Vista 64bit and iTunes 8.2.0.23 - interface problems

I've had these strange iTunes interface issues ever since I moved to Vista 64bit a while ago.
I can't adjust the volume using the volume slider at the top of the iTunes window (to the right of the Play buttons) The volume slider won't respond to my mouse.
I can't scroll the library window using the scroll bar on the right side of the iTunes window. I have to either scroll with my mouse wheel or click the arrows at the top and bottom of the scroll bar.
I also can't resize the library columns. They are either very narrow, or if I double click the column edge they will auto resize, then I am stuck with them set at the widest item in the list.
I recently uninstalled iTunes, QuickTime, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Devices and the Apple Updater. I then searched my Hard Drive and Registry for anything left over from Apple or iTunes and deleted it.
I then downloaded and installed the latest iTunes, hoping that these issues would be resolved, but I am still having the same issues with the latest version.
Any ideas would be welcome.
I just realized I have another issue. I can't import my playlists from Windows Media Player either. I've added my Music folder to the iTunes playlist (the same one that Windows Media Player users) and went to File -> Library -> Import Play list -> chose my WMP playlist (a .wpl file) -> clicked Open and nothing happens.

Ok, so I saved my Windows Media Player playlist as M3U files and imported them into iTunes. Wow! What a complete mess that made of my library.
All songs that were on the playlists (hundreds of songs) were duplicated in my iTunes library. iTunes would show two entries for each song. When I right clicked and choose 'Show in Windows Explorer' both entries point to the same song, it just shows up twice in iTunes.
I cleared my iTunes library file and am starting over. I'm thinking about just going back to Windows Media Player. I've been listening to music off my Blackberry and it's really been fine. Just seemed a shame that my iPod was sitting in a drawer because of all the issues I'm having with iTunes and Vista.
The original problem I had months ago was that iTunes crashed on Vista and lost all my Playlists. I was so upset I put all my music on my SD card on my Blackberry, because Windows Media Player makes it so easy to back up your playlists. They are saved as files and can be included in any automatic backups (I have scheduled backups to another hard drive)
I thought with this new version of iTunes I could at least export the playlists to files so they can be backed up, I just don't know if I can face re-creating the playlists in iTunes.

  • Windows Vista 64bit and Zen, Video Convertsion

    We just updated out computer to one with Windows Vista 64bit.
    Everything was fine until we tried to convert a .mov file to place it on the Zen. First it said we needed Quicktime ver 7 (which apparently the original video was created with). Tried to install that, to no avail. Turns out Quicktime 7 is not supported under Vista 64bit, according to Apple.
    I then found on another message board of people having trouble running iTunes on Vista 64. Use the following link:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    You can then select the 64bit version of iTunes.
    After the install the video conversion worked perfectly.
    Hope this helps others.
    Thanks

    Can I run 64bit Vista in Bootcamp?
    Yes. Both the computer and OS X are fully 64-bit compliant.
    You can install a second video card that does not work with OS X but does work with Windows. Third-party video cards do not work with OS X because they do not have the EFI boot ROM required by OS X. They will, however, work when you boot into Windows. You do not need to convert the Mac Pro to a Windows-only machine which would seem a waste of perfectly good hardware and software.
    You can install any SATA hard drive in the Mac Pro. There is no limitation with regard to size. Cache, however, is a feature of the drive and not the computer. Apple does not "qualify" drives for use with the computer.
    These questions have been discussed in the Mac Prp fourms so I suggest you search the forums for other discussions of the topics.

  • Windows 7 64bit and itunes 10.5 "itunes has stopped working"

    itunes suddenly stopped working yesterday. I updated to the latest version. I started itunes and as it was opening and showing messages such as "reviewing library" and "genius starting", I received a message that said "itunes stopped working"...closing program. I tried removing itunes and re-installing....and same problem. I checked the problem reports in Windows 7 and this is what it said:

    Note: I tried running itunes in "itunes safe mode" (i.e. holding control-shift-itunes) at start up and itunes works fine.
    What can I do to fix this issue? I am running Windows 7 (64 bit)

    I'm experiencing the same issue, but I was able to get itunes to run by turning off genius.  I've heard that others had to turn off itunes Match as well.  If you start up itunes while your computer is not connected to the Internet you shoulld be able to start itunes and then disable these items.
    I'm trying to determine a root cause because I'd like to use genius.  Stay tuned...

