ITunes does not open and I've tried almost everything

Everytime I have tried to open iTunes (I just downloaded the new one) this error pops up...
I have tried to repair, uninstall and reinstall Quick Time and iTunes nothing has seemed to work. I have also tried to change my settings in my Control Panel under Sounds and Autio Devices. That hasn't helped.
Someone please help. I have run out of ideas.
We just got a new computer and transfered files from our old computer to this one. I'm not sure if there are any corrupt files that were transfered through iTunes but I am confused because iTunes still works on that computer but it's the old version before this new version came out.

I have been having the same problem, but I don't even get an error message. When I click on itunes, the hourglass starts moving, but then nothing. I've tried repairing, uninstalling and reinstalling, and NOTHING works. I'm hoping to get it working by Christmas, as my daughter is getting an ipod.

Itunes does not open. I have tried to uninstall it and install it many times as i have seen on some communities but still keep on getting the Itunes was not install correctly. Please reinstall itunes. Error 7 (Windows 193). I have windows 7.

iTunes will not open, I keep getting the error 7 (windows error 193).
I have tried many recommendations, erasing folders, reinstalling it many time but nothing.
I have a windows 7 Lenovo ideapad.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you are running 64-bit Windows and the above steps haven't helped try installing the version of iTunes that can be downloaded from this support document. iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)

ITunes Will Not Open and I have Tried Everything Posted...

Please Help!
I have downloaded the latest version, deleted it and tried again. I have deleted folders, turned off my Norton protection and still no go.
Can anyone here help me from this 7 hour nightmare? I had an iPod and iTunes on this computer before I traded in the old iPod and bought the new 30GB. Now the iTunes won't open and the PC doesn't recognize the iPod when I hook it up. Is there a solution??? It worked with the old one just yesterday, so why is there a problem today with the new unit?
HELP!!!

Did you install the software that came with your IPOD. You may need to install the "Updater" for that model IPOD before ITUnes will recognize it.

ITunes does not open and gives no error message on Vista

Hello,
I have an iPhone 4 on Windows Vista and haven't really had any problems until recently. Nothing has changed (that I am aware of) on my Vista machine but now, iTunes won't start and I am not getting any error message. It just brings up a message box that reads, "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program." Then I have the option to close the program and that is it. No error messages or any other indication of what is going on.
When I first encountered this, I followed the steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and removed and reinstalled the latest version of iTunes (which was already working). I actually did it twice because I thought I messed it up. I was still getting the same problem.
I did try setting Bonjour to Disabled in Services as written here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2618748. That actually seemed to work, but only twice. I am back again to the same issue.
Any ideas at what I should be looking at to help solve this issue?
Thank you for the help.

b noir,
Here's some additional information. Between the time you responded and I had uninstalled iTunes and cleaned it up. Also, I followed the steps to install iTunes without all the extra "stuff" from this article: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/the-unofficial-guide-to-installing-itunes-10-with out-bloatware/2390
After I installed it, using the guide, I realized I had accidentally installed version 10.0.0.6 (or something like that). However, iTunes was working. Except, when I connected my iPhone4, I got an error saying that I needed to update iTunes because it wasn't compatible with my iPhone (or something like that). That was my fault for not installing the right version - but it did work.
So I went through the whole cleanup again, checking the registry, folders, etc. for any traces of iTunes or Apple stuff. I then reinstalled the latest version of iTunes using the ZDNET article. However, when I started it, I got the same crash again. Below is the information from Problem Reports and Solutions:

Itunes will not open and I have tried fixing it!!

i double click on the icon and it comes up with this
The itunes application could not be opnened. An unknown error occured (0x666D743F)
Thanks

First see:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes fails to launch with an unknown error
There are some other possibilities
That error has been known to be produced by having Total Recorder or the Volume Logic plug-in installed on the PC.
For a workaround for Total Recorder, see:
chuckieb: One fix for iTunes 7 "0x666D743F" error
To check on the Volume Logic issue, see:
Troubleshooting issues with 3rd-party iTunes add-ons
For further possibilities, see other posts in chuckieb’s thread.

