ITunes 7.2.0.34 && GEAR Driver error

Hi there,
I have just encountered a problem with my Apple iTunes. I had many problems with 7.1 and so i uninstalled it and tried to install 7.2.0.34.
When loading the install package, i receive this warning sign:
Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time. The GEARAspiWDM service use by the GEAR driver is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run iTunes again.
Now i googled GEARAspiWDM
and got this result:
http://www.file.net/process/gearaspiwdm.sys.html
I went to: C:\Windows\System32\drivers
& deleted GEARAspiWDM.sys .
I have also visited the GEAR driver website
http://www.gearsoftware.com/support/drivers.cfm
and downloaded the 32-bit one.
when i try to install the 32-bit driver package, however, i still am confronted with the same message:
Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time. The GEARAspiWDM service use by the GEAR driver is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run iTunes again.
can anyone out there provide a solution.
PLEASE!!!!!!

I'm having exactly the same crash report as you. I'm currently stumped with this problem, and any assistance will be most helpful.
(striped down version of windows XP, used nlite), the computer is rock solid and all other programs have been working fine. I don't think hat I have any issues with the computer operating system; for the full crash report and crash dump, just ask. Cam

GEAR driver error message when trying to install iTunes on Vista

The error message I am getting is as follows:
"Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time. The GearAspiWDM service used by the GEAR driver set is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run iTunes again."
I have followed all the instructions for completely removing iTunes and trying again. I have also tried to install the Quicktime/iTunes package. Nothing is working!! My son got this iPod shuffle as a reward for doing great on his SOL tests and he hasn't even been able to enjoy it yet because I can't get iTunes to install! Please help!!

ITunes will not work on network drive Error (-54)

Greetings.
I recently got the new 27" iMac, and am converting my old Mac Pro 2009 to a "server."
On my Mac Pro, I had my iTunes folder on a separate drive, which was formatted exFAT. This was done specifically because I work cross-platform. So "Drive A" was my OSX Boot drive, "Drive B" was my Windows 7 Bootcamp drive, "Drive C" was my exFAT shard data drive and "Drive D" was Time Machine. The goal was, and is, to be able to use iTunes cross-platform without having to manage separate libraries.
Now, I would like to connect my iMac's iTunes (Mac side) to "Drive C," but I keep getting an error message: The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. An unknown error occurred (-54). At first I thought it was due to the fact that the Mac Pro kept going to sleep, so I changed the setting. That didn't work. I then checked permissions - and the permissions give my iMac read-write permission, so that *shouldn't* be the issue. I can write to the network drive just fine.
The issue can't be connectivity, because I am using ethernet, not wifi to connect the drives.
I cannot use target disk mode, because "Drive C" is not a boot drive.
So I need to know why iTunes cannot now write the Library file when permissions should be fine, it never had a problem with exFAT formatting in the last year I had that configuration and what can I do now to get iTunes to work over a network.
Both versions of iTunes are current.
The only remaining variable I can possibly think of is that the Mac Pro is using the latest version of Lion and not MacOSX Server.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

CD driver error

I am running Windows Vista 64bit and after installing Itunes I get the following error "Warning, Itunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall Itunes." Itunes runs fine but like it says I cannot do anything with CDs. I was looking around Itunes and clicked on the about window and it states that cd driver is not available and cd driver dll not available.
I was wondering if this is something to do with Vista 64bit?
Thank you in advance

I receive the same 'Warning-iTunes was not installed properly. If you wish to import or burn cds you need to reinstall itunes' error message when I launch itunes. I installed the Gear driver, and did a repair of itunes for a sanity check, and still get the same message when itunes launches, but it looks like now it sees the cd/dvd drive. Any thoughts as to why the error message still pops up?

Re: Error message updating itunes from 7.0.2 to 7.1.1 Gear driver (AspiWDM)

I get error messages continuously when updating itunes. The error message I'm getting is: "Unable to install the GEAR driver set at this time. The GEAR AspiWDM used by the Gear driver set is scheduled to be deleted during the next system reboot. Please reboot the system and run itunes again." I've done this numureous times with no resolve.
I've read allot of 7.1.1 install problems but never ran accross this one. Does the 7.1.1 upgrade for itunes have clitches in the software? With 2500 songs and 20 movies currently on itunes and my ipod, I would hate to lose so much at this point or at all. Anybody, please give me your feedback or potential resolution to this problem. Thanks

Error Code -36 When Copying iTunes Music folder to an External Drive

_*"The finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "NAME.mp3" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)_"*
This is the error message I get when trying to copy my iTunes music folder to an external drive. I am following Apple's knowledge base article, so yes, I have consolidated my library, have closed iTunes and there is plenty of room on the external drive. For what it's worth, I am also getting this error when trying to do the same thing with my iPhoto library.
Would be grateful for some insight,
With oodles of appreciation in advance,
Joe

I was getting the same "-36" error while trying to backup to a Lacie firewire external drive.
I had a lot of people telling me to re-format, erase, reinstall, run utility programs ... yada, yada, yada.
First off, test to see if it is the connection type (firewire). I reconnected the offending external drive via USB, restarted the drive and ... BINGO! ... all transfers went perfectly.
Once i knew it was the firewire connection and not the drive itself i simply unplugged my iSight camera (the only other firewire device connected to my machine), reconnected my external drive via firewire and the problem is now corrected.
Firewire buses seem to be very finicky things ... i would suggest eliminating all firewire devices from the machine (except, of course, the external drive you're trying to transfer to) and see if the problem goes away.
Like i said, i simply unplugged my iSight camera and the transfer to my external drive went perfect and my transfer rates went from an average of 4MB/sec to over 19MB/sec.
P.S. BTW - prior to the error and after i corrected the error by unplugging the iSight camera, my internal and external drives all checked out 100% on Disk Utility, Disk Warrior and TechTool Pro.

I perviously transfered all my iTunes music to an external hard drive. But now when I connect the external hard drive and try to play a song, I get an error message saying that I need to "locate" my music. I don't how to find it on my external hard drive.

Please help for I am not that computer savy and don't want to mess anything up.
Thanks!

I called Apple Support and they walked me through it. They told me to basically copy and paste my music to the external hard drive. (I think.) Or maybe it was they had me transfer a folder to the EHD. I don't exactally remember it was a few years back. But I tried to plug in the EHD before starting and...nothing. Still says same thing, "locate file."

I recently transferred my itunes library to an external hard drive. Now I get the error message 'the original file could not be found. Could you like to locate it' when i try to open songs. My iPod syncs ok.

I recently tranferred my iTunes library to an external hard drive. Now I cannot open songs and get the error message ' The song "***" could not not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it'. This applies to all 9742 songs!!. My iPod still syncs ok, but I can't play songs on the PC. Can anyone please help.

It would help to have more background about your iTunes collection such as if you keep it on an external drive, or if you have moved or renamed anything recently. iTunes is very sensitive to you renaming or moving files or folders involved with your media. iTunes only keeps a reference to where a media file is located and then goes to look for it when you try to play it. If you have changed things since it was added to itunes then it's like me sending you to look for a friend in my addressbook but that friend has moved.
The other possibility is your computer is starting to lose files. Again, the computer uses a reference database to tell it where on the drive to look for a file. If that database gets corrupt then it starts losing files. Use Dsk Utility's first aid to verify your hard drive.