  • Windows Vista 64 and Itunes/Ipod

    Evening all,
    Was wondering if anyone has had any issues using Itunes or an Ipod with Windows Vista 64?
    Cheers

    This was a small issue within WinXP. Maybe the solution for that would work with Vista.
    If you get any message about "Another User", an "iPod Service Error" alert appears, or “Please reinstall iTunes" appears, turn off the 'Fast User Switching' - even if no one else is using the computer (Win XP environment).
    ==>Start=>Control Panel=>User Accounts=>Change the way users log on and off ==> Remove the check mark from FUS.
    See: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93764

    Best of Luck

  • Vista 64 and Itunes 7.6.0.29

    I downloaded itunes 7.6 this morning on my Vista 64 system. It installed without a hitch. I then plugged up my iphone which I have been syncing on my son's 32 bit XP system, it recognized the iphone after self installing drivers. I then actually downloaded 1.1.3 and installed it to my iphone on the 64 bit system. I merged the contacts and synced, had to erase the music but it now works on my 64 bit system. Has anyone else noticed this?

  • Vista RC1 and itunes authorizations

    Has anyone else upgraded to Vista RC1? I just did yesterday, and now whenever I try to play a song I bought on itunes, it asks me to authorize this computer. I enter in my password and it tells me that the computer has been authorized, but when I go to play the file it tells me I am not activated again. The cycle doesn't end.
    Any suggestions?

    I have the exact same problem. All Apple Support will do is suggest I unistall and re-install iTunes. I have done so three times and even taken off all my music and it still won't work.
    I am hoping some future build will resolve it. In the meantime, I am not using iTunes.

  • Vista 64bit and PS CS4 - Poor Performance

    I have been having a terrible time with CS4 and my 64bit system.  I mostly work with files in the 1-2MB range, not large by any means. I will process 2 or 3 photos, and close them.. no problem.  But every 3rd or 4th photo, when I open the file, or try to resize/crop it,  I get the dreaded "not responding" message and end up waiting 30 seconds to a minutes for PS to come back alive.  Obviously this is extremely disruptive to my workflow.
    I have gone so far as to wipe my system clean, but still experience the same problem.  It is a fairly consistent issue that always happens when I process multiple photos.
    Anyone else experiencing similar problems? Is there some obvious solution I am missing?
    My specs are as follows..
    Intel iCore 7 2.66 Mhz
    9GB DDR3
    ATI Radeon 4850 512MB
    Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit
    PS CS4 Extended (with 11.1 update)
    Thanks,
    Brian

    What Memory % do you have allocated in Edit > Preferences > Performance?
    Which is your primary scratch drive?
    You could try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.

    You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
    This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
    A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

  • Windows7 (64bit) and itunes 64-bit installer failing

    I'm trying to install the itunes 64-bit installer on my new windows7 64bit system to sync my phone and pad but comes up with the following error
    any ideas?

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • Windows Vista Calendar and Itunes

    Does anyone know how to get I-Tunes to use Windows Vista Calendar. I-Tunes says there is "No supported calendar application can be found." Does anyone know how to get I-Tunes / IPhone to sync with the Windows Vista Calendar?

    Windows Mail is an email client only, which was a name change for Outlook Express with Vista. Windows Mail does not include a calendar.
    The iPhone supports syncing contacts and calendar events with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
    If you are able to sync Gmail calendar events with the calendar application included with Windows, you can access a Gmail account with the iPhone's Mail client as an Exchange account via ActiveSync, which provides for over the air syncing for Gmail online contacts and calendar events.

    it actually causes the drive to go into a closed read cycle, and then the drive disappears from my computer and I have to reboot.
    Odd. That sounds a bit like a device filter issue. But your filters look fine in your diagnostics.
    iTunes 9.1.1.11 was just released today ... I don't see any changes in the package for that that have obvious relevance to a CD burning issue, but it might be worth trying an update, just in case. (There's a library file update with this one, so it may take a while for your iTunes to launch the first time you launch it after the update.)
