Itunes won't work when I double click on my desk top and it won't update.

I'm having major problems with Itunes. As I stated in my title, I can't open Itunes on the desktop. I get this error message when I try. "This action only valid with products installed." However, it will open up when I connect my IPOD or click on something for it to play. I cannot also go to my files manually on my ipod. It will just sync them up with whatever is new.
When I have tried to update it, or reinstall it, I get this message: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." It tells me to "Click OK to try again, or alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Itunes.msi' in the box below"
I have tried to uninstall ITUNES, but, when I do, I get the error message that I get when I try to update or install itunes.
Can anybody help me?

My won't either. This started with me when I installed the update. I get the message that the file itunes.msi cannot be found. I have even tried to re-install from my original disc and it still cannot find itunes.msi. I have ran the 'find' procedure and my computer cannot find the file. I don't know how to get the file since I have tried installing from the original disc.

  • Itunes has stopped working when I double-click a song

    Well my itunes usually take a while to start up because I've got a lot of music and videos in it, but today it takes no time to start, but when I try to launch a song I get the 'Itunes has stopped working Windows is looking for a solution' message, I repaired it, doesn't work, uninstalled then reinstalled it, doesn't work neither.
    It can't play music, videos or open Apple Store, but otherwise it doesn't crash at all, I can create new playlists etc.
    And when I right click on a song and choose 'obtain information' I get a blank window with normal buttons like 'OK' or 'Cancel' but nothing else, when I click on a button Itunes crash...
    Please!
    I'm running on Windows 7 64bits
    And by the way I made a system clean up yesterday, so it may be caused by this...but how can I undo it :S

    Well it's working fine again.........................................I don't get it - -

  • My screenshots won't open when I double-click them.

    I've had this problem for the past 2 days. When I double click a screenshot in my desktop it won't open. I have to continue clicking it until it opens.
    It's a MacBook Pro w/ Retina 13" - OS X MAVERICKS 10.9.3

    It may be an issue with the trackpad.  Consider a visit to an Apple store genius bar for a FREE evaluation.

  • How can i setup pages to automatically open when double clicked.  Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open.  The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

    Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open.  The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

    Hi Karen,
    Sounds like OS X has lost the association between Pages and its files.
    Start by quitting Pages, then going to Finder.
    In Finder, locate a .pages file. Click on it (once), then press command-I (eye, not one) to Get Info.
    In the Info window that opens, expand the Open With section.
    In this section, click on the pop-up menu and choose Pages (even if Pages is already shown).
    Click the Change All button to associate all files with the .pages extension with Pages.
    Close the info window.
    Double click any .pages file to check that Pages will now launch and open the file.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Why music won't play when i double click on it. software issue? i need help

    When I double click on a song or hit the play button, it doesn't do anything. I had this problem before but it seemed to fix itself after a few days. 2 weeks ago, itunes, along with any type of media on my computer, stopped working again. If I try to play a video in itunes or WMP, it just skips right through in about 3 jumps without any sound. I also can't stream videos on the internet. Dell told me it was a software issue and I had to pay $150 for them to tell me how to fix it. Nonsense. Can anybody help?

  • I just downloaded the itunes 801 setup. When I double click on it, nothing

    I just downloaded itunesSetup 8.02.20. When I double click on it, nothing happens. Running Windows XP on Dell Latitude D800. The hourglass starts then a few seconds later nothing.
    This computer once had itunes but it has been removed. The itunes folder exists in Program Files but only contains itunes,resources.

    Found a fix.
    Based on reading other posts, I tried to remove other apple products, and for each got a message regarding "Windows Installer" was not working etc.
    So downloaded updated version of Windows Installer from MS:

  • Know why Premiere Elements 3.0 won't start when I double click the icon?

    I have Windows Vista 32 bit.  I have Premiere Elements 3.0 and the 3.0.2 patch.  When I double click the icon, it won't load.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the app but it still won't load.  It worked as recently as last week.  I had some virus issues so I took my laptop to Geek squad and they "fixed" the issues.
    I never had this problem with Premiere before.  Anybody know what might be causing it not to start?
    I have been considering an upgrade.  I see that they are up to version 9.  Will version 9 even work on Vista?

    It depends.
    What do you mean by "I never had this problem before"? Do you mean Premiere Elements worked fine until the Geek squad restored your computer?
    Unless they totally wiped your hard drive and reinstalled your operating system, they may have patched but not totally fixed your problem.
    Or it could be that your computer just needs a good cleaning and defragging. Assuming you've got adequate power and a good 30-50 gigabytes of free defragmented space on your C drive.
    But there's a very good chance that, if you've re-installed version 3 and it still won't run, then version 9 won't run either. After all, if you still haven't remedied yoru core problem, a new vehicle isn't likely to make any difference, right?
    Still, there's no harm in trying. Why not download free trial and see?
