  • Itunes 8.2 won't open and gives weird message

    I tried downloading iTunes 8.2... it seems to download fine but when I select to open iTunes after it is finished installing, it gives me this message (that I can't read!!!):
    http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/3920/zz25.jpg
    When I try to open iTunes it won't and that message always appears.
    It might be because when I had the older version of iTunes it was in a different language... but now I can't change it or read it. When I install 8.2 the agreement also shows up in boxes.

    Hey,
    Here are the steps that should help:
    1. Close all applications.
    2. Go into the Finder>Home>Library>Preferences
    3. Delete 'com.apple.iDVD.plist' and 'com.apple.iTunes.plist'
    4. Restart Immediatley.
    This should work. Cheers, Ricky.

  • TS3297 When I go to the iTunes store, all I get is a black screen. No error message, just won't open. I have tried going to iTunes on another device and it works fine.  Help!

    When I go to the iTunes store, it won't open.  I don't receive an error message of any kind, just a blank black screen.  I have tried to access the store on other devices in my home and it works.  All my music shows up in my library, but nothing will show up when I go to the actual store.  I have updated my software and made sure the date/time are correct.  Everything else seems to be working fine on my computer.  Not sure what is going on, but would really appreciate any help you can give. Thanks!

    I'm expreriencing the same conditions with the same environment.  Windows 8, iTunes-64 11.1.2.32, iTunes Store with a processing bar up to 80 +/- and the POPUP MESSAGE OF "iTunes stopped working. The error ...."
    I UNINSTALLED, iTUNES WITH NO POSITIVE RESULT.  I CHECKED THE FIREWALL AND IS THE SAME DEFINITION AS THE PREVIOUS ITUNES VERSION.
    My iTunes StoreS from my iPhones ARE OK.
    I'm spending a lot of time of research for WINDOW'S iTUNE with no solutions.... 

  • ITunes 11.3 won't open

    iTunes 11.3 won't open on 13" Mac Macbook Pro mid 2012  OS X 0.8.2

    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, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or 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.

  • Safari, iMail, iTunes, and Dashboard won't open

    A week ago, Safari, iMail, iTunes, and Dashboard won't open but other applications will, like Mozilla, iPhoto, Word, Excel, etc. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get Safari and the other programs to open? Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hi, I'm replying to myself to add more information on my case. I wasted half my day yesterday trying to fix this, looking into forums and trying to talk to people about it and there it absolutely no answer. Yesterday I installed the programs necessary to sync my phone in my wife's macbook and nothing bad happened. So I'm guessing it isn't about the phone plugins I installed. I've tried to download combo updates but they crash as soon as I try to install them - I even tried to install a 10.4.10 update.
    This is the error message I get:

    I put part of in on google to check if there was anybody discussing anything related and someone suggested - bizarrely enough - updating adobe reader. I did it just in case and, of course, it didn't work. I repaired permissions a million times already, I rebooted in safe mode, I scaned the computer with apple jack, I verified the disk with diskutility - which showed nothing. I tried downloading an anti-virus (ClamXav), but I couldn't open it also, I trashed my prefs, I deleted all internet plugins, but still.... nothing. I'm about to quit and take it to the very expensive - yet reliable - authorized tech support apple has in Rio. Any ideas, anyone?

  • After a recovery reinstall of 10.8.5, using Safari 6.0.3, I get the message "Safari won't open because of a problem"

    After a recovery reinstall of 10.8.5 and using Safari 6.0.3, I get the message "Safari won't open because of a problem"
    I'm not sure if this Safari is compatible. I also have Safari 7.0.4 in my applications folder, which i downloaded as an attempt to
    solve the problem, but it isn't compatible with my system.

    Having two copies of Safari on the hard drive is what's keeping Safari from opening.
    Move the 7.0.4 version to the Trash.
    Then restart your Mac and try Safari.
    Safari 7.0.4 won't run on Mountain Lion. Only v10.9 Mavericks.

  • ITunes 10.7 won't open some Libraries

    I just noticed that iTunes (10.7) won't open some of my libraries. I have 5 that I use for various purposes. The main one with all my music is now grayed out. Only 2 out of the 5 will load, and they are not the most important ones, so I am kind of stuck.
    A few weeks ago I upgraded from Leopard 10.5 to Mountain Lion 10.8, then got an iPhone 5, but iTunes worked for a while after the upgrade and I put some songs on the iPhone.
    I just got the fix for iPhoto 4.9 which was causing it's own problems, and now iTunes isn't working. (Actually it wasn't working when iPhoto had problems too.)
    So what can I do to fix this? Delete my library files and start over just when I had it all set up for the iPhone? And will it happen again?

