CSS 8.3 in Win7 won't launch - error re: css_admin.exe Entry Point not found... Help

New install of Win7 / all Win7 drivers installed & working
Except... during launch of CSS 8.3 (w & w/o patch installed - tried both ways), an error window pops up with:
css_admin.exe - Entry Point Not Found (title bar)
(Red X in window)
The procedure entry point
??0LocalFileFormatTarget@xercesc_2_7@@QAE@QBQAVMemo
ryManager@1@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link
library xerces-c_2_7.dll.
?? What is all this stuff mean ??
(the underscore is NOT present in the window, by the way...)
HELP! Anyone have ANY idea what the above lingo is re CSS and why it won't launch without popping up a window with this error, whatever it is??
I'm days into this reinstall and this is my "last" hangup / called support and they won't touch it since i didn't BUILD it with Windows 7 from them... just don't get this mindset. Only spent 5 digits (around $20,000 +) with Lenovo so far last year / may be the last dollar - I've run into many issues with support lately, for one the T61p I have has had 2 sys boards swapped, processor, 2 keyboards (after "loose screws from sys board swap" were found rolling around inside - yes, loose) among many other issues / only TP I've ever had issues with / want to stay with them, but if I have to fight city hall to swap out a lemon, heading out into the wild blue.

My iTunes won't open on Windows XP. iTunes.exe - Entry point not found, Error 7 (Windows Error 127)

When I open iTunes, I get a message saying under iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found, it says, The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll. And I'm not talking about the AppleSyncNotifier.exe. Along with that, I get the message saying, "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall i Tunes." Error 7 (Windows Error 127). That's why I'm unable to open iTunes. I sure hope to see a solution to those problems soon.
I know I've mentioned this before, but I've now given a little more info to make my explanation more clear.

ITunes won't open - iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Xcelsius exe won't launch - Entry Point Not Found message given

-Operating System: Windows XP
-OS Patch level: SP3
-Office Version: 2007
-Flash Player version: Adobe Flash Player 10
-Xcelsius Version and Patch Level: Xcelsius 2008 5.3.0.0
-Xcelsius Build number (Help>About Xcelsius): <not accessible>
-Business Objects Enterprise version/patch level (if applicable): Crystal Reports 12.1.0.892 - SP1
-Issue Description: Xcelsius exe won't launch - Entry Point Not Found message given
-Steps to Duplicate: When I try to open Xcelsius.exe, I receive a message box that says "Xcelsius.exe - Entry Point Not Found" "The procedure entry point ?LevelDiffToFirst@CTreeBtnCtrl@@QAEHPAU_TREEITEM@@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library TreeBtnExtDll.dll."
I have uninstalled and re-installed Xcelsius with the same results.
Also, when I open Crystal Reports 2008, the "Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 - Software Manager" opens and shows an update available - SP2. When I try to install the update, it downloads and then displays a message the this update is only available for Crystal Reports 2008 SP1. I believe that is my current version.
After some research, I believe my CR Runtime app may be a different version than what Xcelsius.exe is expecting, but I don't know how to check or fix that. Any help is appreciated.

Hi
I think I've managed to fix this error. I compared the TreeBtnExtDll.dll in my Xcelsius directory on the machine that wasn't working and one that was and found that the broken machine was using an older and smaller version of TreeBtnExtDll.dll. 89k and a date in 2008 I think. So I copied my newer version which was 109 k and dated 11/2009 into the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Xcelsius directory of the broken machines and now xcelsius appears to be working fine.
I had lots of trouble installing the SP3 release because of the media issues so maybe the install wasn't complete.
Anyway, I hope this helps you

Illustrator CS6 won't run. Entry Point Not Found

Cannot get Illustrator CS6 to run. All othe CS6 components are running fine.
Every time I try to start Illustrator I get error message:
The procedure entry point
?AcquireVarient@ImageInterface@drawbot@dvaui@@QEBA?BV?intrusive_ptr@UImageInterface@drawbo t@dvaui@@@boost@@V?rational@J@5@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library dvaui.dll.
This is on a Window 7 Pro PC. CS5 previously ran fine, but computer was rebuilt after a harddrive crash then loaded with CS6 and this problem began. CS6 installation on laptop works fine, so downloaded files are OK.
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall twice, but always the same result.

