Itunes 7.4.2 wont open

i recently downloaded itunes 7.4.2, and when i go to open it, it says "itunes needs to close, an error has occured" or something like that. before i downloaded the new version, the same thing happened. i havent been able to open itunes for a while now. i tried to uninstall then reinstall, but that didnt help. does anyone no what to do????

i tried this and what it's telling me for quick time is the same is what it's telling me for itunes. "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." and it's the same for quick time. now last week i ran a system recovery on this computer because of a problem with my internet connection but itunes was working fine. and now the computer is restored and the old version on itunes exsisted on this computer, but it wouldn't let my ipod sync or anything cause it requires a newer version of itunes and so i downloaded it and this keeps happening. i've tried a lot of things! what should i do?

    A complete uninstall/reinstall is worth a crack with that one:

    I did the latest update for iTunes and now it wont open. It says my version is corrupted. Is there a way to fix it without re-installing?

    Just remove and reinstall iTunes.
    This has no affect on the media on the computer.

  • ITunes 7.0.2 wont open - Quicktime 7.0d0?

    I've just installed the newest version of itunes, but the software wont open, and gives the message; quicktime version 7.0d0 is installed, itunes requires quicktime 7.1.3 or later.
    whats the problem?

    quicktime version 7.0d0 is installed, itunes requires quicktime 7.1.3 or later.
    with that one, let's try swapping out your QuickTime.
    head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

  • I updated itunes and now it wont open

    i updated itunes and now it wont open and keeps giving me an error message MSVCR80.dll is missing. what do i do? i dont want to lose everything

    Hi there,
    Earlier iTunes (and supporting applications) need to be completely uninstalled before you can install the new version. Here's the complete Apple info on this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Mobile device application will most likely fail to uninstall, so you would need to visit its location(s) and manually delete the files then folder(s). The location of the folders is documented in this link from Apple.
    You won't lose your music when you uninstall iTunes. It's located in your music folder and won't be touched.

  • Is the a fix for itunes store?? wont open

    I have windows 7 ---installed latest version of itunes 10.4  store wont open  What can i do to fix??

    No. However you can turn off iTunes Match on the device, sync the explicit song, then re-enable iTM. Then your iOS device will play the correct version of the song.

  • I updated itunes and now it wont open, what do i do?

    I updated itunes, and not it wont open on my computer, what do i do?

    Unfortunately uninstalling and reinstalling or repairing iTunes alone won't fix the problem, you need to remove other components too....
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • TS1424 my icons itunes wont open so i removed program and downloaded new itunes and it still wont open

    my icon itunes wont open so i removed it and downloaded it 3 times and it still wont open

    Do you get an error message when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • HELP, all my devices (iPads 1, 2, mini, 4   iPhones 5) when i download a new app through appstore they all freeze on waiting and the icon is blank, at the same time my iTunes on windows comupter wont open anymore.

    All my devices under the same username wont install and new apps when connected to wifi, and itunes on windows wont open anymore. wondering if anyone has the same problem or found a solution.
    will download under 3g, very unusual problem. seems to be the apple username but for itunes to not open as well.

    Ha ha, not to worry.
    Rebooted modem and all is good now.
    Very unusual that the only problem was isolated to all apple associated devices and software.

  • Itunes 10, just downloaded, wont open store

    I just download itunes 10 and the store wont open. this is the message that comes up, "Itunes could not connect to iTunes store. The network conection timed-out. Make sure your network settings are correct, and your network connection is active, then try again." I got a similar message whhen i had iTunes 7, except i could connect to the store, just not my account. i dont know what to do, but i am pretty good with computers someone help me, please, thanks.

    I have the same problem. I think there is an internal error with the new version update. It was working fine about 2-3 days ago. I have ran a diagnostics and iTunes report system verified that there is an error with the 1 on 1 connection with the iTunes store and the internet connection. I have done everything the help center says to do, and yet no further. I think that iTunes needs to bring out a new update to fix this...... but then again how could we access the iTunes store to download this. The only option I can advise to Apple is that they create (and anytime soon would be good) an update to repair this internal problem and publish it to there website that will install the update manually to iTunes through the internet connection. That should fix this but how long until the main guys at Apple put there heads together and realize that there valuable customers are waiting to buy apps,videos,movies,ibooks,music etc. And cannot do this because of there faulty software. God if I can solve this problem in my head and I am only 15 then why cant they? Right now Apple is disappointing me. Especially when I am thinking of upgrading to a MacBook.

  • Help canceled itune backup disc drive wont open??

    Why wont my disc drive open to remove disc?

    Help!?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you ! It worked I was headed there but wasnt sure if that was the right action or not.
    I was affraid it would just pick up where it left off.
    UGH. That was my first experience with that in several years of pc use LOL.
    If my disc drive works I guess it didnt hurt it? It was running kinda hard after but seems okay.
