ITunes Error Handling

When something goes wrong with iTunes there is no error reporting. Nothing appears to be sent back to apple! How are you going to improve this software if errors aren't reported?
When there is an error the user is given very little information and hence has less chance of resolving the problem.
The user might get an error number that means nothing to the user or could mean a number of things.
For example, my friend can't use iTunes after the first run because when they go back to open it a second time it says iTunes can't run because files are missing. It doesn't say what files. I can't fix this because I don't know what files are missing/corrupted!
The user isn't given enough information when iTunes has problems.

ok, just that I'd put it out there that iTune's error reporting for Windows seems non existant.
I have submitted stuff via feedback before, I'm not sure if it's taken serious or even considered or even read!

  • ITunes Error says it's not installed correctly.

    It says:
    The software required for communicating with the IPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software.
    I reinstalled everything and nothing works still.

    Celina, you'll need to uninstall iTunes by following the steps in the post below, then reinstall.

    Also be aware that the cause of this error message is often Windows XP's Fast User Switching, which allows more that one user to be logged into the computer at the same time. iTunes cannot handle this and will cause the error to appear. If you can live without this feature, go to Start/Control Panel/User Accounts then 'Change the way users log on and off' and remove the checkmark from Fast User Switching.
    Fast User Switching in Windows XP is not supported

  • How to take control back from service error handler in osb

    I am using osb to send data to multiple services at the same time.since x query is a procedural language if any single operation fails the flow goes to service error handler which calls a BPEL webservice and logs the error in a database but the control doesnt comes back to my code I have tried everything including RESUME,REPLY operations but all in vain similarly i cannot use service callout call to my business service because its not allowing to select my BPEL wsdl operation

    If your statement "the control doesnt comes back to my code" means you expect that your xquery will continue in processing than your expectations are just too high. :-)
    Resume action is supposed to resume the next action in the message flow. It means the action that follows the action which caused an error.

  • ITunes error 7 (windows 127) VideoToolbox.dll

    I have uninstalled, reinstalled, tried installing the videotoolbox.dll file seperately, and looked up just about everything i can find but nothing matches my exact problem or fixes it. When I try to open itunes i get 2 error messages. The first reads:
    "The procedure entry point kVTCompressionPropertyKey_ThrottleForBackground could not be located in the dynamic link library VideoToolbox.dll"
    After I click ok I get another pop up saying:

  • Itunes error

    when i try and open itunes on my laptop i keep getting the error message Itunes new library and it wont let me open it. I've tried repairing it on control panel and i've also tried installing a newer version. Nothing works.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers

    Well, I've been the victim of curious and unsolveable iTunes errors, too, but not the same as what you describe. I suspect it had something to do with updating my computer with an external drive/iPod mounted. Or it was just one of those funny little bugs from Apple. You might try backing up, repairing permissions, repairing the start-up volume, and resetting the PRAM.
    And if that doesn't work or you already tried that, well... Have a good one!
    That's a quote from my favorite cancelled cartoon show, Futurama. Bender says that to Zap Branegan as he is about to get pulled out a breech in the hull into the infinity of space. Seems like it may apply to your situation, too.....

  • Report and Alert don't executed in the error handler with a JMS proxy service

    Hi,
    I'm working with OSB 11.1.1.4.0 and I'm facing a problem with the error handler of my JMS proxy service.
    My error handler contains two main elements :
    - a Report action
    - an Alert with a JMS destination defined
    When the business service failed the message remain in the queue. It's the expected behavior.
    The problem is :
    - the report is missing
    - the alert is raised but missing in the JMS destination defined in the Alert setting.
    I've noticed if I add a Reply with Failure or Success, Report and Alert are successfully executed.
    Unfortunately the message don't remain in the JMS queue.
    What can I do in order to have my report/alert done and the JMS transaction rollback in order to keep the message in the queue ?
    I've already met this problem in the past with alsb v3 and my solution was to add Service Callout in the error handler in order to externalize these actions.
    This solution is not convenient and I hope another solution is possible.

    Inventorying workgroups can be difficult, especially when it comes to remote access and network security. Because workgroups are not centrally managed, some of the items discussed in this
    wiki article on preparing your workgroup environment may require you to visit each machine individually.
    For non-domain credentials, you do not use the <systemname>\<user> format, you simply enter the user name. Regarding how to enter the credentials, if you have an account that uses the same username and password on all machines and is an administrator
    on all of those machines, then you can enter that in the All computers credentials page of the wizard. You can also do this if they are different user names. However, if some machines have an account with the same user name, such as Administrator,
    but different passwords on each machine, you will need to use the Manually enter computer names discovery method, and then enter the information for each group or each machine.
    As you can tell, workgroup environments can quickly negate any benefit that the agentless inventory nature of MAP provides.

