ITunes won't open on Mac OSX 10.10

I have a new Mac and had never tried to open iTunes until I received an audio file from my son via email.  I was given the option to open it with iTunes but nothing happened when I selected that option.  Then I went to the dock and clicked on the iTunes icon and it did not bounce as the other app icons do when selected.  In the applications folder I clicked on iTunes and still nothing happened.  Any ideas?

Howdy Don,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there may be an issue with a 3rd-party add-on, which is preventing iTunes from opening on your Mac. Try launching iTunes in Safe Mode, as shown in the article linked below.

Also, the article below will walk you through downloading and reinstalling iTunes.

Take care,

  • ITunes won't open after latest OSX update

    AFter latest OSX update iTunes won't open.  Reinstalled iTunes.  Reinstalled OSX update.  When I click on icon in applications or in finder nothing happens.

    This is what worked for me and others--original post found on this thread: Yosemite slow opening and cannot open itunes
    This solved my question by Linc Davis.......
    According to multiple reports on this site, Apple Support has given the following instructions to others who had a similar problem. I can't confirm that this procedure works or that it's necessary, but it won't leave you any worse off than you are now.
    First, back up all data.
    Select the iTunes icon in the Applications folder and open the Info window. Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner to unlock the settings.
    In the Sharing & Permissions section, change the Privilege setting for each Name in the list to Read & Write. Close the window. If the settings aren't visible, click the disclosure triangle on the left so that it points down.
    You should now be able to drag the iTunes application to the Trash and empty. Your iTunes data won't be affected.
    Click the iTunes link at the top of this page, download the installer package and run it.
    If iTunes still doesn't launch, or if you can't complete the procedure, reinstall the OS.

  • Why won't iTunes won't open on mac mini?

    Recently installed 2 gigs memory in my 2007 mac mini, wiped the hard drive, and installed OS x 10.6.4.( done at the apple store ) iTunes icon appears in applications but won't open when clicked. Help. I'm an old guy and not very computer savvy

    You do not have to load the airport utility.. a newer version is already included on the computer.
    Just go to the applications / utility directory and start airport utility.

    same frustrating situation here...nothing so far has worked...has anyone gotten any closer to a solution?
    so far i:
    - trashed my iTunes prefs
    - deleted and re-installed iTunes
    - re-installed the 10.6.7 update

  • Captivate 5.5 won't open in Mac OSX 10.9.1!...

    ...Is there any solutions to this problem, other than buying an expensive upgrade to the software?

    I have the same question.  Why doesnt Adobe do anything to update their 5.5 Captivate software so it continues to work with the most recent OS update?   What about offering a discount to 5.5 license owners so they could update to version 7 at a reduced cost?  I don't see any communication from Adobe about the problem or a solution.

  • 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 downloading last update. Error message says "not supported by this type of Mac"

    Downloaded latest iTunes update. Now iTunes won't open, and the error message says "You can't open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac." I have been using this MAc since 2008. Any suggestions appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It's a common problem that some users have after installing the most recent iTunes. Download and install again iTunes 11.0.3 to solve that problem > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1614

  • ITunes 10.5 won't open on Mac

    I downloaded the 10.5 update to MacBook but now iTunes won't open at all.  It generates a crash report each time I try to reopen the software.  I've rebooted, downloaded anew and reinstalled.  I haven't tried a full uninstall and reinstall yet, I'm hoping there is a solution short of that.  Thanks.

    I am experiencing the same thing this morning on Snow Leopard after Security Update + iTunes 10.5 update + Aperature update. It has completely disabled not only iTunes, but also Skype, Adium, and Google Chrome. My Mac is pretty much unable to communicate with the outside world as a result of this. Can anyone help?

