I cannot get past registering modules for Itunes 7. I've tried cancelling and restarting computer and it still gets stuck. What can I do. Itunes 6 is no longer on the computer.

    There is no such thing as an "SG3" or "SG4".  Did you possibly mean a 3GS and iPhone4?
    It has always been very basic to ensure that a backup exists of your media and other important files.  Computers fail, hard drives crashes... things happen.  Do you not have a backup?  The iPhone, like all iDevices is NOT a backup of your media, but rather a mirror of the content in the iTunes library on your computer.
    If your contacts, pics, etc are not on your computer, no backups of the iPhone exist, and they are not on the phone, they are gone.
    No one can magically make them re-appear.

    Place the iPod in Recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.

  • Crystal Report 2008 Installation Failed - Registering modules

    HI Folks
    I'm trying to install Crystal Report 2008 on XP Pro SP2. The installation stop on Registering Modules, even if I click Cancel,
    it does not do anything it just hang there. I have to kill the process in Task Manager. If I restarted the installation,
    it says that I have already an installtion process running. So I have to reboot and then restart the installation,
    now it says that it will continue a previous uncompleted installation. But it hangs again at Registering Modules.
    It does not even stop at the same file. I have done this process several time with always the same result.
    Each time it stops on a different file but always during the Registering Modules process.

    As well as that make sure you are a local PC administrator or belong to that group. Also check Microsoft's site to make sure you have the latest Microsoft Installer. I believe there is a test tool to check your PC.
    Do you know what version of CR 2008 you have? There should be a ProductId.txt file to confirm the version. SP 3 should fully support DEP so if you don't have it download it from this [link|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009989492010E/cr2008_sp3_fullbuild.zip].
    Then it should get past Microsoft's security. If it's your Anti-V as Stratos suggests then only option is to disconnect from the network and disable it, install and the reconnect.
    The other common registration issue is due to missing dependencies or possibly updated dependencies that CR found but can't use. Some of our dependencies are specific versions.

  • ITunes setup/installation not loading (Windows 7 64 bit)

    So I uninstalled iTunes because it wasn't able to recognize my iPhone for some reason even though Windows would (and it could be viewed in the 'Computer' folder). At first I could take pictures off of the phone by navigating through these folders: Computer/Apple Iphone/Internal Storage/DCIM (this is the usual way I take my photos off my phone, I don't sync them through iTunes). But now even that folder is empty and I can't export pictures from my phone either along with still not being able to use the syncing options in iTunes.
    So either the issue is with the phone (as I have dropped it recently) or iTunes. I uninstalled iTunes to make sure it wasn't iTunes fault. And now I can't reinstall it. This NEW and bigger issue happens when I open 'iTunes64Setup'. After opening this file, Windows asks me "Do you want to run this file?" (usual security question) and I press the Run button like I usually would.
    This is were the issue happens. After I press 'Run'. Literally nothing happens. The security question page disappears and you would expect the setup page to appear after but literally nothing happens. The computer doesn't even start lagging or anything along those lines. Its like as if I pressed the cancel button rather than the run button.
    I was later told that I should delete all other iTunes related programs (4 of them to specific: Bonjour, Apple Software Update, Apple-Program Support, and Apple Mobile Device Support) before reinstalling iTunes. I uninstalled all 4 but AMDS does not uninstall (perhaps the syncing issues are because of this program and not iTunes). I use the usual method to try and uninstall. I double click to uninstall in Control Panel and a small window called 'Windows Installer' appears and the page says "Preparing to remove". Once this page disappears (after the green bar fills up and then for some reason emptys!?). So AMDS does not delete. I gave up and tried reinstalling iTunes again any way after deleting the other 3 Apple programs. I also tried uninstalling quicktime and restarted the computer many times. I also tried using Revo Uninstaller to uninstall AMDS but it doens't even appear in that list.
    I still have the same issue. After the Run page of the setup nothing else appears.
    I have also tried downloading older versions of iTunes using oldapps.com. All of those present the exact same problem after the security question page. I really badly need help reinstalling iTunes. Some one please help me. Would be much appreciated.

  • Itunes Package Installer not Installing Apple Mobile Device Support

    Okay, so I have unistalled iTunes, removed everything on my computer that apple told me to, then reinstalled iTunes.

Then it tells me to uninstall and then reinstall itunes; well i have done that literally over 10 times. All to the same result: no mobile device support.

