Itunes not properly intalled message

On opening Itunes i get the message "Itunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CD's you need to reinstall Itunes". I am able to import a CD without any problem but not able to burn a CD. I have done a clean uninstall by removing Itunes, Quicktime, Apple software update, Apple mobile device support, Bonjour and Apple application support. I have now tried this three times. I understand that it could be a problem with the GearAspiwdm.sys driver. I don't appear to have this driver installed. I have tried the gear support site and downloaded the driver installer but don't seem able to locate the gear driver anywhere on the system. Can any one help? I would be eternally grateful!
When i managed to load the gear drivers my PC would not recognise any CD/DVD drive on my system.

It's like you're getting two different familiar error messages cut in half and grafed together.
Let's try seeing if this document helps (given that it's relevant to the "other half" of your message):

Get error message that says, "ITunes not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CD's, you must reinstall Itunes."

Hello:
I have installed Itunes on my new Windows 7 based computer (64 bit) and get the following error message everytime the program opens, "ITunes not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CD's, you must reinstall ITunes." So, I have removed ITunes, Quick Time and Apple associated software, twice, from my computer and reinstalled the latest version (10.4.1) but get no fix to the problem. ITunes will import CD's but will not burn them with this error in place. Anybody know how to fix this problem?

if you have 64bit os this is problem:
Any 64-bit version of Windows is not supported so you should expect certain things not to work. From Apple's iTunes page the Windows requirements are:
32-bit editions of Windows XP or Vista
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later required for Apple TV or iPhone
500 MHz Pentium class processor or better
QuickTime 7.1.6 or later (included)
256MB RAM
Supported CD-R or DVD-R drive to burn CDs
Broadband Internet connection (DSL/Cable/LAN) for buying and streaming music

What's the precise text of your error message, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might possibly be getting.)

After ejecting a disk plugged into the USB port using Finder, I am now getting "The disk was not properly ejected" message. This didn't used to happen. How can this be corrected?

When you right (control) click on the disk and click eject "disk name", do you pull it immeadiatly or wait a few seconds for it to unmount? Try waiting and see if you get the same message. If you do, when the disk is connected go to applications/utilities/disk utility, after opening DU, select the volume in question from the left side bar and try a permissions repair, you may also run verify disk and see if it comes up with any errors (they will be in red)

I am unable to open the latest update (10.4) iTunes not properly configured

when I attempt to open it says iTunes was not properly configured and then close - I can't reinstall 10.2 since 10.4 in installed; it won't repair because mid-way thorugh it pops up "itunesresources is not an accessible file... make sure you have access to this file" and stops the repair.
any thoughts?
I HAVE used 10.4 since upgrading - I shut down my computer; when I rebooted a few days later, this is what happened...

Hey there Mambo822,
It sounds like you are unable to open iTunes after installing a recent update. I would recommend the troubleshooting in the following article:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Itunes not opening error message too cryptic for me

Just got itunes installed on my laptop. Did it all correctly (admin rights, etc.). It ran fine yesterday, now today I try to open it and get a message: Instruction at "0x00008200" referenced memory at 0x00008200. The memeory could not be "read"
OK, I admit I'm not a wiz at computers, but this is too cryptic for me, any help out there???

Might fix your problem:
Through Finder navigate to your users directory
Select the folder "Music"
Press CMD-i
An info windows will pop up
Scroll down to the very bottom
If necessary expand "Sharing & Permissions"
Is your username listed with Privilege "Read & Write"?
Tick the little lock at bottom right - enter your PW
If necessary correct your privileges
In any case press the little gearwheel - "Apply to enclosed items ..."
ok
reboot

Itunes not opening - error message that file is locked....

Hi,
itunes message - 'library file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file.'
I've tried everything i can find online to repair this issue, but itunes wont open still. I saw a message for this exact message in 2006 about moving itune lib to desktop and then back into itunes folder, but that hasn't worked. Please help.

ITunes not properly installed error...

Hi,
I'm running iTunes version 7.0.2.16. Yesterday when I booted iTunes it told me that it was not installed properly and it will not be able to rip or burn CD's... This is the first time this has ever happened and I've had iTunes installed on this computer for a while...
I have Windows XP Media Center.
My Quicktime version is 7.1.3.
Do I really need to reinstall iTunes? If so, is there any way to keep my playlists, etc. without having to lose them and start over?
Thanks so much for any input.
Scott

I don't think this one is a variation of the device filter troubles, Littlebirt.
Checking something from the diagnostics:
+Virtual drives can sometimes interfere with reading and writing CDs in iTunes. If this is a virtual drive and you are having problems with other drives, try uninstalling the virtual CD application.+
Is there any virtual drive software (like, say, Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120%) installed on the PC?

ITunes not properly sorting artists?

I sort my iTunes main music folder by Artists (A-Z) and for some reason, one of my artists' songs that start with an 'L' (Lana Del Rey) is in the middle of all the 'D' artists. The remainder of her songs are properly in the 'L' section, but I CANNOT figure out why this one song is in the 'D' section. I know it seems trivial, but it is actually driving me insane. I tried removing the song and re-adding it, but that did not work. I made sure all the information was consistent in the 'Get Info' area, but to no avail. Does anybody have any idea why this is happening, and/or a possible solution?
Thanks.

There isn't an album artist set, or a sort artist? If something was entered as Del Rey, Lana this would end up sorted by D.

ITunes not responding error message when iPod is connected

I cleaned up all of my music on my external hardrive. I moved the cleaned up librery to iTunes. I connected my 30G iPod and I reset the content on the iPod, but now I can not sync with the computer and Itunes frezes and gives me an error saying that Itunes is not responding. This happens everytime I connect my iPod; now I have no music on the Pod.

hi joyful!
just checking. reboot the PC, and prior to launching itunes or plugging in the ipod, bring up your Task Manager to the "processes" tab.
is there an iTunesHelper.exe running in your processes?

Backed up songs to external drive and uninstalled iTunes and then re-downloaded software. Same error.Repeated this several times and have lost the will too live.

If TweakUI can’t see Music Folder see this thread:

But you should be able to work around the issue by starting iTunes with the shift key held down and either choosing or creating iTunes Library.itl in My Music\iTunes
