I can not open my itunes folder!!

I can not open my itunes folder. An error message pops up saying: The folder "itunes" is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder... How can i open itunes?! ive tried reinstalling and repair but its still not working

Let's try this first. Hold down the Shift key while you try to launch iTunes. You should eventually see the following dialog:
Click "Choose library". Browse to inside the following location (depending on what operating system you're running):
Operating System
Default location of iTunes library
Microsoft Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows Vista
\Users\[your username]\Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows 7
\Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
... and open the iTunes library you find in there.

    After the ios7 updated I can not open the iTunes store in my iPhone 5
    How can I fix it?

    Hi adrimomo,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Here are a few things you can try:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If you have tried those two things, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
    iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
    manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Also, check your settings for Safari -- enable cookies and turn off private browsing - see page 57 of the iPhone User Guide above.
    Cheers,

  • I can not open my iTunes anymore

    i can not open my iTunes anymore i keep on getting an error message

    Hello scrubzy,
    What are your OS X and iTunes version ?
    Try to delete iTunes Preferences :
    Go to your-user-name/Library/Preferences
    Delete all files with iTunes in their name
    Launch iTunes
    If that doesn't work, the best way is to reinstall iTunes :
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Your files (music, apps, videos...,) won't be deleted.
    Hope this will help.

  • TS1368 I can not open the itunes store on my ipod touch

    I can't open the itunes store on my ipod touch after syncing. It starts to load and just stops. It does not give me an error message.

    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.
    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in
    - 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.

  • I have an imac osx 5 mos.old. First time today I can not open my desktop folder/files. I need to read them. Message is: appleworks 6 quit unexpectedly. I need to read them. Is it possible that new software downloaded yesterday is problem?

    I have an imac osx 5 months old. For the first time today I can not open my desktop folders which are very important to me. How can I open these folders.
    The message when I click on the folder is "appleworks 6 quit unexpectedly". I can not open the folder. Is it possible that new software installed could cause the problem when I get the message "new softward available for your computer, install now. Maybe I should never install upgrade. Please help in layman's language how to open my folders. Thanks.

    The curious thing here is that on the one hand the code cannot be loaded so how could the trojan code be ever executed.  But you would expect the "Unexpectedly quit" message if the intel trojan did get executed in a ppc app.  So this begs the question when (and how) does the trojan code get executed in conjunction with launching an app?
    I understand code injected into a specific app like safari that uses the global environment variable to access the code in /Users/Shared.  But I don't understand how that code could be executed by attempting to run an randomly chosen ppc app.  Unless of course   other code has been injected is in a more critical place than just safari and that is scary.
    Some of this was explained to us a few weeks back by an infected user who reverse engineered the code, working with Intego to figure out why he was being re-directed on Google searches. At the time, nobody believed much of anything he was saying, but F-Secure explains it more fullly in this analysis. Note that there is a filter component to keep it from loading code into apps that would be unstable, so watch for the next variant to filter out ppc only apps.
    In a related matter, I got word from the PC side of the house that similar techniques are being used by drive-by infections that were injecting code into a running app which would disappear when they quit the app. A one-time infection, so to speak. Makes it really hard to even know you were temporarily infected, let alone how, why, what damage, etc.

  • I have just done a software update and now I can not open my itunes. How can I open itunes?

    Hi, I have a macbook pro os x, version 10.6.8
    While doing a software update, I was asked to quit itunes to download the update. Now I can not open itunes. The icon is still there, but it just bounces up and down when I click on it. What is happening there? And how can I open itunes? Do I need to down load itunes again?

  • I can not open my itune because i did not complete the agreement

    I can't open the window itunes, because I did not completed the filling the terms & condition. I don't have Credit Card No. like Visa card to complete all information.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Step 1
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • I can not open my itunes store

    can anyone tell me why i cant open my itunes store?

    Hey smeaton1947,
    Here are some recommended troubleshooting steps for when you're unable to connect to the iTunes Store in iTunes for Windows:
    Update iTunes to the latest version.
    If iTunes Store appears empty and only displays the message iTunes Store, follow these steps.
    Try the steps to troubleshoot iTunes Store connectivity in Windows.
    As with all firewalls not manufactured by Apple, you may need to configure Windows Firewall to allow iTunes to access the iTunes Store. Follow these steps for Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.
    Try disabling any proxies built-in to Wndows. You should avoid proxies because they can cause issues.
    If you're receiving a specific error message, follow these steps.
    If the issue still persists, contact your Internet service provider and confirm that these ports and servers are enabled over your network.

  • I can not open up itunes using the desktop icon

    I have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version if itunes.  I cannot get itunes to open up by clicking on the desktop icon.  I keep getting the message"Do you want to allow this program to make changes?"  The program is Apple Inc.  I click on yes but nothing happens.  I have set itunes to run as the adminstrator. Can anyone help me?

    Odd that it is launching fine once after the repair.
    We'd better check to see if it's a compatibility mode issue.
    Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

  • Upgrading iTunes and now I can not open my iTunes

    My old version of iTunes, I believe it was 9.0.2? not 100% sure on what the old version was, but it told me that I was in need of an upgrade on my itunes so I said ok and I went and upgraded to iTunes 10. After I went through the downloading process that it walked me through, I went to open iTunes and it will not let me and it say "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." Does this mean everything that was on my iTunes is lost? I am going to be very upset if this is the case because this would be the 3rd time iTunes has messed up and my money on songs has gone to waste.

    Did you update it to 9.6?

    If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:
    HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
    HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    You may be required to boot into safe mode to complete the folder deletion process.

  • Can not open new iTunes version

    I have had trouble with the new version of iTunes since I downloaded it for the first time. I just recently re-downloaded version 7.0 but I am unable to open it. I get an error message of (-200) but not explaination of what that means. Does anyone have any idea? Thank you for the help.

    Go to iTunes > about iTunes.  What version are you running?  If necessary, hold down the option key while starting iTunes and create a new, test library so it will start.
