ITunes on Windows Tablet PC?

Hello -
I am considering buying a used Tablet PC for a home jukebox. Does current iTunes run on Tablet PC - or is there a way to get a version that does?
Thanks.

It should since the OS on the Tablet PCs is just XP AFAIK.

I have a new Windows tablet computer with limited hard drive space, and cannot transfer my itunes library to the hard drive. Can I run t media from an external hard drive? If so, how do I transfer my files?

I have a new Windows tablet computer with limited hard drive space (32 GB), and cannot transfer my itunes library to the hard drive. Can I run itunes from an external hard drive? I have tried to follow some of the directions on this site, but am having no success. Thanks.

iTunes will run fine with the media on an external drive.
However, I suggest that a tablet computer with a tiny hard drive is not ideal as the primary computer for managing an iTunes library, even a small one. If you have another machine, perhaps a big, boxy, inexpensive old desktop with a decent amount of storage, that might be a better choice.

ITunes and Windows 8

Using it on a tablet that had Win 7 (and it ran fine). Switched to Windows 8 when RTM came out (tablet certified for Windows 8). When I rented a couple of movies after about 10 minutes of watching the movie would play horribly slow and the sound would cut out. Restarting iTunes fixes it for about another 10 minutes.
Any word on iTunes and Windows 8? Apple has had enought time to test (with the dev and consumer previews being out for several months and RTM was at least a month ago) and deploy a version ready for Windows 8 at launch date.....

No one here would have any way of knowing as we're users like yourself.

I just got a new Windows tablet. I set up Home Sharing between it and my desktop Mac but I can't seem to get playlists from my desktop into the tablet. Can I do this by plugging my tablet into my desktop via a USB cable?

I just got an HP Stream 8 tablet with Windows on it. I have a Mac desktop running 10.6.8. I set up Home Sharing by making sure both had the same version of iTunes and I authorized the new tablet (desktop already was). (I haven't exceeded the number of authorized computers.) I would like to take some of the playlists I have on my desktop Mac and copy them into iTunes on the tablet. I hooked up the tablet to my desktop with a USB cable but wasn't able to get it to copy. I do not have WIFI....is there a way to do this by just having the tablet hooked up via the USB cable? If so, can someone please talk me through the steps necessary to do that? Thanks!

Did you erase the machine and set it up with your accounts or is the previous user still on it?
Please note that Mountain Lion is far from being an app, it is your Macs operating system.

So frustrated with the overwhelming number of bugs in iTunes for Windows...

I hate to come across as a Negative Nellie but this program is frustrating me so much!!!
Summing up the major burrs under my saddle:
Won't play ANY movie file. Just freezes and hangs.
Can't download updated apps without freezing and hanging.
Can't access iStore without (take a guess?) freezing and hanging.
Synching to my iphone or ipad causes itunes to hang for indeterminate periods of time. MOST times it will come back after a few minutes.
Often can't complete synch because of one of those 'undefined' errors.
iTunes has mysteriously dropped whole audiobooks, movies, ebooks, and albums out of my library, even though the files are still there.
iTunes can't rescan its own media library and add files back.
Don't even get me started on DRM. I can't play back movie files and TV episodes that I own from my iTunes directory to my smart TV because iTunes won't recognise the TV and allow me to authorise it as a device I own. So I'm stuck playing back video that I've paid for through Quick Time or VLC media player on my Laptop instead of on my 1080p FullHD 55" TV!!!
I know my way around my PC, I've tried all the relevant tips on the Apple site to no avail. I've removed and reinstalled iTunes; no change. I've tried 'repairing' iTunes under add/remove programs in Control Panel; no change.
I'm running Windows 8.1 on a Toshiba Sattelite P870.
I'm sick and tired of having to coddle this piece of flaky code to try and make it work. It's rubbish. It has NEVER worked properly under Windows and it seems to be getting WORSE every time it's updated.
I would really like to know if Apple are going to put things right with this program once and for all, or do I drop all my iDevices right now and switch to a Windows tablet and smartphone? I'm 3 generations Apple on my iPhone and 2 on my iPad. This is seriously getting to the point where I will walk away from Apple forever. What good is having the devices if the software that is SUPPOSED to integrate them all has more bugs than a bait store?

You can give feedback directly to the Apple folks if you like. (We're a user-to-user community, so we don't have any control over the bug-fixing process, and there's no guarantee that the relevant Apple folks will see this topic.) Here's a link to the iTunes product feedback form:

Installing itunes to windows 8 RT

My windows 8Rt tablet will not let me download itunes. i have tried using a remote app but nothing is working.
All i get is cannot download and to find app in windows store. I don't know which app to use.

There is no version of iTunes for Windows RT. Either deal without iTunes or buy a computer running full Windows or OSX.

Latest version of iTunes on Windows 8 not recognizing iPad 2

I recently upgraded my iTunes to the latest version on Windows 8. The previous version backed up my iPad 2 and my new iPad. After installing the new version of iTunes only my new iPad is recognized in the program. What can I do to resolve this?

