Cannot start iTunes after installing Lion

I installed Lion Mac OSx, then I started iTunes.
It didn' work, an error message appeared asking me to check whether this version of iTunes works on this vesion of Mac OS. As well, the message asked me to get the latest iTunes and Mac OS update, which I did.
But the same message appears again.
I totally removed iTunes and re-installed it, but nothing new.
Please help.

you can't install XP on new 2011 Macs.
Boot Camp 4.0 doesn't include drivers, that does not mean you can't install XP.
Boot Camp 4 Lion Installation & Setup Guide (PDF)
While Boot Camp 4.0 will run in eitherSnow Leopard or Lion, it is a requirement for setting up new Windows installations in Lion even though existing Boot Camp 3 installations will continue to work in Lion if you upgrade your systems. What this means is that if you have an existing Windows XP or Vista installation when you upgrade to Lion then Boot Camp will still work, but you will not be able to upgrade it to version 4 or later.
Boot Camp 4 requires Windows 7 or later | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews
You don't NEED new 4.0 drivers, that is settled.
There is one sentence in the above article that needs to be confirmed, I highly doubt the accuracy:
if you decide to set up a dual-boot environment for Windows from a Lion installation then you will need to have Windows 7 or later, as your older XP or Vista discs will not work.
The only way Lion can allow XP to boot if it was there before, but not allow installing, would have to be the GPT partition.
Block = prevent = "cannot install" IS a form of blocking and preventing.
So Apple does block.
OP:
My iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) or iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2010) displays a black screen during installation of Microsoft Windows 7 using the Boot Camp Assistant.  How do I fix it?
The Windows 7 installer does not include required graphics or Bluetooth drivers for this computer.  To obtain the necessary drivers and resolve the issue, see this article.

    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.

    Why can't I open itunes after installing Lion?

    I do not know what to tell you. iTunes is working fine on my system. What don't you give a little information about your system and when this problem began on your mac.

  • Problem starting up after installing Lion

    After installing Lion I get this error message when starting and getting to the desktop:
    "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button untilnit turns off, then press the power button again."
    Starting in safe mode works fine.

    That could be the wording presented by 10.7 when a kernel panic occurs.
    If so, consider first the possibility of an issue with third party software or hardware.

  • Problem opening iTunes after installing Lion

    I just installed lion.  When I try to open iTunes it says it cannot read my library because it was created by a newer version.  It asks me if I wannt to download iTunes.  What should I do to fix this?

    Uninstall QuickTime then download the file again and reinstall QuickTime. iTunes needs a functional QuickTime in order to operate properly. I had the same error, and iTunes has been working fine.

  • Starting mail after installing Lion

    Hi,
    I installed Lion on my MacbookPro (2008) yesterday. Everything is working fine, except mail. When i start mail, it says (ranslated from nowegian): "Mail needs to organize he database, press continue". When i press continue it says: "Transfering data". Then everything freezes. Solutions anyone?

    Problem Solved,   I'll put it down to  operator error.
    After checking out the Preferences for Mail and for that one particular email address I found that the password had one too many digits so I reentered the password and it worked just fine.
    Don't ask me how come the extra digit as I haven't had any  reason to go into Mail Preferences for months and all of the addresses were working fine until after  loading Lion.

  • Cannot Start iTunes after update

    Hi all,
    I recently tried to update iTunes to version 10.5.2- I uninstalled the old version (10.5) and downloaded and installed the newest version. However after installing iTunes 10.5.2, when I tried to run it I get the following error:
    "iTunes helper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7"
    followed by:
    "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows Error 126)."
    I Googled the error and found some suggestions to repair Apple Application support from the Programs and Features Control Panel, and to re-install the .NET Framework 4.0. After doing that I no longer get the first error but I now get this: "The program can't start because icuin36.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
    I also still get the second error.
    EDIT: I am on Windows 7 x64.

    Hmm! I wonder if there are windows system file corruption that prevent you from completing the install.
    Can you go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
    type in
    sfc /scannow
    let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
    Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
    Then do the install.
    Good luck.

  • Cannot start EM after installing 12g

    Hello:
    I successfully installed 12g and created my first database. But when I try launching the em with the url, https://FSG-vvenk:5500/em, I get a "This page cannot be displayed".
    Also I do not see a Service labeled "EM" and hence not sure if the service has been started.
    Venki

    I am not sure that the command given by Sb would be useful in 12c as the EM express uses XDB . Try using the commands below and post feedback,
    SQL> exec dbms_xdb_config.sethttpsport (5500);
    SQL> exec dbms_xdb_config.sethttpsport (5500);
    Confirm that the port is correctly configured using the following query
    SQL> select dbms_xdb_config.gethttpsport () from dual;
    DBMS_XDB_CONFIG.GETHTTPSPORT()
    5500
    After this try to use the EM Express again.
    HTH

  • Ipad Mini cannot start up after install iOS 8.1.2

    Hi All,my Ipad Mini after upgraded from iOS 8 to iOS 8.1.2 couldn't start up,it only show the Apple logo and goes off after!
    Can anyone here advice me please.
    Thanks

    Try to reset the device:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
    Be aware that in some cases, the device may enter recovery mode after a glitched update (if that's what happened).
