ITunes v7.0.2 - installs but won't set up

Hey guys,
I seem to have the same problem some other people on here have, I've just had a newer ipod that requires latest ITunes, it downloads, it installs, and then it just sits there and none of the files will respond to anything further, and it won't enter the Setup stage (not even the ITunes Helper file will respond).
I've downloaded it to my dad's laptop and it functions fine on there (but not so great as not my computer with my library!), so I can't figure out what's wrong.
I've tried everything I can think of:
-the computer meets the min requirements;
-the software (and MS Installer software) are allowed on my firewall;
-I've tried msconfig to weed out any conflicting programs (and setting up a new, clean user account to see if system wide) - nothing;
-I've checked for viruses that might affect it;
-checked the file path
-etc, etc, etc
I'm stuck - anyone able to help? Suggestions on a postcard (or here) please.
Any help would be much appreciated!

No error messages, just the hourglass for a couple of seconds then nothing.
hmmmm. well, at least we've ruled out one of the most common causes of that. (NIS 2005 interference.)
let's check on another few things.
(1) try launching your QuickTime. does it:
(a) launch perfectly fine?
(b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
(c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)
(2) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?

Of course I can't throw it away since I get a message it's part of the sytem. I can show package contents and throw those away, but evidently not a good idea!!

I think figured out what is going on here... If you have set your Windows OS time manually, Apple iTunes will not honor the time you set in Windows XP...
In my case, I had not applied the Windows update that changes the Daylight savings rules. No big deal I thought... I can easily correct the time manually. Well... iTunes will not like it if you do that. You have to have your daylight savings rules set correctly on the PC. Microsoft has a free program called TZEdit that will let you adjust the DST boundaries.
Once I set the rules correctly and then set my time keeping back to "Automatic" it fixed it. Hope this helps...

ITunes 9.0.2 installation program won't run

I've been trying to upgrade iTunes for 2 days now but to no avail. I even uninstalled its v9.0.1.,and did another Windows Updating check. After downloading iTunesSetup file (v9.0.2.25), tried to run/open it but this prompt came out: " Security Warning Windows has found a problem with this file Name: iTunesSetup.exe Publisher: Unknown Publisher The file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher." I tried scanning it with the antivirus program, the result came out with this message: " This file is signed with a broken signature issued by: Apple, Inc." I need help, please....

Downloaded the setup file using Firefox. Located the file using Windows Explorer. Ran/opened the installation program but at the STATUS: COPYING NEW FILES this prompt appeared: "The cabinet files 'iTunes.cab'required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-Rom, or a problem with this package."
Hmmmmm. So, it's looking like something damaging the installers on the way down to your PC. On IE it manifests as digital signature issues ... with Firefox it's just a damaged installer.
Okay, experimental advice but it will do no harm. Although the following document is for a different sort of error, try the advice in it:

(If the box is already checked, try unchecking and rechecking it.)
After that, can any of your browsers download an undamaged installer?

Rosetta Stone TOTALe (Spanish) 4.5.5 Fatal Application Error 1141 Installs But Won't Launch After MacBook Restarts

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9.4 (Maverick) and am trying to add Rosetta Stone Latin Am Spanish to this laptop, after having successfully installed it several years ago on a older MBP.
I was given the latest download file TOTALe 4.5.5 by Rosetta Stone Support for this purpose. It will install fine and work, immediately upon installation, but when I shut down and restart, I can no longer launch the program and get the Fatal Application Error 1141 code instead.
I have been through this issue many, many times with Rosetta Stone Support already and have followed, alone and with them, the troubleshooting link set up for this problem without success. (Here is the link: https://rosettastone.secure.force.com/en/language-learning/articles/Error-1141-a ppears-when-I-start-the-Rosetta-Stone-TOTALe-application#macdiv) Rosetta Stone has run out of ideas to resolve this issue. (I have saved about 10 chat session transcripts where the support people have me run through the same steps over and over, despite my informing them of the previous lack of success in following these steps.)
My OS X is up to date. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem running Maverick.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. This is a relatively new MBP and the only add-on software other than Rosetta Stone is Microsoft Office.

