Itunes 6.0/quicktime startup error :(

I installed itunes 6 over a previously installed version of itunes 6 by accident and now Itunes and quicktime will not start up. The cursor starts to load and in task manager you can see itunes.exe load briefly but then it disapears.
I also notice the yariqy.exe extentsion in my system information which i read could be the problem from another thread, please help me I have tonnes of tunes I just baught and need to transfer to my ipod

hmmm. unfortunately, there are other kinds of malware out there that can drop randomly-named start-up (and process) entries in a PC. here's a list of about 50:

... and the manual technique is only designed to remove one of them (the QooLogic variant, or whatever it is).
try downloading some of the reputable free antispyware products (like SpyBot Search and Destroy, and AdAware) and run those to see if they pick anything up. you might also want to try getting some antivirus software too.
can anyone recommend a reputable free antivirus package for TheOrangeJobber?

Can you start QuickTime on your computer?
You'll probably have to search for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and use it to remove QuickTime Player and iTunes. Then download and install the iTunes again.

I just recently did a reinstall on my mac, i tried to open itunes, but there is an error message that says itunes requires quick time 7.5.5 or later, i have tried to update quicktime, but cannot. please help :)

Are you actually unable to import or burn CDs? I get that error every time as well, but I don't actually have any problems.

When I startup Itunes I get "An Unknown Error Occurred -42110" Message. Can you tell me what is wrong and how to resolve?

Itunes 9 and Quicktime error 1402 hkey_local_machine\software\machine\micro

Hi,
I am a beginner when it comes to software and dowloading problems. I gave my husband an Ipod Nano for Christmas and I have spent close to 12 hours trying to figure out why we can't get Itunes 9 and Quicktime to load. Everytime we try we get to the very end and we get the following message:
error 1402
hkeylocalmachine\software\machine\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run
Any help would be appreciated as my husband was so excited to receive this gift and it is just a paper weight at the moment! Thank you!

Hello, I hesitate to post this advice to a person who states they are a beginner with software, since it involves going into the PC's registry. Don't do this if you are not comfortable with it.
Using the registry editor ( go to Start, Run, type in "regedit", then click OK )
navigate to the key from the error message, click once on it, then click Edit, Permissions.
If your User Profile has Administrator rights, then the boxes should be checked next to Full Control and Read. SYSTEM should be set the same.
If they aren't, I suggest you change them.
Another option would be to create a new Windows administrator account, and see if you can get itunes to install using that.

How to Fix Itunes not working and Quicktime uninstall errors!

1. To get Itunes to work, Quicktime must work too!
2. If quicktime won't work, you may have to uninstall it!
3. Start/Run msconfig > startup >uncheck quicktime > reboot
4. Control Panel > add/remove programs >quicktime
5. If quicktime won't uninstall:
6. Start/Run Windows Explorer (win & e keys)
7. Delete c:\quicktime and/or quicktime(2) folders.
8. Go to http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=quicktime
and select quicktime 4.0
9. Install this version then uninstall it. This will clean up the files of other quicktime versions.
10. install lastest quickime

By the way, I've checked the sound on System Preferences for the internal speakers and all systems seem to be set appropriately. I've tried putting headphones on and sound doesn't work through them either.

Problems opening iTunes after installation - "QuickTime was not Found"

I am having trouble opening iTunes. Both iTunes and Quick time will download and install and I can open QuickTime without a problem, but when I open iTunes, I get the following error:
Open iTunes and an error opens:
"QuickTime was not found. QuickTime is required to run iTunse. Please uninstall iTunes and then install iTunes again."
I only have trouble when I am at home and not connected to my work network. I was able to start iTunes yesterday while in the office, but all my music is on my external hard drive at home. Not helpful!
I have tried about everything - uninstalled, reinstalled itunes and quick time, disabled bonjour, disabled the startup files, etc. I am still not having any luck.
Any suggestions?

Both iTunes and Quick time will download and install and I can open QuickTime without a problem, but when I open iTunes, I get the following error:
A bit unusual.
Did you do the QuickTime/iTunes install at work?
Is QuickTime still launching when you get the PC home?
(Wondering if something relating to the network at work have done odd things to QuickTime or iTunes registry entries ... possibly iTunes is looking for QuickTime on the wrong drive when you get the PC home, for example.)

