ITunes encountering a problem - error message

I recently bought an iPod nano and successfully upgraded my itunes with no problems. Have been using it fine until yesterday when I tried to go onto it I received the message "Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close". We have since de-installed both itunes and quicktime and re-installed both but I still keep getting this message. Help! What's gone wrong?

I've found some article that may help you:

Itunes encounters a problem and needs to close

This is the error I suddenly started getting today when I try to open itunes. Also, when I try to open quicktime or watch something in quicktime nothing happens (no error and it doesn't open). I feel this is a problem with quicktime since itunes needs that program. Any suggestions? It's SO frustrating!

First try installing "Quicktime WITHOUT iTunes" here, THEN try opening itunes http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html

ITunes encounters a problem and closes

I keep opening ITunes but as soon as it starts delivering ITune Match results it closes.

If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT) as you start iTunes, then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turing off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.
Assuming we're talking of the same issue (there are several) it seems to be a problem with this build of iTunes affecting a small number of users. It is as yet unclear exactly why, or how to fix completely.

ITunes "encounters" a problem whenever i connect my iPod

Hello.
I have a problem with iTunes. Whenever i connect my iPod to my computer, iTunes says: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to be shut down". This keeps me from synching my iPod and adding/or removing music from it, and it really is a pain! I have tried uninstalling it and installing it again. I've tried restarting my computer. None of the things I've tried has worked, and I haven't been able to find help on any other forums. The strange thing is that this problem seems to have occurred after I installed version 8.1. And by the way, I'm using Windows XP.
Any help wil be much appreciated,
Errol

First uninstall iTunes AND quicktime in control panel>add remove. Goto acer web site and download any patches and updates they offer, especailly for iTunes issues for your model.
Now disable any antivirus programs and security programs and things then goto apple.com and download/install the latest version of iTunes, don't install what came with your iPod on CD for its likly outdated by now anyways. When its done installing, reboot the PC

Itunes encounters an error and closes when I try to sync pictures

When I try to sync pictures to my itouch itunes encounters an error and shuts down. I have the itouch attached to the computer and my settings are to get pictures from file folder. I have done all the updates and have searched the support discussions for some ideas, but have had no lock. All the software is current. Any help would be greatly appriecated.

itunes encounters an error and shuts down.
That would be an unusual error message to be getting if you were having a problem with a photo cache ... but just in case ...
Try deleting your iTunes photo cache, as per the following document:
Photo Sync creates iPod photo Cache
... can you get a photo sync to go through without the crash after that?

Well I was able to successfully revert back to iTunes8. Here's my steps:
1. In Add/Remove Programs I deleted all Apple products (iTunes, QuickTime, Safari, Bonjour, etc.)
2. I then check C:\Program Files\ and made sure all folders were deleted (QuickTime, etc.)
3. I then ran a Registry Cleaner program to make sure all entries from Apple products were removed.
4. I then rebooted my PC
5. I then downloaded iTunes8.0.2 from here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipod_itunes/itunes802forwindows.html
6. After it installed it said it could use my iTunes library file because it was created with a newer version. So I re-created my library by following these steps: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
It took some time but iTunes is now back up and running. And I have all my playlists, etc. I haven't tried to sync anything yet. I'm just thrilled to have my iTunes back!

Hello i'm facing problem i downloaded itunes version 11 32bit for windows 7 and after i installing the set up when i opened the iTunes a massages occur saying i tunes could not connect to iTunes store an unknown error occurred (-3212) even though my internet is on

Try this...
Triple click anywhere in the line below to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
cmd /k netsh winsock reset
Press the WinLogoKey+R to open the run dialog, then Ctrl+V to paste, then press enter/return.
You should get something similar to this:
Reboot the computer and the problem should be resolved.
If it doesn't work then perhaps a full tear down and rebuild of iTunes will fix things. See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details.

