Strange message when opening iTunes

When I start my iTunes, I receive the message "The Registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of intalling other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.
I have not installed any new CD/DVD drivers, and I have reinstalled ITunes twice. Please help!

Try downloading the songs from a different device. If you are doing it from your iOS device, try form your computer.

Error Message when open iTunes -42032. What can I do?

Try 2 solutions: 1. Press both Ctrl and Shift keys then double click on ITunes. Hold keys down until a box appears on screen indicating ITunes is starting in "safe mode'. left click on 'continue" and ITunes will run without closing.
2; Start ITunes normally, then after loading, choose "Match" and then touch "stop" beforre step 3 , Uploading songs...", runs for more than a few seconds. The code problems are in Match; the uploading function in Match. ITunes won't crash if you stop Match soon enough!

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Error message when opening iTunes after updating Windows 8.1

I recently updated my windows software to 8.1. Now I am getting a message that iTunes stopped responding and must close. I tried to uninstall and reinstall iTunes but that has not fixed the problem. I cannot get iTunes to open. There is no error number when this dialogue box opens.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello Socestlavie,
It sounds like iTunes is not opening correctly and is quitting on launch. I would troubleshoot the iTunes launch issues with the following article to help resolve the issue:
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
First attempt starting iTunes in Safe Mode to see if the issue persists, and proceed accordingly.
Start iTunes in Safe Mode
Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
Click Continue.
See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
If it comes down to reinstalling iTunes, there is an article provided that will uninstall iTunes AND its associated softwares for a complete wipe, and reinstall, so I would try that one more time, if needed.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Error message when opening itunes; won't update or uninstall itunes

a few months ago, i downloaded the new version of itunes and safari together. once downloaded, my computer restarted and wouldn't turn back on. i repeatedly attempted to run my computer but, once it was turned back on, it just stayed on a solid black screen. finally, and by some random occurrence, my computer came back on and ran normally with one exception, i got an error message every time i tried to open itunes. when i click on itunes to open it, i get a message that says "this action is only valid for products that are installed" itunes is most certainly installed on my computer. i then tried to reinstall the new version of itunes, but it tells me it can't locate itunes.msi. and i get the same message when i try to uninstall it.
i tried to go through my OS (C:), then program files, and then right-click on itunes and delete it, but i constantly get a message that says "permission is required" so i select try again.
i also tried to download the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility, but that too gives me an error message when i try to run it.
i'm hopeless! pleeeeeease help me.

i also tried to download the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility, but that too gives me an error message when i try to run it.
Is that an 800A0046 error, megan?
If so, can you get CleanUp to install if you do a run as administrator, as per the following document?
[Error "800A0046 - Permission Denied" when installing the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility in Windows Vista|http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/170/1/Error-800A0046---Permission-D enied-when-installing-the-Windows-Installer-Cleanup-Utility-in-Windows-Vista.htm l]
If you're getting a different error message from CleanUp, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Error message when opening iTunes and Mail

I'm running OS X 10.6.8 on a Mac Book.
Since the recent 'hack' reports, I subsequently changed my Apple Password.
Since then, when I open iTunes I get the error message:
"You are signed in with a different Apple ID than previously used with podcsts. Do you want to sunc these podcast subscriptions and stations with <my e-mail address>?
If you chose to sync then these podcasts and stations will be merged with any that have been syncing on other devices or computers.""
If I click the highlighted blue 'Sync' button, it does sync, but it's frustrating that I always get the error message. Why is this happening?
Also, when trying to use Gmail, I now get the error message:
"Enter Password for Account GMail.
Enter the password for user <my g-mail address> on POP server imap.gmail.com"
Neither my old or new password allows me to use Mail. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Have you received "Exception processing Message" when opening iTunes?