Windows said I had the latest drivers, but ATI (AMD) website had auto-scan software that loaded a newer version. (Was ver 8.x is now 9.0) However, there was no change. I have a Tech Support case with Adobe being escalated now.
Since it was working before, I am worndering about using older drivers. This PC has a V7800 workstation graphics card, so there are special CAD-certified drivers available. Maybe I need to rollback to one of those versions instead of the latest and greatest.
I also found that the dvaui.dll file in the Illustrator directory is a different size on the laptop compared to the workstation. I could move the file, but touching dll's is scary stuff.

ITunes doesn't launch error 1 "apple aplication support is not found"

Every single time I attempt to open iTunes, it doesn't and it shows me a pop up telling me that the ERROR 1 occured, that the apple aplication support was not found, it tells me to uninstall and install itunes and so i've done several times, but nothing. PLEASE help me if you can i'm going nuts here!!!!!

Try removing all iTunes related software and then reinstalling.
Use the method in this article:

Vista

If an uninstall doesn't work, you need to use the Microsft Installer cleanup utility to remove it.
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.

New iTunes update won't open. First it said Apple Mobil Device failed to start. So I Stopped then Started Apple Mobil Device. Now iTunes still won't load. Tells me MSVCR80.dll was not found. Wants me to reinstall app. Will I lose all my music?

Current iTunes update won't load. Tells me MSVCR80.dll was not found. Wants me to reboot. If I reboot, will I lose my music?

Hi DDay@55,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To resolve this error, I recommend completely removing and reinstalling iTunes and all of its related components using these steps:
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
You can find the article with these steps and more information here:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
This process should not affect any music or content on your computer, but you may want to
back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
Best,
Jeremy

TS1717 iTunes won't launch, error msg.

I cannot get iTunes to launch, and receive this message:
"The iTunes Library .tl file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "music folder"
I've repaired and removed it and still the same message appears. I've done both when asked to "fix" or "remove" and it goes through the process, however it still won't launch, and the same error message appears.
Thanks!

Updated iTunes to 9.2, now application won't launch - Error #13005

Help! I just updated my itunes to 9.2 and now it won't launch. An error window comes up and tells me it's due to an unknown error # 13005? I tried re-installing it to fix it but it still won't. Please help. I'm on the white 13' Macbook, running OS X 10.6.4. I have my itunes library in my external HD. Dying to get this fixed any help would be appreciated.

try these user tips:
try removing the Genius database. In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ folder and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.
and, if you have flip4mac installed
I found that the TSLicense plugin was causing the problem.
From the log:
PlugIn Path: /Library/Frameworks/TSLicense.framework/Versions/A/TSLicense
PlugIn Identifier: net.telestream.license
This pIugin is installed with the Flip4Mac Windows Media Components. I solved the problem by uninstalling the WM Components via the uninstaller at /Applications/Flip4Mac/Flip4Mac WMV Uninstaller.pkg, after which iTunes opens successfully.

Updating my Win7 to 12.1, I get 'iTunes was not installed correctly Error 7 (Windows error 127). If I try to launch, I get 'The procedure entry point "CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes" could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll'. Help!

Windows version 7. Auto update of iTunes to version 12.1 from 12.0.1.
At end of install process, message 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Error 7 (Windows error 127).
Tried to launch iTunes, anyway, but immediately got message 'The procedure entry point "CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes" could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll'.
Tried downloading iTunes and updating manually - get exactly the same result.
No problem using iTunes before this.

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.
The error hints at a similar pattern to those discussed in the first and third boxes of the user tip, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find CoreMedia.dll in the one of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Delete it and then repair Apple Mobile Device Support from the Programs and Features control panel. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.