ITunes "encountered a problem and needs to close" error

hey guys and gals, i really need help. i've been trying to fix my iTunes software for months now. Without further ado, here's what happened:
installed itunes
deleted quicktime accidently
installed quicktime
installed itunes
itunes still doesn't work
installed and reinstalled multiple times from both the c.d. and itunes.com
Therefore, when i attempt to open my itunes program, the dialoge box stating, "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Send error report, dont send."
the details of the error report are:
"information regarding the condition of iTunes when the problem occured; the operating system version and computer hardware in use; your digital product id, which could be used to identify your license; and internet protocol(ip) address of your computer.
we do not intentionally collect your files, name, address, email address or any other form of personally identifiable information. however, the error report could contain coustomer- specific information such as data from open files. while this information could potentially be used to determine your idenity, if present, it will not be used. the data that we collected will only be used to fix the problem. if more information is available, we will tell you when you report the problem. this error report will be sent using a secure connection to a database with limited access and will not be used for marketing purposes."
for the love of god, help me. i really wanna get my itunes working.(i have no antivirus software, such as mcaffee or norton, etc)
i really appreciate it
-kevin spanky

great, but when i did this, the agreement popped up and disappeared as soon as it came up, before i could press anything.
yuck. that's consistent with a malware infestation problem that has been causing error-less itunes launch failures since late October. but there's another couple of main possibilities that we have to check on for these "error-less" launch failures. let's try to firm up the diagnosis a bit.
first let's make an observation.
reboot your PC. open Task Manager to the Processes Tab. now try to launch itunes again.
does an itunes.exe process appear in Task Manager? if so, does it persist in there, or disappear after a few seconds?
if itunes.exe persists in Task Manager
do you have Norton Internet Security 2005? if so, first see:
iTunes 6 won't open on a Windows computer if firewall software is not up-to-date
... but if no joy with that, try the trusty Lorraine M technique:
Lorraine M: NIS/itunes problem rectified
... but if you don't have NIS 2005 (or symptoms persist), check up on this possibility:
iTunes for Windows doesn't open after upgrading
if itunes.exe doesn't appear in Task Manager (or disappears after a few seconds)
then we have to check up on the malware possibilities.
(this is not a cure, it's a final diagnostic.) use MSCONFIG to get iTunes launching again:
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
after the selective startups, don't launchother applications prior to opening itunes. (this has been known to re-trigger the launch suppression.)
post back with a list of the Startup items that you needed to disable in order for itunes to launch again. exact spelling and capitalisation please.

When trying to open ITunes, I got an error message of msvcr80.dll can not be found.
Assuming that it was an iTunes file, I reinstalled iTunes.
Trying to open again, I got an error message of an appication is trying to open a library file incorrectly.
How do I resolve this problem.
Neither my PC with Vista nor my my laptop with windows 7 will work?

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:

Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.

Problem with syncing iPod ... Itunes and windows show errors... itunes 7...

hey guys... since I upgraded to itunes7 my ipod (4th gen click wheel) doesnt sync poperly! it all began when I was syncing the ipod and my screen just froze a few secs after connecing the ipod! I had to restart the computer and reset my ipod... from that time had alot of trouble!
first the screen froze immediately when I connected my ipod with the pc and later when i had formatted it with windows several times and resetted it a million times with itunes7, itunes and windows show errors (error (-124) while syncing and everything stops! I've just spent nearly two nights on that and really hope that my ipod didn't break just because of itunes7! to stay in proper english and not get that angry in letters that I am in mind--- please so help me... my ipod is everything and im a music junkey! by the way... itunes itself works perfectly... if i not sync! how peculiar that getting back to itunes6 is impossible...i tried it... does it hav a spec reason, hah!
IBM, Pentium3 (666MHZ), FW(desire to fire), Ipod Click Wheel Windows XP 30cm

I tried formatting the ipod with windows! in the end of it windows says that it was not able to format the drive properly. then I click ok, open itunes, restore the ipod, try to sync again and have the problem that after a while the whole thing freezes... no more errors....just from the moment i disconnect the ipod manually from the cable, everything gets back to normal life again! I do not know what to do! do you guys think, my computer is too old or maybe my ipod's broke???
I'm despairing people...never had problems like that until itunes7! I tried as well to close all the other working programs with the task manager... doesn't change it!
Thx for the help!
