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.

I have a computer Mac, and I enter in the module, so that it can unlock, but I cant not write does not accept letters, numbers or symbols, and asks me is waiting for root device, What can I do?....
Some more details will probably be required. The OS X version will help, as a start.
If you have the diagnostics DVD disk, boot that and see if there are any errors logged.
If this is OS X that's installed on a MacBook Air that you're using, then some of the usual triggers and approaches for resolving the still waiting for root device errors are discussed here. Have a look at that, and see if something in that sequence looks familiar, whether the PRAM reset or the safe boot helps or works here.
If there's any anti-malware, I/O accellerator, antivirus tools or similar installed, get rid of it. At least for testing.
There's a mention of "other OS" in your footer. If not OS X, what is the operating system in use here? If this is some other hardware or software involved, then the triggers for this error can vary. Widely. -
I keep getting a message saying that the itunes library cannot open because it was
created by an earlier version of itunes. I recently upgraded to the newest version of itunes.Try the following user tip with that one:

We have 2 Ipod classics and 1 Ipod touch. One of the classics is not recognised by the itunes library and therfore canoot be synchonised with a playlist.
The second shuffle cannot be recognized by this computer ("USB Device Cannot be Recognized") so I don't think I'm able to reset it using that (it says "iPod is not recognized by iTunes, but is *visible in My Computer or in Device Manager* on a Windows PC, or in Apple System Profiler on a Mac.")
Like I said though, it works on other computers just fine and is visible so I don't quite understand what's up with this computer.

I updated my computer to Itune 11, did not like it, and uninstalled it exactly according to directions. I re-installed Itune10.7.021 for Windows 64bit, but now I keep getting the message "The file itunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. How can I resolve this problem?

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.

I backed up my iPhoto Library to an external drive even though it looked way to small to hold all my photos. I have tried several times to open iPhoto whilst depressing the option and command keys but get the same message again:
"The photo library was created with an unreleased version of iphoto. Please quit and upgrade this photo library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4" Behind this, the little wheel is turning and it says "Loading Photos" (but it doesn't).
I've got to access these photos for a project deadline that's looming so any help would be really appreciated. -
How do I open photoshop 2 files in a more recent version of Photoshop?
I have Photoshop files generated with Adobe Photshop 2.0 on Mac OS 6.0.4. Is there any way to migrate these files for use with a more recent version of Photoshop?
Hi DennisWDavis1234,
Do you remember which version of photoshop that was, such as photoshop 2.0 or 2.01 or possibly 2.5?
I guess you don't have that system still in operation?
I believe mac versions of photoshop can open the photoshop 2.0 file format and mac versions of elements before photoshop elements 11 as well.

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.

More recent version of the Flash Player error
Mac user. Every time I run I get the following error:
quote:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin
Flex Builder requires a more recent version of the Flash
Player. You might need to install the Flash Player or reinstall
Flex Builder.
Installed Flash version: 9,0,0,0
Required version: 9,0,115,0
(This version is only required for developers, not for end
users.)
Do you still want to launch the application?
I click Yes and it works fine, but it is a PITA to do this
every time. When I go to the adobe version page it says I have
version 9,0,124,0 installed. I tried uninstalling flash (using
Adobe's tool) and reinstalling. No dice. I tried uninstalling Flex
Builder and reinstalling. No dice.
Any ideas?Not a Mac user sorry, but I thought I would mention that
there are two flavours of the player - Normal and Debug player. To
install the debug player download it from here:

I just got an iMac and used migration tool (PC to Mac). When I try to then open iTunes i get the message
<The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version.... download iTunes now?>
...but i have it already downloaded, when I press download now, it tells me I already have it, but it still won't let me open iTunes???Unless you've tried to install an older version of iTunes that message likely indicates a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash...

I just tried to open itunes on my Macbook, and it says, "the file ituneslibrary.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I googled it, and someone suggested to change 'itl' to 'old', which I did. I was then able to open itunes, but nothing was there of my library. Have I lost my entire itunes library? Please say it ain't so ...
Hi,
By changing itl to old you made iTunes create a new blank library.
You may be able to use a previous iTunes library which are created when you update itunes. Therefore delete the current itl file, go to previous iTunes library folder, select the one that is most recent one before you made updates to iTunes. Move this to replace the one you moved to trash. Rename to iTunes library.itl then open iTunes.

Help me, please. I uninstalled old iTunes because of troubleshootings. I have downloaded and installed new one. Now it says: The file "iTunes Liberary.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." What can I do?
Hello Bebyida,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I receive the message: The file "iTunes library.itl"cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I do not know exactly what this means. I have Windows 7 on my computer and was able access itunes until just recently. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes multiple times and that does not work. Sometimes I can get in when immediately after installing, but then if I close it, i cannot get back in. Now, i can't get in at all.
That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
