Cannot open itunes now I've downloaded the update - help please

I launched my itunes and had a message asking did I want to install the updated version. When it finished installing it said it needed to shutdown and restart - which I did. When I tried to reopen itunes from the shortcut it said it cannot open it coz some files are missing. Can anyone help please. I have contacted apple and although i've had my phone for over 90 days they have emailed me steps on how to uninstalled and reinstall safely. However, once I got the email, the first thing it tells me to do is to launch itunes which I can't do. can anyone help please? Many thanks.

Hi,
Try the following
First of all, see if you can uninstall your current version of HP Support Assistant by using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues that may prevent reinstallation on machines running a 64bit OS.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
If this completes, restart the PC.
Next download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page.
http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
After the installation, restart the PC again.
Regards,
DP-K

  • When I updated to iOS 8.1 on my iPad 2 it failed when installing it's in recovery mode and when I go to iTunes to restore it downloads the update to about 900 Mbps then gives me error 9006

    Hi Willy,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The article below provides information about specific update and restore alerts, including the 9006 alert that you saw when attempting to update your iPad 2 to iOS 8.1. Try using the instructions provided to see if the issue is caused by a conflict with the security software on your computer.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    Check your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't preventing a connection to the Apple servers.
    I hope this helps,
    -Jason

  • HT1926 We cannot open itunes after installing it. The licensing agreement comes up and we agree but then nothing happens. Each time we click on the itunes icon, the agreement comes up. We cannot get to itunes at all. I have followed some of the suggestion

    We cannot open iTunes after installing it. When we click on the icon the licensing agreement comes up and we click Agree but then nothing happens.  Each time we click the icon the agreement comes up.  We've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but we have the exact same problem.

    I cannot open Nikon NRW raw files in Elements 11 Help please

    If you're feeling brave* you can try the workaround procedure listed here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5956711#5956711.
    You'll need to use ACR 8.3 RC1. I found it at http://www.freewarefiles.com/downloads_counter.php?programid=24402. ACR 8.3 final won't work with PSE11. Make sure you click the correct download link - 'Direct Download 1' to get the zip file 'cameraraw8-3cs6_r1_win_110713.zip'.
    If your system can't open zip files I highly recommend the free 7-Zip (Google it) to do so.
    The '1033' file the instructions refer to is in payloads\AdobeCameraRaw7.0All-051113155157\Assets1_1.zip.
    * At your own risk! If any of this is incomprehensible stick with the DNG converter - that's the officially supported method and you'll need to install it anyway to get the profiles installed.

  • I just bought the MacBook Air and tried to transfer my songs from my external hard drive to my mac. now i cannot open iTunes and it said that the file cannot be found or created.

    i just bought a macbook air. ive been transfering all my songs from my external harddrive that i had on my previous laptop for itunes. now that i got them transfered. my itunes wont open. it says "the itunes library file cannot be found or created. the default location for this file is in the itunes folder in the music folder." what do i do!?!

    How did you move the music?  You have to do it in a specific way:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
    iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the whole iTunes folder and all its subfolders and files intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

  • I do not have any problems when downloading the new itunes. 10.6.3 version, but once "installed" I cannot open the itunes app by clicking on the icon, help please!

    When attempting to download the new version of itunes I was able to complete the download without a problem but cannot open the icon when everthing is done. I unistalled everything and reinstalled, I followed all the trouble-shooting guides, I attempted to download an older version and nothing is working. Prior to attempting to download this "new and improved version of itunes" everything was working fine. Unfortunately I had to update when I got a new iPhone and wanted to sync it to my old library and needed an updated version of itunes.

    Restart Computer.
    Refer steps here to delete SC file(s):
    Win7/Vista http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363

  • I cannot open itunes on my mac.  The Icon jumps, but nothing else happens.

    I may have shut my computer off while a new version of Itunes was downloading.  Not sure if this would affect it, but I can't open it now.  When I click on the icon, it jumps a little, but nothing else happens! Any ideas?? Help! I can still open it on my iphone. 

    Boot from your Snow Leopard install DVD, run Disk Utility and run Disk First Aid.
    Reboot.
    Then Apple menu > Software Update.
    Then reinstall iTunes.

  • I cant get my iphone to show up in my itunes...i downloaded the update last night and now it will not sync at all

    I cant get my iphone to show up in my itunes.  I downloaded the new update last night and I havent been able to sync it since

    See section 5 of TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.
    If that doesn't help it may pay to tear down and reinstall iTunes in the following manner...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • After iTunes 10 installation I cannot open iTunes now

    I've just tried to install iTunes 10 on my pc laptop and during the installation I got the following alert:
    !http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/827/capturend.jpg!
    After the first attempt I removed iTunes from the laptop via the control panel and tried the install again. Same thing happened!
    I removed iTunes again then removed the installer file and restarted the laptop. I then downloaded the installer file again and I keep getting the same issue.
    I have also removed Quicktime to see if that helped but it didn't
    I've googled this and found a site that suggested using a windows clean-up utility tool but this is no longer available so I'm wondering if there is an alternative fix?
    There are some other posts on here with links to this clean up file via a 3rd party vendor but I really don't want to go down that route unless absolutely required.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
    Also, is it possible to download iTunes 9 and reinstall that?
    I currently have no iTunes on the laptop which...
    Some additional info if it helps:
    OS - Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit)
    Laptop - Acer TravelMate 5520G
    CPU - AMD Turion 64 1.90 GHz
    RAM - 2GB DDR2
    Thanks

    I had a similar problem, I got the message that there was a problem with the installer, but I also got an error number 2203. I searched the web,and one person advised running the windows disc checker. Right click on the C drive icon, select tools, then check disc. It worked. But also I had a program called PC optimizer, which I also ran. So I can't tell you which program fixed it, but it did work. Hope this helps.

  • I lost all of my photos after downloading the update! Please help!!

    My entire iphoto library is empty; all my photos (thousands of my child's first two years) are gone - this happened after I downloaded the new update last night. Has this happened to anyone else?  Please tell me you know how I can get them back!?

    Just in case you don't see my responses before I sign off....
    That Masters folder should have all of your pictures...the actual files...assuming you've used iPhoto all along and are letting it manage the photo locations.  I'd suggest copying that folder elsewhere.   Better yet just copy the whole "iPhoto Library" thing.
    After that check out this document:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2638
    That shows how to run iPhoto to repair the library.  Worst case if that doesnt work is to create a new library and reimport your photos from the copy you made.  You'll lose all of the tags, etc. you might have put on photos but the most important part...the actual photos...should be good.
