ITunes 7 won't work with computer games

I have tried playing numerous computer games while listening to music from my iTunes ver. 7. The result was an immediate disruption of music and a broken, scratchy sound as well as popping noises at fast intervals. After immediately exiting the games, the music quality improved slightly. One game is Battlefield 2 by EA Games, another is EV Nova by Ambrosia, and lastly I tried Freelancer by Microsoft. My system is a 3 GHz Pentium 4 with 2 GB of ram and 200 GB of hard drive space. I was able to play these games with iTunes 6, but not since I upgraded to iTunes 7. Help me please.

First off, how about using Software Update (under the blue apple) to make sure you have the latest software for your computer.
Then, follow the instruction here to test your nano in a new user account:

It says it cannot removed the older version of iTunes.
Doublechecking before proceeding ... what's the precise text of that message, please? (There's a couple of different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

GTX 780m won't work with my games

I just bought a new laptop (MSI GT60 2OD-261 3k Edition IPS). I put Everquest, Everquest Next Landmark, Elderscrolls Online, Dota 2, and League of Legends. Even though my 780m is set to default. I cannot get these games to use my 780m. It only shows my Intel HD Graphics 4600. I have updated the drivers, right clicked the games and chose which video card I want it to run. Still it only uses the Intel Graphics.
I also cannot use my "G" button on this laptop. From what I'm reading its supposed to put the processor in turbo mode.
I have Upgraded my processor to the i7 Intel 4900MQ. So I had to update all my drivers from MSI's website and Intel/Invidia website. My Intel graphics driver is up to date and my Nvidia driver is up to date. I have downloaded all drivers from MSI's website for Windows 8.1 Pro x64.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this it would be greatly appreciated.

1) In order to use the iPod you need iTunes 7.0.2 or later.
2) You need to meet the following minimum system requirements to install iTunes.
3) Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4.
4) The iPod is not going to work with this computer until it meets those minimum system requirements.

5.1 sound won't work with computer speakers, not sure

Hi, I am having problems getting 5. surround sound to work with my SB Li've! 5. card and Cambridge Soundworks DTT3500 Dolby Digital system. The speaker system works fine, I've tested it with my DVD player through an optical cable hookup. The Dolby Digital light is supposed to light up when its receiving a Dolby Digital 5. signal, and when connected straight to the DVD player via optical cable, it does light up.
But, when connected to my Li've! 5. card, it does not light up. I am using CyberLink PowerDVD which supports 5. sound, and I'm using the Digital DIN port in the back of the speaker system. The cable goes from the orange digital out port on the SB Li've! 5. card to the Digital DIN port on the Cambridge speaker system. The hook up should allow transmission of 5. signal, so maybe something is wrong software side. I might be missing a setting or something, on the player maybe or elsewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I have been in the computer repair business for over years and work on main frame computers for the government and there are companies that back their products and there are companies that do not. Creative, in my opinion, is not a company that likes to back their hardware or software drivers. I remember in the old Sound Blaster 6 days of DOS and conflicting IRACs and not getting any help with their auto answer service. In my opinion, one of the reasons they have all this software driver issues, is they more than likely use another source to write the software and therefore the software writers do not talk to the hardware developers. Believe me this is very common as I see it all the time with the government contracted computer companies and their special software. What a mess. If? software developers do not talk to their hardware people on known issues then we get the results. Part of the problem is us consumers and our willingness to except anything when it comes to computers. I read of people staying up all night trying to resolve one little issue and will still except a degraded product. Do not think for a second these companies do not know this and use this backwards stupidity to their advantage. I would never give any computer product that much of my time because my time is money as well.
Anyway, why do we all buy Creative? The answer is very simple. If you have ever herd the newest X-Fi sound cards with its 24 bit crystallizer on a motherboard it likes, well there is nothing like it. I have mine (I own this sound card as well) hooked up to a high end stereo and if my wife would let me I could blow out my windows in my study. That is when it is working and not squealing. The problem of course is we must get this wonderful sounding card on a computer it likes to work without squeaking or squawking. Lets face it, Creative is the only game in town when it comes to sound and I love great sound. shellback

Hi, I am brand new to my ipod and i plugged it into my PC to get it started, then i plugged it into a friends mac to get his songs- now when i plug it back into my computer it says it is linked to another itunes library and asks if i want to link it back to this one and replace all of the music. I do not want to loose all of the music but want it reconnected to my itunes with the music on my computer and taking the music on the ipod (from my friends itunes) into my itunes. What do i do? I apologize if this is something posted before,i couldn't find an answer. Please help!! thanks

That above article will not resolve the issue. It explaines it clearly in the article.
"Using an iPod formatted for Macintosh on a Windows computer is not supported. Using an iPod formatted for Windows on a Macintosh computer is not supported."
this means that it won't work with out a 3rd party tool. You HAVE to restore it if you take it between different OS. That document works only if your taking it between windows machines or all mac machines.

My computer is asking to update firefox. I want to know if this will automatically update to 4.0. I don't want 4.o because when I added it before it wouldn't work with a game I play.

My computer is asking to update Firefox. How can I find out if this will update to 4.0? I don't want 4.0 because I did it before and it wouldn't work with a game I play. I want to update if necessary. What info do I need to provide to get an answer to this question?

It should tell you what version it is trying to update to. There is an update to Firefox 3.6.16 available. If you prefer you can download and run the Firefox 3.6.16 installer available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
You can get 10.6.8 here:

After installing itunes, my desktop computer doesn't recognize my internal cd rom/burner. I removed itunes and it works ok and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again. I went into the windows registry files and deleted the lower filter which is one correction for this and it worked ok until the next itunes upgrade and now it won't work again. If anyone knows what to do please let me know. My device manager shows a code "10"

That suggests an AFS.sys issue. But we'd better doublecheck.
Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". (If you're running iTunes 11.0.x you'll need to bring up your menu bar first to see the Help menu.) Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:
... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here. (Use your Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut to paste.)

My new iPod won't work with iTunes 6 but...

Is it safe to get iTunes 7 yet?
Because I tried it before but it made the music dodgy.
So I eventually got 6 back, but it won't work with my new iPod.
Help?

I also had problems with iTunes 7 when it first came out, but 7.0.2 is working for me and seems to have fixed a lot of the problems. It's worth a try if you need iTunes 7 for your new iPod.
