Itunes won't open because of audio configuation

When I try and open itunes I get this
Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration
What should I do?

that's typically caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)

Itunes unable to open because of audio configuration

I recently installed windows updates for XP as well as itunes updates. Ever since then I receive the following message: "itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration." I tried to repair itunes as well as reinstall itunes with the new version and I still get the same message. I also reviewed my audio config in windows and nothing is different from before. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know how to get around this?
Thanks!

ITunes Won't Open Because of Quicktime

I have a computer with Windows 7 Pro and I can't get iTunes to work correctly on it. I was getting an error message that was saying that iTunes couldn't open because Quicktime wasn't installed. However, quicktime is installed and working properly. I've uninstalled everything related to apple and reinstalled it, and after doing that, iTunes worked, but today I started getting the same error message. I'm not sure what the issue is because there doesn't seem to be an issue with Quicktime.

I'm going through the SAME ****. I install Itunes and quicktime seems to go ok until the end of the installation and then all **** breaks loose. Some error comes up saying that I can't install it. THEN It says the installation finished successfully. So I click finish and what happends now is that it specifies that I need to update my quicktime to open itunes... I dont care about Quicktime, i want itunes to work, anyone have a link to an older STANDALONE version of itunes? Where you don't need quicktime?

ITunes won't open because the library file is locked

The iTunes 4 Music Library file is locked, on a locked disc, or I do not have write permission, what do I do? It was working perfectly until I plugged in my iPod. I waited, the iPod did not appear. The computer then told me that I had improperly disconnected it, yet I didn't touch it. So at that point I did disconnect it. My computer froze, so I restarted it and now iTunes won't open. Help!

Megan hello,
welcome to the Apple Discussions open the iTunes folder in your Music folder and select the iTunes 4 Music Library file... type cpmmand - D and this will duplicate the file... put the original file on the desktop and change the name of the duplicate to be the same as one you just moved ... double/click on this file after the name change... if all is okay you can trash the file on the desktop later..
let's know if it all works again Megan .... TP

ITunes won't open because the iTunes Library.itl file is locked

Recently our motherboard died. When we replaced it, we also had to wipe our hard drive. We saved our files, including my iTunes library.
I reinstalled iTunes today, but when I tried to open it, I got this error message: "The iTunes Library.itl file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file." I can't find a Library.itl file, and I don't know why it's locked. What am I doing wrong?

How did you try searching for the ITL file?
If you do find it (it should be in \My Documents\My Music\iTunes), right click on the ITL file. Uncheck the "READ ONLY" box and do the same for the iTunes Music Library.xml file.
Or you can try holding down the shift key while iTunes is opening. Create a new library and name it NEW. Then at least you can see if iTunes will open.

ITunes won't open but there's no error message...

...it just won't open.
I just updated to iTunes 7 because of an issue I'm trying to correct with my iPod. I believe I've had this problem with iTunes 7 before, and the last time I ended up reverting to iTunes 6.
When I manage to successfully install iTunes 7, I click on the desktop icon to open it and it looks like it's about to load, but then nothing happens. So I try opening it from the start ment and still nothing. Then I try opening it by trying to play an mp3 through it, and still nothing.
I really hope someone can help me with this, because if I end up needing a new iPod I'm gonna need the newest iTunes for it, I'm sure.

Help! This is happening to me too, and I can't find the fix, if there is one. I just downloaded the newest update (wish I hadn't). It took a few tries to open it, but it worked. The second time, it didn't open. NO error message. I've tried every way of opening a program, and nothing happens.
(1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
NO NORTON INTERNET SECURITY 2006
(2) 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?)
IT SAYS IT IS LOADING... FOR OVER 15 MINUTES
(3) 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?
ITUNES.EXE DOES SHOW UP IN THE PROCESSES TAB AND STAYS THERE
THE ONLY OTHER ODD THING IN THE PAST YEAR, IS THAT 2 WEEKS AGO, A WINDOW CAME UP ASKING IF I WANTED TO RECONFIGURE WHAT STARTS WHEN I START WINDOWS. I CHOSE THE WRONG THING BECAUSE NOW THERE ARE TONS OF EXTRANEOUS PROGRAMS RUNNING ON MY COMPUTER.
HELP!!??!!

Premiere crashed, my project won't open because of an "unknown error," and my autosave apparently stopped working 6 hours ago... Any solution?

I'm working in Premiere Pro CC 2014 on an early 2014 iMac. I started to notice my session was getting kind of buggy - audio clips started missing from my timeline, effect controls on some of my video clips had set themselves to the defaults. So I was trying to fix some of these things as I was editing. I save compulsively (like after every couple of edits), so I had not noticed that my session was no longer auto-saving.
Suddenly Premiere crashed. The recovery file will not open "due to an unknown error." The original file that crashed will not open either (same message), and I notice the file size is about half of what it should be. When I tried to open an auto-saved version, I discovered that the last auto-save was last night at about 10 p.m. (I quit working last night at about 1 a.m., so it just spontaneously stopped autosaving midway through my edit session.)
I followed all the suggestions I could find in forums. I trashed preferences, and I moved all my media into other folders. But the session won't open even far enough that it starts asking for media. When I create a new project and try to import my old edit sequence, dynamic link won't even get to the point where it asks me to select what sequences I want to import. It just sits there forever trying to open the file and can't.
Any suggestions?

Additional info - As I look further into the problem, it's even worse than I thought. The autosave files that say they're from last night are actually referencing work from days ago. So evidently, my auto-save is either putting incorrect time stamps on the files, or the project files are referencing old sequences. Either way, I cannot seem to locate a project file that contains a reasonably recent version of my cut, even though the time/date stamps on the files indicate they shouldn't be that old.
