  • Help! my windows PC with Vista will not dowload itunes 10.7.  It gives me an error message: Your system has not been modified

    Help! my windows PC with Vista will not dowload itunes 10.7.  It gives me an error message: Your system has not been modified.I
    I have tried unistalling the current version I had which was 10.6.3, defragging and running a security scan. Now, the highest version I can get is 10.4.1. for some reason I cannot dowload itunes 10.5 or higher as it gives me the same message which is what I need to connect and update my iphone.  Anyone facing the same issue or can point me in the right direction?

    You may get better information on that error message by reposting in the iPhone forums:
    iPhone
    It's also possible that newer iPhone updates want an OS higher than Tiger. Post the specs of your computer and we can see if an OS upgrade is possible. There are a large number of G4 variants with different capabilities, so giving us something more than  just "G4" will get you help faster.

    Do you have the driver installed for the device?You can find that here.http://support.creative.com/download...ale=033&nPage= WMP is for MTP devices which the Xtra is not, There is a firmware update for the device HOWEVER updating to that firmware may just kill the player so I would not advise doing it since you have XP & you will be able to sync using MediaSource. Did you install the Creative Zen & Nomad Jukebox plug-in 5.00.22? Click on Show Details & read them before installing anything.

  • Vista will not boot/install after performing a restore to factory settings on satellite l305

    I have a satellite l305 that i bought new thru walmart.com about a year & a half ago, and for the past few months it seems like there are more & more issues with this pc that are causing it not to work properly-everything from drivers failing-or even disappearing, in some cases-to  crashing into a blue screen everytime i insert a micro sd card into the slot.. My sound drivers are gone & even after i THOUGHT i downloaded them again, they still won't install or even recognize that they are there and then yesterday it suddenly stopped being able to fully load some of my fave games  that i play daily.. I have tried EVERY SINGLE SUGGESTION in EVERY  article, forum, help site, etc.,that i could find & even tried to get help over the phone from a pc tech here locally, and nothing has been able to fix my issues. I have done so many system restores from so many different restore points, installed updates, uninstalled updates, tried to install new drivers, rolled back drivers, started in safe mode to do diagnostics checks, entered BIOS & checked EVERY setting, reset all settings to default, checked error logs, etc., etc., etc...I have even completely disassembled my entire laptop & checked all wiring, fuses, etc., made sure everything was working, etc., So, finally yesterday I decided that it's gotta be something to do with a tech issue-probably with my vista home premium OS that came pre-installed at purchase, so i thought it best to just go ahead & go into the back up & restore & back up all my files onto an external hd using the file transfer wizard option inside the restore center, and then proceed into restoring the pc to it's factory, or "out of box", state. And i assumed i covered my bases by saving the back up-just in case...ohhh no-not the case at all!
    It did't even occur tp me to that i might need an actual BOOT disk for vista after the fact. I just assumed that "out of box" meant just how it originally came-WITH vista pre-installed & ready to set up-like it did the day i bought it! i also was under the assumption that, isnce it never asked for a product key or anyting to activate vista then, that it wouldn't need one now either. But anyway, so this is where i'm at now-after i did the factory restore & turned it back on, it said to wait while windows finishes installing-but it never finished, then finally about an hour later, it said that windows was unexpectedly interrupted during installation & did not complete, and for me to restart pc to try install again. But after i did that, it was the same thing over & over. it NEVER installs!
    So then i decided to go ahead & "restore windows using back up image" that i created on my external hd prior to  the factory restore, thinking that  it would just kinda pu **bleep** all back, but thats not working either. it recognizes the drive, and takes me to a menu where i can actually even view all the files on the drive and even tho they are known by my pc to be back up files, it still won't associate them to being back up files to MY PC!! I even got desperate enough to find a site that claimed to offer a free vista boot disk in the form of an iso image that i burned onto cd & tried to boot from as well. That actually took me to an install screen for windows & all the way to where it asks for product key-which DID NOT come locatedon any sticker anywhere on my laptop, and because they DID NOT include any OS utility, install, or boot disks with the purchase of my laptop, i don't know what the product key is OR where else i might be able to find that info, and i WILL NOT pay for ANOTHER ONE,  just because they were too lazy or cheap to send  the disks with the pc! so i tried to skip this step till later, but when i skip it, it shows anpther error saying that install was terminated & could not finish install & if i wish to continue, for me to restart my pc & re-attempt install..WHAT IS GOING NE WITH THIS AND WHAT CAN I POSSIBLY DO TO JUST BE ABLE TO USE MY LAPTOP AGAIN?? HELP ME PLEASE SOMEONE!!