  • ITunes installation stuck at 'Registering modules'

    Hi can someone please help?
    When I try installing iTunes on my SONY VAIO laptop.
    It gets stuck as 'Registering modules'
    I've tried several times, but no joy
    I’ve just purchased ‘an easy to use’ ipod and I can’t use it, I’m not a happy shopper

    I looked up troubleshooting tips from this site and followed them to a T. I did pretty much everything I could find that was suggested (disabling all antivirus and personal firewall measures, disabling all non-critical windows components/processes, clearing out temporary files, deleting/removing previous installations, etc.)
    just doublechecking. do you have SpyCatcher installed on that PC? if so, have you tried uninstalling SpyCatcher altogether prior to the itunes install?

  • ITunes 7 Installation Stalls when "Registering Modules"

    One board member has already suggested installing Itunes 7 on another computer and importing the installed files directly onto the 'problematic system.'
    Unfortunantly, this doesn't work fo all. Therefore I am hoping that this thread becomes a 'ground central' for this problem. Has anyone tried anything else that works? Does anyone at Apple have any idea as to why the installation stalls at this point?
    Thanks,

  • Registering Modules Freeze on Installation??

    My computer always freezes at the Registering Modules portion of the installation of iTunes 7.2. After the incomplete installation I can open iTunes by opening a music file (I do get a box warns me that iTunes was not installed properly). It even seems to work fine, it plays music and tv shows and the iTunes store works too. The problem I am having with the incomplete installation is that I can't rip music from my CD's. Is there anyone out there who knows what I can do to finally get iTunes to install completely??
    Thanks!

  • Installation hangs at "registering modules"

    I bought a brand new iPod (with a color display & video capabilities) to replace my old iPod. The new iPod came with no installation software - it said you needed to download it from the website. OK, fine, I can do that and did do that.
    I tried to install it. It hangs (aka: freezes) when it gets to the end of the installation, right at the "registering modules" portion. I looked up troubleshooting tips from this site and followed them to a T. I did pretty much everything I could find that was suggested (disabling all antivirus and personal firewall measures, disabling all non-critical windows components/processes, clearing out temporary files, deleting/removing previous installations, etc.)
    In the end: I still can't install iTunes, I still can't install iPod updater let alone use my brand new iPod. FWIW I'm not computer illiterate but I just /do not/ know what I'm doing wrong here.
    Suggestions and/or tips, please?
    Note: Crossposted here in correct forum, as suggested.

  • Upgrade failed...itunes wont start....hangs on registering modules

    have tried numerous times to complete installation, all fail at registering modules. cant uninstall previous because its not listed in add and remove programs. deleted itunes folder under program files since nothing else worked. this step didnt either.
    in task manager, noticed cpu useage is 100%. there are six instances of msiexec.exe running. four at 00 and two at 50 apiece.
    all antivirus and spyware programs disabled for install too.
    a simple "forced" upgrade to the latest version tonight and now itunes is lost and wont work.
    thanks apple.
    hp pavillion   Windows XP  

    I've had exactly the same problem (in fact I always have a problem installing i-tunes) I've tried using the MS Installation Cleanup Utility, deleting the Quicktime files from my program files and System32 folders, turned of anti virus and anti spyware and it still didnt work...
    ...But after reading your post I noticed that I too had several instances of msiexec (four in my case). While the installation was still hanging on module registration, I opened task manager and shut down the processes, as soon as I did the registration completed!
    I know it's not too scientific but it worked. It may depend on the order in which you stop the processes - give it a go, it might just work.

  • I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC.  I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.

    I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC.  I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.

    The ""not recognized for on-line use". error is associated with the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to look up and retrieve metadata for CDs.  Some users have reported that this error occurs when trying to import from CD, subsequent to upgrading to version 12.  A number of slightly different solutions have been reported (though all of a similar nature).
    Try walking through the following steps - before starting you may have to enable hidden files and folders to be viewed - in Windows 7 / Windows Explorer select Organize > Folder and search options, then on the View tab make sure that Show hidden files, folders and drives is selected.  Without this you won't see the AppData folder in C:\Users\username\
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this doesn't work:
    In iTunes, select Edit > Preferences and make a note (or take a screenshot) of your preferences settings in all relevant tabs
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following file:iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this second procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1.
    If this one didn't work:
    Exit iTunes
    Check the following folders:
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete any copies of the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    Again, if this procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1 of the second procedure. If you're still not able to retrieve CD info:
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows, select Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.  Find the entry for iTunes, right-click and select Repair.
    When this process has finished, restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If none of these have worked (and almost everything I've seen suggests you should be OK by this point), you may have an issue with the installation and configuration of iTunes itself.  If you have got this far, see turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for advice on how to remove and replace of all components of iTunes.
