ITUNES NOT WORKING! IM LOSING CONTROL!

I really need help with this. okay ever since like a month ago our iTunes hasn't been working. When you click on the icon for iTunes it says:
iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. Sorry for the inconvenience. Then it says to tell Microsoft about this problem. So i keep pressing send error report each time it comes on and it hasn't benn working! I have ran virus scans and uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime and reinstalled both of them! NOTHING IS WORKING! Please help!!!!!
Much thanks,
Lianna

First, I presume that your profile is incorrect and that you're not really running Windows 98. It would help if you'll correct your profile to correct reflect your system configuration.
Anyway, the first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevent it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
If that doesn't cure the problem, make sure that any antivirus/antispyware application you have is set to allow iTunes to operate. Some antivirus/antispyware has been known to shut down iTunes.
If that still doesn't help, take a look at iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch failures
If that still doesn't work, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
and
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them or if you want to be able to put them back if it doesn't help, drag them to some other location. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistant the next time you launch iTunes. Note that you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
If that still doesn't work, try this:
Bugie: Perform a Thorough & Complete Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes/QuickTime.
Hope this helps.

    the version 11.1.4 of iTunes not working good because it's not recognizing my iPhone and I can't do anything.

    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 press on)
    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.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

    I had problems uninstalling Apple Mobile Support, I had to repair it first before I could uninstall it. You will have to restart the computer after all the uninstalls, and before reinstalling ITunes. I reinstalled ITunes from the Apple website afterwards (fresh download) ... everything works for me now that I have done this.

  • Work around for iTunes not working with shuttle

    Well, I have found a work around for the iTunes not working the the Shuttle. It is not pretty, and many of you may not choose to follow my lead. This procedure has a lot of dumb steps in it, but in the end, one can copy data/songs to a Shuttle.
    It involves removing the current iTunes and replacing it with a version that also had a bug in it.( I told you it ain't pretty).
    Procedure:
    1. Go to this url: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipod_itunes/itunes802forwindows.html
    2. Download the old 8.0 version of iTunes for Windows.
    3. Remove the current iTunes from your computer. Note after you run the remove utility in Windows, you need to delete the iTune library that isn't removed.
    4. Install iTunes 8.0
    Here is where it gets dumb.
    This version of iTunes has a bug with the USB interface, but there is an easy work around.
    5. Make sure the Shuttle is not connected when you launch iTunes.
    6. After iTunes comeup, attach the Shuttle.
    7. iTunes should see your Shuttle.
    8. Select the music you want to upload, and drag it to the Shuttle.
    9. iTunes will just sit there, so you need to get its attention. To get its attention you must disconnect and reconnect one of your USB devices, just not the Shuttle. Some folks do their mouse, one used a USB drive, and another on used is GPS because he was working from a laptop and did not have a mouse.
    10. In a few moments, iTunes will do its thing and copy your data to the Shuttle. You must do this routine for each copy, so if you develop a Play List, you only have to do step 9 once.
    The getting the old copy of iTunes was my idea, but a gentleman from a year ago figured out the mouse step.
    I am now a happy camper, my Shuttle is full of music again.
    However, I hope Apple finds a fix for the 8.2 problem soon.
    Take care all.

    I stand corrected on the name. By the time I figured out how to copy the songs I had a few other names in mind.
    One of the first things I tried was the Reset utility. After the iTunes restore did not work, I went looking for something else. After using the utility, I connected the iPod and resynced. I had left the Autofill box checked. iTunes autofilled the iPod. I deleted those songs and tried to put a different play list in. It would not copy the songs, iTunes said there was no room even though the play list for the shuffle was empty. I looked at the settings screen and it said the iPod was full. I synced the iPod to my Mac, and that got rid of the "full" indication. That is when I started looking for an older version of iTunes, unfortunately all I could find is a version with the USB bug.

  • ITunes Not Working [at all..;need help!; very detailed.]

    Hello.
    My iTunes doesnt work at all. When I click on iTunes, it doesnt open or anything. I have uninstalled it and then re-installed it many times, it didnt work. Because of my iTunes not working, i had no choice but to put my songs on manually using Rockbox [an alternative fw]..
    And now i really need help, cause it is really annoying to put my songs on manually!
    Help?
    BTW i have norton installed, is that why it may not be working?
    --Aaron R.

    FYI, there's an iTunes forum where you may have
    better luck. You can try posting over there
    Anyway, I'm not really sure. Does it show up in the
    task manager? Is there an iTuneshelper.exe process?
    Tom
    yeah, there is an itunes helper.exe process.
    well, im going to post it in the itunes forum.look for it over there.

  • Itunes not working when i plug ipod in

    I have resetted a ipod classic to the original settings and it will not connect to itunes on my windows 7 computer. A message comes up that says itunes not working and closes it down. What do I need to do to get it back and running so I can put music on it?

    i believe you are using an apple device for the first time
    once you connect your device to the computer, on the left handside in centre of itunes your device will appear
    if you dont know how to add songs and other stuff, just look for it on youtube which will be easy to follow

  • IN USING IPAD, ITUNES NOT WORKING ON IPAD 3?

    ITUNES NOT WORKING ON IPAD 3?

    What exactly is the problem?
    The iTunes App on your iPad is a portal to the iTunes Store for music and videos.  It needs a connection to the internet (either WiFi or cellular) to work.
    To play music on your iPad, use the Music App.  To play videos on your iPad, use the Videos App.
    If you need help using your iPad, look at the iPad iOS 5.1 User Guide

    Navigation of iPhoto and iTunes not possible by Remote Control after upgrading from Leo to Mountain Lion. I miss this functionality because it was nice to see may photoes directly on the iMac-Screen as well to hear the Music on my Radio. No chance to implement this function again by a newer upgrade?

    I am using already AppleTV, but only for streaming into a different room on to my TV - it is great!
    But I like to hear all my iTunes Music by LineOut Cable from iMac to my Stereo Device.
    I can activate music titles in iTunes by Apple Remote, but only for jumping from Title to Title and not back to Albums or Playlists etc.

    See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The issue seems similar to that in the first box though it would be nice to have the complete error message. Tearing out all iTunes components and reinstalling as given in the second box should resolve.
