  • After installing the OS 10.10.3 update iTunes will not open.  Re-downloading iTunes and re-installing did not help.

    After downloading and installing OS 10.10.3 iTunes will not open.  Spotlight does not find it.  I have repaired permissions, re-downloaded iTunes, and re-installed it.  The problem remains.  ITunes appears in the directory of Applications, the update shown in the info in Finder.  Double clicking does not open it.

  • ITunes do not open after OX 10.10.3 update

    AFter updating to OSX 10.10.3, my iTunes do not open On my Mac Mini. I also updated my MacPro and MacBook Pro to 10.10.3 and they are working perfectely. The iTunes opens flawlessly, the problem is just with my MacMini. I tried downloading iTunes from Apple and re-installing but no success. Tried Disk Utility (repairing permissions) and again... No... The icon did not even bounce...
    what should I do??

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • ITunes will not open after update to 11.4

    I updated iTunes, along with the other updates I was prompted to install but now my iTunes will not open. At all. No error message or anything. Please someone help?
    Thanks.

    Hi Cchoe,
    I see that you are experiencing an issue with iTunes after an update. It sounds like this issue could be related to third-party software interactions with iTunes. Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203395
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • ITunes will not open after updating

    Ever since the update to 7.1.1 iTunes will not open.
    I get a pop-up window that says iTunes has stopped working.
    I have followed Apple's instructions for Vista about uninstalling all Apple products. I have done this 8+ times and I am at a total loss. I am a webmaster and Sr. Sys. Admin for a software company, so it's not like I don't have experience with computer/software issues.
    When I look at the Windows application log. I have this error:
    Faulting application iTunes.exe, version 7.7.1.11, time stamp
    0x4890a5ee, faulting module kernel32.dll, version 6.0.6001.18000, time
    stamp 0x4791a76d, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x000254d8,
    process id 0xf44, application start time 0x01c8fb2e587a39a9.
    This started happening after I updated.
    No other issues with any other programs. Quicktime will start up and run.

    I hear you. My itunes is fubared and Apple and ALL the articles they send do NO good. I have emailed Apple many times and nothing helps.
    Whatever they changed with version 7.1 messed up itunes and you can't go back.
    I have emailed Apple asking them if I can delete my itunes directory and any references to itunes and NOT lose my 10K songs. They havent responded to that email and my guess is that it will delete it. But Im not going to risk losing my library until I know for sure !
    Im in the same boat you are, I dont want to lose my library either. APPLE NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND NOW !!
    anyway this is a pain in the *** but itunes(windows) will open this way
    UNTIL APPLE FIXES THIS !
    1.boot up windows
    2.right click on your START button
    3.go to C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer\iTunes (my machine is a Dell with Vista)
    4.go to the itunes directory C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC INFO
    5.delete BOTH files SC info.sidb AND SC info.sibb
    6.launch itunes, it should open, mine did.
    7. if you have any purchased songs from the istore, log-in with your user name/password.
    THIS WORKED FOR ME BUT YOU HAVE TO LEAVE YOUR ITUNES OPEN, IF YOU CLOSE IT OUT, YOU WILL HAVE TO REPEAT THE PROCESS AGAIN. (at least I did)
    GOOD LUCK !!

    This goes on and on through different modules concerning .dll files but nowhere did is see an error code, this whole thing might be the code but I wouldnt know, the data is very very long. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well as the utility cleanup but nothing works.
    Thank you for any and all help!

    Many thanks.

    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 will not open after uninstall and re-download, I only get a message itunes match accessing itunes store which goes on for a long time

    I could not open I-tunes.  I had used it a week before but it was spotty and then eventually it would not open at all.   I uninstalled it then downloaded it.  I restarted the computer.  When I tried to open itunes, I got a message "ITunes match. Accessing iTunes store" and it does not go beyond that.  I've tried this process twice.  I had my Norton support service do a tuneup and they downloaded iTunes but it will still not work. help!

  • Itunes will not open after download, itunes will not open after download

    I downloaded the recent update for itunes 10. It crashed my computer and my computer went into safe mode and i said yes to delete itunes.
    I downloaded itunes again and it will now not work. The download goes through perfect and i have repaired it more times than i can count.
    Still the same window pops up saying, "the itunes library .itl cannot be found or created. The default location for the file is in the "itunes" folder in the "music" folder." What do i do?