Disregard above question. I purchased a new cable for the iPad 2 to see if that corrects the problem and yes now iTunes recognizes the tablet.

ITunes for Windows freezes when importing a library. I have a large but not huge library of mostly iTunes purchased music on two authorized computers and would like to sync the files, export the library as a playlist, and import it on the other computer.

I am running iTunes for Windows 10.2.2 on Windows 7 Home. I have my iTunes library on both this computer and another authorized machine running Windows 7 Professional. I have a large but not enormous library, as I'm one of those people who doesn't pirate, use torrents, borrow from a dozen friends, or whatever other shades of gray you might imagine. It's mostly iTunes purchases with my old CD collection imported. I have started using the following technique to sync my libraries between my two authorized computers, an ability which you can probably all agree should one day be added to iTunes -- that would be different from Home Sharing, because the music would be stored locally and thus available on the road. With the added benefit of the entire library being backed up on the other machine in real-time. Anyway, when I switch from my desktop to laptop and vice versa, I use the following technique:
Connect both machines to the home network. One machine is the "Active" machine, which has most recently been used for iTunes media, purchases, ratings, etc.
On the "Active" machine, File-->Library-->Export. Save the file as "Library.xml" on the shared drive of the other machine.
Right-click "Library.xml" where it's been saved, and open another file that has two lines in it: The root path of the iTunes library on one machine and the root path of the iTunes library on the other machine.
Do a find/replace all in Notepad to make the library XML file point to where the files will be saved on the "Inactive" machine.
Run Microsoft SyncToy to synchronize the files between both music libraries; the most recent files win. This avoids copying the entire multi-gigabyte library over the network.
Open iTunes on the "Inactive" machine.
Go to Music, Select All, Delete. Keep files.
Do the same for Movies, Music Videos.
Go down to Playlists, select the top one, hold down the delete button until they're all gone.
File-->Library-->Import Playlist. Choose the "Library.xml" file you saved.
First a status bar comes up that says, "Importing library." It has the continually-scrolling progress bar, not the one that starts on the left and steadily creeps right. Then after about 30 seconds, that clears out. Wait. Typically a few minutes. Eventually a status bar will pop up saying something like, "Evaluating gapless playback information," or something like that.
The "Inactive" computer is now the "Active" computer. I can now play my library, it has all my playlists and metadata from the other machine.
Delete all the duplicate playlists named "Music," "Genius," "Purchased," and "iTunes DJ."
Well, I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2.2 a few days ago and tried to do this again like I've done it dozens of times before. Now, iTunes just goes unresponsive after the library import. It got through the "Importing library" bar to the long wait and stopped. I can still multiprocess and use other programs, but iTunes is hovering back there not responding to clicks. Task Manager doesn't seem to think iTunes is using my CPU, and I don't see my hard drive rattling. Any thoughts on why iTunes might hang up when importing a large library?
... Also, please help lobby Apple to come up with a network sync tool built into iTunes for a user with multiple authorized computers. Something different than Home Sharing so I can pull my laptop off the network and still have the synced library with me. And all my metadata changes will sync. The technique I use seems a little kludgey, don't you think?

iTunes isn't an editor. You need an app that's intended for editing audio files, like Adobe Audition (http://www.adobe.com/products/audition.html) or Audacity (free in the App Store).

Ipod not recognized by itunes or windows.

Hi there, I have an 80gb Ipod classic which is not recognized by itunes or windows. The "Use iTunes to restore" message appears on my ipod but when I connect it to my pc itunes does not recognize it. Windows shows a message informing me that I need to format the drive but is then unable to do so. Ipod will not go into disk mode either. I have tried reinstalling itunes and using the ipod in a different usb drive. I have also connected it to a mac and a windows pc but nothing happens. I have tried to use the diagnostics mode on the ipod but that will not work either. I am wondering if my ipod's hard drive is corrupted.

Hello,
My iPod is not being recognized by iTunes or internet
explorer. It used to, but not anymore. It just
dosent show up when I connect it to my computer.
Also, the "do no disconnect" sign does not appear on
my iPod when I connect it. It is still able to
recharge, though.
have u tried a different usb port?
I read that I have to restore it. I have tons of
songs in my iPod that I do NOT want erased! How can
I back these songs up? I have some songs on my iPod
that are from another person's computer, so if they
get erased, the songs are gone forever.
try this http://www.copypod.net/

How to fix applepushservice.dll issues for downloading iTunes on Windows 7 64 bit

I recently had iTunes crash on my home PC, Windows 7 64-bit. I have tried several attempts to uninstall and reinstall the program and it still does not work and I receive error messages. The latest: The program can't start because ApplePushService.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem. Problem is, the articles that I have seen state this is an Unknown source and my firewall will not allow it to be installed. The original error was a Windows Error 7 (registry & .dll issues). Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

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 the 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.