I have the same problem. Back in 2011 I bought Rosetta and got the very same problem, talked and talked to their support to no avail. On that instance they returned my purchase money. This time around I asked beforehand if the software was totally compatible with Yosemite and they said yes. I just got it, tried to unit and got error 1141 again. It is very frustrating! I will talk to them again but my hopes are very low. I guess one needs to understand that the software is crap!

Itunes 10 Installs but won't open - Please Help

I had Itunes 10 installed working on my computer. I installed a program which also installed an older version of Quicktime which I think was version 6.5. The next time I tried to open Itunes it said I needed verion 7.5 of Quicktime to open Itunes please reinstall Itunes. Now comes the problem. I have installed and uninstalled Itunes about 10 times, everytime it install ok but does not open when I click on the icon. The itunes.exe file opens in task manager for a few seconds then closes. I have searched a few places for solutions with no avail. I have tried the correct order of removing apple programs and deleting temp folder and internet cache. I have tries msconfig but can't find any of the programs which have affected other users. I have tried creati9ng another user account for windows but Itunes still won't open. Can anyone please help. My computer is Windows 7 32 bit. Thank in advance.

No, the program I installed was Winavi MP4 which coverts video to ipod psp format etc.
Ack, that one's just as bad. It's been causing this sort of grief for iTunes users for over five years now.
What it has probably done here is drop old versions of QuickTime componentry in unorthodox locations on the PC (usually down in your operating system files). So we're going to go looking for that.
First we'll adjust some view settings on the PC.
1. From the Start menu, click Open.
2. In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now, in Computer, open your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "System32" folder.
What files or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file or folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Itunes installs but won't open. HELP!

Hey
So I was really pumped about the new itunes version, so I installed the new one and double clicked on the new icon to open it up.
Nothing happens.
I've since uninstalled everything (itunes and quicktime), gotten rid of the old itunes folder, and reinstalled everything (once together, once with itunes and quicktime seperately). Still no luck. My icons are now all the new blue ones (for music files and for the itunes icon). But the process just won't start. My task manager registers itunes.exe as running for about five seconds, and then the process drops off the list.
Any suggestions????

the way that itunes.exe disappears after a few seconds in Task Manager suggests malware. (that's how itunes.exe used to behave for folks with earlier versions of itunes who were getting "error message free" itunes launch failures caused by a Qoologic adware infestation.)
so let's see if we can catch something like that. download the free trial version of Ewido, and scan the PC. does that pick up anything? if so, does itunes launch afterwards?

ITunes 7.0.2 installs but now iTunes won't open

I hadn't upgraded to 7.0.2 after hearing all the problems it had, but now I have a new nano and I need to upgrade. I tried and iTunes wouldn't open at all. I uninstalled and then reinstalled and still no luck. I've browsed around on here to look for advice but no one seems to have had their questions answered.
Help?

Quicktime opens with no problem but when I try and open saved videos I only get audio and a green static-y screen.
interesting.
iTunes uses QuickTime for video and audio playback. if there's a problem with QuickTime, a common symptom is that itunes won't launch (although folks tend to get an error message under those circumstances).
so, let's see if the itunes launch failure is an unusual side effect of the cause of those QuickTime symptoms.
so even though you can't open your itunes, try running through the techniques from the following document:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows video playback perfomance issues
if you can get QuickTime to play videos properly after applying one or more of those techniques, try launching itunes again. does she launch properly under those circumstances?

