ITunes Cannot be open with error message

hi, I having this problem, when i try to open it show me: Runtime error. pls help

Try removing the Genius database. In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ directory and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.

ITunes won't open - wordless error message

When I try to open itunes, I get a wordless error message that only shows a red octagon behind the itunes application symbol. The only option is to click 'OK'. Any ideas what this is and how to deal with it? I haven't used itunes in a few weeks, so I have no idea when this problem occurred. I've searched online and in the forum, so apologies if I'm missing something obvious!

ITunes opens with error message "Eyephedrine 2.60: unable to locate tm9J plugin" and won't sync my iphone (doesn't even show up when plugged in)

...also, iTunes won't quit--I have to force quit to get out of it. but the not syncing my iPhone 3G is a much bigger problem! Thanks for any
help!

Try the steps in this Apple article -> iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
Does the error still appear after after removing the plug-ins from the path mentioned below?
/Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
Is the iPhone recognized correctly after stopping the Eyephedrine plug-in error? And is iTunes now able to connect to the online store?

ITunes will not open (no error message and not running Norton 2005)

I have recently upgraded to iTunes 7 and I now cannot get it to open after clicking on the icon. The iTunes.exe process comes up in the task manager briefly then disappears. There is NO accompanying error message and I am NOT running Norton Antivirus 2005. I have already tried reinstalling the standalone version of quicktime and I have used msconfig so that I essentially have only the necessary iTunes/quicktime processes running (no antivirus/antispyware/anti-popup software is running in the background). I have Windows 2000 and I have never had a problem with iTunes until now. Somebody please help me out here.

wapierce,
It looks like we have covered all the bases here. Unfortunatly it looks like The computer cannot run iTunes or the OS has an issue that may require a reeinstall.
Lets verify the Hardware and OS one more time. Click Start> right click My Computer> Properties(you can also open My Computer then click view system information on the left side of the window.) What does the processor and Memory say here? Also what is it saying aout Windows.
Make sure there are no upadtes available for the computer.
When you installed iTunes did you make any registry changes? It sounds like the next step would be doing a restore or re-install of Windows on the computer.

Windows XP: iTunes will not open - no error message

Hi,
I have a fresh install of Windows XP with no other programs installed but Firefox, a graphics driver, and a wireless adapter driver - all on C:. This computer was built for surfing the net and managing an iPod... that's pretty much it. Anyway, I have reinstalled several times both Windows and iTunes and every single time I can install successfully, the event log confirms that it installed successfully, and then when I go to open iTunes, nothing happens. Not even an error message. The hourglass starts and then it disappears and... nothing. Its as if I never opened it. The event log shows this int he application folder:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( iPod Service ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Service started.
I'm not sure this has anything to do with it because it doesn't indicate an error, just that an event occurred and it has no description for it.
Please help me... TIA!

After trying sto start iTunes, open the Task manger and look on the processes tab, do you see iTunes.exe running?
If so you have a problem that is commonly due to an issue with cryptographic services.
If you have just done a fresh install, was the smart card service installer, iTunes requires it.
Here are my troubleshooting steps for silent launch failure with iTunes.exe running in the task manager:
Before checking if iTunes works, restart your PC or close the iTunes.exe process with task manager if it is running.
A couple of simple things to try:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1776?viewlocale=en_US
Stop the bonjour service, this FAQ has instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2250?viewlocale=en_US
But usually it is due to a problem with cryptographic services.
Check to see if you have your smart card service and that it is not set to disabled. For some reason iTunes needs it.
Start>>Run>>Services.msc
you should find the smart card service in the list. Report back with your findings.
Malware can interfere with cryptographic services and also pervert a resolution so it is important to check that your system is clean before proceeding: Run a virus and spyware scan with up to date definitions.
Then work through *Method 4* in the following link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822798
You should be able to copy and paste the individual lines to save on typing.
Make a careful note of any error messages you get, they are important for diagnosis. Report back any error messages especially the names of any dlls mentioned.
If there are no errors try starting iTunes.

Mozilla will not open with error message: platform 1.5.2.15 is not compatible with min version =1.9.2.16 max version = 1.9.2.16

Cant open Mozilla in normal mode. Also get same error message when trying to click on embedded links in internet explorer and outlook express emails

Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Itunes will not open - no error message - flashes user agreement and closes

I just updated Itunes to 10.5.1 I am running MacOs 10.6.8 on a macbook pro. when I open Itunes it flashes the user agreement and then closes. no error message. please, for the love of all that is holy, help me

Dear Julian,
I have had this problem for the past year, I have tried everything except the obvious (and correct) solution:
immediately after you click itunes (from the dock) start rapidly pushing the enter button. when the licence agreement flashes it already has "okay" highlighted so if you press enter at the right time it will continue opening Itunes - you may have to try it a few times to get it right, but it works. isnt it wonderful that someone on this forum responded to your inquiry? thanks for posting!

ITunes won't open, QuickTime error message

By accident, I deleted QuickTime, and can now not open iTunes, so I downloaded QuickTime again, recieved a message that QuickTime has been successfully downloaded, but when I try to open/run it, I get this error message:
"C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\ContentIE5\TYMNQEZC\Quicktimeinstaller[1].exe is not a valid Win32 application"
I am a computer illiterate, Please help me!

hmmm. let's try an alternate technique for swapping out your QuickTime that doesn't involve redownloading an installer.
first let's just make sure your previous QuickTime is thoroughly gone.
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?

Itunes won't open. continual error message

Itunes 8 won't open. I click to try to open it and I get "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." I've tried plugging in Ipod to see if it will help in opening itunes. it won't. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. I've tried taking itunes library out and opening...same error. Please help!

ITunes will not open, get error message 7(windows error 126) this application has failed to start because d3d9.dll was not found. re-installing the application may fix this problem. well i did and did not fix anything.

this application has failed to start because d3d8thk.dll could not be found. I looked that file up and it seems its part of directx. i installed directx again but that still did not help.

d3d8thk.dll
That one is a DirectX 8 module and might not be included in the most recent DirectX 9 redistributable available from Microsoft. If it's been installed as part of a partial DirectX 8 install (as part of a game for example), that can cause the issue. Can you track down a full DirectX 8 redistributable? If so, if you install that, does that clear up the iTunes error?

ITUNES WONT OPEN COMES UP WITH ERROR MESSAGE

ITUNES WONT OPEN COMES UP WITH ERROR MESSAGE (send error report one)

some preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
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?)
