ITunes just installed. wont open. but no message comes up to explain. ??

i just installed itunes. when i go to open it the hourglass comes up. waits for a few secs then disappears and itunes never opens at all and no messages pop up. and also when windows shuts down a box pops up saying ending itunes.
i tried changing the itunes.bat reg that it says to do on the troubleshooting page but no luck
any ideas?

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Itunes just won't open.No error message or anything,it just simply won't open when i double click the icon.Plz help!

    As the title says
    Thanks in advance!!

    Its alright I forget some details when I post a question too, anyways.... sounds like some file has got corrupt or theres a PC glitch.
    As with many post covering simliar issues about iTunes not opening, first try uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling it.
    Also make sure your anitvirus is turned off or disabled when uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes and qicktime. Follow ALL the steps at the link below

    hi Shaun!
    after installing the update for iTunes, it doesn't run (comp makes noises but nothing comes up on screen). when i open task manager itunes is running as a process, but i can't end process.
    hmmm. okay, Norton is still our prime suspect here. that "running itunes.exe process that will not die" symptom is associated with the nastier versions of the NIS 2005 launch suppression problems. (people who get that also often see things like looooooong sloooooow shutdown times on the PCs and odd end program dialog boxes.)
    let's try throwing the trusty Lorraine M technique at the beast. (it usually fixes the nastier versions of the NIS 2005 problems.)

    If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:
    HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP
    HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    You may be required to boot into safe mode to complete the folder deletion process.

    I just install LRCC completed but can't open for use.

    We have several PC's in the union office. As a test I got on the one Mac (in fact I'm on it now). Disconnected the network cable and got to this page via the wireless connection.
    I am the computer guru for the union (but there is a network guy). This computer is connected to the same network, same password, nothing special.
    I added the iPhone MAC address to the router just this morning. I got on the first web page I went to but that was all it did all day.
    Rebooted the router twice and unplugged and reset once.

  • My keynote has frozen and wont open but the saved version wont open either. if i restart my laptop i am afraid that it will erase my work. please help me

    my keynote has frozen and wont open but the saved version wont open either. if i restart my laptop i am afraid that it will erase my work. please help me

    Try this repair for Keynote 6.2,  ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1 
    delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
    2 
    empty the trash:  Finder > Empty Trash
    3 
    Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
    When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in. 
    Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4
    when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions
    5
    when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
    6 
    install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    let us know if this helped

  • Itunes nor quicktime wont open on windows 7

    my itunes nor quicktime wont open i uninstalled and installed itunes i tried disabling bonjour i added a new users i did a virus scan i am all out of ideas i need major help

    Many thanks.
    I think we'd better see if some other application (other than QuickTime itself) has dropped old QuickTime componentry in the system files on the PC. (If there's a version mismatch between the old componentry and the "QuickTime proper" componentry, that can create those error-message-free launch failures for both iTunes and the QuickTime Player.)
    So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view options on the PC.
    1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
    2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
    3. Click the View tab.
    4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
    5. Click OK.
    Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "system32" folder.
    What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • I can not get itunes to install and open on my new laptop i am so frustrated i have uninstalled and reinstalled at least a dozen times in the last month

    Will iTunes open in safe mode? Hold down CTRL+SHIFT as, or immediately after, you click the icon that starts iTunes and keep holding until you see this prompt.
    Click Continue.
    Assuming iTunes has opened, enable the menu bar, if necessary, with CTRL+B. Then go to Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Press OK, close iTunes, wait until it has had a chance to fully close then reopen.
    Will iTunes open normally now?
    If not, see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for genral advice.
    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 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.

    Drag the Safari icon straight up and off the Dock so it goes, "poof" ...
    Now click and hold the Safari app in the Applications folder and drag that to the Dock.
    See if you can open a webpage in Safari.

    Whenever I try to open iPhoto, a message comes up saying that 148 photos have been found in the iPhoto Library that have not been imported. It asks me if I want to import them and I say NO but then it places them in a recovered photo folder. I keep deleting the empty recovered photo files but it just keeps asking me every time I go to open iPhoto! I'd love to just get rid of the "found" photos (I can't open them anyway!)
    How do I get rid of them so that I can just open iPhoto straight up without this?
    Linda

    Open your iPhoto Library package with the Finder.
    Click to view full size
    look for a folder titled Import or Importing and move it to the Desktop. Launch iPhoto to see if the message goes away.  If there is no message  check the contents of the Import folder to see if you want to keep any of those image files (usually they have not been imported into iPhoto). If you want to keep them then drag the folder into the open iPhoto window to import.

  • Installed Acrobat XI but getting message from a website that I need later version of PDF viewer to view full contents of document?

    Installed Acrobat XI but getting message from a website that I need "a later version of PDF viewer to view full contents of this document".  How to fix this?

    THe message is misleading. Save the file to your desktop, even though all you see is the message. Then, open the saved file in Reader.

  • Any ideas on how to fix ipad after the new iOS 7 update? My battery will not charge, my ipad is hot to the touch, the iTunes Store won't open, and my messages on Facebook aren't showing up when I chat and pintrest won't pin to my boards.

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • ITunes just won't open?

    i don't know what is wrong with my iTunes. i double click on the shortcut and iTunes just won't open. then i try and click on it from the start menu, and nothing again. i have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes about 3 times and still nothing changes. no error window or anything pops up even.
    can someone help me please? thank you, i would really appreciate it.

    I was having the same problem - this fixed it for me:
    Remove iTunes Preference files
    Some of the files that iTunes uses to store settings and preferences may be corrupt and cause issues. iTunes has two folders where preferences are saved. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The location for the two preference folders are:
    * C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes
    * C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes
