Pull your finger out Apple!

Why is there NOT a version of iTunes that is compatible with WindowsXP Pro 64?
When are Apple gonna get their fingers out of their butt and release a 64 version? Anyone else have a similar problem and are just as annoyed as I am?
Thanks
AMD64 Custom   Windows XP Pro   XP Pro 64, that is...

  • ITunes Stopped Working - Apple Pull Your Finger Out And Fix It Please!!!

    Okay so this is a similar story to hundreds I have seen.
    The other day I opened iTunes (7.0.2) Which has been working fine for years (Obvioously with previous versions).
    It opened up and began doing some kind of scan, then closed with the error "iTunes has enocountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconconvenience"
    Firstly I figured I might have a corrupted file. So I deleted my iTunes library from my docs and opened iTunes again. It opened fine with no music in there. I added 1 single random file and it immediatley came up with the same error and closed.
    Also Quicktime will no longer work, if I double click a Quicktime movie it opens, but when I click play it closes again.
    I have done the following:
    1) Fully scanned for viruses, spyware etc... my system is always well protected and nothing was found.
    2) De-frag, disk scan, registry cleanup and even a roll back to 1 week ago when it worked (which didn't make it work!)
    3) Completely removed iTunes & Quicktime, and related codecs and registry entries and re installed latest versions.
    4) Completeley removed iTunes, Quicktime, and related codecs and registry entries and installed older versions.
    5) Installed latest iTunes with an older Quicktime and vice versa.
    6) Followed every single step in every related post on this board from people with the same issue.
    Nothing at all works. Right now I have the latest Quicktime and iTunes installed fresh, with no music in my library. If I add even one song it crashes. Quicktime crashes as soon as you press play.
    Every other media player on my system works fine and all of my music plays fine in Media Player.

    I had a similar experience to you. After reading the various postings on the discussion board, I gave up trying to fix 7.0.1 (or later 7.0.2) and went back to 6.0.5.
    I do not have a Nano, so I cannot tell you whether 6.0.5 will work with the Nano or not. However, it works relatively well with my 30 gig video iPod.
    I do still have a few problems such as some podcasts (not all) cause the ipod to crash (but there is a manual fix for this problem - see this link for info: http://jimsrandomwalk.blogspot.com/2006/10/ipoditunes-update-is-flop.html)
    My feeling on this is that the Apple engineers are not blind to the fact that there are problems. However, until the problems rise to the level of causing Apple some market problems, they don't have to worry about the small percentage of us who have these problems. I will not be buying any iTunes until this all gets worked out.
    Good luck with resolving your problems.
    See my earlier post on this thread for info on how to go back to an earlier version of iTUnes.

  • Come on Creative, Get your finger out !

    i have an X-FI Fatality sound card, and i loved it up till i upgraded to Win 7..i now get the static noise from my speakers, i have tried countless drivers from the comunity with no joy.. it works 100% on my set up with XP installed, but im not going back to XP now..i feel tha Creative really need to fix this, it's giving them a bad name in the comunity and everyone i know who had a creative sound card has now gone for ASUS.i feel i will be going that way myself, but wanted to try last time to get this issue sorted, Creative use to mean Excellence?and quality.
    Ive always loved my Fatality,the sound from it with my 2x Z-5500's was insane..but since the static issue i havnt used it..
    But one thing i found weird is i have a 7 C-media sound card i bought 7 years ago for my Anciant set up and it works perfect in Windows 7.
    If C-media can make a decent driver that works perfect with Winows 7 i exspect Creative to do alot better..
    So please, Get your fingers out and give your costamers the suport they deserve

    Hate to Bump my own post, but no one has been replying to it..
    If we get replies maybe they will fix some out standing issues.
    So come on, post post post !!

  • Want to pull your hair out? Try moving the HD/SD combo shows.

    Seems simple enough, right? You download an HD show on your desktop, which also comes with an SD version for your iPhone/iPod, and you want to put it on your laptop. Ah, things are never as simple as they seem. Try it yourself, or, simply back up your show (both versions), delete it from iTunes, and then try to put it back in your library.
    When you attempt to copy the shows back, only the HD version will copy over. The SD version will not be copied. If you try to manually copy the SD show, it won't. If you try simply moving it to the library on your own, next to the HD version, iTunes won't recognize it.
    There is no obvious or simple way to move or restore a combo HD/SD show. It's easy to move the HD or SD show into your library, but not both so they function as they did when first downloaded from iTunes.
    Has anyone else seen this issue? I was finally able to figure out a method to get it to work, but it's very convoluted and involves multiple steps that aren't intuitive.

    maybe it does have to do with other apps. i wish i would have paid attention to when this started occuring so i could narrow down which application might be the culprit.
    the only thing that seems to be working right now is if i take my loop folders out of library/audio. i dragged some to my desktop (don't ask me why i did this) and imported them from there. for some reason they are staying in my loop browser. also when asked where i wanted to put the files, i selected them to go where the rest of the loops are at....in the proper directory. i'm thinking of trying this with all the loops and see what happens. something is corrupted and i'd like to know what and why. i admit, which i am embarrassed about, my computer is a mess. i really need to organise it and all that. actually, i am hoping hoping hoping to get a macbook just for my music. it would make life easier for me seeing i am quickly running out of room on all my hard drives.
    the only loops i am having trouble locating are all the ones i made recently. which i am upset about. but i am sure they are here somewhere. i just need ot wade through the mess to find them.
    thank you for your help.