CS3 installs but won't run

Ok - not sure if this goes in this section or not.. but it's a technical question.
My b/f bought me a Dell Laptop last week. It has the recommended minimum of everything adobe says it needs for photoshop CS3 (see below for 1721 specs)
When I installed it on the laptop - it was slow, but said it installed. But when I go to open up Photoshop, it opens the screen - and then just hangs. After about 5 minutes it says not responding and I close it. Any of the other programs that came with won't even get that far. I click on them and it gives the little "thinking" circle (as I call it.. lol) and then nothing.
I have read that CS3 has issues with Vista - but their site says the home premium should work. I've also read about 64 bit issues.. but the OS is 32 bit - so it's capable of running 32bit systems... I guess.
I called adobe yesterday after installing and reinstalling CS3 15+ times... with the same issue. I was on the phone for about 2 hours with them. Basically - they have NO CLUE what it would be since it installs fine and opens with no error messages. I checked the log files and there is nothing in there I see that says any kind of error.
I have disable windows defender, uninstalled McAfee and google desktop (all are known to cause issues with CS3), I have ALL non MS startup services turned off.. I have turned off the MS users control.. all suggested by the adobe tech.
I have installed using the run as administrator. Nothing. Created a new admin account and installed on that user and opened on reg admin account. Nothing. (again typical things that correct cs3 install issues)
The last thing the guy said was that it might be a video issue. I checked and there aren't any issues mentioned and no driver updates listed.
We tryed installing this on my b/f's laptop. He bought the exact one I have (except his is red.. mine blue.. lol) and it does the EXACT same thing...
So today we called dell. they say it's a software issue and won't answer any questions for free. Apparently only hardware support is free... But they won't accept this is a hardware conflict with the software..
errrrr
Anybody have any clues on this?

Rob - thanks for taking a stab at this.
I have tried installing from the DVD and also from the zip file. the zip file was extracted to the hard drive brfore I ran it - and I ran it as administrator.
And when it stalls - it gives the (NOT RESPONDING) tag on the window - which usually means that even if I leave it (and I have for up to 20 minutes) - still nothing.
Here's the update from my dealings with DEll today...
Dell tech support guy told me that it was a know issue that CS3 WON'T run on Vista and that Adobe is working the issue
Told them that I knew others that were running it on Vista and it worked fine. They had no answer.
Then I waited for the Technical support manger to call. This is after expressing my displeasure to the technical supervisor about them trying to pawn this issue off on anyone else but themselves. Why can't they go grab a 1721 off the shelf and replicate the issue and try to figure it out from there?!?!?!
I used to work on a network helpdesk.. if I tried to pull that crap answer without trying to replicate the issue and AT LEAST try to find an answer.. I wouldn't have lasted very long at all!!!!
The Tech manager told me to call customer support and ask for an OS swap (from vista to XP) because they don't know what the problem is and so it muct be a Vista compatibility issue
I call customer support. They say that they no longer will give out XP since it is a step backwards. And to install XP on the machine ourselves (even a liscensed copy) would void the warranty. They suggest I talk to sales about swapping the laptop out with a "more compatible" one. Which isn't a totally bad idea since I really do think it is an AMD/ATI conflict.
They transfer me to Sales.. ohh - you used the Employee Purchase program.. you need to talk to them.. and they transfer me.
The EPP people tell me.. ohhhh you didn't actually go through us since you bought it off the Dell Outlet store. So they transfer me.
The dell outlet store says they will be more than happy to swap me out to an Intel based machine.
Only catch is the Intels are more expensive. They don't have any for the price we paid for the amd's. Fot about $40 more I can get one with a slower processer, a gig less ram, no dvd writer, but with a 160gb hd. To get compatible to mine - would be about $150 more.
And they only have silver in the low end, and black or brown in the higher. Not that I really give a s@!t what the color is.. but it brings up the main reason I am sooo pissed abput all of this....
Why should I have to pay more money, settle on doing without option/features want/need.. just because THEY don't want to take the time to figure out what the real issue is?!?!?! Why isn't it them doing these calls and doing all this troubleshooting.. Why am I being peanilzed for THEM not wanting to do their jobs....
Told the B/F that I am done with Dell. That I don't want the laptop anymore and I don't want any other one from them. He says he'll pay the extra and get me the other one.. but that isn't the point....
Not sure what my next move is.

