Solution found for getting itunes to work on windows XP 64 bit

I recently just got an ipod nano and I got it to work on my window xp 64 bit desktop. I followed the instructions from http://skunkwerks.wordpress.com/2008/04/13/getting-itunes-to-work-with-windows-x p-x64/ and it works but it comes up with an error that your ipod requires itunes 8.0 or later because the prior instructions is for itunes version 7.6.2 so you need to go to http://pctech.invisibill.net/?page_id=36 click on the last link and download itunes64setup again, except this time it's for version 8. Repeat the same steps you did for 7.6.2 only for 8 this time.

You can run a 32 bit version of Windows XP in a virtual machine. Microsoft is ending support for XP in less than two years, so you may want to invest in an upgrade.

Why cant I get itunes to work in windows 8? I hate this update issue nothing works- aggh!

Why cant I get itunes update to work in windows 8?
I tried running the new itunes installer since it couldn't update itunes, then I tried the installer with
compatability checked. The older version worked fine till an update came out and now nothing works
(sync /app updates/ photo uploads)- it does still play music on the computer.
My son had older (windows 7) computer but if I sync there it tells me I'm wiped and stuck with his music.
I'm really hating itunes and ready to trash the phone etc. Im due for upgrade anyway.
With all these stupid upgrades why hasn't this issue been addressed. 8 has been out for awhile now.
Has anyone been able to fix this issue? Please share how!

You will need iTunes 9.2.1 at minimum to access the iTunes Store. Earlier versions will not work.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
but it would be best to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6, since it's probable that eventually the iTunes Store will no longer support iTunes 9.x. and newer versions of iTunes will not run on Mac OS X 10.4.
Regards.

What is the best way to get iTunes running on my Windows 7 64 bit system without installing it on my Windows 7 64 bit system?

I had iTunes installed on XP before upgrading my system and with all the install and uninstall issues I don't want to go through the same thing with Windows 7.
So, I'm looking for a way to get iTunes running on my system without installing it (like maybe in a Virtual OS on VirtualBox or VMWare.)
Something that I can easily restore and/or repair (Windows 7 Restore Points/backup options are not viable because they restore EVERYTHING to the state they were in when they were created.)
TYIA
Any suggestions will help as to the best way of doing this.

LOL Yeah, right, that's very funny...
I did that on XP so I know better now!
Here is just 1 example of many:
On XP the uninstall wouldn't work so I coudn't upgrade iTunes. In order to fix this without Re-Installing XP, I had to delete iTunes and then manually remove it from the registry and from Add/Remove programs before I could Install the new version. Eventualy it did work after 1 and a half days of repairs...
I'm not going through the same type of problems on Windows 7 that just simply waste my time!

Cannot get Itunes to open in windows 7 64 bit

I have installed after a complete reformating of my hard disk, installed and reinstalled itunes several times after a complete unistall of all related programs and tried just about everything that is recommended. What can I do to get itunes to open on my computer

Are you getting any error messages? Perhaps this post would be more suited for the iTunes forums since it's an issue with the iTunes application itself and not your iPod.

Remove iTunes Preference files
Some of the files that iTunes uses to store settings and preferences may be unusable and cause issues. iTunes has two folders where preferences are saved. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The location for the two preference folders are:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes

I can't get Itunes to work with windows 8.1

I saved my ITunes file from my old XP computer to my external hard drive. On my new Win 8.1 computer
I downloaded the 64 bit version of Itunes. I changed the default location of the ITune file to my D(data) drive. My C drive is solid state and I did not want to load up that drive. I then placed the ITunes files on the selected location on my D drive but nothing shows up in the library. Any help out there?

1) In Device Manager, you could right clickSound icon selecting Update Drivers

ITunes stopped working on Windows 7 64 bit

iTunes worked fine yesterday afternoon and in the evening I could not get it to run.
I checked the Windows Task Manager and I can see it starting up and then exiting.
I've checked my application log and this is the error I got:
Windows cannot access the file C:\Windows\SysWOW64\dssenh.dll for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program iTunes because of this error.
The file dssenh.dll does exist in the SysWOW64 directory and I've run regsvr32 on it to make sure it is registered.
If you need anymore information, I am happy to supply it.
Thanks.

ITunes not working on Windows 7 64-bit

Updated iTunes couple days ago and now it won't open at all. Removed and reinstalled and still nothing. Now what?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

You need to download the 64 bit version.

That should fix up any issue you are having with the loading of iTunes.

How can I get SQL Developer working on Windows 7 64-bit

Hi all,
I've followed the download instructions for SQL Developer v4 as per the download page (
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/sqldev-download-v4-1925679.html
Install instructions: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/sqldev-install-windows-1969674.html
I've installed SQL Developer requires JDK 7 (jdk-7u25-windows-x64.exe) - with no issues.
I've also downloaded and unziped to sqldeveloper-4.0.0.12.27-no-jre.zip to C:\Program Files\
SQL Developer successfully starts, but when I try to connect to a data source, I get the following error:
Status : Failure -Test failed: C:\Oracle11g\product\11.2.0\client_1\BIN\ocijdbc11.dll: Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform.
can any tell me how I fix this issue........... I getting fed up using clunky toad

You're trying to use a 32 bit Oracle Client with 64 bit SQL Developer.
You're doing something in SQL Developer that's requiring us to load OCI - in your connection properties, use Network Alias instead of Connect Identifier for TNS, or make sure in your Advanced settings you don't have 'Use OCI/Thick driver' enabled.
Or, install a 64 bit copy of the Oracle Client and tell SQL Developer to use that home instead.

Is there a download for itunes that runs on windows xp 64-bit

do you have an itunes download for windows xp
64-bit

No, there is no 64 bit version that will run on XP.
However if you are prepared to to some hacking, some people have got ot to work.
Here is an example:
http://skunkwerks.wordpress.com/2008/04/13/getting-itunes-to-work-with-windows-x p-x64/
You may find others with Google.
iTunes itself is a 32 bit application, the 64 bit installer has 64 bit drivers.

I can't get new version of itunes to install on Windows 7 64 bit computer. Receive message that reads insufficient privileges to access c:\program files\ipod\bin. Tried to follow some suggestions found here but nothing is working. Any new suggestions?

I can't get new version of itunes to install on Windows 7 64 bit computer. Receive message that reads insufficient privileges to access c:\program files\ipod\bin. I've followed several threads I've read here but nothing is working.

For such situation, I'd suggest the following:
1. Remove current installed office with the fix-it tool in
KB2739501, and follow the "Remove Office manually" section to make sure there are no remaining files
2. Either download a trial version of Office 2013 from
http://office.microsoft.com/, or from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj937170
3. Reboot your computer in clean boot mode, and run setup again
