Cannot run Quicktime or iTunes - Data Execution Prevention

I have tried to install quicktime and itunes and when i run them windows vista home tells me that Data Execution Prevention has closed the application. I have removed itunes and quicktime and just tried installing quicktime - and i get the same error.
I tried turning off DEP for quicktime - but windows tells me that it cannot be turned off for Quicktime.
Any solution to this?
Thanks!

What are you doing when iTunes or Quicktime crashes? Does it crash on launch?
Have you ever installed a 3rd party Quicktime alternative -- i.e. you downloaded and installed Quicktime from a non-Apple source? (There are some codec vendors that repackage / redistribute Quicktime. I recommend only installing Quicktime from the Apple web site or Apple Update Software.)
When you uninstalled Quicktime, did you do the scorched earth version of the Quicktime uninstall -- where you uninstall, then run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility and then manually search for Quicktime files (particularly in your system folder) and delete them?
What I'm concerned about is that you have a partial, non-standard Quicktime install on your machine.
Do you have any third party iTunes plugins or Quicktime codecs installed?

Reader 9.2 won't print PDF Files (data execution prevention)

I just downloaded updates to reader 9.2 and now pdf files will not print. message of data execution prevention stops the printing process. Help me mister wizard!!!!!

Seems an awful lot of us are having the same problem. When I updated toV9.2 I got the DEP error. Never had a problem with V9.1.3 Try uninstalling 9.2 and installing V9.1.3. If that doesn't work try what some other users have done go back to V8.1.3. I wonder when the Adobe people are going to attend to this problem?

Something called Data Execution Prevention shuts Reader down when I try to print.

I've had this problem with Reader X & Reader 9. I'm running Vista oc and whenever I try print a pdf a message comes up that says Adobe Reader has stoped working correctly and is being shut down by windows. Then another message appears saying that Adobe Reader was shut down by Data Execution Prevention in order to protect the computer from damage. I tried to remove Adobe Reader from the list of programs turned on for DEP and got a message stating that Adobe Reader has to run with DEP and DEP cannot be turned off for it. Anyone know how to work around this?

I have the same issue with Adobe Reader X and Windows Vista Home Premium.
Could someone please post information on this issue??

Any Time I Open iTunes My Computer Comes Up With A Message Saying "Data Execution Prevention - Mircosoft Windows To Help Protect Your Computer, Windows Has Closed This Program" We Have Trend Micro Internet Security Titanium.

Any Time I Open iTunes My Computer Comes Up With A Message Saying "Data Execution Prevention - Mircosoft Windows To Help Protect Your Computer, Windows Has Closed This Program" We Have Trend Micro Internet Security Titanium But It Appears To Be Windows Stopping iTunes.

Right click My Computer > Properties > Advanced > Performance: Settings > Data Execution Prevention > Add iTunes to be let through

Itunes error. the data execution prevention pops up and says "to protect your computer, windows has closed this program. Data execution prevention helps protect against damage from viruses and other threat.

I have a windows Xp computer. and i needed to download the newest itunes to support my ipod touch. but now my computer doesn't let me open itunes. The the data execution prevention pops up and says "to protect your computer, windows has closed this program. Data execution prevention (DEP) helps protect against damage from viruses and other threat." I tried excluding itunes from DEP on settings but it still doesn't work. I don't know what to do. please help me!!!

I had the same problem, then Kaspersky software found a conflict suggesting me this solution.

I cant transfer purchases to a playlist because of data execution prevention the programme closes

I am trying to transfer itune purchases from my library to a new playlist. Every time I click on a track I get an error message "Data Execution Prevention" and the programme closes.

UPDATE:
I figured out how to find previous purchases (That tutorial is for a mac. I have a pc) Now it only gives me the option to download via iCloud. I do not want to do that because that just another headache waiting to happen.
UPDATE 2:
My mistake, it doesnt give the option to download via iCLoud. It just says they are already downloaded to my computer, which is BS because it never worked in the first place. So is there any way to tell itunes to "check again" to see if the music in question is, in fact, on my computer?

