Windows Service Manager 32-Bit Has Stopped Responding/iPod not showing up in iTunes

Hello,
I've scoured this forum for answers but I cannot find any result that works. I have an iPod classic that I've connected to my Gateway running Windows Vista for over four years without issue. When I was using iTunes 9 the other day, I plugged my iPod into my computer, but it only connected to My Computer and didn't connect to iTunes and update my iPod accordingly. So, the iPod is charging and the iPod is showing the "Connected, Eject before disconnecting" screen, but it isn't adding new music (which kind of defeats the purpose of buying new music). I thought it was because I was using 9, so I downloaded iTunes 10, but the issue still popped up.
This hasn't pop up today after I installed 10, but back when I was using iTunes 9 the following error came up on my computer: "Windows Service Manager 32-bit Has Stopped Working." Now, no error messages pop up, even though the problem persists.
I've tried suggestions in this post as well as in this post. Also, with the fix being recommended in those threads to change the code in Notepad by clicking "edit" under the System tab under My Computer? There's one problem - there is no edit button on my options. I've included a screen grab to prove this.
I don't know if the relative age of the discussions makes any difference - maybe a new fix has com up and i'm just not finding it? Plus, since this issue began with iTunes 9, I can't help but feel like getting rid of iTunes 10 is going to help the issue, either.
This is incredibly frustrating, not being able to add new music to my iPod, so if anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, as previously recommended ones aren't useful.
Screen grab of iPod connecting to My Computer, but not iTunes:
Screen grab of the lack of an "Edit" button in the place to edit codes as recommended in previous topics:

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Windows Connection Manager Profile Installer Has Stopped Working

Hi all, I thank all who can help me with this problem beforehand and will do so after.
I am an IT technician at a university in South Africa. I am trying to install a custom made VPN program that works perfectly on every other machine but not this one laptop.
It is a Lenovo G580 laptop running Windows 7. Every time I try to install the VPN i get the error message that Microsoft Connection Manager Profile Installer has stopped working.
I have made sure all the updates are installed.
I have done disk check.
I have done System File Check.
I have done Windows Repair.
I have coppied the cmstp.exe and ole32.dll files from one windows to the problem computer.
I have taken permission of both the above mentioned files.
I have done anti-virus scans and anti-malware scans.
I have tested that other applications(not VPN's) install correctly.
I have tested that the VPN installed correctly on other computers and pulled a new one to make sure the application was not corrupted.
Error details:

Hi,
Generally speaking, this error can be caused by one or several of the below factors:
a. The dll file is deleted accidentally from your system
b. The dll file is damaged due to virus or spyware infection
c. improper software removal
d. The dll file was overwritten by an incompatible version.
e. Outdated hardware drivers
f. Too many invalid/obsolete registry entries.
g. Related registry entries is corrupted.
I would like to suggest you try the following steps to check the results:
a. Do a system restore to undo recent system changes. If the error is just caused by the file getting corrupted or damaged, performing a system restore would help you to get a fresh copy back and also fix the related error well at the same time.
b. Update the drivers for hardware devices and install any available Windows updates.
c. Test in a new user account. If it works, please refer to Fix a corrupted user profile.
Fix a corrupted user profile:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
If the individual troubleshooting advice above is unsuccessful, performing a startup repair or repair installation should restore all Windows DLL files to their working versions.
Hope it helps.

ITunes has stopped responding .. CD Import. ITunes 9

itunes has stopped working.
Every time i place a music cd in the dvd rom and it starts to load
itunes stops working.
i remove the cd and launch itunes again and it works fine
as soon as i insert a cd it stops again, and its any cd
this has only happened since itunes 9
anyone eles having the same problem

Same problem. itunes will open fine, and library will show. However, as soon as I insert a CD to transfer to itunes, I also get "itunes has stopped working" and it shuts down. I restored to a date previous to 9 download. itunes would not work--something about quicktime. So I installed the version 8.2 for vista, however, then it would not recognize the library since it was now in a later version. So I downloaded 9, and, of course, it's back to the orginal problem. Afraid to even try syncing my ipod. I previously had opened another user account on the same pc. I installed itunes on it, and everything works fine other than the fact my library is on the other user account. Any thoughts??

IPod not showing up in iTunes on Windows XP

I know this appears to be covered in the help files elsewhere, but the ultimate suggestion of restoring through the iPod updater still fails as the software doesn't find my ipod.
Running iTunes v5.0.0.35
Trying to run iPod Updater 2005-09-06
I have two mini iPods and one is working correctly so I can be confident that the cables and PC, etc. are okay.
Second iPod is working in so far as playing music is concerned, and will charge on the mains lead, and shows up as a drive in Explorer when plugged in to the USB2 cable nd can be stopped using the "Safely Remove Hardware" function.
Resetting the iPod using select/menu seems to perform the reset (I get the apple logo) but iTunes software still doesn't see the iPod when connected.
I would be grateful for any suggestions on how I can fix/reset the iPod so that it talks to iTunes again.
If I use the original CD to try to format the iPod, it takes some time to initialise, but finally reports that the unit requires formatting. Having clicked on the format button, the software has been reporting that it is "Waiting for iPod" for the last 15+ minutes.
Many thanks in advance
RC

I've decided that a problem I have with iTunes continually asking me to authorize music I have downloaded coincides with plugging the 'faulty' iPod mini in.
Not sure which is chicken and which is egg, but as my other iPod mini continues to behave I still thing it's a faulty iPod rather than software/pc/cable issue.
Just wondered whether posting this sheds any more light on it for anyone. As things stand, I have requested a warranty repair through the website.

