HT1725 my itunes wont open since downloading new ios7 software, what do I do :(

since downloading the new ios software my itunes store will not open, it does for a split second then disappears my apps store and everything else opens HELP please would be greatly appreciated

Have you tried closing the iTunes store app via the multitasking bar and seeing if it works when you re-open ti : double-click the home button to open the bar and then swipe the iTunes app up from there and off the top of the screen, and then click the home button to close the bar
If that doesn't fix it then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

PLEASE HELP Itunes wont open after downloading v6

COMPAQ Presario R3000 Windows XP
Please help, i have just downloaded itunes (v6) and when i try to open it, nothing happens (no error) it is in processes in task manager (as itunes.exe) but it is not actually open. I have spent many hours trying to fix this and still no luck, please someone help,
Thanks in advance
Karl

Well I don't know what "tried everything possible" means!
top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
- turning off security software such as Norton 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/)
- last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

Post back with any questions or your solution.

Itunes wont open after reinstalling new version

Any ideas on how I can get itunes to open up after installing new versions of it and quicktime?

hi keymobfan!
I think I have seen your replies on other threads. Thanks for trying to help. Is there any way to get a group answer to these questions instead of each one of us with an individual thread?
fair question. for some problems (like chkdsk) a consolidated thread approach is helpful (although Da Gopha would be the best authority on whether or not that's the case). but in practice (with the launch errors) it's best to treat the different cases individually and in independent threads.
there are several different reasons. here are a few of the main ones.
(1) there are two major classes of "launch failure" problems: ones where you get an error message and ones where you don't. sensible everyday-folks typically use the same language to describe the problems, and often don't provide details which would let you work out which class of problems are in play. So, since the treatments for different error messages differ, and also differ from the treatments for the error-less ones, we usually have to check at least once to work out what's going on.
(2) even if we work out that it's (say) an errorless launch failures, there are (currently) three main causes of errorless launch failures. the treatments for each of those three (not to mention the rarer possibilities) are radically different, and some of them are fairly involved. so we typically need to do some diagnostic work to work out what is going on in each case.
(3) sometimes it takes a while (several posts back and forth) to work out what's going on. and more often than not (in multiperson threads) where people are all saying they have the same problem, there turns out to be different problems in play ... and the diagnosis and treatment work for one person ends up being irrelevant (and occasionally inadvisable) for other people in the thread. and every single one of those "irrelevant" posts generates an email notification to the other people in the thread. so people end up accidentally spamming each other in those big consolidated threads.
(4) even when it is clear that there is more than one different problem going on in a thread, you'll still get people leaping into the thread to say "i've got the same problem!" and nothing more (generating another email notification), and with no clear indication (or no indication whatsoever) as to what problem they might have, or at what stage of the diagnosis/troubleshooting process they might be at. so if we were going to deal with them in that thread, we would have to start the diagnostic procedure (generating more email notifications) ...
(5) typically at this stage of proceedings, people start posting in the big threads saying that they can't follow what is going on, because navigation is difficult (generating a new email notification). there's a tendency also for new posters who aren't familiar with the way the reply controls work (and can't really be blamed for that) to post in inappropriate places in "sub-strands" in the threads, making navigation even more difficult.
(6) if you're one of the "advice providers" unfortunate enough to have a good reputation in the forums, and you're spending a lot of time in a particular huge and unweildy thread trying to fix some problems, and people notice that you're posting a lot in there, they have a tendency to threadjack in there in order to try to get your attention, no matter what problem they may happen to have (generating more email notifications) ...
(7) launch problems evolve over time for us, so the fact that a treatment protocol worked and was appropriate for some people at the beginning of a thread is no guarantee that it will help people posting in later. (the NIS 2005 and Ipod Service Errors are two classic examples of that that i can recall.) so it's helpful to let some possible treatments die, so you're not having to say, "no, you should actually do this nowadays" all the time.
and so on, and so on, and so forth ... i could go on, but i'm just getting depressed even thinking about this at the moment. (which is a bad thing. i don't want to have to change my Zoloft dosage again. the transitional effects compromise my ability to give advice.)
so, do a search on "post new topic" constrained by the alias "b noir" and you'll see (probably) dozens of "start your own thread please" posts in recent weeks. on due consideration, i decided it was the better way to approach these problems.

