OK, why can I not authorize my Windows 7 64-bit computer for iTunes?

I'm entering my AppleID password just fine (the one I'm using to post this, but the iTunes store keeps rejecting it. Any ideas?
BTW, why does the 64-bit iTunes installer program default to installing under Program Files(x86)? I changed it to the other Program Files directory-- is that the cause of my problem above?

is that the cause of my problem above?
Maybe.
iTunes is still only a 32bit program with 64bit drivers.

If you mean your photostream photos, you can see them on a PC have you enabled photostream.

Complaint: Why can I not download a Windows 8.1 ISO on Mac?

Hello,
I have been sent here by you customer service team to make a complaint.
I have recently purchased Windows 8.1 pro student as a download. I need this for university and was planning on boot camping my mac to do this. I am told the only way to download this product is with a windows machine. I have tried at work but need administrator
privileges also.
This is simply a ridiculous system that you need the operating system that you are downloading to make the download occur. You should be able to download an iso file or the like. I have ordered a backup media (obviously at my expense).
The customer service people I spoke to were very unhelpful. Also this process of complaints is poor. Why can i not talk to someone re a complaint?
Regards
James

Why can I not resize Finder windows by grabbing any side or corner

I love my Macs and Leopard having used PCs for 15 years. But one annoyance of the Mac OS is the inability to resize a window by grabbing any side or corner like I can do in MS Windows.
Being able to resize a Mac OS window by having to grab the lower right corner is a very limiting especially when I have a number of windows open at one time. I would think with all of Apple's sophistication that this would be a simple convenience to add.
Are there any utilities out that that add this functionality to Leopard?
Thanks for sharing in advance.

When you change from one OS to another, do you really expect them to be the same? Then why change? It's like changing from a LH drive car to a RH drive car. It takes a few minutes and that's it.
Different OSs are different otherwise they would be the same.
You don't have a powerful Unix system lying under a Windows GUI and you don't need anti-virus software or have to defrag every day or so. And you do not need to reinstall every month or so or ever get caught in DLL-heck.
Yes Macs are different from Windows machines. I regularly use both and have no problems with either. Whether the gearshift and rearview mirror are on the right or left does not matter to me. I like either.
I'm not sure what disk fragmentation, reinstallation or DLL-**** (never heard of DLL-heck) have to do with the OPs question and observation about being able to drag any corner when you have a screen full of windows. Sounds to me like an attack in desparate defence of OS X instead of constructive discussion.
I also regularly use both, professionally, but there are things that Windows does better than OS X, and there is no reason why OS X could not improve. For example, why can I not selectively remove (i.e. completely destroy) files from my trash?

Why can I not move songs/playlist from my iPhone5 to my iTunes on new laptop?

why can't I move songs/playlist from my iPhone5 to my iTunes on new laptop?

The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

HoW DO YOU SETUP A NEW wINDOW 7 64 BIT PC FOR ITUNES AND MOVE EVERYTHING OVER FROM AN OLD PC

How do you setup a new windox 7 64 bit pc for itunes (which documetns folder does the file need placed in and then move everything over from your old pc (which is windows xp)?

I am pretty disappointed in the lack of documentation.
This is the Apple Support page for Boot Camp:
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
No mention anywhere of Lion, of 4.0/4.01
In the past, 10.6.6+ was suppose to - and sometimes did - provide for a download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant program, in order to save them to flash or such (that should be about 1GB, too large for CD). Some macs req'd a USB-DVD or other driver that was needed pre-install of Winidows
You don't install Apple drivers until after Windows is installed otherwise,
It is possible for me, with a tower, to run w/o needing any drivers from Apple. But with laptops, mini, you do need some drivers from Apple for graphics, internet, wireless, SMC support.
And right now, loading any Apple support Tech Note articles is very very slow.
People keep asking why Apple can't post 3.0 or 4.0 like they do the updates. Only logic is to force t he download from inside OS X or from an OS X DVD. Otherwise would be here, and avoid all the trouble. they aren't of use on a PC, and any PC motherboard vendor does post their support software for download.

Why can I not get my windows to fit the screen

I am not sure what happened today, but in Safari the window does not fit the screen on my Mac Book Pro, even when you click the green + button. What should I do to rectify. I have done a full Shutdown, and still the same.

One other thing that might be handy:
You can set the default Safari window size as follows. Open a new window (command-n). Resize. Close window. Subsequent windows should open at that same size.

Why can I not dualboot into Windows 7 anymore?

