Itunes not opening on windows 8

   Recently i just bought the Ipodtouch 4g like today and to have it work i have to connect it into itunes. I have itunes already installed into my laptop and has worked properly before, but it has choosen today to just not choose to open. There is no error message, just a few miliseconds of it loading and just completely not opening. I went over to the program to install it, clicked repair because it seemed about right to do so and after wait a good amount of time and finally clicking finish it still didn't work.
   After deciding that the itunes i have installed didn't work i went to the apple store to download it again. After another good amount of time the new itunes program (which looks slightly different then the one i had before with a silver plating) finished downloading. I agreed to the terms and conditions and waited, it still didn't load up and acts the same way as the old one. I need some help with this cause i didn't buy my new ipod touch just to look at it

There is no error message, just a few miliseconds of it loading and just completely not opening.
Can you check something for me please?
Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
Now try to launch iTunes.
Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

  • Itunes not opening after Windows Update

    I am aware that a post was made recently that was very similar to this one, but my problem is different enough that i deemed it necessary to make my own topic)
    Ever since I downloaded the new Itunes 10, everytime I have had a Windows update (I am using Windows 7), Itunes will not open. When i double click it, the mouse shows the "loading" cursor but the program does not work. This has happened two times before, and each time i had to uninstall Itunes as well as Quicktime, and then re-install both of them.
    I would like to be able to update Windows without Itunes dying on me, so are there any other ways to get it to work? Any help is very appreciated.

    oh my gawd
    Brallen91,
    thank you so SO much for providing that link!
    been stuck with that problem for days; tried uninstalling, removing, reinstalling, all the things. also deleted my preference files in ~/Library/Preferences/ like a thousand times etc.
    all I missed was that there also are two files in ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ too; I deleted those, restarted; woosh, iTunes is finally back! *dances through the entire house*
    thanks a ton man <3

  • ITunes not opening with windows 7

    iTunes has stopped working on my sony laptop. I have uninstaed all aspects and reloaded. When you click the shortcut or from main menu nothing happens.
    Whe you look at properties iTunes is now not compatiable !!!what is going on !
    Please please help

    Thanks again. That's got a few things ruled out.
    I'd like to check to see if the problem is systemwide, or if it is limited to a single Windows user account. (This is not a cure in itself, but may help narrow in on possible culprits.)
    Create a new Windows User account on the PC with full administrative rights. Log out of your normal account and log into the new account. (Don't use Fast User Switching to move between accounts.)
    Try launching Safari in the new user account. Does it launch properly in there, or do you get the same sort of behaviour as in the normal user account?

  • My itunes will not open in Windows Vista, I have tried everything suggested on the apple website, there is some type of plug-in issue..can someone please help me?

    Hello, 
    I need help! My itunes will not open in Windows Vista. I have tried everything suggested by the apple website. Even when I open itunes in safe mode, it still will not allow me to continue. I am assuming when it says something about Plug-ins that has something to do with the problem. Can anyone help me?

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. 

  • ITunes 10.6.0.40 will not open on Windows 7, no error messages come up. Have tried un-installing it and re-installing it many times.

    iTunes 10.6.0.40 will not open on Windows 7, no error messages come up. Have tried un-installing it and re-installing it many times. Please help.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    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 the 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.
    If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
    Or roll back to the previous build:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

  • Itunes wont open in windows 7 32 bit

    Itunes will not open in windows 7.  I get a message stating that Apple support is not loaded.

    Someone else suggested uninstalling Quicktime.  I did that, and it worked for my 64bit Windows 7.  Good luck!

  • "A Fix For iTUNES Not Opening"

    Well, after trying to figure out what was going on with iTunes not opening at all. It turns out that by default for some reason Windows Xp Firewall disables it from opening it. iTunes however is acting like a server for the simple fact that you exchange data between your computer and iTunes Store. Since there is no option to force this connection to happen, you have to get ZoneAlarm to do so. I’m using ZoneAlarm Suite Edition, but it also works with the free Edition of ZoneAlarm. So what ZoneAlarm does is actually enables the connection between your computers data (iTunes) and iTunes servers to connect.
    So first off make sure that you uninstall any Anti-Virus program so that only ZoneAlarm is installed/Running. Run ZoneAlarm and once that’s achieved you then go ahead and run iTunes. You will then be prompted twice, the first time it will prompt you about itunes.exe running as a program (Click Yes) and the second is very important since this is what enables iTunes to make a forced connection with iTunes servers (Click yes again). Once that’s done, you will see iTunes runs again. You can also uninstall ZoneAlarm and you will see that iTunes will still open even after ZoneAlarm is Uninstalled. I will see if I can make a .reg file so that you don’t have to install ZoneAlarm to make iTunes open again, but then again it wouldn’t hurt having ZoneAlarm installed since ZoneAlarm is a great tool.
    Here's A direct link to the Free ZoneAlarm: http://download.zonelabs.com/bin/free/1001cnet_zdnet/zlsSetup_61_737_000en.exe
    I’m sure this will work for anyone clicking the iTunes icon and getting nothing after a sec of the hour-glass disappearing and also seeing that iTunes.exe disappears in the Task Manager. So the chances of this working are high and once again since its free it wont hurt to try. Thank you again for your attention. And if anyone needs help let me know, and I would appreciated it if you can leave a reply and let me know how it turned out, weather or not iTunes opened. Thank You.-Michael R.

    Just A Correction. In The Line ....The first time it will prompt you about itunes.exe running as a program (Click Yes) and the second is very important since this is what enables iTunes to make a forced connection with iTunes servers (Click yes again)...
    Instead of "Click Yes" its supposed to be "Click Allow".
