Windows Vista Home Prem SP1, iTunes 76, after install, refuses to launch

I have just resinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium to a 1 yr old Acer 5610 laptop.
Installed Vista SP1.
Downloaded and installed latest (v7.6.something) iTunes and let it do the full, all apple media installation. It seemed OK, showed his music, let us reactivate the computer and loginto iTunes store.
But now, one day later, when he starts computer, it refuses to lauch when iTUnes is clicked. just acts as if nothing was happening.
So tried to uninstall iTUness and planned to do a reinstall, but now the uninstall has been running 30 minutes and seems to be doing nothing.
Any thoughts on what is going on here?
Should I force the uninstall by using a 3rd party Uninstaller tool?
Should I download iTunes + Quicktime separately as EXE and run the installer again (I have downloaded it (57MB) to my Mac and plan to take it over to the Vista laptop on Monday when i am there again).
Any other thoughts on why it worked once after the install and now has gone silent?
thanks!

Well that's weird that it quit working. Was that the first time the PC had been restarted since a lot of stuff got installed?
The uninstall shouldn't take more than a min or so.
Use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Tool:

Norton or other security software can cause that, there are several other reasons too...

Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

Question
better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
Details

As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
Any luck?

Windows Vista Home prem Sleep issues on macpro

Hi all i recently purchased a Macbook Pro 15" 2.5 processor and duel booted it with vista home prem,
(i use refit as my boot-up program)
recently after using the vista side more often i've discovered that if i leave the laptop on and its idle it will go into sleep or hibernation not sure which one(i use a LED mouse which stays on during the laptops 'sleep' state), however i cannot re-awake the laptop from this state i usually have to turn the laptop off then on again, when entering windows after i have done this it says its recovered from a serious error and would i like to start in safe mode etc..
i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and knows a way to solve it,
thanks all

It is possible that even the latest Apple BootCamp 2.1 drivers don't handle the latest MBP hardware.
Early on, hibernation was a problem for anyone on Vista, PCs as well as Macs.
I have to unplug my mouse and keyboard when it goes into hibernation. When you restart in that manner, do you do a chkdsk or have any errors crop up as a result? I know on OS X side that can leave the disk dirty and in need of repair.
PS: I thought you were talking about the desktop MacPro, not the MacBook Pro...

Windows Vista Home Premium- Restoring Itunes Library- Not Eonugh Space on C

I have 64 bit version of Vista Home Premium. Experiencing the following error when trying to restore music library. I have a 320 GB Hard Drive and a 250 GB external HD. After about 15 GB it states in the error-"Not enough space on C:/ library could not be saved. Anyone have any solutions?

Hi, that's not a problem I've spotted before. From what I can find out it seems ubd.exe is part of Windows and responsible for handling .dll files in some fashion. You could try the Microsoft support page Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files just to confirm that your system files are in order. More likely it is a problem with the Apple library being loaded. Unless you have thoroughly uninstalled all Apple components, deleted the recommended folders, then reinstalled it may be the case that you have an outdated file from the last build of iTunes that wasn't replaced, and that the error is generated by incompatible files trying to call each other.
If you didn't do a full tear down already my advice for doing so is in Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates

ITunes Version 7.0.2.16 and Windows Vista Home Premium

I am still using iTunes Version 7.0.2.16, and due to my failing computer, I am unable to upgrade to a newer iTunes version.
I am about to replace my old computer and the new computers all seem to come with Windows Vista Home Premium.
Do you know if Windows Vista Home Premium supports iTunes Version 7.0.2.16?
(My plan is to install this old version, copy my music directory across to the new computer, and then upgrade iTunes.)
Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes, you can install itunes 7.0.2.16 on Vista Home Premium.