  • HT5654 How do i pull my phone out of recovery mode if itunes will not load the iPhone support check?

    I need someones help and can tell me the reason why my itunes is flashing error 23 when I go to pull my phone out of recovery mode

    Hi there SarahM426,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • This new version of FireFox is making me nutz! It is SUCKING 100% CPU time almost constantly. I could just pull my hair out. I wpdated once a month or so ag

    I tried to add this in the topic already open but it kept sending me through the unending rabbit holes!
    My question is: How do I figure out what release I was on, get rid of this one and got back to a functional firefox that moves in realtime. I already did all the reset and etc.... I just want to go back to the speed I had. This halting , hanging up misery of a browzer is Sad. I have had firefox for years and always recommended it ..... BUT NOT ANY MORE. I agree with the other poster ... there should be a rollback feature. Peoples time has value and right now FireFox is sucking the value down a rabbit hole.
    See Below Comment Feedback submitted before I finally got here:
    This new version of FireFox is making me nutz! It is SUCKING 100% CPU time almost constantly. I could just pull my hair out. I wpdated once a month or so ago and it slowed down..... but the latest update before I did the reset really slowed me down. I came here to fix it a couple of dayz ago and did the reset firefox and now it IS RUNNING SO POORLY AND SLOW I AM ABOUT TO KILL IT OFF MY MACHINE!!! Yes that is me yelling - and it happened in SSSSSSSSSSSSS LLLLLLLLL OOOOOOOO WWWWWWWWWW Motion. I have run all the security scans and cleanups ---this needs a fix ASAP!!! PS: The hang ups and slowness is EVERYWHERE I go. I only get speed doing programs not connected to ON LINE.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • After downloading iphone pictures to desktop, itunes won't open.  I downloaded itunes 10.6 (64bit) but get "Do you want the following program to make changes to your computer?" Apple Inc.  I've clicked "yes", restarted the computer, and still no luck.

    I also have the same problem, but the Software Updates tool doesn't recognise that Quicktime is out of date. Have you tried downloading Quicktime 7.7 Leopard from http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime as this worked for me...?

  • So you want to get your files out of Aperture? Simple yet scary solution.

    To remove your files from Aperture try this.
    Select files you want to remove.
    Delete them, yes delete them.
    Go directly to trash and double click. Aperture folder in trash contains all of your deleted files and you can remove them all at once.
    Please try this with a few non essential files at first and never empty the trash from the finder during this operation. I did this with 24 files at the Apple Store and it worked fine but make sure it works before you commit large numbers of essential files.
    I want to say that I am very excited about the possibility of fully functional Aperture as advertised. For me this program is currently miles from that point but rest assured when it gets there I wil buy it!

    In reading earlier posts there were several comments from folks who wanted to back ENTIRELY out of Aperture and from the discussions I surmise that some had commited whole libraries of images before testing the product.
    So what good the project export when you want to quit entirely?
    Let's say you have a studio and have been cataloging your files for years in folders by job number, client, and keyword. That you have say 6TB of images easily accessed by no software other than your own internal hard drive. That Aperture comes along and wants you to change your system because Apple says so.
    I tested the software before buying and it falls short in so many areas as to be unusable for me.
    If and when it's fixed I will buy save two hours and it will be paid for.

  • Pulling a program out of the IDE

    I have been playing with pulling small progrograms out of my Integrated development environment (IDE); writing them to CD; and installing them on other desktops, just as an exercise in the case I want to deliver some applications to a friend.
    The overall requirements(steps) are not clear to me.
    1.the directory organization
    2. the file (jar) creation
    3. the D0S (java.exe) window
    Are some of the issue that come to mind.
    I have been able to use a desktop icon and set the path to a program.class file and run it--making the program window appear but the java.exe Dos window also appears.
    So far, the number of texts I have give no step by step instructions on how to configure an environment without an IDE with the java VM already intalled, or how to pull a program out of the IDE and install it along with a copy of the VM on another machine.

