Lost access to CD &DVD player after I installed iTunes 8.0.2.20

Has anyone else run into this issue when installing iTunes 8? I'm running XP pro, and the following is listed in the device manager: "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupt or missing. (code 39)."

I had a problem similar to this that appeared suddenly, itunes 7 was on the computer at the time but I dont think that was what did it becuase it was still happening when I installed iTunes 8. A while after that it suddenly started working again, one drive at a time. But it was weeks after installing iTunes 8 so im not sure if thats what did it...

  • After recently installing itunes on my new PC running windows 8, the CD/DVD drives no longer works, gives a code 19 message. Seems itunes is impacting the registry of the DVD drive. What is best solution to keep running itunes

    After recently installing itunes on my new PC running windows 8, the CD/DVD drives no longer works, gives a code 19 message. Seems itunes is impacting the registry of the DVD drive. What is best solution to keep running itunes normally in the future & get the CD/DVD drive working again? if I delete the upper / lower registry keys what other functions are impacted? I see others say itunes asks for a reinstall...then same problem all over again! THX

  • E and F drives disappear after I install iTunes and Quick Time

    Whenever I install iTunes/Quick Time on my computer, my E and F drives "disappear" and I have no way of accessing them or playing CDs/DVDs. The only way I know how to get them back is to restore my computer to an earlier date. When I do that, I no longer have iTunes/Quick Time on my computer. My computer is an HP Pentium 4 with Windows XP.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can fix this problem? It drives me crazy and I can't update my iPod Shuffle very often because of what I have to go through to get my drives back when I'm done. I'd appreciate any help you can give me.

    First since you have done restores, you need to goto microsofts windows update site and update windows. Then goto the PC makers site and install all updates for your model, especailly BIOs IDE controller and CD/DVD ROM updates.
    After that install itunes.
    Then rightclick "My COmputer" hit Manage>Device manager and see if theres a "Code 41" error message showing beside your CD DVD Drives

  • After I install Itunes 10.5.2 and open itunes a window opens stating another program is not allowing itunes to burn cd's. Next, I get an error window stating itunes 42404 is missing. I've uninstalled itunes 3 times and re-installed. No luck.

    After I install iTunes 10.5.2 and open iTunes a window opens stating "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and CD's and DVD's are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes." This happens everytime.
    After that on one occasion a window stated "Itunes msi) was missing. Upon uninstalling and reinstalling that disapeared. Now I get a window stating, (A required Itunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall Itunes.(_42404)"

    To fix registry, refer to this article:

  • HT1926 after i install itunes it comes up with a error saying it was installed incorrectly.  I have uninstalled and installed it 3 times.  Help

    After I install itunes it comes up with a error message saying it was installed incorrectly and that I won't be able to import or burn cds.  I have uninstalled it 3 times and re installed it.  Still happening.  I have taken my computer to get looked at and there is nothing wrong with it.

    After I install itunes it comes up with a error message saying it was installed incorrectly and that I won't be able to import or burn cds.
    That suggests damage to the GEAR drivers, but we'd better doublecheck.
    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". (If you're running iTunes 11.0.x you'll need to bring up your menu bar first to see the Help menu.) Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".
    When you get through to the final screen:
    ... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here. (Use your Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut to paste.)

  • After I install itunes my windows 7 - 64 bit machine will not boot and I have to use Restore  to boot with a date before I installed itunes

    After I install itunes on my windows 7 - 64 bit machine it will not reboot and I need to restore to a date before itunes was install.  How do I fix this?

    I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
    iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
    Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.    

  • After un-installing Itunes, I am unable to reinstall.  I receive the following error message: microsoft.VC80.CRT.type="win32".version="8.050727.6195".publickeytoken="1fc8b3b 9a1e18e3b".processorarchitecture="x86". HRESULT: 0x80070424.  Help?