When I open itunes I get a 'DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION' 'Windows closed program'. Can anybody help please.

When open iTunes it starts OK then a message from Windows appears, 'DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION Windows closed program'. Then the whole thing shuts down. Does anybody know how to sort this out please. I am using XP operating system and have recently updated iTunes. Thanks

Hi alanfromharlow,
It sounds as if iTunes is failing to launch properly on your Windows computer. You don’t mention what version of Windows you have, but one of these two articles should be useful to you -

Problem with Windows Data Execution Prevention

Hi. I'm running Safari 5.1.2 on Windows Vista Business. Whenever I try to print a web page (any page) Windows reports a Data Execution Prevention and closes Safari. I can always print the same web page from IE, and I can always print to PDF. How do I fix?
LATE ADDENDUM: Now it won't let me print to PDF either. I will have to stop using Safari - which would be a great pity as it syncs bookmarks so well to my iPad and iPhone

I got this from someone.
Acrobat X not printing
I purchased Acrobat X several months ago and initially expereinced no problems printing. For the last week or so, I am unable to print PDF documents from Acrobat X. I can print successfully from any other program on my PC. I can also print successfully from Adobe Reader. However, when I open up the same PDF in Acrobat X, I click on print and select the defaul printer, a dialog box says my document is printed but nothing prints. The printer queue for the selected printer is blank.

"Data Execution Prevention Problems" with Adobe 9.3 (Win)

Dear All:
I have recently submitted some applications with an Australian university, and this university has difficulties
opening my MAC-generated PDF Portfolio. They keep insisting that there may be a virus, and I keep pointing
out that maybe some of the bundled PDF files that seek a full-screen mode might cause this alarm in the
Windblows context.
The screen-shots they have sent me say this:
1) Data Execution Prevention - Microsoft Windows
To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program
Name: Adobe Reader 9.3
Data Execution Prevention helps protect against damage from viruses and other security threats. What should
I do?
2) Adobe Reader 9.3 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost.
For more information about this error, click here
Now the only solution is for me to go somewhere and print out these PDF files, and then snail-mail them to HR;
the "paperless office" idea has never worked very successfully, and now I have confirmation.
Any help would be much appreciated. I never recall generating a virus on my MAC ....

I am having the same problem with Acrobat Reader X.
I am using Adobe Reader X and am constantly getting a Windows "data execution prevention" error every time I open and close a pdf file. What can I do to resolve this as Windows says it can not shut off "data execution prevention" for Adobe reader?

"Data Execution Prevention" prevents Reader 9.0 & 9.1 from running

When I try running Adobe Reader 9.0 or 9.1, the Windos "Data Execution Prevention" feature prevents it from running. I just received a new DELL computer with Vista Home Premium OS with Adobe 9.0 already installed. When I run the Adobe Reader, it stops executing because it is using a part of memory reserved for system files. Windows states that "Data Execution Prevention" has stopped the program to prevent possible corruption. I downloaded version 9.1 and still have the same problem. I downloaded the "light" version of Version 9.1 and still have the same problem. If I try running from Firefox or from the Desktop icon, I still have the same problem. When I try from the Control Panel to set Data Execution Prevention to exempt Adobe Reader, I get a message that Adobe Reader needs to run under DEP and cannot be exempted. So, I can't run Adober Reader 9.1 becasue Windows "Data Execution Prevention" stops it. Can anyone help? Thanks.

I have a user experiencing the same problem. Opening the program itself (not by executing a pdf file) end up crashing Adobe immediately. Initiating Adobe Reader from a PDF file, it appears to crash during "Initializing DigSig(2).api". As other users have noted in other threads pertaining to this problem, Data Execution Prevention pops up a message basically telling the user that the program was blocked and to make an exception. When I try to do this for AcroRd32.exe, DEP complains that the program must run with DEP enabled and it cannot be turned off for this program. I've installed Foxit Reader as a temporary work-around, but we have a lot of industry-specific programs that rely heavily on Acrobat Reader and I fear it may have a much more far-reaching problem since Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 is dead-in-the-water. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Is Adobe/MS working on a solution?