About 5 months ago I installed Windows 7 onto a 250GB partition via bootcamp. I kept 500GB for my mac partition and havent had any problems since. Ive been able to restart into Windows and go back into OSX perfectly. About an hour ago I was reading something in Windows and out of nowhere all my windows closed and the computer restarted into OSX. This doesnt happen every day so I restarted and held option while it was starting up to go back into the Windows partition. The bootcamp partition that usually holds Windows 7 wasnt there so I went into OSX and went into finder to check if the partition was still there, it wasnt. I have checked in finder, about this mac (under storage), and even terminal using the directories in there but nothing. In disk utility it shows my OSX partition as having 500GB and then a second partition called 'disk0s2' as having 209MB but no bootcamp partition (it doesnt show anything about the other 250GB). So for the part hour I have been searching for something similar but I have only found other problems. Help??

If it were me I would try to start from the Windows install dvd and run Startup repair.

Why can I not find my music that I download from the iTunes Store or that was ripped from a cd in my library

I have bought several music from iTunes and now I cannot find them in my library. The same goes for music that I have ripped from my cds. What gives?! Why doesn't the music stay in the iTunes library like it does in Windows Media. There is music that I cannot get again and this is not acceptable.

Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. If you try connecting the iPod to a new iTunes library or PC, you won't be able to add any new content to it until you choose the Erase and Sync option that you are prompted with when you plug it in or restore the iPod if that option doesn't appear.
If you have content on your iPod that needs to be copied back over to your iPod, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to you can recover these contents and moved them back over to your iTunes library.

Why can i NOT use "differential" on the MAX test panel for channels 8-16??

I have a USB-6218
This is a 32 channel device with 16 Differential inputs.
Why can't i use the MAX test panel to view any channel beyond AI-7 using the Differential setting? It shades out differential even though my device has this capability.
WHY????

I am using MAX 4.1.0.3001 in conjunction with LV 8.0 and the USB-6218.
I go to MAX, Expand devices, expand MX devices, Right click on the USB-6218 (device2), and go to the test panels.
From there i am unable to view any differential pair beyond 8.
How am i supposed to Thru-Calibrate my equipment? Generally to achieve a valid calibration i use MAX itself to record the raw voltages the board "sees" as i apply known loads to the sensors.
The reason i need to check all this out is because DIFF pairs > 8 also are not working in my VI! Im am not sure if this is related or not.

Why can I not open 2 windows (playlists) to view playlist and library at same time

I cannot open a separate playlist window at the same time I am viewing my library as I have been able to in all previous versions. I want to see all my songs in a separate window, plus a playlist open that I can drag and drop into. Or maybe 2 playlists open. Is this not possible any longer. i want to be able to have different playlist in different windows to manage my tracks.
<Re-Titled By Host>

No longer an option. Best you can do is enable the side bar (CTRL+S), display the source tracks and drag them onto the playlist you want them to go to. You'll have to reorder that playlist, if necessary, as a separate step.

HT4818 Why can't you create a Windows USB on a computer with an optical drive because my optical drive has failed

I get my USB and my Windows 7.iso but when I open bootcamp the option to create a Windows USB is not clickable. Please help because my Optical Drive doesn't work.

Hi Rosera,
This is bad and I am sorry to hear that you are running into these issues.
Let me connect with you, so right now, the current state is that you have installed copy of PSE 8 in trial on your windows 7 machine, and when you are trying to enter the serial number from your PSE 8 Box, it is saying the serial number to be invalid?
It might sound pretty obvious, but please make sure that you are entering the serial number correctly and of PSE 8(in case you bought a PEPE box)?
Have you tried the steps mentioned below by Barbara?
If possible, you can send me the serial number through PRIVATE MESSAGE and I can check it on my end that whether the serial number is indeed invalid or that the issue is with your machine?
Regards,
Ankush

Why can't I open another window to organize my playlists in iTunes?

I've read this is some new "feature" of the new version 11. What a gigantic pain in the ***... er, wrists. I have repetitive strain injuries that have destroyed my career - more poking/clicking/scrolling is not what I'm looking for. *Apple Fail* Maybe my question should be: how do I remove the new software to restore my ability to navigate conveniently on my Mac and not some **** mobile (small, limited real estate) touch screen interface design? Poor Job lads. Steve must be cringing in the grave with you abandoning perfectly useful desktop interface for the sake of mobile whatever. Not everyone uses iPhone/iPads for everything. Thank you for the added encouragement to buy music on vinyl!!

I've edited down your post to capture a theme with which I agree. Despites being serious user of ATV, iPads and iPods.
But like you I resent the dumbing down of OSX to match the interface of the considerably capable iOS. I'd naively expected the reverse.
Sadly, this seems to be the direction of the other software and OS developers as well. Click click drag drag. Bye-Bye Menus, keyboard commands and the assumption that users might actually care about doing something other than texting their facebook friends.
As to the specifics of your annoyance (opening a seperate window). This is indeed the case, I've found no trick or workaround in iTunes 11. This drives me crazy also .
