Windows 7 ITUNES HELP!
Hello everyone,
So here is my problem, when I start up Itunes, the Itunes store loads but when "Genius" is gathering information from my library the app quits. A window pops up and informs me that a "problem has occured with Itunes". it then goes on to tell me to "wait" while windows searches for a solution. then a second window pops up and informs me to "close program" itunes will only close if i hit the "close program" button. NO OTHER WAY... I've searched here a few times for answers. I've uninstalled every single apple download/product i have...
Bonjour, Apple app support, itunes, apple software update, safari, and apple mobile device support...
then i reinstalled itunes. and i still get the same problem. I've even tried to just disable the Bonjour service. That worked for a bit and then stopped working for me.
I really hope this is clear enough for someone to help me out... please and thank you in advanced
can anyone help me out please!!!!!!

Apps not available for download on newly-installed Windows iTunes--help!
Hi all,
I recently installed a fresh Windows OS in a new laptop. I consolidated my iTunes library and copied it over from my old one, but am now discovering that it doesn't include my apps.
When I open the appstore from my iPhone, it doesn't recognize the apps I used to have as paid for and charges me for them if I download them again.
I don't have any backups from the previous iTunes install or other data from my old laptop. I don't see the apps I paid for in my new iTunes installation, other than in the purchase history from my account.
Am I missing something? I don't see any "mobile applications" folder that was mentioned by a Mac user--is this not normally present in the Windows iTunes?
How can I download these again without paying for them?
Thanks--EbenSee this article about downloading those apps again for free: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
Although you click on "buy" you will not be charged, if you're using the same account as when you bought them for the first time.
Did you try to transfer your purchases? Disable autosync in itunes, connect your phone and right click on it in the device list and choose transfer purchases. -
Windows Itunes help (Quicktime 7.1.3)
Hey all! I have been using iTunes for a while and have collected a big collection over the years.... When i was asked to download the new version of iTunes (Not 7 i think but a newer one) i acepted as i usually so. The installation did what it needed to do and i rebooted. When i went to play iTunes it told me i had an older version of Quicktime and i needed to update. I went to the iTunes website to see what i could do, found Quicktime (standalone) and downloaded it. Of course, it still dosent work . Does anyone have any ideas or has gone through the same thing? Thanks so much for any help!
By the way I'm not that great with computer talk so if you guys can dum it down for me that would be great
Windows XPoh by the way i dont know if this goes without saying but i DO NOT want to lose ANY of my music lol.... thanks again

Lost all Playlists in MAC iTunes AFTER Upgrading Windows iTunes to v.10.7 (via Parallels) - HELP!
I HAVE iTUNES v 10.6x installed on my Macbook Pro - been using for quite awhile without issues. All Updates to iTunes have gone just fine. I also use Parallels Desktop with Windows XP Pro installed on it and within that Windows installation on this Mac, I have installed many software programs -- all okay for over 3 years - no real issues. I also have installed iTunes in the Windows, but never really used the Preferences of iTunes to use its Advanced settings to change the location of the Library to the same location of the Mac's iTunes -- the Library is on an external HD. The use of iTunes in Windows was never really used because I never had the right location of the Library set in Preferences.
About 5 days ago, while in Windows XP, I got an Apple Software Upgrade Notice that a new version of iTunes was available for download -- Version 10.7. Not thinking about it then, I told myself that when I finished upgrading inside Windows that I would exit Windows and while in Macbook Pro's OS X 10.5.8, i just knew there would be an Apple Software Update Notice to also update my Mac's iTunes to version 10.7 also. That's what I planned to do while still in Windows. While installing the update to version 10.7 within Windows, I thought I'd try to set the proper location for the Library file using iTunes' Preferences and Advance Tab. I finished the upgrade to 10.7, went into Preferences and Advanced Tab and did just that and set the correct location on the external harddisk then tried to play songs using my Windows XP's upgraded iTunes. IT WORKED JUST FINE.
I now exited from Windows and went back to straight Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8 and tried to check for this upgrade for iTunes from 10.6x to 10.7 by going to the Apple Website and downloaded this from there. When I then attempted to install the downloaded 10.7 (to replace/update my 10.6x) it would not install because my OS X 10.5.8 is not useable for the new 10.7. Okay, I'd just use my tried and true version 10.6x. WRONG!!!!!
When I attempted to open my iTunes on the Mac, it would open, but all my normal screen views were gone -- NO PLAYLISTS WHATSOEVER. The Music folder (the Library?) was fine but all songs had the infamous "!" MARK next to each and every song -- not playable. So, remembering the Library location setting in Preferences was the way to "reset" iTunes so the Library would be recognized and useable, I went into Preferences and reset the Library to the proper and same location as it always had been (and, where I had just previously set the Windows' iTunes to). Now the "!" marks were gone and each song in the Music Folder played just fine. BUT, NO PLAYLISTS WHATSOEVER. ALL MY ORGANIZATION EFFORTS FOR YEARS WAS GONE!!!
My thoughts are that the Windows iTunes upgrade to 10.7 changed some key iTunes files common to both operating systems on the Macbook Pro, Parallels Desktop, and Windows XP installation -- some Windows iTunes program files are kept and store in the same default location as the Mac's and on the internal hard drive of the Mac.
Because, in further researching this problem, I found that the "iTUNES LIBRARY.itl" file located on the Mac's hard drive had, in fact, been changed by the Windows iTunes upgrade to 10.7!!!!!! THOSE CHANGES "CORRUPTED" THIS FILE TO USE IN THE MAC iTUNES PROGRAM AND THE PLAYLISTS ARE GONE. I also use this software in this effort: PARALLELS DESKTOP VER 7.X, FULLY UPDATED WINDOWS XP PRO, FULLY UPDATE AS MUCH AS APPLE HAS PROVIDED TO MY OS X 10.5.8 (I CAN'T UPGRADE TO LION), AND OF COURSE iTUNES 10.6x.
THEREFORE, WHAT EXACTLY SHOULD/COULD I DO TO GET THE PLAYLISTS BACK INTO MY MAC OS X 10.5.8 iTUNES? I DON'T CARE TO USE THE WINDOWS iTUNES ANYMORE -- I'LL JUST STAY WITH MY MAC'S. PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOU.

