ITunes 7.6 can't open the iTunes library under other accounts

I created a new account in Windows Vista and wanted to just open my iTunes library that's on an external HD.
I hold down left shift, and open an existing library, but I keep getting an error that the iTunes database is locked.
I've checked the permissions on the file and folders, and I have the rights to the folders/files, as well, nothing is set for read only on the file level.
If I log out and login with the old user name, I can access the library just fine, so it's not corrupt.
Any ideas?

It's difficult to explain, but in a nutshell, iTunes doesn't do well with windows folder paths.
Study these articles and post back with questions?

  • I have the newest version of iTunes, and I cann open iTunes but I can't open the iTunes store, I click on it and then it says "iTunes is not working. Windows is checking for a solution" and then it closes.

    Please help.
    I can't buy anything!!!!!!

    This happened to me after the last iTunes upgrade.  The solution for my problem was to completely uninstall and reinstall my security software PC Tools Spyware Doctor with Antivirus) Just disabling it did not work.
    There are however a lot of different fixes on other old threads.

    Hi hasnainm342,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It's possible that the app you downloaded is only compatible with an iOS device.  Apps that are compatible with the computer are found in the Mac App Store.  They are downloaded to the Applications folder on your computer.
    The following articles will explain more:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4461
    Can I use my iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to purchase from the Mac App Store?
    No, the Mac App Store can only be used on a Mac.
    Where can I find an app once I've downloaded it?
    New apps are downloaded to the Applications folder on your Mac, and the app's icon will be placed in the Dock.

    I can't open the iTunes store and keep getting this error message. "Registry settings used by the iT drivers for importing & burning CDs & DVDs are missing. Reinstall iTunes." I've reinstalled iT a half dozen times with no results.

    You might have two different things going on at once here.
    Starting with the registry settings message.
    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

    Try:

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    If you have tried those two things, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:

  • TS1424 I can't open the iTune store after I updated my iphone to iOS 7.

    Hi there, could someone help me here please - I can't open the iTune store after I updated my iphone 4 to iOS 7. The problem occurred about 5 days later after the upgrade. There are no error messages. As I tap on the icon it opens just for a fraction of a moment and then goes off and back to the main screen. Other apps are working just fine. I tried following the troubleshooting steps as suggested by apple support, but that didn't help unfortunately...
    Thank you

  • I accidentally erased a music album that I purchased on iTunes. How can I get the iTunes store to recognize that it is no longer in my iTunes library and download it again?

    I accidentally erased a music album that I purchased on iTunes. How can I get the iTunes store to recognize that it is no longer in my iTunes library and download it again?

    Delete the broken links in iTunes then look at your purchased list to redownload.
    If this happened because you were deleting files from the iTunes folder in Finder, don't.  You have to let iTunes do all the deleting and moving or you will end up with broken links.

    I downloaded the new itunes, now I can't access the itunes store

    Hello, Martolini. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The most common resolution for this issue would be to make sure Safari has been update.  If the issue persists, try all of the steps referencing to Mac OS X in the two articles below.
    Troubleshoot issues on a Mac
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store, a software conflict or your Internet service provider (ISP) may be blocking your access.
    Update iTunes and Safari to the latest version.
    If you have a firewall, your settings may be preventing you from connecting to the iTunes Store. Follow these steps to configure your firewall.
    You may need to reset your keychain. Connection issues are occasionally caused by keychain issues. Learn how to use Keychain First Aid to resolve any issues with your keychain.
    If you're receiving a specific error message, follow these steps.
    If the issue still persists, contact your Internet service provider and confirm that these ports and servers are enabled over your network.

    I Can't open the iPhoto library. It says that the iPhoto library is locked, on a locked disk or you don't have permission to make changes on it. Can anybody help me?

    Where is your iPhoto Library located?
    Apply the fix below: 
    Fix #1
    Try to launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.

I try to uninstall and reinstall the itunes again and try every single troubleshooting step that i learn from this webside but none of them is working. does anyone have this problem, if yes then what did you do to solve the problem. I really need help for this cause i don't know what to do anymore to solve this problem. I also send the email to the itunessupportteam about this and they said the problem is from my computer.
