Windows XP Administrator rights with Itunes
Help please... is it possible to use Itunes in Windows XP without being an administrator? My daughter and I both have Ipods and have different logon names with XP, I currently have to give her Administrator rights to update her Ipod and this is quite dangerous as she knows little about pc's and likes to experiment!

itunes 7 gave me the same problem on my windows xp machine. before i upgraded to itunes 7, my ipod is recognized by itunes 6 when i dock it.
itunes 7 cannot see my ipod. Windows XP recognize my ipod when i pulg it in so I know my Ipod was not broken.
I went to apple store for some help and they are NO HELP. they only support Mac based Ipods. And suggested I purchase the phone support... YOU DONT NEED TO SPEND THAT MONEY if you paid for an IPOD.. it shoudl be working and if they released a new upgrade on softwares, it should be working on any machine they claim they support.
I tried puggin in my Ipod on an apple based machine with Itunes 7 and it worked.
I gave up Itunes 7 on my windows xp machine and re-installed the old Itunes 6. And it works FINE.

Whenever I connect my iPhone 4s to my Windows 8.1 pc with iTunes 10.6.3.25, the iTunes freezes.
Whenever I connect my iPhone 4s to my Windows 8.1 pc with iTunes 10.6.3.25, the iTunes freezes and the only way to proceed is to kill the task under task manager. I have uninstalled iTunes following the recommended order and reinstalled numerous times but still freezes when I connect my iPhone. It works fine when I connect my phone to another pc (Windows 7). What else can I try?
Whenever I update iTunes it gives me the following error:
The application was unable to start correctly (0cx0000142). Click Ok to close the application.
The file in error is DifXInst64.exe.
Thanks for any more help available. -
iTunes crashes when doing a power search. I get a Microsoft Visual C Runtime Library Error message: Program C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe R6025. Pure virtual functional call. If I select ok, Windows 7 pops up with iTunes has stopped working and then it shuts iTunes down. Anyone else every have this issue. Any ideas on a fix?
Thanks,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 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 just Synced My iPhone 6 which had close to 2000 photos to a new computer (windows PC) and synced with iTunes.Now all my previous photos have been deleted which were there on my phone. Please suggest a way to recover those Photos . Thanks
P.S -I have not taken any backup of those photos. So please suggest any software or any other method.If those photos were part of the camera roll, they were part of the backup as well and you can restore from the latest backup you made on the old computer. After that transfer the photos to the new PC, follow this article: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Then sync again to the new one, which will erase the phone again.
You can also try to copy the backup folder from the old computer to the new one and see if the old backups get recognized, check this article to find the location on your PC:
Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
If the photos were not taken with the phone, your data is gone, photos you sync from iTunes to the phone are not included in the backup. -
Sharing administrator rights with a contact in a g...
I've set up a popular group chat used by lots of contacts at work. When I am on vacation, my boss wants to be able to add or delete people from this group chat. But I'm not sure how to share with him the rights to do this. How do you share group chat administrative rights with another contact?
Yes please - I'm having the same issue. How do I give another member administration rights?

My iPhone 4 is not recognized by Windows 7 but syncs with iTunes.
Driver fails to load. Device manager considers my iPhone a MTP USB.
I have deleted and re-installed iTunes with no resolution.
I have read several strings regarding Autoplay. Nothing seems to work.See this tip: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. If you didn't use all of these steps to remove and reinstall iTunes you should do it this way. Note that the installation requires Administrator privileges to remove and install.
Also, if you are using a USB hub for the iPhone connection, try a USB port directly on the computer. -

Itunes crashes when importing Music File or Folder ever since i updated it yesterday
You can try downloading 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and unpack the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file into its components then try installing them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe or iCloud.msi). You may get a more useful error message as to which component has problems.

Problems with itunes sound via bluetooth in windows 8
itunes installed in computer windows 8.1 stopped working the audio via bluetooth, only itunes, the Bluetooth speakers work in the other programs and applications, music, movies, internet, even the regular windows sounds, it works, with itunes no sound, only sometimes, strange noise when you change tracks
I had that problem too. Maybe it works when you change your Bitrate in Itunes. My Bluetooth speakers run at 48 Khz and after the Itunes update, Itunes changed his settings to 44.1 kHz (before the update it was also 48kHz). I hope i could help you. Sorry for bad english i'm from Germany

