ITunes 10.5.2 not launching on Windows 7

iTunes 10.5.2 will not launch on Windows 7 Professional. I have tried disabling Bonjour, and that did not help. Any suggestions?

I got it to work now ...
-Unistall the current iTunes on your computer.
- go to http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1427
-Go all the way down the page and download the iTunes through the given link
----------Download for iTunes 10.4.1 for Windows (64 - bit) here: iTunes 10.4.1 for Windows 64-bit.
-Once downloaded if a message window pops up with a message "the file itunes library.itl cannot be read"
Just go to My documents-> Music folder -> iTunes folder -> delete library.itl if existing or add it if it doesn't exist.
it worked for me so I believe that it should
Good luck

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 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,

There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

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 10.1 won't launch on Windows 7 x64

itunes version 10.1 for Windows 7 64-bit won't launch after install. I tried launching it under a different user. I tried disabling my antivirus software. I tried using the desktop shortcut, Start menu shortcut, and itunes.exe. The Event Viewer does not log any errors or warnings during installation or when trying to launch the app. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app too. When trying to launch the app, no messages are received, absolutely nothing happens. I had the previous version of itunes installed on the same hardware configuration. During installation, no warnings or errors are received. I checked possible conflicts under msconfig.exe, but only a few apps are checked to start at startup.

When trying to launch the app, no messages are received, absolutely nothing happens.
Some questions in the interest of narrowing in on possible culprits with an error-message-free iTunes launch failure.
(1) Does your QuickTime Player launch, or do you get an error message of some kind when you try to launch that?
(2) If your QuickTime seems to be launching fine, try (by way of experiment) disabling the BonJour Service.
In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?
If iTunes launches with the BonJour Service disabled, by any chance do you have a recent version of IOBit's Advanced SystemCare utility currently installed on the PC? If so, try uninstalling and reinstalling Advanced SystemCare. Can you launch iTunes without having to disable the BonJour Service now?

I downloaded iTunes for 64 bit Windows from apple's site. After the installation, when I clicked on the iTunes icon, an error message came up saying that the shortcut was only for products currently installed.
Good lord, it's fighting back hard. But at least that is giving us some further insight into what might be going on. Usually that error message indicates trouble with the iTunes64.msi on the system ... so trouble with that might well have caused issues with the update to version 9.2. (The .msi contains the installation database for the program, so damage to that can prevent old files from being swapped out for the files for the new version during an update.)
I also hadn't realised (or thought through the implications) that you were running a 64-bit operating system. So we need to tweak the instructions from that Apple document in order to make sure that we've properly cleared away all the leftover program files.
Let's try the following proceudre this time, which involves a bunch of additional explicit precautions (just in case). Best to print these instructions out, because at one stage of proceedings, you won't be able to use a web browser.
Preliminaries
(a) Download and save a fresh copy of the 64-bit iTunes installer (iTunes64Setup.exe) to your hard drive. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet.)
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(b) Download and install a copy of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
*Uninstall phase*
Proceed with the instructions from [Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923] with the following amendments.
(a) If when uninstalling any of the 6 listed applications, you get an error message (especially one about a "missing msi"), run the Windows Installer CleanUp utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install CleanUp"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, find the entry for the program that doesn't uninstall, select that entry, and click "Remove". Quit out of CleanUp and proceed with the next uninstall.
If all the programs seem to uninstall correctly, prior to moving to the *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled* section, run CleanUp anyway afterwards. Check the list of programs in CleanUp for any Apple Application Support, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, BonJour, iTunes and QuickTime entries. If you find any such entries, select them in CleanUp and click "Remove". Quit out of CleanUp, and proceed to the *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled* section.
(b) When you get to *step 9* of the *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled* section, instead use the following steps, rather than the ones goiven in the document. (Those ones in the document aren't quite accurate for 64-bit systems at the time that I'm writing this reply.)
(9) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
Note: If you have a 64-bit version of the Windows OS, continue with step #10. Otherwise, skip to step #17.
(10) Open the Program Files (x86) folder.
(11) Right-click the iTunes folder (if it still exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
(12) Right-click the iPod folder, choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(13) Right-click the QuickTime folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(14) Right-click the Bonjour folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(15) Open the Common Files folder.
(16) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(17) Open Local Disk (C:) located in Computer or whichever hard disk your operating system is installed on.
(18) Open the Windows folder.
(19) For 32-bit versions of Windows: Open the System32 folder.
For 64-bit versions of Windows: Open the Syswow64 folder.
(20) Right-click the QuickTime file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(21) Right-click the QuickTimeVR file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(22) Right-click the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
*Reinstall phase*
Restart the PC. After the PC restarts, *do not open any applications.* Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now disable all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
Now start the reinstall by doubleclicking the iTunes64Setup.exe file you downloaded earlier.
Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to the internet and/or your network.
Did the iTunes reinstall seem to go through okay?
If so, does iTunes launch now, without the StackHash-referencing "iTunes has stopped working" messages?

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!!
Paul

ITunes or QuickTime will Not Launch after Install

I received my new iPhone 4 a few days ago & have tried & tried for the past days to make iTunes 10.6 work & also QuickTime 7.7.1. They both install but when I click on the desk top icon a few seconds pass and an Error Message appears for iTunes & QuickTime that says "iTunes or QuickTime has encountered a problem & needs to close". The "Error Signature" is as follows for the iTunes; AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 10.6.0.40 ModName: gdiplus.dll ModVer: 5.2.6002.22509 Offset: 0002 edde. I have installed/uninstalled til I'm sick. I have done the control panel Add/Remove in suggested sequence & also removed any leftovers from iTunes and QuickTime from my registry; still no iTunes or QuickTime 7.7.1. The only QuickTime that will install & work is version 7.1.6. I am running XP Home Edition, Service Pack 3. I need iTunes desperately for my new iPhone 4 !! Please Help !!

Thank you soooo much for explaining the gdiplus.dll error I was receiving. Before doing your recommended sfc /scannow procedure I did a little more browsing & found the FIX !!! The reason for iTunes not opening was the fault of a CORRUPTED FONT !! It has taken me all nite to go through a gazillion fonts that I have installed on my computer on a trial & error basis but I did find the FONT that was keeping iTunes from not launching; Dr.PoDecorCyr.ttf , I started out by choosing the larger size Font Files making a new folder on my desk top & taking away & adding back to Windows Font Folder in the Control Panel until I found the culprit. I hope this info will help others. In Windows XP go to Start Menu to Control Panel to Fonts. Again Thank You Muchly !

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?

After upgrading to iTunes 11 application does not launch and is disrupting other programs

Hello!
I have trying to solve this problem all day:
After updating to iTunes 11 this morning, the application does not launch.
Furthermore, Windows Media Player, Win DVD8 and my Email Program fail to launch as well.
I have been through all support pages on iTunes, on support pages on the Windows 7 Forum, and I
read the answers given in the discussion.
I have tried and applied the solutions given, but none of them worked.
What happenes is iTunes tries to launch for a second, then stops, but the process keeps running
in the task manager.
All methods through MSCONFIG failed. Uninstalling and re-installing (in the correct order) iTunes, related
programs and QuickTime failed as well.
I am on a Windows 7 Home Premium 65 bit desktop computer.
Up until the update this morning everything was running fine.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you very much in advance.

Solved it.
I had a program running in the background, which did not get picked up by MSCONFIG.
I looked at the services on CCCleaner and there they were, many instances of this program, slowing the
computer down and preventing other programs (including iTunes) from functioning.
Turned them all off, and iTunes and all other pgms work again.
