Question: Why does iTunes try and install a webcam?

When I try and upgrade to the latest version of iTunes, it attempts to install a Logitec QuickCam and keeps asking for a CD to install the driver from.
This strikes me as a little odd ... is this normal for apple applications, or just an undocumented feature?
After hitting cancel many times, on the quickcam install popup, it eventually aborts the install completely.

good gracious, Joshua ... you're actually the
b second
person i've seen report this ...
the family cat once managed to overcome something like this. will the same trick work for you?
the family cat, "Upgrade from 6.0 to 6.0.1 -> broken due to Logitech QuickCam", 01:48am Oct 26, 2005 CDT
keep us posted.
love, b

  • Reinstalled Itunes and how have 4 to 8 copies of all music (7,500). This has happened before, called apple, sorry you will need to delete each. question why does it happen and can it corrected without one song at a time

    reinstalled itunes and have 4 to 8 copies of each song. This is the third time has happened over last 3 years. Called Apple, they state must delete extra songs manually, is there a quicker way and why does this happen. I have Iphone, can I delete all music and copy from phone?

    Man I hear your pain, same happened to me. I never worked out a way of deleting all the duplicates and I'm guessing it occured as you imported your library more than once.
    However it is possible to delete everything and copy from an ipod using different utilities out there on the net, try googling ipodutil as an expample, although I don't know if this works from an iphone but it worked for me copying everything back from an ipod into itunes.

  • Why does iTunes tries to install iOS 6.1.3 instead of iOS7 in my iPhone 4s

    I downloaded the iOS7 beta version from the developers website (my company is registered in the dev program) in my iPHone 4s.
    When the finall version finally came out I started noticing issues with the battery (it drained too fast) and I read that doing a full restore helped with this issue.
    But then when I try to restore my iPhone using iTunes it gives me an error saying that the resource could not be found. I then try to put the iPhone in recovery mode to 'force' the restore and then it does not give the same error but it tries to download the version 6.1.3 of the software which can't install either becuse it says the iPHone is ineligible.
    What do I do?

    Now with 7.0.2 out heres the status.
    - iTunes says there is no update available and that 7.0 is the most up to date version (which is not).
    - If I click restore instead of update in iTunes, it again gives me an error saying that there was an error downloading the software.
    - If I force it by putting the device in recovery mode then It doesnt fail to download the software but it one more time tries to download version 6.1.3 and if I go ahead and try to install that, it says the iPhone is ineligible.
    - If I try to update the iphone from within iOS it fails as well.
    Help me please, don't know what else to try.

  • Why does iTunes 64-bit install in the 32-bit Program Files folder?

    If "iTunes 8.2.1 for Windows (64 bit)" is really a 64 bit application then why does the installer want to put the program into C:\Program Files (x86)\ on Vista 64-bit instead of C:\Program Files\? Is this just sloppy work by the Apple programmers or is this the first sign of potentially more problems with iTunes 64-bit?

    If "iTunes 8.2.1 for Windows (64 bit)" is really a 64 bit application
    It's not.

  • Why does iTunes create and run playlists when I add folders to the library? How do I stop it?

    Just as the title says.
    Some albums, when added to the iTunes library, will auto-play and create a playlist. Is there any way to stop this?

    What version of Windows do you have?
    If the downloaded scripts open as text files then you may need to install the Windows Scripting Host: Windows Script 5.7 for Windows XP
    It may be that the file association for .vbs files is incorrectly set.

  • Question: Why does iTunes demand that I restore my 3G each time I connect?

    I have the iPhone 3G, and every time I plug it into iTunes 7.7.1, it makes me restore..every **** time! How can one avoid this??

    Restore it as a new phone, and it wont ask again.
    I had exactly the same problem after upgrading to 2.0.1 and did this, and it now works great. Make sure you have saved your contacts etc, and you will have to put your music back on, but then it should work as intended.

  • Why does apple try and make you pay for something you haven't received then they blackmail you by blocking my iPad from receiving updates?

