Download iTunes, Comp won't Start

I tried to download iTunes about a month ago. After download I resarted my computer and it froze on the "please wait" screen right before I enter my password. I uninstalled iTunes. In the mean time my brother wiped my comp clean and we began from scratch. I tried iTunes again a few weeks ago and my computer froze at the same screen. What can I do to fix this issue? Is there a program that is interferring? I'm lost..obviously.. Thanks

Do you have some sort of virus protection/firewall software installed that may be interferring with the installation of iTunes?
Can you try downloading the iTunes installer program to your desktop, then turning off all virus/firewall/spyware protection and installing?
To download to your desktop, when the installer box opens, instead of choosing "install", choose "save" and then save the program to your desktop. Once the download has completed, close the itunes box. Close any programs running on your computer and then try to install iTunes. (I hope this works for you!)

  • After downloading iTunes, it won't open stating need Internet connection. But already connected to Internet. Happened on 2 different computers. How can I resolve this?

    After downloading iTunes,it won't open stating need Internet connection. Have Internet connection but program apparently doesn't recognize it. How can I resolve. This happened on 2 different computers.

    If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
    Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.

    On your Computer... Open iTunes...
    and from the Menu Bar select Store...
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.

  • New itunes 5 won't start after download

    I downloaded iutnes 5 and now when I click on the desktop icon or the one in the start menu itunes won't start! I also downloaded Norton Internet Security recently so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Can someone please offer a suggestion as to what I can do to start my itunes. I've wasted so many hours already trying to get it to work....Thanks

    Yes, it could be you have "zombie" itunes in your tasks.
    But I think it is more likely that some firewall/security software like "norton" is stopping net-enabled software from running. You could look at the task explorer to see if itunes is launching. I prefer the excellent, and free, process explorer from sysinternals.com. For one it is better at stopping zombie processes than task manager.

    So if you don't see any "itunes" or "ipod" processes running then you need to see about enabling them in your "Norton Internet Security"

  • ITunes 6 won't start (dosen't have to do with norton)

    Keep in mind that my iTunes has been working just fine, but ever since I downloaded 6 I've been getting errors left and right. So, heres what happens. I install iTunes 6, and it installs fine. When I click the icon, I get the following error (copy and paste URL) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/N8NESS/error.jpg
    So anyway after re-installing and re-booting several times to no avail, I figure "okay, well, since it started not working ever since I downloaded 6, I'll just re-install my old iTunes", right? WRONG! I install the old version (the most up to date version BEFORE 6), and it comes up with some crap about how Quicktime wasen't installed right. I even installed an even OLDER version, and it came up with another quicktime error. I would show a screen shot of that too,

    hi Nate!
    the first thing we check for with the "itunes has encountered an error ..." is a broken quicktime. First see:

    keep us posted. if you get a new error message on the QT install, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you get any.
    love, b

  • Itunes just won't start after the upgrade

    I've upgraded my itunes, and done all the double checks I've found on this site. My itunes just will not start after the upgrade. It's frustrating to say the least because I can't even access my libary or edit my ipod. I've tried everything including uninstalling and reinstalling.. please help! I wanted to put my audio books on my ipod for a roadtrip tomorrow!

    Thanks Katrina. I was able to find what I needed through the link that you provided.
    To those that are having this problem, here's what I did to fix this issue:
    +If I have a computer or device that does not work well with an AWD with the latest update, how can I install previous (earlier) versions of firmware?+
    +1. Open AirPort Utility.+
    +2. From the AirPort Utility menu, hold the Option key *(Control key in Windows XP and Vista)* and choose Check for Updates....+
    +3. Select the specific firmware version you require.+
    +4. Click Download.+
    +5. Select your base station and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click on the AWD icon.+
    +6. Choose Base Station > Upload Firmware.+
    +7. Select a firmware version and click OK.+
    +An important note about installing firmware+
    +After you have successfully installed a firmware update, AirPort Utility will wait for the AWD to restart. Once the AWD is available, AirPort Utility will display the standard configuration setup window with the Manual Setup and Continue buttons. Unless you intentionally wish to change some configuration of one of your apple Wireless Devices, you do not need to click Continue. At this point, simply quit AirPort Utility. Your AWD should be functioning correctly.+

    I chose firmware: Airport Extreme with 8-2.11n (Fast Ethernet) 7.3.2 Be patient, as Airport Utility will report that it can't find the AEBS, but after a short while mine was back. I did not roll back my version of Airport Utility.
    All appears to be normal and the iTunes library is rebuilding as I type this. Hopefully, Apple will figure out what's causing the problem with firmware 7.4.1

  • Itunes installer won't start

    Itunes 64bit installer wont start on my Windows vista/7 64 bit computers.
    You double click and nothing happens. You right click and run as administrator nothing happens.
    I've tried formatting the machines and re downloading it from apple.com and still nothing happens.
    Anyone else having problems?

    You double click and nothing happens. You right click and run as administrator nothing happens.
    I've tried formatting the machines and re downloading it from apple.com and still nothing happens.
    This one can be caused by the installer getting damaged on the download.
    What browser are you using for the download? Does it make any difference in the performance of the installer if you user Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa)?

  • Downloaded itune correctly but wont start or is missing!!!

