  • Can't open itunes...tried almost everything

    my itunes mysteriously quit working and judging by the other posts it has something to do with an update and Quicktime (QT). i uninstalled QT and itunes and then tried to reinstall QT standalone with no luck. i also tried disabling firewalls while doing the aforementioned and still had no luck. i attempted to install in safe mode, but it said installshield wouldn't initialize (or something like that). This is what i currently get: after i reinstall QT with no visible errors, i attempt to open the program and it flashes up for a second then closes itself.

  • Can't open Itunes on my pc, Please help me!

    HI, i was updating itunes around 2 weeks ago. After i tried to start itunes but i won't start. I have tried to reinstall the program, but it didn't work either.

    1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?
    If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
    MSCONFIG
    Hit ENTER
    Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
    Restart Windows.
    2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Info.lib file:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
    3. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REAPIR.

  • Can't open iTunes after accidently unplugging iPod--help!

    Having problems opening iTunes after I accidently unplugged my 60G video iPod while it was loading. iTunes kind of froze, with the spinning beach ball, and I had to force quit to stop it. I restarted the computer for good measure, but now, when I try to open iTunes, I get the message:
    "The iTunes Music Library file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file."
    Of course, the library file is NOT locked, NOT on a locked disk, and I DO have write permission for the file.
    Can anyone help with this matter?
    Thanks,

    Try running Disk Utility and perform a "Repair Permission".
    Also check manually through finder the permissions on "iTunes" folder as well as on the files in that folder.

  • Napster app will not open crashes right away, tried everything help!!

    Opens up for a second then shuts down. I've tried deleting it then reinstalling, deleting it doing a soft and hard boot then reinstalling it. I have done a factory reset then restoring my iPad, nothing helps!
    Anyone else know anyother tricks?
    Thanks!

    I have the same problem. Iphone 4 OS 4.3.3. Napster is the only app that does it, and I have tried everything under the sun as well. Restored the phone, deleted app and re downloaded it several times on both the computer and phone. rebooted phone in between every step. Basically every combination of things. Did you ever find a solution? Any help would be appreciated.

  • I updated mozillo firfox and now i can not open firefox. i have tried everything, uninstall and intall, tried to read other peopl's recommendation, nothing work

    I updated firefox 27.0.1(x86.en-US) two days ago and now it is not opening. please help me, it is frustrating. I have been using firefox for a long time and I have saved a lot. can you please help me. I have checked under firewall and Mozilla firfox is not blocked. I have read every recommendation I could get to fix the problem but not working. I have windows 7

    One of the suggestions probably was to try starting Firefox in its Safe Mode by holding down the shift key when starting Firefox. (This doesn't work if Firefox is still running hidden in memory.)
    In the small dialog that should appear, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any luck?
    Also, I will message you a link to download Firefox 27.0, in case the problem is unique to Firefox 27.0.1.

    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.

    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.

  • TS1717 I can't open Itunes, I have an error that says says MSVCR80.dll is not found. I have tried twice to uninstall and reinstall but keep getting the same error message. Can anyone help?

    I can't open ITunes, I have an error message that says MSVCR80.dll is not found. Is anyone able to help solve this issue for me. I have tried to unistall and reinstall ITunes twice but continue to get the same error message.

    A msi file is short for microsoft installer.  It normally is for installation, removal, and maintenance for a program. So iTunes.msi would be used for the updating of the program.  For some reason it isnt finding this so we can't update, install, or remove it.
    From what I have seen windows installer cleanup utility solved related problems before. 
    I found this forum about removing and installing a new iTunes.  It was about someone who was trying to isntall iTunes, and was looking for msi file and asked for help.   Using this should allow you to be able to install iTunes.  It won't give you the msi file but will allow you to isntall iTunes over again.
    This was what was said.
    Another option in case you can't get an msi. (Or even if you can ... the msi's mentioned in the messages may be damaged rather than missing.)
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've 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".
    Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    i tried to download the latest itunes update, but received an error and now can't open itunes at all. Help?

    Hello bajura007,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    When you get to the step to uninstall iTunes, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step.
