ITunes doesnt launch :(

Recently i reinstalled my Windows XP (SP2). I installed iTunes.8 but it doesnt launch. I tried with that: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1593?viewlocale=en_US but it didn't help. Scanned my computer, then turned off my antivirus(avast 4.8) and still the same. What's strange i have iTunes.exe in task manager. When i connect my iPod nano it is just recognized as a massive storage disc and that's it. I reinstalled every 7th version of itunes and it worked till 7.4 but it doesn't support iPod Nano. I have NO IDEA what's wrong:( Please help!!

  • Itunes doesnt launch after hourglass, PLS HELP!!!

    I have tried downloading, re-downloading, doing this in different accounts, deleting different accounts, un-installing anything and everything to do with Itunes and Quicktime, re-installing them together and seperately, turning off firewalls during the installation process of itunes and quicktime (respectively),tried installing itunes and then deleting quicktime and re-downloading qicktime with and without firewalls. Needless to say I AM EXHAUSTED. I have tried just about everything that I come across in these forums and everytime I read a success in one person, I try that "remedy" with no positive result. I have a gateway with windows security system and spyware. i am not very computer suavy, though, I can follow instrcutions very clearly, so I seriously doubt that I am a lost cause, thanks ANYONE that can help I would really appreciate it.

  • Itunes doesnt launch in Windows 7

    Itunes has stopped launching in my WIndows 7? I have uninstalled and re-instaled twice with no effect.

    An un-install of iTunes needs to be done in a specific order! Try these instructions:

    Hopefully it helps!

  • Itunes doesnt Open, at all

    Ive been having this problem for a while on my laptop, Itunes doesnt open when i plug my Iphone in, or even when i open it seperatly. The process shows up in process manager but the itunes window never appears. I have tryed Uninstalling and re installing everything but it still occurs.
    Any help?

    Some questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
    (1) Does your QuickTime Player launch, or do you get an error message of some kind when you try to launch that?
    (2) If your QuickTime Player seems to be launching fine, 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?
    If iTunes launches with the BonJour Service disabled, by any chance do you have a recent version of IOBit's Advanced SystemCare utility installed on the PC? If so, try uninstalling and reinstalling Advanced SystemCare. Can you launch iTunes with the BonJour Service enabled, now?

  • TS3212 what do i do if my itunes doesnt open after downloading or not at all?

    what do i do if my itunes doesnt open after downloading or not at all?

    Okay.
    Can you check something for me please?
    Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
    Now try to launch iTunes.
    Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

  • My itunes doesnt want to open on my computer

    what to do because my itunes doesnt open on my computer

    Try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.
    If not try working through TS1717: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
    Otherwise 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.

    the best way would be to copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on your Mac to the external, then launch iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder on the external.

    that tells iTunes where to put new additions to your library, not where the content currently is.

  • Why does iTunes keep launching?

    All of a sudden, out of the blue, iTunes keeps launching when an alarm goes off in the application Alarm Clock Pro (ACP).  My wife is a teacher and ever since August 2011 I created alarms to notify her five minutes before the end of her classes.  She doesn't know how to change anything in ACP and she doesn't use iTunes.  Nothing has been changed but last week every time an alarm goes off iTunes launches.
    I've gone through and checked the preferences in both programs and nothing points to this issue.  I know, ACP has an option to launch and play something in iTunes but this is NOT selected.
    Any help or suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I thought at one time you there was a setting to prevent iTunes opening when a device was plugged in, I don't believe that the sync option will prevent that.
    In your login items, System Preferences/Users and Groups do you have an item "iTunes Helper" I think this is the application monitoring the devices you plugin.
    You could try closing that application in Activity Monitor and plugging your devices in and checking if it stop iTunes opening, also check if it stops it opening through the day. If it does just remove it from your login items after confirming it does not impact on other iTunes uses.

  • Itunes wont launch, no error message, no blue screens, just wont open

    itunes wont launch, i get no error message, no blue screen, it just wont open. I've tried to delete and reinstall, but once i close itunes i still have same issue. it wont open again.

    I have same problem  on my XP lap top and Windows 7 PC.    Apple have been investigating this problem for me for a week now without success so far.  Understand it 's ongoing with other customers as well.
      It is caused by an bit of program called APSDaemon supplied by Apple in latest i-Tunes.     Your quick fix to enable you to open i-Tunes again is as follows:-     open Task Manager (right click bottom toolbar), click on Task Manager, select Processes.   Find APSDaemon, highlight and press END PROCESS.      I-tunes will now re-open ok.   You have to repeat this every time you want i-Tunes re-opened until you switchoff or restart.
    A pain I know, but lets you keep going until Apple repair and release an update for i-Tunes

    Hey, my ipad is disabled and i cant open. i tried connecting it with itunes in recovery mode to restore it but it wont work it doesnt show and options itunes doesnt detect my ipad in recovery mode. what do i do know? please help!!!

    If you followed these instructions and you were unable to enter recovery mode, I'm still leaning toward a hardware problem.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.  It might help.

  • How can I stop iTunes from launching and playing by itself?

    iTunes launches and plays by itself, which is very annoying, given that there is no discernable reason for it to do so.
    Nothing in preferences should allow this. No device is connected. The library is not being shared.
    Has anyone found a solution to this?

    Check Dashboard to see if you have any iTunes-related widgets running. If so, close them and see if that makes a difference. Similarly, look for any third-party apps that may be related to iTunes, such as apps that copy "now playing" information to a web site.
    Another possibility is external speakers, if you have them. Another user here found that a loose speaker connection may cause random launching and playing on iTunes. Try wiggling the speaker plug and see if that causes iTunes to launch.  If so, unplugging and reconnecting the speakers may cure the problem. If not, you may have a defective speaker jack or an off-size plug on the speakers.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I stop iTunes from launching when I hit the button on my head phones

    On my MBP I have some head phones that have an inline mic with call answer button. The button on the head phones is fairly sensitive and I tend to bump it on accident often. When I hit the button iTunes is launched or if I have it open it starts music.
    Is there anyway to stop this from happening? This is driving me crazy!

    This problem has been an issue for a number of months and has led to frustration and public humiliation on countless occasions.
    When disconnecting from my Bose Soundlink at home (playing nothing) in order to taking my laptop on the run I open my laptop to find that the entire contents of my iTunes playlist is being belted in public. The subway, the library, my classroom is not the time or place for my laptop to make the decision to begin playing my music without permission. When at home and my Soundlink goes on standby I have nearly had a heart attack when my laptop spontaneously begins blaring my music when I wasn't even touching the thing.
    I love my Soundlink and I love my Mac but together the devices are causing no end of aggravation with no fix in sight. With each OS update I hope the problem is addressed but to no avail, it is getting tiresome that such a flaw isn't being fixed in a timely manner.
