ITunes will not open my music CDs when I place them in the DVD drive. I am using Win 7 and latest download of iTunes. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with AV software turned off. No luck. Cannot upload my music CDs to iTunes library. Any ideas?

Using Win 7 and latest download of iTunes, the software will not recognize my music CDs when inserted in my DVD drive. I put a CD in the drive and nothing happens. iTunes does not have a "start" button, or some menu option to tell it to begin copying music to the library, so it just sits there. When I first installed iTunes, it would open the CDs, but I would get an error message after the first track started to transfer. Now, after a coupel uninstalls, disc cleanup, etc., nothing happens when I insert the CD. I am lost here and about to sell my new Ipod Classic because it is useless to me. Maybe I'm just too old to own something like this? Any (serious) suggestions would be appreciated.

In iTunes, do Store->View my AppleID
Click "Deuthorize ALL"
Then, on any computers you still have, do Store->Authorize this computer. If there are less than 5, you will have no problem.
You can only do "deauthorize all" once a year, so in the future, if you ever throw a computer away, remember do to "Store->Deauthorize this computer" first.

fter recent update to my macbook pro itunes will not open, it just bounces when I click on it

Means they are going to mess up your iPhoto Library pictures database so it's unreadable by older versions of iPhoto on older OS X operating systems.
You have the choice to right click on the iPhoto Lbrary and inside is a folder called Origianls, use the Finder to Duplicate this folder, then move the OriginalsCopy out of the iPhoto Library folder and save it elsewhere.
I dont' think Apple will every intentionally touch the originals, however it's possible they could.

My itunes will not pick up my ipads when i put it into the usb ports...???

Hi all,
I'm having a problem where neither of my ipads are being picked up by itunes when they are pulgged into any USB port.... They used to only 3weeks ago...
The only thing i have done is purchased an Ipod of ebay, and loaded music on to it.... i have only just found out the ipod is still registered to who ever had it before....
Is this the problem and any ideas how to solve it guys....?

Two separate problems.
For your iPads, try going into the control panel, add/remove programs. Uninstall iTunes, Apple mobile device service, Apple application support. then redownload and reinstall iTunes
See if it sees your ipad now.
For the iPod, what you've run into is the activation lock. It's a new feature of iOS7 where an owner's apple ID is needed to wipe a device. If the ebay seller cannot or will not give you that apple ID, contact ebay and return the iPod. There is a very good chance that your ipod is stolen (or at the very least not the seller's to sell).
If you can't unlock it, you've bought a brick so get your money back.

Itunes will not open even though I can see it running in the processes

I have tried every answer on every forum I have read so far and nothing has worked. From showing hidden files, to removing SSID's to uninstalling and re-installing older versions of Itunes and yet nothing will work.
I can see it running in processes, but is nowhere to be seen onthe computer? How is this possible?

Try testing iTunes in another user account or in safe mode, like suggested here -> iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
That'll at least help you narrow down what you need to troubleshoot a little.

ITunes will not open after update to 11.4

Thanks.

Others are more likely to help if you stop needlessly repeating yourself and provide some details.
What operating system? Windows (XP, Vista, 7) Mac
Any errors?
Also, try doing a search either here or via Google, you are more likely to get a faster resolution as there is no need to wait on others to respond.

Updated iTunes to newest version, and once iTunes opened, it crashes immediately. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program numerous times. Also had a hard time getting a network connection over the weekend (I knew my connection was fine)

Updated iTunes to the newest version but have been unable to use it since. Once it opens and tries to connect to the iTunes store it crashes and asks me to close the program and report the problem. In the Windows information center, it tells me to update iTunes to the newest version to fix the problem; when I do and I tell it to repair the problem it goes through the motions, but the program doesn't change, it still doesn't work. I have tried uninstalling and resinstalling the program numerous times from the weekend until now to no avail. After the update was completed, it had a difficult time making a network connection; I knew that the connection was fine, as I was on the internet and receiving e-mail at the same time.

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL 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:

HT1199 Newer version of iTunes will not open. My music is gone. How can I get the older version back?

My "newer version" of itunes will not open. How can I either get it to open or get the older version which worked fine?

Restore the backup before you installed.
If you didn't make a backup, at very minimum make sure your Music library isn't compromised by locating the folder you selected the music to be in (usually in Users -> yourname -> Music) and make sure there are several MB of data there by clicking once on the folder, and selecting Get Info from the File menu in the Finder.
If you can't find it, try to locate parts of track names with Find Any File.
http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
then determine which parent file of the .mp3 or .mpa files you have contains all of the music files by getting info under each previous folder in the folder tree.
Once you determine which folder contains all your music, back it up using the Finder, or backup the entire hard drive using cloning software at least to two different drives or two complete copies on DVDs:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
You'll then want to erase and install 10.6 from the system installer you used to put 10.6 on your Mac, and run the combo 10.6.8 updater and apply the necessary security updates:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3261
Then you can install older versions of iTunes for the Mac from here, once you determine which version is compatible with 10.6.8 that you liked before by first checking which version is compatible with what you need:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes_version_history
Once you know that, if you can't find it with Google, let us know and maybe one of us can help. Lastly reload your music in your music folder, and your other applications.

HT204406 i purchased music from itunes and now itunes will not open on this mac. is there a fix for this?

i purchased music from itunes and now itunes will not open. how do i get it back??

Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

Does your iTunes launch properly now?

I have just had my computer fixed because of viruses but my itunes will not open. The message comes up 'itunes has encountered a problem etc.' Also my library showing music and apps for my ipad is not there.

I have just had my computer fixed because of viruses and now my itunes will not open. It keeps coming up with the message 'itunes has encountered a problem etc.'. Also my library, apps etc will not open. Any suggestions please!

Remove and re-install iTunes. This has no affect on the media that is stored on the computer.
That being said, depending on what was done, it may also be necessary to restore the iTuneslibrary.itl file from the backup of the computer.

My itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!

Itunes will not open/ cannot uninstall quicktime

Since restoring my PC following installation of replacement harddrive, I cannot get into itunes. It says itunes has encountered problem and needs to close. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it will not let me uninstall Quicktunes. I get a DLL function call crashed error. Can anyone help? Thanks/

Emma,
I was able to get my iTunes working again - I can't remember the exact order of my steps as I was at my wits end, but I did have luck when I followed the Windows Troubleshooting tips for "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
I believe that I did the following steps:
-I installed the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility then opened it via Start/All Programs/Windows Install Cleanup. (see more detailed instructions in the article referenced above.)
- I selected iTunes from the list and clicked Remove
- I also selected QuickTime from the list and clicked Remove.
- I restarted my PC after exiting Windows Installer Cleanup
- I checked for QuickTime and iTunes in my Control Panel/Add Remove Programs and removed them if they existed
- I may have restarted my PC again at this point
- I then downloaded standalone versions of QuickTime (I did this before iTunes) and iTunes. I found the links to the standalone versions of these applications on the same document with the Clean up iTunes Installer files instructions.
- I did another re-start of my PC
After doing this, my iTunes miraculously worked again and all of my song files were intact from the restore that I did after clearing my hard drive.
I urge you to try this at your own risk... it worked for me, but I'm not an expert. Maybe someone else will see this and can confirm that this is a good fix for you too. I'm sure if you're as frustrated as I was, you are willing to try almost anything!
Good luck!
