Can't run Itunes anymore...

I have been using Itunes for 3 months. I had 2 hard drives, the C being for the softwares (that's where Itunes was installed) and the D for the data (that's where I put Itunes folder : my music). However, I had to remove the D hard drive and now, I can't open Itunes anymore, I can't uninstall Itunes and I can't even re-install it. Always the same error message : can't find the D drive. Although I have a My mucic with my Itunes librairy on the C drive, it's not working... please help me!

First make backup copies of these four files:
1) The Library database file: ‘iTunes Library.itl’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
2) The Library XML file: ‘iTunes Music Library.xml’ located in the ‘iTunes’ folder
3 & 4) The two iTunes.pref files
-- C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
-- C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer Inc\iTunes.pref
Then delete them all from their original locations. Reboot the PC and start iTunes. Do not allow iTunes to re-scan your PC for music files. You should end up with a 'blank' Library. Close iTunes. Then proceed to uninstall iTunes as described below.

(Compiled from the collective wisdom of toonz and Da Gopha)
If you want to guarantee a successful upgrade and be proactive about minimizing potential install issues, do the following:
1. Completely Backup your music and iTunes library files.
2. Virus check / spyware scan your machine. Use several quality programs to completely scan your PC – all drives. EWIDO seems to be one used by many here. Free at: http://www.ewido.net/en/
3. Completely remove / uninstall the current version of iTunes and QuickTime from your system.....
3a. - Turn off all security software such as Norton, McAfee, SpySweepers, any TSRs, etc. (exit via the system tray)
3b. - Do a Stepwise clean uninstallation of iTunes
3c. - Then download and install the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility
.....And make sure iTunes is really gone.
4. Delete the contents of your temp folder: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp
5. Reboot the PC
6. Turn off all security software such as Norton, McAfee, SpySweepers, any TSRs, etc. (exit via the system tray)
7. Start with the QuickTime standalone installer. Download it and save it to your hard drive. Then run it from the PC (not directly from on-line)
8. Reboot the PC
9. Turn off all security software such as Norton, McAfee, SpySweepers, any TSRs, etc. (exit via the system tray)
10. Completely download the latest iTunes Installer. Save it to your PC. Then run it from the saved location of your PC
11. Reboot the PC
12. Open iTunes and enjoy
The majority of problems out there on the discussion boards are caused by viruses or other system corruption — sometimes self-inflicted by the user (i.e. - people who turn off necessary Windows services) — or out of date drivers. You may want to consider this if your PC falls into one of these categories.

HT1199 Can I run iTunes and Apps on my Windows 7 computer or do I need an ipad or iphone ?

Can I run ITunes and Apps on my Windows7 computer. So far the one App I have downloaded just won't run. Do I need an iPad or IPhone to run these programmes?

There is an iTunes on the idevices, just a Store effectvily.
There is an iTunes on a PC and Mac, which is the Library handler, and connects to the iDevices for sync and backup.
The Apps that you download for iDevices are downloaded with "Appstore" on that iDevice itself, or downloaded on the Mac or PC with iTunes for transferring to the iDevice.
That apps will only run on the iDevice.
For Window s7 and Windows 8 there has just been released a new iTunes version 11.

My PowerBook G4 can't run iTunes 10.5.3. It says I need QuickTime 7.5.5, which I can't download. I'm running OS 10.5.8.

My PowerBook G4 can't run iTunes 10.5.3. It says I need QuickTime 7.5.5, which I can't download. I'm running OS 10.5.8.

I had the same problem but I resolve the issue by reloading quicktime. There is a quicktime 7.5.5 for os 10.5.8, I download it from apple and install it. After it was installed, itune launched by itself with no problems. Hope it works for you.

Kdemod3: can't run KPDF anymore

After I did the most recent "pacman -Syu", I can't run KPDF anymore (the only PDF reader I know that has continuous page view).
It says "unable to find kpdf part". Also, sometimes (I think when opening kpdf from konqueror), it says libjpeg.so.62 can't be opened.
How can I run kpdf?

I think that KDE3(mod) can't be rebuilt on libjpeg7, so they use this

Is it possible to have libjpg 7 and 6 at the same time?
EDIT: appearantly doing "ln -s /usr/lib/libjpeg.so /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62" was enough and fixed my problem!
I didn't even need to install anything else, I guess KPDF is comfortable enough with just thinking that it's version 6.
Thanks for the link.

If you have a 1G (first generation) iPod touch then it can only go to iOS 3.1.3. To identify yours:

If you need a higher iOS, you will have to get a newer model iPod.