    Hi,
    I do not really understand... Did you made a backup before restore to factory settings? And did you copy all backup files to an external device? If not, the data is gone!
    Why? Restoryng to factory does not mean a reinstallation. It means to fill the whole harddisk with an image of the first (factory) installation. All other data will be destroyd! Other partitions are deleted and normally you find only one big partition - the whole hdd.
    If you have a complete backup on external drive and it is corrupted during restore, try to open the files manually. Maybe you can restore some single files.
    Good luck
    kind regards
    Stefan

  • Firmware will not load on Zen To

    I just purchased a Zen Touch and I tried to upgrade the firmware to the 2...0 latest version. (You would think that Creative would ship new units with latest firmware, but they do not. Pretty lame). So?I downloaded the?latest firmware?to my desktop and ran it. When asked, I plugged in my Zen via the USB cable (in the rear of the computer/not front) and the firmware started to run. It then stalled and the Zen went into recovery mode and got stuck. I waited 0 minutes and nothing happened. I contacted Creative Service (did you know that they are located in Singapore?) and I explained the problem. We then spent an hour on the phone and did the following: () confirmed in device manager that the Zen is being recognized which it is, (2) reloaded the drivers, (3) uninstalled and reinstalled the CD software, (4) went into the registry and edited the USB settings as explained in the knowledge base to allow all users, (5) rebooted the computer, (6) redownloaded both firmware versions from the Creative download site, (7) tried re-running the firmware update. Even though the Zen is recognized in the device manager and it is shown on the desktop tray, firmware will not load and device will not sync and firmware update on desktop says that the device is not connected. Creative support then told me that the Zen was defecti've and to return it--which I did. I got a new one and the exact same problem occured. What is also interesting is that while the Zen Touch is a 40 gig player, but when I open it up (yes, I can even view the Zen dri've on the desktop and reformat it, which I did), the dri've reads as only having 20 megs instead of 40 gigs--which makes no sense to me.
    Creative clearly has a serious bug issue to resolve. My computer is running on a P4 with Windows XP, with SP2. If anyone can solve this one, Creative should send them a free player and hire them. Please reply only if you are super knoweldgeable as I have wasted too much time and I am ready to pack this unit up and buy an I-Pod at this point.

  • Hp zv5242qv laptop with windows vista will not run on battery but will run on power adapter

    Hello, I have a HP zv5242qv pavilion zv5000 series laptop with windows vista installed. I can run it on the power adapter with and without the battery installed but it will not power up on just the battery, the battery is new and fully charged. When I plug in the power adapter the battery light on the front of the laptop comes o then goes off, anyone have any ideas about my problem ?

    Hello,
    The situation you describe looks like the unit has problems with the battery, but you say the battery is new and is fully charged.
    Then, the issue might be with the system board and maybe there isn't anyhting you can do.
    You can try to remove the battery and the ac adapter, and keep the power button pressed for 30 seconds, then connect the ac adapter, turn on the unit, then when in windows put the battery in place, see how it is detected, the power level and restart the PC. See if the unit restarts with the battery in place, if yes, then shutdown the unit. 
    See what happens and report back.
    Thanks,
    I work for HP! Please remember to provide and if this helped click ON

  • Windows Vista will not load on Equium P300 16T ?

