ITunes repeated fails

I have a laptop running Windows 8 and two desk tops running Windows 7
since the latest upgrade all 3 wont run iTunes
errors 126 and 127 and missing .dlls
all 3 machines are up to date, virus free
in fact the only thing in common is iTunes 12
I have tried all the suggest uninstalls and re installs in all these communities and forums
to say I am fed up is an understatement
its iTunes that has to be at fault. 3 machines cannot be wrong!
they were all working fine under the older version
these Apple upgrades are becoming an issue
I have 3 iPads, 2 iPhones and 2 iPods and no iTunes
can we have a fix?
really really annoyed
and I have .net up to date on all

That's my boy Brandon, that's what I wanted to hear.... any solutions, any support?
which version of ITUNES did you install 32-bit or 64-bit
I'm getting this following error:
and my windows 8.1 version here:

  • ITunes Match fails to match recently ripped CD. Can I avoid matching this CD?

    I have a CD from a band that is not available on iTunes that I've loaded to my MacBook Pro. As expected iTunes Match can't match this album. As a result, iTunes Match fails to proceed past the third step of the matching process and continously loops. How can I stop this album from being part of the match process?

    Hi,
    What format have you ripped the CD? There are problems with some ALAC and AIFF files.
    If the cd is in your iTunes library, there is no way of stopping match process. Once cd has been uploaded there is a workaround to make remove the tracks from the cloud and not your library.
    However, to resolve your current problem you may need to delete the tracks.

  • Why does iTunes repeatedly think I'm logging in with my Apple ID from a new computer?

    To start, I figure I should give a little background... I have three computers authorized for use: Home PC, home laptop and work laptop (all Windows).  I also have my iPhone 5 and an iPad Mini authorized as devices for use.  I do 90% of my iTunes purchasing from the work laptop.  I'll launch iTunes, attempt to purchase a song and go through the usual of logging in with my Apple ID... no sweat.  Unfortunately, sometimes I'll get a subsequent screen stating:
    "Because this is your first time making a purchase from this computer, you must verify your identity by answering the following security questions..." 
    The thing is, just two days prior, I purchased songs from iTunes on this laptop!  I know that answering the questions shouldn't be an issue, but unfortunately, I tend to forget the answers (Sorry, I work for an Internet-based company, and we use A LOT of passwords and set up a bunch of security questions). 
    I'm just curious why iTunes thinks I'm using a "new" computer... Does it also use the IP address from which my requests are coming, for validation? (Apple ID Login/Password isn't enough security?)  As I go between WiFi to an ethernet-connected docking station intermittently at the office, I can see how IP addresses might be rotated.  If this is the case, will this impact the "five system authorization maximum" (i.e., is iTunes adding new systems to my "authorized list" each time this happens)?
    In a time of constant hacking and Internet security weaknesses, I figure I should be happy this is in place... I gues I'm just looking for some answers.
    Thanks,
    - Vern

    Hey there Vernholio,
    It sounds like you are repeatedly being asked to authorize your computer even though you have made many purchases oh it from the iTunes Store. Generally this issue is caused by permissions or restrictions on the user account. I have 2 articles to recommend for you here. The first is:
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
    and
    iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1277
    And to answer your question about whether or not the IP address changing might count against your authorization limit, no it will not. iTunes uses the computers installed hardware and software to keep track of that. Check out this info about authorization and deauthorization:
    Remember to deauthorize your computer before you sell it, give it away, or get your computer serviced. Also, make sure you deauthorize your computer before you upgrade your RAM, hard disk or other system components, or reinstall Windows. If you do not deauthorize your computer before you upgrade these components, one computer may use multiple authorizations.
    From: iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • ITunes silently fails to launch in just my user account

    I'm running Windows XP SP3 32-bit with an administrator level account, installing iTunes for the first time ever on any of my systems in order to use it with my new iPod touch 5th gen, only to find that after install it won't launch.
    Went through the Apple support instructions for a launch failure and discovered that if I created a brand new administrator level account, then ran iTunes in it, it would launch normally and go through it's new install setup, and nothing seemed to be wrong with it. So there's something about my primary user account that causes iTunes to not work at all.
    When I try running iTunes, iTunes.exe will show in the Task Manager for a second or so, then vanish with no error at all. Running Process Monitor and filtering only for the iTunes process shows that it doesn't even establish a running process or any threads. There's a bunch of registry and file system access and nothing else before iTunes.exe terminates.
    This has got me stumped, and all my searches haven't turned up any help on this, so I've come here. Is there any light any of you could shed on why iTunes is failing for me?

    As far as I know, when you sign OUT of your Cloud account nobody will be able to use that account again until the user signs back IN
    Of course... any user who does not sign out and then turns the computer off will be (I think) the "user of record" when the computer is started again

    I think its weird that I experienced both the 3194 error code and "secure link to the itunes store failed" diagnostics error on three computers running on different OS (XP, vista and 7), itunes version and connectivity types (wireless and cabled). Could it be possible that there is a problem on Apple's server?
    Are you still there, shintenhouji?
    Perhaps try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (I've seen a few cases in recent times of this sort of thing being associated with LSP issues.)

  • Itunes update failed on 2 computers, couldn't find msvcr80.dll files.Now have no itunes at all

    iTunes update failed on both computers. Couldn't find msvcr80.dll, now I have no iTunes at all. Is it iTunes or the computers?

