Itunes store will not open on my desktop

I am wondering if anybody on here is having any problems opening the Itunes store? I can launch Itunes on my computer but the store part will not open. All I keep getting is a message saying that the Itunes store is temporarily unavailable. I've had this problem for the last couple months. I've gone through the threads on here but nothing about the problem I am having and have gone to the Apple stores in person and nobody there knows what the problem is. I have gift cards to use for it but can't use them because of this problem. Am I going to have to suck it up and start buying CD's from and dare I say it, Best Buy??? I am still using Itunes 7 and never had problems with it til recently.

I have not had any problems today.
You should upgrade to iTunes 9.2.1. You can get it here http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1056
Here are a couple of articles that may help you.

Firefox will not open from my desktop (freezes), but will open from wifes desktop, same computer.

Within the last 3 days, I have opened my Firefox browser only to have it freeze. There are two tabs opened. One eventually showas a yellow triangle with and exclamation mark and states "Restore Session". The second tab has "Getting Started with Firefox". I have opened my wifes desktop, clicked on Firefox and it opens properly and I am able to use it. I go back to my desktop, open Firefox... FREEZES!! I have spoken with a local computer repair busuiness and have tried several suggestions from them including uninstalling and reinstalling. Even after the same thing happens from only my desktop, open Firefox...FREEZES!!. I hope you can provide a solution as there are several work related websites that only function correctly with Firefox.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Iphoto will not open on my desktop.

When I double click on iphoto under applications an iphoto gray screen appears with a spinning white wheel (not rainbow) but the application never opens. It has always worked and there are no error messages appearing.
iPhoto 11 version 9.2.3 (629.52)

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database

Mozilla browser will not open on my desktop

Cannot open Mozilla web browser. I can open Google chrome and access the internet.

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up
A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Apple Mail's window will not open/show on desktop

Ran into a problem this weekend and can not seem to figure out what is causing it. I open mail and it launches since it is showing in the dock and the mail menu is visible. The main mailbox window is missing and most all of the menus are greyed out, even in the window menu where it allows you to select a window to see the main mail window is not showing up.
I have manually rebuilt the mailbox database and that did not help. I deleted the "Account.plist" file from the ~/library/mail/MailData/ folder and this seem to work. When I launched mail after I deleted this file the Main mail window was there with all my mailbox folders and emails. The only thing missing was the inbox for my main email account. Mail required that a new email account be created otherwise it would quit, I create the email account and everything was fine, until I quit out of mail. The next time I launched it again i was back to not have the main mail window. The only way to get it to come back is to delete the "Account.plist" file again and created the main email account. The only work around I have at this point is not to quit mail.
This kind of behavior tells me a file must be corrupted or something, but I can not seem to figure out which file is having the issue.
Can anyone provide any insight into what could be the issue here.

I am going to look at the fonts as well, thanks for suggestion, not that the original email database is working again, i am getting font error when Mail is opening up but they do not seem to be causing any major problems. Before I did any thing else I check to make sure permission was correct and they were a mess so I repaired them all. It appear the last Maverick update really screwed up the second user account on this computer. The other one was fine no issue bit this one had all sorts of issue most of them were easy fixes like repairing permissions.
Here are the font errors I am now getting

Firefox "starts" but browser will not open on desktop

When I click to open Firefox min Windows 7, the program loads, i.e., I can see the window on the Aero Bar, but the browser will not open on my desktop. I have redone my profile and that seems to solve the problem for a while, but then the same problem reoccurs. This happened with four different profiles. When I do get the browser open on the desktop, I find a load of error messages in the error console.

Hello Joseph.
You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal? [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode Safe mode] will do it easy, if you can't hope Firefox.

Had a problem with hijacked browsers. Got it cleaned, Firefox will not open or un install. I want to remove existing and install a "clean" one.

Browsers were hijacked, found and quaranteened(sp?) the bugs, Mozilla will not open from the desktop, Programs. Tried to un-install either one-no joy. Want to use Firefox again, thought I could uninstall and reinstall "Clean" versions. If nothing else, since I can't use Mozilla, want to remove them permanently.

Itunes will not open on my computer the icon on desktop has changed to a white foldertype icon. itunes is listed in programmes on my start menu but will not launch either

please help
itunes will not open on my computer the icon on my desktop has changed to a white folder and it is still listed in start programmes but will not launch i am concerned about losing all my downloads

You music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If there was one please give it in full.
Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open?
