ITunes no longer works on Windows 8.1

iTunes has stopped working on Windows 8.1. I deleted iTunes and I'm able to intall the new version, but it crashes each time on loading. Is there a work around that is effective?

Refer to the first box on on this page: Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates That should resolve this issue.

  • Itunes no longer works on windows 7 pc

    I have uninstalled all apple products and reinstalled.  I lost outlook 2007 as well.  I have been able to upgrade to outlook 2010 to get out look back but still can not get itunes to work on this PC.  I have tried the removal of items from the registry as recomended at a web site.  uninstalled and reinstalled.  Started in safe mode and tried to load itunes and still will not open.

    There is no message.  The windows hour glass starts to revolve and then nothing.
    Can you check something for me please?
    Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
    Now try to launch iTunes.
    Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

  • ITunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system.  Get error msg saying C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114..

    iTunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system.  Get error msg saying an application is attempting to access C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114.  Same msg, or one that says unable to install, when trying to update or reinstall iTunes.  iTunes worked well up until about a month ago when this error msg starting appearing.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • The shuffle button in itunes no longer works

    the shuffle button in itunes no longer works. it used to work fine.

    That's weird.
    Here are some random thoughts, sorry if they're not too awesome.
    * Do you get the Manage Widgets window with no list in it? OR not even the window?
    * How long do you wait for your list to pop up? On my (admittedly ancient)
    powerbook, it may take a few seconds the first time I try it.
    * You might consider looking at the Console log messages (set to "All messages") to see if
    there are any error messages being generated when you ask to "Manage Widgets".
    * You might try removing all your widgets manually via the ~/Library/Widgets folder. This
    could be a workaround, I guess, too. But my thought is maybe there is a bad widget in there which is somehow clogging up the Manage Widgets thing.

  • Since last update on Mavericks, the picture attachement to a movie in iTunes no longer works. Any idea ?

    Since last update on Mavericks, the picture attachement to a movie in iTunes no longer works. Any idea ?
    Picture added is not displayed in the finder ; when transfering the movie to an Ipad, it is not displayed either.
    iMac 27', Mavericks 10.9 + iTunes 11.1.2

    Working here just fine. Try reinstalling:
    Reinstalling Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    My old computer with itunes no longer works.  If I hook my ipod to my new computer will I lose the songs that are on it now?

    Yes, you will.
    Do you have the songs still?
    You could add them to your new library if you do.

  • HT204368 after downloading ios7, iTunes no longer works through my blue tooth (car)- but other programs (pandora) work just fine

    After downloading ios 7.02, iTunes no longer works through my blue tooth (car), but other music apps work fine.  iTunes and iTunes radio work fine though headset and on speaker, but won't work through bluetooth.
    Anything that can be changed in 'settings' or with my iTunes so I can use it through my blue tooth?

    Hi, milljam7. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Sometimes closing all applications open in multitasking and power cycling the device can resolve the issue.

  • Everytime I open itunes I get a message saying itunes has stopped working and windows is looking for a solution

    Everytime I open itunes I get a message saying itunes has stopped working and windows is looking for a solution

    I have the same issue. An iTunes help page (iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues - Apple Support) suggested I hold down shift and control when clicking to open iTunes, which opens iTunes fine for me. That would mean the problem is in the third party plug-ins that work with iTunes. However, the help pages did not say what to do with the plug-ins once I knew that was the issue. The pages said to find the plug-ins and move them to the Desktop, which I did. That's where the help pages stopped, which is ridiculous. Does anyone know what to do from there?
