ITunes won't launch - error report

After being on the phone with Apple for an hour, they deduced that they can't help me. Maybe someone here can. Every time I launch iTunes, or try to, I get the following error message...
AppName: itunes.exe
AppVer: 9.0.2.25
ModName: ntdll.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.5755
Offset: 0001b21a
I run Windows XP. I have uninstalled and installed three times. Even created a new Windows user, but I get the Same thing.
Any suggestions?

Some more developments on this in recent times. Doublechecking your precise situation, milady.
When you get the iTunes error message, if you click on the "More information" link, does the ModName show ntdll.dll or some other file name?
If you try to launch QuickTime, do you get a "QuickTime has encountered a problem" error? If so, does the "More info" link for the QuickTime describe the QuickTime problem as a BEX?

  • ITunes Won't Launch: Error -50

    I've just installed iTunes 7 on both my PowerMac and PowerBook both running 10.4.7 and the new QuickTime 7.1.3. On both computers, iTunes would crash after I launch it and click on "Agree" in the license screen. When it crashes it says iTunes won't open because of error -50.
    Help would be appreciated.

    I got the exact same error. Please help! Similar problem: I have a Powerbook G4 with 10.4.7 and Quicktime 7.1.2 and got an error (-50) when I launched iTunes 7

  • TS1717 iTunes won't launch, error msg.

    I cannot get iTunes to launch, and receive this message:
    "The iTunes Library .tl file cannot be found or created.  The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "music folder"
    I've repaired and removed it and still the same message appears.  I've done both when asked to "fix" or "remove" and it goes through the process, however it still won't launch, and the same error message appears.
    Thanks!

  • ITunes won't launch (Error 13010)

    This first started after a rainstorm which led to 4 power failures.
    Anyway, I tried removing and recreating the iTunes music library to no effect. I also trashed all the iTunes preferences and plist. files to no effect. I also thought restarting might fix this temporary bug.
    I'm not sure what else to try, short of reinstalling the system, which I hope I don't have to do.

    Hello there,
    I would check out this article. Many users have had success with this solution. Hope the same goes for you.

    Hi tuzas2,
    The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
    Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots. 
    I've quoted some applicable information below for you:
    iPhone and iPod touch: An unknown error (13014), (13136), or (13213) may occur after updating to iTunes 8.0.1 or later
    Solution 1
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
    Solution 2
    Quit and reopen iTunes. If the issue continues, then restart your computer.
    Solution 3
    Quit iTunes, temporarily disable the anti-virus security software on your computer, then reopen iTunes and try to sync your device. If iTunes successfully syncs your iPhone or iPod touch, consult the anti-virus software vendor.
    Solution 4
    Turn off Genius in iTunes in the Genius sidebar (choose View > Hide Genius Sidebar).
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling.  Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library?  HELP!

    My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling.  Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library?  HELP!

    The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevent it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
    If that doesn't cure the problem, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them or if you want to be able to put them back if it doesn't help, drag them to some other location. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistant the next time you launch iTunes. Note that you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
    If that still doesn't work, try this:
    Bugie: Perform a Thorough & Complete Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes/QuickTime.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes won't launch if iPod is connected but ejected

    If I connect my iPod (set to Disk Use, no auto-launch of iTunes), then eject it through the Finder, iTunes won't launch. It hangs with no window until force quit or the iPod is unplugged. I've noticed this through several versions of iTunes.
    Note that I found this topic already in existence here, but I felt that the issue needed a bump to the top of the list.

    Does your quicktime work perfectly? I got that message when I tried to open iTunes 5 a couple times, and my quicktime wasn't being sensed by the computer at all. It was just there.

    Are you using Leopard?
    If so, let's try installing a QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard using a .dmg installer downloaded from the Apple website:

    If you install that does that clear up the iTunes trouble?

  • Itunes won't launch since update

    Seems like i have the same problem as a lot of people.
    Since last update itunes won't launch
    Just get a white screen and the blue circle going around the pointer.
    Have tried the complete unistalll and reinstall without success
    One thing i noticed is that when it freezes and i open task manager to close it down it says 32 bit next to itunes not 64 bit?
    Is the wrong version being downloaded?

    Without trying to be funny here, why should the problem be with my user account or my PC!
    Without trying to be funny, you've accidentally succeeded in being a bit funny here.
    This is a user-to-user troubleshooting forum. Folks come here to troubleshoot their problems. So we, quite naturally assume that's what you were trying to do, and reply to try to help you fix it. The reason why you see so many people here saying there are problems is that this is where people come if they have problems and want to fix them.
    If you believe the problem is all at Apple's end, and would like to register a sort of complaint with them (rather than do any troubleshooting of your problem), then it makes a heck of a lot more sense to contact Apple directly via the product feedback pages. (Because this is primarily an user-to-user forum, there's no guarantee an Apple person will see your post here. They will read your feedback via the form, although they also say they will not respond.) Here's a link through to the iTunes product feedback form:

    (Given that you're not here to troubleshoot, I'll bid you adieu, and desubscribe from this particular topic.)

  • ITunes won't launch after upgrade

    I just downloaded the new iTunes upgrade onto my Macbook, and now iTunes won't launch. It just bounces once and then does nothing. I've gone through the uninstall and reinstall process, but still no dice. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (Also, since I uninstalled it, did I lose everything I'd previously downloaded to iTunes?!)
    **I just realized I've accidentally posted this under the Windows discussion. Sorry.

  • Itunes won't launch after using norton utilities

    Hi,
    I used Norton disk doctor and now itunes won't launch. How do I fix this?
    Many thanks!

    Get rid of Norton's, it's far more trouble than it's worth. This is exactly the kind of thing that happens when you run Disk Doctor or the other parts of the suite, and is why they got out of the Utilities market for the Mac.
    1. Try repair Permissions with Disk Utility
    2. Try Trash the com.apple.iTunes.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder
    3. Try Re-install iTunes. Move the app from the Applications Folder to the Trash, then go to HD / Library / Receipts and trash any pkg file there with iTunes in the name.
    Regards
