HT1349 iTunes not working, had to restore computer

I had to restore my computer and now iTunes wont open because the library was created by a newer version, how do I get it to open?

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.

  • ITunes Not Working After I Restored My iPod Touch

    I went on iTunes and clicked "restore" which caused some error message to pop up that told me to re install iTunes. Thus putting me on the currently 4 hour path of trying to get iTunes to work. First it said I needed avfoundationcf.dll or something. Then after downloading a bunch of stuff that claimed to want to help but repeatedly tried to charge me. Then the error messages starting telling me that I needed some dll files. I downloaded all the files that were asked of me from a website. The last file, icuin36.dll, installed normally (I assume) but the next error pop up box told me this:
    iTunes.exe - Bad Image
    C:\Windowa\system32\icuin36.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.
    Then a second pop up box appears that says:
    iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re install iTunes
    Error 9 (Windows Error 193)
    This is where I am currently stuck. Any help would be dearly appreciated as I am on the verge of an aneurysm. Be sure to dumb down everything you say as I'm pretty stupid when it comes to computers.

    If the music play OK in iTunes on your computer
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Itunes not working after system restore

    hey i searched this and found nothing helpful.
    i did a system restore before and now my itunes won't open. it shows a message that tells me it can't open. i've reinstalled and uninstalled and everything i can think of...
    how can i fix this and make itunes work again?

    If you have an HP, you need to goto Hp.com and download a patch for your model of PC, alot of there PCs have issues with iTUnes after using there software to do a restore. If you have another brand, check there site.
    You can also try uninstalling iTunes AND quicktime, disabling antivirus and downloading/installing the latest iTunes from apple.com

  • Why will iTunes not work on my computer?

    I cannot get iTunes to work on my desktop computer. I had a crash some time ago and think it may have to do with a missing driver. I hope someone can help me with this problem. I can access iTunes on my laptop but it is not convenient.

    What computer is it?
    Have you tried to fully uninstall the program and reinstall it?

  • I have just installed iTunes for the first time. When I run the application I get a "iTunes not working" message. Operating system Vista (32 bit). I have tried reinstalling with all firewalls off, but still no success. Have other people had this problem?

    I'm am assuming you are using a windows PC. If so these steps may help you tremendously. Step 5 is usually the culprit.

  • Work around for iTunes not working with shuttle

    Well, I have found a work around for the iTunes not working the the Shuttle. It is not pretty, and many of you may not choose to follow my lead. This procedure has a lot of dumb steps in it, but in the end, one can copy data/songs to a Shuttle.
    It involves removing the current iTunes and replacing it with a version that also had a bug in it.( I told you it ain't pretty).
    Procedure:
    1. Go to this url: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipod_itunes/itunes802forwindows.html
    2. Download the old 8.0 version of iTunes for Windows.
    3. Remove the current iTunes from your computer. Note after you run the remove utility in Windows, you need to delete the iTune library that isn't removed.
    4. Install iTunes 8.0
    Here is where it gets dumb.
    This version of iTunes has a bug with the USB interface, but there is an easy work around.
    5. Make sure the Shuttle is not connected when you launch iTunes.
    6. After iTunes comeup, attach the Shuttle.
    7. iTunes should see your Shuttle.
    8. Select the music you want to upload, and drag it to the Shuttle.
    9. iTunes will just sit there, so you need to get its attention. To get its attention you must disconnect and reconnect one of your USB devices, just not the Shuttle. Some folks do their mouse, one used a USB drive, and another on used is GPS because he was working from a laptop and did not have a mouse.
    10. In a few moments, iTunes will do its thing and copy your data to the Shuttle. You must do this routine for each copy, so if you develop a Play List, you only have to do step 9 once.
    The getting the old copy of iTunes was my idea, but a gentleman from a year ago figured out the mouse step.
    I am now a happy camper, my Shuttle is full of music again.
    However, I hope Apple finds a fix for the 8.2 problem soon.
    Take care all.

    I stand corrected on the name. By the time I figured out how to copy the songs I had a few other names in mind.
    One of the first things I tried was the Reset utility. After the iTunes restore did not work, I went looking for something else. After using the utility, I connected the iPod and resynced. I had left the Autofill box checked. iTunes autofilled the iPod. I deleted those songs and tried to put a different play list in. It would not copy the songs, iTunes said there was no room even though the play list for the shuffle was empty. I looked at the settings screen and it said the iPod was full. I synced the iPod to my Mac, and that got rid of the "full" indication. That is when I started looking for an older version of iTunes, unfortunately all I could find is a version with the USB bug.

  • My itunes not working after it tried to download the new version. it keep giving error 7

    my Itunes not working after it tried to download the new version. it give me message: erro 7 or window error 193. need help. thank

    What worked for me was to uninstall from the control panel in this order: Thanks to another post on this board... this worked... link to the discussion here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5817584?tstart=0
    ITunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    I had problems uninstalling Apple Mobile Support, I had to repair it first before I could uninstall it. You will have to restart the computer after all the uninstalls, and before reinstalling ITunes. I reinstalled ITunes from the Apple website afterwards (fresh download) ... everything works for me now that I have done this.

  • Ineed some help...itunes not working

    I hope someone can help me. My itunes won't open and gives me the message itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. It then asks if you want to report it or don't report it. I have Windows XP operating system. I read a pryor post with someone with the same problem. The host told the user to download Quicktime Standalone 7.1 and provided a link (my Quicktime won't open either). The user said that she had downloaded it and restarted her computer and it had worked. I used the link and downloaded the program, but when I went to install it, it said that some files were corrupt and reinstall. I did and it gave me the same message again. I have three ipods "married" to my computer and have been told that they will not work on any other computer once they are used on one, so I really need some help!!
    Thank you
    Melissa

    hi Melissa!
    when I went to install it, it said that some files
    were corrupt and reinstall. I did and it gave me the
    same message again.
    there are some techniques for getting past the "some
    of the installation files are corrupt" in this post:
    http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&me
    ssageID=2486498
    (unfortunately, the "download from different link"
    won't be applicable in your case, since you need a
    standalone QuickTime rather than an itunes
    installer.)
    love, b
    b-
    I have issues. First of all thanks for the reply. Since I can't download from a different link (ie quicktime and itunes) I tried downloading from another browser. Alright so I got past the corrupt files message adn started the install. It asks me if I want to remove Quicktime for Windows or cancel. I remove. It starts the download adn I get this message(I tried twice and got hte same message):
    Unhandeled Exception
    Error Number:0x80040707
    Description:DLL function call crashed: QTInstall Code.QuickTimeUnInstallProc
    Setup will now terminate
    Can you help?
    Love,
