Will iTunes ruin my other burning applications

I just purchased a 5G 30 Gig video iPod, but have not yet installed any software. Currently, I use Anapod to load songs on to my 2G iPod. I use CDx to rip CDs, and I burn them (and DVDs) with Nero--all of which work fine. I'd like to keep Nero and CDx for my burning needs.
I've read about a lot of the aggro with the latest version of iTunes for Windows, and I'm worried that it will cause problems with those other programs. I want to use iTunes to download from the Store and to load my new iPod. (I'll be ditching Anapod). So my question is: does iTunes interfer with other burning programs? And is there a way to disable iTunes burning capabilities?
My system is a self-built PC with W2K (SP4) and an Asus P4B533 motherboard. Perhaps this question has been asked before, but any insight I can get before I actually start loading iTunes would be appreciated.

usually, any conflicts that folks might get are related to device filter entries. so if you ever run into anything like that, this resource should be helpful:

  • I cannot access my iTunes library through other mac applications like iPhoto.

    Since I've updated to 10.5 I cannot access to my iTunes library through other Mac applications like for instance iPhoto.
    The application says that my itunes library is idle.
    Also my screen saver used to show my albums covers yet now it doesn't show anything but n error message attestng that my library doesn't contain any album cover.
    Can someone give me a clue since my library contains a cover for each song and is synchronizes with iTunes match?
    Thank you for ANY help!

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Will itunes 7.3.1 burn CD's in original CD-RW drive?

    I'm still using my old CD-RW drive. Just updated computer to OS 10.3.9. Trying to update as much as might be needed.
    Was still using my original itunes that came with my G4.
    Will this 7.3.1 version of itunes burn CDs in my drive? One of the download pages said it required a combo/super drive.
    Also, thinking about installing a super drive. Any recommendations or words of warning?
    Thanks
    G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi nameless,-
    Start by clicking on the Apple in the upper left corner/About this Mac/ and click the More info...
    From There use the Sherlock/AppleCare channel, and type in all you want to know about your model G4. Like "remove optical drive" from "your model"
    Sherlock AppleCare channel has always helped me when I'm in a pinch.
    Don't post your Serial #, we don't need that.
    Simple steps to take when replacing an optical drive is:
    Have adequate lighting and a flashlight.
    1. Get out all the tools you'll need, such as an assortment of small phillips head screw drivers. Preferably magnetized heads. Set out the replacement drive and look over everything and set it out.
    2. Set up your Mac on a nice clean hard surface.
    3. Get comfortable and open up your Mac.
    4. Always touch the power supply's metal or the metal frame case to discharge any static electricity, try to stay still while working on your Mac. Do not work on a carpeted area.
    5. Get familiar with any print outs of instruction from the Apple knowledge base.
    6. keep the screws removed organized, or better write down their location.
    7. Be patient and take your time when removing and installing the cables and everything.
    It's pretty easy. You won't need to pay someone to replace the drive. A diagram will be included with the drive to familiarize you.
    Regards,
    Michael

  • If all the songs in my playlist I want to burn are mp3 format, will iTunes automatically create an mp3 CD? I want the CD to be in a format that most CD players can play.

    I didn't know I would have to add more. What I need to know is in the title. If all the tracks in a playlist are mp3 encoded, will iTunes assume that I want it to burn an mp3 disk? What I really want is a CD that plays in most CD players everywhere, not mp3. I tried to look up the type of file that is on most commercially made CDs, and I get .cda. But then I get an argument that .cda is a file that marks the gap length and track info, and does not contain the music info at all. Computers are just too **** complex for an old geezer like me. With computers, nothing is what it really seems.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Ken

    Don't concern yourself with the type of file on an audio CD - they use their own special format.
    When you create a playlist and choose 'Burn playlist to disk' you will get this pane:
    Choose 'Audio CD' - that's all you have to do.

  • Will iTunes or QuickTime Player let you burn an mp4 file onto an audio CD?

    I want to burn some MP4 videos (i.e., the audio portion only)  onto audio CDs; I guess that would mean converting to .aiff files, right?
    Can this be done in either iTunes 10.6.1 or QuickTime Player 10.0? I'm running Mac OS 10.6.8 on a Mac mini, if that makes any difference.
    Or do I have to find some third party software to do the conversion and then burn the CDs?
    Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

    I want to burn some MP4 videos (i.e., the audio portion only)  onto audio CDs; I guess that would mean converting to .aiff files, right?
    Depends on how you plan to play them back. AIFF can be played on almost any commercial audio CD player. MP3 files can be played on most current CD players. Apple Lossless or AAC could be used if playback is through your computer. The choice is really yours.
    Can this be done in either iTunes 10.6.1 or QuickTime Player 10.0? I'm running Mac OS 10.6.8 on a Mac mini, if that makes any difference.
    Yes, but the work flow may be different depending on which software and audio compression format you use. E.G., QT 7 Pro could extract the MP4's AAC audio track directly to an new file without conversion if AAC is your target format. As previously mentioned, QT X could be use to recompress the MP4 to an audio only AAC file. The free MPEG Streamclip or QT 7 Pro apps could be used to convert the MP4's AAC directly AIFF files. Converted or extracted AAC files could be added to your iTunes library where iTunes could create and burn a "Playlist" of such files to CD using AAC, AIFF, Apple Lossless, MP3, or WAV compression formats dependin on your playback requirements. (Unfortunately, iTunes will not directly extract and reprocess/burn the AAC audio directly from MP4 files already in its library.

