  • ITunes crashes with windows 7

    Hi there
    My iTunes crashes everytime on loading on my windows 7 PC. The problem event name is AppHangB1.
    I have installed the most recent version of iTunes onto this PC. It is a new installation. I have tried to import an iTunes folder elsewhere on my network, and when I start the program I get the message that it is 'determining gapless playback' - it whizzes through some tracks and then crashes 100% of the time.
    Help!!
    Many thanks
    Andy

    Try this one and see if it helps:
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes, Sync and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    I am a long time iTunes user but a new MacBook owner! I keep the majority of my music files on an external hard drive.   I'm trying to view all those files on my MacBook through iTunes.   With windows you would go to : File/Add To Library, and iTunes would add all your selected files to your music library BUT WOULD NOT COPY THEM TO YOUR HARD DRIVE.  In other words, if the external hard drive was connected, you could listen, drag/drop, and edit the files.   When I tried the same thing with my new MacBook... it actually started coping the files to my MacBook harddrive.  I don't want that, it's millions and millions of mp3's that I don't want to keep on my computer, only my external hard drive.   Can anyone help?    I'm sure it's something easy, I'm just so new to the Mac world.   Being an iPhone owner for many many years I'm picking up things fast, but this is getting the best of me!  Help !

    In iTunes 11 uncheck the preferences setting in in the iTunes Preferences panel "Advanced > Copy Files to iTunes Media folder when adding to Library"

  • Is there a way to make itunes autostart with windows in mini mode

    Is there a way to make itunes autostart with windows in mini mode i.e the taskbar player mode where it is most less obstrusive . itune takes a lot of time to start under windows

    Just delete the same songs from your library in iTunes.  Select the first song, hold the shift key, select the last song (which will select everything in between) and press delete.

  • Can I use my Mac OS iTunes Library with Windows XP under Boot Camp?

    Hello. I have a Mac Pro with two drives, a 1TB Mac OS 10.5 drive and a 500GB Windows XP drive. I have a large iTunes library on my Mac OS drive, and I'd like to be able to access it when I'm using XP. I downloaded MacDrive hoping that I'd be able to use the same iTunes library, but I'm stuck as to what to do now. Anyone know if this is possible, and how I can get it to work?

    I have my entire iTunes library shared between Mac OS X 10.5.2 and XP (aka. Media Center 2005).
    I use an HFS+ volume accessed via MacDrive. In my case I started off with the Windows iTunes as the master (and use it to rip all my CDs). I then set the Mac side running iTunes to use the same iTunes folder as specified in Windows (this is done in Advanced Preferences). I also replaced the Mac "iTunes Music Library.xml" and "iTunes Library" file (both stored in /Users/username/Music/iTunes) with aliases pointing to "C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music Library.xml" and "C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl" respectively.
    Note: I suspect the Mac side will need write access to these two files, and as I used FAT32 for the Windows volume the Mac does have write access. However there are now at least two ways for the Mac to get write access to NTFS volumes (MacFuse being one). It may also be possible to tell iTunes to store these files themselves in a common location (not tried that).
    While it is not relevant to your query, I have also managed to share my entire iTunes library with Windows Media Player (and therefore also to Media Center 2005). All my music is in Apple Lossless format and I have a directshow filter for WMP to let it play Apple Lossless (or unprotected AAC). I also have a plugin installed to let WMP read the meta tags in MPEG4 (i.e. AAC and Apple Lossless) files.
    When I switch from Windows to Mac and run iTunes it does a brief rebuild, when I switch from Mac to Windows it again does a brief rebuild and the result is that the list of music in iTunes on both operating systems is always the same and successfully accesses the same music files on the shared volume. I rebooted back in to Mac OS X at the weekend and was happily accessing the music in Front Row.

  • Does iTunes work with Windows 8?

    Does anyone know iTunes work with Windows 8? I know 10.7 was just realeased and I wondered if it added Windows 8 support or will I have to wait for iTunes 11?
    Windows 8 is not beta anymore, it is RTM although I know a public release isn't until October.
    I just want to know if people have it working or not.
    Many thanks

    I just installed iTunes 10.7 on windows 8.
    I can confirm the issues with iTunes on the windows 8 release preview still exist.
    Meaning that iTunes does work, but some devices cannot be connected nor synced. This seems to be a driver issue.
    For all I know what does work: iPad 1, iPad 2, New iPad, iPhone 4S.
    What does not work: iPhone 4.
    These I know for sure myself, other devices may or may not work, but I didn't try them myself.

  • Is itunes compatible with windows 8.1

    is itunes compatible with windows 8.1

    Bull-pucky the latest version is compatible!  I have spent the better part of a great Sat. downloading versions all the way back to 10.7 even deleting the Library.itl   file and starting fresh.  I am running Windows 8.1 / 64-bit. . . . .went into ITunes Store today and all of a sudden NO WORDS OR DESCRIPTIONS APPEAR, ONLY PICTURES OF ALBUMS.  How's one supposed to purchase anything when you cannot see what you're clicking on?  ITunes has long had issues with Win 8.1 which I'm aware of, but THEY have done something from their end (possibly with this new $7.99 per month change coming)  I'm assuming if I had a Mac this wouldn't be a problem, but this just stinks!  I purchase a ton of music and have 16 published stations, do they not want my $$ any longer?  Not negative towards you, sorry - can you help?

  • Is itunes compatible with windows 8

    Is itunes compatible with windows 8. I get 100% disk usage when downloading from itunes store.

    I have the same issue when downloading from itunes store. 100% Disk utilization and only writing ~2.5MB. This is a Windows 8-8.1/iTunes issue. On which side? who knows... But i don't have this issue when writing to my main drive, this is not a drive issue as i tried it on many drives and even on RAID 0. I hope they get this fixed, this is driving me nuts. I have a 50Mbps x 5Mbps Internet conneciton and its bottlenecking me at 25Mbps. Lame!

  • Is iTunes compatible with Windows Data Execution Prevention?

    Is Itunes compatible with Windows Data Execution Prevention?
    Every time I open iTunes, the Data Execution Prevention Closes it Down. We Have Windows XP

    I finally got it to work by making sure that I was running itunes as the "administrator".  Here's what I did: Right click on itunes......click on 'run as'.....click on "administrator", it'll ask for a password.  If you don't know it (like me) create a new account user called "Admin" with a password.  Everytime you want to use itunes do this.  I know it's a pain but so far so good.  Hope this helps.

  • TS1717 iTunes 11 and Windows 7 (32 bit). iTunes crashes frequently (Windows message : "iTunes has stopped working and will be closed").

    iTunes 11.0.1.12 and Windows 7 (32 bit, latest version). iTunes crashes frequently (Windows message : "iTunes has stopped working and will be closed"). I may be trying to search for an App. or book (or anything else), trying to access iTunes store, checking for updates to Apps., inputting my password, etc. etc. I have uninstalled iTunes several times, reinstalled several times, but the error persists. I tried the iTunes 10 suggested fix of running in safe mode, but iTunes again crashed when I was trying to create a new ID.
    Any real help would be gratefully received. Thank you.
