New Dell laptop and everything else works. Have deleted and re-downloaded iTunes 2x. Made sure it's enable in Windows firwall. Even turned off firewall. Deleted McAffee totally. No proxy server is checked. I've googled all day and it seems others are having this problem but I can't find a solution. I'm convinced it's some setting somewhere but I've tried/googled everything. The iTunes diagnostic says iTunes is NOT enabled in firewall, but it is. It will say it's not enabled even if I turn off the firewall off.
Microsoft Windows 8 x64 Home Premium Edition (Build 9200)

iTunes 12.2.2.25
QuickTime not available
FairPlay 2.8.30
Upgraded from a 64 bit Windows 7 Home computer to Windows 10 via a DSL connect @ 3 MBPS connection speed (fastest I can get at my house). Had to let it run overnight/part of next day to complete. I did not get any error messages during installation.
Working with the new install of Windows 10 (I do tech support for a software company that supports our product which requires a Windows O/S), I wanted to be up-to-snuff on the product and see all the bells and whistles and get used to it before our tech support department got inundated.
Problem is that when I hook up my iPhone 5S to the USB port, it no longer will start the iTunes program - if I start iTunes, it opens, but the phone is not recognized under devices. Everything was fine before I did the upgrade. I have also tried changing USB cables to connect, and encounter the same issue.
I also found that when going into the Games (Solitaire), I get a message that it cannot connect. It lets me in, but there are those messages.
Both of these work fine on my Windows 10 computers at work, Solitaire and connecting the iPhone to them. I wonder if my download of the update somehow hung on something and didn't complete properly, or if something got corrupted during the upgrade process. I have also followed all the FAQs that pertained to the iPhone on the iTunes site, none of which fixed the issue.
Is there a way that I could download the Windows 10 again, to a USB drive from work and then bring home and do a repair?
I am trying to install iTunes 12.2.1 on Windows 10 Pro. During installation I get two errors, I believe they are connected. I am running this as Administrator from a User account. I have also tried running it with Windows 7 compatibility checked, same result.
This is the first error:
The installation continues for a little bit, then it throws this error:
At this point the installation fails.
My brother is in an identical situation; both of us have identical machines, upgraded from Windows 7 (where iTunes worked) to Windows 10, did a system refresh, and encountered this problem. Installing either version 11 or 10.7 do not throw either of these errors, however upon launch, it said it was not installed properly and would need to be reinstalled.
Before I do a clean install of Windows 10, I would like to know how to back up any music which isn't covered by my iTunes Match subscription. I know that I shall be able to bring in most of my music and I have backed up the ring tones which I have created to a thumb drive. I am really concerned about the CDs I have added to iTunes but have since given away.
Since I've upgraded to Windows 10, iTunes keeps loading on startup. I looked in the task manager under Startup, and disabled iTunesHelper. I don't see any other apps listed under Startup that are associated with iTunes or any other apple software.
Am I missing something? It's a little annoying having iTunes loading on startup.
I am using Windows 10240 and I have the latest iTunes 12.2.1 installed. I have it pinned to my taskbar but when I open it it creates a second icon for iTunes on the taskbar. I have tried unpinning and repinning both icons several times but that doesn't work. It always creates a second icon when it opens.
Back when I got Windows 10 I started having this problem with iTunes that I didn't have before with 7. When I go to close iTunes it freezes and then this message pops up, "One or more applications are using the iTunes scripting interface. Are you sure you want to quit? If you do nothing, all applications that are using the scripting interface will be automatically disconnected in (20 second countdown)" My options are Quit and Don't Quit.
When I hit quit, or let the countdown run out, it closes iTunes and everything is fine... for about 20 seconds, because iTunes suddenly re-opens by itself. Are there some new Windows 10 apps that are talking to iTunes even when it's off and they make it open again? This is really annoying because iTunes is always connecting to the iTunes store and causing lag spikes while I'm gaming. If
Here are pictures of all of the software I have installed.
One of the casualties of my upgrade to Win 10 Home was my iTunes library. Basically, iTunes could no longer find my music, even though it hadn't moved. To cut a long story short, I ended up creating a new library and all was well - or so I thought. Since then, however, every time I boot my PC, iTunes loads at startup, and the curious thing is that there is no reference to the programme in any of the startup folders, nor in Task Managers Start Up list. I also use CCleaner, and that also shows that nothing apple related should be running at startup.
Clearly something is causing iTunes to run? I should add, there are no iPods connected to the PC, and iTunes helper is also disabled via CCleaner.
I've notice iTunes does not run if my PC has been left on for a few days. If you click it then it runs as a process but has no window, no message, no anything.
I am trying to prevent iTunes from starting automatically when I login to my Windows 10 machine. I have checked startup folder and there is nothing in there. I am not sure where in the iTunes app preferences to control the app behavior.
