Itunes 7 unable to run on windows

It was working fine until about a week ago or so. and nothing in my computer has changed.
I have tried to reinstall iTunes (version 8, for Windows 64) twice, with no avail. The error message that I'm getting is that some .exe file is not made to run on windows. After 2 tries , it will stop trying to load it all together.

It sounds as though one of your system dlls has got corrupted.
dssenh.dll is one of a set of dlls associated with cryptographic services that iTunes uses during start up.
You will find them listed in *Method 4* in this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822798
If you carry out the steps in method 4 you can check to see which dlls generate error messages, you should be able to confirm that there is a problem with this dll and if any others have problems.
Unfortunately I have no experience messing with Vista system dlls and especially 64 bit systems, so I can't help you sort it out. It would be the blind leading the blind. In fact I am not even certain that method 4 above is OK on 64 bit Vista, although iTunes is a 32 bit program.
But hopefully you can amke a diagnosis and then get help elsewhere.

I have tried both suggestions, unfortunately neither fixed this for me. Hoping there's another possible fix. Thanks in advance.

ITunes 10 will not run on Windows 7, 64 bit

I have upgraded to itunes 10 and now it will not run. In task manager the process is running but no programme. i uninstalled all itunes, quick step, bonjour and apple folders. Then tried a clean instal of itunes 10. Still didn't work. Uninstalled again and reloaded v 9.2 and it works. Tried disabling bonjour and ran the instal of 10 again and it still doesn't work. This is becoming a major pain as I am stuck on v9.2.

Try installing the version 10 again so we can check on a few other characteristics of the problem, seeoh.
(1) Does your QuickTime Player launch, or do you get an error message of some kind when you try to launch that?
(2) Try (by way of experiment) disabling the BonJour Service.
In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?

ITunes does not start run on Windows Vista at all

I've been using iTunes on Windows Vista for about six months. A couple of weeks ago it stopped running: I run the program, see the animation-formerly-known-as-hourglass for a couple of seconds and then - nothing. I can see iTunes in the process list, but nothing happens nor can I shut it down (it does nothing when I try to shut it down).
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that does not help. The program did run on another user account, so this is probably related to my profile. I tried moving the two iTunes profile folders I saw listed somewhere (can't find them now), but that did not help.
Yesterday, I got a pop-up saying there's a version 7.5 available. I installed that, and much to my surprise it ran normally - once. After that one time it again refused to do anything more than what I wrote at the start.
So what gives? Should I throw my iPods into the nearest lake?
Any hints on how to solve this frustrating issue will be greatly appreciated.

I've tried everything I can now. I've uninstalled everything that has anything to do with iTunes, then reinstalled (as per the relevant article). I've even tried installing an older version, but no. Whenever I try to run iTunes, it shows up in the processes - and can't be terminated except by shutting the computer down - but does not open.
It still seems my only option is to throw my two iPods into the lake. This is infuriating.

Itunes installer won't run in Windows 7

I am trying to install the latest version of itunes on my new laptop and the installer won't run. It is a samsung sereis 7 notebook running Windows 7.
I have downloaded itunes multiple times and tried running as administrator. I do not get any error, and occasionally a progress bar will flash up on screen for a couple of seconds but then nothing happens. Other times I don't even get the progress bar, just nothing happens when I try to open the installer.
Would appreciate any help with this problem. Its driving me crazy not being able to add new music to my ipod!

Check the iPod Hardisk, with DiskDiagnostic as posted here by tt2
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17776595#17776595
It wont fix your problem, but help us both, in troubleshooting, and reducing frivolous suggestions.
If your report says high Realloc or Pending Sector, then it's time to have your hardisk replaced.
Have a nice day!

Everytime I turn on my computer running on Windows XP, a message appears from AppleSynchNotifier.exe-Unable to locate component - "this application has failed to start because CoreFoundation .dll was not found," Reinstalling did not fix problem.

Everytime I turn on my computer running on Windows XP, a message appears from AppleSynchNotifier.exe - Unable to Locate Component -

I uninstalled and re-installed itunes and the message still appears.
How do I fix this??
Thank you

With that one, first try uninstalling and reinstalling your MobileMe Control Panel for Windows, robin. Does that make the error go away?

Error r6034 in trying to install iTunes on a computer running Windows 7

In trying to solve the problem of the runtime error R6034, I have tried all of the suggestions but cannot remove Apple Mobile Device. I moved on to the next program on the list and uninstalled all but that one. When I rebooted and reinstalled itunes I got the same r6034 runtime Error.
When that failed, I went to restore and chose a date that I knew itunes had worked. But after the restore, I received the same error plus one that said AdCore.dll file is missing. I'm stuck now since I cannot install iTunes. BTW, along with Apple Mobile Device not uninstalling, iTunes does not appear in my list of installed programs, so I cannot clean the computer of all apple software.