Can we run itunes as a service on windows

Can we run itunes as a service? If not we really need the dev team to step up and fix it.
With the new option for sync over wifi we really need a service that runs in the background of our home pc's for the sync. As you know this takes place everytime you apply power, or when you hit the sync now button. So, unless we run itunes in its fullest all the time we can't count on the wifi sync to do what it is designed for. Running itunes eats up computer resources that some people need when doing school work, job work, and other important things. So please build a new version of itunes that allows it to run in the background and serve as a sync service.
Anyway this might be the wrong place for a suggestion but hopefully someone will get it to the right people.

Take a look at something called java service wrapper ,

Alexandria software used to support a simpler app called JavaService... google for that maybe if the above is too much.

Can't run iTunes, Apple Application Support program missing.

Can't run iTunes, Apple Application Support program missing. It's a brand new computer, never had iTunes installed. I've attempted 16 installs, each time uninstalling the previous install and verifying no Apple software installed before trying again; I've also been using different browsers, still no luck. Windows 7, 64 bit.

Try downloading 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and unpack the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file into its components then try installing them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe or iCloud.msi). AAS might not install right now, but you may get a more useful error message as to why not, or it might install once the other components have been installed.

Sorry Glen, but there is not. And you don't have to upgrade to 10.6 (Snow Leopard). You need at a minimum of 10.5.8 (Leopard).

Can't run iTunes unless ipod connected

I'm running itunes version 7.3.2.6. Until recently I only used ITunes to put a few CD's onto iIpod. I now find that I can't run ITunes unless the ipod is connected. Is this normal?
If I try to run iTunes without the ipod connected I get error message "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed".
Tried upgrading to V7.5 but it won't install and I receive error message "The older version of Apple Software Update cannot be removed".
Tried uninstalling manually but no joy there.
Tried using the Windows Installer CleanUp utility but that leaves lots of files in the iTunes and QuickTime folders and some can't be deleted as they are apparently in use by another program.
Can anyone help?

+"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.+
Okay. That's consistent with the other messages.
Given that there's been a problem with both the itunes and Apple Software Update msi's, there may also be an issue with the QuickTime msi (which hasn't had the opportunity to surface yet).
So let's try the following procedure with that one.
launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes and/or QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes or QuickTime program files:
(1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
(2) Open the Program Files folder.
(3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
(4) Right-click the QuickTime folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. (Note: This folder may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
(5) Delete the QuickTime and QuicktimeVR files located in the C:\Windows\system32\ folder. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue. (Note: These files may have already been deleted if QuickTime was successfully removed using Add/Remove Programs earlier.)
(6) Right-click on the Recycle Bin and on the shortcut menu, click Empty Recycle Bin.
(7) Restart your computer.
Does an itunes install go through now?
*If things don't go well ...*
... another couple of questions:
If you get an error message when trying to remove a folder, can let us know precisely what it says? (Mention the file it cites.)
If there were no iTunes or QuickTime entries showing in CleanUp, were there any mysterious blank lines in the entries (or lines containing just version numbers, not names of software)?

Can"t run iTunes after update of OSX 10.9.3

Just updated my OS to OSX10.9.3 and my Safari browser to 7.0.4 and now I can't run iTunes! Keep getting notice that it needs 64 bit to run and to uncheck the 32 bit box. Problem is, the 32 bit box is not checked. Never had problem with older system. What can I do to be able to play iTunes?

I suggest you install iTunes 11.2.2, the latest version. If you have just installed Mavericks, then open App Store and login with your Apple ID. Click on the Upgrades icon in the toolbar. The new iTunes should show up. Click on the Update button.

Can't run iTunes off-network

I have my laptop hooked into my company's network. When I remove my laptop from the network, iTunes won't open, saying it cannot find the iTunes folder. I can only run iTunes when I am hooked into my network settings. It would not even install on my laptop unless I was on the network. How do I configure iTunes so that it is self-contained on my laptop? Can anyone help me?

Having similar problem with iTunes.msi.
Error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\WINDOWS\Installer\iTunes.msi
May or May not be related but I have a hunch it is. This has been around on my Laptop for about a year every since a botched iTunes Quicktime install. Never have been able to get iTunes to run, or update Quicktime from an early version 6. Finally got Quicktime updated and installed through apple updater today. It errored similar to the error you posted except it suggested using tools, download only and manual install from the Apple Updater Menu. Quicktime worked, iTunes didn't so I figured I'm tired of blowing it off and see what the fine people here at Support can offer-up.
Still have the following Error:
Error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\WINDOWS\Installer\iTunes.msi