Safari wont open after downloading 'genieo', its taken over homepage on internet and only opens for 1 second before closing rapidly. deleted it but still cant open internet. please HELP!

safari wont open since downloading 'genieo' stupidly, well by accident i just looked what it is up..... as needed to crop song quickly and must have been on that page/..., i moved it to trash and removed it everywhere i could see it but its still taken over safari and so web page closes after 1 second of opening so i cant use it. There are removal instructions etc online but i cant get online to do them! how can i sort this out if i cant use the internet and change my homepage etc? Will people at Apple store be able to do this for me?

There are some instructions that take time with some attention to detail to attempt and also remove all parts of the genieo and other adware malware bad content that come with visiting or downloading a variety of web sites which may spread their ilk to those who unknowingly or unwittingly get downloads or install content that has been doctored with some untoward idea in mind. Some of the posers do this to disrupt or sell more dysfunctional cures to their created mischief. The cure (incl their uninstaller) may be as bad as the problem.
•The Safe Mac - Tech Guides: Note 'adware removal & others' here
http://www.thesafemac.com/tech-guides/
Genieo is a specific issue and has a section in there.
http://www.thesafemac.com/?s=genieo&submit=Search
For general adware, a script (beta, if you try luck)
is available but it may not touch genieo...
•Adware Removal Tool (applescript)
http://www.thesafemac.com/art/
The browser issue is covered under one of the topic areas, as that may also include a re-direct device where an extra button or home page to junk keeps loading. Incorrect removal of the badware may cause Safari to fail. However, you can get use a different browser to get information such as visit the above site, or here, etc.
I do not know if the techs or genius at Apple Store would be able to remove the problem. One way it to erase everything on the computer, and start all over, and lose all your stuff. You should have a backup of your created content on a drive external to your computer, in addition to TimeMachine backups, for restoration purposes; this done before an issue strikes. The methods of removal are covered in the linked pages above.
Another way, as suggested in detail by Linc Davis, can be followed and perhaps resolve the issue, too; at some point this topic thread will be seen by more than a few people. This is not a new topic here.
Good luck & happy computing!

TS1424 my icons itunes wont open so i removed program and downloaded new itunes and it still wont open

my icon itunes wont open so i removed it and downloaded it 3 times and it still wont open

Do you get an error message when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

Itunes wont open at all, error message : quicktime was not found .... please reinstall ... i did that but no luck this only seems to have happened since the 10.4 update, im on windows 7 ..

Can you start QuickTime on your computer?
You'll probably have to search for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and use it to remove QuickTime Player and iTunes. Then download and install the iTunes again.

ITunes wont open from my external hard drive onto my new laptop

i have an external hard drive connected to my desktop with all my itunes music on there. but when i connect the external to my new laptop, itunes wont open. it says i dont have itunes support or something like that. and the reason i have my music on the external is so i CAN open itunes from another computer. but this isnt happening right now. someone please help.

yea it is an error 2
Many thanks.
We'll try a "standalone" installation of Apple Application Support, then. (It may not install, but at least we'll have a better idea of what the problem is, based on any error messages we might get.)
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us no what it says. (Precise text, please.)

ITunes wont open at all since incomplete update

Tried to install latest update and rec'd an error code. Ever since then (2 days ago) itunes wont open at all. I tried to install again via the Apple website.. Still wont open. Should I uninstall and reinstall? Will my library remain stored?

Try the following:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components

My Itunes wont open - reading error "cannot be read because it was created by a newer verdion of itunes"

My Itunes wont open - reading error "cannot be read because it was created by a newer verdion of itunes"
should i uninstall/ reinstal.
will i loose all my music nd playlists?

This technique should work...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
