Itunes crashes when microsoft visual studio 2012 is installed

Hello everyone!
Hope you all are ok ^^
As you see, I'm having a serious problem with iTunes and Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 .
Since I've installed MVS2012 , iTunes crashes when I open it.
I installed the latest version of both of them but no success.
I tried to change its Compatibility Mode but didn't work.
Tried to troubleshooting, no success either.
I was thinking that It was probably a windows 8 error, so I installed both in a windows 7
laptop and I have the same message and the same problem.
The message it shows is "iTunes has stopped working... " and it only shows a Close Program button
I thought it made this problem when both were opened, so I closed MVS2012 and run
iTunes alone, but didn't work either.
I also tried to reinstall iTunes from an earlier version to the newest version. Don't work.
But iTunes does work when it is opened once it's installed (first use), and when it's closed and re opened
it crashes.
Could someone help me with this problem? I really appreciate it ^^
Ask me if you need more information. Thank you ^^

Resolved.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS 5.1 Application develped in Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Visual Basic failed

    I just developed an Adobe Illustrator CS 5.1 Application in Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Visual Basic. It works fine on my Windows 7 Professional 32-bit Operating System. But when I tried to run it on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System which also has Illustrator CS 5.1 installed, the application crashes when it runs to the code which calls Illustrator Library Objects.  The error message is System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'WindowsApplication_GangArt.Module2' threw an exception. ---> System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'Illustrator.Application'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{95CD20AA-AD72-11D3-B086-0010A4F5C335}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)). I wonder why the application cannot fined Illustrator on the new 64 bit computer.

  • To the devs: New version of ITunes crashes projects in Visual Studio

    So there's some issues involving the newest ITunes release:

    Basically, programs people have created that have been working properly are now getting weird exceptions when having ITunes opening. I'd say this is more of an ITunes bug than Visual Studio.

    Hi,
    I see your log and find main errors below:
    ExecuteError: Package (vs_expbsln_x64_msi_73) failed: Error Message Id: 25541 ErrorMessage: Error 25541.Failed to open XML file C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\CONFIG\machine.config, system error: -2147024786

    From your error it seems this file C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ v4.0.30319\CONFIG\machine.config may corrupt. You can see the thread:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/officesetupdeploy/thread/86787c69-5909-4885-843e-b8b977e5cc33
    Some person came across the problem, and I recommend you can try the method in the above link:
    I ran into the same error numerous times installing Office 2010 on Vista where machine.config was not found.  Specifically:
    Error 25541. Failed to open XML file
    C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.config, system error: -2147024786
    Setup failed. Rolling back
    I tried both approaches above and neither worked.
    My final solution was simple: there was a file in the directory called machine.config.default.  In a DOS box I copied that file to create machine.config.
    The office 2010 install worked fine after that "fix".
    If that’s cannot solve your problem, you can try to check the integrity of .NET Framework 4.0 on your system:

  • Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2012 keeps crashing at random times

    This has been occuring very frequently that the Visual Studio 2012 (4.5..51209) keep crashing during build or Publish.  I also looked at the check box for Enable extended Transact-SQL verification as unchecked. This is happening more frequently.
    Does anyone has any clue why this keep crashing?
    Thanks

