I can not get itunes to open on Windows 7...

I just got a new iPhone and wanted to back up my old iPhone to my computer one more time before switching over...Two hours later I still can not get iTunes to open.  I have two different acounts on my computer, iTunes will load on the secondary account, but not my main account.  I logged into iTunes on that account and now have issues with libraries, and overriding and synching and deleting, and a million other messages that made me nervous about backing up my phone through the secondary account.  I just want to get iTunes to work on my main account.  I have tried several different things, and am getting incredibly frustrated.  Just in case I messed up a step of the "obvious" fixes, I would appreciate anything anyone could suggest to help   Thank you!

Doublechecking. Have you tried the "User-specific troubleshooting" section of the following document?

  • Can't get Itunes to open on Windows

    I am trying to set up an ipod shuffle for the first time. I downloaded and installed itunes from the apple web site but itunes will not open. When I plug the shuffle in the user agreement page comes up and I click agree and then nothing else happens. If I double click on the itunes icon the agreement page comes up and after I click on agree a box popes up saying that itunes has encountered a problem and is closing. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times and still doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated.

    Try using this article and it should correct the issue.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
    Very important that you complete steps 11 - 19 to completely remove itunes before reinstalling. If these steps are not done then the Issue may not be resolved with just removing the Application from Add/remove Programs in windows

    Will iTunes open in safe mode? Hold down CTRL+SHIFT as, or immediately after, you click the icon that starts iTunes and keep holding until you see this prompt.
    Click Continue.
    Assuming iTunes has opened, enable the menu bar, if necessary, with CTRL+B. Then go to Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Press OK, close iTunes, wait until it has had a chance to fully close then reopen.
    Will iTunes open normally now?
    If not, see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for genral advice.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Still can't get iTunes to open

    After help from this DB I uninstalled every part of my iPod Nano and iTunes from my computer, re-installed everything and still can't get iTunes to open. It thinks about it and then just doesn't open, doesn't run, nothing. I even tried going on iTunes on here and surfing around and can't get the Music Store to open. If I click on it, it opens for 1/2 a second and then flips back to the main page. Any thoughts? Sorry to be such a PITA. I'm just frustrated with a new iPod and no music.

    Okay, it seems I am not the only one with this problem. Sorry... did not see the other post until I typed this. But this is frustrating. Anyone know if I can use a later version and still use my Nano?

    Hello there, kiwilucea.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some in-depth steps for troubleshooting your issue:

    Keep in mind if you get to Step 12 Reinstall iTunes, those steps need to be followed exactly as outlined for the reinstall to be effective.

    Any help would be great!

    This error usually points into the jailbreak direction. If DFU mode does not help, you can't restore the phone due to the modified software that has been installed before you got the phone.

    How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers, but I don't know how I did it.

    For me, iTunes always opens to whatever I had selected previously when it was closed.
    In other words, if I had Apps selected when I closed iTunes, the next time I opened iTunes it would be on Apps.

    I strongly recommend that you install iTunes to the default C: paths. You can change the perferences to keep the actual music files on your D: partition.
