Cant open ITunes after Upgrade

Must have upgraded my ITunes recently because ITunes will no longer open unless I download the new Quicktime 7.6. My company computer is running MAC OS 10 with no option for Leopard. APPLE! You idiots! If your upgrade is going to render a customers ITunes unnusable without a system upgrade you need to put a warning in the upgrade message so customers can choose not to run the upgrade!!!! Not everyone can run out and get the newest hardware and software.!!!! Now I cannot open my ITunes and can't go back to the old. Not to mention that my $260 ipod started to skip before it was even a year old and according the the discussion boards there was nothing to do to fix it. Get your stuff together Apple!!!!
This happened on my fathers ITunes operating on ad older Windows. He now cannot use his Ipod, because he cannot get an Itunes that will run on his computer!!! He can't upgrade without buying a new computer!!! And at 85 why should he buy a new one!!! Come on Apple!!!!

First, Apple product developers do not participate here, so rants posted here will do little good since the rant probably will be seen only by we your fellow users.
Second, why can you not upgrade to QuickTime 7.6? If it's just a matter of you not being able to find an appropriate version for your version of Mac OS X, just run Software Update on your computer, or look here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime
QuickTime 7.6 is available for Mac OS X versions back to and including 10.4.11, which is also the earliest version that the current iTunes release will run on. So there shouldn't be any problem, at least not as far as an available compatible version is concerned.
This happened on my fathers ITunes operating on ad older Windows. He now cannot use his Ipod, because he cannot get an Itunes that will run on his computer!
What version of Windows does he have? Did he have his iPod working before, or is this a new iPod? If so, the system requirements for the iPod are clearly stated, on Apple's web site and, I believe, on the iPod's box. If his system doesn't match the system requirements of the iPod, that's not Apple's fault.
Regards.

  • Cannot open iTunes after upgrade due to missing .dll file

    I cannot open iTunes after a recent upgrade.
    The error is "Applepushservice.dll is missing.  Please reinstall iTunes."  Which I have now done 8 times.
    I have uninstalled everything, clear the cache and rebooted.
    Now what?  Can I download the file from somewhere else and if so, where do I install it?
    Many thanks.

    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.

  • Cannot open iTunes after upgrading to 7.3.1

    Just traded my mini for a nano and upgraded from iTunes 6. I was able to install 7.3.1 (Windows XP) and sync the ipod so all of my music is on it, no problems. But after I closed iTunes after the syncing I can't re-open iTunes at all-- I get the message:
    'The iTunes Library.itl file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the iTunes folder in the “My Music” folder'
    Please help!! Thanks.

    +HOWEVER, once my library finished loading into iTunes, another error message came up:+
    +The iTunes library file cannot be saved. An unknown error occurred (-1302).+
    Okay. It's sounding like there was some problem with the original library file (that you had for the previous version) that has been preventing the library update from going through properly. That would fit with the non-appearance of the new .itl file with the upgrade, and the problems with generating a new library file from the old version of the library file.
    So it might be worth trying a library recreation at this point in time. For instructions on that, the following document should be of some assistance.
    How to recreate your iTunes Library
    After the library recreation, does itunes launch properly? (without the 1302 we got from the attempt to revitalise the old library file?)

  • MacBook Air unresponsive after opening iTunes after upgrade to 11.1

    I recently upgraded my MacBook Air to new version of iTunes, I believe it was 11.1 if that was what came out yesterday, and now the computer is unresponsive once I open iTunes.  A sign in box for a premier networks podcast is displayed but I am unable to enter any information as it will not allow any input.  The iTunes and apple menu cannot be accessed.  The only way to regain control of the computer is to force quit iTunes.  The podcast that the sign in box appears to be associated with is a PBS podcast that was deleted a very long time ago.

    Hi mbharrison!
    You may want to try reinstalling the application by following the instructions in this article:

  • Cannot open iTunes after upgrading it because of computer version

    I just upgraded iTunes to the latest version last night and now it will not let me open due to the fact that I have a Mac Os X 10.4.6 and need 10.4.7 to open iTunes. Is there a way to upgrade the Mac Os X without paying money? If not, can I down-grade my iTunes then?
    Thanks a bunch!!

    Download any of the compatible updaters from this page or run the Software Update pane of System Preferences. Updating from any Mac OS X 10.4 version to any newer Mac OS X 10.4 version is free.

