Cannot open or uninstall iTunes

Every time I go to open iTunes it goes through a really SLOW "configuration" and comes up with an error - 2330. I've tried installing the most recent version of iTunes but get an error. I can't uninstall iTunes through the Control Panel.

  • You cannot open the application iTunes (11.1.4) because it is not supported on this type of Mac

    After updating iTunes to 11.1.4 as suggested by automatic updates I get the message:
    "You cannot open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac"
    Why did it let me do the update then?
    How do I undo the uodate to iTunes?
    This is on a Mac Mini running OSX 10.6.8 with 1GB mem

    What processor do you have?
    If it's a CoreDuo (as opposed to a Core2Duo), then you ave a 32 bit OS, and no... 11.1.4 won't run on a 32 bit OS.
    =Downgrading from iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7=
    Back up your computer first, in case the wrong things happen.
    Replace the iTunes 11 application with iTunes 10.7.  I can't provide details on this since I do not have a newer computer. With mine it is very simple but I believe on newer computers iTunes has been integrated into the operating system.  On mine I just go to my applications folder and drag iTunes to the trash.  See below for possible suggestions on how to remove.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20431349
    Get iTunes 10.7.  Apple does not keep many old version up on its web site.  I always keep an iTunes installer on my archive drive so I can have access to old versions .  This one is hidden but it is on an official Apple site:
    iTunes 10.7 for OS X  http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
    You will have to rescue your old iTunes library from your Previous Libraries folder and rename it iTunes Library.itl because a newer version of iTunes irreversibly updates your library file.  See:

  • Cannot start or uninstall iTunes

    Last night my power went off and caused me to have to do a system recovery on one of the users of my computer. While I was trying to figure out why the user's desktop was messed up I tried running Itunes. It said there was a new update so I went ahead and updated it. I then went through the recovery process and now I cannot start or uninstall Itunes. When I try to start it says there has been an error and asks me if I want to report it, I have answered yes and no and I also slected the debug option and that had no effect. When I try to uninstall it says it is starting the uninstallation wizard, but it never finishes. I seem to be stuck!

    I have the same problem, did you find a solution?

    Hi
    Did You move ?
    • iTunes - Library (Music)
    • iPhoto - photo library
    If so - iMovie is lost - it can only look in one specific place and if they (or their material) is not there any more (but may be copied out to an external hard disk) it (iMovie) get's lost.
    iMovie has no - look for it / find it function - as FinalCut has - and it can not be set to find material in new location if one are not a creator of the application or a very skillful HACKER.
    If You've NOT MOVED anything then I guess that
    • iPhoto / iTunes Libraries got corrupted and in need of repair
    - iPhoto by - Start it BUT KEEP alt-key + cmd-key down during up-start - then from list select ALL
    THIS TAKES SEVERAL HOURS - No other programs running - No Internet etc. To me last time I did this it took > 20 hours !
    • iTunes - Can be done - BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW

  • Cannot update or uninstall iTunes due to missing iTunes.msi file

    I am trying to update my itunes 10.4.1.10 to the newest version. However, when I try to update or manually uninstall iTunes I get the following error message. I am logged into the admin account and on a wireless network. I've looked for the iTunes.msi folder in my iTunes folders and program folders but cannot find it. Also using Windows Installer CleanUp Utility is no longer an available option since Microsoft is saying that it damages files as well as fix them. Any ideas on what to do???

    Also using Windows Installer CleanUp Utility is no longer an available option since Microsoft is saying that it damages files as well as fix them.
    Nonetheless, it's the best game in town for this particular kind of trouble. So, just in case, I'll run you through my standard instructions for an itunes.msi variant (just in case).
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeksare worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • I cannot update or uninstall iTunes with Windows XP.

    I have an older OS (windows XP) and have been trying to update iTunes.  I keep getting a message saying that Bonjour is on another network that I do not have access to.  It then tells me that iTunes.msi is not available either.  Now I am not able to sync my iPod.
    I have tried to uninstall iTunes to fix the problem, but I cannot do that either.  I get the same message about this missing Bonjour.  I would really like to update, or at the very least get rid of this version to get the newer iTunes.
    If anyone can help me figure out this problem, I would appreciate it more than I can say.
    Thank you in advance (especially if there is some simple solution that I have either not seen or tried )

  • Cannot install or uninstall iTunes

    When I tried to install the new V10.2 over 10.1.1.4 I continually got a message stating "The path to "c:.......iTunes64.msi" cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package "iTunes64.msi" in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.". I checked the path and the file is where it says it should be. So, I moved the file to the desktop and tried to run if from there but got the same message. So I tried to uninstall iTunes as suggested in the online support but couldn't uninstall as I got the same message. Now iTunes won't run at all. Help.

  • Can't open or uninstall iTunes

    I have a 2013 Macbook Pro. So far, it's been nothing but trouble. Safari shuts down on its own. The computer shuts down on its own. After utilities practically begged me to, I reinstalled Mavericks and the backup from Time Machine. Now it shuts down less and Safari shuts down less. But they still do. As an added bonus, iTunes doesn't open now. It says "PowerPC applications are no longer supported." When I try to uninstall it, I get a message that it "can't be modified or deleted because it's required by OS X." Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Aaaaanfd as I wrote this, my computer jumped back to the login screen. Is this thing alive???

  • Why cannot I not uninstall itunes

    Itunes has been installed and uninstalled on my computer several times, however now I cannot uninstall or install Itunes, Bonjour or mobileme.  when I click on the itunes icon, an alert states it is missing some files and to reinstall itunes, when I attempt to repare, remove or reinstall, I receive an alert stating that the path is incorrect and when I follow that path, it doesn't exist on my computer.  It says to locate itunes.msi, however doing a large search several times it does not find itunes.msi.  Add/remove option will not uninstall either.  I cannot sync my iphone 3G and I cannot purchase any music on itunes.  what am I missing?  please help - any advice would be helpful
    cheers

    Then I was instructed to re-install Itunes after removing it. I tried to but I got message to say that the.msi file was not available.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Cannot install or uninstall iTunes 10.4

    Keep getting error 1336 system error 5 Cannot write to file C:\program files\itunes\mozilla pluging\npitunes.dll Verify you have access to file. At a loss as to the problem, I verified access, tried running as administrator, tried changing install folder and all results in same error

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • "You cannot open the application "itunes" because another user has it open" I'm the only user

    Before you ask, no, I don't have more than one user account.
    I have nothing running that would be using itunes either, it just won't allow me to open itunes.
    I even went to the task manager to see if it was somehow open elsewhere, and it's not.
    I can restart my computer and it'll work the first time to open, but not after that, even though like I said, it isn't running period.

    dcwdcw:
    The solution to your problem is to close the other user's copy of iTunes, so that you are only using one copy of iTunes at any time. As long as you have separate user accounts, your nephew's iTunes and everything in it will be separate.
    I assume the problem is that having two copies of iTunes open at the same time violates the licence to use iTunes which, in common with "paid for" software, usually has the restriction that you can only use one copy at a time unless you have a _multiple user_ licence.
    Of course it's a bit silly - iTunes is free, but I suspect that's what the problem is.
    The original poster has a different problem though, but I don't understand ATV because I don't have it, which is why I haven't been able to help the OP. Hopefully, someone else can.
