ITunes regularly asks for initial settings

Hi.
I've got a strange problem with my iTunes. iTunes shows the initial settings wizard regularly on start. After I finish the wizard all my settings are gone and I have to reconfigure everything. If I cancel the wizzard my settings are gone as well. Most of the settings are reconfigured quickly but I have to rebuild my media library each time as I relocated it to a different hard drive. Does anybody here know how to fix this problem and get rid of the settings wizard?
My environment:
- OS: Windows Vista Ultimate x86
- UAC deactivated
- iTunes: 8.0.2.20 German
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
K. Zumbusch

I'm on the line with Apple Support.    Did a system reset, and this time the ITunes Store asked me for both ID's in succession.  Still working on it.

  • Why does iTunes keep asking for my password when I want to listen to my music on my iPhone?

    When I want to listen to music on my iPhone, iTunes keeps asking for my password.  I am not purchasing anything.  It started today.  Why is that?

    I've been having the same problem on my iPad and iPhone. I talked to Apple customer service this morning. They had me do the following on both devices in the Settings:
    * Sign out of iTunes & App Store
    * Sign out of FaceTime
    * Sign out of Game Center
    * Delete iCloud account
    They also had me restore my iPad due to some glitchy behavior in the Music app.
    Things seemed to me fixed for a few hours until I went into the iTunes Store app on my iPad and added a movie to my Wish List. When I went back to the Music app, the dreaded "Sign In to iTunes Store" popup started showing up again on both devices. Suspicious!
    So, I cleared out my Wish List in both the iTunes Store and App Store. I've been poking at the Music app on both my iPhone and iPad since then I haven't seen that popup once since then. I'm not going to declare victory yet since it's only been an hour or two, but I thought that this was worth mentioning.

  • For restoring from backup itunes is asking for password

    Hi Experts
    for restoring from backup itunes is asking for password and i didn't give any password when backup was going on not even i checked on encrypt my backup.
    please help me ASAP

    See:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3057884
    I too have experienced the "blame everything but Apple products/software" indoctrination of the Apple phone support techs!
    I have a feeling that iTunes automatically switches encryption on and puts as default a previous iTunes store password but as I don't leave mine the same all the time (and don't feel the need to remember historic passwords that I'm not using to secure anything against) I have no clue what it is.
    Good luck trying to get useful advice on here relating to the issue, it will go along the lines of...
    1) Its your fault for setting it and forgetting the password,
    2) We know everything and theres definately no way iTunes would set backups to encrypt without your knowledge and...
    3) Theres no fix for this issue, you might be able to save some of your data, but most will be lost (unless you specifically ask for an iTunes redownload exemption/ token then your purchases could be lost too).

    The number pad would not let me type in a 1 2 3 for my 4 digit code.  After numerous tries, the phone now says iphone disabled connect to itunes.  When I connected to itunes, it asked for the code which I was unable to enter.  Help!

    Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons on iPhone until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the iPhone Firmware.
