Why does iTunes create disk errors when deleting movie files?

I use a Macbook Pro, OSX 10.7.5. When I delete movie file from my iTunes library I get disk errors. I need to option boot select the recovery disk and repair the disk. Deleting a movie file I have placed on my desktop with finder does not create any errors. Most of the movie files are created as .m4v movies. They all play just fine with my Apple TV. I have tried turning off the Apple TV and rebooting before I delee files but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?
Lance

If you let iTunes organise your media folders then that is the way it is. An option would be to change the Media Kind to TV Show which would gather them togther in one folder, but in a different part of the library.

ITunes gives "Windows - No Disk error" ***?

Back with version 6, my iTunes decided to unlocate all my songs. It wants me to manually tell it where each one is again. Pain in the *. That aside, since the last two updates, Whenever iTunes launches, it starts to update, but then a "Windows - No Disk" error pops up and I have to end task it to get it and iTunes to close.
What's up with that?

hi scottymac!
header; iTunes.exe - No disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk\DR5.
hmmm. actually, i've had
b mixed
results when trying to fix this one, and you're actually the first person who's reported only getting it
b some
of the time (that i'm aware of).
so if you don't mind, let's try doing some basic research.
(1) head into your "My Computer" while you've got the ipod plugged in. what drives are being assigned to what drive letters? for reference purposes, here's a screenshot of my "My Computer" window:

(your ipod may not show up in this window. don't panic.)
do you get the message when you're in this configuration?
(2) could you head into your itunes "Advanced-General" subtab and take a screenshot of that for us? there's instructions on how to do that given here:

Getting "Windows-No Disk" error when try to open itunes

itunes will no longer open. Every time I open it I get a Windows-No Disk error that says "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive." itunes just totally freezes up and I can't access anything. This error makes no sense to me. (BTW, I tried putting in and taking out disks in drives, but no change.)
I think this problem started after I upgrade but can't remember now.
I haven't seen anyone else mention this error so I'm stumped... and very frustrated. Appreciate any help.

I have the same probelm and I think it's also from upgrading to the free 7.1 version of iTunes.

HELP! iTunes won't load, gives Windows - No Disk error

This is so aggravating!
Last week I purchased $100 worth of audio books to put on my iPod for a vacation. Immediately iTunes wanted me to upgrade to 5.0, so I did. That's where the nightmare began.
With both versions, when I click on the iTunes icon (or the menu item), I get the license agreement, click "agree", then wait a moment before getting the Windows - No Disk error telling me to put a disk in "the drive" (it doesn't specify which drive). The message doesn't go away no matter how many times I click, or how fast, (I've gone into the hundreds). The only way I can get rid of it is to go into control/alt/delete and cancel the iTunes.exe process.
I have now spent about 20 hours trying everything I've seen on all the boards. I have uninstalled using Windows uninstaller; I've reinstalled standalone quicktime; I've installed with the ethernet cord disconnected and the USB's disconnected (including external hard drive); I've made sure all firewalls, etc. were off (McAfee, not Norton). I've done everything but voodoo.
I can roll back to iTunes 4.9 but it won't let me access my very expensive iTunes music and books - it just tries to take me to the music store and tells me to upgrade to 6.0!!!!!
Can someone please help?!

Problem accessing iTunes. Getting error message "The iTunes Library Extras.itdb file is on a locked disk"?

Problem accessing iTunes. Getting error message "The iTunes Library Extras.itdb file is on a locked disk"

Close iTunes, delete iTunes Library Extras.itdb from your iTunes folder, start iTunes. iTunes should rebuild the file automatically.

No Disk Error

When I try to start up iTunes I get a Windows - No Disk error. I cancel it three or four times and it goes away but iTunes will not boot up. Then it comes up with another message that says "The folder 'iTunes' cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the 'My Music' folder." Obviously it isn't there or it would work. I tried to look for it but the search came back with a whole butt load of files named 'iTunes'. I have removed the program and re-downloaded it and that didn't help. I don't know a lot about Computers but I know a little. Someone have mercy and help me. Thanks in advance.

This might help you...or at least help you better explain what's happening.
What are the iTunes library files?

Windows - no disk error

When I go to open my itunes program, i get this error message.
not all of my purchased songs are downloading onto my ipod either.
had to reset my ipod to original settings and like i said not all of my purchased songs downloaded.
thanks

I have a Windows Media Center PC from HP. It has a reader on it for different memory cards - HP calls it a 7-1. It reads SD cards, CompactFlash cards, etc. The four slots are assigned disks D through G. Normally I only use the SD slot. When I used the CompactFlash slot, it didn't work. And at the same time iTunes stopped working.
There is a Microsoft KB article on this problem. The resolution solved the No Disk error with iTunes.
Check out -
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;297694
I started the disk manager, then re-assigned the four disk letters to other letters. In my case I chose K,L,M,N. Quit the utility and start iTunes.
I'm still miffed at Apple. Theirs is the only software that got caught with this bug.

Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!

