ITunes problem with Libary

Hey, what i did, i moved all my songs and movies to an external drive, and re-linked it to the itunes, but it won't play my movies, it will play the songs. So i tried to put the movies back into the itunes, but it won't add it, it shows the plus icon when you want to add it, and won't do anything. Any suggestions what i should do?
Thanks for any Help
Mike

I just had to update my Quicktime, and I solved it.

HT1926 (iTunes) Problem with Windows installer package?

(iTunes) Problem with Windows installer package? I try to install the new version of iTunes but get an error "Problem with Windows installer package. A Program required for this install could not be run." Can anyone help shed some light for me as to how to correct this? I have tried to install the program through Chrome, Explorer and FireFox but have had no success. I have included a screenshot of the error. Hopefully it's visable. Thank you for any help.

Found answer for anyone else curious. I love the apple community. Thanks guys for help!

Itunes problem with windows Vista

ok i bought my touchsmart tx2 1025 with windows vista ultimate 64 bit and well i ve noticed that ..well since this is my third time i exchange this computer and i noticed there was a problem with the speakers when i was playing music that anytime during a song i would get this distorted sound like when u put a lot of volume in ipod headphones that it sounds like a crack. Well that happened in my computer even with low volumes.
However I played two times the same song on itunes and two times on windows media player.
Every single time on itunes the sound came as if the speakers were about to blow... like a crack..
Every single time on Windows media player it never sounded like that.
So i am pretty sure its an itunes problem. Does anyone know how to fix this.. i would rather use itunes than windows media player but i really hate the sound it makes sometimes because it shows about 2 to 3 times during one song.

It's possible that the song your playing does indeed have a little audio distortion in it, some media players are capable of filtering it out in a silent way, others play a beep, hence with one song I have, if i play it in windows media player it goes on and then for a split second theres a beep, iTunes doesent seem to do it, so instead of filtering out the missing data, it plays it.
This is more likley a problem with the song than iTunes

Itunes problems with windows 7 64 bit

Hi, i have searched and searched for a solution to my on going problems with itunes on my windows 7 64bit computer.
it started with my backups not being saved when i sync, then any music i add seems to play strangely i.e skips and plays the start of the song in the middle.
updating last sunday to the new iphone os (4.3) was also a disaster, having to try a number of times over 2-3 days as the downloads just seemed to hang and not do anything. At the end on around my 10th try it downloaded and updated in around 15 mins.
I now find myself when i connect to itunes more often than not having to manually delete corupt backups until i get a succesful one as sometimes it works and other times it doesnt.
I tryed a vista computer a friend has and everything worked perfectly!
songs, backups the lot!!
So it clearly seems like a problems between windows 7 64bit and iphone 4.
can anyone please shed some light on these issues??????
Many thanks, gaggie...

I am not sure that I can help with this, but I have seen an instance where continuous backup software cased playback problems.
Also are you using any Norton products?

Itunes problems with Vista

Has anyone run into a problem with Itunes not being able to play audio tracks from cd, and not able to import from a cd? (Using Vista Ultimate)I can play existing audio files, but not from a disc and it won't import.
I have tried uninstalling vers. 7.1 and re-installing. I have tried updating my firmware for my two drives and I have also enabled administrative permissions for Itunes under the, annoying UAC built into Vista. Nothing seems to resolve the issue.

Which versions of each? iTunes was updated to 7.5. iTunes may not support x64.
Did you tell or let iTunes during the install to "use iTunes for playing all supported media?"

