ITunes and QuickTime help please?

I bought some videos in the iTunes Store and they play perfectly fine in iTunes but when I try to play them in the QuickTime Player, the video is slow with still images and a green or black screen. I just hear the audio but the video is messed up. Can you please help me? I don't think there is a problem with the video or audio format because I bought the videos from iTunes. Maybe my computer just doesn't have enough power to play the videos perfectly. Please help and thanks in advance! And remember, I have Windows Vista Home Premium.

CD/DVD Drive disappears after installing itunes and quicktime HELP!

When I have installed itunes and quicktime my cd/dvd player drive disappears?? Has anyone had this problem??

I have had exactly the same problem with my Toshiba Laptop running Vista Home Premium for 5 months. I have continually tried updating and checking this site for a fix, but haven't had a clue. My Son-in-law works for Microsoft and uses iTunes extensively and he can't figure it out either. Toshiba has no answers.
I am beginning to believe that Gates has scored one-up on Jobs by planting something in Vista that crashes the drive when you try to use Apple software.

ITunes and Quicktime issue (Please Help)

So last night I download the update for iTunes. Everything seemed to be going fine, I didn't have any problems. This morning I turn on my computer and try to run iTunes and it gives me an error message, an dwon't even open iTunes. Not only that, I can't run any Quicktime file, it gives me the same message. I downloaded the installer again and attempted to repair iTunes. It said I was sucessful, but when I tried opening iTunes or Quicktime the error still appeared. This is really frustrating, this is what I get for updating? Someone please help!

you'll probably want to run the standalone quicktime install
also, what is the error message that you are getting?

I cant find my Apps tab when I open up itunes and touch HELP PLEASE!

Hi, I've recently(finally) downloaded games for my iPod touch (1st Gen) and when I go to sync it, I cant, because there's no Applications Tab. Can anyone help me find it?
Thank you!
Michelle

As roaminggnome says, you need at least OS 2 (and possibly version 3.0 if the particular App needs it) for any Apps to work. In addition, the latest version of iTunes is 9.0.2.25. Possibly, the error message is related to your version of iTunes.
In iTunes, click on *Help/Check for Updates* which should take you to 9.0.2.25, which you need to download. Once you've done that, check *Help/About iTunes* to make sure it is now at the correct version. Hopefully, if you then connect your iPod, you will be able to restore it.
You still require an upgrade to your iPod to run Apps. It doesn't cost much, and it will be version 3. If you decide to purchase it, it will be indstalled on the iPod when you next connect it and then the Apps will transfer to it.

Optimising video for itunes and appletv - Help please!

I'm trying to understand the how itunes handles video and how it is optimised for different devices.
If i've attached my iphone and itunes syncs over a video, does it automatically optimise the version being sync on the the iphone.
I've noticed there are two options when converting a video, convert for ipod and convert for appletv.
Is there any difference between the two?
Also. I seem to remember a statement form apple saying that any movies/videos purchased or rented over appletv would be a higher quality than those bought on a mac or iphone/ipodtouch. Is this true.
Really i'm looking to understand how video works between a mac, apple tv and a iphone/ipodtouch and does it make any difference to the quality of the video which source i buy it from?
Thanks

HI Matthew,
I don't have the answer to your question directly but MacWorld has great information on just what you are searching for: http://www.macworld.com/ I have a subscription to the magazine and read it front and back and they always have information on just what you are trying to find. There's blogs on their site too. http://www.macworld.com/
The video would be QuickTime format, iPod would be MP3. Go here for info:

ITunes and Videora help please!

Hey guys, two problems.
1. Usually when I put a movie file on Videora to convert, it takes a good while especially if its a movie or something. Well I just selected to convert a movie on videora and it went from 0 to 100% in like 3 seconds but now its stuck at 100 percent complete with no time remaining but the time elsapsed keeps going and its been like that for 27:38. Everytime I try to do it again it does the same thing, is this normal or is something wrong?
2. I have some tv shows downloaded from limewire and I put them in iTunes, how do I move them to the TV shows section? When i go into info the only choices I have to change it to are Movies or Music videos. is it possible to get my tv shows in the tv shows section?

when using dvd decrypter, make sure you use the IFO mode. Then in settings, go to IFO settings and make sure there is "none" showing for file splitting. Then, on the main screen enable screen processing and uncheck everything except the movie and english. Then let decrypter do its work, and then convert with videora.

When i try to update itunes and quicktime, it stops me and says " The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" please help.

Before trying the update again, use Microsoft's Fix it solution at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall. Use it to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime. It bypasses this not uncommon problem. When the solution finishes, the selected program will be uninstalled. It can take several minutes and I have seen as much as half an hour.
After iTunes & Quicktime are uninstalled, try the update again.

I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132. Please help.

