HT203175 I can not start itunes or in safe mode?

Itunes will not open.  I have tried in regular mode and in safe mode and I keep getting the same message.  I am running in windows xp.  I have tried following the troubleshooting tips but have gotten no farther.

Note that Install DVDs are model specific so you can only use one from a MBP that is the exact model as yours.  Otherwise the disk will not work.  Duplicate Leopard disks may be obtained from Apple Customer service.  You will have to provide them with the serial number of the MBP (on the bottom) and there is a charge.
Based on the symptoms that you describe, your internal HDD has failed and will have to be replaced.

  • Firefox Application will not start unless in PC Safe Mode

    == Issue
    ==
    I have another kind of problem with Firefox
    == Description
    ==
    A couple of days ago after seemingly working fine the day before Firefox suddenly decided to stop working. I seem to recall updating both my Adobe Flash and my Java on that day, and I'm also not 100% sure that I didn't change my Overclock settings too (but I think I did that and Firefox was still working)
    Basically if I "start" Firefox from any location be it shortcut, direct executable or otherwise the application does not "run" I get the process but that is all. I have tried renaming to various combinations but still nothing appears to have any effect. Using the -profilemanager suffix in my shortcut / startmenu search and creating and using a new Profile has no effect either as does deletion, and Firefox Safe Mode shows the settings window but after choosing to open in safe mode nothing happens and I am left with the Firefox process hanging there doing nothing. I have tried multiple compatibility and administrator run settings but no effect.
    I have uninstalled, reinstalled. Done full cleans deleting everything to do with Firefox and its Profiles. Uninstalled Flash and Java, and then Reinstalling FF. I have scoured the registy deleting anything obviously connected to Firefox, Mozilla and even Java to no effect (I have not cleaned out for Flash due to having multiple Adobe apps which I would prefer not to screw up.) I have downgraded from 3.6.3 to 3.6.2 and as far as 3.5.1 and then doing upgrade to the new 3.6.4. All with the help of my CCleaner to tie off any loose ends, but nothing seems to work. Can't restore pc to earlier date as I only remembered about it after I had already made too many changes.
    The only time I can manage to run Firefox properly at all is when I am in Windows Safe Mode, I am sick of Google Chrome as it feels really slow and I also dislike Safari, Opera and Internet Explorer. I really do not know what else to do and would really appreciate some help so that I may use the only good browser that I have found again.

    Firefox will only open in safe mode and other issues in Firefox 3.6.8
    Rig / Set-up:
    Win 7 (U.S.) / Ultimate 32bit
    • P.O.S. Internet Explorer not installed…
    • Firefox Default Browser
    This Event:
    1. Firefox will immediately close after opening 2 blank (Untitled) tabs and /or 2 (Untitled) windows.
    2. Firefox will not open a 2nd time.
    3. Firefox will only open in Safe-mode (.exe))
    4. Firefox excruciating slow Start-Up
    5. Firefox web –surfing unbearably slow
    6. Firefox unpleasant web page hanging behavior
    7. Firefox awful flash content behavior / Obnoxious Adobe Flash Player has always been and will always be crap.
    The Cause:
    Session Manager = Corruption …!!!
    o This issue was created by faulty and inconsistent and flawed M$ Win 7 legacy software support for Hardware.
     The Keyboard / Hardware would generate a separate session manager event with the action/Web key.
     Firefox and/or TabMixPlus session manger were corrupted in the event process.
    The Source:
    A: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate32-US Version = substandard legacy device handling :
    B: Hardware/Keyboard (shortcut) Customization Software Conflicts causing Corruptions of Firefox-Session Manger.
    The Fix..!!!
    I. Remove from Add and Remove Programs (Win7) Hardware/Keyboard Software “only”. ..Special note: Win 7 Updated- Hardware/Keyboard Device driver does not have to be removed...!!
    II. Clean and remove all Instances of Keyboard software.
    a. The “Best-est and Safest” Registry Cleaner is jv16 2010 Power Tools.
    b. Restart Computer.
    III. “If” available install an older version of your “Hardware/keyboard software” compatible with Win 7 that will allow some customization of Hardware/Keyboard-keys.
    Confirm fix by:
    1. Restart Firefox from Hardware/Keyboard key (shortcut).
    2. Clean-up Internet crap and corrupted session managers...
    3. Test Launch keyboard shortcut of Firefox.exe [“after” a clean-up of all internet crap]…
    4. Test launch keyboard shortcut again / use Firefox extensively or normal use for any recurring bad web behavior.
    If Corruption events occur again:
    i. Use different and / or Older Keyboard “software” with win 7.
    ii. Or you will have to wait for a Win 7 Hardware/Keyboard software update for keyboard installed.
    Note:
    “Do not use the hardware or keyboard shortcut-key for Web Browsing… Or else: // This Event (See Above): …Will Continue..!!!..”
    And it is “not” a Firefox 3.6.8 issue.
    So, look elsewhere.
    Look @ the main culprits:
    a. Substandard legacy device handling: Micro$oft Windows Operating System in combination / with.
    b. Customization Software for your keyboard or other hardware that generates web functions and web sessions. / Hardware driver may not be the problem.
    Add-on:
    Flash Switcher Win / 1.0.2_
    DownThemAll! / 1.1.10__
    Personal Menu / 4.3.2__
    Tab Mix Plus / 0.3.8.4__
    Theme Font Size Changer / 0.2_
    MR Tech Toolkit / 6.0.4__
    Menu Editor / 1.2.6
    It is with hope that this solution may help someone.?
    Happy Foxing..!!!

