Windows 7 Service Pack 1 suspected bug with Itunes

[Max Power]

Hmmm...after I did the uninstall, the service pack reference went away. I am guessing that your uninstall is incomplete.

I am also having this problem, and it is ruining my ipod (apple have already said it is beyond repair but im determined to prove them wrong)
I did what this post said to uninstall Service Pack 1 and in the 'installed updates' it is no longer there but when i right click on My Computer it says Service Pack 1
I tried to do a system restore but it wont go back as far as before I installed SP1 (only yesterday which is annoying!)

Anyone know how to get rid of it?
iTunes is still freezing so it seems as if it is still there regardless of what the installed updates section says

Here a tutorial on how to uninstall SP1 - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/99064-windows-7-service-pack-1-sp1-beta-rc-uninstall.html

Good luck.

Thanks. There's a couple of suggestions in there that might help those with issues posted here.

I myself have no issues with the current version of iTunes with SP1 installed.

Good luck.

That's been my experience as well. In fact with the iPad in particular it seems better - less prone to the bonjour connection dropping (tends to cause iTunes to seize up.)

I have no issues with SP1 and my iTunes. Only thing I noticed was, iTunes asked me to authorize my laptop again.

My policy is to image my system partition at the end of each month, and then run Windows update immediately afterward.


The idea is to be able to undo damage from updates without losing any "work" . It would suck to have to roll back to an earlier image after doing a lot of work with other applications/the registry/etc.

While SP1 may be temping, I'm waiting to see how many problems it causes before installing it myself.

Are the people who are NOT having problems with itunes and SP1 using a 32 bit or 64 bit version of windows? Just wondering.

I'm running iTunes 10.1.0.56 and I'm not having an issues with SP1 installed with my iPhone 3GS connected. Honestly, I've had that issue with iTunes many times, before SP1, and before using Windows 7 at all. Thats why I only use iTunes on one PC to handle iOS updates and my Apps library. I use MediaMonkey to load music and movie to the phone. iTunes is utter crap.

I'm on Win7 Pro 64 bit and SP1 and I just purchased music and sync'd with no issues at all. So far my PC seems fine after SP1 update. I haven't syn my Iphone yet. But I've got an older 3G Iphone.

It's in their on-screen profile so you can see for yourself.......



Windows 7 64-bit.

I'm one who said I had/have no issue.

For those having issues with iTunes there's a new release - Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now (ver 10.2)

iTunes 10.2 seems to fix the problem.

 

[Max Power]

iTunes 10.2 seems to fix the problem.

I wouldn't be so sure. The update appears mostly to accomodate iOS 4.3 and was developed before this SP1 issue came up. They still seem to be having problems on the Apple forums:

I can't speak for others but on 4 systems, after SP1, problems with iTunes.
After upgrade to iTunes 10.2, no problems.

Thanks for the update.

I am running iTines 10.1.2.17 and have recently installed service pack 1 for Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit) and have to report that iTunes is behaving exactly as it should and my iPod has Synced OK and is now charging.

Since installing SP1 have also burned CD's Ok from iTunes.

Hey guys. I have a similar problem. After spinning my wheels forever on this I finally realized that I stated having problems with itunes not syncing my music and freezing up on sync after I installed SP1. Sometimes it will sync the music however when I play it back on my IPhone 3gs, it plays snippets of the song and will start the song 30 seconds in about. Weird!! Is anyone else having this problem with the 3gs??? The word part is, my music will play perfectly fine in itunes but once on the phone, it's all whacked out. I tied syncing with another system and it synced the music over perfectly. I checked the files, and they are all good with no corruption. It has to be something with SP1...

I'm using Windows 7 SP1 64 bit and iTunes 10.2 (the latest one). I get the freeze but iTunes later would recognize my iPhone 4 BUT NOT my wife's iPhone 3G on iOS 3.1.3.

Knowing Apple, that could be by deisign...:huh:
