Problom opening iTunes; .itl file in use?

Hi,
I recently transferred my itunes collection to an external NAS drive, and manually transferred all of the library information files to the same directory. This worked fine for the past week, although saving library data has been a bit slow.
Today when I tried to open itunes, it said the library could not be located. When I directed itunes to the .itf file (last updated earlier today) it says:
"iTunes Library
This file is crrently in use
Enter a new name or close the file that is open in another program"
Any suggestions as to how to fix this problem and get my iTunes running smoothly again??
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks
Paul

Update: I noticed that EVERYTHING in my hd was corrupted, disconnected and reconnected it and it was fine...Sadly my xml files had all been deleted. What course of action should I take in refilling my itunes? All my music, most of my videos and such are on my ipod..

ITunes 9.0.2.25 doesnt work on Windows 7 64-Bit!!! Have looked everywhere!!

I first started to install iTunes 64-bit and the installation seemed to work well, but when i plugged in my iPod Touch this message showed up:
"This iPod 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."
Well of cource ive tried to uninstall and re-install without any luck. I also uninstalled everything that had something to do with apple (quicktime etc.) and went into registry editor and removed apples entries there under SOFTWARE, without luck.
Then I extracted the iTunes installer, and got all of the .msi files.
I cannot install "Apple Mobile Device Support 64", it seemes that it gets installed but it doesnt. No files are copied to the common folder, and I've checked both (Program Files and Program Files (x86))
I cannot install MobileMe because it tells med that "Apple Mobile Device Support 64" is not installed. I have also tried to extract the msi files wiht Universal Extractor and coppied all of the files.
I have also tried to install the driver manually but it tells me its not an x64-driver when I KNOW it is (the files are. usbaapl64.sys, usbaapl64.inf, usbaapl64.cat and usbaaplrc.dll) I manage to finally get "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" installed but get the error that "This device cannot start (Code 10)"
I tried to select the iPod USB Driver but it still says "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" even when i open the driver and under the tab (Details) it says: Apple iPod USB Driver" but it cannot start.
Please help!! I need to fix this. Im loosing my mind now.
Thanks

Listen up, I have no found and article on how to fix this problom. This seems to be a common problem with iTunes on Windows 7 64-bit, so this is a fix you can use until Apple fixes this problem.
Since this article is from November 10th 2008, which is a very long time ago, it seems like Apple is ignoring this huge problem, but there is always away around but it might be a little complicated.
First uninstall everything that has anything to do with Apple (iTunes, Quicktime, Bonjour, Apple Update Software, Apple Mobile Device Support (if installed) etc etc. Then delete all Apple folders in Program Files (x86), also check the
Program Files folder too.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple
also check the : C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple just in case.
Now check for anything that has to do with apple (like "Apple Software Updater", "iTunes", "Bonjour", "QuickTime" etc in both of the Program Files directories and delete them.
Now delete:
C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Local\Apple
C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Local\Apple Computer
C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer
C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer
Then open the start-menu, write "Run" (without the quotes) and click enter. Write inn "regedit" (without quoutes)
Goto: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE and delete "Apple Computer, Inc." and anything related to Apple, then go into HKEYCURRENTUSER\SOFTWARE and delete "Apple Computer, Inc." and anything realted to Apple.
Then Restart your computer.
Now follow this guide:
http://chris123nt.com/2008/11/10/get-ipod-touch-working-in-windows-7-x64/
But make sure of 2 things:
1. You have to edit one of the .reg files in the iTouchReg.zip that you are gonna download from the guide.
2. You dont need to install itunes on a working Vista 64-bit computer, you can do an easier way.
First lets take the easier way to get the Apple Mobile Device Support files.
As the guide sais, you have to download the latest version of 64-bit iTunes.
When you have downloaded it, download and install WinRar (if you dont have it, www.rarlabs.org)
Extract the .msi files from the iTunes installation to a seperate folder.
Now you need to download and install Universal Extractor.
HERE: http://legroom.net/software/uniextract
Extract the files from the file: "AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi" to a seperate folder. There you will have the "Common Files" folder and you will find the folder "Apple" inside it that you need to copy to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common
Files", and inside that folder is also the drivers that is explained in the guide. So then you dont need another computer, and you will get the latest version of the files.
No the second thing you need to do, since the guide is pretty old, and iTunes has updated their iTunes alot of times (but still haven't fixed this problem), then you have to change the version in the AMDS.reg file.
In the zip. file called iTouchReg.zip that you will download from the guide has 2 files.
You will get 2 files:
AMDS.reg
and Service.reg
open up AMDS.reg in notepad and edit the versions of 2 files.
It will look like this:
[HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apple Inc.\Apple Mobile Device Support]
"InstallDir"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Common Files\\Apple\\Mobile Device Support\\"
"Version"="2.1.1.13"
I edited it to:
[HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Apple Inc.\Apple Mobile Device Support]
"InstallDir"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Common Files\\Apple\\Mobile Device Support\\"
"Version"="2.6.0.32"
(You have to change it to the latest version that comes with iTunes, just right-click on the "AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi" that you extracted from the iTunes installation with winrar, and click properties. Check the Details tab and
under Description, you will se "Comment" there and the latest version will be there. Edit the .reg file to that version, in my case it was 2.6.0.32.)
Now you need to check the Bonjour application, the FileVersion is the versio of the "Bonjour64.msi" that you extracted from the iTunes installation file with Winrar (using the same method as with the "AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi"),
the "Version" is the version of the exe file of the Bonjour exe is located, normally in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bonjour\" in the details tab. Once you have changed the .reg file, save it and follow the guide that I linked to:
http://chris123nt.com/2008/11/10/get-ipod-touch-working-in-windows-7-x64/
(NOTE: PLEASE INSTALL iTUNES TO THE DEFAULT FOLDER "C:\Program Files (x86)\" so it wont be any problems.

Sounds like a total bummer, dude. If you're trying to import the iTunes Library.itl file, you can't do that the way you're trying to. Try this out and see if this helps you out:
1) Hold Shift when you open iTunes.
2) You should be prompted to choose iTunes library. Click "Choose iTunes Library..."
3) Navigate to where your .itl file is stored on your external hard drive.
This should populate your library info in iTunes. Let me know how it works out for you!

What won't ? As this is not related to the OP's question then you should have started a new thread, not hijacked this one.
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622 :
How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

Itunes up grade question

i formatted my hard drive and put the new version of itunes on now itunes wants to format my ipod and reinstall everthing will i lose my podcasts that i have save on the ipod and is there any probloms if i do as i have hard there can be probloms if i allow itunes to format the ipod. At this this stage all im allowing it to do is charge my ipod? any advice would be great

Welcome to AD!
Before you formatted your hard drive, did you save the entire itunes folder and the important database file? It is named
*iTunes Library.itl*
That holds your playlists, ratings, play counts, etc. That is what your iPod syncs to. So if you installed a fresh itunes, it is using a new database that does not match what is on the iPod.
If all your music & podcasts are showing up in itunes and you can play them, just go ahead and sync your ipod to the new itunes library database.

Three movies I bought from iTunes this morning do not show up on the 1st Gen AppleTV.

I understand some file formats are not compatible with AppleTV (1st gen) but these films were purchased directly from iTunes. One would assume they are formatted properly to work on Apple equipment, yes? Previously purchased movies show up on the AppleTV just fine, so I'm not sure what's going with these three. They were from the $4.99 Sci Fi collection: Enemy Mine, Dune and Terminator 2. Oldies but goodies. The iMac, where the iTunes Library lives is used to stream the content to the AppleTV, and everything that is in my Library appears to be available for streaming, except these three films. Any advice?

I have now restored Factory Settings on the Apple TV. Looked promising until iTunes hangs everytime I tried to enter the podcast page of the sync options. And I get errors that my newest movies, created in Final Cut Pro X with the Share with 720p Apple Devices export settings are not compatible with Apple TV.
Unbelievable.

How do multiple family members use iTunes.? One account or multiple?

How do multiple family members use iTunes. One account right now but apps gets added to all devices and iTunes messages go to all devices. Can multiple accounts be setup and still have ability to share purchased items?

Hey Ajtt!
I have an article for you that can help inform you about using Apple IDs in a variety of ways:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4895
Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases
You can use different Apple IDs for iCloud and Store purchases and still get all of the benefits of iCloud. Just follow these steps:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
When you first set up your device with iOS 5 or later, enter the Apple ID you want to use with iCloud. If you skipped the setup assistant, sign in to Settings > iCloud and enter the Apple ID you’d like to use with iCloud.
In Settings > iTunes and App Stores, sign in with the Apple ID you want to use for Store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). You may need to sign out first to change the Apple ID.
Mac:
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for iCloud in Apple () menu > System Preferences > iCloud.
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for Store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match) in Store > Sign In. In iTunes 11, you can also click iTunes Store > Quick Links: Account.
PC (Windows 8):
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for iCloud in the Control Panel. To access the iCloud Control Panel, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for Store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match) in iTunes. In iTunes 10, select Store > Sign In. In iTunes 11, click iTunes Store > Quick Links: Account.
PC (Windows 7 and Vista):
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for iCloud in Control Panel > Network and Internet > iCloud.
Enter the Apple ID you want to use for Store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match) in iTunes 10 in Store > Sign In. In iTunes 11, click iTunes Store > Quick Links: Account.
Note: Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID for your iTunes Store account, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days. Learn more about associating a device or computer to your Apple ID.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

