Title in iTunes program not == iTunes

My Library is located in C:\itunes\ and my database file is inside C:\itunes\!library_info\
This makes my iTunes library title "!library_info" which is very annoying. Before version 9 my iTunes just had the title "iTunes". Now it doesn't, which is annoying. What can we do to fix this Apple? I took a peak inside the Library Database file with Textpad, and I could not find anything that defines the library title in iTunes.
This is very annoying, and needs a fix or workaround ASAP

As Katrina says, iTunes 9 gives the title of the iTunes Window the name of the folder in which the iTunes library resides. If you want to change the window title then you will need to rename the folder.
Moving/renaming bits of your iTunes libray via Windows Explorer or Finder can easily lead to broken links & confusion, but there are a few things which generally work.
With everything in the "normal" layout, as shown in the image posted earlier, it is usually possible to move the enclosing iTunes folder as a complete unit. This is ideal for moving your library to a bigger drive with more free space and keeping everything together means it's easy to do againn the next time. This method also preserves the existing file & folder names within the iTunes Media folder for those like me who prefer to keep control over such things. The "official" Apple way is to let iTunes copy the contents of the media folder which, while it can work, means letting iTunes take control of all your files & folders and makes it more likely that the library will break if, for example, drive letters change unexpectedly.
If the media folder (outlined in red) stays in the same place it is usually possible to move the library files & artwork folder someplace else and, using the SHIFT-start iTunes method, open the library and find all the media still connected.
With this last in mind you could rename your !library_info folder as iTunes, then hold down SHIFT while starting iTunes, navigate to C:\iTunes\iTunes and open the library. If anything fails to work, just undo the rename & revert back. A more common scenario, often caused by people using the recommended relocation method, is to have the iTunes folder located in the user's Music folder.

How can i transfer the entire itunes program (not the library,but the actual program itself) from one cpu to another? I have the older version that has the slide feature. I can't stand the new itunes.

HOW CAN I TRANSFER THE ITUNES PROGRAM ( NOT THE LIBRARIES,BUT THE ACTUALLY EXE PROGRAM ) FROM ONE CPU TO ANOTHER. I CAN'T
STAND THE NEW ITUNES. I WANT TO TRANSFER MY OLD ONE THAT STILL HAS THE SLIDER FEATURE. THANKS

Sounds like you've already installed iTunes 11 and are now trying to downgrade. To do so successfully you will also need access to a pre-upgrade copy of your library as set out below...
The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
With iTunes 11.0.3 you can enable artwork in the Songs & List views from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view.
If you still feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

I can no longer edit the info for my songs, movies and tv shows. This occurred since I loaded Windows 7 Pro on my C drive, and then fownloaded ITunes 10. Why will the program not allow me to access the track info to edit it?

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

Itunes install error message - program not found ...x64/difxinst64.exe

itunes install error message - program not found ...x64/difxinst64.exe
no problems with ITunes on Dell Inspiron Windows 7 until yesterday. ITunes version 11.0.2. iphone won't connect stating required software is not installed. uninstall and install 64 bit version of iTunes. I have 64 bit version already. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times already. When re-installing ITunes get error message c:\programdata\34be82c4-e596-4e99-a191-52c6199ebf6\x64\difxinst64.exe. file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. please install or create an association in the Default Programs control panel. iTunes install continues after the difxinst64.exe error message but then get the iphone cannot be used error message again. therefore, I can't sync my iphone with iTunes until I figure this out.
can't win for losing. had iTunes on my windows 7 laptop for 4 years. first time I've ever encountered this.

I am a PC Tech and had a customer with this issue. Ran across this post in my search and ended up finding the solution on my own. The problem isn't with the iTunes software but the installer for the GEARAspi drivers. Really the issues is with the file type asssociations in the windows registry. On the system I was working on the HKCR key for .exe should point to the exefile key but pointed to nothing. To fix it create a new txt document and paste the following in (only paste what is in between the [code][/code] tags):
[code]
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe]
@="exefile"
"Content Type"="application/x-msdownload"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe\PersistentHandler]
@="{098f2470-bae0-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"
[/code]
Now change the extension from .txt to .reg. Then right click and select merge. iTunes should now install properly.

Help! iTunes has completely disappeared off my iPhone 4s, yes the program, not just the app, and all my music has gone! How can I get this back? Thanks!!

(p.s. I do suspect a deletion has occurred courtesy of my 4 year old nephew, some other stuff has gone too, but beats me how he deleted a whole program!!!)

Itunes program not responding

My Itunes program is not responding. Any ideas what I need to do to fix the problem?

I´ll take my chances and reply to this as I have exactly the same problem.
(1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
No, F-secure AV 2006. Still, I disabled it
(2) try launching your QuickTime. does it:
Launching QT before iTunes works well. No problem. Launching QT after I´ve tried to launch iTunes, nothing happens.
All the processes remains under the processes tab.
The itunes.exe is impossible to kill though. I can remove any other process but this one is impossible.
I tried reboot, disabled the internet connection and my anti-virus but it still refuses to start. I just get the hour clock, that disappears and then...nothing. Not even an error message.
Oh, I forgot: after I´ve tried to start iTunes I can´t access Explorer. Program not responding. So I must reboot after every attempt to resolve the problem.

How do I remove my book titles from iTunes bookstore?

How do I remove my book titles from iTunes bookstore?

With regard the reply or part of, which you edited out..... as you already have the book(s) on sale elsewhere, it is not costing you anything to have them on the iBooks store, so why remove from sale??
I also note the price comparisons and suggest that this may be a factor in low (any) sales so maybe its an area you could consider. Also, if you have a website/ facebook etc,. are you promoting sales via you friends and followers.
In iTunes Connect > Deliver your Content are a number of PDfs to download, one of which covers Marketting, it may be worth looking at it.
Other than that,, good look with your books where ever they are on sale.

IBook titles on ITunes, For us frequent flyers

There needs to be IBook titles on ITunes. When I check into a Hotel I don't want to have to buy 2 internet connections to get IBooks. That's crazy, Dublin Ireland Grand Hyatt being the most expensive at 29 pounds a connection, that's over $100 a day to download Ibooks.I'm in London now at 15 pounds per IP address per day, that's still over $50 dollars a day to hook up both laptop and IPad, I'm not going to do it.. This is making me look like the idiot on our crew for buying this thing before our tour of UK. Everyone keeps asking how it is and I can't say. If I could buy the books on ITunes like everything else then there would be NO PROBLEM.

Why do you need two internet connections? Can't you just create an ad-hoc network?

Delete titles in itunes folder, deleted from itunes "music"

hi,
i deleted many titles in itunes, but kept them in the itunes folder.
now i want to delete them completely, how can i do so?
thank you

if you let iTunes manage your library, the original files will be in <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music/music.
you can either delete the files manually or use this script:
Music Folder Files Not Added v2.0
This application will list the file paths of the files in your designated "iTunes Media" folder which are not in iTunes' library. Additionally, you can select a different parent folder and its contents will be compared to the iTunes library. Options to Add a selection of found files to iTunes or move them to the Trash.

When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it

When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it?

The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside in order to purchase iTunes content.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching the billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations, although it’s worth nothing that features like iTunes in the CLoud and iTunes Match are designed to work best when using a single iTunes Store account, as you can only switch accounts with these services every 90 days."

I am unable to see menu titles in itunes

Hye, I am unabvle to see the menu titles in itunes on window7.

One thing you should definitely try is keeping your iPhone 4 connected via USB cable in your computer and restarting. This should make the computer recognize that it is connected and as long as you have your iTunes set up to automatically open upon connection with your iPhone you should be all set!
