Error message everytime I open iTunes
Before opening iTunes I get a message that reads:
"Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of install other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes."
I have tried repairing and removing and reinstalling itunes multiple times and the error still occurs. I also have not installed CD burning software anytime recently. The only CD burning software I have came with my computer and worked fine with the itunes prior to the download of itunes 8.0. Please help me solve this issue. Thanks.

HELP, I get a error message everytime I open iTunes
Everytime I try to open iTunes 10.7 I get a message reading:
iTunes has stopped working
A problem caused the problem to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a prblem is available.
I have Windows Vista 64bit. I can open iTunes in safe mode but otherwise it just won't open. Had this problem for months and tried everything, please help!I actually solved the issue myself. In my prior attempts, I was only un-installing iTunes from the Control Panel. This time I un-installed everything Apple: ITunes, QuickTime, and any software application that was from Apple.
Once I removed all of the Apple software and re-downloaded iTunes, everything worked perfectly. -
Still unable to download itunes to my pc. Tried with IE, Mozilla and Google Chrome. Keep getting an error message :"Windows cannot open itunes.exe the file is corrupt contact support."previous itunes files were wipped out by "disk cleaner." Any help??
Please!
Thanks!If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem. -
Error message when I open itunes what can I do?
Everytime I try to download itunes, quicktime kept getting corrupted or everytime I opened it a message saying "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" would pop up and then it would never open. I really want to change the music that's on my ipod. What shall I do? Ive tried deleting everything and starting again but some of it won't delete so I dont know what to do. I think it is someting to do with quicktime it just stopped working a couple of years ago and i can't fix it. when I click on quicktime the same message comes up for itunes the code looks somthing like this "EventType : BEX P1 : QuickTimePlayer.exe P2 : 7.55.90.70
P3 : 49010a8b P4 : QuickTimePlayer.exe P5 : 7.55.90.70 P6 : 49010a8b
P7 : 0000130d P8 : c0000409 P9 : 00000000". Can anyone help?

You need to answer the questions in my first post.
It is important to remove incompatible programs if you have them.
When you get that fatal error uninstalling quicktime, it is best to remove all the iTunes related programs and do an installer clean up on any that do not uninstall.
Here is a method:
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
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.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes. -
When I open iTunes I keep getting a error message asking me to reinstall iTunes 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message. Does anyone know a fix for this?
This is obviously a problem apple! Please look at your community boards and see that a number of people have issues with the latest update and sort out.
I have tried a number of times to install the update and have failed getting the same message as you. Tried with the 32 bit instead & no luck. Ive come on here to see if anyone else has a solution & found we all have the same problem. Someone else tried the old uninstall reinstall trick to no avail. Please sort this out apple!! -
Error message when i open itunes
Hello,
Can anyone help me with this? I get this error message every time I plug my ipod in and open itunes. Also the do not disconnect message flashes constantly and will not go away. I've tried everything the website and the message boards suggest. I'm not that technologically savvy, so I am doing everything I can. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and updated and restored my ipod. I don't know what to do. Here is the error message:
\itunes_control\itunes\itunesDB is corrupt and unreadable, run chkdsk utilityHello there,
Are you sure the message doesn't say "ipod_control"...?
There's an Apple KB article on this issue:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300554
You'll want to Restore your iPod using the latest iPod Updater...
Kind regards,
Gopha. -
I get an error 42110 upon opening itunes. It has no effect on downloading to or playing my library. However when I try to print a jewel case insert the text prints over its self. How do I fix this. It only started recently.

Error message (13013) when opening iTunes
Can anyone help with this enquiry. I amm trying to open iTunes but the following error message pops up when I do this: "the iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (13013)". I have been able to unistall & reinstall iTunes but am unable to open it. Help please.
A couple of things to try.
Try deleting "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" from your iTunes folder.
If that doesn't work, try rebuilding your library.
With iTunes closed, drag iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Library.xml out of you iTunes folder to your desktop.
Then try opening iTunes, if iTunes opens, you will have an empty library, then you can import iTunes Library.xml.
There are instructions here:

Any help you could give would be awesome!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.
If you've already tried something like the above then try opening iTunes in safe mode (press and hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases. You may find that iTunes opens normally now.

It doesn't let me copy the technical info I can't forward it I am so frustrated... I can't use my firefox
What is the error message?
Without seeing the error message this is just a guess, but a common cause of error messages is a problematic add-on. You can try the procedure in the [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article to see if it helps. -
Have had Itunes on this computer literally for years. This AM message "MSVCR80.dll not found, not installed correctly Error 7 (Windows error 126) "- and could not download (it wanted a mobile device - I don't have one)

If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:
HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

After upgrading to LION, I receive following error message when I open iTunes:
"We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occured (-42408)."
Firewall turned on in System Preferences > Security?
If you have anti virus software installed, try disabling that.
And try this..
Launch iTunes on your Mac.
From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Reset warnings and Reset cache
Click OK.
Restart your Mac. Try the iTunes Store. -
After trying to delete the .plist I realised my iTunes had become corrupted and needed to be reinstalled. This may not be a fix for everyone, but here is how I uninstalled and reinstalled. iTunes comes preinstalled as part of OS X, and is considered “required” software by the operating system. If you therefore try to simply drag the iTunes application file to the Trash, the system will stop you and present a warning message. The warning is a bit exaggerated, of course. iTunes isn’t required for the basic operation of OS X. To disregard OS X’s warning and uninstall iTunes, navigate to the Applications folder and find the iTunes app file (/Applications/iTunes.app). Right-click (or Control-click) on iTunes and select Get Info. Locate and click on the padlock icon on the bottom right side of the window and enter your admin password. This is necessary in order to make changes to the app’s permission settings. Next, expand the Sharing & Permissions section of the window if it’s not already visible and change the privileges for “everyone” to Read & Write. This will give us complete control of the iTunes application so that we can override the operating system’s warning and delete it. Close the Get Info window and try again to drag the iTunes application file to the Trash. This time, there’s no warning, and the file is immediately trashed. Empty the Trash to complete the process. If you wish to reinstall iTunes, just launch the Mac App Store’s Software Update section (or the old standalone Software Update if you’re running a version of OS X prior to Mountain Lion.) With iTunes absent from your hard drive, Software Update will automatically offer to install it for you again.
Cheers again!
That seems to have done the trick!
Regards,
Jim
