Itunes won't open...error 2206
I have tried to uninstall and to reinstall...still won't open.
Any suggestions so i can use my itunes library again?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
Or roll back to the previous build:
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

Does anyone know what this error code means?My itunes will not even open, no matter how many times i downlaod and restore it??? "The procedure entry point xmlITexTextReaderName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dlll." Please let me know if your know anything! It is greatly apprecitated!
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (Although the procedure is for Vista and 7 and you've got XP, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

What's wrong with my Mozillla? Help!!!!
I've tried re-installing and installing it back, but failed =(You should still have the older version of Firefox (the beta installs alongside the older version). Check under add/remove programs. If you do, just locate the .exe in program files under Mozilla, and create a shortcut.

When you gte requests to locate iTunes.msi like this, the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility usually fixes it.
Here is a method for removal, clean up and reinstall of iTunes.
== uninstall with cleanup ==
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Save the files on your PC.
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
(To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

Hi, i cannot activate my iphone 3Gs i tried many times using wifi and connect. to itunes but activtion is always failed. can you help me to fix this problem?
Do you have a SIM in the phone?
A SIM is required to activate it.
If you DO have a SIM in it, the most common cause of this problem is a phone that was hacked to illegally unlock it and has been updated or restored. -
I installed 4.0 and now firefox will not open, though it is running, I have uninstalled and re-installed and it still will not open. Not sure why this is happening
If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.

ITunes won't open - error message
When I try and launch iTunes I get this error message: "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder." I have since unistalled and reinstalled V 11. I have also been given admin rights to my machine. I have given myself full rights to this folder. It still won't open. Now I have unistallaed it again and reinstalled V. 10. Same error message. I ran the compaibility report and it say there is an incompatible device but doesn't say which one. Any ideas? I am on a Windows 7 Fujitsu laptop. I had no problems with it until I upgraded recently to V. 11.

The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

My itunes account wouldn't open, so I had to uninstall and re-install. I've done this 3 times with an error popping up everytime that "Quick time failed to initialize". The message then suggests I uninstall itunes and reinstall. If I click on Quicktime, independently, it opens right up with no problem. What can I do?

Get a message on Itunes to uninstall and re-install Itunes since " Apple Application Support is required" Will this cause me to lose all records? Is there some to avoid this have tried to repair No LUCK
Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Itunes won't open error code 5,87
My itunes was working fine, and then I downloaded the latest version of Itunes and it won't open. It keeps saying "Dr. Watson was unable to attach to the process. It is possible that process exited before Dr. Watson could attach to it. Windows 2000 returned error code=5...access is denied"...before it said error code 87...now it says error code 5...I've tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling but it doesn't work! Please help! I desperately want my Itunes back!
okay ... that rules out various problems with DrWatson that i was able to find in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
let's try something aimed at trying to work out what the nature of the itunes problem is (the one that DrWatson is having trouble with).
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?) -
Itunes won't open 'error: new itunes library'
My itunes was playing up.
Not recognising my iphone 4s.
It then told me I had to install the new itunes to make m iphone compatible with the computer.
I did so and now the itunes will not open saying "Error: New Itunes Library' WHY?!? This is really frustrating me!!
Thanks.georgiamomma -
There are a few things you could try,but what worked for me was to download a fresh installation file from apple.
Your update got corrupted somehow. Doing the usual of going to control panel, clicking on Programs and Features, clicking on iTunes in the list and selecting REPAIR probably won't fix this issue, as sometimes repair reverts the installation to its previous version and then your iTunes Library.itl file can't open because it's from a newer version than the one REPAIR reinstalled. You can try that process, but I doubt it will work.
Do not change any files and/or their existing locations. Also, do not uninstall iTunes from your machine. Simply go to Apple's web site and download their latest version suitable for your particular computer. Once downloaded, double click the installer and follow the prompts. You should be able to launch itunes afterward, and your library will magically re-appear.
Again, DO NOT uninstall the old version, and do not rename, remove and/or replace any of the original files prior to installing the latest version over what's already on your machine. Good luck! -
Itunes won't open, error 14001.
It says to reinstall it, yet I've done this countless times along with quicktime and all other apple related products but it still won't work.
I have tried to repair mobile device support, but it says there was a "fatal error during installation".
I am at a loss as to what to do now, any help would be appreciated.Hey Carolefromthelou,

When I start iTunes I get this error: iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration.
What do I need to do?Usually this issue is caused by quicktime. Try opening Quicktime and see if you recieve any errors.
Try uninstalling iTunes AND quicktime, then disable antivirus and security programs and reinstall iTunes from apple.com
If that doesn't work try the stand alone version of quicktime here http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html -
Itunes won't open-error-says Itunes has stopped working
I can't open Itunes--it keeps saying it has stopped working and it tries to find a solution. Then it shuts down and nothing happens. I have uninstalled and redownloaded it but same problem.
Restart your computer.
Disconnect your computer from the internet and see if you can open iTunes without crash.
if iTunes does open, go to iTunes Menu Edit > Preferences, "Advanced" tab and click the "Reset Cache" button, OK.
Now, use Windows Explorer to delete the contents of Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Download
You may now re-connect your internet then see if you can open iTunes without issues.
