See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. Use the steps in the second box to repair your iTunes installation. Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • FINALLY got my iTunes to update but now it won't open, the error message is "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read b/c it was created by a newer version of iTunes.

    This is getting irritating. I finally get the update to install now I get this new error message, I don't get it. I have Windows 7, all the updates have been installed on that, but I can't get the stupid iTunes to open. Seriously annoying! Can anyone help me?

    I don't know why this error occurs, unless you have attempted to downgrade iTunes.
    This method should get you up and running again.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

    I installed iTunes update on my pc running windows vista and now it will not open. Error message MSVCR80.dll missing???

    First try updating to iTunes 11.1.5.5, using an installer downloaded from the Apple website:

  • I updated my iTunes to 10.5, and now it won't open after I restarted my computer.

    I installed the new 10.5 iTunes and resetted my computer, and then I went to go open iTunes and it wouldn't open. I waited for a good 5 minutes thinking maybe my computer was just being slow, but it wasn't. I resetted my computer, and tried doing it again and it still didn't work. I even shut it down and still nothing. I have a Windows XP, it's really old, but I didn't have a problem with the other iTunes before. Can anyone help? :\ I just want to update my iPod.

    Try this, but copy the files that you'll be replacing and put them in another folder in case you need to put them back for some reason:
    -Go to your Documents folder where your iTunes folder is that has these folders: Album Artwork, iTunes Library Genius, iTunes Library, etc.
    -Go into the folder that says Previous iTunes Libraries and select the most recent library from before you had problems
    -Copy that file and go back to the previous folder that has Album Artwork, iTunes Library Genius, iTunes Library, etc.
    -You're going to replace two different files in the iTunes folder with the file you copied from the Previous iTunes Libraries folder: iTunes Library, and iTunes Library.itl
    -The first copy can be renamed to the same name as the first file, iTunes Library
    -The second copy, which will replace iTunes Library.itl, will be renamed iTunes Library.old
    I had read online to replace only the .itl file, but that didn't work for me, so after playing around, this worked for me and everything was restored.
    I hope this helps

  • HT6001 updated iTunes on intel iMac and now it won't open at all

    I'm using a 2007 intel imac 20" (2ghz intel core 2 duo) and itunes just updated automatically (to 11.1.4). Now it will not open, I just get an error message "iTunes quit unexpectedly" before it even opens. There seems to be no way to uninstall itunes on OS X 10.9.1. I have restarted to no avail. Any ideas? (no, time machine is not setup)
    Thanks!

    please, any help at all? I'm about to throw this imac out a window and never by another apple product again.

  • I cant live without my ipod and now itunes is bein weird

    i just put a cd onto itunes (ive done it before) and wen i synced the songs to my ipod itunes only put half my songs from my library on my ipod. I tried everything.

    What does "everything" consist of?
    What happens when you try to play the songs in iTunes?
    How do you normally put songs onto the iPod (automatic sync, manual sync, etc)

  • I just updated itunes to 11.1.3 on my laptop and now it won't open. It does not respond to trying "safe mode" either.

    I just updated itunes to 11.1.3 on my laptop and now it won't open. It does not respond to trying "safe mode" either. Anyone have an idea as to what to do?

    I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Just updated itunes to 12.1 and now it won't sync or show my iphone 5s

    I just updated itunes to 12.1 and now it won't sync or show my iphone 5s.. I have tried EVERYTHING. I completely uninstalled & reinstalled my itunes 2 times. Everything is completely up to date, and when I plug my iPhone into the computer, it makes the normal beep sound, and charges, but will not sync or show on iTunes so that I can sync anything..

    Hey ksooter,
    I know you have said you have tried everything but have you tried out some of the troubleshooting in the article below? For instance, have you checked the Apple Mobile Device support is installed properly and if the Apple Mobile Device is installed? Take a look at the article below to double check some of the things you have done to see if you can get your iPhone to show back up.
