ITunes 10.4 64-bit?

The release notes say iTunes 10.4 is 64-bit, but it's not labeled as such in Activity Monitor.  It just shows up as a regular Intel application.  Any idea why this might be?  I'm still on Snow Leopard, but most of my apps are 64-bit anyway.

  • I cannot install iTunes 10.2 64 bit on Windows 7 Home Premium

    I'm able to download the iTunes 10.2 64 bit program without any issue. However, when I try to intall the program Windows installer issues error message: "This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package”.
    I have tried to open 'itunes64bit.exe' as the Administrator but this still doesn't work!
    I’ve scanned a Microsoft forum for iTunes download/installation problems. Most answers on the forum refer to a system32 error appearing when they attempt to install itunes64bit.exe on Vista or Windows 7.
    One member had a solution whereby they downloaded a program from Orca to increase Windows Installer’s capability and another to help install iTunes.
    The problem is that Windows Installer will not install these downloaded programs either!
    I’ve followed tech advice to change the Windows Installer setting from ‘Service Status’ stopped to ‘Service Status’ started and applied/ok’d changes. However, as soon as I try to install a non-windows program it automatically defaults to the ‘stopped’ setting and issues the error message about not being able to verify the package being installed.
    I followed the steps to unregister and reregister Windows Installer too, also to no avail.
    You’re probably thinking this sounds like an administrator issue. However, I’m the only user and Windows 7 is registered to me – which should make me the only administrator.

    Hi Lee,
    "You’re probably thinking this sounds like an administrator issue. However, I’m the only user and Windows 7 is registered to me – which should make me the only administrator."
    You are correct but to a point.  I thought so too, however, like you, I am "second in command"...under myself. 
    I was in the same situation and tried others' successful workarounds.  Nope.  Actually, an ongoing frustration for a few months to no avail...until I came across this link, http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_programs/ this-installation-package-could-not-be-opened/40c3cf33-b155-4dc7-b21e-ca5acce105 f3.  It shows you how to access the Administrator login, literally.  It worked for me. 
    This is from a Microsoft support page (SJ has probably been alerted, so I don't have much time, LOL).  I did not want to hit that "final" option and reinstall Win 7.  The first time was trying enough and I was about to give in.  
    " I’ve scanned a Microsoft forum for iTunes download/installation problems. Most answers on the forum refer to a system32 error appearing when they attempt to install itunes64bit.exe on Vista or Windows 7."
    I was opposite on this one.  What led me to think it wasn't the above was seeing this user " ` " , also known as Accent grave.  The Users first file is labeled " ` " and has a little gold lock on it.  When I scanned Task Manager, under Processes Tab, the User Name column showed " ` " attached to certain processes.  I knew it was me, but did not realize it was the Alpha me 
    I cannot say if the system automatically did this or I or Alpha (I'm blaming Alpha).  If there is a way to change this I do not know, and if I should.  Either way, I will do some more research and pray another personality isn't isn't lurking about
    Hope this helps you.

  • Problem with itunes and windos 64 bit

    Firtst of all hello i am from greece sory if i have difficult to explain something but i try.I have problem to find and work correct itunes for windows xp 64bit i try a lot of different i tunes new and older versions but i have problem nother install and work correct please help me do yoy have a version who work in xp 64bit thanks

    Let's say this again to make sure it is clear (there is obviously a language barrier here): there is no version of ITunes for the 64-bit version of Windows XP. Users have had some limited success in forcing the version iTunes that is intended for the Windows Vista 64-bit onto Windows XP, but it is not easy and does not always work.
    If you are unable to make it work, you will not be able to run iTunes unless you are willing to go back to the 32-bit version of Windows XP or to upgrade to Vista or Windows 7.
    Regards.

