Itunes does not open after saying successfully installed

I have downloade the latest itunes. It says successfully installed but it does not open. I have restarted the computer but it still does not open. What can I do?

Try following steps one at a time:
1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator"
2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

ITune does not open after installing IE7

I have recently installed Internet Explorer 7 on my Window XP (with service pack 2). This causes me problem in opening iTune right now. After removing IE7, then restart the computer and reinstall iTune, I still cannot open iTune.
Does anyone aware of this problem? Any suggestion as in how I can iTune running again. I have all songs organized in iTune and I have just used for long time. I want it to run again.
Please help!!!
Thanks

Hi, Denise.
There are no particular problems iTunes has running with IE7 - no problems I have or I have heard of - so let's try to get an idea of what might be going on with some preliminary questions from b noir's "smack" for iTunes fails to launch situations:
Is there an error message associated with the launch failure?
If so, what does it say and what (if any) error numbers are there?
If there's not an error mesage, let's check your QuickTime (its well-being is a prerequisite to a functioning iTunes).
Go to the XP Start menu > All Programs and try running QuickTime.
Does it start?
If not, then the same question as for iTunes - is there an error message?
If so, what does it say and what (if any) error numbers are there?
Do you notice any other peculiar behavior with QuickTime?

Itunes does not open after install of 7.......solution maybe

hey
Ive been having the problem that itunes wouldn't open and nothing happened....no error messages nutin. The hour glass comes on but for 2 seconds. It doesnt register in task manager either.
However, i have managed to make it come back so if you have same problem give it a shot because its worked for me so far....
1. go to my music
2. open folder called itunes
3. click on previous libraries
4. click on the most recent library
5. give it a couple of minutes and it should come up.
This has worked for me and now when i click the icon it comes up i just have to wait a little bit.
My library hadnt been updated after the install so fortunately all my music is there so i dont know what will happen if you had put more music on inbetween the update and when it stopped working.
i havent purchased anything yet so dont know how that will affect it but it at least gives you a chance to backup your music......
Hope this helps
Sony Windows XP

did anyone find that this worked for them or is it a one off?

My iTunes will not open after a re-install

I went to the apple store b/c my computer was running my computer has been running slow. They told me to try to do a re-install after saving things on an external hard drive. I followed their advice and now iTunes now will not work. I tried to download iTunes 8, but my system requirements won't allow for it. Next, I tried to download version 7 as I know that one should work. But, once it was done downloading I had a application, with no program to open it with. I am not sure how to get it back up and running. Any ideas?

I slept on it, and tried to open up iTunes today...for some reason the error message changed and now said I needed a newer version of Quick Time. I got the latest one, then it said I needed to upgrade the iTunes, so I did that as well (I got version 7.3.1) and then was able to get it to work.

ITunes does not open after I have agreed to the software licensing agreement

When i try to open itunes it just comes up witht the agreement i click agree and then nothing I have tried uninstall reinstall update repair deleting prefs etc
It works on another user account
any suggestions appreciated
thanks

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

CD Drive Door does not open after Super Drive Install

Yesterday, I installed a Pioneer DVR-109 8X DVD-R/RW Super Drive in my Power Mac G4 450 AGP Graphics. Everything seemed to fit back together just fine, but now I cannot open the drive door by pressing the button. I have to manually pull the door down and insert a paper clip to open the drive and insert a CD. Is there something I missed when putting the thing back together?
Power Mac G4 450 Sawtooth Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Carolyn, welcome to Apple Discussions.
I had the same problem when I replaced the Apple CD/DVD drive on my G4 AGP with a drive that had write capabilities. The problem seemed to be a slight difference in the drive's front mounting dimensions. The plastic lever on the front bezel would not depress the button on the drive far enough. To fix the problem, I cut a slim section from a rubber eraser, & using masking tape, positioned the rubber spacer over the drives button. Now it works perfectly. You may have to experiment with how thick the rubber is.

Itunes does not work after Update any more

Itunes does not start after the uodate and cannot be reinstalled.
Seems not only a problem to me
Any solutions yet ?

Hello Wizzie71,
It sounds like you updated iTunes and now it will not open. Try the steps outlined in the following article. You may need to re install iTunes but your library will remain intact if you do.

With that one, the only workaround I'm aware of at the moment is to disable your BonJour Service.
Right-click "My Computer" and select "Manage".
Expand "Services and Applications"
Open "Services"
Right click on the BOnJour service and select "properties".
In the General tab, change the start-up type to "disabled".
OK out of the tab.
Restart the PC. Does iTunes launch for you now?

ITunes does not open when ipod connected

Since installing the 1.1 update, iTunes does not open when I connect my nano to the computer. Both computer and iTunes (when I manually open it) recognize the nano, so no big deal. Just wondering how to make iTunes automatically open.

Sometimes the Preferences get corrupt - if you set them off and then back on that sometimes clears the problem.

Itunes will not open, message says library was created with earlier version. what now?,

itunes will not open, message says library was created with earlier version. what do i do?

Unless you just attempted to downgrade iTunes to an earlier verison this is probably a sign of a corrupt library.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.
