ITune dowmload on Vista problems. AVFoundationcf.dll - error 7 (windows error 126) and iTunes helper not instlalled properly.

I've downloaded, redownloaded, uninstalled ,installed, ran sfc/scannow.  Nothing is working - am I missing something so simple that I'm just not seeing it?
I have Windows Vista on a dell - am I really this stupid?

I've been to the link above.  I did everything that was recommended.  I've deleted all Apple products from my computer and re-installed.  I've shut off my firewall & anti-virus.  I've tried usind IE, Google Chrome & Firefox and I keep getting the same error.  Please - why can't I install iTunes?

  • I just moved my itunes library from a win 7 computer to a win 8.1 computer. Getting an error message "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. Can't play CDs or get audio file from web!

    Help! I just moved my itunes library from a Win 7 computer to a new Win 8.1 computer following the instructions on the itunes website. Everything is good except I'm getting an error message on the Win 8 computer if I try to play a CD or get an audio file off of the internet. I get an error message that says "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. I don't know where to look for or fix the audio configuration on the win 8 computer. As far as I can tell the iTunes configuration looks the same as on the other computers in the house. At this point I don't dare plug my ipod touch into the Win 8 computer for fear it will get messed up.

    I have the same problem and I know that it is due to my PCI Audio driver not being compatible with WIndows 8.1.
    iTunes isn't the only program that can't direct sound to the built-in speakers anymore. The obvious solution would be to update the drivers, but unfortunately Dell does not provide an updated driver for my model, so I am stuck with that.
    However, saying that, only my laptop speakers are affected by this. I can use sound fine on applications where I can choose the output device and direct sound to the head phones, but for some reason iTunes does not let you choose the audio device manually.
    To listen to music I imported the iTunes Library in Windows Media Player and changed the audio output using the following instructions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11ba
    However, I would also like to rent movie's from iTunes, 
    Would be great if iTunes would let you choose the output device, too, like most other applications using sound  from Skype to Windows Media Player,...

  • Error message after upgrade to iTunes 11: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."  At this point my PC running XP loses all audio.

    Several attempts to upgrade to iTunes 11 have failed.  After an upgrade to 11 the error message reads: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."  At this point--after the upgrade to iTunes 11--my PC running Windows XP loses audio playback for all functions--in iTunes, in the browser and the volume icon disappears from the System Tray.  Only by removing iTunes 11, and then using System Restore to turn back the OS settings can I return the PC to normal functioning.
    I did that.  I reinstalled iTunes 10.5.  Everything seemed fine, but when I try to plug in and copy a CD to my iPhone 4S an error message reads roughly: 'iPhone 4S requires iTunes 10.5 or higher to work.'
    What might be the problem with my audio configuration?
    Why doesn't my iPhone 4S work with iTunes 10.5?  It used to work with iTunes 10.5.
    Please advise.

  • When I go to open Itunes I get a message that says "Itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly.

    When I go to open Itunes, I get a message saying "Itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not work properly. I've tried closing and re-opening Itunes but it still comes up. I've also tried removing quicktime, repairing Itunes and restarting my computer after that. It still says the same thing. I've also tried reinstalling Itunes as well.

  • This message recently popped up on my PC - "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/video playback may not operate properly." What does this mean and how to fix ??

    Hi Everyone - recently this message popped up on my PC, when I was trying to import cd's into the iTunes library and then onto my iPod - "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/video playback may not operate properly." Can anyone tell me what this means and how to fix it ?? I am not fantastically PC savvy, so any information explained fully and all steps to follow to get my music playing again would be great !! Thanks, SC

    Hi B, thanks so much for helping me troubleshoot !!
    Ok, so when I went in to check the Audio tab of the Sounds and Audio Device Properties, I found the following:-
    * Sound Playback Default Device = No Playback Devices.
    * Sound Recording Default Device = No Playback Devices.
    * MIDI Music Playback Default Device = No MIDI Playback Devices.
    All text in this drop-down box were light grey, and therefore unable to be selected or altered.
    I also tried playing a cd through Windows Media player, to see if I could get sound a different way. When I put the cd in and clicked on Play, the following message appeared, "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There may not be a sound device installed on your PC, it may be in use by another program, or it may not be functoning properly."
    Any ideas ? I had sound previously, but then a work colleague re-built the PC to add more space to the hard drive, and since then, no sound. I know this may now not just be an iTunes issue, but I would appreciate any assistance you can offer.
    Thanks again,
    Shell

  • When I open Itunes on my PC it says, Itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/video playback may not operate properly

    When I open Itunes on my PC it says, Itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/video playback may not operate properly. I removed some unused programs from my pc before this happened and I think I may have removed something I shouldn't have.

    I had this same problem and my sixteen year old figured it out. Since the Windows PC running iTunes (which supports a housefull of AppleTVs) was running in a closet, he suspected it was due to having no speakers attached.
    Sure enough, when I went into control panel to look at my sound settings, I noticed something I had missed previously. There was a red mark on the device. I took his advice and plugged in some earphones to the speaker jack and, wallah, the red mark turned green and the iTunes warning never popped up again.