  • Installing iTunes on Vista 64-bit

    *Looking for 64-bit support from Apple*
    I'm running the 64-bit version of Windows and was disappointed to find out that Apple does not support it (see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301 ). I tried to install iTunes anyway and the installation failed. This forum didn't provide any initial solutions that I could find so now that I've figured it out I thought I would post a solution for those that come looking.
    *How do I know if I have the 64-bit version of Vista?*
    Press the windows key and the Pause/Break key at the same time (the pause/break key is normally in the upper right corner of the keyboard). On the window that appears look for the label "System Type." next to it you will see text indicating whether you have a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Vista.
    *What Will happen if I try to install Vista?*
    You experience may varry, but when I tried the installation ran for a while and ended with a message saying Quicktime could not be installed. I checked the Programs menu and iTunes was not listed after this failure.
    *How do I successfully install iTunes on a 64-bit edition of Vista?*
    When you download iTunes select the option to save the installation instead of running it immediatly. After the download completes right-click on the installation and select properties. Under the "Compatibility" tab check the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for." Ensure that "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" is selected. Also check the box that says "Run this program as an administrator." Click on okay and the install iTunes.
    *Will this also work for XP 64-bit edition?*
    I don't know.
    *I've successfully installed iTunes on my 64-bit machine. Can I use it to activate my iPhone?*
    No.
    If you try to activate your iPhone you will receive a message saying "Please connect iPhone to a computer running a 32-bit version of Windows XP (SP2) or Windows Vista."
    *What happens if I set iTunes to run in Compatibility mode*
    iTunes will detect that it is running in a compatibility mode and suggest that you turn the mode off and restart iTunes. Since it recognizes that it is running on a 64-bit machine it will still refuse to activate an iPhone. Bummer.
    *If I activate my iPhone on another machine then can i transfer content to it on Vista 64-bit edition?*
    Nope. iTunes will instruct you to connect the phone to a 32-bit machine.

    Yes the forum has been misbehaving recently hence my double post. Ther should be an edit button, but it is only present for a few minute.
    The error you are getting has certainly been associated with a failure of Windows updates, but I don't know if the one you mention is an issue.
    The microsoft link to the update problem is;
    http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/ca7d15d7-8ee3-4993-bd01-753d adc904121033.mspx
    That's about as far as I can go with this I am afraid.

  • I have 32 bit iTunes on a 64 bit Windows. Can't install 64 bit because the 32 bit will not uninstall (or run).

    I have 32 bit itunes on a 64 bit Windows. Can't install 64 bit itunes because the 32 bit willl not uninstall.

    Excellent news.
    That one can sometimes hit people if they've used the PC Mover utility to transfer a 32-bit iTunes program onto a 64-bit system. Similar issues can arise if a 32-bit Bonjour or 32-bit AMDS get transfered across to a 64-bit system by PC Mover, so it might pay to keep a weather eye out for that (if you've used PC Mover).

  • ITunes for Windows 64-bit (oops, doesn't install under XPx64)

    Just as the subject states, whenever I try to install iTunes 7.6 64-bit, it declares that I must have Windows Vista in order to install this. If it's not supposed to work for XP x64, then why post that on the download page? Hopefully if you were trying to be nice and provide us with an XPx64 copy, this trouble will be corrected sometime down the road?
    Thanks in advance.

    The 64 bit version of iTunes will not install on my machine either. The setup program only checks for Vista 64 and if its not then it won't allow you to install. If there's no major difference in how iTunes works under XP and Vista then It seems like all it take is for the setup program to check for Windows XP x64 then allow iTunes to install.
    P.S. I've installed the 32 bit version of iTunes on XP x64. It works but is not stable; It already crashed twice.

  • Can't install itunes on windows 64 bit system

    I tried to install itunes on my 64 bit machine, but with verson 6.0.5, it says this software doesnt support 64 bit systems. I tried to install an earlier version i think its 6.0.4.2 not sure, but it does install on my computer. When I try to open the program and quicktime, I get error box saying the program had a problem and couldn't open. Is there anyway to fix this problem, and is there a way to have the newest version of itunes to work on windows 64 bit?
      Windows XP Pro  

    iTunes and QuickTime have never been supported on the 64-bit version of Windows (look here for the official statement). Some people have managed to get it working (at least tolerably), but from what I've read, a recent update from Microsoft has caused a lot of problems. You might try rolling back recent Windows updates and see if you can get things working again.

