Itunes not opening properly

for the past 2 months whenever i open my iTunes it opens, however not properly. I am able to see all of my songs in my library but the actual menu does not appear. I have tried reinstalling itunes multiple times as well as reinstalling quicktime. I have no idea what else to try please help!

Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall doesn't touch your content.
But before trying that, let's instead try updating to version 11.1.5.5 using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does that go through okay?

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

then after pressing 'OK' the following message:

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.

I 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.

I then proceeded to the "iTunes64Setup" expanded folder to load "AppleMobileDeviceSupport64"
Started the install and then received this message:

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:

Press OK and then the next message:

Any suggestions?

Itunes not Installed Properly, Repaired and no luck.

Hi. I haven't been able to create a CD for about 2 years now. I searched through these forums and found other ways of Repairing the Itunes program and have had no luck. I've repaired through downloading Itunes again, when Menu pops up, I choose to Repair ( too afraid to uninstall, and lose data). That finishes and I re-open Itunes, and still receive the same message ( Itunes not installed properly, you cannot burn/import a CD). I saw on a post on this forum about repairing it through my Windows Control Program ( Add / Remove) - did that, thought it worked out but did not. Do I need to restart my computer for changes to occur ? I also ran the itunes Diagnostics and these are my results.
Also, I see that it states I'm not the Adminstrator..... I am ?

Hello Craz4Sk8erGuy
If you uninstall iTunes, you will not lose any data if you uninstall iTunes, the iTunes database file will not be removed. Check out the article below on how to completely uninstall iTunes and its associating services. Also, I found an article for burning issues with Sony burners as well.

Hi Stephen,
What version of MS Office are you using?
Are you facing the issue similar to that mentioned here: Acrobat/Reader: Attach to Email button not working for PDFs referenced from long URLs
Open Acrobat. Use the click-path Edit - Preferences - select the Category "Email Accounts". In the dialog there is the "Add Account" drop-down. Select "Add Other". The "Add Webmail Account" dialog presents. You'll fill out the dialog's fields with Outlook.com settings. (don't forget the "Advance Settings" button)
From a look-see on the web it appears that the following are the needed settings. BUT, you'll be wanting to validate.
The Outlook.com SMTP server settings for sending outgoing messages from an email program on desktop, cell phone or mobile device are:
• Outlook.com SMTP server address: smtp.live.com
• Outlook.com SMTP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
• Outlook.com SMTP password': Your Outlook.com password
• Outlook.com SMTP port: 587
• Outlook.com SMTP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes
For incoming messages from an Outlook.com account to an email program using POP, use the Windows Live Hotmail POP3 server settings.
The Outlook.com POP server settings for downloading new incoming messages to email program, cell phone or mobile device are:
• Outlook.com POP server address: pop3.live.com
• Outlook.com POP user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
• Outlook.com POP password: Your Outlook.com password
• Outlook.com POP port: 995
• Outlook.com POP TLS/SSL encryption required: yes

"A Fix For iTUNES Not Opening"

Well, after trying to figure out what was going on with iTunes not opening at all. It turns out that by default for some reason Windows Xp Firewall disables it from opening it. iTunes however is acting like a server for the simple fact that you exchange data between your computer and iTunes Store. Since there is no option to force this connection to happen, you have to get ZoneAlarm to do so. I’m using ZoneAlarm Suite Edition, but it also works with the free Edition of ZoneAlarm. So what ZoneAlarm does is actually enables the connection between your computers data (iTunes) and iTunes servers to connect.
So first off make sure that you uninstall any Anti-Virus program so that only ZoneAlarm is installed/Running. Run ZoneAlarm and once that’s achieved you then go ahead and run iTunes. You will then be prompted twice, the first time it will prompt you about itunes.exe running as a program (Click Yes) and the second is very important since this is what enables iTunes to make a forced connection with iTunes servers (Click yes again). Once that’s done, you will see iTunes runs again. You can also uninstall ZoneAlarm and you will see that iTunes will still open even after ZoneAlarm is Uninstalled. I will see if I can make a .reg file so that you don’t have to install ZoneAlarm to make iTunes open again, but then again it wouldn’t hurt having ZoneAlarm installed since ZoneAlarm is a great tool.
Here's A direct link to the Free ZoneAlarm: http://download.zonelabs.com/bin/free/1001cnet_zdnet/zlsSetup_61_737_000en.exe
I’m sure this will work for anyone clicking the iTunes icon and getting nothing after a sec of the hour-glass disappearing and also seeing that iTunes.exe disappears in the Task Manager. So the chances of this working are high and once again since its free it wont hurt to try. Thank you again for your attention. And if anyone needs help let me know, and I would appreciated it if you can leave a reply and let me know how it turned out, weather or not iTunes opened. Thank You.-Michael R.

Just A Correction. In The Line ....The first time it will prompt you about itunes.exe running as a program (Click Yes) and the second is very important since this is what enables iTunes to make a forced connection with iTunes servers (Click yes again)...
Instead of "Click Yes" its supposed to be "Click Allow".

Help! I have an iMac 24" OSX version 10.6.8 my iphoto is having problems. It will not open properly. All I get is the little wheel going around and around. My iphoto is iphoto'11 version 9.2.3(629.52) What should I do to make it work properly?

Help! I have an iMac 24" OSX version 10.6.8. My iphoto is having problems. It will not open properly. All I get is the little wheel going around and around. My iphoto is: iphoto'11 version 9.2.3(629.52). What do I need to do to remedy this? I recently installed InstallMac. I don't want this on my computer. I don't know how to get it off. I'm afraid that is what scrogged my iphoto. Can anyone tell me how to correct this situation?

Re: iPhoto:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

My mum has an iPad 1, the email programme will not open properly. If you click on the icon it opens only for a few seconds but then shuts. In that few seconds you cant select anything that you see on screen. Any ideas? Thanks

Some Web Sites do not open properly in Safari 5.1

Hi community!
First of all let me mention that I switched from PC to Mac last week after getting bored with PCs! So please be tolerant with a newbee :-) And so far so good, the experience is fantastic! (btw I have a MacBook Pro 13.3, core i5 with Leopard and Safari 5.1). Until this issue appeared...
In Safari some Sites do not open properly. Some take ages and images do not appear (for instance www.pokerlistings.com, www.lecho.be). I browsed the various discussions to find some tips, tried a few tricks (repair permissions, close all plugins, reinstall Safari...) but nothing worked. I then tried to install the latest Firefox browser but I have exactly the same problem so I guess it has nothing to do with Safari and must be my system.
Anyone could help me here?
Thanks so much

Thanks but it's not a problem of connexion. The bulk of the sites open properly, just some do not load images or do not open properly (only text as on some mobile devices). I tried everything I found on this forum - changing user, disabling plugins, reinstall, change preferences... nothing works. Really annoying
