Application Error (0xc0000005) when starting iTunes - Please help

I get the following Application Error message when I try to start iTunes:
"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the application."
I cannot think of anything that has changed on my PC, but something must have. It may be that this is the first time that I tried to open iTunes after rebooting following the upgrade to 7.2, but I certainly was able to open iTunes 7.2 before rebooting.
Any help or advice on how to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  • Error 2380 when starting burn please help

    This error has been driving me nuts for 4 months now. Is anyone else having the same problem.
    Here is what the CD dianogtic says:

    If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
    Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.
    Current user is administrator.
    Failed while scanning for CD / DVD drives, error 2380.
    Error while opening iTunes CD driver. This could be caused by a corrupted iTunes file or a conflict with other older CD burning applications, either currently installed or previously installed and uninstalled incorrectly.
    The last failed audio CD burn had error code -128(0xffffff80). It happened on drive on -128(0xffffff80) media at speed 0X.

    try this...i had a 4000 burning error, and this fixed it...I went under My Computer, then right clicked on the cd drive that I used to burn, go to properties, went under the auto play tab, selected the action to perform button for each individual category(dvd, blank cd, music cd) selected the no action icon for each category. Then went to the recording tab and unselected the enable recording selection. Now I can burn every time! If this fixes it for anyone else let me know!

    Can I uninstall existing iTunes without losing my media library?  and then install fresh to fix this problem?

  • Error messages when starting iTunes - 11556 and other. Who may help?

    Hi there,
    When starting iTunes i get to the iTunes U store. Trying to connect to the normal iTunes store, I get the following error message:
    "We could not complete your iTunes store request. The iTunes store is temporarly unavailable"
    This message I get since about one week. Further I tried to sign in and then I get the following message:
    "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occured (11556). Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    Network connection is working. iTunes connectivity diagnostics showed: all tests passed. I am using the latest version of iTunes (9.0.3.15). I tried to reinstall iTunes - did not help.
    I hope, anybody can help me.
    Regards,
    kunzro

    Hey Richard
    After I posted here I realized it was in the Windows/iTunes board. I reposted in the OS X/iTunes board along with the solution.
    I did more searching on Google and found that the store was disabled in parental controls in the iTunes Prefs. Go to iTunes prefs, click on Parental. See if iTunes store is disabled. I unchecked it and am all set. Someone mentioned that when iTunes is updated, this setting is the default.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes 10.5 beta: Error -50 when starting iTunes

    Hi all,
    When i try to start iTunes from the dock i always get the error -50.
    I'm also using OSX Lion 10.7 beta.
    I have the same problem with iTunes 10.3, only 10.2 works fine, but i already updated my iPhone to iOS 5 beta, so i'm not able to use 10.2 anymore.
    I've searched a lot of this problem on google and stuff but i only found solutions for this error while downloading a video or something else, but not when starting iTunes.
    Please can someone help me?

  • Error in installing Apple Application Support preventing installation of iTunes, please help

    I am trying to install iTunes for Windows (64 bit) but have been unsuccessful because I receive the following error message: "Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type+"win32",version="8.0.50727.6195"publicKeyToken="1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x80070BC9.
    After receiving this error message the installation continues, but iTunes is never able to launch because it says that Apple Application Support is not installed.  I have tried separately installing Apple Application Support only to receive the same error message as above.  Please advise on how I can install iTunes properly or what this error message means.

    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 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 Apple Application Support won't install normally.

  • IChat error when starting. PLEASE HELP!

    Hi
    I have had iChat for a while now. I have always had no troubles with the connection. But there is a problem. When I head to my Grandmothers house {which has a NetGear router} an error pop's up when I try signing on. It says " You have attempted to login too often in a short period of time." I always wait a few minutes and then try it again, but it still happens. This never happens when I sign on to iChat at my house, or my friends. I have tried the port number, settings, nothing works. *PLEASE HELP ME!*

  • Ipod error message when connected. Please help

    Windows XP
    I have had my 30 gigabyte ipod for almost a year and i've never had any problems with it before. But recently our area wasn't able to get broadband. So i was unable to download the recent ipod and itunes updates. I have done that now.. but i think something has affected my ipod. When i plug it into my computer nothing comes up on my ipod screen and i can continue browsing music etc.. i know this isn't supposed to happen. And on my computer an error message comes up saying "USB device not recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognise it. "
    Please help me!

    Okay. So i'll tell you the steps i have taken. I've uninstalled all the ipod updaters i had on my computer, eg 2006 and 2005.. and i reinstalled the latest version of itunes. I also went to device manager and all that but it only came up in the list at "unknown device" and i uninstalled the driver and tried to reinstall it but it came up saying it was an unknown device again. I tried right clicking on it and going "scan for hardware updates" but it told me the one i have installed is the nearest match. I also tried connecting my ipod to my computer in disc mode which did nothing. But i have discovered my ipod charges when i plug it in.. but the computer freezes on the black dos screen (as it always has for me when i turn the computer on with the ipod plugged in) and the ipod remains charging. but it seems if i plug it in after windows has loaded it's not even recognised.
    I'm sorry for making it so long but i really really need help

  • I keep getting an error message when starting iTunes

    When I start iTunes I get an error message that says "iTunes cannot run because some of its required filles are missing. Please reinstall iTunes" I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still getting the same error message. If I reboot my computer iTunes opens with no problem but if I close iTunes and try reopening it without rebooting I get the error message. I have the most recent version. My OS is Windows XP Pro SP3. Does anyone have an answer that can resolve this issue?

    Hey SDGardella,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are receiving error 499 when attempting to download purchases from the iTunes Store. The following resource outlines this error message:
    iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
    "Error 499"
    This alert occurs due to security software. Follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.

  • I get an error message when starting itunes

    Hi, i'v ehad this problem for a while .. i'm not a computer expert but i do my best. I get an error message when clicking to start iTunes ... can someone help me ! i don't want to lose my songs !

    top fixes are
    - turning off security software before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    In your case, if iTunes was working OK for a while and then mysteriously stopped, youve got a virus, I bet. Do the ewido malware scan.

    Hi, I would try to use the calendar to fallback on a system restore's point if you can, something hooked's up on your explorer.exe. Could be a malware too, depend what you do on your Windows 7.

  • Strange error message when starting ITunes, ITunes doesn't recognise devices for wifi sync

    I have other wifi problems with my IMac running Mountain Lion but this is the most annoying. When I start ITunes it doesn't recognise that I have my IPhone 5 and my IPad 2 sitting connected to the same wifi network and waiting to sync.

    Google search has explained to me that this is related to Bonjour but nothing further. I have done the 'usual' - booted in safe mode, repaired permissions, updated software, reinstalled Mountain Lion via Disc Recovery, restarted my modem etc.
    Before I just wipe the hard drive and start again from scratch, maybe there's something obvious I'm not doing? Every other device in the house (2 x Iphones, 2 x Ipads, 1 Apple TV, 2 wifi radios and 1 other IMac desktop) have no problems with the wifi network.

    I am having similar issue.  Getting these same 24 error messages everytime I start iTunes. Sharing is already off.