Reinstalling iTunes, problem with duplicates

I have an iMac 2GHZ running OS X v10.5.7 which is having multiple longstanding problems with freezing/errors and no significant problems show up after running disc utilities (repairing permissions etc..) or Tech Tool. Also my itunes music folder is full of duplicates that don't show up on my i tunes duplicate or "Dupin" duplicates list. iTunes library shows 43 GB space used and iTunes Music folder shows 95 GB space used.
I would like to start from scratch, reformat my hard drive and reinstall iTunes to see if it solves most of the problems. I am using Time Machine for backup but also can make a bootable clone with Super Duper. I wonder if it would be better to restore my iTunes from an iPod since none of the duplicates exist there.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
B

a lot of people are having similar problems
a temporary solution i discovered is desribed on this thread

Itunes problem with visual c++ runtime

I have not had any problems with my itunes for windows before. But today as soon as I opened itunes, an error message came up with "microsoft visual c++ runtime library" in the window title bar and "application requested runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. please contact the application's support team for more information". Once you click ok in the window, itunes closes and you can't do anything with it. I have downloaded the latest version of itunes and it still states that. a couple of days ago i did download itunes plus but it doesn't seem like that's the culprit. Can anyone help? Thanks!

i do hope so, considering that i can't access any of
my music or account information at all because of it.
I could always try to remove itunes and reload but I
can't remember the songs that I've downloaded since
the last time I made a library backup (last month).
Here is the answer. First you download the latest iTunes and intstall it. You will not lose your iTunes library by doing this. Then, if you get the "can't save iTunes library" error, you follow the instructions on this page - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313 - it worked for me!

Itunes problems with new nano, purchased songs

Hello all. I am having a few problems with my itunes and newly purchased nano that hopefully you guys can give me some advice on. First of all, when i plug in my nano, it does not recognize it unless i close itunes and reopen it. Then, it takes a few minutes to open and acts like it is a new nano every time i open it. Meaning, it asks me to name the nano and asks me to apply all the settings etc. After that it works. I then can eject it. If I then re open itunes, with my nano not plugged in, itunes thinks that my nano is plugged in and says its corrupted. If i attempt to do anything in itunes, it freezes up.
In an unrelated problem, i am forced to authorize my computer to play my purchased songs every time i open itunes. It never remembers when I authorize it.
Thanks in advance for your help i definitely appreciate it!

OK, could not resist. I did go ahead and put my old run history back into the new & now restored Nano. No problems. Everything is fine. (Be remember, this is not something that is supported or approved by Apple or Nike.)
There may be no connection between adding the old run data files to the new Nano and the sound & freezing problems. Others have already complained about those.
However, what I will say is that you should never mess around with the Nike+ xml "Preferences" file or the "Best" file. These are invisible for a reason. You can put your old xml run data files into your "latest" folder and thus get them on your new Nano, but you CANNOT change your Totals on your new Nano no matter what you muck around with. However, if you try it and things go wrong, doing a "restore" should save the day.
And it should save the day for sound problems and recurring Nano freezes unless you have a defective Nano.

ITunes problem with speakers

This only started recently, but when I play music on iTunes, it starts off fine but every once in a while, sound will stop coming from one speaker (or sometimes both). I thought it was a problem with my speakers at first, but then I realized that pausing and resuming the song would fix the problem. So I tried playing songs with other programs and tried the audio on websites and they work fine. Not too sure what the problem is.

Some have posted issues using the Apple TV with extended networks.
Is it possible that it is some sort of interference to your network that is causing problems rather than distance. Have you tried using a different wifi channel.

IPhone sync to iTunes problem with version 10.3.1

I've just upgraded to iTunes 10.3.1.55 and my iPhone will no longer sync to iTunes. I've tried downloading and reinstalling but this made no difference.
I get the following message:
"iTunes cannot read the contents of the Iphone. Go to the summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings"!
I picked up elsewhere that there was a problem with 10.3 which was supposed to be corrected with 10.3.1 but it seems that this update had not cured the problem.

Thanks for the info, Tom.
I've gone thru that Interoperating guide but I'll go thru it again. I don't see any error messages in my server logs. This is a single instance although the database does have multiple server instances connected to it. The data source name would be the same for all the server instances. Mine is the only one using the MDBs & WLS 10.3.1, others are using the stateless session beans. I'm using XA drivers & connection factories but I don't have any specific transactions defined in the Java code. Initially I didn't have the auto-acknowledge specified initially but thought maybe that is the problem. I have not knowingly specified any non-transactional config - if I did it would be via an omission.
So, if there is no problem in the WLS 10.3.1 supporting this acknowledgment then I'll keep reviewing my configuration.
Thanks again. I'll try to remember to post my solution.

