I ran an itunes update, but now itunes won't open as it says it hasn't been installed correctly. How do I reinstall it?

I ran an itunes update, but now itunes won't open as it says it hasn't been installed correctly. How do I reinstall it?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (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.

Did you actually download the installer from Apple or did you use Software Update. You can download the installer http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I would consider repairing permissions first using Disk Utility because something caused this to go wrong the first time. And of course make a backup of your whole library first. It shouldn't happen but some have complained about their libraries being wiped out by iTunes updates. Better safe...

ITunes 7.0.2 installs but now iTunes won't open

I hadn't upgraded to 7.0.2 after hearing all the problems it had, but now I have a new nano and I need to upgrade. I tried and iTunes wouldn't open at all. I uninstalled and then reinstalled and still no luck. I've browsed around on here to look for advice but no one seems to have had their questions answered.
Help?

Quicktime opens with no problem but when I try and open saved videos I only get audio and a green static-y screen.
interesting.
iTunes uses QuickTime for video and audio playback. if there's a problem with QuickTime, a common symptom is that itunes won't launch (although folks tend to get an error message under those circumstances).
so, let's see if the itunes launch failure is an unusual side effect of the cause of those QuickTime symptoms.
so even though you can't open your itunes, try running through the techniques from the following document:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows video playback perfomance issues
if you can get QuickTime to play videos properly after applying one or more of those techniques, try launching itunes again. does she launch properly under those circumstances?

I just updated itunes to 10.7 version, but now itunes won't open. i have Windows Vista

Hi:
My itunes stopped working when I installed the lates version which is 10.7. Itunes won't even come up now even when I connect my ipod. My ipod is the only device that I use with itunes. I have Windows Vista.
Please help me fix this problem! I AM NOT computer savvy, and I would prefer not to uninstall/re-install itunes and or quicktime. I have read many "solutions" on the internet, and people often say that uninstalling ect doesn't help. I just need the simplest solution because I barely know how to download music! Ha-ha!
Anyway, an answer would be appreciated, and sooner the better because I usually watch important podcasts that I am now missing.
Thank you!
Lindencole

Just updated iphone4 to ios5, now apps won't open, they blink once but won't run

After updating to ios5 on my iphone4 I cannot open apps, for instance, facebook, twitter, pandora, etc., when I touch them to open they blink once and the screen returns to normal. Safari and the like operate. ???

So i guess what's not working is the notification center. I swiped it and saw it but it's not showing the phone call or email that just came in. just the weather update! On my friend's phone who had upgraded she had a little bar across the top that was always there with current notifications. Mine doesn't do that. Any suggestions?

Just downloaded the new iTunes and now iTunes won't open at all. MacBook Pro user

Downloaded the new iTunes a few hours ago, and now after a few restarts, I get no response at all when clicking on itunes.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

Are you getting any error messages?

I updated to the latest iTunes, and now iTunes won't run at all

I downloaded the newest update, and now iTunes won't open at all. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and emptying my "temp" folder, but to no avail. Any ideas?

Well, I fiddled around with things more, and now it's running. I think what made it work was by going to All Programs, where I saw Apple Software Update. I ran that, and it seemed to do the trick. I hope this helps other people with the same problem.

System Reinstalled-now iTunes won't open

I downloaded the new iTunes yesterday and today had some computer problems and had to go reinstall my system from Monday. Now, iTunes won't open at all, I just keep getting the error "The iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occured." Any ideas of what I can do to fix this?

It did for me. And I wanted to thank the group for the advice!
I was sweating bullets when it was installing. Almost four thousand handpicked songs accumulated over four years. Names, Dates, Album Art, etc.
I just joined to say thanks for the help/guidance!!
