ITunes 7.4.3 doesn't work on Vista

I've been battling with this problem for about a week now, and I've been looking everywhere for an answer to this, but I've found none.
I upgraded iTunes from 7.4.2 to 7.4.3 last week, and restarted my computer when prompted. I tried opening it up...and it didn't work. Vista gave me the message that "iTunes has stopped working." Within the week, the only progress I made was plugging in my iPod to charge it (at which point, the same message popped up, but the error must've been slightly different because it let me send in an error report), and downloading Songbird so I could actually listen to my songs.
Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I don't want to completely delete iTunes, but if worse comes to worse, I will
Thanks in advance!

My iTunes hasn't been working since July/August when Apple upgraded iTunes. I am able to open up iTunes but it freezes as soon as it is open. The only thing I know is you should install it by right-click and choose "run as administrator". Disable all the Internet security, anti-virus, and firewall software when you download or install.
I haven't found any solution yet.

When I connect my iPod touch it tells me that I need a new version of Apple Mobile Device Support and to uninstall iTunes and then re-install it, I've done that twice with the newest version of iTunes and it still doesn't work?

Try:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

I clicked "yes" to upgrade iTunes and now it doesn't work. I get an error message stating my computer is missing MSVCR80 and then a message stating Error 7 (Windows Error 126). I've tried reloading iTunes twice. What can I do?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

HT1212 ipod Touch 5th generation. I changed the original passcode and then forgot, so it says 'iPod is disabled'. It hadn't been synced with iTunes, so I switched it off, held home button, connected to Mac, did restore on iTunes twice but it doesn't work.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

After upgrading from ITunes6 on ITunes 7 my videos doesn´t work

after upgrading from ITunes6 on ITunes 7 my videos doesn´t work. there are no error messages, popups or ballons. songs are no problem, only the videos?!
Can somebody help me?
Thanks
Cross

hmmmm. let's try checking to see if they will still play in your current version of QuickTime.
in itunes, right-click on one of the videos that is causing the grief, and select "Show in Windows Explorer".
right click the icon of the file in the Explorer window that comes up and select "Open With ...", and try to open it with your QuickTime player. does it play there or do you get funny business with that too?

ITunes 10.4.1 DOESN'T WORK!!

I had problems with 10.4.0.80 and had to revert back to 10.3.1 but I tried 10.4.1 anyway like an idiot. Same problems as before - backup doesn't work, iTunes wouldn't recognize phone, blah blah blah. Two more hours (so far) wasted on bad software.
I hope Tim Cook is watching!! iPhone/iPad + bad iTunes = bad iPhone/iPad
In case anyone knows the voodoo needed to make this work, I'm running Vista 32 with iPhone 4 and iPad 2.

Maybe this discussion will help until Mr. Cook's team fixes ITunes 10.4.1

Can't access iTunes Store: New Safari doesn't work on my version of Mac!

Hey guys.
I'm a new owner of an iPhone, and i was just planning to purchase an app. I opened the itunes store tab on my iTunes... i have to download the newest version of Safari.
Okay. So i went and did that on the Mac Download site. I selected the Leopard option. Open up...
Halfway through the installation process, it tells me that my Version is doesn't work. It only works on Mac OS X 10. 5.8 ?!
What i am doing wrong?

Update your OSX to 10.5.8. It is free to update. It is suggested that you d/l the 'combo' update. This will make sure all required files are installed with the update.
Once that is done you should be able to install the version of Safari that you have d/l.

Installed iTunes 7.3.2 - doesn't work

I recently installed the latest iTunes and whenever I open it, it immediately freezes and goes to "not responding" status and I have to ctrlaltdel it closed. I'm not running any fancy software, just doesn't work. Should I uninstall and redownload it, will I lose all my info if I do that?
Thanks for any help...

Okay. Sometimes if iTunes is trying to download a (slightly dodgy) podcast file while it is doing the library update, it will hang on "updating library".
Usually when that's afoot the hang seems to happen right at the very beginning of the "updating library" process.
If that's what's happening, this might be of some help. Disconnect from the internet (or your network) and try launching iTunes again. Does the library update go through properly then? if so, try quitting itunes, reconnecting to the internet/network and launching iTunes again. Does it still launch properly?

15gb ipod + iTunes 6.02+ Updater = doesn't work

I have tried all 5 suggestions from apple for my ipod and it just doesn't work. I connected my ipod with the firewire like always it turns on, but doesn't show up on my itunes nor does it connect to the updater. I'm at my wits end. I still have room for approximately 1500 songs so I don't want to go get a new one, but, i'm reading abot so many problems with the new version of itunes ans the updater that i'm beginning to wonder. I just want to be able to listen to the albumd I downloaded this weekend whilst at work. Can someone help me before I pull my hair out? And yes, I work just 4 1/2 blocks from the apple store.