    Help!
    My daughter's P300 won't load windows after a CF flash memory card (containing just JPEG Images) was inserted in a USB port and withdrawn during start up.
    I get a windows error recovery page that says a recent hardware or software change is stopping windows loading.
    Two options are given 1. Launch repair 2. Start windows normally. Neither will launch windows.
    I can get the 'safe mode' screen when I press F8 at start up. When I try to start up in safe mode it just hangs after 10 seconds or so.
    I can get to the BIOS screen by pressing F12 and set to default configuration. Vista will still not load.
    I have lost the restore discs that were made on day one, and there is data on the hard drive that has not been backed up! So I am hoping there is an easy fix to this.

    Finally sorted it!
    I could not get on with WIN PE so resigned myself to losing data and doing a HDD reinstalL from the partition but could not access the HDD recovery option, I was stuffed!
    I called Toshiba to ask if replacement recovery discs could be obtained? They can and at £30 with upto 30 days delivery. The nice man at Toshiba sugested that I do A power reset. (Take out the battery, disconect power supply and hold in power button for 15 seconds). He also suggested that if I could borrow a retail Vista instalation disc I could use the repair windows feature on it.
    A power reset enabled me to start up in safe mode. A vista disc could not fix my problem but confirmed that there were corrupt files preventing start up.
    In safe mode I was still unable to do a system restore, because of the corrupt files.
    Safe mode did allow me to access and back up my data and create new recovery discs! So I was able to do a clean install having backed up my data - Bingo.
    Thanks for all your help on this guys, I hope my comments on this post will help others.

  • Elements 5 on Vista will not open. Missing files

    I have installed Photoshop elements 5.0 and the updater 5.02. Elements will not open and indicates several missing files. This is a brand new Windows vista HP machine. the missing files are "FAST CORE ROUTINES MODULE" , 'MMX CORE ROUTINES MODULE" , and "MULTIPROCESSOR SUPPORT" .  Any suggestions?  I uninstalled once and followed the Updater 5.02 instructions to be certain that I installed in a folder "Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0'

    Thank you Paige, You put me on the right track. I also found another much older message at this link...
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/1487633#1487633
    I not only uninstalled, but followed the instructions for "deep cleaning" all remanents of Elements,  from folders, and even the registry. I had to change viewing files to viewing hidden files and all extensions, and deleted the Adobe Application Folder in Users\name   folder and  THAT along with your hint to install as Administrator did the trick.  The application folder deletion seemed to finalize the installation... I have not tested all components yet, but now at least I can begin testing!!!  Thank you for your response.

  • Trying to repair iTunes on Windows Vista will not allow to do so except to uninstall it

    Trying to repair iTunes on Windows Vista. Will not allow me to do it. I've followed the instruction to select the programme in control panel, the select 'repair', unfortunately, the only option available to me is 'uninstall.' Therefore, I tried to uninstall with a view to reinstalling the whole programme but it wouldn't let me do this either because the .msi file could not be found.
    Can anyone out there help??
    Regards

    Therefore, I tried to uninstall with a view to reinstalling the whole programme but it wouldn't let me do this either because the .msi file could not be found.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Ipod with Vista - Will not sync

    Hello!
    I am having trouble with my Ipod syncing with my computer. Before I got this new computer (with Vista) I didn't have a problem and now I don't know what is going on. Basically, when I plug the USB cable in and plug the Ipod to it the computer will not bring up Itunes to sync. Itunes is not recognizing that the Ipod is plugged in. When I plug the USB in, the computer tones, signaling that something has been plugged in. So the computer IS recognizing that something is attached...it's just that Itunes doesn't. When I open Itunes and go to File the option to Sync Ipod is not available.
    Any help???? TIA!!

