Everytime I try and load Itunes it says it has stopped working

Everytime I try and load Itunes it says it has stopped working and when I click on the message it closes the whole program down.  I have tried the trouble shoot compatability but it just says incompatible application detected.  I am not very tecnical but have tried to uninstall the programs and re install them but with no luck.  This problem started after I added a new album but I have now removed it from the computer.  Help!

Let's try something relatively simple. Download and save a copy of the installer to your hard drive (don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet):
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now right-click on the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) that you downloaded and select "Run as administrator".
Does that go through any better for you?

  • HT1926 Everytime I try and install iTunes it says "the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation".  does anyone know what this means?

    I am using my partners computer.  He has iTunes on his laptop but when I went to update iTunes, it said "the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation".  I therefore deleted iTunes altogether thinking to reinstall the original iTunes and then upgrade it (i,e start from scratch) but to know avail.  Is this a problem with my laptop itself?  Or a problem with the internet settings?

  • Everytime i try and open itunes is says "this short cut has been changed or moved, do you want to delete it?" well no, i just want my music!

    The last few weeks my computer has been unable to complete the most recent update for itunes and when i tried opening it today i keep getting this stupid error message. I am not computer "smart" but have tried several things and can not get to work. Are all my songs gone, what about my gift card with a remaining balance? HELP

    Hello Julie,
    Your songs and iTunes balance are fine, they are not influenced by the iTunes applications or any issues it may have. The message you are experiencing indicates the folder where iTunes is saved has changed, or no longer exists. Since you are using a shortcut (a link to where the application iTunes is installed) and you're getting this message, it means the iTunes application is not where it used to be located.
    I would suggest trying to reinstall iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes and let us know if you encounter any errors messages.

    Hello there Unicornbarf534,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you are unable to successfully install iTunes. I recommend the troubleshooting instructions in this article named:
    Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    Here is a general outline of where the troubleshooting will take you:
    General installation troubleshooting
    1. Empty your Temp directory and restart
    2. Completely remove iTunes and related components
    3. Install the latest version of iTunes
    Additional troubleshooting
    After performing each of the steps below, you will need to completely remove iTunes and related components and then install iTunes again to determine whether the issue is resolved.
    1. Make sure you have administrator account access
    2. Make sure your folder names don't contain strange characters
    3. Get the latest Windows updates
    4. Disable other conflicting software
    Additional Information
    If you only need to install QuickTime, or if iTunes installs but QuickTime installation did not complete
    Try downloading and installing the standalone version of QuickTime from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/. Be sure you download the version that does not include iTunes.
    If the steps outlined in this article don't help, you may be able to find a solution to your issue by searching the Microsoft support website.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Everytime I try to download itunes it says, Itunes Installer Interrupted?!

    I was originally having problems downloading itunes because I couldn't get Quicktime and Itunes off my computer, but I download a program called Byetunes that completely deleted itunes from my computer. Unfortunately now every time it gets finish downloading Quicktime it stops and shows this message:
    Itunes Installer Interrupted.
    The installer was interrupted before the requested operations for Itunes could be completed. Your system has not beem modified. To complete these operations at a later date, please run the installer again.
    Does anyone know what I should do to fix my problem!?

    Unfortunately I do not know what byeitunes does, but I have just seen another thread in which there was trouble installing iTunes after using byeitunes.
    As a first step when you say +Everytime I try to download itunes it says, Itunes Installer Interrupted?+
    Are you saving the installer on your PC before attempting to install iTunes. Do that if you haven't already done so.
    Then try installing itunes again and give the full text of any error message.
    Look in your Event Viewer to see if there are any error messages there around the time of the install
    To find the event viewer, right click on my computer and select manage.

    Are you running Leopard on your Mac, Laurie?
    If so, try instead updating to iTunes 10.6.3.25. (That supports earlier models of iPhones running iOS 6, even though it can't run the new iPhone 5s.)
    A .dmg installer for iTunes version 10.6.3.25 for Mac OS can be found at the following download page on the Apple website:
    iTunes 10.6.3

    Same problem as well as the network failure. Apple Care was suggesting a full reinstall and I declined. I thought it worked once but I can't be sure ... it might have been Skype which works perfectly.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Why is iPHOTO CRASHING everytime I try and load it.  This has been going on for at least most of November?

    Everytime I try and load iPhot it crashes and the same error message comes up and I send it to Apple.  I haven't been able to get into iPhoto for most of November and the patches Apple have issued don't help.  Any ideas?

    The usual ones, delete your preferences, repair permissions and try to start it up with a new library.  Temporarily rename your current library so that iPhoto will create a new one on startup.

  • HT201317 MY ICLOUD STOPPED WORKING ON MY LAPTOP. MESSAGE SAYS IT HAS STOPPED WORKING AND MICROSOFT WILL TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    icloud has worked perfectly. now a message comes up saying" it has stopped working and microsoft will attempt to fix the problem". I have signed out and signed back in. restarted the computer. no luck. Any ideas?

    First thing I would try would be to remove the battery from your MacBook, connect the computer to it's power adapter and start up, then see if the keyboard and trackpad work normally. Some older batteries have been known to expand and interfere with keyboard and trackpad. If this works, replace the battery.
    Best of luck.

  • Browser Install Fails, it says "Firefox has stopped working" and it does not install. I cant use your browser.

    I had few issues with Mozzilla browser so i uninstalled it completely and tried to re install it again. But when i try to reinstall it , it does not install fully , it breaks half way and says, Firefox has stopped working. I cant install Firefox now. Can you help.

    Try this instead:
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Start the installation with a double-click on the desktop icon
    Make sure that your security software isn't causing problems.
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

    The Welcome screen somes up but then fades and error message says "Photoshop has stopped working."  Then Windows closes the program.
