Did PC Recovery and Dowloaded iTunes, wont open, only get error reports.

I just did a PC recovery and have all of my music from iTunes backed up on a dock drive. I just re-downloaded iTunes and installed it. iTunes won't open, I just get an error report every time. I clicked on the setup file and tried to repair it. I've uninstalled it and redownloaded it. Still the same result. Does anyone have any ideas on what else I could do?

does that help anyone?

  • ITunes wont open-I get error message...

    Hello,
    I recently built my own computer, and it has been working almost flawlessly for months.
    About a week ago, I installed Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my computer, and suddenly I was not able to open iTunes. I just get the error message that says "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    I have:
    -uninstalled Adobe Photoshop
    -reinstalled iTunes multiple times
    -rebooted
    -copied iTunes program files from working computer
    ^none of the above have worked. Any ideas?
    -Bonbon

    Oops, nevemind, I got it working again. I had installed a crappy codec pack that was obviously interfering with iTunes. I uninstalled the codec pack and, TAADAH!!, it worked.

  • Itunes wont open/ immediate "send error report message"

    So I had a problem with me trying to install itunes 7.3 because of a missing itunes.msi. I followed the instructions i found from this forum as follows
    "1. Go to http://www.ccleaner.com/ and download and install CCleaner. Run this program and click Run Cleaner. This program will remove most of your temporary files.
    2. Go to http://download.microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1b d/msicuu2.exe and download and install Windows Install Clean Up utility. Click on iTunes and click Remove. Do the same for Quicktime.
    3. Now you need to manually delete all of your iTunes and Quicktime files. This can take a very long time. Just go to C: and start searching through.
    4. Go to the Run box and type in "regedit". Go through all of the folders in there and delete all iTunes and Quicktime files.
    5. Go to Add/Remove Programs and Remove iTunes and Quicktime.
    6. Download iTunes again and install it."
    I then tried to open itunes and immediately a message pops up asking if i want to send an error report to microsoft. It seems as though step 4 might have truly made things worse.
    Someone please help

    After you get the send error report message go to:
    Start -> Control Panel (In classic view which can be enabled by clicking view classic.) -> Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer.
    Select the Application log and look for the most recent errors (Marked by a red X).
    Double click on the error and it will show you a full description. For an error similar to the one you are recieving it should report a 'faulting module' in the error.
    Please paste that here. This will help us help you.

  • Itunes wont open, I get "itunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (-50)"

    I'm on Windows 7 - using itunes daily without problems and suddenly itunes wont open, I get "itunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (-50)"  The only thing I can think is I think there was a download in progress when I shut down the computer.
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalled, but I get the same thing. I tried clearing the itunes folder and reinstalling, same thing. help!

    Doublechecking. When you did the complete uninstall, were you using the following document as a guide?
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    (If damaged program files are involved here, a standard install might not remove them, and a reinstall might not then replace them. So the Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled section is an important step.)

  • Itunes wont open at all, error message : quicktime was not found .... please reinstall ... i did that but no luck this only seems to have happened since the 10.4 update, im on windows 7 ..

    itunes wont open at all, error message : quicktime was not found .... please reinstall ... i did that but no luck this only seems to have happened since the 10.4 update, im on windows 7 ..

    Can you start QuickTime on your computer?
    You'll probably have to search for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and use it to remove QuickTime Player and iTunes. Then download and install the iTunes again.

    Hello maddisonsf
    Try downloading iTunes from the link below and run the installer that comes with it to see if that resolves the issue of not starting up for you.

  • ITunes wont open only error message

    iTunes wont open I only get an error message that reads. "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the My Music folder" My music is on an exernal hard drive and it worked before I upgraded and now it wont work.
    Please help

    hiya!
    it's best to leave the "My Music" folder on the C drive. it's a Windows special folder, so having it out on an external can cause weird problems if (say) the drive letter assignment for the external drive changes.
    okay, here's the best place to start:
    iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
    ... but if you run into the complication where "My Music" doesn't appear as an option in TweakUI, try the alternate technique from the following Nigel Carpenter post:

  • My itunes wont open ! No error message

    My itunes wont open ! When I click on the icon nothing opens, not even an error message. Iv tried opening it from Windows Task Manager > Processes > Itunes.exe but nothing seems to work ! Itunes doesnt open when I sync my iphone either ! Please help

    Hi b,
    I think I'm having the same problem as Vanessa (and a lot of others from the sound of it). When I click on my iTunes shortcut the hourglass pops up for a second and then nothing happens. I can't access the music store from the net either (I get a message that says "Loading... Please wait" and then nothing happens). I've turned off my firewall (Norton Personal Firewall 2003)and that didn't help. I tried Lorraine's fix with installing the files in Norton one by one and telling them to be permitted and that didn't work. I also tried a stand alone installation of Quicktime and that helped some (the quickTime player window does now pop up for a split second before disappearing when I click Quicktime) but I still can't access the music store. I thought I'd try your suggestion of looking in the task manager for my itunes.exe file but I can't find the task manager. Where is it?

  • Reinstalled windows 7-64bit and now itunes wont open(although process runs)

    i have googl'd this issue and looked over all possibilities, however none have really shown progress except using msconfig. disabling all but windows functions did allow me to open itunes, but i have not been able to do anything with it. as i have still not been able to isolate what could be cause the interference. i have disabled anti-viruses(although at least to protective elements were running when windows started despite the msconfig) which changed nothing unless they were off as were all non windows processes.
    if there is any list or type of processes that would interfere it would really help, because installing a older version(as one forum said had worked with 9.03) did nothing just as my attempts with running it in compatibility mode.
    with not fully understanding how some of the startup elements are even differentiated in msconfig, i cannot really continue to try and isolate every single little thing. especially since the only thing that has changed since before reinstalling windows is at most the version of itunes.
    with as many posts as there were about how itunes(and not just this version) had screwed over many peoples ability to use it after updating... i would have imagined there would be some zeroing in on an issue that apparently keeps repeating itself, or at least an effective way to trouble shoot it.

    thank you for your response,
    i did go through and make these changes to the services, which did allow me to open itunes after than next restart. i dont recall turning off advanced system care amongst others during my msconfig troubleshooting making any difference.
    is reinstalling advanced system care just a hope that i could keep both programs if i reinstalled? or that installing it after itunes somehow cant alter or prohibit something that itunes needs to run?
    i will look into it, but i dont recall which extension of itunes is relevant to syncing ipods but if bonjour isnt that i may just leave it as is(unless leaving it disabled somehow hurts itunes in the long run).
    i dont have the time to do anything with reinstalling immediately but at least i can now run the program. i had no idea what advanced system care might have done(and if its being installed was enough to inhibit itunes as i also have gamebooster by them).

    so i would like be so happy if someone helped meee!

    hi kristen!
    iTunes has encountered a problme and needs to close.
    the first thing i check for with one of those is a broken quicktime. does your quicktime currently launch?
    if not, first try a careful standalone QT install. see:
    b noir, "QuickTime Installation FAILED!! "Error Code: -1"" #1, 09:31am Oct 22, 2005 CDT
    keep us posted.
