ITunes latest version will not launch in Windows 7

iTunes will not lauch regardless of what I do. I have tried re-installing with no luck. I have tried holding down ctrl-shift keys when attempting to launch, that didn't work either. I just get a window that Apple wants to make changes to my computer and I respond yes, but still nothing happens. When I try to launch iTunes nothing happens, no error message or anything. I am at a loss as to what to try next. Please someone HELP!

Now nothing happens when launching iTunes. No messages appear.
Could you check something further for me, please? Is your QuickTime Player also currently failing to launch (with or without an error message)?

I just reinstalled iTunes, and it will not open, as it says iTunes library itl. was created from an earlier version. Any idea what this means, and how I can get itunes to open?

Many thanks.
That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

HT1926 I downloaded the latest version of iTunes; however, it now will not launch, citing Windows error 127, any suggestions?

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, now it will not launch. I get a Windows Error 127 message. Any suggestions?

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (Although the procedure is for Vista and 7 and you've got XP, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

TS1717 I tunes 10.7 will not launch on windows 7

I tunes 10.7 will not launch in windows 7

I am having the same problem. Like me, so many posts describe days of work with little to show for it. I have read numerous "solutions" but none work or work fully.
Here we have two of the most influential computer companies in the world: APPLE and MICROSOFT, and hundreds of posts with people asking for help in connecting their Iphone to Windows7, or in getting Itunes under devices, to show their connected IPhone when it does not do so.
You would think that Apple and Windows would have solved this problem and developed wizards to help their customers, but if they have done so, none of the many posts I have read make any mention of it.
Like many who have written on their attempts to solve the problem I have installed and reinstalled Itunes, disabled USB devices, and so one.
I am as interested in understanding what the technical problem(s) are as I am in solving my problem.
Windows has managed to recognize literally thousands of devices yet when I connect my IPHONE 4s (presumably one of millions sold) it is silent. That is as amazing to me as it is frustrating.
If anyone ever gets this figured out a gold star to you, and please contact [email protected]
Thankyou,

Itunes will not launch on Windows Vista no error code

Itunes will not launch on my computer. I have windows vista. I have uninstalled and downloaded itunes repeatedly. I have also tried all of the troubleshooting tips available on the apple support site. But none of them worked. Quicktimes works fine. It is just itunes. I even opened up task manager to check the processes and itunes appears for about a second in the processes tab then just disappears. I have no idea what to do i have an iphone 3gs and havent updated it for a few months now and cannot sync my iphone without itunes. I Have kaspersky internet protection but i doubt thats the problem because itunes was working fine until i updated it.PLEASE HELPPPPPP!

Presumably the configuration fails to complete, so every time you start iTunes it has another go.
As iTunes works normally when you plug in your iPod, you should be able to work round this by creating a new iTunes short cut.
Go to Program Files\iTunes and right click on iTunes.exe. Select: Send to>>Desktop(create shortcut). If you are lucky you will be able to open iTunes using this short cut.
However this work around does not fix the underlying problem that WIndows fails to complete configuring iTunes.

ITunes 12.01 will not launch

I have updated to Yosemite and iTunes 12.01 on a MacBook Pro. All find except iTunes will not launch. It just flashes and nothing happens. I booted in Safe mode and tried - no good. Also reinstalled iTunes but still nothing. Connected my iPhone and still no iTunes.
Anyone any ideas?

Other people seem to be having the same problem.
There was a solution posted in another thread.
1) Remove iTunes. Instructions can be found here: http://www.tekrevue.com/tip/uninstall-itunes/
2) Reinstall iTunes. It can be downloaded here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If that doesn't work, I fixed the problem on my system (before seeing the above instructions) by installing Yosemite on an external drive, then booting from the external drive and copying the iTunes app from the new install back over to the main system. This will be version 12 so you will need to go through the normal update process again to get the latest version.

TS1717 I recentlu upgraded to the latest itunes version, I have now tried to open itunes for the first time since upgrading, no I find I have not got permission to open itunes. It will not launch at all???? Any ideas???

I have recently upgraded to the latest version of itunes. I have just tried to access itunes for the first time since upgrading and now I get a message saying I do not have the appropriate permissions to access it. It will not launch at all. I have also recently changed my ISP, help anyone?

This is the iPod touch forum. I requested the moderators to move your post to the iPod classic forum.

ITunes 6.1 will not launch

After upgrading from iTunes 4 to 6, iTunes will not launch at all. Neither will the new version of Quicktime 7 that I installed at the same time. After clicking on the iTunes icon in the dock, the icon bounces once, but the application will not launch or respond to any command but Force Quit. Does anybody have an idea why this is happening? I'm also on OS10.3.9

SOLUTION FOUND for iTunes not opening after upgrade to 6.0.1!
This took a lot of time and effort and the expertise of 2 long-time, devoted Mac users! Apple could not even come up with this. As I said in earlier posts, I believed it to be a code issue in the upgrade program, and so it seems. The upgrade doesn't delete the old iTunes version's "preferences" as it should, thus creating a conflict.
Here goes the solution:
-Close out of all applications running
-In your Finder go to the 'Go' menu and slide down to 'Home" and open it
-Double click on the 'Library' folder to open it
-Double click on the 'Preferences' folder to open it
-Change 'View' for all this folder's contents to 'list' format to make the next step easy:
-Drag "com.apple.iTunes.plist" AND "com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist" to the trash
-Close all windows and try starting iTunes from the dock. If you have no iTunes icon in the dock, open your applications folder off your hard drive, find the iTunes application. Click once on the iTunes icon and drag a copy of it to the dock. Once it's in the dock, click on it. It should open as a new version of iTunes (set-up) allowing you to transfer/organize your music, and so-forth.
Cheers!!