    A valid iTunes library has a file called library.itl  The .xml file is a copy in a different format put there by iTunes so other programs can read the library, but itunes itself uses the .itl file.  So in essence the folders with no .itl have no library.  You can create a blank library by holding down the option key while starting iTunes.  Now import the .xml file from one of those orphan libraries.

    My messages app won't open, after I sent a large iMessage. I think it just has too much data on it. What can I do other then reset my iPhone?

    Hi everyone, I had this problem but none of the solutions above worked. What happened with me, and with others in other forums, is that a particular thread or message was causing the problem. I'd go to open the message and all I'd get was a white screen with the blue bar at the top. So, I went into contacts, pressed 'send message' to a contact whose message wasn't causing the problem, then I pressed back to messages. You then swipe to the left on the thread that's causing the problem, and delete it. Sadly this means you will lose all that person's messages, but you can try opening it from there and deleting it on the thread. Didn't work for me though. Hope that helps! It was the only thing that worked for me after about three days of total frustration and resetting!

    Are you trying to transfer the GarageBand projects or the rendered audio files? What version of GarageBand do you have on your iPhone?
    I do not think you can share your GarageBand projects from your iPhone to GarageBand on your Mac, unless you have iCloud, afaik, only the audio files.
    How did you transfer the song?
    To share from an IOS device the Projects or audio files, see:  Share GarageBand songs

    FaceTime & Messages now won't open on my iPad. Now no toggle switch in settings. Log in with my Apple ID sends activation error message 'try again'. Both Apps work on my iPhone & Mac.Any help?

    Adjusting the date or time didn't do anything for me either. I'm guessing my two options are to either do the full restore from scratch and not apply any backup ... Or possibly wait for an iOS update that might resolve this issue.
    I'm not that much of an avid twitter user that I need it implemented natively in all my devices - so for now I'll probably value all my game save data, internal settings in apps e.t.c. over that functionality (or over the amount of work it would be to get me back to where I am now after a full wipe). I'll see what happens after the next iOS delta update. I'll reevaluate the full wipe after that if the issue hasn't been resolved

  • ITUNES WON'T OPEN AND GIVES AN ERROR MESSAGE HELP

    my iTunes won't open, and instead pops up a window saying:
    "The iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occured (-200)."
    Something similar to this is happening with my mac DVD player. When I try to open that, it won't open and says:
    "There was an initialization error. The audio output device could not be found. Please make sure speakers or an appropriate output device is connected. [-70027]"
    doesn't come in to handy when you are about to watch a new episode of Lost .
    anyway, I saw the speaker thing and went online. Any sound online (music, popups) can all make sounds - so my computer isnt permanetly muted. I've also restarted my computer, done the system updates, and gone into system prefereces to mess around with the volume. The computer recognizes the internal speakers. HELP!

    Hey,
    Here are the steps that should help:
    1. Close all applications.
    2. Go into the Finder>Home>Library>Preferences
    3. Delete 'com.apple.iDVD.plist' and 'com.apple.iTunes.plist'
    4. Restart Immediatley.
    This should work. Cheers, Ricky.

  • ITunes 10.5.2 installs fine, but won't open.  Gives locked disc/permissions error.  Any ideas?

    I get the following error message when trying to open iTunes 10.5.2 for the first time:  "The folder "iTunes" is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder."  I'm running windows 7 and have tried everything I can think of, including uninstall/reinstall, allowing all users full control, creating a new user account and everything on the support page for this problem (hidden file deletion, virus checks, opening in safe mode, etc.)  Never had a problem like this before.  Very frustrated and confused - please help if you can.  Thanks for looking.

    I have fixed the issue
    The steps I used were
    1. restore ATV under //settings/general/restore
    2. log out then in with apple id //setting/computers/turn off-on
    3. unplug router for 30 sec
    4. restart macbook with no windows being kept open
    5. when macbook restarts open iTunes
    6. log out then onto home sharing under advanced tab
    7. make sure sharing is enable under //iTunes/preferences/sharing/ then click share my library on local network
    8. it should work after this point and come up in ATV
    ///side note the sharing tab on iTunes won't show up in the sidebar of iTunes not certain if it's suppose to///

  • Itunes and safari won't open

    My itunes stopped working after I came back from vacation. I tried uninstalling everything and updating to 10.1 but it won't open. When I click it, it shows up in the task manager for a moment and then disappears with no error messages. Quicktime works fine but when I downloaded and installed safari it won't open either.
    Then I created another user account and tried it there and it doesn't work. It also looks like the plugin for adobe acrobat has stopped working as well. I have to right click and save as to view pdfs. I tried disabling the bonjour service and restarting the computer but it still doesn't work.
    Any ideas? I have windows 7 x64 professional
    Thanks

    Still having the same problem I'm getting a distnoted.exe *32 that pops up in the taskmanager for a short time after trying to open it. I did get this after creating another user account: Itunes has stopped working
