i purchased music from itunes and now itunes will not open. how do i get it back??

Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

I downloaded the new version of iTunes and now it will not open.

I opened my iTunes a day ago, and the "Download new version" came up.
I went and downloaded it and ever since iTunes will not open no matter what, I have tryed many ways to open it and it still wont open.
When I go to log off, shutdown, or restart my computer, it will not. I can only shut it down and I have to do it maunally. But if I wait around for it to shutdown, ect. a "Ending Program" annoucement comes up and has the iTunes icon, but for the name of the progrom it is only a bunch of little and big boxes.
I do not know what to do, I have unistalled iTunes and Quicktime, then installed it again and still nothing. I even tryed to do the "Repair" that comes up when you already have it installed and still nothing.
Can anyone help me? Or does anyone else have this problem?

hey peeps i got a possible answer to our prolems. i contacted apple support and this is what they gave me:
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
In Windows, some background processes can cause issues for other programs and processes. These conflicts can prevent applications such as iTunes and QuickTime Player from working correctly, opening, or even installing. You might be able to resolve these conflicts by disabling some items using the System Configuration Utility (MSCONFIG) in Windows XP. This utility is not included with Windows 2000.
Important: Disabling third-party System Services and Startup Items can prevent some software or OEM hardware on your computer from working correctly. For example, this can affect the CD/DVD control buttons on portable computers.
1. On the Start menu, click Run. A Run window (command prompt) appears.
2. Type msconfig in the Open field and click OK. The System Configuration Utility opens.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Select the "Selective Startup" option.
5. Deselect the "Load Startup Items" checkbox.
6. Click the Startup tab.
7. Select the "iTunesHelper" and "qttask" checkboxes in the list.
8. Click the Services tab.
9. Make sure that "Hide All Microsoft Services" is selected.
10. Click Disable All.
11. Select the iPodService checkbox in the list.
12. Click OK.
13. Click Restart.
If following these steps resolves the issue, you may want to use the System Configuration Utility to turn on the third-party System Services and Startup Items one or a few at a time (restarting your computer after turning on the item or items) to identify which System Service or Startup Item is causing the conflict. You can turn all of them back on by selecting the Normal Startup option under the General tab of the System Configuration Utility window, but please note that this may cause the issue to recur.

now...it worked for me, and after i got iTunes to work i went back on the msconfig and i enabled all of the third party system services and start-up items so that all of my stuff worked again. read the dirctions carefully and thoroughly before using these directions. i was being helped by a professional and i am not taking responsibility if anyone does antyhing bad to their computer. my advice is you should set a system restore point before making all these changes.hope it works for ya guys!!!

Will pick a song on ipod touch and then it will randomly play another song. Is there a fix for this?

My daughter's ipod. I know little about them.
She will select a song to play and then it randomly plays a different song. Often with the picture for the original song displayed. We've tried resetting and no better.
Is there anything else we can try?
Thanks.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I just updated ITunes and now it will not open at all. My computer recognizes my IPod, but I cannot get ITunes to open at all.

Please help! I just want to put music on my Ipod.

Perhaps give one of the following documents a try:

Some water got into my iPhone4 and now the home button is having issues. Is there a fix for this?

As the title says, my home button is having issues that started after some water got into my iPhone4. It takes about twenty attempts before it will register that I hit the home button. It is not under warranty anymore. Any help or suggestions on how to fix the problem would be appreciated. Thanks

Take to Apple and have then check.
If it is damage you will be charged for the replacement since the warranty does not cover damage.

The ipod is not a backup/storage device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer to your new one.
The Apple store will do this for you, you can call apple support and they will help you, you can use google.

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

I have an iPhone 4 that i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access all my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? It is also on the same apple id, but i dont know if that would help with anything.

I think when uninstalling you may also have to choose (tick) to delete the preferences and other personal data like the bookmarks, stored passwords etc. to erase completely. If you are installing afresh, please try right-clicking on the file and '''Run as administrator''' to install. And when uninstalling, please also make sure choose to delete all data and also manually delete any '''Mozilla''', '''Mozilla Firefox''' or '''Firefox''' from %appdata%, %localappdata% and %programfiles%. You can open a location by typing for eg. %appdata% in the '''Run''' box (Windows key + R). You may also have to check the '''VirtualStore''' folder in %localappdata%. Files in the VirtualStore can be problematic. I think a clean installation may help.

I installed iTunes update on my pc running windows vista and now it will not open. Error message MSVCR80.dll missing???

First try updating to iTunes 11.1.5.5, using an installer downloaded from the Apple website:
