Try opening iTunes in a different Windows user account first, to see if it is a user profile problem or system-wide.

  • Macbook pro runs slow and itunes wont open

    My macbook pro froze and went to a black screen while I was using quicktime so I forced shut down and rebooted and now it runs really slow and itunes and quicktime wont open.  I am completely updated

    Your MBP should be able to accept 6 GB RAM.  I suggect that you install the maximum.  Yosemite should run more efficiently as a result.
    I note that you have Novatel and Sierra wireless installed.  If you do not need one, delete it.

  • Installed latest update and restarted computer and iTunes wont open!

    I have just installed the latest update to iTunes and restarted the computer when told to and went to open iTunes to sync my latest songs and it says:
    "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missed.
    Please reinstall iTunes."
    This would result in me loosing all my music so I hope you have a solution.

    A simple thing to try is a repair install. You can do this from programs on Control panel, or you can download the iTunes installer and save in on your PC. When you run it it will give the option to repair if it is the same version as the one you have installed.

    Otherwise, in the past this has been associated with Spyware Terminator blocking things, but that was a while ago.
    The other thing to check for is malware. You can download a free version of malwarebytes to do the scan:

  • Accidentally took off quick time player and Itunes wont open now

    so I have a pentium 3 windows 2000 IBM laptop
    terrible i know
    i was trying to get more memory onto my computer by deleting programs i didnt need and a supposed "computer wiz" told me that i didnt need quick time player to run Itunes.
    so i took it off and now Itunes wont even open. a message pops up saying that i need to reinstall Itunes
    because i have such an old computer (and buying a new one isnt an option right now) the newest version of quick time player isnt compatible with my computer
    i tried downloading an older version of quicktime and that hasnt worked either
    so my fear is that if i unistall and then reinstall Itunes that
    a) i will lose all my music
    and
    b) there wont be a version of Itunes i can download since i have such an old computer
    any ideas or suggests?

    Uninstalling the iTunes program should not affect your music folder however to be sure nothing goes wrong you should backup you music before starting. You might also want to have a look at this page, it refers to XP but you should be able to adapt it to 2000: Removing iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components
    You can get the highest version of iTunes that will work with Windows 2000 at this link: iTunes 7.3.2 for Windows 2000

    Working now? If not, ask yourself what may have changed just preceding the misbehavior? Add and App? Update one? Update iOS? Anything.

  • Downloaded 11.1.3 and itunes wont open

    Just downloaded itunes 11.1.3 and now it won't open.  What to do?

    hey katycakes,
    yeah, i totally hear ya; I've been struggling with iTunes for the past few days, don't even wanna image what over a month would be like. (First World Problems, i guess.)
    anyway, I've read through so much notes and posts the past few days trying to get it back working (and in fact, finally succeeded today), maybe I can help you out here, even though you seem to be suffering a different symptom. (To recap, my iTunes didn’t open at all; no spinning wheel, no error dialog, no nothing.)
    so first things first, can you confirm that you downloaded iTunes 11.1.3 from here:
    > http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    and are running Mavericks 10.9.1?
    next up, have you tried
    - opening iTunes in 'safe boot'
    as well as
    - opening iTunes from a guest account?
    if so, did you experience the same issue in either circumstance?
    for instructions on how to boot into safe mode, see:
    > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    and for instructions on enabling/disabling a guest account, refer to:
    > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11321
    if you need further instructions on the procedures above, let me know.
    this should help pinning down the cause of the whole mess, as I reckon it might be anything from a faulty kext, to a broken preference file, to a diseased plugin.

  • Quicktime and itunes wont open?

    i have checked most of the help topics about this but none really work, when i click on it nothing will pop up just this message " itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"
    help please

    I have the same exact problem someone please help!

  • ITunes wont open after re-instaling win xp..

    i just re-installed xp and itunes wont open now, shows this--iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.
    i tried removing quicktime and itunes and tried re-installing too...but wont help...
    i downloaded the old ver 9.2.1.5 but it still wont work....
    Pls help....
    AppName: itunes.exe           AppVer: 9.2.1.5           ModName: unknown
    ModVer: 0.0.0.0           Offset: 6975515c

    I have wasted hours on this for the past few days, and this is what finally worked. I uninstalled both itunes and quicktime. I then reintalled itunes and quicktime, then uninstalled quicktime only. I then reinstalled quicktime standalone. For some reason it now works. I have no idea why this worked, but there had to be something strange going on with quicktime. I would try this before I got into the system and started deleting files, and turning things off. At one point I couldn't even restart my computer.....so don't go there. I am not happy that Apple does not come forward with more help, this is a real mess.

  • My husband and I have upgraded our phones (iPhone 4s and iPhone 5) to the iPhone 5s.  We have given 2 of our kids the "old" phones and want to set them up as an iPod touch.  Both kids have email and need to be able to text (iMessage).

    My husband and I have upgraded our phones (iPhone 4s and iPhone 5) to the iPhone 5s.  We have given 2 of our kids the "old" phones and want to set them up as an iPod touch.  Both kids have email and need to be able to text (iMessage).
    I have read multiple posts on how to do this and I am still confused.
    Apple ID/ICoud:
    We want to be able to monitor what they do, but do not want their devices linked to our emails/contacts/etc...  Each kid has their own email account.  So, from what I have read the best way to do this is to use our family Apple ID, but set them up with a separate iCloud account?  Is this correct?
    Reset/Restore/DFU:
    To start fresh we have done multiple factory resets.  I did one that someone said was a DFU and a plan ol' factory reset, etc...  Not sure the difference.  However, when I do that I get the "hello" screen and am able to start setting the phone up anew.  However, when I go to set the phone up as an iPod I end with the same result.
    So, here is what I am doing (tell me what I am doing wrong):
    Hello Screen
    Asks me to select language and selecting:  English
    Select Your Country or Region:  United States
    Choose a Wi-Fi Network:  select my home wi-fi network
    Enter password:  entered my home wi-fi network password
    Activiate iPhone - wants me to enter Apple ID and Passwordsays that this iphone is currently linked to an Apple ID (k*******@gmail.com).  Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPhone.
    Location Services - I have enabled location services
    Set Up iPhone
    Set Up as New iPhone
    Apple ID
    Options are to sign in with your Apple ID or Create a Free Apple ID
    Or I could "skip this step"
    I signed in with my Apple ID
    Terms and Conditions - Agree
    iCloud - I can select either to use iCloud or Don't Use iCloud - I selected use iCloud
    Find My iPhone - I can select either to use find my iPhone or to not - I selected use find my iphone
    Once I do this it says iMessage and FaceTime and shows the following:
    my email
    my other child's cell phone number
    and my husband's work phone number
    This is where things do not make sense.  I only want the phone set up with the current child's email address.  Where did I go wrong?

    There are a number of Apple services: iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, Game center, Find My iPad, etc.
    Now, to share apps, music and books you need to have the same Apple ID:
    iPad's Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Your purchasing Apple ID.
    For the other service, your wife should have her own Apple ID.
    All she needs is a valid e-mail address, apply Apple ID below:

  • Why my ipad doesn't sync wi-fi since I upgraded to iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.0.40?

    why my ipad doesn't sync wi-fi since I upgraded to iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.0.40? I have a pc running windows 7 and my Bonjour service is started. I use the Remote app (airplay) normally but the ipad doesn't appear listed in iTunes to sync wi-fi.

    Is your iPad recognized by iTunes when connected to your computer via USB?
    If so, does Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi remain selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes?

  • Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
    Redo the install, following the below procedure.   However, when you re-install Itunes,  right click and run the install as administrator.   For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
