ITunes won't open after I downloaded 11.2

I've hemmed and hawed about updating my iTunes for a while, and the latest glitch made me wish I listened to my instincts.
After upgrading from 10.7 to 11.2, iTunes keeps crashing within a few seconds of its opening.
Here's the 11.2 Windows error message I keep getting upon the iTunes crash:

Much appreciated if someone can help resolve; I've already tried reinstalling, uninstalling+reinstalling and reverting to 10.7 (but that version won't open since the library file's already been updated by 11.2 & thus, unreadable by 10.7.)
Thanks!

found this in another post and it worked for me;
OK, so right after posting this I found this advice by complete chance:
If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT) as you start iTunes, then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.
I opened itunes in safe mode, turned of "show itunes in the cloud purchases" and now itunes works as normal, which is great.  I checked on my girlfriends side of the computer and that box was unchecked on hers which is why it had been working.  I don't use the cloud for anything so I can only assume that itunes was trying to communicate with a cloud (account?) that does not exist and that conflict was causing the program to crash.
If anyone has a better explanation for the Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases feature and why it was messing up my itunes I would love to hear it.  Thanks.

  • Itunes won't open after i download it. How do I Fix it?

    I can't really figure it out because i have tries turning off Norton and tried to reconfigure some other internet security but nothing seem to work. I looked at some other posts and they didn't seem to help me. It is a Windows XP computer, Toshiba. It occured when i was trying to update and i had to restart. After i had restarted i couldn't get back into it. It looked as if it were loading and then the loading goes away. The file keeps saying that a file is missing: please redownload. I have uninstalled it and redone all it said to do and it still doesn't work. If you can help please answer this.

    YEAH THAT REALLY HELPED AND I FOUND THIS TOO FOR WINDOWS USERS!!
    Turn Norton 2005's Personal Firewall OFF, (turn it OFF Permanently until your ready to turn it back on) then click CONFIGURE.
    Under the PROGRAMS tab remove any reference to Apple iTunes or iTunes or iTunes Helper Module or anything related. and reboot.
    After coming back go back to Norton 2005's Personal Firewall, click CONFIGURE. Under the PROGRAMS tab click ADD at the bottom, a SELECT A PROGRAM
    window will pop up. Add the following files one at a time, iTunes.exe, iTunesHelper.exe, QuickTimePlayer.exe, qttask.exe, QTInfo.exe. The last 3 are found
    in your Quicktime folder where that is in your system. Click OK. Turn Norton 2005's Personal Firewall ON, and try starting iTunes again.
    This worked for me. It seems the Quicktime files were never automatically entered into my Norton 2005's Personal Firewall allowable programs listing. Adding them
    manually should help. I also noticed that from my previous version of iTunes the program listed in the Firewall was named Apple iTunes and not iTunes after I upgraded to 6.
    Let me know if this works out.

  • ITunes won't open after downloading 7.0

    My iTunes won't open after downloading 7.0, what should I do?

    replying to Robert
    I get a Windows error code of 0x666D743F
    First see:
    iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes fails to launch with an unknown error
    There are some other possibilities
    That error has been known to be produced by having Total Recorder or the Volume Logic plug-in installed on the PC.
    For a workaround for Total Recorder, see:
    chuckieb: One fix for iTunes 7 "0x666D743F" error
    To check on the Volume Logic issue, see:

  • ITunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?

    iTunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?  And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

    It would help to know versions here.  I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed.  Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago.  If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses.  Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

    I also have the same problem, but the Software Updates tool doesn't recognise that Quicktime is out of date. Have you tried downloading Quicktime 7.7 Leopard from http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime as this worked for me...?