I can't backup my iPhone 5 to iTunes... it starts but won't complete. Please help!

I have the new iPhone 5 with the latest software, and iTunes latest version.
When I try to backup my phone via iTunes, the backup starts, and the progress bar begins to move and then gets stuck at the end. I have waited a long time but it doesn't go any further. I then have to skip the backup in order to Synch.
On iTunes, it says the latest backup is: Unknown. I only have a backup of my last phone before I changed the handset. Very annoying!
I have repeatedly tried to backup and sometimes the progress bar gets almost to the end, but no, it stops. Very frustrating.
The phone synchs OK, but have to skip/cancel backup in order to get to the synch phase.
I tried to restore the phone and start again (restored to the previous backup some time ago, before the new handset) but no, doesn't work.
Please help!
Thanks

Question answered by "Toonz" in another thread

ITunes used to be fine, but won't play anything anymore

I had opted not to update to 7.5 until today. When I updated to iTunes ver. 7.3, the update created a "dead" duplicate for every mp3 that I had imported. I decided I did not need that hassle again, if it could be avoided.
Today, I noticed that none of my files would play in iTunes. There was no error message. When I select a track to play, the time remaining bar does not even start to move. I can select pause and then select play, but the tracks never start to play.
As a result of this new glitch, I updated to 7.5. The glitch has remained after a successful install. There is no error message, and iTunes is not locking up or "freezing." It just won't play a single track (I have tried tracks that are residing on my external HD, as well as those residing on my internal HD and none of the tracks play).
Please help.

Photoshop CS3 installs but won't run on new OS install

Hello,
I've been searching through the forums and have seen some users with a similar problem, but haven't found any info that's relevant to my situation.
I have done a fresh install of Windows XP Pro SP2 and decided to install a brand-new copy of CS3 at the same time.
This computer is totally fresh - there are no printers, no TWAIN drivers, no funny fonts or games installed. The only software on this machine is Windows and whatever updates Windows Update has pushed out.
The Photoshop installer runs fine - no crashes or error messages. However, when I try to start up Photoshop, I just get the outer frame of the app window and (usually) the File / Edit / Image / Layer... menu bar. There is no splash screen, and no palettes appear. If I click anywhere in the app window, the menu bar disappears and the title bar says "Not responding".
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling from both the DVD and the web download. I've tried selecting the "repair" option on the install screen. I've tried downloading and installing the 10.0.1 update.
I tried installing Lightroom and Reader to see if those work (they do).
I tried installing the latest video driver for my gfx card.
None of these change the behaviour I've been seeing at all. I opened a support case with Adobe about 4 days ago but haven't gotten a response yet.
Any thoughts? I was able to run PS CS1 on this computer just fine before I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled everything, so I don't think it's a hardware issue.
Thanks,
Thomas Park

Hi Guys,
Ive got the same problems as you, Win XP SP2 on RAID 1 hard disk set on an AMD raid controller, but I have no driver to roll-back to.
Ive installed Photoshop CS3 and also Acrobat Standard 8 (which used to run fine on an old system), but all i get now is the blank window with the menu and title bar and thats all.
Can some one help? (will this licensing patch resolve the issue - and where can i get it from?)
Thanks

Adobe App Manager installs but won't work... "Download Error, Contact Support"

Downloaded the AAM through the creative cloud site, it installs and when run it shows this error message "Download Error, Contact Support." I then downloaded the AAM as a package from Adobe support. Before installing it I removed the previous install from my computer. The program installed again but I recieved the same message. I cannot download any apps from the Creative Cloud because of this.
I have searched the support pages and cannot find anyone having an error message like this one.

From the Creative Cloud web site, when I start a download of an app within one second the application manager opens and immediately gives me this error message.
I have not been able to download anything or sign in with my Adobe ID (using AAM). I also get this same error message if I open the AAM from my computer.
