Itunes requires 2000 or later

I have completely rmvd my virus protection, uninstalled ipod/itunes at least 10 times and reinstalled, installed new updated version of Quick Time, I've MCCONFIG for conflicts with windos, and various other options. I've clicked and unclicked on the compatiblity button. Any suggestions?

I got it.. but you cant do it on the desktop, you must do exactly as listed.....
Quit iTunes.
On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
In My Computer, open the C:\ drive (or whichever disk your Windows XP is installed on).
Open the Program Files folder.
Open the iTunes folder.
Right-click on the iTunes application (iTunes or iTunes.exe) and from the shortcut menu, click Properties.
Click the Compatibility tab.
Deselect the checkbox under Compatibility mode if it's selected.
Click OK.
Open iTunes and play a song.

  • "iTunes requires Windows 2000 or later"

    I have just downloaded the new iTunes software and QuickTime software for my iPod Video, and they have both been 'Installed Successfully'. But when i try to open iTunes i get this message entitled 'QuickTime Unavailable':
    "iTunes requires Windows 2000 or later.
    Please make sure compatibility mode is disabled in the Compatibility tab of the properties for iTunes.exe."
    Now my computer is a Windows XP, and i selected this when i downloaded the software. And i made sure that the Compatibility mode was off. I have got the newest version of QuickTime which came with the iTunes download, and have restarted my computer after downloading it as it said. I feel completely stuck. Any ideas why iTunes isn't running?

    Okay, then that is the appropriate Windows OS & SP for iTunes to run correctly, it may be a installation error, I'd try going to the download page again, downloading it then when prompted click Repair. It'll repair all the missing startup files and such that iTunes needs to run. If that doesn't work, completely uninstall iTunes, install it again, and restart.

  • QuickTime Player requires Windows 2000 or later ERROR

    I had been using QuickTime without a problem for several months, when all of a sudden I started getting an error that says "QuickTime Player requires Windows 2000 or later..." and QuickTime refuses to open. The strange thing is that QuickTime still works in my internet browser, it just cannot launch movies or open from my local machine. So, basically I guess the browser plug-in is unaffected. iTunes also works fine.
    I'm running Windows Vista 32-bit. My graphics card is an nVidia 8800GTX. My Windows, graphics drivers, QuickTime and iTunes are all up to date. I have made sure Compatibility Mode is disabled in the QuickTime.exe properties.
    Any idea what the issue could be?

    I found the solution to my problem. It's actually pretty obvious, but I did have the "Run as an Administrator" option checked in the compatibility tab of the QuickTime.exe. I didn't think that could be a problem I guess, but when I unchecked it... QuickTime starting working again.
    This might not be the solution for everyone with these symptoms but make sure NOTHING is checked in the compatibility tab.

  • How do I block this msg from always popping up "iTunes requires Safari 4.0.3 or later to be installed to use the iTunes Store within iTunes. Use Software Update to download and install the latest version of Safari" bc I can't download the latest software?

    How do I block this msg from always popping up "iTunes requires Safari 4.0.3 or later to be installed to use the iTunes Store within iTunes. Use Software Update to download and install the latest version of Safari". I cannot download this software bc my lap top is to old. The msg literally pops up everytime I make any moves on itunes and is VERY annoying.

    I have a 2006 MacBook with an Mac OS X version 10.5.
    In that case, try downloading a Safari 5.0.5 for leopard from the following location:

    iOS 6 (which runs on the iPhone 5) requires iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
    Upgrade OS X on your Mac.

    No.
    If you don't want to update to the supported software you can't use the device.

    You have already seen that you cannot load the new iTunes into your 10.5.8, so as Neil says, you need Snow Leopard (current cost £14).    And you'll probably need to update the disc you buy via the combo update, though that is free.
    As far as the new iTunes is concerned, there's been a certain amount of grumbling so you may want to study the forums before you update.   The main problem has been with album artwork which does not transfer easily.

    =New version of Quicktime installed but application reports it needs to have that version installed=
    Open Application > Utilities > System Profiler and check the Quicktime version in Frameworks vs. the version in Applications.  I recently helped where the person had re-installed their operating system.  It had kept the newer Player application but had reverted to an earlier version of the underlying support framework that works with many applications.  Re-installing Quicktime 7.7 took care of the problem.
    Installation get stuck at "configuring installation" - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2592979?threadID=2592979  - uninstall Quicktime before installing.

  • 'iTunes requires Safari 4.0.3 or later to use the iTunes store within iTunes'

    In iTunes 10.5 on my Mac OS X 10.5.2, this message keeps popping up;
    "'iTunes requires Safari 4.0.3 or later to use the iTunes store within iTunes"
    This pops up every 5 or so seconds, so its really annoying if im trying to listen to music. There is no 'don't show this message again' option so its really getting on my nerves! The only way to get update Safari is though a software update and I am scared that if I do a software update, my Mac could crash again, like it did the last time and I had to spend €130 to get it fixed!
    My question is:
    1) should I do a software update and
    2) how can I stop this message apart from updating?
    Thanks in advance,
    Hannah.