    Good question. Lot's of people don't know this, and I can't even say I have all the right answers. There are probably numerous ways you could do this. The best way, if you have the money, is to buy something like InstallAnywhere or Wise that provide professional installations. Not only will your install look like professional installation of stuff like Photoshop, etc but it will also handle issues like OS platform specifics, environment variables, registry entires (if possible), the proper JRE/JDK installed... if not install it, uninstallation features, and so forth. That is by far the best way to go.
    However, often you just want to bundle something up and send it out to a few friends, family, etc. You could of course look for an open source or freeware utitlity and no doubt there are some out there. Or, you could do what a lot of people do now, use the Ant tool (written in Java) and have a build script that does everything for you. I have a simple template build script that is used for various tasks. In our work setup, it does local dev (incremental) compiles, and if necessary packaging it up into .jar/.zip files. My single build script can also run junit tests and reports, builds executable packages into .zip and .jar's as necessary, will do a clean build (great for making sure any code changes don't break some code elsewhere, thus ensuring that your normal incremental build process is not missing something), it can FTP or copy files to locations, it can email results, and so forth. If you don't know about ant, I STRONGLY suggest you learn it quickly, and to me there is no better way than buy the book Java Development with Ant. Two of the main Ant developers/committers wrote the book and it does an excellent job of teaching you about all the different uses of Ant, including the template build script I now use. It is well worth the $40 or so you'll find the book for, and within a week you'll have a good build template that you can modify for specific projects.
    Now, in terms of the 3 things, well, the directory organization is always changing. Each project may have something different, but here is one that I usually use:
    <root project dir>: (below this you'll find)
    /src - location of all src files
    /src/java - the location of the project specific java code
    /src/examples - if need be (especially useful for frameworks and API's you wish to share) show example applications using the output of the /src/java code
    /src/test - location of JUnit, jfcUnit and other test files to unit test your code (very important, should be done no matter what!!)
    /lib - location of any 3rd party libraries you need, both for compilation and runtime. Keep in mind that your build script may pull only a subset of these libraries in for runtime. For example, the /src/test that uses JUnit will require the junit.jar file. You won't need this for runtime, so your build script sets up a compile classpath with junit.jar, and a runtime classpath that will exclude junit.jar, perhaps others.
    /dist - the location that the build script puts all distributable files. This would be any executable .jar file, any .zip file, perhaps other files necessary for distribution. If you were making a large application and planned to burn it to disk, instead of a single .zip file, you may actually build the sub-dirs below the /dist/<your app> type of dir, so that you can simply burn from that <your app> dir to the root of the cd.
    /build - location of all compiled classes, including from /src/java, /src/examples, /src/test.
    /build/classes - the location of compiled java code
    /build/test - the location of test results, including perhaps test data to be used by the test code, and possibly the output dir of test reports
    - /build/test/reports for example for output of test reports.
    /doc - location of any documentation, including the JavaDoc produced by the build script from your src.
    <project root> - this is the location of your build.xml ant build script, if need be. The build script, as you would learn in the book, is set up so that you can move it anywhere and it will still build your project correctly. You may opt to put it in the /scripts dir instead and keep the project root super clean.
    /misc or /etc - common location to put things like properties files, misc files used to build projects. For example, in the building of a EJB application (.jar or .ear file), you will no doubt need the META-INF/application.xml file. Or in a .jar file you need a special META-INF/manifest.mf file. The /misc or /etc dir is a good candidate for these types of things. You can even package it up in your app so that in the .jar file you have /etc/properties/somepropertyfile.properties, and in your code do a simple getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("/etc/properties/somepropertyfile.properties") to always ensure you pull it from this directory. OR, your build script can "change" the location this file goes. It is all up to you.
    That is what I use for all my projects, the dir structure anyway. What you do to build your .jar/.zip files is up to you. You usually don't need to pull the /src dir, the /dist dir, etc into your .jar/.zip files. Normally you'll have the compiled classes at the root. So in your project dir on your disk, you may have <project root>/build/classes/java/org/mycompany/ui/Main.class, and in your .jar file it would simply be <root of .jar file>/org/mycompany/ui/Main.class, and your build file can easily "change" the root path (using <zipfileset prefix=""> task) to change the path of any file. But more of that can be learned in that book and by looking up resources on the net. The Ant JavaDoc API is very good at explaining most of these as well, and there are TONS of ant scripts in most projects to look at for examples.
    The file creation, well, as I said Ant has built in tasks you can use to create .jar files, .zip files, etc. All of that is all built in to how Ant works.
    As for java.exe, well, in a professional app, you usually do one of two things. You either write a simple C/C++/Delphi/some other languages .exe wrapper (for windows) that internall executes the java.exe and runs the JVM to hide the window, as well as provide a .exe file to look more "native", or you run javaw.exe, which hides the Console output window for most apps. NOTE: if you create a .bat shortcut on your desktop to javaw.exe, you will STILL get a console window that shows up. ALL shortcuts to .bat files will always create a console window. Many java developers don't understand why they run javaw.exe from a shortcut on their desktop and still see the console window.
    Now, hopefully that helped a bit. But if not, or you still have questions, I am watching this thread so fire away and I'll help more.