When I attempt to open iTunes my computer gives me the following message "Exception processing message c0000013 Parameters 75b6bf9c 4 75b6bf9c 75b6bf9c" In top left corner of the window it says Windows no disk.
I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled but it does the same thing. What's more frustrating is when you buypass the message, open iTunes, and then try to download album art, the message pops up with every album searched. Any ideas????

hmmmm. i managed to find one discussion on that error message over at the Windows Newsgroups (they were getting it from different programs):
Discussions in Virus Discussions
(click on the post with the title "exception processing message c0000013 - AVG anti-rootkit".)
following up on their investigations ... do you have a pen drive or some other similar drive installed on your PC?

TS3074 iTunes for Windows: "Error 7" message when opening iTunes in Windows 8

I have Windows 8 (64bit). I have uninstalled iTunes and re-installed iTunes several times as it has constantly instructed me to do. It says that iTunes has been sucessfully installed; however, when I try to open iTunes, I keep getting the message "iTunes for Windows: Error 7 (windows error 127)".

Here is what it said....But every time I reinstall iTunes it says it was successful. I'm using Windows 8 (64 bit).

Error message when opening itunes...please help

I recently tried to purchase music on the itunes store, and was told to do so I had to upgrade to itunes 7, which i had put off for quite a while...however, now that I have done so, I get a error that comes up each time I open iTunes, telling me a newer version of quicktime is required, despite the fact I HAVE that new version, and whenever I try to install a standalone version of the most recent quicktime, it tells me a newer version of quicktime is already installed.
Anyway, this is the error message: "QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires Quicktime version 7.1.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes."
Whenever I try and install a non-standalone version of the newest iTunes, this doesn't seem to effect the situation so could anyone help? Would be appreiciated...thanks...

i've just checked the Add/Remove programs list, and Quicktime doesn't appear to be on it.
okay, let's try a slightly different technique for swapping out the QuickTime that can get past those sorts of issues.
Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
7. Restart your computer.
next, we'll try to get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

Strange message when opening a FCP file

Hello, I have recently updated my Final Cut Studio to have FCP6 and when I open a project that uses Apple Pro Res it tells me this:
"File format is too new for this program"
Any thoughts on why this is so?
Thanks in advance for any help

You will see this message when you attempt to open a project file that was created on a version of FCP that is newer than the version that you are using.
What version of Final Cut Pro was used to create the project?
What version of Final Cut Pro do you currenty have?
I know you said FCP6 in your post, but the *point version* is important.
(6.0.1, 6.0.2 etc, with 6.0.5 being current)

I receive an error message when opening iTunes

Wehn opening iTunes, I immediately receive an error message that iTunes has stopped working. The program previously worked. I uninstalled and reinstalled. Still the same problem. Working on a PC laptop Windows Home Vista is OS.

SInce this is an issue with iTunes, you should post this in the iTunes forum. You'll likely get a much quicker more informated response there.

Error message when opening itunes, quicktime streaming failed to load...

I downloaded itunes, installed it, and when I try to open I get the message "quicktime streaming failed to load because it was already loaded" Then it closes. Anyone know what's going on?
Windows XP

okay ... let's try a careful standalone QT 7.1 reinstall.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

Strange message when opening an image in PS5

Sometimes when I open an image in CS5 I get this weird message It reads "photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver
and has temporily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturers website for the latest software. GPU enhancements can be
enabled in the perfermormance panel of preferences" I am really at a loss as to what this means./when I go to preferences then performance I get this large screen with numerences choices, none of which mean anything to me. Does anyne have any advice or assistance. Honestly I cannot tell any change when I continue to process the selected image. But all that information has got to mean something.
Jim Reasoner

You likly have a buggy display driver. They're fairly common.
Adobe describes the GPU-specific features (which you're losing when it disables OpenGL) here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405745.html
What you need to do to solve the problem at the root cause is (assuming you have a desktop computer) to visit the web page of the maker of your video card (e.g., nVidia or ATI) and download/install the latest display driver for your hardware and OS.
If you have a laptop usually you have to get the display drivers from the laptop maker's web site.