  • ITunes 10.5 64-bit resetting preferences and library

    I have been reading the discussions here, but have not found anyone with the problem I am experiencing with iTunes 10.5 64-bit.  The problem is as follows:  Each time I start/restart Windows 7, iTunes reverts all settings and the library to the default settings from installation.  I store my music files on an external drive and esperience no loss of files, album art, podcasts, playlists, etc. upon start/restart.  This issue has only appeared since work upgraded the laptop to a 64-bit machine, on which Apple will not allow a 32-bit version of iTunes to be installed.  I have saved a backup copy of all the files in the C:\Users\(user)\My Music\iTunes folder once iTunes settings and library were updated to point to the files on the external drive.  However, no matter what I try iTunes returns to the "installation" state everytime the computer is started.  Note: As long as the computer is running, I am able to open and close iTunes without losing the settings and library.
    Keeping fingers crossed in hopes someone can help!
    Software: iTunes 10.5.0.142 64-bit
    Laptop: Dell Precision | M440
    OS: Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit

    Thanks to NCPlater, here is the solution that worked for me:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17207475#17207475
    After following instructions for three different solutions that did NOT work; I found the solution that did work
    on the support site for Syamntec.
    Readers - Please, you must be VERY familiar with pc jargon and windows vernacular to accomplish the reset
    of ALL the permissions in your registry.
    Follow the ditrections below and pay attention to the notes for those running 64bit Win7.
    Step one, back up the registry.
    Step two, go to the MS KB:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf -ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en and download the file that installs subinacl. It is an MSI file, and will do a quick install of a few Microsoft files.  Hint: Look in the folder listed below, "subinacle.exe" may already be there.
    Step three, create a batch file (subinacle.bat) with the following commands:  (Use Notepad - copy & paste, not the red stuff)
    cd /d "Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools" (only for 32bit/x86 machines)
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %windir%\*.* /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose For 64bit machines substitute for first line of bat file:                    cd /d "c:\program files (x86)\windows resource kits\tools"
    Step four, run the batch file. Let it run until the Command Prompt screen closes, may take 30 minutes or more.
    Step five, reboot the machine and run the install again.

  • ITunes 10.1 (64-bit) slow performance

    Hello all,
    I have recently bought a new pc, a very fast machine (see details below), but I'm experiencing bad performance with iTunes 10.1 (64-bit) for windows.
    I don't have a lot of stuff in iTunes, I have about 120 apps, 500 songs, 1200 photos, couple of ringtones and 0 videos in my library. The whole iTunes interface responds slowly. Like clicking on Music, Videos, my iPhone in the side menu makes iTunes freeze for a couple of seconds and then switches to the screen. Even after loading a screen iTunes is freezed for a seconds before it's responsive.
    I've googled around for a while, and got some tips to disable some options in the preference window, so I've set all unnecessary things off, like: crossfadings songs, automatic update checking, looking for devices, automatic organizing, ping, genius, shared libraries, etc. but it doesn't speed up iTunes much.
    It gets even worse whenever I connect my iPhone 3G (Fw 4.2.1, 16GB, Black). iTunes simply freezes for like half a minute and the pc makes a few beeping noises because of connecting an usb-device. Even Windows 7 slows down a lot while connecting. iTunes gets responsive once my iPhone appears under devices in the side menu.
    Software I have constantly running in the backround are: AVG anti-virus free edition, SQL Server 2008, Steam and Skype. Turning off these softwares doesn't make a difference as well. There are no virusses or whatever on my pc. I let AVG anti-virus do a complete scan like once a week.
    Taskmanager shows iTunes using about 240,000K of memory, followed by steam with 70,000k of memory and skype with 30,000k of memory.
    Anyone else experiencing slow performance or know how to resolve this ?
    System details:
    Windows 7 64-bit
    Intel i7 950 @ 3.06GHz quad core processor
    6gigs of ddr3 (1600mhz) memory
    Ocz vertex2 ssd (The O/S and all music, photos, apps are on this disk)
    nvidia graphics card gtx460