Windows - No Disk Error - Please help!
Hi,
I have the following set up:
* Lenovo T-61p
* Windows XP Pro, SP 3
* HP Photosmart 8250 printer (with nothing plugged into the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer)
I am getting the following error:
Windows - No Disk
Exception Processing Message 0xc0000013 Parameters 0x75CE023C
0x84C40C84 0x75CE023C
I have done a lof experimenting and thru process of elimination, and believe I have determined that this only happens when the HP Photosmart 8250 printer is plugged in to the USB slot of the computer.
I can stop it from happening by safely removing hardware, and removing the drive that the 8250 creates on your computer when you plug it in. In my case, this is drive E. I'm guessing if there was something in the the various card readers, and USB slot in the printer, that's what those would be, but I don't those use those functions of the printer.
I understand there is more at work than simply the printer, because I did not used to get this error, so some software changed as well, that is scanning all ports, and finding a drive that has no disk, and producing the error.
A simple google search finds a lot people all over the world having this problem, and are solving it in different ways, because the suspected source is different: Norton, HP, etc.
I have tried everything I have read, and the only thing that works was my own idea, of manually safely removing the drive the printer creates each time I plug in the printer.
Anyone every any better, more permanent solutions? Or know what the real root of the problem is? What is scanning all the drives and being showing an error message because it found an empty drive?
Thanks and Happy Holidays/New Year!

I've been getting the same error on my 4G nano for the past week. I've had my nano for about a month and the first few weeks were fine. Tried it on 2 different computers (Vista and XP) and same problem. Tried it on a 3rd (XP) and it started ok. Problem started coming back after a day.
I was able to find a quick fix though. I noticed that sometimes the message says something like "iexplore.exe... no disk..." even if I don't even use IE. What I do is end iexplore.exe on task manager before running iTunes and syncing my nano. I don't get the error whenever I do this, but one drawback is that the contents of my nano suddenly pops up in a window - even when disk use is not enabled.
I've reset/restored my nano dozens and dozens of times to make sure it's clean. Leads me to believe it's a driver issue. Either that or I have a friggin malware problem I can't seem to find.
I'll be posting updates every now and then. I'm no expert so I'm hoping an Apple expert also steps in to give some input.

Unable to fully install itunes due to error message

I have been trying to install itunes and when I get about three quarters of the way in an error screen pops up telling me that I have an error writing to the file C:/Documents and Settings/All users/Application Data/.../GEARAspiWDM.inf and telling me I need to verify that I have access to this directory. How do I find that file and fix this problem so that I can fully install itunes?

an error screen pops up telling me that I have an error writing to the file C:/Documents and Settings/All users/Application Data/.../GEARAspiWDM.inf and telling me I need to verify that I have access to this directory.
Quite often those messages are caused by disk/file damage rather than a genuine permissions problem.
Try running a chkdsk over your C drive. There's instructions and a guided help in the following Microsoft document:
[How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265]
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you now get your iTunes install to go through properly?

Dont have much experience with computers
The problem occured after downloading a Media file from a Youtube to mp2 converter

many thanks for the detailed info, Dakota.
EventType: InPageError
A rarer one. It tends to be associated with disk/file damage.
The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, does iTunes launch properly afterwards?

"Can't read or write to disk" error message

hi...
got my husband a 16g nano and i'm trying to sync his songs. i have the newest version of itunes installed. it put almost half of the songs on the nano and all of a sudden itunes has an error that says something about "can't write to nano. disk is not readable or writeable." i can view the nano contents, but i can't add to it and it will not let me sync it anymore.
does anyone have any suggestions? thanks!

thanks jason,
i looked at the tips page you suggested and i tried it again on my new laptop and it still won't work. i'm going to try to restore it and then put it on the laptop again, hopefully that will work.
the odd thing is it will start to sync and it comes up with the error message about half way through syncing (half the songs do make it to the ipod.) why can't it sync the whole way?? i'm perplexed.

Itunes 7.1 error message

cannot open itunes account get error message as follows:
"the itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error accured (-200)
What do I need to do to resolve this issue?

"the itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error accured (-200)
that one is usually associated with a broken QuickTime. (itunes needs a fully functional QT in order to run properly.)
let's try the following technique to try getting a fresh copy of QuickTime installed on your PC.
open your add/remove programs, and uninstall QuickTime. then check for any leftover QuickTime program files and folders on the PC.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
7. Restart your computer.
after the Pc has restarted we'll try a repair install of itunes. (that should reinstall the correct version of QuickTime on the PC.
go into Add/Remove, and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
if the repair install goes through okay, reboot the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly this time?

Cannot update or reinstall iTunes - receiving access error message

Hello
I tried to install the most recent iTunes update the other night and received the below errow. I uninstalled and tried to reinstall and am still receiving the same error -
Error writing to C:\Program Files(x86)\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\fr.prj\printing Template\15.Media.PlainPaper.SS.xml. Verify you have access to that directory.
I am the administrator on my computer and none of the files are hidden, they dont appear to be read only either.
Please can anyone shed any light on what this could be?
Thanks in advance

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.

Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors

I need some resolution please assist. I did call microsft but they want to charge just to get help. I need assistance please.

Although it's a better bet with a 2330 than a 2349, I'd try running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
