ITunes problem in SL (Just me?)

Hey,
I have a late 2008/early 2009 unibody macbook pro, 2.4ghz, 2 gb ram. When I use the play/pause media button (F8) it automatically opens iTunes. Is there a way to turn this off, as I use the media buttons for other applications? Is it a bug for everyone or just me?
Thanks for any help

Hi,
did you ever find a solution to this problem? I just got a laptop running Vista and I am having the weird audio break up problem. Stuff plays fine on windows media player, but I can't get it to sound ok on iTunes, which I mostly use now that i have an ipod. My music is on an external drive, but it skips when I have it on the regular laptop harddrive also. I'm wondering if I imported it 'wrong' somehow. I just dragged it into the library, which always worked on XP, but maybe vista doesn't like when I do that.
If you have any info, could you email me at tpunk (at) riseup.net? Thank you!

    Resolved!
    After contacting Apple, I received a reply from their engineers:
    Copy QTMovieWin.dll from:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    And that did the trick.

  • ITunes 7.5 wont start & iTunes 7.4 works just fine

    Hi,
    i dont know what to say, im just ******... I bought a new iPod nano, and at first i realized that i basicly cant upload music...***?.. I took some books i got, and realized that i need a program, called iTunes.., ok, whatever, so, i download iTunes 7.5-the last version, install it, without any problem, and leave the button where it says Start iTunes when this installation is complete, or something like that, so the installation completes, and i wait, and wait, and nothing happends... I go to my task manager-processes and realized that iTunes is workn, just fine, some ram but no cpu needs... SO ***?, so i check if there are any error logs created by itunes, but my search just wasted my time... So, what to do next, i decide to grab some older iTunes i guess, so i download iTunes 7.4.0, and wolla it works, although it says: Windows system components that iTunes requires are missing or corrupted, so i say, finally, an error so that i know what to do but i click continue and see there iTunes starts, so i plug my iPod, and it works, unbelievable, but, a huge error, ITS SLOW, SO SLOOOOOW, and i upload a movie and its syncing and syncing and syncing and syncing although the iPod doesnt sync!!!
    APPLE GET UR *** UP AND FIX THIS PROBLEM, or ill just have to switch to Zune,... And i thought that BSD programmers are worth more... Dammit

    If you went through the Apple troubleshooting steps, you should know if the problem is user specific or system wide.
    I am guessing that it will be system wide if iTunes reports system components missing. May be that should be the starting point for investigations.
    Do you have the full error message with error numbers? Does everything else work normally on your system with good performance?
    In general if you have iTuens failing to launch but with iTunes.exe persisting on the processes tab in the task manager, I think of three initial possibilities, damaged configuration file, firewall blocking and misbehaving plugins. However in your case it may be this system problem iTunes is reporting.

  • I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be seperated. What is going on here?

    I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be separated. What is going on here?

    I noticed the same problem after upgrading a few iPhones to IOS 8, all use the same Apple ID.  However, I now notice when I go into Message and instead of selecting a person from my contact list, I start typing their name which brings up a list of people, some of which are not in my contact list and are on one of the other iPhones. There's a circle/exclamation point next to the name which I click on, and one of the options is to "Remove from Recent". How did these names get from one phone to another and how do I remove all "recents"? They do not appear in my contact list. Anyone see this?

    OH my god SOMEONE PLEASEE help me. I closed itunes so maybe it could work again now it looks like its never downloaded it dissapeared from my library. I went to the album it looks purchased but it doesnt have a download button. So what you basicly did is you made up a problem. You failed to help me. You stole 0,90 and still dont care to answer me back. Not community nor if there is any workers here, themselves. I wanted to support one of my favorite singers and this is what I get in return.

  • I cant open Itunes it keeps on saying Accesing Itune and the bar just keeps rolling

    Hi I can not access Itunes,  the tool bar just keeps rolling "accessing itunes"

    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 n 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 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:

  • So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

    So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

    If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
    If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

  • ITunes has no words just symbols.

    I have installed iTunes and it worked great. I had no problems with it after importing music and buying music but today I bought a album from the iTunes store and it loaded fine but then later on when I came back to put some more music on my ipod iTunes had no words just symbols. I've uninstalled iTunes and then reinstalled it again. I did not lose any music when I did this but nothing changed. Has anyone had this problem before and knows how to fix it. I'm very new to things like this and have no clue on how to fix it and what to do. Any help would be thankful.

    my goodness, but that's strange.
    i was wondering if you were having a problem with the font on the PC that iTunes uses for those menu headings ... but if that was the case, the "Paint" menus would be displaying funny as well. besides, it's just some of your source items that are showing the boxes.
    so i'm thinking about different possibilities.
    it's plausible that one of your itunes display preference files has been corrupted. (that's consistent with still getting this after an uninstall/reinstall, because typically those files aren't touched by an install/uninstall or upgrade.)
    so perhaps try rebuilding your itunes preference files files.
    make a note of any custom preferences you have set up prior to doing the rebuild. the rebuild will return all preference to their default settings.
    quit itunes. find the following two folders and move them to the desktop:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\
    (“<username>” here will be the name of the XP user account you’re having difficulties with.)
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files and folders" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files and folders" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) these will be rebuilt the next time you try to launch itunes.
    (the itunes setup assistant will run, you'll be asked to agree to the license again, and so forth.)
    launch itunes. are you back seeing normal menu headings (and items in the source list) again?

  • Is there an iTunes problem?

    Is there an iTunes problem?  I cannot connect to the iTunes Store.  Suddenly this started.  All my computers and connections are working in my home.

    My problem is only on my iPad and it has always worked perfectly. Just today began to get the message that cannot connect to the iTunes Store.

  • Problems with importing CDs - is it an iTunes problem or a computer problem

    Hi,
    I just purchased a new iMac in August, and have had problems importing audio CDs into my iTunes library. Sometimes the computer completely skips over certain songs when importing or the songs are imported but have parts skipped over, almost like the cd is skipping while it is importing. This is happening quite frequently, and it is happening with cds that I know aren't scratched, etc, so there is no reason that I can think of that these wouldn't be importing just fine. I'm wondering if this is an iTunes issue or a computer issue. I don't want to bring my computer in to get serviced if this is just merely an iTunes problem.
    Thanks so much for your help!

    No, just the touch events.
    I think it's because I have an Apple multitouch pad but it functions as a mouse so it's actually sending two notices. It doesn't do it on a touch screen device nor does it do it when everything is switched to mouse events, so I think it's just unique to Device Central and this particular type of mouse.

  • My husband and I share an iTunes account. I just got a mac, but everything I send by message from the mac appears to come from his phone. How do I correct this?

    My husband and I share the itunes account. I just got an iMac. Everytime I send a message from my iMac, it appears to come from my husband's account phone number. Is there any way to fix this? Also, when I open iMessages, all the texts are from his phone (his text conversations).
    Thank you so much for your help!

    Try This:
    Open up the imessage app on your Imac.  Once you have it opened go to top left corner of your screen next to the apple picture and the word MESSAGES appears. Click on it then click on preferences and uncheck your husbands phone and number and or any other numbers which are checked. I had same problem this fixed it. Also if you wanted to you can open up your own Apple account, but that's not really necessary. My wife and I both share the same as you do
