Sorry I should give more detail. I have had to restore my PC and have lost the iTunes app. I have had several goes at downloading the app from the Apple Store. The app is now on my desktop. I attempt launch the app, unsuccessfully, and receieve the following message:

'iTunes.exe has been set to run in compatibility mode for an older version of Windows. For best results, turn off compatability mode for iTunes before you open it'.

I currently use Windows 7 and I'm not sure if the above is a Windows or iTunes issue. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