  • LV7.1 Strange behavior with Automatic Error Handling occuring when it shouldn't [LV 7.1 Pro on WinXP for Tablet PC's]

    [LV 7.1 Pro on WinXP for Tablet PC's]
    I recently let a rather large LV app of mine run in the development environment while I was out for a couple of days. Upon returning I found that the app had hung for ~22 hours waiting for an answer to an Automatic Error Handling (AEH) dialog proclaiming an Error 7 in New File without any indication of the VI hierarchy that called New File.  I set about ensuring that AEH dialogs would not pop up and have not been able to discover how I could have possibly received one in the first place.
    Subsequent investigation revealed:
    Neither AEH option in Options>Block Diagrams were checked.
    Network problems had occurred around the time that the app had hung.  All file paths are network paths when running in the development environment, so the cause of the error was most likely valid, even if the AEH dialog appearance wasn't.
    My app has only one instance where the New File primitive is used by me. That subVI and all others above it in the hierarchy DO NOT have the AEH property enabled.  The error out cluster of New File in my subvi is wired.
    My app has three instances where New File is called from a vi.lib vi (Open/Create/Replace File.vi, Open Config Data.vi, and Prompt Web Browser Path.vi), none of which have the AEH property enabled.  Nor does any of their calling VI's.  All three instances also have their error out cluster wired.
    A utility to examine the AEH property of all VI's (with all top level and dynamic VI's loaded) in memory reported that only 1 of 308 vi's ( RGT Does File Exists.vi from the Report Generation Toolkit) had that property true.  That vi has no subVI's other than the File/Directory Info primitive and no calling VI's in common with any of the vi's that call New File, except a top level VI.
    As long as 'Enable automatic error handling dialogs' remains unselected in options>block diagram, I am unable to get an AEH dialog for either the New File or File/Directory Info primitives in a test VI with AEH property enabled and their error out clusters unwired no matter what invalid path I pass to the functions.  As soon as the options>block diagram>Enable AEH dialogs' is selected, both primitives fire AEH dialogs with no error out wired and don't when wired. i.e. works as advertised.
    In other words I can find no reason why I should have gotten the problem AEH dialog...
    I cannot afford for this app to hang because of a network problem, other portions of the app that were running concurrently correctly handled the error and, had the AEH dialog not appeared, the app would have made corrections or shutdown in an orderly fashion.
    Any ideas?

    Very good.
    Write Characters to File.vi>Open/Create/Replace File.vi>New File
    New File throws the error.  Open/Create/Replace strips the hierarchy from the source of the error.  Write Characters passes it to the General Error Handler.  I never looked above O/C/R file in the hierarchy except for enable automatic error handling property.  The tip-off should have been to realize that O/C/R file was stripping the hierarchy from the error and look above that. 
    The real irony is that Write Characters was being used to log error cluster data to an error log file...
    Save as... Copy without updating... the OEM 'Write Characters to File' is gone from this app.
    Thanx (a bunch)

    /people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2006/02/26/restarting-processchains
    Errors in monitoring of process chains can be categorized into 4 different sections...
    Master data - Full Update
    Master data - Delta Update
    Transaction data - Full Update
    Transaction data - Delta Update.. in terms of loading of data which can be due to server shut down or system maintenance... errors due to incorrect entries in the OLTP system in which case you'll have to fix the errors in the PSA and manually load the data...
    Otherwise it can have errors on Attribute change run being locked by some other job... Aggregate Roll up failing because of attribute change run being run at the same time... Problem with hierarchies and save hierarchies...
    There can be problems with the data store activation if the ODS object contains any incorrect request sitting inside it... then, you need to delete the incorrect request and reload the data again...
    In case of Transaction Delta failure, you'll have to request for a repeat either manually in the infopackage or using the repeat option if available on right clicking the load event...
    For Master Data Delta failures, you need to do an Re-init by deleteing the previous initalization condition in the "initalization option for source systems" in the menu scheduler or reschedule the enitre chain... because, master data generally do not support repeat of last delta ...

  • ITunes update shows runtime error R6034/iTunes error 7/Windows error 1114. iTunes tells me to reinstall but I've uninstalled/restalled and get same error messages.

    After iTunes update I see this - Runtime error R6034 "application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly".  ThenUninstalled then I also get iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes error 7 (Windows error 1114).  I've tried fixes for runtime but computer says there are no errors.  I've uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes and get all the above messages.  Now when I start up my computer the runtime error pops up, but once it is closed computer works fine until I try to open iTunes.  I've even tried a system restore going back to November.  I use iTunes for audiobooks on iPod and I'm going to get desperate soon. Any suggestion?

  • ITunes error message -39

    Hi,
    I'm running an eMac 10.3.9, iTunes 6.0.4 and an iPod 30gb photo.
    I started having problems a few days before the latest iTunes update came out earlier this week, with iTunes not quitting and it not being able to find the library.
    Now with the iTunes update, I get the error message
    "the iPod cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-39)"
    I have run Disk Warrior 3.0.3 over the disk and the iPod with no change.
    I have run Onyx and Yasu to reset permissions, cron etc etc. with no change.
    There is no reference to iPod/iTunes error -39 on the Apple website nor in this forum.
    I have changed USB ports with no change.
    The iPod appears in the iTunes menu and the battery charges. I can also open the iPod disk and work with the contents.
    I have reset the iPod with no change. I used the 'hold the central button and Menu at the same time' trick, so could go one step further and delete everything from the iPod and start again.
    But that is assuming the problem is with the iPod. If the problem is with iTunes I won't be able to reload all my songs onto the iPod.
    Any hints appreciated.
    Tim
    eMac 1.25gHz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Problem resolved by restoring iPod to factory settings and reloading all the songs.
    Prior to this I deleted iTunes and downloaded a new version from the Apple site. This did not resolve the error -39 message.
    Then I took the plunge and restored the iPod. Works fine now.
    I'm posting the fix to help anyone into the future with the same problem.

    I have the same problem as many other users: updated iTunes on Windows 7 on Jan 26, 2014 and iTunes does not open.  First message "unable to locate component- MSVCR80.dll was not found" then "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (Windows error 126)". When will Apple fix this? Don’t feel like uninstalling all Apple software and then re-installing it as suggested, as I am on a terribly slow internet connection while travelling in the DR Congo.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
