Error message when starting itunes

"itunes cannot run because it has detected an error with your audio configuration"
Does anyone have any clue what I need to do to fix this problem. I have tried downloading it again and I still receive the same problem.
I have been using itunes for years and this problem is just now occuring.
Thanks everyone!

Perhaps this Apple Knowledgebase article will help:
iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
Good luck.

  • I keep getting an error message when starting iTunes

    When I start iTunes I get an error message that says "iTunes cannot run because some of its required filles are missing. Please reinstall iTunes" I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still getting the same error message. If I reboot my computer iTunes opens with no problem but if I close iTunes and try reopening it without rebooting I get the error message. I have the most recent version. My OS is Windows XP Pro SP3. Does anyone have an answer that can resolve this issue?

    Hey SDGardella,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are receiving error 499 when attempting to download purchases from the iTunes Store. The following resource outlines this error message:
    iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
    "Error 499"
    This alert occurs due to security software. Follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Thanks,

  • I get an error message when starting itunes

    Hi, i'v ehad this problem for a while .. i'm not a computer expert but i do my best. I get an error message when clicking to start iTunes ... can someone help me ! i don't want to lose my songs !

    top fixes are
    - turning off security software before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    In your case, if iTunes was working OK for a while and then mysteriously stopped, youve got a virus, I bet. Do the ewido malware scan.

  • Error messages when starting iTunes - 11556 and other. Who may help?

    Hi there,
    When starting iTunes i get to the iTunes U store. Trying to connect to the normal iTunes store, I get the following error message:
    "We could not complete your iTunes store request. The iTunes store is temporarly unavailable"
    This message I get since about one week. Further I tried to sign in and then I get the following message:
    "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occured (11556). Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    Network connection is working. iTunes connectivity diagnostics showed: all tests passed. I am using the latest version of iTunes (9.0.3.15). I tried to reinstall iTunes - did not help.
    I hope, anybody can help me.
    Regards,
    kunzro

    Hey Richard
    After I posted here I realized it was in the Windows/iTunes board. I reposted in the OS X/iTunes board along with the solution.
    I did more searching on Google and found that the store was disabled in parental controls in the iTunes Prefs. Go to iTunes prefs, click on Parental. See if iTunes store is disabled. I unchecked it and am all set. Someone mentioned that when iTunes is updated, this setting is the default.
    Hope this helps.

  • Strange error message when starting ITunes, ITunes doesn't recognise devices for wifi sync

    I have other wifi problems with my IMac running Mountain Lion but this is the most annoying. When I start ITunes it doesn't recognise that I have my IPhone 5 and my IPad 2 sitting connected to the same wifi network and waiting to sync.
    In the Console I get this error exactly when ITunes starts up:

    Google search has explained to me that this is related to Bonjour but nothing further. I have done the 'usual' - booted in safe mode, repaired permissions, updated software, reinstalled Mountain Lion via Disc Recovery, restarted my modem etc.
    Before I just wipe the hard drive and start again from scratch, maybe there's something obvious I'm not doing? Every other device in the house (2 x Iphones, 2 x Ipads, 1 Apple TV, 2 wifi radios and 1 other IMac desktop) have no problems with the wifi network.

    I am having similar issue.  Getting these same 24 error messages everytime I start iTunes. Sharing is already off.

  • Help!!I plz i'm begging plz error message when starting itunes

    it says:" itunes has encoutered a problem and needs to close we are sorry for the inconvience" everytime i click on itunes and start it it always said that plz help been trying and searching for 5 days plz plz!!!

    ok i got it but how do i move my files from the old admin to the other account?
    let's try getting the old account launching again. the fact that it is opening in the new account gives us leads on potential causes of the crashing problem.
    the first thing we'll check for is skunky iTunes preference files in the account you're getting the crash in. (there's a different set of pref files in each XP user account, which is how we can get this "launch in one account, crash in another" behavior with a pref files problem.)
    if that's what is going on, we can often get past it by rebuilding your itunes preference files in the crashing account. here's how we'll do it.
    quit itunes and log in to the account that you're crashing in.
    make sure you have "show hidden files and folders" switched on. to do that, open up My Computer, and in the Tools menu, choose "Folder Options..." Then go to the View tab, and then in the "Advanced settings", make sure that there is a check mark next to "Show hidden files and folders".
    now navigate to the following folder and open it up:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\
    ("<username>" is the name of the account you're crashing in.)
    inside, you should see an "iTunesPref.xml" file and possibly an "iTunes.pref" file. rename them "iTunes.pref1" and iTunesPref.xml1". move them to your desktop.
    now navigate to the following folder:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\
    inside, you should see another "iTunesPref.xml" file and possibly an "iTunes.pref" file. rename them "iTunes.pref2" and iTunesPref.xml2". move them to your desktop.
    now try launching iTunes again. the iTunes Setup Assistant will run again for you (you'll see the license agreement and whatnot.) this will generate new pref files.
    after the iTunes Setup assistant finishes, does your iTunes launch properly?

    Error Message when open iTunes -42032. What can I do?

    Try 2 solutions: 1.  Press both Ctrl and Shift keys then double click on ITunes.  Hold keys down until a box appears on screen indicating ITunes is starting in "safe mode'.  left click on 'continue" and ITunes will run without closing.
    2;  Start ITunes normally, then  after loading, choose "Match" and then touch "stop" beforre step 3 , Uploading songs...",  runs for more than a few seconds.  The code problems are in Match;  the uploading function in Match.  ITunes won't crash if you stop Match soon enough!

    Hi gurus,
    I'm a complete newbye searching the forums in order to decrypt what is inconsistent to me (I'm acting as a substitute for a real dba): a sapdb refusing any more connection due to an 'user space exhausted' issue.
    I do not even know if/where some admin tool is/isn't installed - eventually, what to look for - onto the running demianapachetomcat framework. Actually, all I have been provided was: 1. call 'Henplus' (done); 2. connect this way (jdbc:sapdb://localhost/database&options) and 3. select, upgrade, delete what needed. Problem arises on point (2): connection resufed 'user space exhausted'.
    My question is: this issue seems so similar to mine, how can one eventually check/modify this '/sapdb directory space'?
    Thanks in advance for any (much appreciated) hint, and be patient about my English and newbyeness (?).

  • Error message when updating Itunes...can not open Itunes program

    I am recieving error message when updating Itunes for my computer.  The error message reads "MSVCR80.dll is missing and the other error message reads Error 7  (Windows error 126)"  I can not open my Itunes.  I have reloaded the Itunes onto my computer but still have the same error messages.  Please help.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Getting error message when starting Photoshop CS3

    I am getting the following error message when starting CS3:
    "This application has failed to start because CML4.dll was not found."
    The window title is, "Photoshop.exe - Unable to Locate Component"
    Of course, the only button to push is the "OK" button (which should probably read - Something's f-d up. Press here to continue.) After pressing the OK button, CS3 starts and works without issue - so far.  I guess I haven't actually used the part of the program that uses CML4.dll or just don't see any difference with or without it.
    How can I resolve this issue - without reinstalling PSCS3? and why does it happen in the first place?

    Nikon Scanning Software has CML4.dll as part of its package.  I assume that the Nikon software did not install/uninstall properly and is causing the error.  I have not gone back to do Nikon scans within Photoshop so I do not know if it affects performance. McAfee does not flag it as a virus, and other websites I referred to indicated no viral activity associated with the file.
