Problem with installation of iTunes on Windows XP

I tried to install the latest version of iTunes on my computer which has Windows XP, but got an error message that says it is not installed properly and I had to re - install. I had a problem installing previous versions so I wonder how to solve this problem without losing any of the music.

This question is better in the Apple Forums (for example, http://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_for_windows), but you can just completely uninstall iTunes and install a freshly downloaded copy.  Your music should not be affected by uninstalling iTunes, but it's always a good idea to back up data that you are interested in.

Here are the instructions from Apple to completely uninstall and reinstall iTunes on XP: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Make sure after you have uninstalled all the components Apple to remove iTunes shortcuts from the desktop, taskbar, or start menu before you reinstall.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

    If the problem persists and you have a 64-bit system try for the old version of video cards which is a 64-bit Installer for most of the 32-bit code, similar to all 64 bit iTunes up to 12,1 versions.

    Problem installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
  • Compatibility problem with Vista and iTunes

    I downloaded iTunes 9 on my Tobisha laptop Satellite last night and put about 2.5 GB of music on it. I didn't upload the music from the internet. I used MP3s, I had for a few years.

    When I went to boot up the laptop this morning the loading process took some time, but it never loaded to the login screen. I just see the bottom of MicroSoft. Is there a compatibility problem with Vista and iTunes? Maybe I put too much music on my laptop?

    Boot in safe mode and delete iTunes and all the music I downloaded would solve the problem? Or it is less simple than that?

    Don't know where to direct this question if any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    iTunes is compatible with Vista and there should not be any problem.
    Yesterday, I installed iTunes 9 on my U400 and everything happened correctly.
    If your laptop can not boot Vista correctly, then you should try the repair feature.

    Turn on the computer and press F8. Now you will see the advanced boot menu.
    Now, you have many choices.

    As a first step, you should try the option called: last good known Configuration (Advanced)

    If this will not help and the Vista will not start then try the option called repair your computer. This option displays a list of system recovery tools, you can use to repair startup problems, run diagnostics, or restore your system.

    If that does not help, then you will need to retrieve the unit using the Toshiba recovery disc or HARD drive recovery.

  • I have problems with Adobe Photoshop CS4 and Windows 7 32-bit Professiol.

    When I open an image of the bridge, the photoshop Panel is locked on one side of the screen.  The onle way I can get out of it is CTRL, alt, delete.  The problem persists.  I tried to uninstall Adobe and reinstall with no luck.  I called Adobe and they think that there is a problem with the security system in Windows.  Help, please.

    Hey jrcjr,

    This could be attributed to several factors such as conflicts between device drivers, applications, settings of operating system, hardware, and corrupt elements in specific files.

    Basic troubleshooting

    1. make sure that the computer meets the minimum requirements for Photoshop.
    2. install all Windows updates. .
    3 re-create the Photoshop preferences file.

    Re-create the Photoshop preferences file to eliminate problems that may cause a damaged Preferences file.

    To re-create the Photoshop preferences files:

    1. quit Photoshop.
    2. rename the \AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.psp directory Users\ [username] Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.old.
    3 launch Photoshop. Photoshop creates a new Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.psp file.
    If the problem persists, the Photoshop preferences files aren't the cause. To restore custom settings, quit Photoshop, and then delete the new Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.psp file and restore the original name of the previous Adobe Photoshop CS4 Prefs.psp file.

    4 restart Windows in a modified mode

    See this article for reference:

  • Any incorrect serial number installation problem with PES 12 - PE 12 Windows or Mac?

    http://forums.Adobe.com/message/5711110#5711110

    Today, I went from 12 elements of Photoshop and first elements 12 tries at versions purchased in a box that came with two installation disks. One of the drives was of 12 items of Photoshop and elements 12 Windows first and the other of these versions on Mac.

    On the desktop Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit, I was struck with the wrong serial number for Photoshop elements 12 installation I did first. Tried 4 x, double and triple checking for you sure this wasn't 'user error '. It was not the case. The 5th test, purchased serial number was accepted and the installation went to a success.

    Tonight a friend alerted me to similar reports occurs for many users of Photoshop Elements Mac 12. See the link at the top of my post.

    At no time see this problem with the installation of first elements 12 from the same disc with respect to the installation of 12 Photoshop elements.

    Subsequently, I installed these programs with the same installation disc on my laptop 8 64-bit Windows, I have no problems with the installation.

    For now, I don't know if this incorrect serial number is elusive to 12 items in Photoshop or not.

    If someone experiences this problem with Premiere Elements, please let us know.

    From the link above, it seems that Adobe is working on the issue.

    Thank you.
