Problem trying to move iTunes folder! Please HELP!

Please help. I am using Windows 7 with iTunes 10 and cannot for whatever reason move or change the location of the iTunes media folder. I have uninstalled icloud (was using with iPad) and iTunes several times but each time I change the location and consolidate (i really don't mind loosing all the stored info) the folder jumps back to the same location on my D drive. I have tried everything from following online guides and even changing the default music folder location but it keeps going back to the same place.
Please help!!!!!
Many Thanks!!!!!

See also make a split library portable which explains what to do when things aren't in the default layout.
Note, if iTunes won't stay connected to a new library after you've used the shift-start technique then it is possible the problems are down to a corrupt iTunes Prefs.plist file.

Error message when trying to install itunes. please help

"This installation cannot be run by directly launching the MSI package. You must run setup.exe."
in Downloaded Installations folder on my computer, I clicked on the downloaded itunes applications and that was the dialog box that popped up on my screen. What do I do? And how do I do it! please help.

hmmmm ... it sounds like you're clicking inside the folder containing installation configuration information for your iTunes.
what happens if you download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (installer) file to your desktop, and then run the install by doubleclicking on that?
here's a link to the installer download:

Real Problems with Feedburner and iTunes. Please help!

I've tried numerous things to figure out whats going on but havent been able to pin point it. Maybe someone here can help. My latest podcast episode has not shown up in iTunes yet and it has been almost 2 days. I've tried pinging the iTS and pinging feedburner but I'm not sure what's going on. For my first 2 podcasts everything went fine but for this one, the feedburners site says it was unable to create an enclosure for the podcast. Any clues on where to even start? I'm not really a code guy so I don't know what to do. Here's my feed URL and the site I post my podcasts too:
http://moviepool.wordpress.com/feed/
http://moviepool.wordpress.com
feedburner feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/moviepool

interesting. I see they are in the iTunes Store now. Last night after I pinged iTunes AND feedburner it didn't show up. What is the usual wait time for pinging the sites? Maybe I need to just be a little more patient
All I care about are the actual mp3 episodes of my podcasts. I don't care about the other links or image files.

Problems with Flash movie loading. Please help!

Hi all,
Thanks for the interest in my post...
I created a website for a client in Flash 8 and although the
client and myself can view the site, he has said that some people
have contacted him saying the site won't load.
I've put this down to them not having Flash Player 9
installed on their machine (as they can view other sites I've done
in earlier versions of Flash but not this one) but apparently one
of the people who couldn't see it got the latest version of Flash
and the site still wouldn't load.
The website is at: www.petersnowdon.com and I would be most
grateful if a few of you good people would be able to check it out
to see if you have any viewing problems and if you have any
suggestions as to what might be causing this.
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
All the best,
Mark

Tell those people to:
same damn problem I was probably having...When using IE and
deleting temporary internet files it disables/corrupts/removes
proper function of the adobe flash player....You can reinstall all
night long and it will claim a "successful" installation but, it is
not....YOU MUST FIRST UNINSTALL ADOBE FLASH PLAYER USING THE ONLY
TOOL THAT WILL DO THIS WHICH IS THE FLASH PLAYER UNINSTALLER FROM
THE ADOBE WEBSITE....BE SURE AND SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP BECAUSE
YOU WILL BE USING IT FOREVER.....Once you have used the uninstaller
program you can then successfully and truthfully download the
latest adobe flash player.......WILL SOMEBODY FROM ADOBE FIX
THIS!........
Adobe
Uninstaller at bottom of page
There seems to be an "object" in the temporary files object
folder that is NECESSARY for proper Adobe Flash
function…..see for yourself...tools-internet
options-General-Settings-then click view objects.....here it is:
{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
When you clean out your temporary files this goes with it and
your flash will NOT operate...you can try and reinstall it all
night long...your dead...nothing....you must FIRST GO TO THE ADOBE
UNINSTALLER and run that program to uninstall COMPLETELY the
flash....Having done that, you can now install the flash and this
time it will take......
Let me know the results………..

I have problem when transferring book (PDF/Epub) from Computer to iPad with the new iTune? Please Help....

With iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via control-S on a PC, option-command-S on a Mac. If you are trying to get it to the iBooks app then with the sidebar enabled the process should be similar to how it was on previous versions of iTunes e.g. add it to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library, connect the iPad and select it on the left-hand sidebar, and then use the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync it to the iBooks app.

I am having this problem. At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2. I am not sure why this is happening.
My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
The problem mainly occurs with apps. I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them. The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage. It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup. With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up. The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete. This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.

I want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?

Please do not delete any files from the HDD without having a current backup.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say you've "deleted all old libraries." Can you explain that?
If all you are wanting to do is empty the iTunes library of all music, video playlists, etc. the easiest way is to quit iTunes and, in the Finder, go to ~/Music/iTunes and simply move the .itdb, .itl and .xml files to the trash. Launch iTunes again and the library will be empty.
You should be prompted to add content, so you can let iTunes scan the HDD if you like.

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

I have an old Ipod that I was using prior to this one that shows up under devices but not the new one. Im only promted to transfer from what appears to be my old device?

Alright, right after posting my question I figured it out. I plugged my iPod into one of the USB ports in the front of the MacPro and it worked like a charm. Now the problem is, what is wrong with the two ports in the back of my Apple Cinema HD screen? That I can't figure out clearly. The USB connection from it to the MacPro is connected.

"Unknown Error" when trying to move a folder from local MAC drive to External HDD

Help?
Thanks`

Hi,
Are you trying to move the folder to the root level of the target external drive. If so try first making a folder in external drive and then retry moving to that new folder. A similar problem was reported in this thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/2950191#2950191 on windows where you could not export to the root level of a disk. I recall having a similar problem on my Mac and I believe that it was the same.

Cannot sign in to iTunes? Please help.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Also try restarting the router.
If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.
