Pre install iTunes content on a Touch with iPhone Config utility

It was recommended that I post this question here. My company is raffling 2 iPod Touches and they want to have some pre-loaded MP3s. Is there any way iPhone Configuration utility can help me do this without authorizing the Touches to my iTunes?
The MP3s were imported into iTunes (drag and drop) so they shouldn't have DRM.
I would prefer that they be as pristine as possible when the winners receive them.

Hi dxironman - thanks for the reply. Yeah you are right, I know this is a vista issue since I got my office staff to enable my work laptop to use iTunes temporarily which uses vista business, and I did not face any of these issues there and the iPad was ready to sync there.
Now just wondering if there is a way to achieve that experience on this home laptop which has home premium on it. Buying win 7 isn't really an option I want to look at now, given a 100$ + cost associated with it.
Welcome to being directed to any other links that have workarounds for tweaking vista.

I pulled my brains out trying to figure this bug out and I may have a solution for you.
All of it installed fine in my desktop, but a friend's laptop got the error you mentioned on quicktime, itunes, flash, officeXP and about anything else I tried to load for him.
If you look in: C:\documents and settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp there will be an iTunes install log...open it in Notepad and see if it isn't exiting with a 1619 error while running msiexec.exe
If this is the case, this fix should work for you.
Seems some configurations of XP (and possibly Vista) aren't allowing full administrator rights to the account you set up when you installed XP (even though User Editor says you do have those rights.)
I read 2 MS articles and turned off simple file sharing, then gave ownership of the entire C: drive to the administrator. Logged the admin account off, logged his "admin" account in, and then gave rights to his personal directory to his account (c:\docs and settings\<username>)
Once I did that, every install that had previously errored out performed flawlessly.
The MS articles in question:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=316309 (1619 error)
and
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308419 (how to set special permissions)
Hope this helps!

I had iLife pre-installed on my aluminium Macbook 2009 with OSX Leopard on it. My hard drive broke but got most of the info off it and just installed snow Leopard on to a new drive and then downloaded and installed Mountain Lion over it. Now I don't have iLife anymore. How do I get it back?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Mac OS X doesn't come with iLife applications, so you have to install them manually after installing Mac OS X.
Insert the Applications disc or Mac OS X Install Disc 2 DVD and install iLfe applications. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the latest update. If you want, you can purchase iMovie, GarageBand and iPhoto in the App Store, so you will get the most recent version

ITunes doesn't sync iCal with iPhone after upgraded to Mountain Lion

iTunes doesn't sync iCal with iPhone after upgraded to Mountain Lion. I even tried to use Replace Information On This iPhone and it doesn't work. Any idea guys?

I'm having the same problem. It's as if my iPhone and MacBook Pro now have two separate calendars.
Basically, I have a MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion, 13", late 2011) that I sync via USB with an iPhone 4S (iOS 5.1.1). Before upgrading to Mountain Lion, all of my iCal events would sync flawlessly. But none of the events I've created in iCal (Calendars) since upgrading have synced to the iPhone. Likewise, no new events that I create on the iPhone Calendar will sync to iCal. Also, changes to an existing event (even one created before upgrading to Mountain Lion) don't get synced either.
Everything else seems to be syncing just fine though (music, apps, contacts, etc).

Yes. You can also use an iPad charger too if you have one.

IPhone Config Util stealing control from iTunes

I installed iPhone Config Util and now it appears that when I attempt to sync the iPhone, iPhoto sees it but iTunes does not. Is there a way I can give control back to iTunes. I am not intending to manage the iPhone on an enterprise.

Hmmm... It appears that all my Login items were removed from my account and iTunesHelper was the one which would allow iTunes to connect (noticed all this after rebooting the machine). iTunes will now recognize it if I manually start iTunes but will not auto-start when the iPhone is docked. Could not find iTunesHelper.
Does anyone know where I can find iTunesHelper so I can add it to the Login items?
I apologize if this does not belong on this list but this problem (of no Login items) appeared after upgrading Server Admin and adding iPhone Config Util to a newly upgraded 10.6 machine (non server).

HT1926 I have tried to delete the latest itunes and get back to 10.7. Now I have nothing in my library. How do I get the freshly installed itunes 10.7 to sync with the itunes STORE, and get me computers library back?

I just tried to delete the new itunes (Hate it & could figure out how to sync iphone any more), and I reverted back to itunes 10.7 64-bit. When I tried to use itunes, it couldnt read the library because it had been created by the newer version (why it didn't get deleted when I removed itunes I do not know), so I deleted a few itune library files that I found still on my computer. Now I have the 10.7, but nothing in it... no library items. How do it get the itunes to sync with the itunes store

This is what you should have done...
To roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

ITUNES WILL NOT LOAD, I get an error message which tells me to re-install iTunes.tried on several occasions with same error message.

Hello Roadster44,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with reinstalling iTunes. I recommend following the steps below:
1. Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order. Then, restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components, may have unintended affects.If you encounter an error while uninstalling, try repairing the affected component:
2. Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled In most cases, removing iTunes and its related components from the Control Panel will remove all supporting files belonging to those programs. To fully resolve these issues, manually remove any remaining iTunes-related folders listed below.On 32-bit and 64-bit systems:On 64-bit systems:
3. Reboot your computer.
4. Download the iTunes installer. When prompted to select what you want to do, choose to save it to your computer.
5. Install iTunes.
Right click on iTunesSetup or iTunes64Setup.
Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: Select the 'Run as administrator' option.
Windows XP: Select the Open option.
Finish installing iTunes.
It is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the first step.

TS3682 i had a iPhone 4 and then got a new computer, i installed iTunes but i couldnt sync with my iTunes it didnt see the iPhone, i got a new iPhone 5C and up dated it via iCloud and still my computer will no sync with the phone, again it fails to see it

Hi
I had a iPhone 4 and then got a new computer, I installed iTunes to it but my new computer refused to sync with my phone, i backed up my phone via icloud and purchased tracks etc from iTunes, but now i have a new iPhone 5C and I backed it up via the icloud, not all data was transfered, music etc.
Again my computer will not sync with the new phone, it doesnt see the phone within my libary, doesn't give an option to do any thing with phone
Can so one please let me know were Kim going wrong, I have authorized my computer to itunes I really don't know what to do now?

Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.
To save the photographs you may have to use third party software. Google is your friend.

ITunes confuses iPod Touch with iPhone

Hi everybody
If I plug my iPod touch into the computer itunes gives me following warning:
The software requirde for iPhone is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install iTunes again.
The iPod doesn`t appear in iTunes but charges.
Does anybody have an idea what I did wrong?
Thank you very much in advance

my ipod touch worked fine at work until i upgraded to the new itunes. now it can't be seen while plugged in. it charges but doesn't show up in itunes. i have done everything that i have found on the website and still nothing. any suggestions? i also upgraded to the 1.1.3 firmware so i really don't want to have to restore my touch again if i don't have to since i was charged twice for the upgrade (another story all toghether). it still works fine at home. the problem is, i have about 9 days worth of music here at work and i don't want to have to burn all of that to cd's so i can put it on my pc at home.

"quicktime is not a valid short file name"????
That's usually related to trouble with the QuickTime.msi.
Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)