I just installed 10.2.2. When I tried to start iTunes, I got the message that Rosetta needed to be installed to open iTunes. It downloaded and installed Rosetta but iTunes will not open and it no longer has the iTunes icon. What do I do now?

I installed iTunes 10.2.2. When I tried to open it, I got the message that iTunes needs to install Rosetta to open. It then appeared to download and and install Rosetta. When I try to open iTunes, the icon bounces but iTunes does not open. The icon has also changed from the usual iTunes icon. What do I do now?

I have a 2010 MBP15 which I do not use as much as my pc. When I do, I check for updates and I believe I updated iTunes to 10.2.2 a week or so ago. Since I still use iTunes primarily on my pc, I didn't bother firing up the updated iTunes on the mac.
Last week, when I actually started iTunes on the mac, I got the message that Rosetta needed to be installed. Like abefighter I stalled. I surfed the net, read this thread to get some hints as to w** was going on.
When I checked the system profile in the mac, I think it showed PowerPC for 'kind.' Surfing the Internet I found out Rosetta was something needed to help applications work on PowerPCs. But wait, since this MBP is an Intel, why would or should it be asking me for some stone-age plug-in that was never mentioned in all the previous updates for iTunes until now? Fyi, the iTunes icon on the dock had changed to what I think is an AppleWorks icon.
So, I assumed that the update that resulted in my mac was corrupted. At first I scoured for 10.2.1, thinking that the last version was a dud, but in vain, nowhere to be found. I gave up and settled for a fresh 10.2.2. I did a casual delete, without touching any of the related personal preference files in my folder and it now which works fine. I'm glad I didn't jump to install Rosetta; I read elsewhere about someone who actually went through with the Rosetta install that resulted unhappily.
Unless the mac in question is a PowerPC, I would doubt the need for Rosetta installation.

Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes. iTunes does not "see" the devise. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.

Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes using laptop PC (W Vista). iTunes does not "see" the device. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does. Just want to get it operating again for browsing and e-reading.

OK. You merely erased the content and settings. The IOS is still there.
If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures. From what you've already stated, my guess is that you'll end up with Recovery Mode described in the last paragraph.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

Best route here is to uninstall iTunes completely using the Windows Control Panel.
Make sure you know exactly which version of Win 7 you're running.
Restart your computer from cold (with no iTunes).
Go to Apple website and download the correct version for your operating system. Install following Apple prompts.
Once installed, close iTunes.
Restart your computer from cold (with new iTunes).
Start iTunes - all should be operating well! Good luck ...

Hey sebasac,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with iTunes on a Mac. Let’s see if we can isolate this issue by starting iTunes in safe mode:
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3430
There are several ways in which an add-on can cause iTunes to act erratically, such as those listed below:
- Loss of iTunes functionality, such as the Visualizer.
- Distortion or irregularity in the iTunes interface.
- Slow performance.
- iTunes won't open or quits unexpectedly.
- You see an alert while syncing stating "... cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified."
If you notice any of the above symptoms or other unusual behavior, you can disable any plug-ins not manufactured by Apple by opening iTunes in Safe Mode. This is done by holding down the Option and Command keys (on Mac OS X) or holding down the Shift and Control keys (on Windows) while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see the following dialog before iTunes finishes starting up:
"iTunes is running in Safe Mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been temporarily disabled."
If the above does not resolve your issue, I’d like to isolate further by testing in another user account:
Isolating an issue by using another user account
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4053
Symptoms
When isolating issues and/or troubleshooting software issues in OS X, you might want to use a different user account. Learn how to use this technique to narrow down the cause of an issue.
Resolution
The issue at hand may simply be caused by a bad preference setting or user-specific data file. With proper isolation, you can avoid time-consuming and inappropriate troubleshooting methods.
Thanks,
Matt M.