  • Blackberry 9800 Torch not starting up or entering Safe mode

    Hi all,
    I am owner of a Blackberry 9800 Torch for about a year and now it does not startup. I turned the phone off last night and this morning it does not start up. I didn't make any changes to the phone so very strange. 
    The behaviour is that when I take the battery out and it turns on, the load screen start but the little white line only starts a little(2mm line) and then it restarts and does the same thing and loop over and over again in this till battery runs out. 
    I have tired to enter Safe mode by holding in the Escape bottom when the load screen starts or when the red light turn off but it does not enter Safe mode.
    Please can anybody advise how I can fix this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Stefan

    Are you able to restart your device in safe mode as shown in KB17877?
    I assume, since it's caught in a reboot cycle, when you connect to the Desktop Software it doesn't take a stable connection to reinstall your software?
    If that is case, remove your battery and keep it out when you connect to the Desktop Software. You will get a pop up that the device can't connect and there should be Retry, Update and Cancel buttons. Select Update and you will then be able to reinstall the current device software version.
    When the load is progressing, you will see a step that says "Wait for device initialization". At this point, insert the battery and the reload should complete.

  • I can't start my MacBook in safe mode or recovery mode

    I have a 2009 MacBook pro (bought in August), I am running Mavericks on it  Not entirely sure the exact patch. Last night it froze up on me out of the blue. I was able to move the mouse but wasn't able to click anything, open applications or even pull up the force quit window. The cursor was replaced by the psychedelic pinwheel. I turned off my computer by holding down the power button. When I went to turn it back on the Apple logo appeared with a loading bar. After the bar was about 50% of the way through the logo and status bar were replaced by a prohibitory sign. I then tried to boot in safe mode and got the same results. I have also tried to boot from the recovery drive. I held down the option key (the cmd+R method doesn't seem to do anything) and selected the recovery drive but received the same results. I have also tried to boot up from an external harddrive with some time machine backups and received the same results. I do not have my copy of the install disc on me but  waiting to borrow a copy to try and boot from the cd. I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and what you did to resolve it. Or if anyone has any idea what the is causing the issue.
    Thank you for your time. Apologies for any grammatical errors. I am typing this from my phone.

  • I can not open iTunes. It started when an upgrade appeared. Now I get this message when I try to open itunes. can not find MSVCR80.dll     Then I get ERROR 7 (windows error 126)   I tried reinstalling iTunes but that did not help. Please Help Me!

    I can not open itunes on my computer. It started when an upgrade appeared. Now I get a message that states This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. I tried to reinsall the application but it did not help. I also get a message iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes   Error 7 (Windows error 126)   Please Help me!

    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.

  • I can not upgrade from 10.2 to 10.6 because of missing "itunes.msi" file.  How do I repair it? I can not remove itunes and start over.

    I can not upgrade from 10.2 to 10.6 because of missing "itunes.msi" file.  I can not delete ITunes and start over either.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Hello, bradhannan.
    This sounds like a possible permissions issue.  Try these steps.  Uninstall iTunes and all of it's components.  Next, download the newest version of iTunes and save it to your desktop rather than selecting run.  Right click on the installer package and run as administrator.  I have included a couple articles that covers how to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components.

    The other day I was prompted to update itunes.  I started to, and it crashed my itunes.  Then I tried to uninstall itunes, so that I could turn around and re-install it again.  Now I can not install itunes.  I get Runtime Error! message. R6034.  For the last two hours I have  tried deleting itunes, moving the .dll files to the desktop, restarting the computer (more times than I can count), deleting the temp files, updating my internet explorer, using the fix it program,..... 
    The two messages that I am getting are:
    Runtime Error! Program:c\Program Files (x86)\itunes\Tunes.exe     R6034   An application has made an attempt to load the c runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    Also:  Service to 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Moblie Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient priviledges to start system services.

    I too was getting the same message regarding R6034. After many frustrating hours I went to the iTunes support page and clicked on "install and update." When that page came up I scrolled on to "removing and reinstalling iTunes......" There they tell you what files need to be removed and what order to do it in so you can reinstall iTunes. My iTunes works now and I didn't lose any music.
    About the Apple Mobile Device, well that's one of the files that has to be uninstalled. When you reinstall iTunes the Apple Mobile Device is automatically reinstalled.
    Hope this works for you as it did for me. Warning: it takes about an hour to do all this.

    I strongly recommend that you install iTunes to the default C: paths. You can change the perferences to keep the actual music files on your D: partition.
