ITunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found - QTCF error popup - can't open iTunes
Hi, whenever I try to open iTunes I also get this message:
iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll
I've tried uninstalling iTunes then reisntalling, uninstalling Quicktime, rebooted and I still get the same problem. I also moved QTCF.dll into iTunes. Still get the same error. I also tried a system restore, and I STILL get the same error.
I tried removing everything and turing off my antivirus and I still get this message and my iTunes does not work. Also when the message comes on it will not go away until I re-start my system. Any help out there on this???
Thanks.

So I followed the instructions and downloaded the newest version of iTunes like it told me, but after I did that, When I would attempt to get on iTunes an iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not found messege would come up. And it says The procedure entry point sqlite3preparev2 could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll.
That's a different one, smyth. At the moment, you could try basiam's workaround from the following post:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10444196#10444196
... however, this could possibly cause trouble in its own right next time you upgrade iTunes, given that there will be a misplaced, older SQLite3.dll in system32 ... So be sure to remember you've got that dll down there, and if you get an odd message about SQLite3.dll when you try launching iTunes *after your next iTunes upgrade,* delete the old copy of the dll in system32 and see if you get a normal launch without it there.

Why is my itunes not installing properly?
I installed itunes day before yesterday, I spent hours last night linking all my music photograph and movie files, its a new windows 8 laptop.
I plugged in my 64GB ipad 3 rebooted it and reloaded all the information I wanted on it, took hours... finally completed this this morning. After this I restarted the laptop to configure my icloud link for the laptop (which I installed last night while I was loading files, I chose to restart later)
on completion I turned my laptop off for a few hours, when I turned it back on I went to itunes to connect my iphone to do the same and I got this message:
iTunes exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point
AVCFPlayerAppliesMediaSelectionCriteriaAutomaticallyKey could not
be located in dynamiclink library F:\Programmes\iTunes.dll
OK
then after pressing 'OK' the following message:
iTunes
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes
Error 7 (Windows error 127)
I went back to apple website to reinstall iTunes, first reinstalled it same again, then unsinstalled it and the reinstalled it, same again.
The same thing happened with my old lap top and I replaced it with this new one at the start of the week.
Has anyone any idea what is going on and how to rectify this problem, I am now going on 3 weeks without iTunes.
Regards,
Damian36I started up and plugged in my iPad and then the following message came up:
iTunes
❗️This iPad cannot be used because the required software is not
Installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install
the 64-bit version of iTunes.
OK
I then proceeded to the "iTunes64Setup" expanded folder to load "AppleMobileDeviceSupport64"
Started the install and then received this message:
Apple Mobile Device Support
❗️Service 'AppleMobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device)
failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient
Privileges to start system services.
Abort. Retry. Ignore
I tried all tree options, last being ignore.
I continued to download the other 2 you suggested with out any drama.
I did a system restart and then opened iTunes.
Connected my iPad
Then message appears:
iTunes .exe - System Error
❌ The program can't start because CoreAdioToolbox.dll is missing from
Your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem.
OK
Press OK and then the next message:
iTunes

OK

Error: iTunes.exe Entry Point Not Found
I recently upgraded my iTunes to the latest version and am now receiving the following error when I try to open it:
"iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point kCMByteStreamNotification_AvailableLengthChanged could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll."
and when I click ok it then gives me this error message
"iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.
Error 7 (Windows error 127)"
I have tried the following several times:
reinstalled/repaired iTunes
reinstalled/repaired QuickTime
reinstalled/repaired Apple Software Update
reinstalled/repaired Apple Application Support
none of which have worked. I get the error each time i try to open iTunes and then it just shuts down.
I have also tried to open iTunes in safe mode - per a recommended solution on another thread - which does not work. And I changed my control panel/quicktime/audio settings to safe mode - per a recommended solution on another thread - which does not work.
I have not added any other new software
I am on an old lenovo T61 laptop with Windows XP
Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

