  • My i tunes won't open. i keep getting error7 (windows error 193) . contacted microsoft(thought it was a windows thing...not) have uninstalled itunes and everything related to it ,re installed and message still comes up. Help please,driving me crazy.

    help. my iTunes wont open. I keep getting the message error7 (windows error 193). contacted Microsoft they said contact iTunes support. I have uninstalled all iTunes componets and then reinstalled everything but message still comes up... its driving me crazy.

    If it's a Windows error, it's typically going to be a Microsoft problem. Uninstall any security software you have and if you have a restore point for your PC, you may want to restore your PC back to when iTunes was working normally. If none of those work you would need to contact Microsoft and demand help.

    Hey there Px13,
    It sounds like you are getting an error message after a recent iTunes update. I recommend the troubleshooting in the following article named:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    It will involve uninstalling iTunes and its associated applications. The links in the article will walk you through uninstalling them all.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,

  • Error7 (Windows error 126) After Installing iTunes

    I got the following error message when unsuccessfully trying to open iTunes:
    “The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem.”
    So following directions I uninstalled iTunes, downloaded the latest iTunes from the iTunes site and attempted to reinstall.  However, it would not reinstall and gave the following error message:
    “Service ‘Apple Mobile Device’ (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.”
    After I clicked ignore a dialog box came up saying iTunes had been successfully installed.  Underneath it was another dialog box with a big X in red  which said:
    “iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error7 (Windows error 126)
    Please let me know what to do.

    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.

  • Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. and 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)

    Hi!
    So i think i closed the wrong service at some point a few weeks back (apple mobile device) but iTunes remained working after that for another week. I then updated iTunes and i get the same  "Service ‘Apple Mobile Device’ (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." every time. If i click ignore, just so i can access iTunes with out syncing my iPod (touch 2nd gen) i then get 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)" when it has all installed. I don't understand what the problem is anymore as I have looked at other questions on the apple website, carried out the advice and it hasn't work. Any of them.
    Tings I have done:
    - Wiped all iTunes and Apple data from my computer (if you search for 'iTunes' or 'Apple' nothing comes up apart from applets from system code.
    - Attached iPod before iTunes install and updated drivers.
    - Installed iTunes as 'Run as administrator'
    - Uninstalled and re-installed the software nearly 20 times now and rebooted the computer in between everytime.
    Please someone help because i really need to get music on my ipod and i enjoy the ease of use of iTunes compared to spotify or Windows Media Player.

    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.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
    Regarding AMDS failures there is a hint in another thread that disabling the Windows Firewall before attempting to reinstall may help, otherwise take a look at the steps outlined in this post. Re: Can't install iTunes 12.1 on Windows 7 64-bit. I know they look a little daunting, but the process of generating the logs themselves isn't that hard to do. Extracting useful information from them is still a challenge but maybe something will leap out. If you want to post the log for the failed components for me to have a look at here or in the other thread please edit out any personal information, particularly your email address, first.

  • Help!!! iTunes install error "Apple Mobile Device Service Failed To Start". Error 7 (Windows Error 193)

    Help! Following a standard upgrade I got the error message "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows Error 193).
    I am running Windows 7 and installing again brings the message "Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services"
    I have uninstalled everything Apple, deleted all related folders and run as administrator numerous times with no luck.
    I had hoped that iTunes 12.1.2 would resolve the issue, unfortunately it failed to do so leaving me iTunes free which is driving me mad!
    Can anyone advise what else I can do to resolve the error and bring back iTunes?
    Thanks

  • Itunes install issues error 7 - Windows error 193

    Gents,
    I am using Windows 7, had iTunes for years no issues I couldn't solve myself, this time I need help.
    When the last update of iTunes came on, I tried to update my version but couldn't do the update (I don't remember the error message details, it just said that I had to re-install iTunes).
    So I cleared ITunes and all Apple related softwares from my computer (yes in the recommended order, and yes I rebooted in between) tried to re-installed (numerous times) and I always get the same error messageS:
    "Couldn't install ITunes Error 7 (Windows error 193)" and also "ITunes helper was not installed correctly"
    When running the installer I get the error message "Apple Mobile device failed to start", even if I ignore this message during the install, I am unable to open iTunes once the install is done. (the install goes through and says install finished).
    Note: I also tried to "fix" during the install, it didn't work.
    Context / Trials / Notes:
    - I tried to "repair" the Apple Mobile Device in programs (unsuccessfully)
    - I had 2 Apple Mobile Device services, so after a complete un-install and reboot, I manually (command prompt) remove the last service
    - In all my un-install attempts I went on the C: drive and made sure ALL folders were cleared of apple / iTunes traces. Delete ITunes setup file, empty the recycle bin of course, reboot etc)
    - Windows is up-to-date - No viruses (using Malwarebyte/ AVG & Spybot).
    I am at a loss, spent a lot of hours on the computer and on forums, but couldn't find the fix.
    I would greatly appreciate your help, this is getting on my nerves and I really need to change the music on my iphone ! (lol)
    thank you in advance

    Visit the iTunes download page. Click Download Now to download the iTunes installer. When prompted, click Save (instead of Run).

    If you have Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: Choose "Run as administrator."

  • Trying to install iTunes on Windows 7 to replace corrupted program.  After download, I get ERROR 7 (Windows Error 193) and iTunes won't work.

    I've had iTunes on my PC for years (Windows 7 now).  I ran an offered Apple iTunes update recently which seemed to mess up the system.  When trying to open iTunes, I get the error "Error 7 (Windows error 193)."  I've tried to repair iTunes, removed all iTunes files and install as new, etc.  Nothing works.  The same error message comes up.  Also, during installation, I get the message:
    Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
    ABORT     RETRY      IGNORE    
    I've tried RETRY and IGNORE with no success.
