ITunes on 64 bit doesn't start, recognised as 32 bit program

Hi,
I use windwows 7 Professional 64 bit,
when I run itunes installer everything goes fine (except that it installs in x86 folder!) but when I try to run itunes it just doesn't start, nothing shows up and in task manager i see "itunes.exe*32" which means it is recognised as a 32bit program!!!
how can I solve this?
I also tried with itunes 8 and 9 but nothing worked

no error messages at all. ... quick time works
many thanks ... that's got one possibility with an error-message-free iTunes launch failure ruled out already.
Checking on another possibility that has been common in recent times, now.
Try (by way of experiment) disabling the BonJour Service.
In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?
If iTunes launches with the BonJour Service disabled, by any chance do you have a recent version of IOBit's Advanced SystemCare utility currently installed on the PC? If so, try uninstalling and reinstalling Advanced SystemCare. Can you launch iTunes without having to disable the BonJour Service now?

  • Itunes 7.0.1 doesn't start due to Quicktime

    I just upgraded to version 7.0.1 but itunes doesn't start stating this error:
    "Quicktime version 7.0d0 ins installed, Itunes requires Quicktime version 7.1.3 or later."
    I tried opening quicktime but it created a runtime error.
    Please help

    Oh it works now - All I had to do was open quicktime separately for it to configure itself. iTunes opens fine now.

  • Itunes 8 load but doesn't start

    Hi guys
    Well, as written in the topic, i've the following problem: when I double click the itune icon, the mouse pointer changes his shape, as if it's loading something. But after that, nothing happens.
    itune process is in the process list ( i've checked it in the task manager), so i don't think the problem is due to a crash of the application ... it's just that the the "gui" doen't show (it doesn't even appears the licence agreement that usually appears at the firt start).
    I've Windows Xp as OS, and a 2GB ram module, so no ram problems... can someone help me?

    solved following this guide: http://joeyahn.tistory.com/entry/Solution-to-Itunes-76-intallation-running-error -when-itunes76-doesnt-start-after-installation

  • ITunes 10.5.2 doesn't play music windows  64 bit

    I have a brand new i7 dell laptop running windows 7 64 bit and every time I attempt to play music iTunes freezes and I have to force quit it.
    I have tried a new clean install a couple of times and it still doesnt work.
    any ideas?

    1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?
    If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
    MSCONFIG
    Hit ENTER
    Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
    Restart Windows.
    2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Info.lib file:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
    3.  If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime.  START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REAPIR.

  • (Windows XP) iTunes doesn't start

    Hi,
    My iTunes under Windows XP doesn't start since one week: I can see it started in the taskbar like other applications, as if it were minimized, but nothing else. No error message. If I click on it, nothing happens, if only it doesn't freeze the complete PC. I can only right click > Close.
    I uninstalled all iTunes, then installed it again, and it still didn't work.
    I downloaded iTunes latest version again to be sure. Still the same.
    I looked for solutions over the web, but with no error message it looks difficult to find a case like mine.
    Any idea someone?

    Both are referencing cooltype.dll. I ran Font Doctor on all system and non-system fonts and found no errors. Booted without Extensis Suitcase loading. Nothing works. All 32 bit programs work fine. Any clues would be appreciated.

