ITunes 9.2 wont install fully, DVD driver not Windows compatible?

I have tried to install the 9.2 version of iTunes several times but everytime it ends up with an incomplete installment. I keep getting an error message telling me the digital signature for the CD/DVD driver isn't designed for Windows and wont install. The rest installs fine but when I open iTunes I get told the software hasn't installed properly and wont work if I want to import or burn DVDs.
I'm not sure if this is related to the installation problems but when I try and activate my iPhone (4g) the iTunes doesn't recognize the phone. It doesn't show up at all.
Anyone have any idea what's going on?

I'm not sure if this is related to the installation problems but when I try and activate my iPhone (4g) the iTunes doesn't recognize the phone. It doesn't show up at all.
It could be related. A snarl-up in device filters in the registry can cause issues with both optical drives and USB connections (for example).
My suspicion here is that you've got damaged GEAR drivers for iTunes, and they are interfering with your attempts to install iTunes.
Perhaps try a manual uninstall of ther GEAR drivers (quit iTunes first):

... and then try reinstalling iTunes. Does the reinstall go through any better?

According to that, you don't seem to have added in an UpperFilters entry for GEARAspiWDM.
Did you not do that (as per the instructions in the document on what to do if the UpperFilters entry is missing)?
Or did you revert the key after attempting a filter edit and still getting the error message?

The new version of itunes has conflited with my cd/dvd drive

It seems that the new version of Itunes has conflicted with my CD/DVD drive because when I uninstalled and re installed the itunes my drive has stopped working and I now have an error code of 19 - Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) I have tried to update drivers but I am up to date, I have installed and re installed my drive this did not solve the problem. I am now at a loss as to what to do I have had a live chat with microsoft and they could not reslove it all they wanted to do was sell me another service!!! Could installing an older version of itunes solve this issue?

See TS2308: iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install.

Windows 7 install stops at "CD/DVD driver not found"

When trying to install Windows 7 with boot camp, all goes well until it stops and gives me the "CD/DVD driver not found". I have a mid 2010 Mac Pro with a 500 GB SSD drive. I have burned a DVD at 1X from a iso file.
Thanks

Can you verify the MD5/SHA1 of the DVD with the ISO using OS X 'openssl md5' or the M$ FCIV tool? The source of your ISO should be able to provide MD5/SHA1.
OS X Example
openssl md5 ~/Desktop/GRMCPRXVOL_EN_DVD.cdr
MD5(/Users/MyName/Desktop/GRMCPRXVOL_EN_DVD.cdr)= 977f4f0f1400be91855789213e07b031

I need appleisightinstaller.exe to install the isight driver for Windows Vista running in Parallel Desktop 6 for Mac, but I don't have a Leopard DVD. What came with my Macbook Air was a flash stick "MacBook Air Software Reinstall Drive" only.

I need appleisightinstaller.exe to install the isight driver for Windows Vista running in Parallel Desktop 6 for Mac, but I don't have a Leopard DVD. What came with my Macbook Air was a flash stick "MacBook Air Software Reinstall Drive" only.

All,
A very interesting NOTE to this thread. In order to try and get the "ignore permissions" box to show up in GET INFO (so I could execute Matt the Magician's solution to file sharing issues)-- I ran the terminal command for disabling ACLs on my internal HD / start up disk (as indicated in the linked thread to BDAqua's forum).
Although I understand that this was useless for disabling permissions on the start up disk (as everyone here pointed out) and allowing me to see the "ignore permissions" check box - somehow it did seem to fix my file sharing problem...and that was the root problem I wanted solved in the first place! After doing the terminal command and a quick reboot, I went in and tested file sharing on the chosen directory and I can create new files or work from existing files in the directory, with both users being able to modify / and save from both machines and each machine sees the revisions and can build from them. Bottom line - I'm stoked and want to thank everyone for their help.
The only other tweak I made was going over to my wife's machine and instead of using her log in / password, I just used my name and password to connect to my main machine that was sharing directories. Maybe that's what fixed the problem or the ACL disable but either way...I'm up and running the way I want to be.
Hope this thread helps anyone else who has these file sharing / permissions issues with Leopard. Especially for anyone wanting to do such a simple file sharing set up between 2 computers. I wish I understood exactly which tweak fixed the problem, but at least it works the way I want now.
So happy to be done w/this one!
Thx everyone. Any additional input on what solved it is welcome, so my curiosity is quelled...

Itunes 10.4 wont install

Itunes 10.4 wont install. The installer goes through the motions and then has a fatal error. Have re-downloaded it three times and still not working. Have seen this issue raised on non apple forums, but not with any decent fixes (other than go to to a genius bar) ..... I would like an 'official' apple fix for the problem.

That's why we didn't buy iPods as media players.
If we knew more about your computer hardware we could make recommendations. It's either return the iPods or upgrade your operating system to at least Leopard so you can run iTunes 10.
To get more information about your computer, go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number.