ITunes - Problems with Audio Configuration

I have been an iTunes user and Apple lover for years and have used these products for years. On my Toshiba laptop I have run iTunes for years without problems. HOWEVER, when I installed the latest iTunes, I get the following error: "iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration." What the BLEEP does this mean. Never before have I had an issue. Please advise. Thank you!

I was bitten by this one too, and this fix worked for me too.
This is about the 3rd time that a new version of iTunes has caused me problems - the 2nd time it's been a serious one. Not a great record.

Itunes problem with Windows 7 and iphone

I have Windows 7 x64 Ultimate released last week.
Also I installed Itues 9.0.2.25.
Today I got a really wierd problem.
1. My phone was not being charged any way (power or itunes).
2. Then when I tried to sync my contacts through outlook, it was 6 hours and mu iphone was just keep on syncing. Itunes showed I am using some 180MB space for contacts but my contacts list was empty on phone.
I had to take the phone back to the store and then all of a sudden it just synced withing 10 minutes.
I would say, by trying to restore to factory settings through itunes and then re-syncing the phone probably worked.
But this is really a problem and probably of itunes.

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
Regards.

ITunes problems with existing Music Library

Can someone please advise why since downloading the latest iTunes SW I now have 83 songs (at least two of these songs were purchased directly from the Apple on-line store) in my PC Music Library that cannot be ported to my iPOD.
I have tried to Authorise my PC with the Apple Server at least a dozen times now and each time it say's it OK yet I still have the problem highlighted above.
I am getting so annoyed that Apple can stop me listening to MY OWN music that I am toying with idea of dummping my iPOD and moving to a more Customer friendly MP3 device.
Rgds, John...

I actually had about 5 on my Mac do the same - also purchased software from the Apple Store.
I managed to get them recognized properly by deleting them from the iTunes library (but not trashing the files) and then re-importing them in to iTunes, it seems to be related to the update process when 7.1 first loads.

Deauthorizing computers on itunes - problem with aol email

I understand you can only authorize up to 5 computers per apple ID and cannot combine apple IDs.
I am trying to play old songs purchased with an old aol ID. It appears that myscreenname and [email protected] are two different apple IDs.
I am able to sign into itunes using [email protected] and it says 3 computers are authorized
I am not able to sign into itunes using myscreenname because it says "you need to change your account to use an apple ID. To continue to use the Itunes store you must create an apple ID." When I hit update account and try to make one, it says I already have an account with this email address and that I can just log in.
But when I click on the old songs it prompts me to type in my password for myusername NOT [email protected]
I know this is confusing...
I believe I need to "deauthorize" all computers on myusername but I cannot log into that because of what I described above...

Ok i figured it out! Just putting this up here in case anyone else had this problem:
In response to:

When I hit update account and try to make one, it says I already have an account with this email address and that I can just log in.
I did this but changed the email address to a new one that I actually have now, which took me to the original old account but called it by this new email address. From the account page I could deauthorize all computers.

Itunes problem with hard drive filling up?

Recently, I plugged my 8gb Nano into my computer and as soon as I looked at my library, many songs had exclamation points and no longer would play on my ipod. For a few of the songs with the !, I just deleted them, and went and dragged and dropped it again form my computer's hard drive, and it synced/played with no problem??? I have probably 200 or so songs with the !, so I was looking for a more efficient way to fix the problem other than deleting each one individually and dragging and dropping them again from the hard drive of my computer. Thanks in advance!
Also, I have a second problem. When I plug in my nano to my computer, my ipod's hard drive begins to immediatley fill up for no reason, and I'm not adding any files to Itunes. I then looked at my ipod under windows as an external drive and under the "music" folder it is adding folders with artist's names as the titles of these folders within the "music" folder of the ipod when I open it in windows? Anyone ever had this problem??

plausibly, you're getting some less-standard symptoms of a Windows drive letter confusion here. if that's what is afoot, the following document may be of some assistance:
Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