IPod classic issues with iTunes 9 just may be disk problems in ipod
I have done extensive testing for several days now on this iTunes 9 issue with iPod Classics. I used 3 different computers, 1 Macbook Pro, Windows 7 and XP with iTunes 8. I had 2 - ipod classic 80GB and 2 - ipod 5th Generation 30GB units people gave me to look at.
It would take too much typing to describe all the restores, syncs, formats, copies I did over the past few days.
Bottom line: Using PC utilities I began to believe the iPod hard drives had bad sectors. I trusted the disk testing because I got different results from different ipods. The problems I experienced and what I have read here are consistent with what you would expect from disk problems and S.M.A.R.T. technology on the drives.
If bad sectors on a drive are dealt with by S.M.A.R.T. I would expect delays in accessing those sectors to occur.. resulting in delays to restore, delays to sync, delays to even skip songs on the ipod itself.
What may be the case is switching to iTunes 9, discovers when it trys to use the bad sectors. Maybe iTunes 9 is more timing temperamental. I have iPods that pass all disk tests that work fine with iTunes 9 on mac and PC. The other 2 ipods reporting bad sectors on a disk test, can restore, but syncing 3000+ songs is nearly impossible. Sync delays were consistent with where I would expect bad sectors to exist in the process. Delays I noticed just copying a folder to the ipod in disk mode were consistent with the delays that occur syncing in iTunes.It is a possibility...
I will state though that in my opinion the main problem is that itunes 9 is far less fault tolerant than prior versions and is far more likely to preemptively send an ipod into recovery mode when running into a problem when a ipod is plugged in.
I'd had a couple of incidents in prior versions of itunes when it flashed an alert message that it was having trouble accessing the ipod. Usually unplugging and reconnecting the ipod resolved the issue. Unfortunately this system of handling the issue does not work at all with itunes 9. What happens is that the next time you plug in the ipod it is preemptively sent into recovery mode.
I've had my ipod sent into recovery mode 7-8 times since I Installed Itunes 9. The last 5 of those in the last week. I've already done the reinstall itunes 9 from scratch and I still had to do a recovery of the ipod last night. Today I bought a new interface cable on the theory that my old cable might be defective. I've been able to plug it in tonight without itunes complaining about being unable to access the ipod -
IPod Classic will only sync with iTunes 11.0.2.26 in disk mode - can you help?
Hello, I am running Windows 8 64 bit with iTunes 11.0.2.26. This is a new PC and this is the first time I have tried to use it with my iPod. My iPod classic does not show up in Windows or in iTunes. The only way I have been able to sync anything is in disk mode. When syncing in disk mode the iPod appears in Windows and then disappears again when it ihas finished.
I have tried removing and reinstalling iTunes, but this has not sorted out the problem. The iPod device troubleshooter can not see the device. I have tried several different usb slots and two different sync cables. I can not see the iPod in device manager.
My iPod model is MB565 version 2.0.1 PC.
I would like to be able to sync my device as normal and to see if there are any updates available for my iPod classic, which as iTunes currently can't see the device, is not possible.
Can anyone help please?
Many thanks!Well I finally figured out the problem, not thanks to anyone from Apple for that matter. You would asume this problem has happened before and is still happening. The problem was I couldn't copy certain songs anymore from iTunes to my iPod Classic. When trying to copy certain songs I got an error.
If you have this problem it means your song file is corrupted. You can simply check this by trying to copy it from your hard drive to an external hard drive. Here you will also get an error message.
This means you need to replace all the corrupted files by a back up on your hard drive or download it again. I did this and now everything works fine.
Hope this will solve a lot of problems. -

okay not sure how this works so here i go again.
Okay i bought a dell pc with windows 8 (big mistake) i downloaded itunes and from my external hard drive, right clicked a movie file (in ipad format, because this worked in vista on my old laptop) and it will not go into itunes. And itunes keeps crashing. Is there a glitch with win 8 and itunes ? I never had this prob with vista. I would right click a file and say open with itunes and poof it goes in the library. Please help before i throw this thing out the window! OH newest itunes is what i have installed.Take a look at this MBP, a refurbished unit. Don't let the late 2011 release date put you off. For about $500 less than an equivalent 'new' one with similar specifications you get a quad core CPU and excellent graphics. As Steve359 mentioned, this can be upgraded if the need arises and has the same warranty as a 'new' one
I would not be surprised that these may actually be 'new' MBPs due to the length of time that they have been replaced by the current generation. I purchased a 17" model about 5 weeks ago, and a serial number check suggests that it is 9 weeks old.

that only makes it say its synced, when its not.
No, it does not. It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer. The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

my playlists wont show up on the phone.
Are they selected to sync? Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

ActiveSync requiring administrative rights to synchronize data with Windows Communication apps
We are currently testing W8.1 Update 1 in our corporate environment and have run into an issue when attempting to synchronize the corporate exchange accounts with the Windows Communication apps (Mail, Calendar, People). The first problem we encountered was
the requirement for each user to log into a Microsoft account just to access the Communication apps, this was handled through GPO by enabling the "Allow Microsoft accounts to be optional" policy. We could then launch the application, were prompted
for exchange server information, but then upon attempting to synchronize received an error message stating that "To sync this account, you first need to make your Windows user account an administrator." Obviously we have no desire to make all of
our users administrators, but for the purpose of testing we added the user account to the administrators group. The same error message appears! A quick search revealed that changing the UAC to a lower setting would resolve the problem, and sure enough we then
received a prompt to Enforce Policies and synchronization completed.
This can't possibly be the intention, that every Windows 8 user using ActiveSync is required to be an administrator and has to lower the UAC. We did determine that once synchronization has been configured, the administrative rights can be removed and UAC
can be increased once again, but this is a ridiculous option.
I would really appreciate an explaination of the reasoning if this is infact the intended setup, and if it is not, then what we are doing wrong. Thank you.Hi,
In following article, you will see that the admin permission is required to do so:

Also, Microsoft's recommendation and best practice is that if you are a domain administrator that you have 2 accounts. One for your everyday user which is restricted in the same way that every other user is and a second for your administration role.