    I had Itunes on my PC (Windows Vista, 64-bit) and it worked fine with my Ipod.  I purchased an Ipod nano, and it was not recognized by Itunes and I was instructed to un-install and re-install. After un-installing Itunes, I am unable to reinstall.  I receive the following error message: microsoft.VC80.CRT.type="win32".version="8.050727.6195".publickeytoken="1fc8b3b 9a1e18e3b".processorarchitecture="x86". HRESULT: 0x80070424. 
    I am also having trouble with Windows Updates, and receive the same error message: 80070424.  Perhaps the 2 issues are related?
    If anyone is able to help resolve the issue so I can successfully install Itunes, I would greatly appreciate it!

    I ran the sfc /scannow command, and yes the response was:   Windows Resource Protection could not start with the repair service.
    A broken Windows Modules Installer then. It's a bit of an involved fix getting past it, but we've had success here with it in the past.
    First, I'd strongly suggest setting up a system restore point.
    Now try the Scenario III treatment from the following document:
    Windows Update Error 80070424 in Vista
    Head back into Windows Update and attempt to get updates again. If they still fail, this time with an 8000FFFF error code, try the following Microsoft document:
    Windows Update error 8000FFFF
    If you get Windows Updates flowing again, stock up on any you're behind on (restarting the PC when requested to do so). This may take some time and may have to be done in several batches, depending on how far you've fallen behind. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
    After the updates have been installed, restart the PC one more time (in order to ensure that any pending installs requiring a restart have been resolved).
    Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the 0x80070424 this time?

    Hi there,
    I am also experiencing this problem, but with 1.4.2_06. Last week (late Jan 2005) the dynamic versioning was working fine, downloading and installing the latest version of Java as required.
    However now (early Feb 2005), I am finding that after downloading the latest version of Java and beginning the install, I am getting this error.
    I was hoping that you may have heard of a cause or solution for this problem?
    Many thanks

  • Error message when running HD-DVD player after clean win 7 install on P205-S6347

    On a P205-S6347, did clean win 7 ultimate install with toshiba instructions and loadup software downloaded from toshiba support.  On first dvd player install of latesed full player, got a video eror.  Installed latets patch, now I get "An error has occured in the audio output settings. Please check thet the sound driver is set up properly" The sound playes fine for all other programs/utilities.  Note, I am running USB powered Logitec external speakers.  I have tried to follow all the recomendations of others with this problem, yet nothng works, unless I'm not using the right software, yet I only use whats on the site for the model and OS.  The reason that I want to use this OEM player is that I havent found a comparable player that does just that, playes DVD's like a home unit, complete with menu access as a physical player would and that the moving cursers only seem to work with the Toshiba player, whereas others like VLC and Kantaris will only show one moving curser on a menue and I have to guess where the next one is to slick it to start, and Real Player isnt any better either.  Other problems I've had with other players are that the graphics seem a bit hazy sometimes, I never have that problem with the Toshiba player.  Also, others have way to many bells and whistles, I only want a player that works doing that specific job.  I wish Toshiba would package a universal player that could be installed with all that it needs to run itself.  Any Ideas folks?

    Try to use the command ipconfig /renew in the cms (command dos box)
    Also try this:
    Control Panel > Administration Tools > Computer Management > Services & Applications > Services.
    Scroll down this list to find 'WLAN Auto Config'
    Double click on 'WLAN Auto Config' On the general tab, select from the start up type drop down menu, select 'Automatic'. Under Service Status click on 'Start'. Then 'Apply' these settings and exit from all open control panel windows.
    Otherwise uninstall the Realtek driver in the device manager.
    Then reboot the notebook.
    Download the Realtek WLan driver again and install it.

  • IMac no longer recognizes my DVD player after upgrading to DVD Player 4.6

    Hi,
    Several days ago I upgraded to Tiger and then 2 days ago, through "software update" I upgraded to 10.4.3 and also upgraded to DVD Player 4.6
    I just discovered that my computer no longer sees the DVD player and an inserted DVD doesn't show up anywhere (when I check under "Hardware" and then "Disc Burning" under "About This Mac" it says "No burning device was found."
    I tried reinstalling the upgrade (DVD Player 4.6) but it says it can't because there's no valid DVD player in the system (my computer has a Superdrive and I've played and burned DVD's a plenty in the past several months).
    Any help/info will be GREATLY appreciated!!
