After successful installation of iTunes 10.6.1, iTunes will not open.  Tried complete uninstall and reinstall, still not working.  Cannot sync iPad or access iTunes at all.  Any suggestions?

After successfully installing the iTunes upgrade to 10.6.1, Now I cannot open and access itunes.  I have tried a complete uninstall and reinstall and it is still not working. I have looked through many support communities for answers.  I added an iPad 2 almost a year ago and all was fine until my upgrade to the "cloud services" and upgrade to new version.  I have been without iTunes on my PC for a month.  Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

I too have only recently encountered this problem. I have been able to burn disks before but it keeps making all these weird sounds. It might be a hardware problem but the fact that everything else that uses a disk works I doubt it.

  • Windows error: iTunes crashes (uninstall and reinstall does not work)

    Hello all.
    I (and another user) have had a problem with iTunes crashing when trying to open it. Windows just generates the typical vague error message that explains nothing as to what the problem is. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not work, and using the "Repair" option did not work either.
    This was the solution. Hope it works for you. Cheers.
    C ;o)
    Here are the steps, some might be redundant, but still follow them to try and get iTunes to work.
    1. *Extremely important* Close the QuickTime launcher in the tray on the right side of your Windows TaskBar (right-click on the blue QuickTime "Q" logo next to where you have the time and date and select "exit".) The QuickTime logo should disappear from the tray.
    2. Go to where your iTunes library folder is, copy it and put it elsewhere on yoour hard-drive. This is where you asked your iTunes to point to and keeps the full repository of the files sync'ed to your iPod. If you don't do this, you will have to re-create the full library of all the music and files you have put into iTunes.
    3. Unistall iTunes and reboot your PC.
    4. Go to c:\Program Files\Quicktime and delete this whole folder.
    5. Go to c:\Windows\System 32 and: delete the Quicktime FOLDER there; then (ii) scroll down and delete all other QuickTime related files (there should be 5-10 of them, I didn't count, some will have a name like QuickTMvr whatever).
    6. Empty Recycle Bin.
    7. Reboot your PC.
    8. Go back to Apple Website and download: iTunes, and (ii) QuickTime installation only (without iTunes).
    9. Install QuickTime FIRST (use newly downloaded version)! Check it works OK by opening it.
    10. Close QuickTime lanucher from tray, as explained above in step 1.
    11. Install iTunes (use the newly downloaded version).
    12. Open iTunes. If it opens fine (clap your hands and say "hurray", and actually I said out loud to my PC, "Please work" and it did - I don't know if this step helped at all. ;o) ), then close iTunes FIRST BEFORE DOING THE NEXT STEP. Go to where the new iTunes (and library) folder is, rename the new iTunes folder (as you might notice when/if you open iTunes, that it is all blank), and copy the old iTunes folder (from step 2) to the same location. Re-open iTunes. It should be the way it opened the last time.

    Btw.
    Don't forget that, from my experience, most iTunes errors comes from malfunctioning instances of QuickTime.

    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 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.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

  • My IPod is not showing up in my Itunes, I tried my phone as well and it is not coming up either.  I have tried everything including uninstalling and reinstalling.  It worked the other day but it is not working now.  Please somebody help me!!! What to do?

    Hello,
    Can someone please help me!?  I am trying to put music on my IPod and it was working the other day.  I can not get itunes to recognize my Ipod.  I have tried to unistall and reinstall Itunes.  I have tried all the steps on the site and can't get it to come up.  I tried my IPhone which was also showing up just the other day and it also is not showing in Itunes!   Please help me.  I need to be able to put music on my IPod for my work. 

    I have sorted it myself!!
    Ipod is now in the top right corner, last time I clicked on it, it ejected it but by clicking on the actual ipod icon then it brings up your ipod. I restored it to factory settings and synced all my music and it now works again. Hope this can help anyone who ends up with the same problem.

    Hi my itunes program crashes when i try to access the itunes store.  Have tried to uninstall and reinstall to no avail.

    Me too - running iTunes 10.5.3 on Windows 7.  Will allow me to sign in to iTunes, download app updates and then if I either close iTunes or try to sign out of my iTunes account it all freezes.  So frustrating, because my understanding is that iTunes saves the library file when exiting.  So, everytime I update apps I lose all the downloads.

    What I suggest you do here is to use Adobe's uninstaller tool to uninstall Flash first of all: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then reboot, go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and reinstall it.
    I notice too that you have an outdated version of Shockwave For Director. You can update that via http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/

  • HT1222 I have Windows 7. The latest iTunes update messed it up.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall iTunes. Now, it won't reinstall (64-bit).  Error pops up:  missing MSVCR80.dll.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    At the last iTunes update about a week or so ago, my iTunes quit working.   I do not remember the error at the time.  I unistalled iTunes and attempted to reinstall.   About 95% in the installation, there is an error.  I cannot get by it.  If I choose to "ignore" the issue, it says iTunes is installed.  However, when I try to open iTunes the error:   "The program cannot start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."   I've tried this multiple times with no success.   Any suggestions?   Thank you.

    I have a Toshiba Satelite laptop.  Windows 7.  Need iTunes 64-bit.

    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.

  • Just installed itunes but when i try to open it this error message pops up: "apple application support required." I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing works

    Just installed itunes but when i try to open it this error message pops up: "apple application required" then it suggests uninstalling and reinstalling which i've done a few times but nothing works

    When you say you have tried everything, it would help if you told us what you have tried to avoid duplication.
    When you installed iTunes did you get any error messages?
    Anyway, on the face of it it may be worth trying a separate install of Apple application support.
    Uninstall iTunes again. Now open Apple Software update, assuming it is working.
    It should offer to download iTunes. Don't do it yet, go to the Tools menu and select Download only.
    Then download iTunes. Then go to the tools menu again and select Open download folder and you should see a collection of six files.
    Before going on, can you get to this stage OK?
    One further thing I would like you to check, are you ahving any problems with Windows updates? Could you check in Windows Update to see if there are any failures.

  • Re Installing Flash CS6 issues. It installs, but I can't use the program properly. I've uninstalled and reinstalled many times

    Hi,
    I accidentally uninstalled Flash CS6. When I reinstalled it (using a download found here on the Adobe website: Download CS6 products) I was unable to move the window around my screen. There was no window "boarder", it was only a white box that I couldn't move from the upper left corner. Also there were no toolbars. My first thought was to check in the Window options, but despite my clicking on the various options nothing popped up. I also tried changing the window display options on my computer, thinking that maybe the window header was stuck somewhere "off screen" in a place I couldn't see. I also tried toggling with the "paste board" option in flash. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled flash CS multiple times, and each time its always the same.
    This is really weird, I think I've tried practically everything. I just really want to talk to Adobe on the phone but they don't let you do that.
    Here's a screenshot of what my screen looks like
    Please help me!!!

    Just hangs until i kill process with task manager. Have uninstalled and reinstalled. Any suggestions? I don't want to upgrade to CC as I hate subscription services and often have internet connection services interuppted.

    Which operating system are you using?
    Resetting the photoshop preferences might cure the problem.
    Press and hold down the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys down just after starting the launch of photoshop 7
    (Shift-Command-Option on a mac)
    Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop settings file
