When I update my motherboard BIOs itunes thinks I have a new PC
I had a previous X79 EVGA SLI motherboard and everytime I updated the BIOs itunes thought I had a different computer. OK so I changed motherboards to a new X79 Dark and everytime I update the BIOs on this motherboard I get the same thing from the itunes store
As far as I recall I'm not aware of a BIOS update causing an authorization issue for me, but if it happens every time you update your BIOS then it is a reasonable conclusion that there might be a connection. I don't know how Apple authenticates a computer, but I assume it involves some kind of checksum derived by inspecting various components of the system. Perhaps a quirk of your BIOS/motherboard is involved.

Had to reload windows, now itunes thinks I have a new laptop.
Had to reload windows, now itunes thinks I have a new laptop.
I cannot now delete or load songs onto iphone unless I wipe them all and start again. Is there anything I can do to get round this problem?
Strange how I do not have this problem with my ipod nano!!
Many thanks all.+Strange how I do not have this problem with my ipod nano!!+
What folders did you back up and then restore after reinstalling Windows? The nano does not use a few folders that iPhones/iTouch/iPads use. But they both use the same library database file, iTunes Library.itl. That is the main file that tells itunes if a device has been synced to it. -
ITunes thinks I have a new iPod Touch
Hi
I got a new iPod Touch yesterday. I connected it to iTunes, synced it, updated to 2.0 firmware and charged it. Now, every time I connect it to iTunes, I get the welcome screen as though it's the first time I've plugged it in. When I click ok, it goes to the normal iPod screen and all my content is there and my sync preferences are ok, but it's a bit annoying having the welcome screen come up every time. I don't know if this is something to do with the update or not.
Has anyone else had this? Would restoring help?I had this problem and a restore did resolve it, but I had to restore as *a new ipod* as restoring from backup didn't work... which meant I had to restore all settings manually .
What I think caused this problem is probably interrupting the first sync. Try restoring it as a new iPod, and don't sync any music, videos etc. to it just yet (i.e. uncheck all the boxes on the startup page or you'll be waiting a very long time for all of your music to sync) then wait until the iPod has synced completely. Then disconnect and re-connect again to find (hopefully) that the problem has gone away. Then you can sync everything back on your iPod.
The above is just my two cents. I might be entirely wrong. -

Hi my itunes program crashes when i try to access the itunes store. Have tried to uninstall and reinstall to no avail.
Me too - running iTunes 10.5.3 on Windows 7. Will allow me to sign in to iTunes, download app updates and then if I either close iTunes or try to sign out of my iTunes account it all freezes. So frustrating, because my understanding is that iTunes saves the library file when exiting. So, everytime I update apps I lose all the downloads.

I recently had a new HDD installed in my PC. Obviously iTunes thinks this is a new PC now becuase of a fresh OS install. How can I de-authorize the PC iTunes recognizes so I can authorize PC with new HDD? I am at my 5 device limit. (I am running Windows Vista 64)
Try individually deauthorizing it even if iTunes thinks it isn't authorized. If that doesn't work, use the Deauthorize All function.

My iPod shuffle will not turn on, nor is it recognized by the computer to pull up iTunes. I have order new USB cords and nothing. Please help! Not sure of the generation of iPod shuffle, I think 3rd.
first: why did you download the iOS Beta 8? If you are a developer, go to the Apple Developers website and check what they can do for your case.
second: setup an appointment to a Genius Bar for service. -
Quicktime wont load because the installer thinks I have a newer level quicktime installed already.
quicktime wont load because the installer thinks I have a newer level quicktime installed already. Thus the newest level of iTunes and quicktime will not install, help... Thanks.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Restart the PC, and try another install. Does it go through properly this time? -

my computer crashed and lost my itunes, now i have a new computer...is there any way to get my music back from my account
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, not good, then you can redownload some purchases in some countries.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
Why did I loose my contacts when I updated by iphone with 5.0?
A number of reasons can be addressed. Did you sync your contacts over to the supported application on the computer, or into iCloud? If so, then just sync them back.
Not all contact information is includded in the backup. If you have iCloud turned on, then turn it off and back on again. See if that helps. -
hi, i had to re install my itunes library from a hard drive to my new laptop. Now itunes thinks i am trying to add new albums and saying there isnt enoug space. should i restore or is there a better way.
Have you tried exporting a 10 second section of the footage to see if the issue shows up once the seqeunce is actually exported from the timeline. I edit on CS5 with windows 7 pro at work quite often and have no issues so I assure you that isn't the issue. I also edit with AVCHD footage when at home and work quite freqeuntly as well so I'm positive that isn't the issue. It sounds like a GPU driver has been corrupted in the way it interacts with premiere pro. What type of GPU do you have? If it supports MPE's GPU acceleration have you tried turning it off and seeing if that makes any difference?
Anyways though try to export a 10 second test section of your timeline to see if when the clip is exported from premiere it will play normally in windows media player or vlc or w/e media player you want to use. If it exports fine then you can almost be positive it's a corrupted video card driver. If that's the case I'd re-install your GPU's driver and also check your gpu makers website to see if they have a updated driver avaiable. -
What is the security code when you are registering in the iTunes Store just after you have put in your credit card number?
It's the 3 or 4 digit code that is on the credit card, it's on the front of some cards, or others it's on the signature strip on the back : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3541

Upgraded to Windows 7, now iTunes thinks it's a new computer and is making me authorize it
My computer was recently upgraded to Windows 7, and iTunes now thinks it's a new computer and is forcing me to authorize it as a new one (which uses the number of computers I can authorize). Not only that, but it's making me do it more than once, so this same laptop has now been authorized 3 times. Any way to let iTunes know it's confused, and/or to put it back? Also since the upgrade it will only download sporadic episodes of TV seasons I have purchased, not sure if it's related....
Go into iTunes, select the iTunes store, and in the upper right hand corner of the browser, you'll see your account name. Clikc on that, and you'll access an area where you can edit the details about your account. One of the choices is to de-autorize all your computers. Do that. Then authorize the one you want.