    Same with me! I recently bought a new laptop, and iTunes 9 was working just fine. It takes like 5 seconds to scroll down one line. Clicking on different tabs and things takes forever as well. I am not sure what is causing it yet, but like you, I have disabled all sorts of iTunes settings which has not helped yet. Hopefully Apple will fix this problem soon! Let me know if you find a way to solve this.
    My PC Specs which are well above the minimum requirements:
    Asus UL80Jt
    Windows 7 64-Bit
    Intel i3 330UM Dual Core Processor @ 1.2GHz (ASUS Overclocking to 1.7 GHz)
    4GB RAM
    1.3 GB Dedicated Video RAM
    128 SSD

    Fallout75, good catch on the eXo plugin.  To remove it, in the Finder click "Go" on the menu bar and pull down to "Go to Folder" and then type ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins
    When that Finder window opens, you should see an "eXo" subdirectory.  Just delete that "eXo" folder and iTunes should start without the error.

  • Installing iTunes 7.6 64-bit

    I have Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, i cracked the installer for iTunes 7.6 (64-Bit for Vista) so it would stop checking for Vista and then it let me install in on XP, as the only item in that installer that is Vista Specific is the CD burning drivers, the rest is fine in XP.
    After installing, when i launch iTunes it tells me i don’t have QuickTime installed. this is because quicktime is in “C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime” and iTunes thinks it should be in “C:\Program Files\QuickTime”. Program files (x86) is the folder for 32-bit emulation, and i cannot install Quicktime in the regular Program Files because its not a 64-bit program.
    Apparently in Vista 64-bit versions you can link the 2 locations but that doesn’t work in XP, or at least its a different command prompt command.
    Can anyone help?

    I am a Mac advocate but have to use Windows and currently uses Windows XP Pro 64Bit (SP2) and I have the same issue I have found several websites on how to work around iTunes's problem to get it to work but what I am looking for is a way to request Apple to include the 64-Bit drivers and modify the install to recongize Windows XP Pro 64-Bit as a valid OS. This is all the work arounds are doing in the first place. I DON'T want to got Vista x64 to get a supported configuration of iTunes. You have 64-bit drivers for bootcamp so ITunes and Safari should be 64-bit.
    BTW Here is the site I found with the workaround
    http://yukichigai.googlepages.com/iphonex64
    Steve love your products but we need your apps to work in 64-bit on XP Pro 64bit and Vista 64bit, don't do a Microsoft.
    Also while your at it can you hurry u with the Blue-Ray capable 15' MacBook Pros that can do WUXGA or 1080p HD resolutions (1900x1200).
    Thanks for the lack of blue screens,

    Windows 8.1, iOS 8.1.3, Itunes 12.1 64 bit, constantly get 'waiting for changes to apply' when trying to sync my new ipod touch. Downloaded latest version f itunes, and ipod software up to date. Really frustrated I can't sync my music! Please can someone help me

    Im having huge issues after updating to 12.1 on Win 8.1  x64. Choppy playback and so on.
    Try this since it helps in most situtation :
    Remove itunes but keep library files. Then download it again and install it.
    Also most likely you will have to restore ipod touch. I restored my iPhone 5 to remove waiting for changes to apply and Error 54.
    my iPad air still isnt restored (cant do it now) and it sometimes does same like iPhone waiting for changes to apply. And gives error 54 but sync DOES GET COMPLETED.
    Also may sound stupid but try to use USB 2.0 Ports. Not 3.0. I have troubles when using 3.0
