Itunes - icon won't maximize

[hurkis]

Hi.

This has been working well up until I installed the 2 new security updates. I am no longer able to maximize the itunes icon in the toolbar. I can maximize all other taskbar buttons but not that one. I have even deinstalled Itunes and reinstalled.

Any suggestions or should I restore to an earlier date ?

Hi hurkis and welcome to sevenforums

What security updates did you install? May want to un-install them. Could we also get some info abt your system

Thanks

These two were installed today:
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 Release Candidate (KB972260)

Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB973923)

This one was installed yesterday...

Definition Update for Windows Defender - KB915597 (Definition 1.63.422.0)


ITunes was working correctly and it looks like it still is, but I cannot maximize the window.

My system is a Dell XPS 420 x32 bit (my system info is in my profile).

Thanks

Nice computer. I have one also. I downloaded the same updates w no prob and wouldn't know how to recreate your problem

when was your last back up from?

If you mean my restore point, I can pretty much go back every day for 1 month.

probably easier to go back to when you didnt have the problem. How long ago was it? do you have data from then to now that you need to keep?

The problem occurred in the last 1-2 days. I had been using ITunes for a long time and it has been working well since I upgraded to Windows 7 for the last month...

I'll try restoring back to an earlier date..

Thanks

Hi.

I restored from 4 days ago, and no change... I then restored about 10 days ago... no change...

Any suggestions ?

did you remove the 3 updates?

Yes...

?Uninstall iTunes and reinstall it?

 

[hurkis]

Yes, several times... When I put my cursor over the icon I can see the ITunes screen with all my songs listed.. my ipod sync's... but I just can't get the application up on the screen....

wait "up on the screen or maximized"?

To me both are the same thing... I cannot maximize the image onto the screen (or put it up on the screen) anymore.

If you cant see the app at all thats not a maximized problem. If you can see it and click on a song (or whatever) but cant make it fill your screen, thats a maximized problem. So which is it?

Here is a pic of what I see

OK so its not a maximized problem. Have you right clicked the preview?

Your first comment.... I can't get the app to open onto the screen, as you can see by the pic, I can place my curser over the icon on the taskbar and see the little image. That is all I can see. (i can see in the little picture, my songs etc) I can't put the little image onto the screen so that I can work with the application.

Hopefully the pic I posted better explains my problem.


Thanks

Mike
