ITunes 7.0.1.8 won't launch - no error messages

On 10/19/06 I upgraded to iTunes 7. The version on my system is 7.0.1.8. After installation and restart, I clicked on the icon and got a message that QuickTime wasn't up-to-date so I updated it. The on my system is 7.1.3.130. Since then I cannot launch iTunes. When I click on the icon the hourglass comes up for about 5 seconds and then disappears. I have gotten no error messages. I have used Repair on both iTunes and QT from the Add/Remove program screen.
I have read many of the postings here in the forum and am not certain what to do next. Could someone point me to course of action to take to uninstall/reinstall/downgrade, whatever, without screwing up the rest of my system?
I am running Win XP Pro, ZoneAlarm Security Suite, and as far as I know all my software is up-to-date.

OK, I took a deep breath and did the following:
-- using Add/Remove Programs, I removed all Apple products
-- I also removed the new Google toolbar just in case
-- I ran the Disk CleanUp system utility
-- I defragged the C drive
-- I restarted the PC
-- I went to Apple.com
-- I enabled pop-ups
-- I turned off the ZA Security Suite
-- I asked for the download of 7.0
-- It worked and iTunes loaded at the end
-- I restarted the PC w/ the Security back on
-- iTunes still worked after this test
I have to say I am hesitant about hooking up the iPod though. Maybe another day ... I hate messing w/ this stuff

HT5654 iTunes auto update downloaded and installed on 28/01/2014. iTunes now won't launch and error message states file MSVCR80.dll is missing. Tried uninstalling and downloading/installing again to no avail. Any clues?

iTunes auto-update dowloaded and installed on 28/01/2014. iTunes now won't launch and error message states file MSVCR80.dll is missing. Tried unistalling and downloading/installing again to no avail. Any clues?

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Itunes won't launch, no error message

I have an ipod shuffle and everything was fine till I downloaded the new version of itunes. Now itunes does not launch, it does not do anything atall, no error message, no hourglass, nothing.
Also, my ipod shuts down after playing for just 5 minutes. It seems like it is not getting charged even if I leave it in my computer for a while.
Quicktime launces without any problems.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

New Lightroom2 install won't launch properly - error message

I installed Lightroom 2 and filled in new upgrade serial number etc. then quit. Now if I try to launch the app I get an error message "An error occurred when attempting to change modules". This appears first and if I click OK the Lightroom2 window appears but with nothing in it (no side panels, no photos) and Clicking on any of the modules prompts the same error message. Can't do anything at all. If I try to open my previous Lightroom1 catalogue it seems to be doing something but then the same error message appears.
I've repaired Permissions, verified Disk, trashed Lightroom1 and 2 preferences, rebooted without login items but nothing has changed or resolved the problem. I had no issues running Lightroom1 on this Mac.
ncm
G4 PowerBook al 1.33 GHz/1.25Gb RAM
OSX 10.4.11
99.48Gb of disk space free out of 148.93Gb

Problem solved!!
I was checking the differences between my normal admin User account/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom contents and the one on the clean other admin User folder in the same place and noticed that on the one that works there are a slew of folders in there (Develop Presets, Export Presets, External Editor Presets, Filename Templates, Filter Presets, etc etc). On the main admin account, there was only one, the first. So it seemed the install on that account didn't load all the needed info. I simply copied the missing folders from the account that worked into the Public folder, switched to my main account and added those missing folders in the proper place. Voilà!. Now Lightroom launches normally and I don't get the dreaded missing modules alert. Hurrah!

New HD installed, GB won't launch no error message

I am working to fix my husband's computer. We bought it last Sept. and three weeks ago it had major issues. We sent it in to have the sleep sensor, logic board and hard drive all repaired and/or replaced (replacement done on the sleep sensor and HD, not sure what they did to the LB.) He is running a MacBook OSX 10.4.11. We also had the Geeks import his data from his old system to the new HD.
Every time we try to use GB, it bounces once and then stops - no error message, no launch, nothing but a note in the crash log. I have tried creating a test user as well as working with the permissions and deleting the preferences (or the reverse - I followed the instructions on Bullets and Bones...)
Called Tech support - they said to reinstall using Disc 2 - I don't want to lose all of his HD or even all the things he has worked so hard with up to now. But I am at a loss for anything else to try! My next step is back to the Genius bar to see what the deal is - he is very frustrated at not being able to use programs that had no trouble before.
Thanks in advance!

I've dumped the preferences list and reset the permissions to no avail. My only concern in doing a reinstall is whether he'll lose the audio files he's worked with up to now? Also, I'm confused because I was told to use the disc 2 for a reinstall but in putting in disk 2 there was only a text file saying to insert disc 1 to reinstall... I don't want to do anything rash here and have (many times!) greatly appreciated the value of the experience here on the Discussions boards - this is the first problem I've had where someone has not gone before me and I've been able to find an answer to fix my own problem. Thanks for sticking with me!

I updated to iTunes 12 and didn't like it. Followed advice to revert to 11.1. Now my iphone won't sync and error message says I need iTunes 11.2 or higher. Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do?

I updated to iTunes 12 and didn't like it. Followed advice to revert to 11.1. Now my iPhone 5 won't sync and error message says I need iTunes 11.2 or higher. Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do? Using iTunes 12 is not an option. Many features I used for audiobooks have disappeared.

The version immediately prior to 12 was 11.4.0.18. Here are direct download links from Apple's servers:
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)

Hi there owain11,
It looks like that particular error may be realted to a hardware issue. Take a look at the article below for more information.
Resolve iOS update and restore errors
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

After years of using iTunes on my G4 suddenly it won't open. Error message says "The file "iTunes Library" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". What do I do? I have been attempting to move my Library to a newer MacBook Pro.

Itunes will not launch, no error message (windows xp, itunes 10.7.0.21)
Yeah

OK, so i cannot enter into iTunes safe mode, whilst monitoring proccesses in the task manager I noticed that itunes will only stay open if i keep my fingers on shift and control-i dont know if that is worth mentioning- the proccess promptly ends after the release of the said keys, (I tried both the shift control keys on either side of the keyboard-same result) so i am stuck there.
P.S.
This version of iTunes had previously worked before, I uninstalled everything apple related after noticing how many processes (-id est-) /applications, were using up my memory.
afterwards I had need for iTunes, (i needed to wipe my iDevice) I reinstalled and this problem has arisen.

First try to resolve #2 by:
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
- Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem
If you can resolve #1 and still get same message for #1 then you have to restore the iPod like the message says.

Itunes won't install. Error message: Apple Application Support not found

Itunes won't install. Error message: Apple Application Support not found. What is the fix for this?

It is always these four updates that fail. I've tried downloading and installing them seperately from apple downloads. I've tried various recommended fixes, and nothing I can figure out works. Before these problems, itunes worked on the computer for a year.
Thank you again for wanting to help me.

HT1924 why won't itunes download on my pc. I get an error message saying not correct 64 bit download??????

why won't itunes download on my pc. I get an error message saying not a correct 64 bit download???

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.