I had this exact issue. Spent over an hour on the phone with apple support, they couldn't resolve. Here is what I ended up doing, that worked.
1. Turned iTunes match off on all my iOS devices
2. Deleted the offending playlists from the iOS device they originated on
3. Started iTunes, let it run (literally) for an hour before it became responsive. First thing I did, before clicking anywere else was disable iTunes match. If I clicked anywhere, it would clock for another hour.
4. Let iTunes run overnight, by morning it had cleaned out the repeating play lists. This got my Mac/iTunes back to an operable state.
5. Restore iPhones from backup in iTunes.
What was causing my issue was a single playlist that was created on an iPhone, then suddenly showed up with several thousand duplicates on my other iPhone. The culprit playlist did not, for some reason, duplicate itself on my two iPads. Apple support seemed to think it was because the problem iPhone tried to sync the playlist to iCloud over and over again unsuccessfully, then it finally went through and populated the thousands of blank/failed playlists which then tried to propigate to iTunes and my other iOS devices. Seems like a reasonable theory.
I have not yet re-enabled iTunes match. So, no idea what will happen if I decide to go back down that rabbit hole.

ITunes and Quicktime Error after automatice Apple update, need help!!!

So I currently have a new labtop with windows vista. I have been runining iTunes for the pass 3 months already no problems. The Apple automatic update has never caused any problems till now. Quicktime needed to be updated today, and I accecpted the update, prior to that iTunes and Quicktime was working properly. Once the quicktime update was complete, it restarted my computer like usual. Then when I tried to open iTunes this error came up:
"iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
Now I checked the audio configuration and nothing was changed or anything, that has not been touched at all, so I still think it had to do with the update. The next error was came up when I tried to open Quicktime and it read:
"Runtime Error!
Program C://ProgramFiles/QuickTime/QuickTimePlayer.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information"
So as long as I have been using Quicktime and iTunes I have never encountered this, I tried to re-install but the error kept coming up after it was installed. Please help me out!

Win 7 x64 Itunes and Quicktime Running in Task Manager nothing seen! Help

Ok I'm running out of ideas- I' I have uninstalled multiple time various version of itunes. It upgraded to 10 automatically then a few days ago it wouldn't run. Looking in task manager itunes and intones helper are running. Thought a simple wipe and reinstall would solve it alas no. Been trying all week various reinstalls of different versions, all the same thing occurs, It appears to be a system wide fault. Disabled Bonjour enabled- no difference. Disabled all windows services aside form the apple ones - no difference. Started in safe mode- itunes refused to start. Gave up and reinstalled 7 and it worked until a reboot (and also it itunes store and ipod drivers for Win 7 x64 are not there) where the same probelm occured. Installed airport seeing if it would update the relevant dodgy files in Bonjour.
Getting sick of finding why this is happening and I can't;t find where this bug is, and I've spent far too long trailing through the web trying to solve this and not one single one has worked so far!
Please Help!!

Sorry, Itunes+Quicktime the intaller neither of them will open (they appear to be running in task manager however). Downlaoding the sperate intaller for Quicktime, the installer on its own, then quicktime runs and opens.

I tookyour suggestion and SUCCESS! I can now access the Itunes Store. A simple fix, and thanks so much!!.
Below is the advice you forwarded:
I found a solution to my problem.
> start menu
> accessories,
> right click on the command prompt icon and choose "run as administrator".
Once it opens, type in the following command...
netsh winsock reset
hit enter
You should get a message that the winsock reset successful and you will need to reboot your computer.
Reboot and when I reloaded itunes the store loaded fine.
Thanks again, -Dean Stoneburner

After I downloaded the most recent versions of itunes and quicktime I cannot play any videos, tutorials. Thank you for any help.

Videos will not play after downloading the mmost recent versions of Itunes and Quicktime. What can I do? The video tries to start but freezes and does not respond.

Appreciate the suggestion. I did the repair, but videos still don't play.
I tried putting quicktime in "safe mode", but that also did not solve the video-play problem.
However, I downloaded a video and that video does play.
A video may start but quickly freezes.
In itunes is the player "quicktime or itunes"?
When I open the quicktime player(its appearance doesn't look like a player with controls for play, pause, etc.).
Maybe the controls appear when play begins' however, then I try to open any song of video, I always get the same message: "Do you want to allow this website to open a program on your computer(in itunes, I assume).)
If i choose "yes" I get an error message.
I thought this additional information might be helpful, but you can just answer the original question if you have some additional ideas.
Thanks for your help.

Hi whatisitagain,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
If the movie you downloaded from the iTunes Store is not playing in iTunes for Windows, start with the troubleshooting tips in this article:

Can't Unistall iTunes or Quicktime! Please HELP!

We have used iTunes for a couple of years now and haven't had any problems until I bought my daughter an iPod Nano. The iPod requires iTunes 7 which I downloaded and tried to install but an error keeps coming up that I don't have sufficient privileges to "iPod Services" so I thought I would try to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime and then reinstall them, but when I go into the Add/Remove feature from the Control Panel and click on remove, it does nothing! And Quicktime isn't even listed in the Add/Remove section so I went to Quicktime in the "all programs" menu and tried to uninstall Quicktime from there and it tells me that Quicktime isn't installed, which is weird because it's listed in the "all programs" menu. Can anyone help me. My daughter is totally bummed because she hasn't been able to do anything with the ONLY present that she wanted for Christmas. I am running Windows XP Service Pack 2. Any help would truly be appreciated. THANK YOU!!
Windows XP

I have a similar problem, no ones seems to understand how iTunes 7 works when you had previous versions installed. Surprised you don't get them uninstalled, my XP control panel function did that part OK. I guess you can always manually delete the files but this may leave registry issues behind.

ITunes and QuickTime help please?