Data Execution Prevention preventing iTunes from working

I have iTunes 8.0.2.20 running on Windows Server 2008 SP1. Whenever I plug in my iPod Nano, Data Execution Prevention (DEP) shuts down iTunes. I can't create an exception for iTunes in DEP since it gives the following error message:
+"This program must run with data execution protection (DEP) enabled. You cannot turn off DEP for this program."+
Any ideas on what might be causing this issue?

No, i do not have quickTime player.
I have tried to close dep off for iTunes but failed to do so as i got a msg that iTunes can't work without Dep in execution data prevention.

Data Execution Prevention has closed Adobe Reader

I cannot launch Adobe Reader, got the following message
When I close program, a message says "Data Execution Prevention has closed Adobe Reader." I have searched the Microsoft Community for fixes, but those suggestions don't work.
I'm running Windows Vista Home Basic Version 6 Service Pack 2, 32 bit and I have downloaded Adobe Reader 10.1.4

You can download the 10.1.9 update patch from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5712
Protected Mode is normally disabled from within Adobe Reader Preferences. Since you cannot even open Adobe Reader, you can disable it via Windows registry: download, unzip, then run the attached registry script.

Is there a Data Execution Prevention compatable version of iTunes? I have reinstalled iTunes 10.5 at least 10 times, and after it installs, it will not open because of DEP.

I have tried all the advice I have seen on Apple Support discussion boards for the past 2 days, and nothing works. Disabling DEP is not possible, regardless of what the Windows Support discussions tell you. In the meantime, I have absolutely no access to iTunes, or even the ability to update my iPhone or iPod. The only feasable solution is the possibility of a version of iTunes that is compatable with Data Execution Prevention settings.
In the past 2 days, I have: Removed iTunes and related components from the Control Panel (numerous times) Per the instructions on Apple Service discussions pages, I did it in this order. 1. iTunes 2. QuickTime 3. Apple Software Update 4. Apple Mobile Device Support 5. Bonjour ^. Apple Application Support. After all that, I reinstalled iTunes.
Everything looks fine during installation, with no error messages. At the end, it says everything was successfully installed. However, when the installation tool closes, iTunes will only partially open a window, but will stay blank. Then I get the message that iTunes has stopped working and that Windows has shut it down. Then I get notified that DEP has caused iTunes to shut down.
Can someone please help? Or, is there a DEP compatible version of iTunes?
I would appreciate any help. Thanks!!

Polydorus,
Thank you for your kind reply. During the many times I uninstalled iTunes, and all the other Apple programs, I only used the Uninstall Programs in Windows Control Panel. To make a long story short, I found a solution that works for me, but it is still not a complete soluton.
Here is what I did:
I used Uninstall Program in the Windows Control Panel to uninstall everything IN THIS ORDER
1. iTunes
2. QuickTime
3. Apple Software Update
4. Apple Mobile Device Support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple Application Support
Then I went to C:\Program Files and looked for any iTunes or Apple program listed there and deleted it.
I have 64-bit, so I then went to C:\Program files (x86) and looked for any iTunes, QuickTime, Bonjour or any other file or folder that had Apple or any Apple program in the name and deleted it.
I went to C:\Windows|SysWOW64\Quicktime and C:\Windows\SysWOW64\QuicktimeVR and deleted them
Go back to START, and open the "C" drive. Open the USERS folder. Open the folder with your username. Open the AppData folder. Then double-click on the LOCAL folder to open it. If you see any files or folders there that show any Apple program or file, delete those files or folders. Then go to the REMOTE folder and do the same. If there are any other users on this computer, go to each individual user and do the same thing in each LOCAL and REMOTE folder. Restart your computer.
Go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ This is the page where you will actually download iTunes. Scroll down the page to the section under "Windows Software" that says "64-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7 require the iTunes 64-bit installer". Click on that line to get the installer. It will take you to another download window.
Scroll to the bottom of the page to the message that says "Download for iTunes 10.4.1 for Windows (64-bit) here: iTunes for Windows 64-bit." Click there to get the download.
This is not iTunes 10.5, so you will not have access to "The Cloud", but it is at least functional until Apple actually comes out with a version that will not activate the DEP message. There was no combination of uninstalling and reinstalling, with or without Quicktime, with 10.5 that did not cause problems with Data Execution Prevention problems that I found.
I also used Firefox for the downloading instead of Internet Explorer. It just seemed to function better that way.
I hope this is helpful to someone. It's just what worked for me.