DVD drive not visible in Windows

I installed Windows 7 on my X301 machine.
I am not seeing the DVD drive in Windows Explorer.
I used the DVD drive to install the Windows 7. And I can see the DVD Drive in the BIOS.
I tried all those options from on-line such as:
The upperfilter - did not have this setting in regedit
The lower filter - did not have this setting in regedit
Using the F8 key to turn off the security checking etc

Maybe assign a drive letter to it might be the issue the upper and lower filter issue had a tool I used once but that was a while ago

DVD Drive not being able to boot off of. Not seen in Boot Menu options in Bios.

HI Guys,
I am having a serious problem here and Lenovo Support has been bouncing me around between Hardware and Software Support.. They are extremely uneducated and I miss Dell Support. They are not educated about their own product and it saddens me. Here is my problem and there should be a simple soulution. Please help.
1) I have a IdeaPad U 430 Touch laptop. It came pre installed with Windows 8 Home. Unfortunately Windows 8 Home did not work with any of my Business Applications..
2) I completey wiped my Hard Drive using Government Software to write 1 and 0's.. I installed Winows 7 Ultimate successfully by booting off of my External USB DVD Drive.
3) After sucessfully installing WIndows 7 Ultimate I upgraded my Bios to the latest version.
4) I am able to see my DVD Drive in WIndows 7 at the Operating System Level.
5) This is the problem I can see the External USB DVD DRIVE in Windows 7 Operating System Level. Its in Windows Explorer.. However I am unable to Boot off the DVD Drive. When I reboot the latop and press F12 the External USB DVD Drive is not listed there. This is the Same External USB DVD Drive I used to wipe the Hard Drive Clean and install Windows 7 successfully.. My Bios is set to Legacy..
6) Please Help.. Someone

hi Agent0
Thanks for Posting!
Upgrading the BIOS might set off something.
Check under Exit TAB and see if you have OS optimized or OS optimal Settings.
      Change it to other OS or Disable.
      Save and Exit
Boot into BIOS again.
      Check Boot Tab if you have now a Boot mode and Boot Priority.
       Set those to Legacy / Legacy first.
Look for Secureboot and disable it.
      Save and Exit and try the F12 and see if you can have the ODD drive as an option again.
Regards

EMac External LACIE DVD Drive not reading.

eMac External LACIE DVD Drive not reading.
eMac 700 MHz running OS X 4.4
Came without DVD or modem internal
Has 256mb memory
Bought a used Lacie 1394 Firewire DVR External.
Was able to burn DVD’s and CD’s with Toast 6 Light.
Cannot find the “DVD Player” on the hard drive.
It will read data DVD.
eMac will not read any movies burnt or bought.
I was told I probably need more memory?
Thought running IDVD would fix the problem.
No Soap.
This machine was giving external modem problems before Tiger was installed.
Before we spend more money or just get ride of the eMac.
What is the DVD problem?
This same Lacie burner reads and writes DVD and CD fine with our iMac 450 DV 320mb memory. Running 9.2 and X.3

OS X 10.3.x / 10.4.x natively support data burning to external DVD drives but video payback requires software such as iDVD which isn't installed by default on models without an internal DVD drive (the installer sees no internal drive and thinks it's unnecessary). Try downloading VLC Player and see if that will let you play movies.

Which CD and DVD drives are burn compatible with 7.02.16? I want to get an USB external drive that I know Apple supports and will support with iTues.

IMac g3 dvd drive not responding

Hi,
I just installed a 4X dvd drive in my iMac g3 600 mhz. The drive is one that was taken out of an older iMac g3 so it's the matushita drive. I took out the cdrw drive, installed the dvd drive and booted up. Everything booted up fine, but when I put in a disk, it sounded like it is reading it, then it made more of the "reading" noises and after about a minute it spits out the disk. The sytem profiler recognizes the drive, so i'm a little confused on why it isn't reading the disks I put in. If anyone can help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Are you attempting to read DVD-R and/or DVD+R disks? You may need to change the brand of media that you're using in the other computer(s) burning these disks. Some drives are very temperamental when it comes to reading disks. I bought some of Best Buy's inexpensive Dynex blank DVD media and my B&W G3's Pioneer DVD±RW burner will complete the burn with verification. I can re-insert the disk minutes later and get the same result that you're hearing - spinning up and then down and then up etc. - as it attempts to make heads or tails of the same disk that it burned. If you buy a better brand of media - like Verbatim, you may have better luck. If the iMac's DVD-ROM drive works better with the +R media, then avoid using the -R media (and vice versa).
If you're having this problem with commercially-produced DVDs, then the drive itself may have a hardware problem. I'm assuming that you purchased a used DVD-ROM drive, as opposed to having swapped it from another iMac that you've always owned. Used drives can be a problem, particularly when you don't know how much usage they've had prior to being pulled and sold.