Vista basic or vista home premium sp1 for macbook pro

Ok so I got windows home premium sp1 today as i didnt think the basic would work, apparently it will. I am not certain if the home premium would work though because it has sp1. do i need one without it? i have yet to open the box so i can always return it.
All i really want bootcamp(windows) for is to be able to install and play video games that mac's are not able to. So basic would be enough for me yes? Thank you for any help.
EDIT: I have yet to open the windows vista home premium sp1 yet as well incause the vista basic will work(i dont want to spend more then i have to in order to get bootcamp to work just for a video game)
Message was edited by: Guitarplayer546

So I go to the city today,from the mac dealer I bought my MBP from, they assured me the XP home edition version they have would work, so go race over there (45min later) and pick it up, store was pretty much closed soon as i left. when i actually take a closer look i see it doesn't have the service pack required for the XP versions. So tomorrow gotta go back to return it I hate my life.
I know this is more less my fault for not looking further, but you'd think the dealer would know the requirements for the new operating systems and how bootcamp works. dfngsdkj

Windows Vista Home + iTunes = no DVD drives

I am a long time iTunes user, and have been having an issue with iTunes for the last little while. When I install iTunes (I'm on Windows Vista 32 bit, by the way), after the required restart, my DVD drives' icons disappear (I have 2 of them). I can see the DVD drives in the Device Manager, and they say they cannot start. The only I think I've had these problems since about iTunes 7.0, but I don't burn CDs that often, so I've really not felt too bad about it, except that my wife would like to do so. I've done the registry change where you remove the upper and lower filters, which corrects the drive issue, but then presents the seemingly inevitable Registry issue dialog box, without the option to burn CDs. Here are the steps I've done thus far to try to get my computer and iTunes to play nicely:
1. Tried reenabling the UpperFilter for GearAspiWDM as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305422
2. Tried downloading new GEAR drivers from their website.
3. Tried uninstalling Quicktime, and then installing it separately.
4. Uninstalled my other music service software (SonicStage), and then reinstalling iTunes.
5. Completely uninstalled iTunes, and then reinstalled it (a couple of iTunes versions ago).
6. Tried uninstalling the non-functioning DVD drives in the device manager, and then scanning for hardware changes. When the UpperFilter was still present, this part failed. It passed after I removed the UpperFilter registry entry.
Please help!

Cannot open iTunes 8 with Windows Vista Home Premium

Hopefully someone here can help me with my problem. I have a new Ipod Touch that needs itunes 8 to work. I have a new HP PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. The problem I'm having is: itunes & quicktime will download successfully onto my computer, but after download will not open. I receive the error message "itunes has stopped working...A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I have tried to open them from desktop & from programs ...will not work. I was using itunes 7 with no problems, but after upgrade to the new version (itunes 8) I started having this problem. Here are a few of the things I have tried so far with help from just about every tech support I could find: uninstall & reinstall itunes (tried this several times..didn't help, but itunes installs successfully each time)...try installing quicktime & itunes separately (didn't help)..disable firewall & virus protection (didn't help)...turn off Data Execution Prevention (DEP) (didn't help)...tried saving software to discs & installing itunes that way (didn't help)...I have updated all of my software including windows vista...I've run virus checks...& pretty much run checks on anything else I could find. I occasionally get the same error message when I try to open Rhapsody, but not every time. I'm thinking of using my backup discs & restoring my computer to factory settings. To do that would be a last resort, but I am getting pretty close to desperate. Does anyone think restoring it would help? If anyone has any ideas for me to try I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much.

You need to to check to see if your Quicktime works normally. Itunes will not work if QUicktime doesn't.
If Quicktime doesn't work, describe what happens with any error message in full.
Go to your control panel and try to start QUicktime preferences. In XP you need to be in classic view to see it, I am not sure about Vista.
Give the full text of any error message.
Have you installed any of the following:
ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar
If so uninstall them, they are bad news for Quicktime.
Report back with your results.
If Quicktime is OK have you seen the Apple troubleshooting article for launch failure, I guess you have probably done quite a bit of it anyway, but is worth going through it systematically:
