iTunes

[icewolf9]

Just downloaded it because I was forced to.... now when I click "open" on the stat menu.... uhh, nothing happens. Even clicked on tracks and clicked, "play from iTunes" but I get no response. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong!!

You're guilty of operating technical equipment whilst under the influence of being female.

[icewolf9]

Can we stop with the girl thing now...!? I only want it to work so I can hear this song. The only reason I downloaded it in the first place! Media player is better!

[gtc]

Reinstall it.

[icewolf9]

I just downloaded it! Ridiculous... but will reinstall.

[gtc]

Remove it first, then reinstall it then restart the computer. Tis what i'd do.

[Gazza_DJ]

Why were you forced to install it? the only thing it is absolutely needed for is firmware updates and restoring iPods.

[icewolf9]

:thumbs:

[icewolf9]

Why were you forced to install it?

Because I "had" to listen to this great tune, which wouldn't play on my media player, it had to be on itunes.

[Gazza_DJ]

Im sure other players can play it...

[ajsxi]

you need to authenticate i-tunes to play music on you comp.

only music purchased on Itunes forces you to play on itunes! other media players are capable. :thumbs:

All I have is media player, VLC (i think it's called that) and quck time. Mate who sent me it said it was itunes??

Na its a common fault, mine wouldnt work for like 3 or 4 months. Then I decided my I-pod needed updating so tried everything. Now I got 2 go into Local settings first nd empty temporary folder. Itv works then.


By the way, you dont really drive that do you?

[Gazza_DJ]

Give Foobar2000 and WinAmp a go :thumbs:

I don't even have an ipod... I just wanted to use it to play these tunes...?

Haven't for a while, now :(

More downloading!? Hehe... methinks I'll live in ignorance and stick with Media Player!

[Coops]

Download this and you will be able to play pretty much everything ;)

[Gazza_DJ]

It wont take long - they arent memory and space hogs like iTunes - winamp is only a 10MB download, and foobar2000 is only 2.7MB!

[icewolf9]

:lol: This is probs why my computer dies all the time - download too much random stuff. Kaspersky has gone again, too. Gggrrr.

[j2duble08+]

*in shock*

[SeanH]

I have 2 seperate libraries both on WMP and iTunes, iTunes is for the purpose of syncing musik to my iphone :S

[icewolf9]

iTunes now works. Whoop. :)

[Navajo]

lol at people's frustration using Windows

[Gazza_DJ]

Being caused by Apple software :look:

[Navajo]

Its like running shell optimax petrol in a Skoda... its still gonna breakdown and make you look sh!t no matter how good the fuel is.

Slight dig at Joel there?

Not really - While iTunes is pretty slick and nice to use on OS X, Apple done a ****ty job of porting it to Windows, and as a result its a resource intensive, buggy bit of bloatware. Dont get them problems with Foobar.

Fair enough, I just disagree with anything that uses 5x as much space and resources as other programs to serve the same purpose and offer absolutely nothing extra for all that extra bloat :shrug:

well it has an apple logo on it for a start :D

[joshbosh12]

normally, on a windows, before you can open itunes, you have to agree to the terms and conditions that will be hidden behind all the other pages you have open at the time.

[Gazza_DJ]

lol, Apple's ToS is funny. If you bothered to read the ToS on the Windows version of Safari, it actually says that you cannot install it on non-apple operating systems / hardware :|

just buy a new pc.

I got given such a cool laptop today. Has WiMax Built in :D how many people can say that lol.

[Gazza_DJ]

Even if i did, i would still use Foobar or WinAmp.