I click on itunes but doesnt open and says send error report or dont send

i click on itunes but doesnt open and says send error report or dont send

You will need to provide more details as we cannot see your computer screen. Does this happen every time you launch LabVIEW? What version of LabVIEW are you using? What version of Windows? Does LabVIEW crash? If so, what were you doing at the time it crashed?

Itunes wont open and shows error report.

this is what i get when i open it. it was working fine last night. i opened it and it said updating library, but then i played music without a problem. this morning i uninstalled quicktime cause i never use it. so i think that might have messed it up. so i uninstalled everything and reinstalled itunes 7.2 and now i get this.

iTunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback. So it's best not to uninstall it if you want to use iTunes.
When that message you're getting cites that "Offset: 10004000", almost invariably it's caused by a broken QuickTime. So let's try swapping that out again, this time applying some additional explicit precautions.
head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
7. Restart your computer.
next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

How can a family of 6 share the same itunes library?

My family has a major problem on our hands. We are new to ipods and itunes. We have 1 itunes account. My sons are too young to have their own accounts. They are too young for a credit card, and can't have a paypal account until they're 18. We want to keep our music separate from each others. How do we do this with only one library? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

One thing not mentioned is that if you decide on the multiple user approach, you can have your music folder in Shared Documents so you only store the tracks once.
Each user is free to choose which of those tracks they want in their library.
There is an Apple help article on multiple users.

How can I Migrate/Split itunes/icloud account for a large family now that they have family sharing

Ok, now that Apple has finally come out with family sharing I need to get things sorted out and I think it is going to be a mess. I have 6 family members (my spouse and 4 children) all sharing/using one itunes account. For parental reasons this made perfect sense. Now with the the advent of family sharing and such we have alot of sorting and migrating to do and I am very unsure how to go about it. Here is what we have.
Myself - I have a 64GB iPad 3 and a 64GB iPhone 5
Spouse - 64GB iPhone 5
Children - x4 16GB iPhone 5C (pink, blue, green, and a yellow)
We have had one itunes account now for several years, we used to have x4 16GB iphone 4's and a 16GB iPod touch 4 so we needed it to be shared at the time. We all have different Game Center ID's and Facetime/iMessages are all setup to the phone numbers (aside from mine which also uses the itunes e-mail). We currently have 1 upgraded icloud account with 200GB of storage on it (love the new tiers). So here are the questions.
1) How do I go about using and isolating all the devices so they can all use the iCloud storage? Right now if I try and setup backups by device under the what to backup there is no simple "Full Backup" option, they have all the categories separated. I cannot backup my daughters contacts without forcing a merging of them and so on. Same thing with Documents and Data. Would I need to setup a different iCloud account for each device now?
2) iTunes Music/App purchases. Now that they have a family sharing function I am assuming it would be a good time to separate all the devices (aside from my personal iPad/iPhone). If I understand correctly we need to setup a new itunes account for each and link them with family sharing, does this then allow us to disperse/move items from a singular to the multiple account (at least a one time option to move around) or would it simply be shared off the original account? My daughter for example will be 18 next summer and as such no longer under our care. How do we move her items to her account? She has a lot of purchased Music. Now keep in mind I am talking about an account for someone who was 12 when she had her first device and as such needed to be under her parents.
I just want to state that repurchasing things is NOT an option, and to be frank, according to Canadian laws pertaining to *licensing* we actually own the product if we paid for it and have the right to transfer the ownership thereof. This issue went through the courts regarding used copies of OEM editions of Microsoft Windows several years ago and they closed the legal *license* vs ownership separation.

Go to appleid.apple.com to manage the ID, sign in and select to the Name, ID and Email Addresses section, then change the birth date on the bottom right. At the present time you may not be able to enter the correct birth date, but others have had success changing the year to 2000, or the date to 1/1/2001, both of which will have child ID status.
