New Dell computer with Window XP not playing songs in iTunes

Can someone help me? I just bought a new Dell with XP and iTunes won't play. The little diamond just sits there.

Ahh.. They changed the Quicktime control panel in QuickTime 7.
There's a couple settings you can mess with. You can toggle the Safe Mode (waveOut) on or off on the Audio Tab. Also, you can click the Select "Audio Playback and Recording Devices" button and change the default device under Sound Playback. One of those might solve the issue.
But this whole problem is nearly always a consequence of having bad or old sound card drivers. Finding an update to the sound card drivers is usually the best way to go.

    My new Dell computer with windows 8, when I open my iTunes and plug my iPhone 5 in the computer does not see my phony, why?

    Hi, Robert. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • New Dell pc with windows 7 and won't download itunes

    I just got a new Dell pc with windows professional 7 os and not able to download itunes.  Every time, I click download, nothing happens, nothing is downloading. Did all the windows updates and checked my security software to see it was blocking it.  Is there something not computable with windows 7?  Or is there something else that I need to download first?  Don't have much software on the pc yet.  Even tried connecting my iphone to pc and didn't bring up itunes either.

    There is some anecdotal evidence that the scripts on the Apple site that are supposed to detect the version of Windows you are running may fail for some users - jumping straight to the "Thank you for downloading ..." page with the installer not having been downloaded.  As an alternative, you can go directly to the relevant downloads - like the previous 12.1.0.77 release, there are three different installers available, with direct links to these as follows:
    iTunes 12.1.1.4 (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.1.4  (64-bit) - itunes6464setup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.1.4  (64-bit "for older video cards") - iTunes64Setup.exe
    The third of these - which is actually the 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer, should be used if you get a warning about video card incompatibility when you install the standard 64-bit version.  Based on evidence of the previous release, this may also be an appropriate alternative if you have playback issues or crashes with the standard 64-bit version.
    See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation.

    Hello, Ken0605. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This could be a result of Automatic Downloads not being enabled or the PC was in sleep mode at the time of download.  The best options would be to check for available downloads via the steps in the second article or download the missing media via the steps in the third article below.

  • Connecting a new HP computer with Windows 7 to Airport Express.

    I have an AirPort Express set up with my home network, base station is configured on my IMAC.  Now I have a new HP PC with Windows 7 for work, and I'm having trouble getting it to connect to the AirPort Express.
    It asks for a "Security Key", and nothing in the literature or on the hardware seems to match that.  I've tried every number sent with the Airport (ethernet ID, AirPort ID) but nothing works.  Can someone provide advice on how to get this to work? 
    thanks,
    Kevin

    It is unlikely that the very long security "key" will solve your issue with the PC, but you never know.... it might be worth a try.
    Open AirPort Utility, select the AirPort Express and click Manual Setup
    Ignoring the window in the center of the screen, look way, way up to the top of the computer screen where the Help, AirPort Utility, Window, etc menus are located.
    Click the Base Station menu
    Click Equivalent Network Password password and your "key" will appear.
