I have edited the registery, downloaded the Gear drivers, uninstalled and installed itunes, and the error still appears.
What else can I do. Cannot connect any of our iphones or ipods to itunes because of this error.

I have edited the registery,
We'd better have a closer look at the keys to see what's going on.
Can you post a screenshot of the contents of the key you've been editing, please? Include all of the regedit screen, including the left-hand column. Save the screenshot to an image file, and insert the image file in a reply by clicking the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window.

Thank you.

The registry settings used by theiTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs are missing

I recently installed a programme to convert audio from a cassette player to digital and I found that my CD/DVD drive was missing. I deleted the offending programme and followed a "fix" by deleting the upper and lower filters as specified in the fix. My CD/DVD drive reappeared but now when I open iTunes I get the message “the registry settings used by theiTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs are missing” even though I am able to import tracks from a CD to iTunes. I haven't tried burning a CD yet but then I hardly ever do. I don't appear to have the problem but the message insists that I do!
I have removed iTunes and all associated files and folders from my computer and reinstalled iTunes three times but the message still appears every time I open iTunes. I use Vista. Can you help?
Many thanks.

The registry settings used by iTunes drivers for importing or burnning.....

I have installed iTunes 7.3.1. When I start iTunes, I get an error window titled "iTunes Setup Assistant" The text in the window is "The reggistry setings used by itunes drivers for importing or burning CD's and DVD's are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall itunes." I then click on the ok button and itunes loads just fine but without the burn option. I have uninstalled Roxio Creator 8, Yahoo Picassa2 and any other softeware that might have a disc burning option. I then uninstalled itunes, rebooted and then reinstalled itunes. I still get the same message. What else can I do to get iTunes to be able to imnport and burn discs?xz

First try rebooting and repairing.
Reboot the PC (very important) and then do a repair install of iTunes. In Add/Remove Programs, select iTUnes, click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy there, check for a device filter conflict in registry, as per the following document:

"The registry setting used by itunes for burning CDs are missing"

Whenever I start up Itunes... I get this error message.
"The registry settings used by the Itunes drivers for importing & burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall Itunes".
Problem is... when I reinstall itunes nothing changes.
I've got Roxio cd-burning software installed on my computer. Is there a conflict with this software?
I can't burn songs from Itunes on to a CD. I haven't tried importing a CD or DVD but I'm guessing that won't work either.
Any advice??

TS3299 Registry settings used by Itunes drivers for buring CDs are missing

So incredibly stuck on this and I have already removed and reinstalled Itunes about 3 times. I kept getting the message that "registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDS are missing. I followed all the instruction and even went to the Registry Editor and right clicked UpperFilters and was shocked to see that GEARAspiWDM" was already listed there--so the warning I keep getting that this driver is missing is wrong. Now what? Please help. I do not know how to work around this. Thank you

For example, this is what I'm seeing when I look at my key:

I received the message 'The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.' I have re-installed iTunes and still receive this message. Any suggestions?

The Registry Settings Used by the itunes drivers for importing and Burning CD's are missing

I get the following error message in the latest version of iTunes on start-up
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 installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes.
I tried troubleshooting from a guide on another apple support page and it worked but stopped the DVD Drive working and I have tried reinstalling iTunes but that failed and I don't know what to do and how to get rid of this error on start-up of iTunes

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Registry Settings for Itunes drivers for Importing and burning CDs and DVDs

I have had this issue over and over again and re installed and uninstalled many times. Recently I upgraded to Windows 7 and for a very short time had no issues. I could burn CDS and back up and did not receive the error message on loading ITunes Setup Assistant "Warning The registry settings used by Itunes drivers for importing and burning cd's and dvd's are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other cd burning software. Pleae re install Itunes." Unfortunatley I then installed DVD Fab and this issued started again. I tried to restore my pc and uninstalled DVD fab and have no other burn software on my pc and still cant get working. I still get the same error when trying to burn a playlist "no disc recording found". Please advise what I need to do in lamen's terms. Much appreciated.

have you followed instructions also on question number 11 and 12? because u told me that you have printed and i guess it only showed the words. ok. leave itunes installed and follow the >Registry instructions< also when you get to number 11 and 12 instructions, drop them down and follow them. and also follow the rest till it tells you to restart.

When connecting to Itunes, it shows the following error: registry settings used by itunes drivers for importing and burning cds are missing. I have installed the gear drivers, uninstalled and installed itunes still showing same error. Anything else?