  • Safari and itunes won't open

    I was using my mac 3 days ago and everything was fine, then comcast had a internet problem and I lost service for 3 days now I have internet but safari and itunes won't open the icon bounces once and then nothing. I have removed them from the dock, and removed them from the app folder, I also removed the plist and cache files from the home directory. Using firefox I tried to download new copies of them both and nothing new appears on my desktop. I have run the hardware test utility on my osx discs and everthing checks out ok. I am so frustrated, this is the first real problem with my mac since I got it 2.5 years ago. thanks in advance

    ok here is an update, I repaired permissions in disk utility with my boot disk, then verified the volume and the volume had errors. I tried to repair the volume and disk utility said I had sibling errors and could not repair. I had an appointment with the genius bar and they determined that with the unrepairable errors on the drive an erase and install was necessary, after coming to grips with this reality I decided to backup everything and do the reformat and upgrade to leopard. I can honestly say that the genius bar person was very courteous and professional. They allowed me to stay at the bar while backing up my files onto my lacie external drive and then installed a new copy of leopard from their lacie drive (after I paid for my copy of leopard) which took 20 minutes instead of 2 hours. I am frustrated that I had to do this whole process and the genius bar employee could not tell me why it happened but the system is working great and I am enjoying the new operating system.

  • ITunes won't open after installing update for 10.4

    I updated my iTunes to the most recent version and restarted my computer. When my computer turned back on, I tried to open iTunes but it just keeps giving me the "The application iTunes quit unexpectedly" message and asks me to either ignore report or relaunch. Every time I click relaunch, the message comes up again. My OS is Mac OSX Version 10.5.8. Anyone know what to do?

    hello Nevada!
    After installing the latest itunes update, itunes
    won't open at all. I click on it and it just won't
    open.
    are you getting an error message? if so, what does it
    say?
    or are you getting no error messages whatsoever? if
    so, could you let us know the results of the
    following observations?
    reboot your PC. open Task Manager to the Processes
    Tab. now try to launch itunes again.
    does an itunes.exe process appear in Task Manager? if
    so, does it persist in there, or does it disappear
    after a few seconds?
    love, b
    b noir - i have been following your advice and i want to thank you for taking your time to try and solve these problems for ipod users.
    i have been following this message board each day for the past week - ever since my iTunes stopped working. i have not yet seen anyone who is receiving the same error message as myself.
    like most others, i downloaded the recent update for iTunes - since then, iTunes will not open. i have tried most of the other proposed solutions to no avail, such as downloading a stand-alone version of quicktime, making sure my msconfig start-up has the correct check marks, etc.
    the iTunes set-up completes with no problem - i have tried installing by saving the file to my hard drive and then running and also by running the program straight from the download window. same results.
    once i go to open iTunes, i receive the following error message: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. if you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. Please tell Microsoft about this problem." Then I click "Send Error Report" just hoping I will receive a required update to make this work.
    i was wondering if you could attempt to help me resolve this issue? i have my music saved to my external hard drive, so i am in no danger of losing my music. however, i need to open iTunes to update my iPod.
    thanks in advance for your help.

  • ITunes won't open after upgrading to 11

    My girlfriend's iPad mini is disabled, so I'm trying to connect it to her old macbook (10.6.8), the one which it is associated with.  Upon plugging in the iPad, I was prompted to update iTunes, because the iPad is running iOS 7 and needs the latest version of iTunes.  I said ok, and iTunes upgraded to 11.
    Now, iTunes will not start.  When i click on the icon, it bounces once and then nothing else happens.  I've tried restarting, creating new accounts, and deleting all the com.apple.itunes preference files, but it's not working.  What the ****?  I can't undisable the iPad because iTunes won't start.  How do I fix this?

    After updating to OSX 10.9.3, my iTunes won't open. If I try to drag it to trash, I get the message "iTunes can't be modified or deleted because it is required by OS X".

  • Itunes won't open, won't force quit, won't anything

    This problem started about a month ago and now it's critical.
    When I click the itunes icon, it bounces and then freezes. itunes won't open. It also won't force quit. I can't shut down because, it says, itunes won't quit. I have to hold down the power button 7 seconds to shut down and then restart. My IT guy at work (who is a Mac person) showed me how to repair permissions and the first half dozen or so times this happened, that worked. Now it won't. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. I've tried reinstalling and repairing permissions. I've rebooted and repaired and reinstalled.
    This is the kind of thing I switched from PCs to get away with.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I really need to be able to use itunes.
    Thanks,
    Teresa

    Here are some basic to try in turn, see if any one will help:
    Ensure that you have the latest version of the OS and Quicktime and iTunes.
    1. Delete the com.apple.iTunes.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    2. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