I am trying to install itunes (64 bit) after downloading Windows 8.1 on my HP Laptop. I keep getting an error message Windows Error 2--"Apple App;ication Support is required to run itunes helper" Does anyone have any simple suggestions for a user with limited knowledge of Computers?
With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Itunes will not stay close ever since I updated to 10.5.3 version. I try to close program and it pops right back up! The only way to close is open tack manager and stop the itunes.exe and the itunes.help then it will stay close. I did a system restore back to the earlier version of itunes but problem presisted. I finally did the task manager again and downloaded the update to 10.5.3 and this seemed to resolve the problem for awhile but now it is back! Is anybody else experiencing this problem? and where you able to correct it? I'm running Windows 7 64 bit have never had a problem with anything till now. I ran scans of my machine no viruses.
Hi,
i have exactely the same problem.
After the update to v10.5.3 iTunes isn't shutting down anymore. I have this error on various Windows versions (XP SP3, Win7 x86, Win7 x64.
On my private Notebook v10.5.2.11 still works! I won't update iTunes there - not even for a test .

When starting Window XP on my laptop (which was connected, in the past, in a wi-fi network now no more available) appears immediatly this allert: "iTunes Helper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. ERROR 7."
Reistallation of older or up to date iTunes versions is impossible because: "Installation package iTunes.msi is located on a network resource not available" and because "It is impossible to remuove thew previous verson of iTunes. Impossible fto find the path."
Someone can help me ???
Thank,
GeraldTake a look at iTunes for Windows: "Error 7" message when opening iTunes. Perhaps your .NET Framework needs a repair.
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 the 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.

I have my iTunes library on my Windows 7 machine on an external hard drive. I purchased a new Macbook and would like to point my new machine at my iTunes library without losing anything and then deactivate iTunes on the Windows machine, help please
Sorry, but this does not seem to be an iPad question. I'd therefore suggest you ask in the iTunes for Mac forum.
Regards. -
I tried to authorize a new computer with Windows 8 for my iTunes acct. Per iTunes Help, there is an "authorize computer" prompt in the menu selection on iTunes store website. I can find no such listing. I have two computers linked to my account so I know that adding another one would be ok. Any suggestions?
Press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer.

Why are iTunes, View, Window, and Help menu items disabled?
I am frequently encountering an issue in iTunes 10.5 (141) where all the menu items in the iTunes, View, Window, and Help menus are disabled (greyed out). Why is this happening and can it be stopped?
I've seen this issue on different Mac OS X 10.7.2 machines. It seems to occur during playlist manipulation, where I'm making new playlists, adding items to them and editing them and the items. In the worst cases, I'm forced to quit and restart iTunes, although I have to quit by using the context menu option in the Dock as the Quit option is disabled in the application.
I'd appreciate any advice on workarounds for this that don't involve quitting and restarting iTunes.I'm also having the same issue. It was happening with 10.5.1 and now still with 10.5.2. I'm using a 2008 iMac running 10.6.8. I do not use iTunes Match. This seems to happen for no apparent reason i/o/w, I can't determine a pattern as to when it happens, but it occurs about once in every 10 times that iTunes is open and it seems to happen after it's been open for a while, but again, no particular pattern.
Sometimes, all the menu items are grayed out, and other times, 70% of the menu items are grayed out. I can still use the other functionality in iTunes, but must must Quit from the dock (it quits gracefully and no Force Quit is necessary). Relaunching restores eveything to normal for about a week.
I work with technical diagnostic issues and can usually pinpoint a problem, isolate an issue, or determine a pattern, but this one has me stumped. I thought 10.5.2 might fix it, but no. Maybe 10.5.3? -

Itunes helper was not installed correctly. Error 7 (windows error 14001) ?
Upgraded to ITUNES 10 and received following error - Itunes helper was not installed correctly. Error 7 (windows error 14001) - have tried uninstalling all APPLE products, restarting etc and installing ITUNES and QUICKTIME separately yaddah yaddah - NO SUCCESS. Losing patience ?
have tried uninstalling all APPLE products,
Doublechecking. Were you using the instructions from the following documents?
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
(Doublechecking, because an error 7 off ituneshelper normally indicates trouble with Apple Application Support. If something else is going on, it's pretty exotic.) -

hmmm. just to be on the safe side, please try searching for that file again, after having done this:
Open "My computer". go to the Tools menu. Select "folder options ..." click the "view" tab. Make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is checked and "Hide extensions for known file types" is unchecked, like so:

If the QT file still isn't showing up then, and the fix from that QTfW thread is still impossible to apply, then I think that a

uninstall then reinstall (with freshly downloaded itunes and ipod software) would be prudent. we want to try to try to get rid of any corrupted files (in either your itunes or quicktime set-ups).

It would also be prudent to back up your music prior to doing this. we aren't going to be doing anything that would normally affect them, but it's best not to tempt fate.
