Probles with updated to iTunes version 10.2.2.12 on Windows XP

I run Windows XP on an older model Dell Inspiron notebook. I updated iTunes to the latest version last night, 10.2.2.12, and when I restarted the computer, I noticed when it booted up that my personal settings had been zapped, so my desktop had a different look, and many program icons were missing. Also, the new version of iTunes had 0 of the 500+ songs I own.
Has anyone else suffered serious problems like this after installing the new iTunes version? If so, what is the fix?
Thanks. JCA, Napa, CA.

Well, I admit the possibility of a post hoc ergo propter hoc issue with assuming the iTunes version update caused the problem with Windows XP not "remembering" my personal settings.
But I have successfully installed iTunes updates for approximately the last two years, and never had the new version of iTunes fail to find and load my old music library, and that is part of what happened to me last night.
Are you sure this is a Windows XP malfunction, and not something related to the iTunes installation??? Thanks.

  • Problems detected after updating to iTunes version 11.1.3.8

    Problems detected after updating to iTunes version 11.1.3.8 for Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit version, Service Pack 1.
    USB connected iPhone 4 (iOS 7.0.4) is not recognised in iTunes.
    Sluggish response when starting iTunes.
    Any known remedy?

    After updating to the newest version of iTunes which is 11.1.3.8, I can no longer edit song information because whenever I click Get Info, the program crashes. It says, "iTunes has stopped working...". I literally tried all the troubleshooting techniques here but to no avail!
    I already:
    Reinstalled iTunes and other related programs like a hundred times
    Scanned my computer for viruses
    Opened iTunes on another user account
    Opened iTunes on safe mode
    Removed unusable configuration files
    BUT STILL, the problem persists. I have the same version of iTunes on my office computer and it works perfectly fine but I want my iTunes here at home to get fixed. Never had problems with editing song information until I updated it to 11.1.3.8.
    I just don't know what to do anymore. I updated this program last January 1 and until now I haven't found any solution. It's really getting on my nerves!!!

    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:

    iTunes is not available on an iPhone, but an iPod is.
    Which iOS version is your iPhone running?
    The current iOS version for a GSM iPhone is 4.3.5. If you have a GSM iPhone and your iPhone is running 4.3.5, your iPhone is running the most updated version of everything included with the OS.

    I am running Windows 7 home edition and trying to update to iTunes version 10.5 (from version 10.3.1.55) and I keep getting the following error message, ‘Error occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools > Download Only and try installing manually’ which I do only to have the same error message pop up.

    Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

  • I recently bought an iPad Mini, but it won't sync with my latest iTunes version

    So, i bought the new iPad mini like 2 weeks ago, and yesterday I decided to sync, so I updated my iTunes version and then proceeded to connect the iPad in order to sync it. When connected, it says it's not charging next to the battery sign, but it is recognized by my laptop and iTunes, because it shows "Adriana's iPad". When I choose to sync, it says it's syncing but it really doesn't, and also, when I try to see the content of my iPad in the iTunes, it's all gray and It won't show ANYTHING! what do i do?

    When you see your iPad listed in iTunes click on that to select it. Then go to the tabs that are shown and select those things your want on your iPad before you click on Apply or Sync. That should copy what you want to the iPad.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Cannot update my iTunes to 10.4.1 on my Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit machine

    Cannot update my iTunes to 10.4.1 on my Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit machine. Why? It seems like I am not the only one with this problem. Is there a solution? I have tried to download separately without any success.

    Hallo Lucas,
    I found a solution for my problem.
    Follow the instructions on how to remove iTunes as descripted in the link I posted before (a english version is available).
    Additionally I had to remove every appearance of Apple and Apple Computer software from
    c:\users\YourUserName\AppData
    Reboot, reinstall latest iTunes and it worked again.
    I hope this helps.

  • HT1926 I keep getting the following message after attempting to download and install the latest update for iTunes: missing MSVCR80.dll.  error 7 (windows error 126)

    I keep getting the following message after attempting to download and install the latest update for iTunes: missing MSVCR80.dll.  error 7 (windows error 126). Anyone else having this issue? How do I get iTunes back in working order?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
