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".

I bought a mac companion for my desktop mac running os x but received the following error message when I tried to install the quikprotect software download: "power pc no longer supported." I did not read that anywhere when investigating. What gives?

PPC, also known as PowerPC has not existed on Macs since the beginning of 2006. Apple made a bridge software and included it with Mac OSes until 10.6.8 known as Rosetta that would allow you to run software written for the PowerPC Macs. 10.7 and later can't run that bridge software. You have one of several options:
Install 10.6 retail on a USB Flash drive, and run that application while booted from there.
Find an update designed for 10.7 or later of the software.
Find a combination of Virtualbox or Paralllels that can legally run a version of 10.6 side by side with your 10.7 software.
Run Windows on your Mac with Virtualbox or use CrossOver that requires no Windows to run a Windows version of your application.
Your Mac is an iMac Intel. I will ask a moderator redirect your thread to the 10.7 forum, and no action is needed on your part.

Why are you using a usb ethernet adaptor? Just plug the modem into the usb port.

"Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Without the actual crash logs nobody can say, but chances are that your graphics hardware is to blame, so update the driver...

Just recently I am getting the following error message when trying to access web sites. I get a pop up window stating "Exc in ev handl: TypeError: c.location is null" then I have to click ok. It is an issue with some plug-in?

Just recently I am getting the following error message when trying to access web sites. I am using Firefox browser version 10.0.2. I get a pop up window stating "Exc in ev handl: TypeError: c.location is null" as the web site page is being displayed in browser winder. Then I have to click ok. It doesn't matter what web link/site I go to it happens. It is an issue with some plug-in?

I have advised McAfee's product team of the problem and this thread, and they're looking into it now.

Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive. "Could not complete backup to media share. The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features." What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

I am receiving the following error message when deleting email messages

I am a new Apple Mac user and aside from converting me from the other useless PC operating system, I am still learning my way around MAC OS X Mavericks.
I am receiving the following error message when trying to delete an email message.
The Message "XXX XXXXXX XXXX XXXX by XXXXX XXXXXXX" could not be moved to the mailbox 'Trash" - veyron007(outlook)"
The IMAP command "UID COPY" (to deleted) failed for the mailbox "INBOX" with server error : Error 9.
Please try again later.
The error message above is exactly as it appears in the error box.
Does anybody know why I am receiving this message?
Does anybody know the correct procudure for loading email accounts with (OUTLOOK, OPTUSNET, etc)
Do I use IMAP or POP3 for OUTLOOK?
I look forward to receiving a reply.
Thanks

Having SSL turned on is supposed to be a lot safer (some require it), I wouldn't want a connection without.
SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer and using it means your connection to the server is encrypted.
Especially when using wifi your connection is prone to eavesdropping, I do not use wifi.
You can set a mail program like OSX's Mail.app to keep the POP mail on the server, but IMAP is my weapon of choice.
IMAP and POP3 are protocols. Mail.app (or Mail) is a client.
For the difference between POP and IMAP, look here:

Im getting the following error message when Time Machine is trying to back up: backup disc image/volumes/data/my computer.sprasebundle is already in use. What does this mean? How do i correct? Thanks!

90% of the time, all you need to do is power off the Time Capsule, wait a few minutes, and power it back up.
If no luck, then go to the more sophisticated fixes in the link above.

I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

Yes, I had found a similar solution also. I'm running XP Pro, SP3. I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair. Then run the 10.5 exe.
While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess. Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes. Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing. I haven't begun to work on that.

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