Itunes 7.5 won't run because QuickTime 7.3 is broken

During installation of itunes you will get an error saying "Itunes cannot run because some of it's required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes". The reason is because QuickTime 7.3 is broken. You can check by opening QTInfo.exe in the quicktime folder and it will say QuickTime is not installed. What you can do is downgrade to QuickTime 7.2. Get it at http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime72forwindows.html. iTunes 7.5 will run fine with it.

Hi,
Thank you. Had to perform the following steps 'IN ORDER' to get 7.5 to work. Formerly was running iTunes 7.3.1 'without' incident.
1) Install iTunes 7.5. Quick Time 7.3 installs at same time. When error message occurs, click OK and finish installation.
2) Go to 'control panel' and remove 'Quick Time 7.3'
3) Install Quick Time '7.2.
4) Re-boot system and launch iTunes 7.5. How 'bout that. It works !!
Best Regards, DE

Upgrade to Leopard. Better yet, Snow Leopard if your Mac is an Intel model (you don't say much about the computer which makes this hard to make suggestions).

ITunes 10.4 won't download because it has an invalid signature

iTunes 10.4 won't download because it has an invalid signature

That typically indicates that the installer is getting damaged during the download, linda.
What browser did you use to download the installer? If you were using IE, can you get a working installer if you use Firefox instead (or vice versa)?

Good luck.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

My itunes won't run because it says it needs apple applications support

After i downloaded itunes it says that it can't run because it can't find apple applications support for itunes set up i think?

Hello 14abes00
I would completely remove iTunes and other Apple software then install iTunes again. The articles below will assist depending on what version of Windows you have for your computer.

ITunes won't run because of Quick Time issue

I can't get Quick Time to work, so I can use my ITunes. I have tried to reinstall. but it just gives me an error sending report.
Any help, pleae.

That error message suggests that you have or have had one of the problem programs I listed. It is possible that one may have been installed with something else. You need to be sure you have got rid of these programs. They are bad news for Quicktime.
Here is the procedure if the uninstall fails - you need to do an installer cleanup:
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

ITunes (11.3 64bit) cannot run because some its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.

just set up my new laptop lenovo x240.
Windows 7 SP1.
itunes 64bit 11.3
first install went fine. then I tried to move my preexisting library. the library did not show the apps. so I tried around. Treid to re-install itunes.
Since I did, after the re-install, iTunes gives me the error message "iTunes cannot run because some its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
I tried the -_> link: Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
unfortunately it did not resolve. please, advise... I am quite desperate... and surprised this is happening, since I am on a clean corporate laptop.
perhaps, can someone also steer me to a corner, where I can deactivate the cloud install pop-up ones starting iTunes?

See the advice given in the user tip:Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for a very workable approach.

My Itunes 64 bit won't run in windows 7

My Itunes 64 bit decided not to run when I deleted the library. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it several times but it won't run. Even if I plug my ipad mini, nothing happens.
Anybody can help?

Follow these instructions to completely remove iTunes then reinstall. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925

I run XP64 and itunes 8 works fine but now I can't connect to the store unless I d/load iTunes 10 which won't run on XP64. Help

Everytime I try to access the store I'm asked if I want to download iTunes 10 which I don't because it wont run on my OS and I can't decline the offer so I can't get into the store

iTunes has never supported XP64 bit.
However iTunes itself is a 32 bit program that will run on XP64 if you can get it installed. however this requires some hacking. Here are some links, you may be able to find others.

WINDOWS 8, I finally am able to download iTunes, but it won't run the installer, anyone have suggestions?

Hi!
I've finally figured out how to download iTunes on this crazy stupid windows OS, but when I click on the setup in my downloads folder, it won't run. I've tried hitting "run as administrator" and troubleshooting and so far no resolution. Is anyone else having this problem? How can I fix it?? Please help, I am beyond frustrated.

Hi angelxkisses,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It looks like you’re running into an issue downloading the latest version of iTunes on your PC. Try adjusting the Pop-up Blocker settings in Internet Explorer as shown in the article below.

Firefox won't run because it 'is already running' I have tried all steps in firefox crashes articles

I had a spectacular crash in Firefox (FF) - Malware or a virus - I think my system is clean now.
I removed FF and all FF/Mozilla files, downloaded a new FF. It will not run because:
"Close Firefox
A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time"
I have tried all the remedies on the 'FF crashes' support page. The profile manager doesn't run probably because that was among the files I deleted.
All other apps seem to run fine.

Start with item #2
#close Firefox with File > Exit or "Firefox" button > Exit. Give Firefox some time to close and
#check that it finished via Windows 7 shortcut to WTM "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" in the "Processes" tab make sure that firefox.exe is no longer running -- if it is still running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu.
#proceed with the install

ITunes won't install because Quicktime won't

I had QT on my computer, the latest version, and I tried to download iTunes and it says "Quicktime will not install. iTunes needs Quicktime to run." and the only option I have is to close.
I removed QT and tried to install QT w/ iTunes, same error.
I tried then to just install iTunes. same error
I put QT back on alone, tried iTunes again, same error.
If anyone can help before I have to return my new ipod because of software issues that would be cool. thanks.

with that one, let's try getting an itunes 7 installer log to the Apple Engineers for a look.
1. Open a command prompt window. (Start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return.)
2. Drag and drop iTunesSetup.exe onto the window so that the full pathname of the file is at the command line prompt.
3. Type in a space, then the following line:
/l*v C:\log.txt
4. Hit return.
5. The installer will create a log file:
C:\log.txt
Find that file and send it as an attachment to this email address.
in the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
- A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
- The username you are using in the thread
- The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
- the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
- A concise description of the issue you are seeing
- The exact text of the error message you are seeing

TV show won't play because Quicktime doesn't work with iTunes version

I downloaded episode 1 of Mad Men. When I try to play it I get this error: This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes
I read some of the other support discussions and tried to do 2 things:
(1) I tried to set iTunes to open in 32 bit mode. But, when I open iTunes after doing so, I get an error that iTunes must be opened in 64 bit mode. So, that didn't work.
(2) I tried to remove the movie, but instead of being asked whether I still wanted to keep it, it just asked me if I wanted to "hide" the movie. So, I'm not sure what this means.
How can I watch the show I downloaded? And, please provide really explicit instructions because I can't seem to follow the complicated directions some of the super smart people leave on these discussion groups.
I have a Macbook Pro 15 inch retina screen computer running Yosemite 10.10.3. I have iTunes 12.1.2.27.
Thanks,
Cameron

I had the same problem as teacher_k reported and I am happy to report that after 2 days of fighting it seems I solved it.
Symptom was: when playing a movie trailer from iTunes on a HDTV or on the computer either nothing happens or a black screen opens and no video or audio is perceived. I have a Win7 laptop.
I am not sure if all of these steps were necessary but at the end it started working:
1. I hope it is obvious that you need a connection to a HDMI TV (at least for some content that is protected) . Ensure that your TV display correctly shows your screen when not playing movies (fixing resolution, refresh rates, etc.)
2. Ensure you have latest rev of QT and that it is the default player for movies (by just launching it and answer yes to that same question if appears)
3. Follow the instructions in Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues as Whatcheck said
4. The last tmagic step hat made it work was based on Patriciafromor: deauthorize/authorize the computer, Just in case I also logged off and back into my AppleID account and restarted iTunes and voilà
