Windows 7.1 will not launch in Vista

Folk, I cannot get Windows 7.1 to launch in Vista. It says I have a problem in my audio configuration and from looking at the Quicktime control panel, I do not see any stereo option under the channels. However, no other program using sound is having this problem. I was also able to use 7.0.2. i was wondering if others have had this problem or if I could get the setup files for 7.0.2 so I could go back a step.
Thanks,
John.

It says I have a problem in my audio configuration and from looking at the Quicktime control panel, I do not see any stereo option under the channels.
that message is usually caused by a problem with your QuickTime.
perhaps try the following document. (it works with most cases of this in XP and 2000, so fingers crossed it'll help on your Vista.)

ITunes 8.0.2 will not launch in Vista SP1

I have a new laptop with a clean Vista SP1 install. Tried installing iTunes 8.0.2, but after I double-click on the iTunes icon to launch it, it won't start. itunes.exe is in the task manager running, but the program will not run. The first time it shows me the user agreement, I click accept, but after that, nothing.
I did a search and found the kb article suggesting I delete the configuration files. When I went to the folder, there were no configuration files to delete. I tried a different ID, run as Administrator, and nothing. Quicktime installs and launches fine. I did a malware/virus check to be on the safe side, and that came back clean. Any suggestions?

Thanks, that was helpful. When I restarted just Quicktime, it launched, but I did not get anything on the screen, just the blank player. That led me to believe it was an internet connection problem. And when I said "clean install", I misstated that . It was clean until I installed some of my stuff, like my work VPN and ZoneAlarm. Turning off ZoneAlarm did the trick. I also re-ran the installation exes as administrator, not sure if that helped or not. I am importing my music library now....

Firefox 3.6.11 will not launch *using vista* & tried ALL "solutions" listed here

The firefox update automatically loaded and I have been unable to launch Firefox ever since. Have uninstalled and reinstalled. System will not let me change profile as illustrated on this site. Have made adjustments to my Norton 360 as illustrated on this system. I don't want to use IE but I've got no choice now.
TFB Mozilla doesn't care about losing a loyal user!!!

Was Firefox running when you canceled the SP3 installation?
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You can also try other options like "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" and "Reset toolbars and controls". 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") 
If a new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox

QT will not launch on Vista

When I click my QT short cut I see a flash and the QT thumbnail in my tool bar (as if its running). The restore and maximize from the thumbnail is grayed out. The only way I can get QT to run is to find a saved QT file and open it.
I am running the pro version and have just installed the latest update on my system ...with no change in performance.
WHat gives?

When I click my QT short cut I see a flash and the QT thumbnail in my tool bar (as if its running). The restore and maximize from the thumbnail is grayed out.
Similar sorts of problems can be caused by a dodgy QuickTime display preference. If that's what is afoot here, we can probably get around it by rebuilding the QuickTime preferences files.
First, quit QuickTime if you have it open.
Next, you'll need to make sure you are set up to view hidden files and folders in XP.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
5. Click OK.
Next, you'll remove the QuickTime preference folder (and contained files).
6. In My Computer, open Local Disk: C or whichever drive your documents are stored on.
7. Open the Documents and Settings folder.
8. Open the folder with the name of the XP user account in which QuickTime isn't launching properly.
9. Open the Local Settings folder.
10. Open the Application Data folder.
11. Open the Apple Computer folder.
12. Drag the QuickTime folder out onto the Desktop.
Now you'll rebuild the preference folder and file.
13. Launch QuickTime. Does it open up properly this time? (Eventually?)

Photoshop Elements 10 will not launch any longer in VISTA

I have had PSE 10 for a year or 2 and never had a problem. It was working on Friday, had a Java Update, then on Saturday PSE will not launch in Vista. We have recovered the computer to a previous date and that did not work. We uninstalled PSE and reinstalled and still will not launch. Need to know what the fix would be to correct this.
Any help out there?
Thanks, Dean

What isn't working? The welcome screen, the editor, the organizer? Can you launch either of the latter if you go into the program files and try directly from their .exe files?

I use to be able to click on a link in a website to watch a video and it would launch windows media player. I have installed the plugin but it still will not launch

Windows Media player will not launch from a video link within a website. it worked until I installed FF4. I did install the plug in but still nothing it just goes to a black then blank page when you try to launch the video.
Ideas?

