ITunes 7.3 - Mini Player in Taskbar no longer works

The buttons on my Taskbar Mini Player no longer work after upgrading to iTunes 7.3. The Mini Player shows up fine, but the "Play" button appears even while music is playing (when it should switch over to "Pause"). Nothing happens when you click on any of the buttons, even though it shows the buttons being depressed in the normal manner. When I deactivate the Mini Player through the toolbar menu on the Taskbar, iTunes disappears from my desktop, though the music keeps playing (I have to force quit to close the program).
Anyone else having this issue?

Kakairo,
This is very odd. Can you try this:
1. Remove iTunes in Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs.
2. Choose Run... from the Start Menu.
3. Type cmd and click OK.
A cmd.exe window will appear
4. Drag the iTunesSetup.exe from the Desktop into the cmd.exe window
5. Then type one trailing space
Copy and paste this text into the cmd window:
/l*v C:\log.txt
6. Press Enter on the keyboard.
This will start the iTunes installer with full logging enabled. After the installation is complete, a file named log.txt will be created on your C: drive. Please email me that file. Please include a link to this Discussions thread in your email, so I can keep everything straight.

  • ITunes minimized into mini player on taskbar

    I remember a while back, I was able to minimize iTunes so it would be a mini player on the taskbar. Any idea how to do this?

    That's your iTunes ToolBar, Vanessa. Right click on the Task Bar, and go "Toolbars > iTunes". Does that get it working for you again?

    Thanks for responding. Since I upgraded ITUNES to IOS 6, my IPOD Touch no longer works at all. I had numerous apps, music and videos on this touch. It made me restore to factory reset and it still does not work!!! Nothing I do will work on this touch now. I have so much data on this, I don't want to loose or have to restore!
    Can you help me?
    Thanks

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

    I can CREATE the list but, the songs that I have played don't accumulate in the list.
    I haven't changed the steps that worked for me previous to the upgrade.
    I have no idea how to fix this and can't find mention of anyone else having a similar problem.
    Any suggestions?

    Click on a station and drag to the left. The playlists sidebar will open up. Drop on the playlist you want to add to.

    Photoshop Elements 13, the iTunes "Sync Photos from Photoshop Elements" feature no longer works??? Is had worked with photoshop 9 pretty good? how can I enable this feature?
    thx. francisco

    I am experiencing the same problem after upgrading to PSE13, but haven't found a solution yet.

  • ITunes Mini-player in Taskbar on Vista x64?

    Howdy,
    I have had Vista Ultimate Retail from the day it come out, but I have only just installed it instead of XP. In XP you could Right Click the taskbar and select Toolbars > iTunes and when you minimised iTunes it would show a mini player in the Windows taskbar giving easy access to the play/rewind/pause etc buttons... just like Media Player.
    Well I cannot do it in Vista x64? Any reason why I cannot do this? Or has it just not been introduced into Vista yet? I'm sure I have read people on here being able to get it work? But How?
    Any help will be appreciated!

    keogh,
    I can understand your frustration, however the Microsoft Windows 64-bit is currently not supported by iTunes. Some features may not work correctly. This article has more information:

  • Alright why oh why can't I switch between iTunes details and mini player?

    Ok I like the new format, separation of the iTunes store makes it a great media player. However the with the new iTunes application what Neanderthal decided not to use the green button to switch between listing and viewing and the mini player, instead it's a trip to the keyboard OR stupidly switching between a big screen layout and a not so big layout,... useless!
    I use itunes as follows open application select music, settings and then set to mini player and get on with what I'm doing, at least let us choose the behaviour it has when clicking the green button,... please,...

    The only fix at the moment is to hold the option key when clicking the green button.
    Send Apple your feedback and this might get fixed: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

  • ITunes starts in mini-player

    Finally discovered I could click Window/Zoom to bring up the full iTunes screen, but then when I quit and start up again, we are rightback to the mini player. I have looked in preferences and cannot find anything there to change. I just want it to start up in full screen. I don't even USE mini player. HELP!

  • External display via Mini DisplayPort to DVI no longer works with MacBook.

    I had not used my external monitor in the last several weeks. I believe there have been a few OSX Lion updates since the last time I used the external monitor. I had installed all the updates prior to connecting my external monitor again. However, a few days ago I tried to connect the external monitor and all I get is a "No Signal" message on my external monitor. The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI works on my LCD TV, so I know  the MDP works. I have also replaced the MDP-to-DVI cord and the external display still doesn't work.
    I connected the external monitor to another computer running Snow Leopard and the external monitor works. So, the external monitor does work.
    I have seen a few posts aboout this, but nobody seems to have a solution that works or is directly on point to my issue. I have tried to use all the scenarios for plugging in the external monitor and external monitor power. I tried to reboot the laptop with and withoout the external monitor connected. Same thing with the exteernal monitor plugged in and no power, etc. Nothing works. I have tried to repeatedly turn the external monitor on and off while connected to the MacBook. Again, that doesn't work.
    So, I am open to any help someone may have. Here is what I am running:
    MacBook, Aluminum 13" Late 2008
    OSX 10.7.3
    NVIDIA GeForce 9400M

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Lion. There's a Lion Support Community where everybody has Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. Lion seems to have problems with external monitors.  https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion

  • Mini dvi to HDMI no longer working to t.v.

    Hello. For months I was able to use the mini dvi to HDMI to use my Samsung HD t.v. as a monitor from my Macbook Pro. Suddenly one day when I started it up, the t.v. said "No Signal" and then the Macbook Pro goes to sleep. If I take out the mini dvi it will wake up again, but the moment I put it back the t.v. goes back for a second the way it usually would when it first recognizes the mac, then the mac goes to sleep again. If I look at the built in display, I can see that it isn't even detecting the Samsung is hooked up any more. Could the video card have already gone bad? It isn't even six months old.

    I'm having similar problems. I have a Toshiba Regza 1080p HDTV and frustrated that I cannot get my audio and video to work selecting one INPUT source on the TV. I used to stream Netflix with the minidiv and a separate mini stereo cable and it worked! until I moved and voila it stopped working. Grrrrr. I switched to a mini stereo y cable when a technician told me perhaps my audio cable was bad. Tried every combination of display setting on my Macbook Pro (OSX 10.5.8) and I'm stumped. Little to no sound setting on my MBP as some forums advise that I select an HDMI output. BL: My MBP sends audio out (thru HD Colorstream 1 audio input) and video using minidvi-HDMI to Toshiba's HMDI 1 (tried HDMI 2; etc.) Nothing works. Since only one input may be selected thru the HDTV at any given time I cannot figure out what I need to do the get the audio from Colorstream HD1 and HDMI video to synchronize. I just read about the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter Pro w/Optical Audio cable and wondering if that will push my audio from MBP and video to the Toshiba HDMI port thus allowing me to select one input source on my Toshiba 1080p HDTV and perhaps being a solution? Before I go out and buy this I need some help from you smart folks. Thank you!
