How to get around a fake "cannot read itunes library.itl?

I have a Windows 7 laptop I want to back up the same on a Windows laptop 8.  Should I bring all the files on the Windows 7 laptop to Windows 8 laptop computer including my music/itunes and program/itunes files.  It has worked for years.  All of a sudden I get a message when you go to itunes on the laptop computer of Windows 8 that say 'cannot read itunes library.itl because it was created by a different version.'  This is different from the case referred to the support forum where people want to deliberately use an earlier version of itunes.  I want to use on the laptop Windows 7 and Windows 8 for the latest version of itune laptop.  To make sure that I have request for updates on two laptops from itunes and received responses that I already have the latest version installed on two laptops.  I can access itunes on the Windows 7 laptop, but not Windows Mobile, 8.  How to get around this indication false error on my laptop Windows 8?   I have the latest version and the itunes and all files have been created using the most recent version.

You have identical versions of iTunes on both machines?  The two latest updates of iTunes (12.3.3, 12.4.0) have included both updates of database for the latest library files can only be read by older versions.

How are you "Portage" your library data?  The error message may indicate a corrupt library file.

Also note that you should not try to replicate the folder iTunes program between computers - there is a high risk that the results will be unpredictable, especially since you're moving between two different editions of Windows.  There is really no need to do this - there is no data stored within the hierarchy of program files, who wanted to be replicated on several PC.

  • Cannot move iTunes library.itl on the desktop

    When I turned on my PC today, I found all my iTunes library has been deleted no aparent reason.

    Fortunately, I had saved a copy of the library and all the playlists in my hard drive, but in any case whenever I open iTunes, now it says that the library is corrupted, so I have to import the saved old library every time. My music is not lost, but it's annoying to do this, of course.

    So I read Apple's Support article on the recovery of the iTunes library, and I tried to follow the steps but when I come to step "Drag the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop", an error (I'll try to translate it because my computer is in Spanish, it may not be the exact words) :

    "This file cant't be moved due to an unexpected error." If you continue to receive this error, you can use the error code to get help for this problem.

    Error 0 x 80070570: the file or directory is corrupted or unreadable. »

    How may I order? I know the other option is to delete it, but I can't do either.

    It is without saying I have not iTunes open when I do this task, of course.
    Also, I looked at the error, but Microsoft did not have an appropriate response. He asked me if I tried to change the directory of the file, but I'm afraid I don't know how to do it.

    My operating system is Windows 7

    Any help is appreciated, thanks

    Restart your computer. See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library.

  • How to get around the problem of printing from the printer driver Adobe PDF for Notepad instead of a PDF Document?

    How to get around the problem of printing from the printer driver Adobe PDF for Notepad instead of a PDF Document? I tried the tool 'Repair Acrobat Installation' and other problems listed on the forums, but nothing worked. In the Notepad document is the following ' % [ProductName: distill] % X937B6DD4 not found, using the mail service.» X07BB154E not found, by using the messaging service. % [Page: 1] %% % [Page: 2] % % [Page: 3] % % [Page: 4] % % [Page: 5] % X4EEBB81F not found, by using the messaging service. %% [Error: invalidfont;] OffendingCommand: show; ErrorInfo: CharOffsets ss %% [Flushing: rest of work (end of file) will be ignored] %% %% [warning: PostScript error.] No PDF file produced. ] %%."

    The log file indicates that the Distiller cannot find fonts and besides, fonts with very weird names. (These names can often appear when printing from an application, WPF such as Internet Explorer 9, 10 or 11.)

    My best guess is that the problem is with the options set for the PostScript of PDF from Adobe printer driver instance. Exit the application you were initially impression since. Open the Adobe PDF printer Properties . Then click the Advanced tab. Then click on the button default printing . This should produce a significant window default print Adobe PDF is already opened in the Adobe PDF settings tab. On this tab, there is a checkbox to rely on system only fonts; do not use fonts in the document. If this box is checked, uncheck it and press apply , then OK. Then go to the general tab and press the button Preferences giving the window entitled Adobe PDF printing preferences. Again once, look for the box to rely on system only fonts; do not use document fonts. If this box is checked, uncheck it and press apply , then OK. Then back in the Adobe PDF Properties dialog box main, press apply (if it is enabled), and then click OK. Re-enter the app you were original print and try to print again. Let us know if that fixes the problem.

    -Dov

    PS: Unfortunately, rely on fonts system only turned on by default, causing problems for many applications. I always recommend turning it off (i.e., unchecking it)!

  • create dvd Windows will not import the mp4, how to get around it, someone knows?

    create dvd Windows will not import the mp4, how to get around it, someone knows?

    It must convert your mp4 to WMV format video, and then add the wmv in Windows DVD Maker.

    There are other formats supported by Windows, but I chose WMV format because it is the most reliable and foolproof format for Windows.

    You can google for a free video converter. No need to buy one, unless you are a 'huge' in the making of films and others.

    I use Prism video converter. It's free.

    I'm not fan of movie maker. Prism is what I need it to do.

    Back up your library, update if necessary iTunes and sync the iPod. This will not normally remove anything from the iTunes library, but other things can.

  • How to transfer music from my old hardrive itunes library?

    I am trying to transfer mp3 files that have been in my old laptop to my previous hardrive library iTunes on my new computer, without having to transfer all the mp3 files on hard drive across and hoping someone might be able to advise me how to do this. I want only the music that has been specifically on the iTunes of my previous laptop. I already bought a caddy HHD and implemented so that I can access the files on the hard drive. When I go to the iTunes library on the hard disk directory and go in itunes there is no record of music so I don't know otherwise how can I access my old library. Can someone tell me if there is a way to do this?

    Music from your old library would usually be in \Users\ < user > \Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music. Is that when you're looking? See make a library of portable split. You might consider the old library running from the external hard drive, or make a new portable library that contains all your media. Anyway you should also do a backup.
