Why was iCloud.msi added to iTunes 11.1.4 ?

The windows installer for iTunes 11.1.4 contains iCloud.msi.
The previous versions did not include this.
The included version of iCloud.msi works only in Windows-Vista,
not in Windows-XP, not in Windows-7.
Apple does offer an iCloud software for Windows 7 for download,
but it is not required to use iTunes.
Why is iCloud included in iTunes?
Why is it a version that does not work in Windows 7?

Maro,
I'm running VISTA on my PC. None of the suggestions solved the problem. I uninstalled iTunes removing all suggested files from another post and reinstalled iTunes 11.1.3 and removed the iTunes Ibarra from my iPhone Remote. I restarted the computer, iPhone & router. I added the iTunes library to my iPhone remote. I didn't get an icon on the menu bar of the iTunes on the PC but a dialog came up asking for the code which was on my phone. I typed in the code and the library showed up on my iPhone Remote. I selected it and got an error message that it couldn't connect. This is extremely weird and frustrating. What should I do now?

  • All new podcasts blank - There was a problem adding "" to iTunes.

    All new podcast episodes have a blank name, but the description is there. Clicking the exclamation point next to it yields - There was a problem adding "" to itunes.
    This is not just my old subscriptions but new ones as well. The episode actually downloads completely but does not get added to my library.
    Anybody have a suggestion how to resolve this?

    After days of no solution, as soon as I post it decides to resolve this by itself.

    Have you subscribed to it ? If not, and nobody else has access to your account or devices/computers and did it, then contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • Why are Iclouds songs in my Itunes Library?

    I started to noticed that there are songs in my library that I did not purchase.  When I go to view info the storage says Icloud.  These are classic music that appeared in my Library out of now where and I've not recieved any bill for them nor do they show up in my recent purchased tab.  When I delete them, it ask are you sure you want to delete this song from Icloud?  Where is this pulling from? Where do I go to view or find these so called songs that I never purchased.  I'm curious that maybe somebody has stolen my user name or something.
    Thanks.

    It might be prudent to change your iTunes password and security questions.
    You can create a smart playlist with all your undownloaded iCloud items like this:
    This should make it easier to check for suspect items. You can turn on the column Purchased Date to show when items were purchased. Perhaps you can spot a pattern.

  • Why was my Podcast rejected by Itunes?

    This is the email I got from Itunes two days after submitting my Switchfoot Podcast.
    iTunes Music Store Welcome
    Dear Podcast Owner
    The following podcast has not been included in the iTunes podcast directory.
    Name: Unofficial Switchfoot Podcast
    Feed URL: http://aqhyagrl.libsyn.com/rss
    Submissions may not be included in the directory for a variety of reasons. For more information, please see the podcast technical specification at http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/techspecs.html.
    Sincerely,
    The iTunes Music Store Team
    I don't understand why they wouldn't take it. It's clean and everything. This is the link I gave them to my RSS feed: http://aqhyagrl.libsyn.com/rss ... I tried it on the Advanced menu, "Subscribe To Podcast" and it worked perfectly.

    Thanks, I heard back from Itunes... they told me to change the <title> and <link>, so I did but it still says I'm submitting the same feed. I told them this and they wrote me back and said they would get back with me on why it won't go through. Why is it so difficult to get a podcast up?!

  • Why videos are not adding to itune

    iam not able to add video mp4 files to itune.but mp3 are adding

    From what source did these videos come? There are compressors that use the .mp4 filename extension but that are not industry-standard MPEG-4, so it's quite possible that these videos are in fact not a format that iTunes can play and would need to be converted. If you can tell us where these videos originated, someone may be able to confirm, or offer suggestions.
    Regards.

  • I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why?

    I used scripting brigde to add a movie that has size bigger than 5GB, exactly after two minutes iTunes return a failed, but the processing of the file is actually added to iTunes Library successfully. The copying take more than 5 minutes to complete. Why the iTunes Scripting Brigde returned failed when it is actually success? It occurred exactly 2 minutes after submit the request to Scripting Brigde. Is this 2 minutes related to the Apple Event time out? if it does, how do I get around this problem? thx

    I can tell you that this is some of the absolutely worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I found out from a store employee that when they are really busy with calls, they have third party companies taking overflow calls. One of those companies is Xerox. What can a Xerox call center rep possibly be able to authorize on a Verizon account?  I'm Sure there is a ton of misinformation out there due to this. They don't note the accounts properly or so everyone can see them. I have been transferred before and have asked if they work for Verizon or a third party also and was refused an answer so, apparently they aren't required to disclose that information. I spent a long time in the store on my last visit and it's not just customers that get the runaround. It happens to the store employees as well and it's beyond frustrating.

  • I received an Iphone 5 as a gift two days ago. The first thing I did was set up ICloud for photos. Itunes would not allow me to add songs to my new phone without restoring it, yet when I did this, it deleted all photos. And I cannot find them anywhere.

    I received an Iphone 5 as a gift two days ago. The first thing I did was set up ICloud for photos. Itunes would not allow me to add songs to my new phone without restoring it, yet when I did this, it deleted all 129 photos of my graduation and friends from the past two days. And I cannot find them anywhere, photo stream, ICloud, nothing. Where can I get back my memories?

    Were the photos taken by your new iPhone?  If so, did you not import them off your phone to your computer (as you would any other digital camera) before the restore?  If not, restoring wiped the data off the phone and your pictures are gone.
    Sounds like a good time to (re)read the User Guide.

    For the last few weeks, the iTunes store has been displayed with empty graphic rectangles (with a blue box containing a white question mark centered in the rectangles), bits of text, and some buttons. The page extends quite a ways, including what I assume would be all the links to all the music...
    If all you are trying to do is buy music, you can easily buy MP3s at any online music download store (e.g. amazon.com) and add them to your iTunes library.

  • HT2623 Why was I forced to move to iCloud, when MobileMe has not been removed?

    Why was I prompted to move to iCloud when MobileMe is still functioning and asking me to subscribe to the site? Am I the only one who is confused?
    Etela

    MobileMe isn't still functioning - it's completely closed. You should go to System Preferences>MobileMe>iDisk and stop iDisk syncing if it is running; go to the sync pane and stop any syncing, then go to the Account pane and sign out, otherwise you will get these error messages.
    If you have not migrated your MobileMe account to iCloud it is now too late to do so, and the entire contents of the account have been deleted, emails and iDisk included.
    Your signature says you have 10.6.2 - is this correct? You cannot access iCloud on Snow Leopard - Lion 10.7.2 is the minimum requirement.