IPod not showing up in iTunes nor in Windows

Hi there,
I've tried so many of what some call 'solutions', but nothing worked.
I NEED HELP!
My problem: my iPod charges, an icon to disconnect it appears in the taskbar, but it's not in My Computer, and not in iTunes.
I've tried the 'disk management' window. My iPod appears but I can't format it (a window shows up telling me that it's impossible).
It seems like a driver is missing. It was the same in iTunes 6.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE??? (I'm about to kill myself)
Thanks a lot,
L.

Windows Format iPod Not showing up in iTunes or in finder.

Hello,
I have a 5th Gen iPod that is formatted for Windows and I can not get it to work with my Macs. I am using version 7.3.2 of iTunes with an intel iMac and a Macbook. The iPod works fine and charges fine with a wall charger. It will not charge when plugged into the Mac via USB. It will not mount when forced into disk mode either.
Steps I have tried so far:
Reset iPod by toggling hold on and off an d holding down menu + select until Apple logo comes on screen.
Reinstalled iTunes.
Restarted both Macs.
Used different USB port and cable (My other 5th Gen iPod mounts and syncs fine with my cables and ports)
Forced iPod into Disc Mode
I can't restore using either iTunes or the iPod updater app because the iPod cannot be seen by the Mac.
I'm at a loss and no forum posts or knowledgebase articles have helped out.
Please help! Thanks in advance!

*It will not charge when plugged into the Mac via USB.*
+That's indicative of a defective cable and/or USB port. However, that conclusion is contradicted by the following.+
*Used different USB port and cable (My other 5th Gen iPod mounts and syncs fine with my cables and ports).*
Now, I'm concluding that there is something defective in the iPod's connector or in the iPod itself. If I'm correct, System Profiler (About this Mac, More Infor...) also will not see it. I also expect that the Windoze machine won't see it. If you still have access to the Windoze machine, check that out.

I have a podcast that has information that will not show up in iTunes.

I have checked all the settings and they seem correct. All my other shows are setup and working fine.
Here is a link to a photo of the other shows. https://www.evernote.com/shard/s2/sh/cacf8e97-71e1-4c20-a9a6-7b8db824562d/1c4ef
The Show, ITSM Weekly Top of the World shows "unknown" and all other informaiton is blank.
I've checked the feed validator and everything seems good.
http://itsmweekly.squarespace.com/itsm-weekly-podcast-top-of-the/rss.xml
It's odd that I can't figure out how to update this show.

The only thing which seems wrong is the 'unknown' - everything else seems to be OK and the Store is up to date with your episodes, though the latest was a month ago.
The 'itunes:author' tag is correctly present and contains three names (I wouldn't expect that to be a problem): it should therefore show where 'unknown' now shows. Did you change this tag after May 8th? If so it may be that it will update next time you upload an episode.

I have tried to transfer files from my windows media player to my ipod but it saysthe device has stopped responding or stopped working.this is the first time ive connected nmy ipod to my new pc.any ideas?

I have tried to transfer music from my windows 7 media player to my ipod.This is the first time i have tried to use my ipod on my new computer .In the media player it doesnt give me the option to add to itunes library it just give me the option to send to my ipod and when i do this it says that the device has stopped responding or isnt working.Any ideas? coz i aint got the foggiest where i am going wrong.My ipod keeps telling me to update the software,but then will i lose the music thats already on my ipod?

You should import the music (that is listed in Windows Media Player) into your iTunes Library - on your computer - to add it to your existing iTunes Library. I take it you have moved (or copied) your music from the old computer to the new computer, haven't you?
Then Sync your iPod to that Library.
iPods will not respond to Windows Media Player, they're designed to connect to iTunes.

Lightroom has stopped responding. That's what I get when I try to import images from my D7100 into the library. I'm (foolishly, no doubt,) using windows 8.1. Can anyone help?

It is lightroom 5.7. I will have to try to run it again to get the exact
message, but essentially, it is "the program has stopped responding".
thanks!

Firefox 4 Add-on manager causes application to stop responding

I just upgraded from the latest updated of version of Firefox v3.0 to 4.0. When I try and use the new Add-on Manager, all of Firefox stops responding. Essentially nothing works. I click on Tools - Add-ons, the tab opens, I download a selected add-on, and then nothing happens, There is no indication that the add-on has installed. If I mouse click anywhere, including the menu items, minimize the window, or the close application buttons, nothing happens, The only way to close Firefox is to launch Task Manager and use "end task" function. Task Manager then tells me Firefox is not responding and do I want to send an error report to Microsoft. I copied the 4 dump related files in the Microsoft report before sending it. If any, or all, would be useful I will send them to a responsible party. If I start Firefox but do not try and do anything with add-ons, it seems to function correctly. Also any other running programs do not seem to be affected.
I am running a desktop with XP SP3 with all updates downloaded and installed as they are issued.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to check if there is a compatibility update available.