Hi
Try to format your iPod, then reconnect it with your computer, hope your iTunes 7 recognizes it.
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.

Itunes on new computer doesn't work

Just setb up a new Imac and Itunes doesn't work. Says it is because it was copied from a previous Itunes. If want to download just do so, but I don't get an option at all.

Hello Myrita
Check to make sure that iTunes is up to date. Alternatively, you could create a new iTunes library and then import the media that is already on the iMac. The articles below will assist you further.

ITunes 7.3.2 doesn't work - just 'spins'

Two days ago, I opened my previous iTunes version (all previous versions have worked flawlessly for me) and was about to watch BSG. The auto update indicated there was a security update and the new and improved iTunes 7.3.2. I mistakenly started the download/install, and still have iTunes open. Of course it told me to close out iTunes before proceeding any further (didn't notice a cancel install option), so had to do a force quit (which states changes won't be saved...). The install went forward, and had to do a restart because of the security update. I then tried to open iTunes, it opens, I can see my data, it checks the store for any updates, but then the little spinning wheel comes on when you try to do anything, and it just freezes up and you have to force quit to stop it. Have tried waiting, reinstalling it (2x), restarting, lots of little things, but cannot get it to work.
Somebody help the ignorant out please!!!

OK, got it figured out (I think and so far).
RECAP: Was downloading the new and improved iTunes 7.3.2 last week. STUPIDLY had iTunes open at the same time (that's when the software update came on, after opening iTunes). Had to "force quit" during the install. Downloaded a security patch at the same time. Was using the Internet during. After restarting (due to the security update), I tried to open iTunes, it would always open, load and then freeze up thus had to always "force quit".
Tried everything I could think of and stuff found under Support and Apple Discussions.
No Shapeshifter.
Removed iTunes, and reloaded it (in various ways). Older versions as well.
Quicktime too.
Repaired Disk Permissions via Disk Utility
Deleted iTunesX in Library/Receipts
Reloaded bundled software apps
Nothing really worked.
Then just "moved" the iTunes Library file, and iTunes created another one and it worked! So I guess I gotta rebuild my iTunes set-up, but so far, so good. One other Message (iTunes LIbrary damaged...) on this site cited the same problem and said his/her file said "corrupted" and it kept corrupting the new ones, mine never indicated that it was bad, it just hung everything up. I will keep testing it, but have watched a bit of BSG and so far, so good. So happy again.

Touch screen doesn't work after Vista Home64-bit upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium on IQ506

Hello, right before I upgraded to Win7, I made sure that the Touchsmart software worked and that the touch screen itself worked. As soon as I performed the upgrade (not the clean upgrade that wipes all your existing data, but rather the upgrade that carries over your applications and files), the touch screen ceased to work.
I didn't panic, thinking that I probably had to run some windows/hp updates, which I did to no avail. I also manually updated ALL the driver/software files found at this link http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=4063&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us〈=en&product=3752245
Yup, every single one. As a last resort, I tried some of the HP troubleshooting for touch screens not working. It said to shut down the computer, pull the plug on the computer, hold the power button for 5 seconds, plug the computer back in, and boot it up again. Didn't help at all.
I'm at the end of my rope and there is no additional HP support on this. I'm waiting for a reliable driver update for win7 for this **bleep** touch screen. I'm dead in the water -- I've got a touchscreen computer whose touchscreen doesn't work! Someone else out there must be having this problem! Any leads?

Did you try installing the Touch Driver?

Drag and drop from Mozilla to PS doesn't work with Vista

On XP I can drag an image directly from Mozilla to Photoshop and it opens it in a new document. In Vista that doesn't work anymore.
Any ideas if this can be fixed

> Straight drag and drop to PS produced a warning message so, when I then tried to drag on to the PS task bar button, I got the Ø cursor but on moving into the PS window and releasing the mouse button there, the file opened.
That's the strangest behavior that I would imagine. Are you using the default vista aero theme or you have turned down or using custom theme and visual effects?
> it needs to be pointed out that this is a really bad habit that will smack you in the face one day...
I don't understand what you mean. If you are concerned about viruses, in my understanding copying and opening a file from the internet which is what "Save image as" does, is less safe than coping and pasting pixels. Copying and pasting pixels is the same as coping and pasting text from your web browser, it can't execute hidden code. If that was possible everybody will get viruses at the moment text or pixels are displayed on your browser.
By the way when you view a page from the internet, image files are already downloaded in the temp folder of your computer but only the browser uses them unless you open them from there and use in another program. So if you have a virus protection the images are already scanned.