For some reason; itunes keeps giving me the message "itunes can not sync your phone because you do not have enough access privileges" or something to that extent. And the odd thing is for some reason it just started happening today. The syncing had been working fine up until today.
I have the latest version of iTunes pinned to my taskbar and whenever I open iTunes, it creates a new icon next to it.
I have had this problem recently on Windows 7, however I fixed it by pinning the 'open' iTunes icon to the taskbar and unpinning the 'closed' one. I updated to Windows 10 and this was not an issue. HOWEVER, now I've purchased a new computer and the problem is persisting BUT this time on my new computer, it doesn't give me the option to pin the 'open' icon. So in other words, if I pin/unpin one of the open OR closed icons, the command will happen to both icons.
After updating to Windows 10 I cannot sign in to a Microsoft account, look at the Store or do anything that requires connection. I initially thought it was something wrong with my connection to the WiFi but my browser can connect and download from the internet fine and I am writing this on the same laptop.
I recently updated from Windows 7 to windows 10 and now i can't connect to the internet. Someone suggested i update my network adapter driver but i can't do that without an internet connection
I updated Windows automatically on my laptop the got the error msg. i use a lan cable to connect to internet, but a error message comes up 'A connection to the remote computer could not be established'
Ever since I got my computer (which came with Windows 10), I've had trouble connecting to the internet. Every time I shut down and start it up again, it's never online even though I'm using a cat 5 cable hooked directly to the source. My laptop can connect wirelessly, so that's how I know my internet is fine, but it's a Mac (which I'm currently using) so it's a completely different OS.
Usually if I went into the command prompt and did ipconfig /release then /renew, it fixes it, and I'm online. But ever since doing a recent Windows Update that trick doesn't seem to be working anymore. I.E. ipv4 and ipv6 are enabled, tried turning off Firewall temporarily to see if that was the issue, tried uninstalling antivirus software.
I upgraded to Windows 10 two months ago. Last week, I lost networking. I've scanned the posts and haven't found a solution.
Network troubleshooter says adapter might be the problem, device manager shows adapter working normally. Power saving not enabled. No VPN installed. Original adapter is Broadcomn NetLink Gigabit Ethernet.
Too late to roll back to Windows 7.
Installed new Realtek PCIe GBE Ethernet adapter that is Windows 10 compatible. Tried an old USB Netgear wireless approach.
Cannot connect desktop to network at all. All other tablets, laptops work fine.
Tried all suggested command prompts (netsh, etc).
Tried updating drivers by downloading to tablet and then transferring to computer.
I downloaded Windows 10, uninstalled my anti virus and disabled my firewall. I am unable to connect to the internet (Ethernet) on Windows 10, I've check the IPv6 and IPv4 which are both activated. I may need the drivers but I'm unsure how to do it.
My other issue is I can't revert back to Windows 7. Apparently my PC deleted the Windows 7 files downloading Windows 10. I tried using the windows disc to format my ssd to clean download Windows 7 back onto my computer, but it wouldn't let me for some reason.
So if there is an easy fix for the internet issue, ill keep Windows 10. But if it's going to take me all day of troubleshooting I'd much rather format my computer back to windows 7.

There seem to be a lot of these problems and they are posted all over.
Firstly most of my programs that were carried over from my windows 10 upgrade seem to have some form of internet connectivity problems, my browsers work completely fine, with the exception of internet explorer, which I think is the reason for the connectivity problems, it also seems that I cannot install java, that was a possible solution that came up in a different forum. error says: cannot install java with current internet settings. The other programs that have connectivity problems are steam, bluestacks and Microsoft office 365, and that it cannot verify my licence I am currently reinstalling it to see if this solves it. will post it here if it has been solved. I use to have comodo antivrus before upgrading to windows 10, I am unsure if there are any remnants of it hiding that is causing these problems.
I have just bought an HP laptop running windows 10. I cannot connect to internet wirelessly as when I select my network connection it requests username and password. (Screen shot attached)I only have a network password for my connection and have never had or been requested for a username.
We have a couple of laptops at home and they connect with password only no problem. It is only this laptop that requests both. I can find no way past it and cannot connect. It connects via cable fine but thats obviously not ideal for portable laptop.
The internet functionality works fine on his PC after upgrading from Win 8 to Win 10, though there is one problem that we cannot seem to figure out. Whenever the computer is restarted, it somehow cannot connect to the internet. This is especially weird because it will connect after being booted up from a full shutdown.
I should also mention that this is connected via Ethernet cable, not WiFi.
Tried to connect to Wifi today and couldn't find how. When I searched for online assistance I noticed that it directs you to the settings and then the network & Internet tab.Except I don't have that tab in settings. Mine is only Network.
