ITunes 10.5 isn't opening on my windows xp computer

It takes a while to open the new iTunes

I have solved the problem with iTunes 10.5 will not install on Windows 7 64 bit.  I used Windows Installer Cleanup Utility available from softpedia.com to uninstall the offending program.  It is the Apple Software Updater that would not uninstall from the Control Panel.  I uninstalled all Apple iTunes 10.4, Quicktime and BonJour etc.  and the Apple Software Updater would not uninstall, so the Windows Installer Cleanup 2.5 Utility did the job.  Poor design of an Apple uninstaller.

  • ITunes will not open on my Windows 7 computer.  I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but it still won't open?

    iTunes will not open on my Windows 7 computer.  I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but it still won't open.  I'm trying to synch my iPad and iPhone, which I haven't done for awhile, but right now I'm having no luck.  I'm sure there is a switch I need to turn on or off, but have no idea where to find it.  Can someone help?

  • Itunes does not open on my windows 7 computer. If I re-boot the computer I can open it. However if I close itunes I must re-start the computer in order to open itunes again ??  What setting might need changed??

    I have downloaded itunes but it will not open on my computer unless I re-start the computer.  Then, if I close itunes it will not re-open.  A message box appears asking permission for this program to make changes to my computer. I click yes and then nothing happens.  I have to shut down and restart to open itunes again.  Is there some stiing that needs adjusted?

    Try Resetting the PRAM and SMC on the iMac.

  • TS1717 iTunes says " Accessing iTunes Store " but isn't opening store after a long time. What is wrong with my computer?

    Whenever I try to open the iTunes store off my Windows7 laptop , this is the screen I see. My computer is usually pretty fast and whenever I do it on my house computer ( which is 50 times slower) it comes up quickly.  All it says is iTunes is  "Accessing iTunes Store" and I've tried everything from turining off my laptop to taking the battery out to uninstalling and reinstalling the iTunes store. Please help. Thank You.

    Okay ... niot entirely sure what's going on with that.
    If we can't check for conflicts with Autoruns, we could instead just try clearing out the Winsock registry key manually.

  • I am trying to uninstall itunes as it will not open error 7 (windows 126) so that I can reinstall but keep getting the message.. The feature you are trying to remove is on a network resource that is unavailable itunes.msi... Any suggestions anyone

    I was unable to open iTunes and got a message error 7 (windows 126) so I tried to uninstall and download latest itunes 10.  When I tried to remove old version of itunes I got the message... The feature you are trying to remove is on a network resource that is unavailable and when I try to download iTunes 10 the message reads.... The installation source for this product is not aailable.  Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.  Can anyone help?

    A msi file is short for microsoft installer.  It normally is for installation, removal, and maintenance for a program. So iTunes.msi would be used for the updating of the program.  For some reason it isnt finding this so we can't update, install, or remove it.
    From what I have seen windows installer cleanup utility solved related problems before. 
    I found this forum about removing and installing a new iTunes.  It was about someone who was trying to isntall iTunes, and was looking for msi file and asked for help.   Using this should allow you to be able to install iTunes.  It won't give you the msi file but will allow you to isntall iTunes over again.
    This was what was said.
    Another option in case you can't get an msi. (Or even if you can ... the msi's mentioned in the messages may be damaged rather than missing.)
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • ITunes wont open on a Windows 7 computer - no errors, etc.

    I can't seem to get iTunes to open on a computer after my father synced his iPad.  I deleted and reinstalled, and tried opening in safe mode.  Nothing is opening...it doesnt even show it in the Task Manager.  Anyone who can help?

  • ITunes and QuickTime doesn't open up on Windows Vista

    Hi! I will apreciate all who tries to answer this question.
    I have Windows Vista on my HP laptop and I dowloaded iTunes and QuickTime.
    I had no problem downloading it, but then opening it came a box.
    It said:
    iTunes has stopped working
    Windows can check online for a solution to the problem
    -> Check online for a solution and close the program
    -> Close the program
    View problem details
    Problem signature:

    Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0
    Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000

    Then I press close the program and a speech bubble appears at the
    bottom right corner of the screen.
    It said:
    iTunes was closed.
    To help protect your computer, Data Execution Prevention
    has closed iTunes.Click to learn more.
    I have no idea whats hapening.
    HELP!

    excellent information, sparkly.
    Fault Module Name: StackHash_fd00
    Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0
    ... and:
    To help protect your computer, Data Execution Prevention has closed iTunes
    ... and the QuickTime Player not launching either (it's a "QuickTime has stopped working" error?).
    With that combination, we need to check on some other application (apart from QuickTime itself) stashing old QuickTime componentry on the PC in an unorthodox location. (Codec packs and video converters are the usual suspects with that, although some games might do the same.)
    So we'll go looking for the 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.)

    It does open in a new window for me. IE6, XP, PC.
    Make sure you empty your cache between versions to get the
    latest changes.
    Or could it be a browser setting?

  • When I attempt to open Firefox a window appears which says Firefox is already running, and I must either close the window (which isn't open) or re-start the computer to get Firefox to open.

    The system operates normally for a while and then unexpectedly whenever it wants to, I get this message, even though Firefox is not open.
    I have to continually re-start the computer to make Firefox operational again.

    See [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]], in your case it sounds like Firefox is not closing properly.

  • I am trying to play my ipod shuffle 1st gen in itunes but it will not play. My windows 7 computer recognizes the ipod and I can easily select the songs on my ipod playlist in itunes but cannot play them. Any solutions to the problem?

    I get the feeling some has asked a question "like" this but not exactly that question which makes it really hard for find answers fast to the above question. Therefore, I decided to ask it anyway. Hopefully someone has a good solution that will work.
    Background on the question:
    - I had to erase and reupload song on my ipod 1st gen to my new computer. Apparently the ipod could not be read by the iTunes in my new computer because the playlist cannot be opened in more than one iTunes or in another computer or something like that (this makes no sense). All this was to try and charge my ipod that does not seem to want to charge. It connects perfectly to the computer and I can see the initial blinking yellow lights on the back and front, but won't charge. I am currently working on this problem from other community discussion topics.

    Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
    All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

  • ITunes doesn't see my iPhone on my Windows 8 computer.  It used to, now with latest version of iTunes it doesn't.  Help?

    I can't get iTunes to see my phone anymore.  I am trying to sync my phone as I've done a million times and now suddenly I can't get the device to show up in iTunes.  I have reinstalled iTunes, restarted my phone, and followed a few other steps in the online help that got me nowhere.  Anyone have advice as to how to do this?  I've got to sync my calendars asap!
    Thank you!

    Hi akwritermama,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It's possible that the iTunes software didn't update properly.   Try the specific steps below for the iPhone first:

    I cant get itunes update on windows

    I have the same problem W7 64bit.  Tried to update itunes to 11.1.2 first, then my iPhone 5s.  Not only did itunes not update for some reason, but when updating the iPhone 5s, about 2/3 of the way through the update an error message occurred saying that itunes had stopped working, and my phone went into Restore mode.  Why won't iTunes update?  Why did the phone go into Restore Mode when updating to 7.0.3?
