ITunes won't start after update

Hi,
I just upgraded my ITunes using the normal Apple update process when I was prompted - and now I-Tunes won't start at all.
I can see the ITunes.exe start in Windows Task Manager....then it just shuts down again.
Any ideas ?

I tried another solution :
1. Un-install I-Tunes
2. In-install Bonjour
3. Reboot
4. Install latest I-Tunes
This seems to have fixed the problem.
So it looks like BONJOUR IS THE PROBLEM.

  • ITunes won't start after update and restore

    I have update iTunes to the latest version yesterday. Up to her everything is fine. Due to ther issues I had to go back to the Windows RESTORE point previous to the iTune installation.
    When I start iTunes I get the following pop-up: "iTunes cannot runbecause some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes".
    I do that and when iTunes try to connect to the store it shows broken links and the whole thing hangs.
    I have tried to unistall iTunes, but it does not help at all. This means that I do not have connection to iPod. I cannot believe that I have to re-install all my PC bcause of this

  • ITunes won't open after update; MacBook Pro, Mac OSX 10.6.8, iTunes version 11.1.5

    iTunes won't open after update - help, please; MacBook Pro, Mac OSX 10.6.8, iTunes version 11.1.5.

    i had a problem similar to yours and better yet, i have the fix for it. i downloaded maverick 4 months ago and was without itunes ever since. all itunes icon did was bounce. itunes would never open and whats more, is when i would try to update it, i would get a "thank you for downloading itunes!" page , but the download would never work. so i scoured the net for solves. nothing that worked. <4 months later> then last night i took a new approach. i decided even though maverick would not allow me to uninstall itunes, i would find a way to uninstall itunes. then i would reinstall back to 11.1.5 i was successful and heres what i did.
    step one-
    Back up your iTunes Library.itl file, found under ~/Music/iTunes
    (even tho i didnt, i only had 3 artists in there at the time. and they didnt get erased but i advise you back up just in case.)
    step two-
    download itunes 10.7 from apple. i used this link Download it from Apple here
    (i pulled the link from Aarons website (awesometast.com). you download 10.7 however you want but i used the link above and have had no issues).
    although im not sure you need to do this step ( you may be able to download 11.1.5 itunes without 10.7, i did because i was following intructions from http://awesometoast.com/downgrading-to-itunes-10-7-from-itunes-11-on-osx/
    step 3-
    open Terminal
    step 4-
    enter in these 3 commands hitting return after each line. 1st line nothing seems to happen, 2nd line nothing seems to happen and 3rd line gives you a warning and requires password to continue. when i did it, my password didnt appear as i entered it and i hit return without looking, so i entered it in again, although im not sure i had to the 2nd time.
    killall iTunes
    killall "iTunes Helper"
    sudo rm -rf /Applications/iTunes.app/
    step 5-
    drag off and dump the itunes icon (which now has the ? shadow in it) off your dock.
    step 6-
    install 10.7 itunes you downloaded earlier. (not sure if this part is neccesary. you may be able to just download 11.1.5 but i downloaded 10.7 because i was following Aarons steps.) itunes now works.
    step 7-
    go to apple and update to 11.1.5 itunes. install it. open it and you have itunes 11.1.5 in perfect working order. assuming you have a decent internet speed for the downloads, the whole process takes very little time.
    with those steps above, you can solve itunes just bouncing and not launching issues and also the "thank you for downloading" and nothing downloads issue. enjoy. also i would like to give a shout out to http://awesometoast.com and thank Aaron for the knowledge that enabled me to get itunes back into my life.

  • Itunes won't open after update to 11

    I've been running Itunes 10 on my macbook pro (Snow Leopard) until today when I updated to 11.  The update appeared to complete successfully (no error messages).  But afterwards when I try to open iTunes it immediately exits (with no user-facing message) and Console shows a message like this:
    12/3/13 1:36:23 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[143] com.apple.console ([0x0-0xdd0dd].com.apple.iTunes[1045]) Exited with exit code: 1
    Some troubleshooting steps I've already tried:
    Same thing happens if I try to start itunes in "safe mode".
    Same thing happens if I try to start itunes from a different user account.
    I've repaired permissions.
    I've restarted a few times since installing Itunes and since repairing permissions.
    Quicktime starts fine.
    I'm not particularly interested in version 11 features, I'd be happy to have version 10 back -- or a working version 11.
    But what I really really don't want is to lose any library information, playlists, play counts, ratings, etc.  I want to be quite careful not to lose any of those. 
    One thing that looks suspicious to me is that it looks like in some way version 10 is still installed.  At the end of the install, installd wrote both of these lines to the log in the same second:
    12/3/13 11:39:10 AM installd[6928] install Installed "iTunes" (11.1.3)
    12/3/13 11:39:10 AM installd[6928] install Installed "iTunes" (10.6.3)
    Also if I open Software Update, under "Installed Software" it also shows both versions:
    Thanks!

