the desktop computer.)

i think the file name quicktime.msi is causing the problem
also forgot to add that installation stops when the status turns to computing space requirements

Conflicts between Itunes and Windows Vista Home Premium Edition

I am looking to purchase a new pc with Windows Vista. What are some possible problems I could have with Itunes?

I have a new Windows Vista Home premium laptop and am NOT able to use the latest version of iTunes. Hopefully by the time you get your new computer, Apple will have taken the time to fix the garbage program that they are passing off as the latest version of iTunes.

Installation of itunes in windows vista home premium

I have tried several times in vain to download the latest version of i Tunes ( 7.6) on my computer. The installation apparently goes through properly but when i try to open itunes I recieve an itunes has stopped working dialogue box and the descripton generally is that an data execution program has prevented itunes from opening. I have tried clearing old downloads and reloading, I have tried disabeling conflicting programs ( not sure which ones will be conflicting) I have tried allowing itunes and quick time through the sytem performance file etc. I am frustrated and ready to throw my nano away. thanks for any help

I didn't realize Vista Home Premium wasn't supported, so I went ahead and installed Oracle 10g R2 standard edition and then personal edition on 64-bit Vista Home Premium. The only problem I've had is that the DB Console doesn't work, which is why I came to this forum and thread. All I get is a blank page with a few chicken scratches, but everything else has been working so far. I've had to revert to command line SQL Plus, and I just imported a couple million rows from an export done on a Solaris server, so go figure. Obviously I'm not using it for a production database, but for my purposes so far it's done OK.

Itunes and Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit

I just purchased a HP TouchSmart with Vista Home Premium 64bit system.I have itunes loaded but after about 10 min. after i connect my ipod to it it locks up the computer completely. I have tried itunes on 2 identical computers and got the same results.
I also did a restore on the ipod and it still does the same thing. Any help will be appreciated.bobwire

Just an update, though it's more of a (non) update.
I'm not sure how but I managed to get it working.
After doing the things mentioned above, I tried a system restore but that didn't work and seemed to throw more error messages my way. Then I ran AppleSoftewareUpdater.exe and it gave me red X errors with no details, I assumed the install failed completely.
Following this, I manually downloaded and tried to install the latest version again but it said iTunes was already installed. At this point I'm far past annoyed.
So, I click on iTunes and now everything works.
I wish I knew what actually fixed the problem so others could benefit if they're experiencing the same thing....hence why I say, (non)-update.
Anyways,
Take care Everyone

Starting iTunes from a Desktop shortcut in Windows Vista Home Premium

Is anyone else having problems starting iTunes in Windows Vista Home Premium?
I have to attempt several times to get iTunes to start - using the Desktop shortcut, the listing in the start list and even the listing in the 'All Programs' list.
Once again I am compelled/induced to make a complaint about the effectiveness of iTunes 'Support' ... but I could be just a little redundant - after all how can one complain about something that does not exist???

please, help me..

Windows vista home premium iTunes window size doesn't fit properly

I am using windows vista home premium. In iTunes when I maximize the iTunes window, it doesn't fit the screen, it is a little too big and I cannot see the side scroll bar. To fix it, I have to restore the window, manually modify the size and the maximize it. Is there a fix to this? Or is an unknown little bug?

Have you checked the HP Website and Microsoft Support websites to see if they have any solutions to your problem? Since there could be multiple things causing this, I would check at the places I mentioned first and see if their knowledge base contains an answer.

Cannot open iTunes 8 with Windows Vista Home Premium

Hopefully someone here can help me with my problem. I have a new Ipod Touch that needs itunes 8 to work. I have a new HP PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. The problem I'm having is: itunes & quicktime will download successfully onto my computer, but after download will not open. I receive the error message "itunes has stopped working...A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I have tried to open them from desktop & from programs ...will not work. I was using itunes 7 with no problems, but after upgrade to the new version (itunes 8) I started having this problem. Here are a few of the things I have tried so far with help from just about every tech support I could find: uninstall & reinstall itunes (tried this several times..didn't help, but itunes installs successfully each time)...try installing quicktime & itunes separately (didn't help)..disable firewall & virus protection (didn't help)...turn off Data Execution Prevention (DEP) (didn't help)...tried saving software to discs & installing itunes that way (didn't help)...I have updated all of my software including windows vista...I've run virus checks...& pretty much run checks on anything else I could find. I occasionally get the same error message when I try to open Rhapsody, but not every time. I'm thinking of using my backup discs & restoring my computer to factory settings. To do that would be a last resort, but I am getting pretty close to desperate. Does anyone think restoring it would help? If anyone has any ideas for me to try I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much.

You need to to check to see if your Quicktime works normally. Itunes will not work if QUicktime doesn't.
If Quicktime doesn't work, describe what happens with any error message in full.
Go to your control panel and try to start QUicktime preferences. In XP you need to be in classic view to see it, I am not sure about Vista.
Give the full text of any error message.
Have you installed any of the following:
ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar
If so uninstall them, they are bad news for Quicktime.
Report back with your results.
If Quicktime is OK have you seen the Apple troubleshooting article for launch failure, I guess you have probably done quite a bit of it anyway, but is worth going through it systematically:

I have a problem with the iTunes Store, I have an ipod and an iphone 2. I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 2007, entering into iTunes Store on the main screen I get only AppStore, Podcast and iTunes U. In my screen I get only ipad2 Podcast, iTunes U Downloads. My problem is I can not access any application to download music, videos, books, etc..
ITunes will be installed wrong or what should I do to activate these options?

Go to the front page of the Store, and click Change Country. Make sure it is set to the country where you actually are.
Then you will be able to see everything that is for sale in your country, which, depending where you live, might or might not include music.

I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.