My iTunes won't open on Windows XP. iTunes.exe - Entry point not found, Error 7 (Windows Error 127)
When I open iTunes, I get a message saying under iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found, it says, The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll. And I'm not talking about the AppleSyncNotifier.exe. Along with that, I get the message saying, "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall i Tunes." Error 7 (Windows Error 127). That's why I'm unable to open iTunes. I sure hope to see a solution to those problems soon.
I know I've mentioned this before, but I've now given a little more info to make my explanation more clear.Try this one from Article TS3074

Hi
I have tried to research these problems I am getting, but have not been able to resolve them.
1st is the above DDE Server Windows iTunes.exe - entry point not found.
This only occurs when I try to start iTunes.
if I click ok , several times, iTunes will start but slowly.
If at any time I have to reboot my computer I get
iTunesHelper.exe - the procedure entry point asl_add_log_file could not be located in the dynamic link library ASL.dll
if I click 3 times OK it goes away.
To this end I have uninstalled iTunes and rebooted my machine then gone to iTunes web site and downloaded the latest version.
Installing it but still get the same errors on reboot and trying to run iTunes
Anyone any ideas please.
I have a self build PC it has an Intel core 2 quad Q6000 @ 2.40GHz
Ram 4.00GB
32bit OS
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1
Firewall - Zonealarm
Virus - Zonealarm
Thanks in advance

Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

ITunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found itunes will install but wont run!!!!!!!!
I updated itunes and it wont work. i unistalled all apple apps, about 5 to 10 times. i get this message on my HP 530,32 bit windows vista. At the top in the error window it says
*iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found* Then under that in the error box it says:
*The procedure entry point*
*QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll.*
What do i DO PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!I found the qtcf.dll file in the sys32 moved it to the desktop tried iTunes and still same error message as above.
Okay ... sometimes there can be multiple copies of them lurking about on a PC.
Try heading into Computer, and typing QTCF.dll in your Search field. When Vista tells you it can't find the file, click "advanced" and tick the "Search hidden, non-indexed and system files (might be slow)" and then start another search.
This search *will indeed be slow.* Wait until the green progress bar up at the top of the screen has completely vanished, otherwise you might accidentally stop the search too soon.
What copies of QTCF.dll do you find, and where are their file locations? (The default location on a 32-bit Vista PC is in C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QTCF.dll) -
ITune.exe entry point not found
Hi G's (Geniuses)
I installed the new itune 9.0.3 and now i'm getting a error message that says "itune.exe-entry point not found" box. In the box i the goes on to read "The procedure entry point QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in dynamic link library QTCF.dll. and the box will not close untill i uninstall QuickTime Player. I when't as far as reinstalling the itune and QT Player under a new user account, still no good. Uninstall and installed countless times still can't get it to work contacted support still no good. i'm fresh out of idea's any suggestion? Any one out there with the same problem"The procedure entry point QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in dynamic link library QTCF.dll.
That one is most commonly caused by an older, misplaced copy of QTCF.dll lurking around on your system.
The first place to look for one on a 64-bit system would be in the C:\Windows\sysWOW64\ directory. Can you see a QTCF.dll in there? If so, try dragging it out onto the desktop. Are you able to launch QuickTime/iTunes now? -
DDE Server Windows: iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Windows 7 Home Premium
When I start iTunes I get this error. I click OK 4 times and iTunes starts and works OK.
DDE Server Windows: iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point QTCF_CFHTTPMessageSetHeaderFieldValue could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll.
I reinstalled iTunes 10.5.3.3 and selected the repair option. Same error.
I reinstalled QuickTime 7.7.1 (1680.42) and selected the repair option. Same error.Peculiar. I don't think iTunes versions 10.5.x need a QTCF.dll to launch. So something odd is afoot.
Can you check something for me? Do a search of your C drive for QTCF.dll. How many copies do you find, and what is their location?
On a 32-bit system, the standard location is:
C:\Program files\QuickTime\QTSystem\
On a 64-bit system, the standard location is:
C:\Program files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\
