hi … about this masseg
‘connect your device and click here” and got this -> Couldn’t initiate process: {0}Unable to load DLL ‘iTunesMobileDevice.dll’: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0×8007007E)
that you use the new itunes 9.2 or 9.1
fix : download the old iTunesMobileDevice.dll and put them all in same folder (iTunesMobileDevice.dll + ClearCydiaListCache.exe + Manzana.dll ) start the ClearCydiaListCache.exe and evry thing well be fine
for the old .dll googlit
After that it says”Please,Connect your device”when you’ve clicked…,but my phone is connected…
after i did everything and clicked Please Connect Your Device it said could not initiate process…blah blah….so what do i do?
I’ve already put iTunesMobileDevice.dll in the same folder, then I run ClearCydiaListCache and it just says “Please connect your device…” nothing happens and nothing gets fixed.
ok i was getting the same message about that said “Couldn’t initiate process: {0}Unable to load DLL ‘iTunesMobileDevice.dll’: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)” so i installed the old iTunesMobileDevice.dll (the file he said to use in Fahar’s comment. so i did that. i put all three files in together, and now i got a different message saying, “couldn’t initiate process: {0}AMDeviceNotificationSubscribe Failed with error -402653180″ so now what do i do?
This sucks:
Couldn’t initiate process: {0}Unable to load DLL ‘iTunesMobileDevice.dll’: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
Using iTunes 10.
{0}Unable to load DLL ‘iTunesMobileDevice.dll’: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0×8007007E)
can anyone help? hambuglarmike@aol.com
So just like many other users I am getting “couldn’t initiate process: {0}AMDeviceNotificationSubscribe Failed with error -402653180″ I was hoping it was something simple like needing to be run as an admin, or possibly setting compatibility mode, but none of these worked. I have been Googling this for about 30 mins now, and no one seems to have the fix, possibly the app needs to be updated, especially considering that it requires the old dll file. Not sure, but I will keep looking and post the fix if I ever find it…