    I did NOT move the other folders (Album Artwork, Mobile Applications, Playlists, Previous iTunes Libraries) or files (iTunes Library, iTunes Library Extras, iTunes Library Genius, iTunes Music Library) that are located inside the Music/iTunes folders.
    should be no problem. i'm doing this also.
    Everything was working fine on both computers - Consolidated the library on the external drive and did the Change the location of the iTunes Media folder in Preferences on both computers, no problem.
    However I added two movies and a few songs to my desktop Mac yesterday - all showed up and played fine after adding them - but when I plug the external drive into my laptop, the new additions don't appear in the library.
    if you're purchasing content from the iTMS, you could use _*Home Sharing*_ to automatically add new content to all machines on your local network.
    Am I right in guessing that it is because the iTunes Library file on the laptop isn't the same as the one on the desktop computer?
    yes.
    Is there a way to add them to the library listing on the laptop? If yes, is that something I need to do every time I connect the external drive to the laptop if I've added things from the desktop computer (I never add stuff on the laptop).
    basically, yes. however, there's _*Home Sharing*_ and ... see below.
    Should I have put the entire iTunes folder - files, folder and media - onto the external drive?
    that's one possibility, however, only one Mac @ a time could access that library. there are other options:

  • Secure link to iTunes Store failed: HELP!

    I'm new to iTunes and purchased my first iPod yesterday night. The first time I plugged in my iPod to sync it, I wasn't able to. At first I had version 10 then it updated. On the previous version I was able to access the iTunes store but wasn't able to sync my iPod. I had downloaded the most recent version of iTunes (10.1) and then this problem occured.
    "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. The network connection timed out. Please make sure that the network settings are correct and that your netowrk is connected, then try again."
    I've read several different manuals and emailed Apple about it. I've tried a lot of different things to fix it.
    +-change firewall settings+
    +-redownloaded iTunes+
    +-contacted Apple Tech Support+
    +-changed proxy settings+
    +-changed permissions+
    +-disabled firewall+
    +-restarting iTunes+
    +-restarting router+
    And several others. Nothing seems to work. I ran a diagnostic review and this is what came up.
    *Network interfaces verified*
    *Internet connection verified*

    i found a solution that worked in my case..i found it in this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2284692?start=0&tstart=0 in texlark's post..i copied and pasted it here:
    The Fix (& It's NOT Your Firewall)
    A. Symptoms
    When you try to connect to the iTunes Store you may receive the alert message "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occured (-9808). There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."
    B. Resolution
    Check your computer's date, time, and time zone. Set the correct date, time, and time zone if needed. If your computer's date, time, and time zone are all correct and you still see this alert message, this issue can be resolved by modifying certain settings in the Internet Options control panel:
    1) Go to the Start menu and choose Control Panel.

  • Secure Link to itunes store failed issue

    I cannot access the itunes store or even authorize my computer.  I have been working on this for months.  Done everything that Apple support emailed me and I am ready to go crazy.  My diagnostic shows secure link to itunes store failed.  Can anyone help?

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

    Hi msahed,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there is an issue with your PC establishing a secure connection to the iTunes Store and the firmware update server. Try following along with the articles below, as they should resolve the issues that you described.
    iTunes: About the "A secure network connection could not be established" alert
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1470
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes can't contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

    I hope this helps.

  • Secure link to iTunes Store Failed using XPSP3

    I cannot log into the iTunes store. When I run diagnostics it indicates Secure  Link to iTunes Store Failed. It does not appear to be my related to McAfee security software as the issue remains when the file wall is disabled. I have following the trouble shooting steps from the website and have also tried disabling all start up programs except qttask and iTunes Helper.
    Any other suggestions on how to restore the secure link and enable connection?

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES>Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Sorry, wrong section

  • Secure link to itunes store failed computer not connected to internet tried ununininstalling everything to do with itunes no joy also error code coming up E0000225 anybody out there got any ideas

    Secure link to itunes store failed, (computer not connected to internet tried uninstalling everything to do with itunes,no joy also errror code E0000225 appearing. Have turned off windows firewall and also my Bullguarg security settings.Can anybody out there please help me thanks.

    Hi,
    You could be right that the response to clicking on help is a symptom of an entirely separate issue, but nevertheless the secure link to itunes is definitely failed, and I am unable to log into Itunes on either PC.
    I also noticed that even if I click on the link to create a whole new Apple ID, I cannot do that either, presumably because the secure link is not working.
    After I noticed that there were weird things happening this morning, I did change my Apple ID password in the hope that this might resolve it, but it seemed to make it worse.  Now, all of my apple devices keep constantly prompting me for the apple ID password, and randomly either accepting it, or telling me it is wrong.  I know the password is correct because I can log onto the apple Manage My Apple ID screens in a web browser with it.
    I was starting to think that this is an ISP issue (BT Broadband), but I have not seen anyone else posting with the same issue.  Does Apple use a different security protocol to everyone else?  I'm asking because all other secure services seem to be working fine, but anything related to apple that requires a secure connection or authentication is having issues.
    I have also seen reference to making sure that Itunes is listed as an allowed program in Windows Firewall.  I cannot seem to do this because it says that my Windows firewall is being managed by McCafee.  I have checked the settings in McCafee, and it appears to me that Itunes, Bonjour, and many other apple programs have been granted "Full" access.  As said before in any case I have tried temporarily disabling the firewall and even this did not solve the problem.