  • ITunes won't open after update; MacBook Pro, Mac OSX 10.6.8, iTunes version 11.1.5

    iTunes won't open after update - help, please; MacBook Pro, Mac OSX 10.6.8, iTunes version 11.1.5.

    i had a problem similar to yours and better yet, i have the fix for it. i downloaded maverick 4 months ago and was without itunes ever since. all itunes icon did was bounce. itunes would never open and whats more, is when i would try to update it, i would get a "thank you for downloading itunes!" page , but the download would never work. so i scoured the net for solves. nothing that worked. <4 months later> then last night i took a new approach. i decided even though maverick would not allow me to uninstall itunes, i would find a way to uninstall itunes. then i would reinstall back to 11.1.5 i was successful and heres what i did.
    step one-
    Back up your iTunes Library.itl file, found under ~/Music/iTunes
    (even tho i didnt, i only had 3 artists in there at the time. and they didnt get erased but i advise you back up just in case.)
    step two-
    download itunes 10.7 from apple. i used this link Download it from Apple here
    (i pulled the link from Aarons website (awesometast.com). you download 10.7 however you want but i used the link above and have had no issues).
    although im not sure you need to do this step ( you may be able to download 11.1.5 itunes without 10.7, i did because i was following intructions from http://awesometoast.com/downgrading-to-itunes-10-7-from-itunes-11-on-osx/
    step 3-
    open Terminal
    step 4-
    enter in these 3 commands hitting return after each line. 1st line nothing seems to happen, 2nd line nothing seems to happen and 3rd line gives you a warning and requires password to continue. when i did it, my password didnt appear as i entered it and i hit return without looking, so i entered it in again, although im not sure i had to the 2nd time.
    killall iTunes
    killall "iTunes Helper"
    sudo rm -rf /Applications/iTunes.app/
    step 5-
    drag off and dump the itunes icon (which now has the ? shadow in it) off your dock.
    step 6-
    install 10.7 itunes you downloaded earlier. (not sure if this part is neccesary. you may be able to just download 11.1.5 but i downloaded 10.7 because i was following Aarons steps.) itunes now works.
    step 7-
    go to apple and update to 11.1.5 itunes. install it. open it and you have itunes 11.1.5 in perfect working order. assuming you have a decent internet speed for the downloads, the whole process takes very little time.
    with those steps above, you can solve itunes just bouncing and not launching issues and also the "thank you for downloading" and nothing downloads issue. enjoy. also i would like to give a shout out to http://awesometoast.com and thank Aaron for the knowledge that enabled me to get itunes back into my life.

  • ITunes won't open after OS update to Yosmite

    ITunes won't open after OS update, ITunes has been updated, it won't open or bounce. It will not allow me to move it to trash or reinstall it. I have already updated to OS X Yosmite two times as directed by apple, I have rebooted in safe made as well as Command/Option/P/R before start up. I have opened console/system log to see if there is anything going on but when I click on Itunes nothing happens, not even so much as half a line of script. I'm stumped. If I wanted someone to tell me to turn it off and on again I'd just watch IT Crowd. please help

    Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
    If you head into your applications folder and locate iTunes. Right click iTunes and show package contents. In there there will be a contents folder --> MacOS --> double click on the iTunes terminal icon. This should force iTunes to open via a terminal window and at the very least it will tell you what it is getting stuck on.

  • Pages won't open after I downloaded some of your updates. HELP

    Pages won't open after I downloaded some Apple Updates

    First, we are all just users like yourself so it's not "your" updates. Which updates have you applied & in what order?
    Quite a few users have had problems. From what I've read of those who have had success, this is what I suggest. It all depends on how you obtained Pages in the first place.
    If you bought Pages from the Mac App Store:
    Delete the Pages.app from your Applications folder. You will need to enter your password to do so.
    Launch Mac App Store  & click on Purchases. You should now see an INSTALL button. Click that, enter your password, if necessary, & you should now have the latest version.
    If you installed Pages from a retail box or purchased a license from the downloaded trial:
    First, you must make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. All three applications must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
    Now, choose Software Update from the Apple menu, from System Preferences or launch the Mac App Store & click Updates. You should get a window similar to this screenshot. Now click the Update button next to iWork 9.2.
    Alternatively, you can download the standalone update here. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563
