I cant open ITunes because of QuickTime

Hi, I am really hoping someone can help me! I cant open ITunes, every time I try a message pops up stating 'Itunes requires QuickTime 7.5.5 or later' but i have now downloaded QuickTime and installed 3 times and it still isnt working! Please help community! This is my first mac and im itching to get stuck in!

I am having the exactly same problem with my recent installation of update for Itunes 5.0 and Quicktime 7.
when trying to download Quicktime 7 separately I get Error 1402 followed by Error 1603.

  • Can't open itunes because of quicktime error message

    hi
    when i try opening itunes i get a message saying it can't run because it detects an error with quicktime. it says click "help". then i get something saying, "http status-message kb/304424". it also says description requested response not available. does anyone know how i can fix this?
    thank you

    iTunes depends on a good QuickTime install, because it uses QT codecs for video and audio.
    Does QT open OK? If not, uninstall it using Control Panel > ADd/Delete Programs. Then install the standalone version. More detail:

  • TS1717 how does one fix when message says: "you cant open iTunes because it is either damaged or incomplete"

    When trying to launch iTunes, I am getting the message "You cant open application iTunes because it may be damaged or incomplete". Has anyone experienced this before and how did you fix it? I have been using Time Machine, and tried to restore my iTunes, but that does not seem to help.

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    I cant open itunes on computer

    I'm having the same problem.  Already followed the steps and removed the SC info.sibd file then repaired the Quicktime program.  Nothing has worked.  Should I remove the Itunes program?  I recently updated Iphone and synced iphone and ipod now cant open itunes at all.  No error message.  The icon thinks a moment then does not open.

  • I cant open itunes cause quick time failed to initialize (error - 2096)

    i cant open itunes cause quick time failed to initialize (error - 2096)

    hmmmm.
    doublechecking something before proceeding ... are any boxes ticked in the Compatibility tab for your QuickTime?
    (i've seen that message produced when some of the Display Settings boxes in there are ticked, not just the compatibility mode one.)

  • Cant open itunes. get error message 7 followed by error message windows error 127.     i have redownloaded new updates with luck.   window xp

    cant open itunes. get error message 7 followed by error message windows error 127.     i have redownloaded new updates with luck.   window xp

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with music and video with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    You need to decide which computer you want to transfer iTunes content and photos from. If this will now be your computer at work, you will need to transfer your iTunes library and your photos from your Mac to your PC. You can transfer your iTunes library from your Mac to your PC at work following the instructions included with this link. This will make the iTunes library on your PC at work identical to your iTunes library on your Mac at the time it is transferred from your Mac. You will also need to authorize your PC at work with your iTunes account with iTunes - the same iTunes account used on your Mac.
