  • Can not open itunes please help!!!

    Is any one getting this error message, " Quicktime failed to initialize ( Error-2096) Quicktime is required to run itunes. Please uninstall itunes, then install itunes agian)
    Now mind you Quick time starts up fine, I have no issues with that, but when I click on the itunes tab that error comes up. I have done everything I know but still can not get itunes to work, I have uninstalled quicktime and itunes and reinstalled it and still nothing, I am running windows XP Media Center Edition, service pack 3. Please some one help me, thank you.

    Even though the following article is about the -2096 when launching the QuickTime Player, I'd start with it for your iTunes as well:
    [Error -2096 message when opening QuickTime for Windows in Compatibility Mode|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1875]
    (If you do end up having to check the iTunes.exe compatibility mode tab too, be sure that no boxes in that tab are checked, not just the compatibility mode tab itself.)

  • Can't install itunes, PLEASE Help

    Hello! first of all thanks for clicking on this and having a look at my issue.
    I have a problem with downloading itunes, it goes all through the installation gets to the end and comes up with this nonsense error message anyone know what this is about? please help, thanks!

    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 the 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.

  • TS1717 I am unable to launch iTunes, when I double-click on the icon, a prompt comes up saying, "iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissons for this folder."  This issue occurred out of the blue!  How do I correct this?

    I don't know what suddenly caused this.  I haven't installed anything weird or obscure, I've kept up with all of the normal updates for Windows, my anti-virus, and other normal software (Adobe, Apple products, Steam).  So all I did today was double-clicked on the iTunes icon, and the prompt that I supplied kept popping up.  I rebooted my computer, I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and all of my Apple products (Quicktime, Safari).  But nothing seems to be working.
    I could sure use some much appreciated assistance!!!  Thank you!

    I did what I could out of the information provided, however there was quite a bit of difference between the XP format and Windows 7.  After trying what I could, I was still receiving the same error message.  Besides trying to fix this issue, I'm also trying to figure out how this whole thing started to begin with.

  • Can't open itunes, PLEASE HELP!

    When I try to open my iTunes this is the message that I get. I have been having horrible times with this program. I haven't been able to get it to work at all and have tried everything. I also haven't been getting responses for help. Please help me.
    It will not let me repair it, uninstall it or change it. I am totally locked out of iTunes.

  • Problem launching iTunes PLEASE HELP!!!

    hi, this is my first time with an ipod and i haven't had difficulties until now. When ever i try to launch iTunes, there is an error and it says:
    iTunes cannot run because it has detected a promblem with your audio configuration.
    i tried to re-install iTunes and nothing happened =(
    any suggestions?!
    thank you soo much in advance

    I wonder if you followed the steps in this article

    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698

  • Blank screen in itunes store-please help im not very technical and when i click on my itunes app the screen is blank how can i fix this please?

    Blank screen in itunes store-please help im not very technical and when i click on my itunes app the screen is blank how can i fix this please?

    See if any of the following fix it.
    Try logging out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'Sign Out' on the popup and then log back in.
    If that doesn't fix it then try closing the iTunes store app via the phone's multitasking bar and see if it works properly when you open the app : double-click the home button to open the taskbar and then swipe or drag iTunes from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and the click the home button to close the taskbar.
    A third thing to try is a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

    Does the person who gave it to you still have the receipt ?