    Hi Mubeen, please verify you have updated to the latest SQL Server database tooling bits
    from the download page and see if this still occurs for you.
    If this issues is reproduceable on the latest SSDT bits, I'd suggest capturing the event log for what is going wrong and then opening a connect
    bug for this issue at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/CreateFeedback.aspx and
    use the category "Developer Tools(SSDT, BIDS, etc.)". We're trying to track all bugs through connect so that you can tell when we have fixed the issue and we can request
    more information. Please include the event log (instructions on this below) plus any other useful information you can provide, such as an example of exact steps to reproduce the problem.
    Gathering an Event Log for SSDT
    For diagnostic purposes we would like you to gather an event log for the issue that you are experiencing in SSDT. In order to gather a log and send it to a member of
    the team, please follow the steps below.
    Open a new command prompt as Administrator.
    Run the following command
    logman create trace -n DacFxDebug -p "Microsoft-SQLServerDataTools" 0x800 -o "%LOCALAPPDATA%\DacFxDebug.etl" -ets
    logman create trace -n SSDTDebug -p "Microsoft-SQLServerDataToolsVS" 0x800 -o "%LOCALAPPDATA%\SSDTDebug.etl" -ets
    Run whatever the target/issue scenario is in SSDT.
    Go back to the command prompt and run the following commands
    logman stop DacFxDebug -ets
    logman stop SSDTDebug -ets
    The resulting ETL files will be located at %LOCALAPPDATA%\SSDTDebug.etl & %LOCALAPPDATA%\DacFxDebug.etl and can be navigated to using Windows Explorer.
    Please attach this file when creating the connect bug
    NOTE - These logs will only be used by Microsoft product team members in order to better diagnose the problem you are experiencing
    with SSDT and will not be shared elsewhere. If you want to make sure that there is no private information in your ETL file, the SSDTDebug.etl file can be opened and analyzed using the Windows Event Viewer.
    To do this, open the Windows Event Viewer application. In the right-hand panel, select Open Saved Log. Navigate to the location where you saved the log, open, and review
    the contents of the trace.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Thanks,

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • When I inherit Form with binding DataSet why then designer find mdb file in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\'

    When I inherit Form with binding DataSet why then designer find mdb file in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\' 
    Do I have to anything to change in my application settings or what I am doing wrong?
    When I inherit a plain Form with no binding DataSet then is all ok.

    I finally saw my longingly expected inherited window containing binding dataset.
    But only by way that I put mdb file right in to the this damn path.
    "c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\Zdrojove Data\ISMS2003.mdb" 
    In addition mdb file shall be clear too of password.
    We have many windows in our application and we have to work strongly good with inheritance of Form Classes.
    But how I will explain to my Boss if he click on that inherited window and will see this break window?
    Though I will advice to my Boss that hi have to copy too that MDB files to this damn path,
    but the best way could be to find what I need to change that this inherited windows shows without copy this MDB files to
    'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\'
    When I check the settings for DataDirectory every paths looks good.
    Even if I set password for the mdb file I almost see only broken designer window.
    Only by copy this MDB file without his password to this path
    'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\'
     I can see this inherited window right.

  • Failed to repair Microsoft Visual C   2012 Redistributable Package (x64) when trying to download Photoshop CC, InDesign CC and Illustrator CC.

    So I'm running Windows 8.1 on a laptop and I was installing updates to CS6 modules. It was successful in updating other apps but when I tried to update desktop apps Photoshop CC 2014, Illustrator CC 2014, and InDesign CC 2014 it stopped short saying it had failed to repair Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (x64). What do I need to do?

    The Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (x64) component of your operating system is damaged.  You will need to reinstall it.   You can find more information at Latest Supported Visual C++ Downloads.

  • C# expressions being lost when designing workflows in Visual Studio 2012

    When designing workflows in Visual Studio 2012, we are consistently running into a situation whereby clicking on the property value input box of an activity property, results in any existing value being cleared out and a message appearing which says "C:\
    ..... \obj\x86\Debug\TemporaryGeneratedFile_E7 .... D3.cs  This file has been modified outside of the source editor. Do you want to reload it?".
    Regardless of whether we choose Yes or No at this point, the property value has been erased and we cannot recover it. It happens more often than not. 
    We've also noticed that selecting the ellipses button within the activity property value input box results in a blank input box - even if a c# expression is clearly visible within the property window.
    We have installed the cumulative update for workflow manager 1.0 and are using Visual Studio 2012 with TFS 2012. 

