Audio :: ITunes Version Compatible With Windows 8?
Aug 5, 2013Is there a version of Itunes that's compatible with Windows 8? I've installed Version 11.0.4, which is supposed to be compatible, several times, but it just won't run.

View 4 RepliesI have an online course where the audio/video files are in itune store, but everytime I click on the link, it said itmss protocol is not registered in Windows, so the only solution seems to download/install iTunes for Windows. I'm trying to use VLC for all my audio/video files, so if I can avoid installing iTunes and still be able to download and watch the course video/audio, would be ideal.
Here are my questions:
- how can I visit itune store and check which free video/audio files are available to download. The ideal would be just click on the link, but everytime I tried that, the FF responded that does not know how to handle it.
- what's the format used by apple for audio/video files in itune store?
- supposed that I could download the video/audio files from itune store, is it possible to play with VLC?
My environment:
- Windows 8.1 pro
- VLC 2.1.3
- 6GB RAM
- intel i3 CPU
I'm planning to purchase Office, which version of Office is compatible with Windows 8 Pro?

I currently stream iTunes via the iMac, but would prefer to use my Windows 8 machine. But, so far, no go with Airport and iTunes does not have a speaker selector (probably cuz Airport not working).
Is 5.6.1 not Windows 8 compatible? If not, is there a more recent version?
I just purchased a new laptop 3 days ago with windows 8 and I am trying to export my movies onto itunes but they won't import. Previously on my older laptop I was running windows vista and the movie files played on itunes. They were mp4 files. I went onto the set defaults for programs and tried un-checking the mp4 box on the program "Video" which I think may be the reason I can't export them onto itunes but the box won't un-check.

Is it possible to indicate to iTunes to not be suspended when user switch and continue to play music in background ?
I only get a buzzing noise out of my speakers when I play music. Otherwise I get nothing. Under device Manager it says;

I have windows 8 pro. Trying to install Itunes 11.01 64bit for Windows 8. Keep getting message "This app can't run on your computer".
Did a Google search on this problem and tried running as an Administrator, and changing compatibility to windows 7, but still get the same message. A suggestion online was made to save file before u download, but no prompt comes up to save.
My setup of Windows Media Player maybe the reason that my entire ITunes library has copied into W M P. I found out how to empty it ,but it keeps coming back. How do I stop this happening.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI did the Upgrade Assistant from Win7 pro to 8 pro and this is what I was told:
Secure Boot isn't compatible with your PC
Your PC's firmware doesn't support Secure Boot so you won't be able to use it in Windows 8.
More info, I really want Secure boot, however. I have a UEFI BIOS. I am willing to upgrade or clean install, as I will never use the previous windows 7 version again. Is there a way to get Secure boot with my computer [when I upgrade to 8]?
Secure boot requires firmware that supports UEFI v2.3.1 Errata B and has the Microsoft Windows Certification Authority in the UEFI signature database. How do I get this?
I've found that on my Windows 8 64-bit PC whenever I try to install a new version of iTunes it always gives me an error. The only way to upgrade to the latest version is to uninstall iTunes completely, reboot, then install the new version of iTunes. Could it be because I'm running the 64-bit version of Windows? It's kind of annoying completely uninstalling iTunes just to upgrade to the new version but it's not a huge issue.

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I never get any notification and I can't work out the problem, I have uninstalled and re-installed and still have the same issue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI purchased a GMYLE Windows media remote to control dvd software on my computer which works fine but the remotes nav, play and pause buttons etc also at the same time controls iTunes, is there a way to stop the remote controlling iTunes?
Just some info, obviously it does not happen when iTunes is closed but I like to keep it running all the time to download podcasts in the background and don't really want to keep closing it when I want to watch a dvd.
Also I went into iTunes/preferences/devices and ticked the box "only allow paired or home sharing remotes to control itunes" but every time I open iTunes preferences again the box is un-ticked.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI began an installation this morning after paying FIRST the Windows 8 upgrade fee for the install.
The preinstaller said my machine might not be compatible because it appears that my processor would not support NX, but it would try to turn it on when installing.
Well.....after nearly an hour of installing at the very end it says... there was an error and your system cannot be installed and we are returning you to your original state.
I am STUNNED that Win 8 will not run on something as recent or advanced as an HP XW6200 workstation. What the heck is Microsoft thinking to design an OS that will leave out such recent and advanced equipment.
I've looked all over HP, MS, and the net to see if there is anything about these workstations and NX, but I cant find any info.
On HP website they simply say there is no information on whether or not the xw6200 is compatible.
I cant find anything in the BIOS to turn on NX.
I have several of the xw6200 and many more xw6400s which I am sure will be the same issue.
I have a HP Pavilion dv7 running Windows 7 64-bit and Office 2010 Starter. There is a known issue that when you attempt to run the Windows 8 upgrade Assistant, it displays Office 2010 Starter as "Not Compatible". In order to correct this, you need to install an update (KB2553141). The problem is that even with the update installed, the upgrade assistant still points the Office 2010 as not compatible.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a 2 tb Network store on a 1 gig Ethernet, which worked fine on Windows 7.
I ran the upgrade advisor this facility and software was not identified as a potential problem.
However it does NOT WORK.
It just says it is incompatible on Windows 8.
The Novostore website is not useful.
There is no useful information as to if or when it will be made to work.
whether the Sony HDR-SR12E handycam is compatible with Windows 8.1? I am trying to decide whether to buy this video camera, and it will be nearly as expensive as my computer. I have asked Sony and the Sony forum but have not received a response. To be honest, I don't know how the operating system is involved with transferring AVCHD files from the hard disk or memory cards of a handycam. I notice in file associations on my Windows 8.1 system that .mts (AVCHD) files can be associated with programs, and I have Adobe Premiere Elements 11 installed, and the user guide indicates that AVCHD files can be imported. I'm in unknown waters with transferring files from hard disk video cameras.

Most of the game i've installed are not compatible with my windows 8 single language. Of course my laptop's requirements are enough for the game but the problem lies within the windows 8. Are there any solutions to this matter ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedOne week ago I bought a new Inspiron 15-5547 with Windows 8.1 preinstalled. I tried downloading some online games and they simply will not work. My machine freezes as soon as I log in. I've been told by a GM from one of the games that the problem is that the game requires DirectX 9 for graphics and what is being downloaded is DirectX 11 which does not have some files that version 9 has. I have bounced back and forth between the game forums and Microsoft without success.
I have tried downloading all kinds of DirectX End User Run Times from Microsoft and one of two things always happens. Either the installer says I have the newest version and I do not need DirectX 9 or the installer says that I do not have a version of Windows that can run DirectX 9. Apparently, that installer is old enough that it can't recognize Windows 8 as an actual version of Windows. The only other suggestion I've gotten is to install an older video driver from Dell and see if that will work.
Is there a way to run a more CLASSIC version of windows in windows 8? Like windows 7, I'm having a hard time navigating windows 8. Don't like it at all!!!

I recently got the new windows 8 phone and when I plugged it into my computer after creating an Xbox Music account it automatically imported a handful of songs that are in my iTunes library... I literally did not do anything. I want to get all of my music onto Xbox music so that I do not have t bother with iTunes anymore.