    I downloaded itune correctly, but when the finish screen popped up i didnt get the start iturn and the folder is missing n i had also clicked to add desktop icon for it. I follow every step. I downloaded it in adminitration n i even upgraded quicktime from apple.com. Can anyone tell what i did wrong plz?

    Can we do one thing at a time ?
    You downloaded the install, security software disabled, and saved it to disk?
    Pick up from there.
    We have to back track to find the answer so some history/specs about your computer would help.

  • Recurring iTunes problem; won't start/errors

    There is a recurring problem with iTunes version 7.7. It has also occurred on versions from 7.4 through 7.6. Upgrading to iTunes 7.7 results in a no-start for iTunes. No errors or messages. It shows up in processes. If all Apple software is removed and registries edited, then re-install results in iTunes not starting with error like "App failed to start because SCARDDLG.dll cound not be found". This is Smart Card service (which I dont' use but iTunes wants). If Smart Card services are installed/started, iTunes will still not start (but no fatal error msg. or any messages at all).
    I have removed/reinstalled several times. I have been through the MS methods for crypto services, edg.log rename, etc. It has still not helped. At this point I may have to resort to the same method when iTunes 7.4 gave this same problem. Get rid of all your APple software and re-install 7.3 from one of the retro software sites, i.e. oldapps.com. It also means you can forget about using your iPhone and many other newer Apple devices.
    I would have thought that since this problem has been around for at least 4 versions and many users won't buy Apple products like iPhones since they can't use them on systems that won't run Apple software, that maybe this would be motivation for Apple to fix the problem and/or publish a solution. BTW; I am running Trend Micro and yes, ports and web addresses are configured for proper access.

    There is a solution here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1661935

  • When downloading itunes 10.5 it starts to load and freezes for no reason. Does anyone have a clue why?

    When downloading itunes 10.5 on a windows 7 laptop it just freezes at about 98% for no apparent reason.  Please help?!

    I agree with you that something needs to change.
    I am a long time Macintosh user and Apple fan. I was using iTunes to download video podcasts to my iPod for a while before I realized that the list all buttons list all of the "Featured" podcasts only. I had no idea how much content was out there.
    I also take issue with the listings on iTunes. There is a Tiger Woods podcast that is killing all the other podcasts in terms of popularity. The problem is, it isn't really a podcast. It is simply a commercial that is in iPod format. This hardly deserves the spot in ITMS that it has. It is not updated or new, but it is listed as new and notable. As if Tiger needs more press.
    It seems that the big money podcasts get billing and premiere placement in the store. I hope they give some sort of fair time in the spotlight to podcasts that are regularly updated.

  • Download iTunes trailers won't play

    Hi guys,
    anyone else having trouble viewing downloaded iTunes Theatrical Trailers? They get the QuickTime icon on them and not the thumbnail, and when it comes to playback, they just show a black image.
    Thanks

    Same problem. So far I've had playback problems with one of the Captain Phillips trailer (the one posted in August) and all of The Mortal Instruments. Happening on multiple computers. I think Apple will have to fix this one on their end. Wouldn't hurt to post which trailers were having this problem in case anyone who can fix it reads this thread.

  • MOVED: Comp won't start after BIOS Update

    This topic has been moved to BIOS.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=118639.0

    Hello all
    I just updated my X301 (2776LEG) with the 3.12-1.05 bios. Now my laptop won't start up when running on battery, it powers on for a short while and powers off again. This cycling keeps on going (after 30min I switched it off!) but as soon as i connect the power adapter it boots fine. Seems like this bios update f****ed up the battery power part of the computer....
    I tried the bios battery trick but it only worked on the first boot and after that the same problem is present.
    I have added 2gigs extra memory and a ultrabay battery and it has been working 100% for about a year now. This error started right after the bios update...
    Thought that a reflash of the bios would solve the problem but i cannot reflash the bios with the same bios version...
    Any ideas ?
    Kind regards
    Tommy

  • Download iTunes 10 won't go away

    Someone please help! I cannot get this message to go away on my iTunes. I am not able to even access the iTunes store because of the message "Download iTunes 10 Now"

    Are there any options like OK, Cancel, Install, Remind Me Later?
    Why not simply install the latest version of iTunes?
    You can always just kill iTunes using Task Manager and then restart it.

  • ITunes 7 won't start with Digidesign hardware

    Hi, I do not hope I am the only one out here, that are experiencing a major problem in the new iTunes 7.
    IT SIMPLY WONT START!
    I used to run iTunes 6.x.x over my Digidesign Audio hardware (M Box 2), with no problems at all. But after upgrading to version 7, the app fails to load. (Error 0x666d743f)
    I'm pretty sure the problem is, that the new iTunes don't support Digidesign hardware. Because I also tested version 7 on a Digirack 002 audiocard and got the same error.
    This must be an undiscorved error for Apple, because you are able to buy M Box 2 at the Apple Store. (Why would Apple sell a audiocard that is uncompatable with iTunes??)
    I hope some of you knows some more about this problem, I suppose we are a lot of people who would like some kind of solution.

    So I try to uninstall Quciktime, but guess what? The uninstaller refuses to work and it won't appear in the "Add/remove" programs control panel applet.
    let's try this 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, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    after the PC has restarted, we'll try to get a fresh copy of QuickTime into that PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    in Add/Remove, select iTunes. click "Change", and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, does iTunes launch properly again?
