I can't get my software to launch

I'd appreciate your help with this please.
In short, I can't get my Itunes software to start up, either by double clicking the icon, right clicking the icon and using the Open command, or using the Run command from the Start bar. When I do any of these it gives me the impression its going to get going for a second or two, but then nothing happens.
The only time it started properly for at least the last 2 weeks was when I first did an upgrade, then a few days later a comprehensive uninstall, then full re-install. On both occasions the software started automatically with no problem the first time, but after that, nothing. Connecting my Ipod (a Nano about 18 months old) doesn't help, it just sits there giving the 'do not disconnect' message.
Any Ideas how to solve this would be great. Many thanks in advance

Have you tried working through this troubleshooting artice?

Before you start though, it's worth checking to see if Quicktime launches OK becuase iTunes can't work without it.

    Hi,
    An OCR software i integrated within the HP Scan Software.
    Within the Applications folder locate the Hewlett-Packard folder and launch the HP Scan software.
    Once completing the scan you may select RTF or TXT files which will save the scan by processing OCR.
    If you do not have the HP Scan software installed be sure to install the following software by checking the HP Scan option during the installation:

  • Can't get the software to work with Audigy 2

    Hi, I have had my Audigy 2 ZS going on a year now and haven't had any problems. I recently made a clean install of Windows XP and upgraded to SP2 and all that. Now, I can get sound out of the card but can't get the software to work at all; cannot get the volume slider bar to appear when I click the icon (it appears in the task bar though and I get a small gray square where the slider should appear), the surround mixer does not show when I double click the volume icon, EAX conxole is a no go, get an empty error box when I try to start the Equaliser.
    I have tried everything from simple re-install to clean sweep to praying to the pagan gods. I have alsoo tried updating the drivers of course.
    I run XP on an Intel MoBo (on-boeard sound deactivated), 52RAM, ATI 9700 ALL-IN-WONDER.
    DOES THE CREATIVE SOFTWARE DEPEND ON ANY WEIRD LITTLE WINDOWS SERVICE OR SETTING THAT I MIGHT HAVE CHANGED DURING SETUP?
    This is quite infuriating as any idea I come up with takes up a lot of time in installation, uninstallation and clean up. It worked before, why not now?
    Thanks in advance. dentore

    Ok I got it to work. This is the reply I got from Creative but I didn't remove the program from the add/remove option on the PC b/c that didn't work at first. I inserted the installation CD and remove it from that wizard. Rebooted and the PC found new hardware. I then installed the driver and software from the CD and now it works.
    For Mediasource. It appears something was corrupted in Mediasource or there is a conflict within the system.Please uninstall all software and drivers for the soundcard, from add/remove programs. Once this is done, shut down the system and changePCI slots for the soundcard, then turn the system back on, cancel the found new hardware wizard, disable all background applications (especially virus scanner, firewall, and any other background applications running in the bottom right hand corner of the system), andthen perform a full reinstallation of the drivers and software from the soundcard installation cd.
    CAT I hope you fix your sound card. Good luck.

  • Restored iPod, can't get january software update

    I had to restore my ipod to make it sync with another computer and now I can't get the software update I freakin bought. I have tried everything under iPod Touch on the support pages. I have everything right and it just won't let me get it. This computer I bought the update on has had the OS reinstalled on it since then.

    I've got the same problem. My touch came w/ 1.1.3. I up'd to 1.1.4, and purchased the January app update when it came out.
    I wanted to wipe my iPod of personal information (going to sell it). I read on here that doing the settings:erase doesn't remove all information (wifi, iTunes purchase). Tried it, verified that post was correct (I could still attach to my encrypted wifi). So I went looking for a total reset instructions.
    Found Apple's webpage on how to do it, and then how to install, verify or reinstall the January update: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1376
    So I factory-reset it, then followed the instructions to reapply the update. It's not working for me. I can sync music, videos, etc to it. I see the correct software version and serial number when I click on it in iTunes. Just no new apps on it.
    I've performed the reset/sync ordeal a few times now. Tried setting it to manual, just to see if that might do the trick. Or toggling to non-manual afterward.
    Still no luck

    how can i get this software to install?  there are no product keys on the dvd sleeves

    It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is interfering otherwise.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

  • _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for /tmp/launch-lxMumo/

    I use the X11-based consed package for DNA sequence assembly. It worked fine on my old G4. When I switched over to a MacBook, with 10.5, I tested it and it seemed OK, but after updating to 10.5.1, when I try to launch the program, I get the following error:
    _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for /tmp/launch-lxMumo/
    Error: Can't open display: /tmp/launch-lxMumo/:0
    Other programs requiring an X-window display seem to work fine. My usual technique (Googling the error message) did not even find the term "lxMumo".
    Does anyone know what this means?
    thanks ,
    robin

    additional info:
    looked in the directory /tmp/launch-lxMumo
    and there is only one file, "", which appears to be empty:

  • Hi, I have a MacBookPro 5,1 with a software of 10.5.8, can I get Lion software in my computer?

    Hi, I have a MacBookPro 5,1 with a software of 10.5.8 Leopard, can I get Lion software in my computer or Snow Lion? Some of my apps need them..
    Thanks (:

    Your MBP will have to meet these specifications:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP629
    You will have to install Snow Leopard first and update it to 10.6.8;
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    You then will have to contact Apple customer relations for a redemption code for Lion.
    If your MBP meets these specifications, you can install Mt. Lion;

  • If I take my original iPad to the store can I get the software updated?

    If I take my original iPad to the store can I get the software updated?  My home computer does not have room for the backup.

    Well, you can do that, but your iPad will be totally erased and you will have to start from scratch. You need to backup your iPad and sync with iTunes before you install the update, because the updating process will erase the iPad completely. The reason that you should use your own computer is so that you can restore from the back and then sync all of your content back to the iPad.
    You might want to think about the bigger picture and do something to move some of your files off of your home computer because if the hard drive is full, you are going to have computers problems as well, down the road. There are many inexpensive external hard drives available and you might want to take a look at one.

  • Still Can't Get Audition CS6 To Launch. Nothing Seems To Work.

    I feel pretty bummed about this program not working. I spent a lot of money, and the Customer Support line wasn't able to help me either.
    I'm running an AMD 8 Core System (3.1ghz), on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit with 16 gigs of RAM.
    I have made the debugged text file, I have cleared 5.0, I have reset the presets, I have installed directly from the Disc, and also patched the software up to 5.2. I have reinstalled using the trial version from the actual adobe website as well. No progress.
    It still stops everytime at the same spot. I installed this on my laptop as well, and the same thing happens there too. I have researched the forums, and found that other people are having the exact same problems as I am, with no solution. I used to use 3.0 with no problems, upgrading has been disappointing.
    Can anyone help me?
    Here's a screenshot of the Splash Logo the second it crashes.

    Hi Warky99,
    I'm sorry to hear you're having this problem.  Can you send me an e-mail at [email protected] ?  I'll see if I can help get this working for you.