  • ITunes won't start after reinstalls and iPhone problems

    last time I think I clicked Never Register on iTunes after plugging my iphone,downloaded some podcasts to my phone,everything seems alright before that,but then my iphone won't sync properly with itunes...
    iTunes keeps saying Syncing Iphone (sometimes it stops,but it doesnt say Sync is complete,on the left side it's still syncing) but after a while my iPhone goes back to its normal state (Slide to unlock,not to cancel) after I cancelled a sync (it took more than 2 hours,that's why I cancelled it,after the cancellation it became even more messed up)...
    Deleted the podcasts and deauthorized iTunes store,still doesnt work.
    What's the solution to sync my iphone normally again??
    I did reboot on both my iphone and PC and they don't work,
    I'm using Vista 32bit and Iphone 3G 2.2.1
    I tried updating iTunes to 8,1,now everytime I connect my phone via usb,iTunes will crash....removed iTunes and installed previous versions including 8.01 and 8.02...still not working
    after I installed 8.0,iTunes won't even open...
    removed itunes and installed other versions including 8.1 again,they won't even open even after I completely removed iTunes & quicktime and used windows install cleanup...,reboot many times,deleted Temp folder....still doesnt work...
    but the Itunes and iTunes helper processes are there on the task manager,I cant even kill them
    sorry,I don't know where to post this...

  • Ipad won't start after update 8.2

    after updating my ipad it won't work just stuck on the start screen (the one with the white apple logo) .. i had tried to restart it and re install the update from itunes still the same problem ..

  • Itunes won´t start after upgrading to the latest version....

    Hello everyone. After updating to the latest version of itunes it won´t start.I get the message itunes will be shut down due to the data execution prevention. After i followed the troubleshooting guide from windows to shut down the dep for itunes i get the message: This program cannot run without dep. pls help

    Quicktime doesn´t work properly. The program will be shut down. You´ll be noticed when a solution is available
    Many thanks.
    That and the iTunes DEP error suggest that some application (other than QuickTime itself) has stashed old QuickTime componentry down in your system files.
    So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    *If you have a 32-bit version of Windows,* open the "System32" folder.
    *If you have a 64-bit version of Windows,* open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Itunes will not start after updating to most recent version...

    I updated itunes this evening to load up ios4 on my iphone. After updating, I rebooted and my screen resolution went from 1280 x 1024 to 800 x 600. Then I got a message saying I needed to restart bonjour, so I restarted it. Then an itunes error message came up saying itunes needed a certain screen resolution setting to function correctly (I had already reset it so I thought no more on it).
    I can't start itunes now, every time I try I get that stupid "report to microsoft" message. I re-installed it and it keeps coming up. My head is melted, any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks!

    That sounds as if either iTunes or BonJour has been set to run in an old-fashioned display mode. (Lord knows what caused it to happen, though.)
    Let's try checking on iTunes first.
    Try following the instructions in the following document, with the one change being that when you get to *step 8,* make sure that *no options whatsoever* are checked in the compatibility mode tab.
    Will iTunes launch without the error now?
    If you're still getting the error, could you let us know which particular Windows OS you're running? (It sounds like you've got XP, but I thought I'd better doublecheck.)

  • ITunes won't work after updating to iOS 8.3

    After updating to iOS 8.3 my iTunes App on my iPhone 6 Plus and iPad Air now both don't work.
    If I go to play an sample of a song, the little square box with the cover on spins around and then spins back around and no music will play.  I'm all so unable to play any music that I've already purchased via iTunes on my iOS devices.
    Any comments on what could be causing this?
    All so, on another note.  My friend has just updated to IOS 8.3 and he just noticed that he no longer even has the iTunes App on his iPhone 5.
    Thanks.