  • I just upgraded to itunes 64 bit 12.1.1.4 on Windows 8.1 and it does not recognize my devices

    ITunes was working fine but it kept prompting me to upgrade which I did. After the upgrade it took a very long time to identify my iPod classic, but it finally did and I was able to download one song I had purchased. I have 3 iPods. I then put in my second iPod and iTunes could not find it. I researched the options from Jason via his very good link but the suggestions do not work. Windows sees the iPod (all of them just fine) the cables are good, (I used them on another computer running iTunes under windows XP and they recognize the ipods with no problem. The Apple Mobile  Device shows up fine under USB controller and the ipods show up under Portable devices. After much back and forth, restarting, powering off both iPod and PC, iTunes still will not recognize the old ipod, but once - it said -" It did recognize that an ipod was connected but it could not verify the identity". It asked me to dis-connect, power off and try again and if the problem persist to call tech support. I discontented and powered off and tried again and it will not see any ipod. In all of this Windows 8.1 sees the ipod just fine. I decided to uninstall the new update and go back to the old one. I uninstalled iTunes and attempted to install my original ITunes which is itunes64bit.exe dated 1/25/2015, but now the installer will not work - it goes to a screen that says "ITunes Installer Completed - Errors occurred during installation before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To complete the installation run the installer again". I have tried 4 times each time with the same message and no indication o f the error. I would like to call tech support but find it hard to pay $29 to call them about an upgrade Apple basically forced me to take that has created this problem. I am not sure what my next step should be - I have 3 ipod and 2 ipad, and right now no working iTunes. It used to work, even up to a few a hours ago but once I took that upgrade from ****, it has not worked since.

    The fix was to completely remove all Apple Software following guides in previous posts.
    Then download and re-install latest iTunes 64-bit, making sure to Run As Administrator.
    This fixed it. Now the next thing seems to be that as I move from one device to another to close and restart iTunes between each one. Treat it gently. It seems to break easily and a lot.

  • TS1362 what happened?  itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration.... playback may not operate properly.

    I run windows 7 and have used iTunes recently to listen to internet radio and iPod tracks (when loaded).  recently, I get the error message about the problem with my audio configuration every time I launch iTunes.  sure enough, nothing plays, yet internet audio/video clips play fine, so this is a specific problem with iTunes.  to address this, I have already
    1. removed and reinstalled iTunes using the add/remove programs windows
    2.  uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime
    3.  updated my Windows audio device drivers
    4.  restarted the Windows audio and management something under
    i don't know what i'm doing wrong or why the problem is sudden.  but nothing will play from iTunes

    I'm having the same problem.  I have downloaded Itunes again but still the same problem.

  • When downloading 10.5.2 version of itunes to Microsoft Vista 32 bit it gets to 68% downloaded and hangs then eventuall times out.  No error msg given.  What is it waiting for?

    When downloading 10.5.2 version of itunes to Microsoft Vista 32 bit it gets to 68% downloaded and hangs then eventuall times out.  No error msg given.  What is it waiting for?

    Finally got it working, I had to delete two solitary files in an iTunes folder.
    C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info
    Delete the only two files that are in this folder. Please note that it is a hidden folder.
    After they have been deleted, iTunes should work (it did for me)
    This may not work if your iTunes.exe process (viewable with task manager) turns off after the license agreement. I solved that problem by updating quicktime.
    iTunes 10.5.2 doesn't update quicktime like all the previous installers did.

  • I  have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7  PC. For several years, I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months

    I  have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7  PC. For several years,
    I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months ago I decided to use Mobile Me. However, there were problems with duplication of calendars and then “rogue events” – which could not be deleted – even if deleted on Outlook and on the iPhone (or both at the same time) – they would just reappear after the next synchronisation.  All other synchronisation areas (eg Contacts, Notes etc) work fine.
    I have looked for help through the Apple Support Community and tried many things.  I have repaired my Outlook. I have repaired my .pst file in Windows. I have re-installed the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I have re-installed the firmware on my iPhone. I have tried many permutations on my iPhone. I have closed down all Mobile Me functions on the iPhone. I have spent upwards of 24 hours trying to solve this problem.
    What am I left with? Outlook works seamlessly on my PC. My iPhone calendar now has no events from  my calendar, but does not synchronise through iTunes. Nor does it send events initiated on the iPhone to the Outlook. I am at the point of abandoning iPhones and iPads altogether.  I need to have a properly synchronising calendar on my phone.  Do you have any suggestions?

    In the control panel goto the "Lenovo - Power Manager" and click the battery tab, there is a maintenance button in there that will let you change the charging profile for your battery.   (from memory, so exact wording may be off)
     The lower the numbers you use there, the longer the battery *should* last.    These batteries degrade faster at higher charge levels, however storing them at too low of levels is also not good for them... I've read that 40% is optimal, but just not realistic if you use your computer.