  • Can't open iTunes after upgrade: Procedure entry point AVCFURLAssetInheritURIQueryComponentFromReferencingURIKey error

    Hi,
    I am using Windows 7 Professional, and upgraded my iTunes yesterday to 11.3. When I attempt to open iTunes, I am getting two error messages:
    iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found
    The procedure entry point AVCFURLAssetInheritURIQueryComponentFromReferencingURIKey could not be located in the dynamic link library AVFoundationCF.dll.
    I clicked OK, and get another error message:
    iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.
    Error 7 (Windows error 127)
    I reinstalled iTunes and still get the errors.
    Is there a solution to this problem? I would hate to uninstall and start over --- especially if that won't fix the problem.
    Thanks.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    Not an error message I recognise but the error has the same pattern as those in the first and third boxes suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find the file in the Apple Application Support folder. Delete it and then repair Apple Application Support.

  • Illustartor CS5 cant open svg after upgrading to Mavericks

    Hi,
    I upgraded to OSX-10.9 Mavericks. Now, I cant open svg files in illustrator CS5. I could do it before upgrading to Mavericks. Whats the problem?
    Thanks,
    Ron.

    If you do not have a backup then you will lose your photos ad all of yoru files sooner or later - hard drives, computers, software and humans fail and with no backup yu are 100% guarenteed to lose your phoots and files sooner or later - yhou need to purchase an external drive 2 1/2 times the size of your  main drive and start using Time Machine all the time ASAP
    For this a simple copy will works - but you must always have a backup if you care about anything on your oputer

  • Can't open iTunes after upgrading

    I just upgraded to the newest version of iTunes and now I am getting the following message "The "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes."
    I have tried dragging an older version of my library into the Itunes folder but still keep getting the same message. Now I cannot do anything with iTunes and this is extremely frustrating. Any ideas or suggestions on how to correct this?
    Thanks in advance
    Roya

    Had the same problem.
    If you have a Mac:
    Hold down "alt" and click on your iTunes icon
    Click "Choose Library"
    Select "Previous Library" folder
    Select your most recently dated library
    iTunes should now open normally
    If you have a PC:
    Change the extension of your library file from ".itl" to ".old" and restart iTunes

  • Cannot Open iTunes After Upgrading to 6.0.4

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and ever since, I cannot open the program on my computer. I have tried everything they say to do in the on line support manual. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have sent a few hours on this and nothing they tell me to try is solving the problem.

    hi goldylocks!
    Error Number: 0x80040707
    Description: DLL function call crashed: QTInstallCode.QuickTimePostInstallProc
    that's a known complication of a broken QuickTime. in this context, it usually means the installation configuration information of the QuickTime has been compromised.
    here's what we'll try first.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    next use the QuickTime component of the complete uninstall instructions in the following document as a guide to a manual removal of leftover QuickTime program files and folders.
    Trouble installing iPod, iTunes, or QuickTime software in Windows
    once we've got all the existing QuickTime scraped away, let's try another careful standalone QT 7.0.4 reinstall.
    does it go through properly this time? if so, does your itunes launch properly again?
    love, b

  • Cant open documents after upgrade

    I recently updated the "Pages" app on my iMac.  I have created two documents since then and saved them.  When I go to Pages, these documents are "greyed" out.  They are there, I can see them, but they can't be selected to open.  How do I open these and why did this happen.  Looking through some of my other documents, I have noticed alot of them are grey as well and can't be opened.  Especially PDF files.  What is going on?  I REALLY need those documents.  5 hours worth of work are saved in that unopenable space!

    If you recently "updated" Pages, you probably upgraded to Pages 5 and have Pages '09 moved to your Applications/iWork folder.
    Pages '09 can not open anything created by Pages 5 unless you exported the files to Pages '09 or Word .docx formats.
    Mavericks also "locks" older unused files.
    Are you sure that this is not what is happening.
    Or did you delete all the necessary apps when you migrated?
    Thirdly do you have them stored somewhere else that the Mac can't locate and those are just aliases?

  • Can't open itunes after 7.7 upgrade

    I can no longer open itunes after updating 7.7. Tried all normal tricks. Multiple reinstalls and restarts. I get "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" and asks if I want to send an error report to microsoft. I also tried downloading older versions of itunes (which worked fine before update) and get the same error message. Quicktime gets the same message too. I tried to uninstall that and a fatal error message came up and would not uninstall. Last but not least I had an "itunes helper has a problem ect." on a couple of my reinstalls. Read something about uninstalling boujour with no results.
    Any fix or help would be appreciated. I'm not super computer guy...just so you know. Thanks

    This sounds like your shortcut is still pointing to iTunes 7 (assuming you upgraded to version 8). Find the version 8 application and it should work.
    The problem with the Mac version 8 is that it crashes consistently at startup, and the solution to that is ditching the new library files and reverting to the most recent version 7 library (copy from from the Previous iTunes Library directory and delete the date suffix).
    There was a known issue with proxies settings in earlier versions of 7 that has apparently been reintroduced in version 8.
    Way to go, Apple.