    After posting this, I've since found out that my iOS iTunes App on my iPhone 6 Plus works all OK when on WiFi, it just won't work when on the data/3/4G connection.
    Anybody else having this same issue since updating to iOS 8.3?

  • Ipad won't start after updating to ios 8.1.3

    My iPad was working without issue prior to updating to IOS 8.1.3 yesterday. After updating, not only would the ipad not start, it produced intermittent tones. The tone heard when device is plugged into an outlet for charging.
    I attempted to turn the device off but it would not respond. Afterwards, a reboot was attempted numerous times by holding the home and sleep buttons down simultaneously. Once the Apple logo appeared the buttons were released, the logo disappeared but the device remained dormant.
    While connected to iTunes and emitting the connection tones, periodically the splash screen would appear momentarily then turn off. I was able to swipe the screen on one of these occasions. The device worked properly until it was turned off after use at which time it would not turn on again and remains unable to turn on. It does not respond to attempts to turn it off or rebooting.
    Prior to the update I did backup the device in case something like this would occur. Since I appear to have exhausted all my options to get the device to work, I feel the only remaining option is to restore it to factory default. I would appreciate advice from anyone who may either have experienced this same issue and found a resolution, or can provide thoughts on how I should proceed please.
    If I proceed with a restore to factory default followed by a restore of the most recent backup, will I lose any data during this process? This will be my first time to erase a device so any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I would, of course, prefer an alternative resolution. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hello, Tony.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that your iPad no long starts after an update and you have a backup for your iPad.  It sounds like you will need to restore the device to factory and then will have the option to access your backup after the restore complete.  The only information that should be missing would be after the backup was completed until the device is restored.  I have included the steps for going through this process in the articles below.    
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes

  • [SOLVED] GDM/Gnome won't start after update

    Today after I run pacman -Suy, GDM/Gnome won't start anymore after reboot. The error message I get after GDM starts is:
    Oh no! Something has gone wrong.
    A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please contact a system administrator
    Does anyone have any idea what happened and how can I recover the system?
    Here is the complete log for the update:
    http://bpaste.net/show/209520/
    Here is the journalctl -u gdm log:

    And here is the /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
    http://bpaste.net/show/209549/
    I can't imagine any other log file that might help figure out what happened, let me know if there's anything else.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
    Edit: I stopped gdm, created a ~/.xinitrc and could successfully start Gnome with startx. The problem remains with GDM.

    I'm not sure my issue is really the same one, but am hoping for some guidance here if possible.  Trying to start GDM gives me the same error message/screen.  After tdm fails I can switch to a console,
    sudo systemctl stop gdm.service
    then
    sudo systemctl start lightdm.service
    and lightdm starts fine.  However, trying to log in to gnome-session gives me the very same error as I had with GDM.  I can log into XFCE just fine.  Attempting to start gnome-ession via startx also gives me the error screen.  Does anyone know how I can diagnose the problem?  Thanks,

  • ITunes won't start after upgrading to v9 on WinXP

    I dutifully upgraded to iTunes 9, and now it won't start. It attempts to start, and I get a few moments of the hourglass icon. And the Task Manager shows the iTunes process is running. But the UI never appears. I tried deleting via the control panel and reinstalling but same problem. Never had a problem before - this is aggravating since I don't have access to my library and there doesn't seem to be a way to downgrade back to v8. I turned off (actually deinstalled) Norton but that didn't help. Tried disabling a bunch of start up processes at boot time and that didn't help either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    I had a similar issue. After doing the upgrade, tried to open iTunes & got an error message saying that I needed the latest Quicktime version and telling me to uninstall and reinstall iTunes. Doing so resulted in the same error message.
    Per a suggestion in another thread here, I repaired Quicktime (control panel- add/remove programs- Quicktime- repair). This disappeared iTunes but once I reinstalled it the problem went away.

  • Blackberry 9220 won't start after updating OS

    My blackberry 9220 was perfectly working for the past 8months, after finding out that there's a new update for os, i tried updating mine. I fell asleep while updating my os that i didnt notice if the os was successfully updated bt wen i woke up in the middle of the night, my phone won't start. When i tried charging it, the red led light lights up then the initial screen where you see the "blackberry" word and load bar below it starts bt only flashes and turns off. It keeps repeating. I tried going to a phone technician but they said they cannot reformat my phone because it doesn't turn on or completely turn on in the first place.. What should i do? Please help me.
