Can't access iTunes

Everytime I try to open iTunes on my computer, I receive an error message stating, "The application could not be completed. An unexpected error occured (error code -600)". How can I fix the problem and access my music files?

I backed up iTunes from external HDD (dedicated backup HDD) after receiving so many missing files errors in iTunes. (I had cleaned out duplicates previous to this) So, now, after restoring all itunes music, I get the error message upon attempting to open iTunes: " The folder "iTunes" is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder'."
I have no way to solve this and need help from someone who does. (Please!)

  • After upgrading to 11.0.5.5 can't access iTunes store. Temprorarily unavailable all the time.

    After upgrading to 11.0.5.5 can't access iTunes store. Temprorarily unavailable all the time. Nothing helps, tried to flash the DNS. Nothing.....

    Same issue.  I emailed apple and they had me call apple.  Not really any help.  Did all the troubleshooting listed and to have further help diagnosing problems it isn't free.  I explained to the rep that I have seen others having same issues - he didn't know anything about.  This is first time I have had problems.  I can't even purchase song on my PC but can on my iphone.  I just would like to be able to access my account.  Afraid to sign out of itunes in case I can't even get to my library etc. 

  • Hi, I can't seem to get my ipod 32gb 4th gen to sync with itunes. It's brand new, but everytime I plug it in it says can't access Itunes store and nothing else happens. I enabled my firewall to allow itunes but it still can't access it. Please help.

    If you look at the feed, and look at the entry 'The end to an exciting field season in Aulavik National Park' you will see the line:
    <pubDateFri, 29 Jul 2011 04:00:00 GMT</pubDate>
    You have not closed the 'pubdate' tag - there should be a '>' as the 9th character. Because the tag has been left open, it invalidates everything which follows it, and thus the entire feed. iTunes therefore cannot read it, which is why the Store has not updated. Add the '>' and republish, and all should be well.
    It's always worth checking your feed by subscribing manually, from the 'Advanced' menu, or by clicking the 'subscribe free' button on the Store page (both do the same thing) - if you can subscribe to the feed it should be OK.

  • On Windows 7 PC, got the "upgrade iTunes" notice, said sure, but the upgrade failed, now I can't access iTunes "invalid permissions"

    On Windows 7 PC, got the "upgrade iTunes" notice this morning, said sure, but the upgrade failed, now I can't access iTunes "invalid permissions"
    I wasn't paying attention so I don't know the precise error I got on the upgrade failure.
    All other iTunes upgrades have been fine...no brainers.  Done several on this W7 PC.
    If I re-download and install a fresh iTunes I assume I will lose my library...true?  Can I find and save off my library so I don't have to "discover" all my music which is scattered all over the PC and a 1T attached USB drive.
    Or is there some way to get the iTunes upgrade to successfully restart and install correctly?
    Help!

    The following Knowledge Base article provides some recomendations for troubleshooting:

    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.

  • I have just upgraded to 10.8 on my macbook pro and now I can't access itunes, videos and there is no sound - anyone help?

    I have just upgraded to 10.8 on my macbook pro and now I can't access itunes, videos and there is no sound - anyone help?
    It is an old macbook pro probably 6yo with the back lit keys - not under applecare anymore obviously. I downloaded the upgrade last night which took quite a while longer than it should have.
    Anyone else experienced this and can suggest something? many thanks Jo

    Run Software Update, wait till all the updates have finished downloading then restart the mac.

    I live in the US but am in Paris for three months. I can't access itunes. I tried reinstalling but got this error: Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." I followed the Apple troubleshooting advice--delete temp files, uninstall itunes, shut down computer, restart, reinstall.  What's the problem and, especially, what's the fix? Walter Cohen

    I, too am having the same issues as above like the many others. For days i have been trying to uninstall reinstall as per troubleshooting but to no avail.Apple, you need to fix this!

  • HT1923 I have windows 8.01 OS. pushed the itunes update and now I can't access itunes at all. Error 7 error 127. Have tried repairing. Uninstalling and reinstal. Nothing is working. And worst is I can't seem to contact anyone at apple to get help

    My OS is windows 8.1. Today when going onto itunes it asked me to update to 11.something so I dd. Now I can't access itunes at all. Keep getting an error message. error 127. I've tried repairing. Uninstalling and re installing. Can't seem to contact anyone at apple to get support - just keep going around and arond on their contact page.

    Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
    If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    This is what iTunesStoreSupport wrote:
    the iTunes Store is functioning and accepting connections, which indicates that the issue is related to your internet connection, local network, or your local computer itself. This article outlines some of the likely culprits:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    Meanwhile, certain types of software can affect the way a computer sends and receives information from the Internet. Here are a few examples of these types of software:
    - Firewalls
    - Web accelerators
    - Ad filters
    - Virus protection software
    If you have any of this kind of software installed on your computer, Franka, you will need to configure each of the applications to allow your internet connection to access iTunes freely. For instructions, please refer to the documentation that came with that software, or contact the software's manufacturer. You'll need to configure the software to allow these domains to send and receive data from the Internet freely:
    itunes.apple.com
    ax.itunes.apple.com
    Moving on, for assistance in configuring your firewall or accelerator software, you may need to contact the manufacturer or your Internet service provider (ISP). When contacting their support representatives, it may be useful to have the following information:

Apple Support Communities are another source of information about iTunes, where everyone from new users to professionals can interact and share their knowledge and experiences.