  • Will iTunes Backup; backup Application content?

    I have an application that stores passwords. Will my passwords save in the application be backed-up to my computer through the iTunes backup?
    Other examples:
    -Your lists created in a toDo list program
    -What level you on in a game
    -Notes in the note application
    -etc, etc

    When restoring an iPhone with iTunes, the iPhone is completely erased and the current firmware version available is re-installed.
    After the firmware is re-installed, you are prompted to restore the iPhone from the most recent backup (which is the default selection), or as a new iPhone or not from the iPhone's backup.
    This must be followed by a sync.

  • •Ever since my fiancee had his Ipod touch malfunction my computer will not allow me to reinstall Itunes or any other kind of installer? I was on the web for ten hours trying to figure out what I can do!

    I am not sure what it is that happened?
    But, I think it was his Ipod that messed the computer installer up!
    I can download Itunes, but I am not able to run it?
    I also cannot run any other kind of programs on my computer since this had happened!
    I finally got his Ipod to show the usb and the Itunes ogo but now can't re-install the Itunes to restore his Ipod!
    If anybody has any ideas I will keep trying!
    Thank you for reading!

    when syncing with itunes, got error message saying had error and now ipad2 will not do anything other than showing the USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes on screen.  have done the reset and restart, but still get same thing.  Ipad does not show up in itunes even though cable plugged in.  Have shut down and restarted Windows 7 computer.

    I had done all of that to no avail.  I did call Apple Tech Support and after he suggested I try a USB port in the rear of the Win 7 computer, things starting working again.  I had tried switching the USB port at the front of the machine but that had not helped.  Everything is good to go again.  thanks for  your reply

    I am having sporadic issues after new hard drive install and recovery using Time Machine. The same sluggish response, start up screen pixelating...If I reinstall Lion will it wipe out other applications? My HD was formatted and partitioned correctly, I have a late 2009 iMac.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • After updating to mavericks I have to constantly enter my apple ID for mail, iBooks, iTunes and many other applications that used to be part of my keychain. How can I get my log-in to work again?

    After updating to mavericks I have to constantly enter my apple ID for mail, iBooks, iTunes and many other applications that used to be part of my keychain. How can I get my apple ID log-in to work again?

    Several times I've re-entered my passwords under Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud and it won't save since I've installed Mavericks.  Also, the iCloud icon in the left column in Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud is greyed out but allows me to click on it to set-up.  When I click on iCloud the password is filled out but the "Enable this account" check-box is not checked.  I check it, and all seems correct.  The icon is no longer grey, the password is correct, the "activate this account" check-box is checked.  Then, when I launch mail, notes etc. I'm still prompted to re-enter my apple ID.  The log-in loop continues.  For years my keychain has worked perfectly.  What has changed in Mavericks?

  • HT4914 My music is stored on an external hard drive. All music that I buy, whether from itunes or some other provider, automatically gets loaded onto my external drive. There is some music on my computer drive as well. Will match work in this circumstance

    My music is stored on an external hard drive. All music that I buy, whether from itunes or some other provider, automatically gets loaded onto my external drive. There is some music on my computer drive as well. Will match work in this circumstance?

    I followed all the instructions for consolidating my music into one folder on my external hard drive. (I'm struggling with this because my ext HD was renamed when I synched my iPod shuffle last night. The "E:" drive has now become the "F:" drive and all my songs have those dreaded exclamation points next to them. Exploring my computer, I found "My music" folders in two place on my C: drive and one place on my external hard drive... and the song list in each place is different.
    Argh.
    So... following the directions in the article reference here, I attempted to consolidate all of my songs into one folder on my external hard drive.
    But.. I checked the song list when the "consolidation" was complete... and MANY songs are missing. They're still on the C: drive, but don't appear to have been copied to the new folder on the ext HD.
    I would appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks so much!
    Edit: I tried to reassign the ext. HD a permanent letter, but my Control panel does not appear to offer the option of Administrative tools. Is there an easy way to get to this, as this seems to be the root of the problem?
    Thanks.

    I have iOS 10.7.5 and if i update to Mountain lion 10.8.2 will i lose all my old applications i've purchased and other software i've downloaded? and what is time machine ?

    No. You will not lose any of the applications and data will be safe.
    But make sure that you have working backup. This is very important.
    Time Machine is the built-in backup software/application.
    Best.