ITunes 12 incompatible with Windows Vista Data Execution Prevention FIX

I have been getting a "Vista Data
Execution Prevention" error message whenever I closed iTunes for months
now, and after reading through a few forums, I have found a solution
that works. It only takes two minutes. Long story short:
1) Start iTunes
2) Open the Windows Task Manager
3) Go to the "Proccess" Tab
4) Find "AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe *32" and right click on it.
5) Select "Properties" from the drop down menu
6) Go to the "Compatibility" Tab
7) Check the Box next to "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
8) If "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" is not in the field below, click on the down arrow and select said option.
9) Click on "OK" to close the window.
10) Close the iTunes application
11) Reopen the iTunes application
12) Close the iTunes application again.
At this point you should not see anymore "Vista Data Execution Prevention" error messages when you close iTunes!
P.S.
If you want to go back and de-select running
"AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe *32" in Windows XP Compatibility mode, you
can. Though this part is totally optional. The next time you close
iTunes, you will get one last "Vista Data Execution Prevention" error
message, but don't worry, it will be the last one. Try opening iTunes
again and then closing it, and TaDa, no more error messages. I don't
know why running AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe *32 in compatibility mode
JUST ONCE solves the problem, but it worked for me.
Happy new year \o/

Welcome tocguy. If I may ask you a question: How much memory does your Vista x64 PC have? I have 3 GB, which is the maximum that 32-bit Vista can recognize, but I seem to recall that 64-bit Vista can utilize much more than that, and wonder if that might be why 64-bit users are scarce in the 11.2 thread.
I have now also done a truly clean reinstall, deleting Apple folders in ProgramData and each user account's AppData folder, and even the iTunes folders in each user's Music folder. Of course I moved my iTunes Media folder to a safe location first, and one iTunes Library backup file suitable for version 11.1.5. I also cleaned the registry. The most I can say is that I sometimes don't get a BEX upon closing iTunes now, but usually I do. I deselected one default setting during installation, "Use iTunes as the default player for audio files." (If an audio file can be opened by Media Player 11, why would I want to open it in a program that gives me a BEX nearly every time I use it? Too bad my AAC files purchased at iTunes Store can't be opened by WMP, but I certainly won't be buying any more of those now.) My advice to other Vista users: Don't waste your time reinstalling, it won't solve the DEP problem.
Ran the Program Compatibility Wizard to run iTunes in XP SP2 compatibility mode, but abandoned that idea after the first BEX.
Thought I was onto something when I tried the registry fix at http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2008/06/17/to-dep-or-not-to-dep.aspx. Johnny DEP thought he was so slick when he saw iTunes listed as an exception in his DEP tab, but there was one minor problem (yes I did reboot):
Oh well, it's probably a bad idea to allow buffer overruns anyway. The fact that this didn't work causes me to think that Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit or Application Compatibility Toolkit would also be a waste of time. Vista users who wish to avoid BEX errors can either downgrade their iTunes (free) or upgrade their Windows (not free).