At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply. For 10.5/10.6 Network, highlight Interface>Advanced button>DNS tab>little + icon.
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.
These Servers have been patched to guard against DNS poisoning, and are faster/more reliable than most ISP's DNS Servers.
The Interface that connects to the Internet, needs to be drug to the top of System Preferences>Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations and checked ON.
10.5.x/10.6.x instructions...
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.

Itunes will not launch in Windows8

itunes installs in Windows 8 but will not launch. Clicking the icon opens a blank page but then does not respond.

Doublechecking. Have you worked through the following troubleshooting document?
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues

Suddenly, Firefox will not launch. When I try with the Task Manager up, it never appears on the list of applications.

On a desktop PC running Windows XE, FF will not launch. Has been working very well since we installed FF two weeks ago and made it our default browser. IE launches normally allowing me to post this question. On my laptop, on the same wireless connection, FF works fine. I have rebooted several times. Everything seems normal except for FF. I have run PC Doctor and have fixed all problems that came up. McAfee finds no problems.

Update: After a very long time, perhaps 15 minutes or more, the FF screen comes up blank with the "loading..." message on the first tab. Also, because I tried several times to launch FF, more such screens came up with the same result. My home page never loads. If I stop page loading and try another web site I get the same result.

Sqlplus will not launch

I' currently taking oracle DB in college and had the client working fine from my home computer, everything was setup fine and it worked. Now the windows SqlPLusW.exe will not launch at all. I can connect fine from the command line, but I would like to use the advanced features of the GUI to make my life a little easier.
thanks for any info that might help

Ok, open a command prompt window and navigate to the directory where you installed Oracle software. navigate into the BIN folder and do a dir sqlplus*.exe to see what do you get (is it similar to the output below).
Once you see both the files, try running it from within the command prompt window by typing SQLPLUSW.EXE (does that work?).
02/20/2003 11:02a             459,024 sqlplus.exe

Itunes will not launch on Windows Vista no error code

Itunes will not launch on my computer. I have windows vista. I have uninstalled and downloaded itunes repeatedly. I have also tried all of the troubleshooting tips available on the apple support site. But none of them worked. Quicktimes works fine. It is just itunes. I even opened up task manager to check the processes and itunes appears for about a second in the processes tab then just disappears. I have no idea what to do i have an iphone 3gs and havent updated it for a few months now and cannot sync my iphone without itunes. I Have kaspersky internet protection but i doubt thats the problem because itunes was working fine until i updated it.PLEASE HELPPPPPP!

Presumably the configuration fails to complete, so every time you start iTunes it has another go.
As iTunes works normally when you plug in your iPod, you should be able to work round this by creating a new iTunes short cut.
Go to Program Files\iTunes and right click on iTunes.exe. Select: Send to>>Desktop(create shortcut). If you are lucky you will be able to open iTunes using this short cut.
However this work around does not fix the underlying problem that WIndows fails to complete configuring iTunes.

Indesign CS4 will not launch in Windows Vista

Indesign CS4 will not launch but all other CS4 programs will in Windows Vista, has been worked perfectly up until mid february, I have spent two weeks dealing with Adobe support, and finally I ran “Windows Installer Clean Up” and restarted as requested on phone call to adobe today, then ran “WinCS4Cleanupscript” which inform me that it was clean (or words to that effect) and restarted. Did new install of CS4, at registration I noticed that the Reg Form was pre filled and with my preferences which was a bit strange. After all that Indesign still does not launch but is running. Please can anyone help.

This is the earlier thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/2621367#2621367
I think the onus is on Rapport to sort its software to prevent it interfering with other applications, and there is a post in that thread that indicates that Rapport is both aware of the problem and is working to overcome it.
I would hope that Adobe itself would have picked up this problem by at least monitoring this forum, but other than adding it to the knowledgebase for its technical support, which I don't expect is an overnight thing to do, I can't see what else it would be expected to do.
Perhaps if anyone from Adobe is monitoring this problem they could chime in here and let us know what the position is. I strongly suspect that Trusteer may have been the reason I couldn't get InDesign to run under Windows 7, and so I rolled the whole shooting match back to XP. I am planning to reinstall W7 with the knowledge that I may have to toggle Trusteer on and off to run InDesign, but it would be helpful to have some assurance from either party that a fix is on its way.
In the previous thread the Rapport response implied there was reference to the problem on its FAQ page. If there is I can't find it.

HT1926 I downloaded the latest version of iTunes; however, it now will not launch, citing Windows error 127, any suggestions?

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, now it will not launch. I get a Windows Error 127 message. Any suggestions?

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (Although the procedure is for Vista and 7 and you've got XP, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

TS1717 My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.
