  • ITunes will not install on my windows vista operated laptop

    ... I know this is not a new question, and I have tried just about everything that was suggested before.  I removed iTunes and Quicktime and all programs related to them and reinstalled iTunes. However, it still will not open; I get a message indicating that the Data Execution Prevention program has closed it down.
    I tried to bypass the DEP, following the instructions provided, by manually exempting iTunes from it.  However, I received a message that this program could not be exempted.  The DEP setting was set so that only Windows System 32 programs would be governed by it.  But this did not work either.
    Finally, I set things up so that iTunes would run only via an adminstrator account, but this too did not work.
    I should note that iTunes worked fine on my laptop until several weeks ago, when Microsoft pushed some windows updates.  (I have Windows Vista Service Pack 2 operating now, but don't know what it is or its significance to this problem.)
    So, I think I have exhausted the troubleshooting options I have seen.  ... Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks.

    I reinstall Quicktime and it would not launch and gave me the same error messages.
    We'd better check to see if some other application has stashed old versions of QuickTime componentry down in your system files.
    So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • ITunes will not install on new Windows 7 computer

    I'm trying to download iTunes onto my new computer. I give my email address and download it, then towards the end I get an error message that says the installer is for the 32-bit version, please download the 64-bit version. The 64-bit version is what pops up when I go to the download page, and what is in the file name of the download. I even when to the list and tried both versions, and I get the same message.
    What should I do?

    Do you get an error message when you try to download iTunes, melissa? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • Itunes 11 will not install on my Windows 7 computer because it cannot start the 'Apple Mobile Device' service, what can I do?

    itunes 11 will not install on my Windows 7 computer because it cannot start the 'Apple Mobile Device' service, what can I do?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • ITunes will not open on my Windows 7 computer.  I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but it still won't open?

    iTunes will not open on my Windows 7 computer.  I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but it still won't open.  I'm trying to synch my iPad and iPhone, which I haven't done for awhile, but right now I'm having no luck.  I'm sure there is a switch I need to turn on or off, but have no idea where to find it.  Can someone help?

  • ITunes will not start on my windows 7 computer

    iTunes will not open on windows 7, help!
    I have an HP laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium, the iTunes version is 11.1.5.5. About a year ago my screen broke on my HP laptop so I moved the hard drive into an older computer. I recently moved my hard drive from the old laptop back to the new.  least opened on the older laptop but now it will not open at all. I've searched all around the web and still haven't found an answer. It's becoming very aggravating. Other programs
    I uninstalled every apple related program and reinstalled them, I deleted old apple files, scanned for malware, drivers, Nothing seems to work i'd greatly appreciate the help.
    iTunes at least opened on the older laptop but it would stay stuck at analyzing gapless playback, now it will not open at all. I've searched around the web and still haven't found an answer, it's becoming very aggravating.Programs stop working as well such as Catalyst control center, I had to get a new sound driver, Firefox wasn't working, Movie maker, and vlc video player.
    I uninstalled every apple related program and reinstalled multiple times, I deleted old apple files, scanned for malware, drivers, disk defragmenting. Nothing seems to work I'd greatly appreciate the help because my iphone died two nights ago and when i plugged it in to charge it would show the battery, then spple logo almost immediatly, then the passcode and it would die and do it again, basically stuck in an endless reboot. Now it's current;y stuck in recovery mode and I want to restore it but of course iTunes isn't working, life is hard so please give me a hand apple I like apple I don't wanna get an android haha.

    Doublechecking before proceeding. Are you getting an error message on the new laptop when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • How do I receive credit for Lightroom 5 as it will not load on my Windows Vista computer?

    I ordered and attempted to download Lightroom 5 on my Windows Vista computer. Download was interrupted and I then saw that my computer does not meet the requirements. I wrote to someone on Live Chat on the same day (January 6, 2014). I was told the case was escalated to the higher level of support for refund and that I would hear from Adobe in 2-3 business days. OK, now it is January 14th. Please someone help...

    If it were me, I'd install it anyway - but don't go crying to Adobe (or me) if you have problems :

  • IPod will not install drivers on Windows Vista

    Hello,
    I am running Windows Vista Ultimate on 2 computers. One computer connects to my 60GB iPod video just fine, while the other looks for drivers and then fails to find any. I get a window that pops up saying "Insert the disc that came with your iPod" after Windows searches for drivers. Because of this, the iPod does not appear in iTunes, nor does it appear in My Computer. I have tried performing a soft reset on the iPod (Menu/Center combo) which did not work. I have also tried reinstalling iTunes to no avail. This is a brand new Windows installation and I just can't figure out why it won't work. iTunes seems to work just fine in all other respects.
    I have also followed the steps in this article:

    Scroll down to the quote from WickedMX.
    Basically, C:\Windows\System32\Driverstore\Repository and look for a folder that starts with usbstor. You will probably have two different versions. Open the folder that is the newest version and then copy the files usbstor.inf and usbstor.PNF. Copy them to the C:\Windows\INF folder. Try installing your device(s) again and it should work like a charm!

    b. Access the following Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData \S-1-5-18\Components
    c. Perform the following actions
    i. Right Click on Components Folder
    ii. Select Permissions
    iii. Select Full Control and Read Permissions options
    iv. Select Advanced Button
    v. Select Owner Tab
    vi. Select to Change Owner to the Administrators
    vii. Check the option “Replace owner on subcontainers and objects”
    viii. Select OK when prompted that it may not change all.
    ix. Select Apply
    x. Select Apply again
    xi. Exit the Registry Editor
    Now try reinstalling iTunes again. Does it go in properly this time?

  • ITunes will not install on my Windows 8 laptop

    I have a laptop with Windows 8.1 on it.  I have tried installing iTunes a bunch of times (with different browers) and have also tried to follow the instructions that Apple usually posts in response to these complaints...but no luck.  It looks like it starts to install and then it stops and gives me an error that it cannot complete the installation.  I have no idea what is going on and I am getting very frustrated.  Please help!

    Although you're getting a different error message, try the procedure from the following user tip with that one:

  • FireFox 4 and earlier versions will not install on my Windows Vista, 64 bit computer. The file downloads and the file extracts but I never make it to the installation wizard.

    I have tried to download FireFox 4 and earlier versions from several different website, thinking the files might have gotten corrupted, and each time I download the file the exact same thing happens, the file downloads and the file gets extracted but when the extraction completes the small window dissappears and nothing else happens.
    My machine is a Windows Vista 64 bit system and I've tried downloading the file with my 32 and 64 bit Internet Explorer but nothing seems to work. Can someone help me please because I would love to be able to completely delete I.E.

    Hi, thanks for your Flash file info. Well you must have been doing it right, since all of your Flash files for IE and FF are correct.
    The SWF plugin for FF and the SWO for IE are also correct.
    You shouldn't be having any problems with Flash Player.
    What you can try is to turn off the hardware acceleration feature. Go to any video, like youtube and right click on the video and click on Settings. Display Settings is where you will UN check hardware acceleration.
    See if that helps. Let me know.
    Thanks,