    My daughter tried to purchase an order with a maxed out credit card, she then canceled the order or rather tried to. Since that I haven't been able to update my apps nor download free ones. So I contract apple they return an email to me saying that I must pay for the order I don't want let alone did not receive, I return the email within two minutes since then nothing. They say I must pay for the order or I will not be able to use my apps. This is the **** I have begun to expect from Icrap steve jobs we miss you.

    @roaming lah blah whatever check your appleophile crap at the door I received nothing they received nothing I'm not paying for nothing I would pay if they had mistakenly sent something and didn't receive payment but they sent me nothing therefor this is absolutely blackmail to attempt to coerce me into paying for a sale never completed as far as all sales are final well where does that apply smartass? A definition of sale is payment rendered for product received. Neither one applies they tried to process my card NSF that means they don't send product, correct Sherlock or am I guessing that you think a major conglomerate always has the little guys best interests at heart? This is a ludicrous issue from apple, especially after I bought a basic toy that can't compute as much as a net book from acer for three times the price Nuff.  Said

  • Why does Itunes encounter a problem and stops every time I try to sync my home videos - help please

    Why does Itunes encounter a problem every time I try to sync my home videos - it just won't sync them - help please !!!!

    Re-installing iTunes wont erase your folders, unless your iTunes is a very old version pre-iTunes 9 series.
    I would suggest to download the latest iTunes, it would solve your problem as in this earlier  post

  • HT1926 Why does Itunes installed on a Toshiba Satelite with windows 8 not recognize my Ipone or Ipad?

    Why does Itunes installed on a Toshiba Satelite with windows 8 not recognize my Iphone or Ipad?

    It's possible that charger damaged some part of the connection on the iPad. There's little metal contacts on that small silicon chip sticking out of the port and if something happens to one of those little contacts it can effect how it works.
    You can try taking it into an apple store and have them look at it. If you'd only used 'official' stuff there'd probably be no question but once they know that the damage, potential damage, was caused by a third party device, then it may be up to the discretion of the manager what they do with it. Whether they replace it under warranty or decide that the warranty is void (I honestly don't know how strict they can be with the use of third party devices and how they may/may not work)

  • Why does itunes in France have a complete lack of english language content on the TV programmes... prefering to release dubbed programmes and not the original english language content, surely it will cost nothing to release both?

    Why does itunes in France have a complete lack of english language content... prefering to release dubbed programmes and not the original english language content?
    It would be just as easy to release both a dubbed version and then a subtitled version.
    I am a native english speaker but live in France. My father has just moved over to live with me in France and speaks very little French.
    The price for a television series is very often more than a dvd box set but does not offer language options.
    My French is passable but I would still prefer to hear the programme in English.
    Using itunes uk is not an option as my cards are french or english with a french postal address.
    The content has been adapted for the french site all i want is to access the original.
    The series i have been trying to buy is HBOs 'boardwalk empire'.
    The stupid thing is to please my father i would buy up most the HBO, BBC and Channel 4 content a cost of a couple of thousand euros.

    Try giving Apple feedback: http://www.apple.com/feedback and also contact the Apple headquarters at http://www.apple.com/contact  We are all fellow users and not Apple employees and often raise questions like yours ourselves.  If enough make Apple aware of a market/need then something may be done about it.
    France has come a very long way with regard to other languages.  When I lived in France, mid-880s, there was an entire Ministry devoted to the purity of the French language...that was the time the PC came out.  A TV news person was cashiered for using the term 'computer' on-air instead of the French created word 'ordinateur'.  They took the language extremely seriously at that time.  At least today there is recognition and even use of English by the masses

  • Why can I download and install CS6beta but the program does not activate???

    Why can I download and install CS6beta but the program refuses to be activated on the idiotic grounds that either I am not connected to the internet or my computer clock is not showing the right time?  If in New Zealand we're not allowed to use the beta, why does Adobe not have the decency and courtesy of telling us so and why instead of feeding us with those stupid putoffs???