Hello tct2125,
The following article provides steps that can help get iTunes successfully updated and running.

TS5376 I have a laptop that i am running with Windows Vista. A while ago, it stopped running iTunes and comes up with the error : Runtime Error: R6034 - An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.

I have an iMac as my home computer, upgraded to this about a year ago from a windows pc and love it.
However...
I have a HP Compaq laptop that i am running with Windows Vista, which I use when travelling. A while ago, I believe on an update, to either windows or itunes, it stopped running iTunes and comes up with the error : Runtime Error: R6034 - An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
I have a reasonable amount of tunes stored on my laptop, and am unable to ascertain as to whether this fix for allowing itunes to work again will delete my music folder and lose all the tunes i have on my laptop already?
The contents of my music folders on my laptop and iMac are not the same, as they are not synced!
Any help please on this would be appreciated!

I AM UNABLE TO LOAD THE NEWEST VERSION OF ITUNES BECAUSE WHEN I RUN THE NEW VERSION, I AM TOLD THE OLD VERSION OF BONJOUR COULDN'T BE REMOVED AN I WILL NEED TECH SUPPORT. IS THERE ANY THING ELSE I CAN DO BEFORE I PAY TO HAVE TECH SUPPORT HELP?

I am unable to load the newest version of itunes because when I run the program, i am told the old version of Bonjour could not be removed. As a result the program fails to run completely. What can I do to get the older version of Bonjour removed? I tried unsuccesfully to remove the older version of itunes

bobjbkln - Your link will not help. The supject is:

but the poster says he has a Mac with OSX 10.5.
For the original poster (OP), try posing in the iTunes form since now you have an iTunes problem, not an iPod problem.

Itunes library unable to sync after upgrading to Windows 8

I have all my iTunes contents (TV shows, movies and music) saved in an external hard drive.
Recently I upgraded my PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, and I downloaded the latest iTunes after transitioning to Windows 8.1.
The problem is, the iTunes is unable to sync with iTunes library contents and I have to manually add each file back to iTunes, despite iTunes is able to recognize the media folder location under "Preferences".
Is there a way to automatically sync up all content files? Thanks.

Hello shumyeah,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes. It sounds like your music is on an external hard drive, and you would like iTunes to point to that library and store all your music files there. I also see that you have the iTunes Preferences set to save new content to the iTunes Media folder on the external drive.
The next steps is to to choose the iTunes Library on your external drive when launching iTunes. Follow these steps:
Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Startmenu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
You should see the following screen:
You can then choose the iTunes Library on your external drive. You can find the full article here:

I update my iTunes in my PC running window 7 today and immediately afterthat iTunes programme hauled. What shall I do??? Can somebody help me??

Hey yeow28,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues after updating iTunes for Windows. The following article may provide a solution:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
Check for .dll files
1. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
2. If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
3. Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
1. Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
2. Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using theMicrosoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
3. Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
Thanks,
Matt M.

My new 8th gen iPod nano is 'not recognized' by my computer. My computer runs on Windows 7, and I've installed and updated the latest versions of itunes etc, but still to no avail! I've tried different usb ports, troubleshooting...

My computer runs on Windows 7, and I've installed and updated the latest versions of itunes etc, but still to no avail! I've tried different usb ports, troubleshooting, etc... But it still says "One of the USB decuces arrached to this omputer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it".
The iPod is brand new, sent to me by Apple as part of the 1st gen replacement programme. I've been using the cable that came with the 1st gen iPod (I bought the first gen second hand) It always worked on my computer with the 1st gen iPod. So I was wondering, do you think I need to replace my cable in order for my PC to recognize my iPod or is it something else?
Thanks

Try a different cable. And are you connecting directly to your computer or through a USB hub?

When I connect my iTouch to my PC (windows 7) an error message is displayed reading "iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later".

When I connect my iTouch to my PC (windows 7) an error message is displayed reading "iTunes was unable to load dataclass information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later". I have completely uninstalled and then reinstalled iTunes. I have also completely reset my iTouch to factory defaults. I have even followed all the advice provided previously to other forum member with the same problem. Nothing seems to work. Please help me someone.

I'm getting the same problem with both my IPad 4 and iPhone 5
Just started a few weeks back, Since then I have had two Itunes updates.
Is this something Apple is aware of and trying to fix?