    Still the same window pops up saying, "the itunes library .itl cannot be found or created. The default location for the file is in the "itunes" folder in the "music" folder." What do i do?
    Try holding down the shift key as you open iTunes. You should see a dialog, as per the following screenshot:
    Click "Choose Library".
    In "Music" open the "iTunes" folder and select the iTunes Library.itl file as per the following screenshot:
    .. and click the "Open" button.
    Does your iTunes launch now?
    (If so, you should be able to launch normally from now on out. By default, iTunes opens the last open library file when you launch it normally.)

  • TS3540 ITunes will not open after re-install

    I followed the instructions from this article after trying to sync iTunes with iPhone5.  I finished the second set  of steps downloading http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
    After restarting a couple of times, it still will not open.  The icon in the Dock has a question mark superinposed on it.
    Now what do I do?  All of this just to get message groups/email lists to be on the new phone.  Yikes!

    Well, after reading more posts and not getting any answers here, I kept fidgeting and discovered that while the Dock iTunes icon did not work, going through the App folder and then adding the icon to the Dock did work.  The iPhone5 did sync while plugged into power - not having to be directly connected to the iMac.  So far so good.  Still figuring out how to get the groups to show up.

  • ITunes will not open after (12) update!!!!!!!

    Just updated iTunes to (12) and now it will not open. Two messages. The procedure entry point ADAdPolicyEngine_DidEnterStation could not be located in the dynamic link library iAdCore.dll. and then iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 127)

    Win XP SP3 32bit

    i had almost same issue on Windows RT 8.1
    i tried to uninstall and reintsall as apple says THOUSAND TIMES but, did not work at all !
    i sorted out myself issues they are ,
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple folder &
    C:\ProgramData\Apple &
    C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer    cannot be deleted
    thats why i recieved "Error 7 (Windows Error XXX)" even though apple says its because netframework or Corrupt download or incomplete installation of iTunes software
    so i moved undeletable folders with all subfolders to desktop and run installation of  itunes12.0.1.26
    all solved my problems of installing itunes, now i have to find a way to delete the files on the desktop .

  • Itunes will not open after upgrade

    After upgrading to the latest version of itunes and quicktime it will not open (no error message given). If i log off as administrator and log on as another user it will open. is there a fix for this?

    there's a few different things that can cause that on a PC.
    perhaps try working through the user-account-specific section of the following document first:

  • Itunes will not open after upgrading to 9

    I cannot run itunes 9 on XP
    Everything worked fine untill version 9 was released. At that point I reinstalled version 8 and everything was working.
    Last week I bought an ipad and it forced me to upgrade to the latest version.
    I opened after installing but once I rebooted Itunes no longer opens.
    Itunes does not apear under applications in Windows task manager
    under processes I see:
    Itunes.exe
    Ituneshelper.exe
    Applemobiledeviceservice
    Ipodservice.exe
    If I try to open Itunes again a second copy of Itunes.exe apperes in processes.
    Itunes.9.2.0.61
    Apple application 1.3.0
    Apple mobile device support 3.1.0.62
    Apple software update 2.1.1.116
    Running microsoft xp home edition 2002 Service pack 3

    Norton security suite 4.2.0.12
    That's the one that Comcast distributes?
    If so, I'd check the firewall rules for your iTunes in the Norton suite first. (Norton generally has to update a rule for iTunes when your iTunes version is upgraded, so it's a prime time for something to go wrong with your rule for iTunes.)
    End any running iTunes.exe processes, and then check to see if you currently have an iTunes rule in the firewall.
    If you don't have an iTunes rule at all, create one allowing full access to the internet.
    If you have an iTunes rule that doesn't allow full access to the internet, edit the rule to allow access to the internet.
    If you have an iTunes rule that does allow full access to the internet, delete it and create a new rule for iTunes (allowing full access to the internet).
    Restart the PC and then try another iTunes launch. Does it launch correctly this time?

  • Itunes will not open after installing yosemite

    I installed Yosemite and have tried to repeatedly. Get my new Itunes 12 to open but it refuses. It will not make any indication that it is attempting to open. I have tried to reinstall it a number of times and it still will not open.
    any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    I've encountered the exact same problem.
    iTunes wouldn't start up at all, even tough it had the correct version.
    By browsing to the applications contents and running the itunes exec it would work.
    Also running it through Terminal would work. But simply not by clicking the iTunes.app
    However i've fixed it! by manually setting read and write so that you can delete the iTunes.app. (for a tut see http://www.tekrevue.com/tip/uninstall-itunes/)
    Then manually Install iTunes again by downloading it at http://www.apple.com/nl/itunes/download/
    Then it worked fine with me! Hope it helps.