Thanks to good friend and fellow MacFanatic Richard "Dick" Muise of Springfield, MA, USA, for his insight and assistance in coming up with this solution!

Itunes for mac will not launch

my itunes will not launch have updated to 11. tried reboot. when trying to start the Icon bounces in the task bar then stops when you click on it says that it stopped responding seems to be only app having this prroblem. Thanks for your help.

Hi b noir,
Thanks for the link. I had seen something like it but it didn't work. This one however worked a treat!
I only deleted the first file (com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig) and it worked straight away.
Fantastic, thank you!

Apple programs, Help, Mail, iTunes, Safari, Quicktime will not launch.

Recently we downloaded some upgrades from Apple and now Help, Mail, iTunes, Safari and Quicktime will not launch. The icon dances on the dock, and the operating system records the program as having opened, but the program does not come up and the icon menu on the dock still displays open rather than quit. I have tried re-installing the programs to no avail.

"Repair disk was unable to repair these"
Any one of the following may fix the directory damage:
DiskWarrior
Highly recommended for *directory damage* repairs.
TechTool Pro
Multi-functional utility.
Drive Genius Multi-functional utility.
You will need to make your own decision on which to purchase. Read up on them on their websites because each does something a little different.
You must use the versions that are compatible w/your OS system & keep the utilities updated to avoid damaging/harming/trashing your system.

Itunes 7.0 will not launch! HELP!!!

It will not launch but, it gives no error. I have made sure quicktime is not in safe mode and have made sure audio speakers are set for headphones. Those are the only two things that I could find on apple's website that they suggest to try. What next? Thanks for any help!

I too am having the same problem. It's odd: I click on itunes.exe (either shortcut or from the iTunes directory), and through task manager I can see the iTunes process start for a split second before disappearing and then nothing – no error messages, nothing.
The first time I click the link, I can hear my hard drive whirring away as it normally does when starting an app, but once it fails to start, subsequent clicks on iTunes.exe fail to provoke anything from the PC (running XP Pro).
I have tried various options found on these discussion pages such as:
- repair install
- uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling stand alone QT
- uninstalling Quicktime and installing 'alternate' QT
- turning off anti-virus apps (I use AVG)
- turning off windows firewall (mind you, if it had then worked after having both of the above turned off; I don't think I'd use it anyway...)
Grateful if anybody has any solutions; I was really pleased with the jukebox-style artwork viewer of the previous-most-recent iTunes, and I have rarely had troubles before. Have Apple dropped the ball on this one?

Indesign CS4 will not launch in Windows Vista

Indesign CS4 will not launch but all other CS4 programs will in Windows Vista, has been worked perfectly up until mid february, I have spent two weeks dealing with Adobe support, and finally I ran “Windows Installer Clean Up” and restarted as requested on phone call to adobe today, then ran “WinCS4Cleanupscript” which inform me that it was clean (or words to that effect) and restarted. Did new install of CS4, at registration I noticed that the Reg Form was pre filled and with my preferences which was a bit strange. After all that Indesign still does not launch but is running. Please can anyone help.

This is the earlier thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/2621367#2621367
I think the onus is on Rapport to sort its software to prevent it interfering with other applications, and there is a post in that thread that indicates that Rapport is both aware of the problem and is working to overcome it.
I would hope that Adobe itself would have picked up this problem by at least monitoring this forum, but other than adding it to the knowledgebase for its technical support, which I don't expect is an overnight thing to do, I can't see what else it would be expected to do.
Perhaps if anyone from Adobe is monitoring this problem they could chime in here and let us know what the position is. I strongly suspect that Trusteer may have been the reason I couldn't get InDesign to run under Windows 7, and so I rolled the whole shooting match back to XP. I am planning to reinstall W7 with the knowledge that I may have to toggle Trusteer on and off to run InDesign, but it would be helpful to have some assurance from either party that a fix is on its way.
In the previous thread the Rapport response implied there was reference to the problem on its FAQ page. If there is I can't find it.

Photoshop will not launch. Window indicates need JAVA SE6. Already have it, but re-installed. Photoshop will still not launch. Help! MacOS 10.10.1

Since installing Mac OS 10.10.1 photoshop will not run, it will not launch. A window indicates that it needs JAVA SE6 to run. JAVA SE6 is installed. I have re-installed and restarted but photoshop will not run and I get the same message window that I need to install JAVA SE6. How do I make this work?

Have you added any Photoshop Add-on that uses an external JavaScript. Photoshop itself has is own ScriptingSupport Plug-in and does not use an external java. Also Java SE6 is old and has security issues you should update to version SE8
