Warning message when launching iTunes

I upgraded to iTunes8 and on launching iTunes, the following error message appears "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing. This can happen as a result of other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes." I then reinstalled the "Repair" from the downloaded file (iTunes8Setup), but the warning message still appears after rebooting my computer and launching iTunes . I then removed iTunes from my computer and reinstalled iTunes from this download (iTunes8Setup). I rebooted my computer and launched iTunes, same result. Any ideas on how I can fix this warning message. Please note this warning message did not appear when launching my previous version of iTunes.

I do not burn any CD's so don't have one to insert into the drive to test the diagnostics. No I am not running 64 bit version of XP.
See below results from rinning the diagnostics.

  • What action can I take to eliminate the following error message when launching iTunes?

    Since the iTunes upgrade last week I persistently get the following message when launching iTunes. "You are signed in with a different Apple ID than previously used with Podcasts. Do you want to sync these podcast subscriptions and stations with ------------ "
    I only have one Apple ID of which I am aware. I changed the password just before the update, after receiving an email advising access from a device that I did not recognise.
    The error message goes on to refer to a Windows XP, desktop system as the previous platform for this synchronisation. I have been relying upon the old MacBook Pro since March, when iTunes on the Desktop crashed. I gave up trying reinstallation etc. on the desktop as nothing appeared to resolve the problem. I have "uninstalled" the application in Windows but lack the necessary skills to remove all traces. I still get error messages about iTunes when opening Windows XP but there is no evidence of application elements on the Hard Drive / System that I am able to recognise.
    iTunes appears to lack a process for updating to recognise that the current platform should be the default.

    Try signing out of iTunes, then back in again. This worked for me and a few others. To sign out, in the iTunes menu bar, click "Store" > "Sign Out".

  • Get error message when launching iTunes

    Hi I have a problem with iTunes it's probaly my own fault but i hope someone in here know what i possibnly could do. I succesfully installed iTunes and used it for about two hours, then the electricity shut down in the house while iTunes was running. When i tried to start my PC again and launched iTunes i got an error message from windows, askin me if I wanted to send them a report of the problem.
    i tried to uninstall iTunes and install it again, didnt work. I tried to clean my computer as good as icould clean registry run scan disc and so on, and then install it again no help didnt work.
    Do you know what i possibly could do?

    let's keep pushing our luck with the Windows troubleshooting techniques ... so far this is proceeding just like a standard PC troubleshoot ...
    okay, that's the result that suggests that you've got a problem with the itunes preferences files in your usual XP User Account. there's a different set of preference files in each XP user account, which is why we can get this "crash in one account, launch in another" behavior.
    if you've got damaged preference files, we can usually get past this by rebuilding the preference files in the usual account.
    quit itunes. log out of the new account and back into the usual account.
    find and delete the following two files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    (“<username>” here will be the name of the account you’re having difficulties with.)
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) these will be rebuilt the next time you try to launch itunes in your usual user account.
    (the itunes setup assistant will run, you'll be asked to agree to the license again, and so forth.)
    after the setup assistant has finished, does itunes finish launching without the crash?

  • Error Message when launching iTunes

    I can't launch iTunes anymore - yesterday it worked fine. I get an error message <<iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration>>. I have de-installed and then reinstalled iTunes on my PC but it makes no difference. Any advice? Thanks!

    Perhaps this Apple KnowledgeBase article will help:
    iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes had detected an audio configuration problem
    Good luck.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

  • I get a message upon launching iTunes that the registry setting for burning are missing.

    I get a message upon launching iTunes that the registry setting for burning CDs and DVDs are missing. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. I didn't touch the registry. iTnes is fine except, of course, I cannot burn songs to CD.

    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.)

    Can I uninstall existing iTunes without losing my media library?  and then install fresh to fix this problem?

  • In iphoto how to get the gold you delete a photo warning message when you check the box not ask

    in iphoto how to get the gold you delete a photo warning message when you check the box not ask

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7 or later: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Error message when updating Itunes...can not open Itunes program

    I am recieving error message when updating Itunes for my computer.  The error message reads "MSVCR80.dll is missing and the other error message reads Error 7  (Windows error 126)"  I can not open my Itunes.  I have reloaded the Itunes onto my computer but still have the same error messages.  Please help.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    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!

  • Uninstalled Old PS Versions - Now Get "One Or More File. . .etc" Error Message When Launching PS CC

    I just unistalled PS C3 through 6 on my computer leaving only PS CC for use going forward.  Having done this I now get this error message when launching PS CC:  "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop."  The thing is PS CC still appears to be working okay once that error message is cleared.  How can I get rid of that error message?  I can't reinstall using the CC Updater because it still sees PS CC on the system thus it won't install another copy.  I'd just as soon not uninstall it and I'm not sure that would fix the issue anyway.
    Any ideas?

    Hi jpolster,
    You can uninstall PS CC through the Control Panel in windows/Utilities in MAC & the reinstall PS CC.
    Thanks