    I have also noticed the same issue. Though sometimes you find the property box empty, if you close property window and open it again, it shows the value. There's few irritating issues in Visual studio 2012 workflow designer.
    About changing the file outside editor message, I've noticed if I open the workflow xaml file in xml editor inside visual studio with 'open with', then I get started the message.
    Thanks,

  • Add-in for Access 2010/2013 with Visual Studio 2012 (2013 Preview)

    Hello!
    Am i right: Microsoft wants to kill Access in favor of Azure/SQL stuff?
    I was unable to find any Projects in Visual Studio 2012/2013 to create an Addon for Access 2010 or 2013 (only Word, Excel, Outlook).
    There is even no Microsoft.Office.Tools.Access.ApplicationFactory
    to install add-in to Access App.
    Any solutions for VS 2012?
    Or i should use outdated Shared Add-in with VS 2010?
    Thank you!

    Sorry Donald M from Microsoft,
    You need to rethink that response.  IDTExtensibility2 is an outdated Office 2003 technology. 
    Everything EXCEPT the ThisAddIn.designer.cs reference to ApplicationFactory _factory compiles when you switch references in another Office application's VSTO project template to msaccess and dao libraries.  Even the Access icon shows up in Visual
    Studio 2013.  The only reason a Ribbon.xml project will not load into Access is that Microsoft hasn't provided the Microsoft.Office.Tools.Access DLL for it.  If you leave the Factory reference pointing to global::Microsoft.Office.Tools.Factory,
    the add-in compiles but will not load.
    MICROSOFT: Please provide us the missing Factories for MSAccess and OneNote.

  • Launching VB6 Editor after installing Visual Studio 2013 results in "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio..."

    I have had various versions of Visual Studio installed beside Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise for some time with no problems, most recently Visual Studio 2012 Premium.
    I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Premium, and now every time I open VB6 I get a dialog that says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013" that shows a progress bar. After it finishes (30 seconds or
    so), it launches again and again and finally VB6 will open. This happens with each instance of VB6, regardless if I've already done it once and never run VS2013 in between.
    If I cancel the dialog, I get this error message in a dialog: "Error 1712. One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." Several more "Please wait"...
    dialogs will appear and if I continue to cancel, eventually I'll get the VB6 editor. It appear to work fine despite the error messages.
    It seems to me that the VS2013 installer flagged some dll's or other files to be rolled back whenever starting VB6. It doesn't appear to be necessary, and I'd like to avoid playing the "Please wait" wack-a-cancel-button game before launching each
    instance of VB6 (or waiting several minutes for no reason). So how do I fix this?
    Note: I've seen something similar happen in Outlook on a different PC when upgrading from 2010 to 2013. The same sort of "Please wait"... dialog would appear each time I opened Outlook. Judging by the "similar" questions that popped up when
    entering this forum post, I'd say this is a general problem with upgrading older versions or installing newer versions of major Microsoft software side-by-side.

    Scroll a small bit down, and there is a post by Barry Wang explaining that you need to use event viewer to find out what is missing. Anyway, I opened event viewer, then open VS 6, then hit refresh in the event viewer (under Windows Logs -> Application)
    and saw a warning message from MsiInstaller. It gave me the following message:
    Detection of product '{9C593464-7F2F-37B3-89F8-7E894E3B09EA}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Professional_x86_enu', component '{E3FF99AA-78B9-4A06-8A74-869E9F65E1FE}' failed.  The resource 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_GAC\' does
    not exist.
    I opened an elevated command prompt, I navigated to the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework folder and verified that 'URTInstallPath_GAC' didn't exist, and then I did "md URTInstallPath_GAC".
    Closed and reopened VS 6, and it instantly opened - no "Please wait" message.
    Now this may or may not be the same problem you are having (problem is - I have had it happen on two separate computers now with VS 6 and VS 2013 installed), but it should point you in the right direction. In fact, you should be able to use the Event Viewer
    for anytime the "Please wait" message shows up for any application, and then once there find out what is really missing.