Many thanks to MrBart2U for helping me solve my QuickTime problem, with a twist. As he suggested, I installed QuickTime 6.0.0 at the website he provided. However, I did not uninstall it. After I installed it, I tried it and it worked, so then I downloaded iTunes (7.0.2) and it worked, too!!!
One caveat: when I was installing QT 6.0.0, I got an error message that a newer version of QuickTime was already on my computer. Previously, I was unable to use Add/Remove to delete QT from my computer because I kept getting various error messages during the uninstall process (the same error messages that have been discussed in this and other threads). So, I did three things that seemed to work:
(1) I went to Program Files and deleted the QuickTime folder.
(2) I went to Program Files/Windows/System32 and deleted all QuickTime files (I can't remember if there were 2 or 4).
(3) I did Start/Run/msconfig/startup and unchecked the qttask box, then I restarted my computer.
After that, I was able to successfully install QT 6.0.0, then iTunes!!!
Some additional notes which may or may not be helpful:
(1) iTunes and QT were working on my machine (purchased January 11th) for a few days before I transferred old files/settings/applications from my old computer using PCMover. iTunes was definitely not loaded on my old computer. I don't remember if QT was installed on my old computer.
(2) During the install process, I did not disable or switch off Norton Internet Security.
(3) Before the install process, I used CCleaner (free) to clean up my registry. Many thanks to the poster on another thread who suggested CCleaner. I used CCleaner to clean the registry, scan and fix any issues it found, and I also used it as an alternative way to uninstall QT.
(4) Before the install process, I uninstalled IE7. For the record, IE7 had only been installed for a couple of days. My QT problems pre-dated the day I installed IE7. But, after reading on other threads about possible problems believed to be caused by IE7, I uninstalled it just in case.
(5) I messed around with the Administrator/permissions settings. I have no earthly idea whether the settings changes made any difference.
I agree with the proposition that, in order for iTunes to work, you have to get QT to work. I don't know how, but QT 6.0.0 seems to work as long as you are able to remove the obvious traces of other versions of QT that I discussed above. I did not delete any other files from any other folder.
Good luck to everyone!

ITune wont start geting a error, error msg says send error or dont send.

Hi,
Like the topic says, i have tryed to reinstal itunes but with same results.
error msg
AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 7.0.2.16 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00000000
what shuld i do next need it to work so i can use my ipod.

let's first check to see whether or not that is associated with a broken QuickTime. (itunes needs a properly functioning QuickTime in order to work correctly.)
try launching your QuickTime. does it:
(a) launch perfectly fine?
(b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
(c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)

ITunes won't start - No error message

My iTunes was running fine up until a few days ago, then whenever I plugged my iPhone in it would freeze and crash. After reinstalling it, the same issue happened up until my problem now where it won't even start. I click on it and nothing at all. But, I open my task manager and it is there running with abnormally low usage. You can see in this picture, its in my task manager but on the bottom tool bar it is not running: http://yfrog.com/4jcaptureqkp
I end the process, and try to start it again, but to no avail. I have run Malwarebytes and Microsoft Essentials numerous times and have not found any issues. Outside of reinstalling it (for the half dozenth time) I am out of options.
I have scowered the boards here and Google of course without any luck. Your help or advice would be greatly appreciated in hopes that I don't have to re-install Windows.

I'm having much the same problem. I have XP Pro and SP3. I can't get iTunes or Quicktime to launch. I'm using iTunes 7 anf Quicktime 7. I tried the fix with the smart card file, but it didn't work. I can't get the Smart Card Helper to activate. I just keep getting a "1068 error" with I try to start it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Can't update iTunes, Safari or QuickTime

I can't update any of these programs on my Windows 7 computer. With Software Update, I get an error message telling me, rather unhelpfully, there was an error, and advising manual download. When I try the manual download and installation, there's another error message, saying I don't have access to a required component. See attached snippet:

I had this exact same problem just now, trying to upgrade to 10.7.
I even got that error msg when trying to UNINSTALL iTunes!
After hours of frustration trying everyone's different suggestions, I downloaded Revo Uninstaller http://www.cnet.com.au/apps/revo-uninstaller-10610875/ which solved the problem.
Use it to help uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
1. iTunes
2. QuickTime
3. Apple Software Update
4. Apple Mobile Device Support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Then you can install iTunes from scratch.
Good luck

ITunes 7.0.2 installation--error message 2203

I have tried downloading iTunes 7.0.2 but I get error message 2203 for it and quicktime.
I uninstalled quicktime and reinstalled the program, then tried the download for iTunes again,
Still getting the error 2203
...and iTunes Music store keeps loading their Japanese store!

do you have the latest version of the Windows Installer on your PC?
probably the easiest way to check is to head into Add/Remove programs (don't uninstall anything at this stage), and look at your Windows Installer entry. if it doesn't have a "(KB893803)" next to it, try upgrading your Installer to version 3.1v2. see:
Windows Installer 3.1 v2 (3.1.4000.2435) is available

I downloaded the newest version of itunes. now Quicktime is not working with it. I reinstalled itunes as directed and it's still not working

I downloaded the newest verion of itunes. Now quicktime is not working...error 2096. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. still nothing. i have read countless other people having the same issue. What is the problem?????

That one is often a compatibility mode problem. Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):