    It does not necessarily mean a "corrupt" font, but can be a font that PrPro, and PS, cannot handle.
    Though I have read that changes have been made, Open Office's DejaVu font would crash PrPro's Titler - every time. There are quite a few others. Font Dr, and similar utilities, will not see the font(s) as corrupt, but they are so poorly designed, that PrPro and PS cannot deal with them.
    Though it can be a long, drawn out process, one can often zero in on the problem font(s), with a little work. This is accomplished by first defining the "System Fonts," and not touching them. Then, uninstall half of the remaining fonts, and testing PrPro and PS. If they launch fine, you know that somewhere in that list of fonts, the problem exists. If there is still a failure to launch, chances are good that the problem font(s) reside in that half, that are still installed. Note: because the problem still exists, does not guarantee that there are NOT problem fonts in that uninstalled group, so keep that in mind.
    Repeat the proces, by uninstalling half of the remaining fonts and testing.
    If necessary, repeat by removing half of the now remaining fonts and testing.
    When you get to a point, where you are no longer getting problems, reinstall fonts, in small groups, testing in between. The smaller the groups, the easier it will be to pinpoint the problem font(s).
    Keep notes on which fonts you are uninstalling and reinstalling, until you narrow it down to the problem font(s).
    I would start by uninstalling any "free fonts," and then commercial, 3rd party fonts. A lot of free fonts are just poorly designed, and can cause issues, though they might work fine in some other programs.
    I use a font manager, so that I only have ~ 350 fonts installed at one time, and then dynamically install fonts, as needed for Projects. That keeps my machine clean, and if, upon installation, I get a crash/hang, I know that at least one font in that Set is causing it. This helps, as my workstation has ~ 19,000 fonts on it, and some are free fonts, and many are from 3rd parties. Some are also very, very old.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - one common cause for hangs on loading PrPro can be from VST's, used in Audio-editing. If you also have a lot of VST's, you could have two issues with two separate programs, i..e. PS hanging on fonts, and PrPro hanging on VST's. The results would be the same, but the causes could be different. That leads to even more work. For PrPro, also see this ARTICLE. If you get PS launching, but PrPro is still not functioning, drop by the PrPro Forum, and someone can help you there.

  • Exporting to iTunes: track doesn't start at the beginning

    Hi'all
    This isn't a specific GB'08 question...I have exported a number of podcasts to iTunes and downloaded them onto my Shuffle. Annoyingly, they tend not to begin at the start of the track, but rather, a few seconds in. It is possible to rewind to the beginning of the track, so it is all there, but I can't encourage the tracks to begin there!
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Many thanks

    One trick is to move the entire podcast/song over a measure or two, so it doesn't start on the downbeat of measure 1, but the downbeat of measure 2.
    Command A to select all tracks, and then slide everything over one measure to the right so measure 2 is the new "measure 1."
    That way, if a bit of measure 1 disappears, it won't effect your audio since it'll be part of the empty measure before your content begins in measure 2.

  • Ipod suffle 3g recognized by iTunes but doesn't start! (water damage)

    My ipod shuffle 3G has a water damage. it shows the red/pink indicator.
    It doesn't starts but it connects to iTunes. I can move songs to my iPod shuffle and other stuffs. But it doesn't start.
    I have opened my iPod shuffle. It had green sedimentation in it. I cleaned it but it still doesn't start and is still recognized by iTunes.
    Does anybody have an idea what the reason could be?

    If it doesn't power on when you try to use it, the damage may be to the battery.  When it's connected, it is getting power from the USB connection, so it works.  When you disconnected, the battery does not hold a charge, so it is dead.
    Since you know how to open it, you may want to try leaving it open in a dry ventilated place for a few days.  If the cause is moisture shorting something out, when the moisture evaporates, it may work again.

  • Windows 7 64-bit 8GB RAM doesn't start after installing X-Fi drivers

    I have Windows 7 64 bit, 8GB RAM for a few months. After inserting an X-Fi Platinum Fatalty Champion Series (S/N MASB046A83R0772D; OP BN 06SB046A00005 Rev A) and installing Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi series driver 2.8.003 dated 26 Jun 09. The sounds plays OK, but after rebooting Windows doesn't start, with a CorruptRegistry error. I have installed Windows from scratch, but it only works until I install the X-Fi driver and reboot. Please help. I have searched the internet and found no solution to my problem besides a Wikipedia article that X-Fi has problem with 64-bit Vista with 4GB RAM or more.

    Hi, I am also running windows 7 ultimate 64 with the same sound card and am using the july 5 driver. It works but i cant use the creative control panel as i get a black screen on start-up and when i uninstall the contol panel windows functions normally. I may have to go with the onboard sound to get all 4 speakers to work. I have 6 Gb of ram on a gigabyte X58 Mobo.