    I was able to figure out this problem.
    That error message regarding access privileges has nothing to do with what the actual problem is. I've reported this to Apple Support and hopefully, they will change the error message to something more meaningful.
    In my case, I originally had a Dell laptop running Windows XP. It crashed, but I was able to salvage the hard drive. I bought this Sony with Windows Vista on it and recovered my iTunes Music folder and restored iTunes with all my music as it looked originally on the Dell running XP.
    Even though my playlist was setup correctly, the problem turned out to be that I had stored some of my files in the My Music folder on my Dell. The path to that in Windows XP is \Documents and Settings\User\My Music. In Vista, Documents and Settings has been changed to just Users.
    So, what this turned out to be was that it had nothing to do with write privileges on the iPod, it's that iTunes simply couldn't find some of the music listed in my Playlist.
    To resolve it, I deleted the entries in the Playlist that were pointing to Documents and Settings and added them again from the new music folder in Vista.
    Since doing this, I can now sync my iPod with no issues whatsoever.
    I hope this helps anyone else having this problem.

  • After installing iTunes 8.1 on a PC with Vista,,,, will not boot

    After installing iTunes 8.1 on a PC with Vista. The computer will not boot up. It Start to boot up and hang up and never completely boots up.

    I also have the Mcaffe security centre so on the face of it we have very similar situations and I had not problems.
    You asked what I meant about saving the installer on your PC.
    When you go to the iTunes download page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    And click on download, you should be offered the choice of running the installer or saving it. You need to click on save and then choose a folder on you PC where you want it saved. But I think you already did that.
    After the installer file - iTunessetup.exe - is save on your computer, you double click on it to run it.
    It's very odd that the installer fails at different stages. usually when the installation fails, it is at a specific stage and usually generates an error message.
    I am afraid I am mystified. Have you had any other problems with your PC which might suggest a general problem not specific to iTunes?
    The only other suggestion I have is to download a fresh copy of the installer - in case it got corrupted. You could also try using "run as administrator" to run the installer. It should be an option if you right click on the installer file.
    The other thing it might be worth trying is to install it from another account, but you would need to create another administrator account if you don't a;ready have one. Or if you have another account that is not an admin account, you can temporarily promote it from the control panel>>User accounts.

  • Vista will not recognize my iPod

    I have an iPod video and my Vista system will not recognize it. I downloaded and installed iTunes 7.5XX, but I still can not get it to recognize the iPod. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I think I had the same problem as you guys, Vista wouldn't recognize my ipod but it was seen in device manager as a mass storage device. What happen to me was vista ask me if I wanted to format my ipod so it would work with vista like a dummie I said yes and from that time on it was not seen in my computer and in itunes. I ended up putting it on a new computer, when I installed itunes I plug in my ipod and this time itunes seen it and told me it was corruped, I was able to backup the music and videos I had on it to the new computer then I did a restore on the ipod and now all work good.

  • Window Vista will not recognised my Iphone any fixes?

    Upon updating my Itune to 9.1.1 my Iphone will not be recognized any longer and a tool bar pop up message comes up. _*“USB device not compatible…”*_ I’ve removed Itune and reinstalled it and still not fixed. I have two Window Vista running computer and both does the same thing. Need help or is there any patch to fix this?

    Go to Apple's iTunes page and re-download iTunes. Once installed, the build number should be iTunes 9.1.1 (12), and the syncing bug should go away. This new build isn't being pushed out to people who downloaded iTunes 9.1.1 (11), so it won't show up in Software Update; you'll have to go get it manually.

  • Vista will not accept my Airport password

    I have installed Vista on a partition for 10.5.
    Vista works great except that it will not accept my password for my Airport wireless network.
    Vista sees the network, says it is available. I click to get on it, and it asks me for my Network password or phrase. I type it in, and Vista always gives me a message that what I typed in is wrong.
    But it is not wrong. I have checked it on the 10.5 side, and it is what it is, and my connection does work on the 10.5 side.
    So, how do I fix this?

    One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
    The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
    One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
    Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.
