Itunes wont even open. Double click = hour glass spin then nothing..
I'm having a problem with itunes8. When I doubleclick on the desktop icon, or access itunes from any shortcut or the direct EXE the mouse cursor turns into the hourglas for about 3-5 seconds, goes back to normal cursor, then nothing happens. itunes wont even pop up. I get no error messages, and I DONT get the BSOD like most are reporting problems getting. I get NOTHING at all.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled with the newer updated itunes8 installer and that still will not work. I also had itunes 7.7 downloaded from the other week before 8 was released, it does the same thing. It wont run either..
I was on the line with tech support last night (iphone tech, not itunes tech; they were closed) and we tried removing ALL startup items, installing, ect and it still did not work.
Does anyone have any idea whats up?
Yes, I've tried that guide..
I spent 3 hours with tech support over the last few days and they have no idea what it could be
I've also:
disabled firewalls completely PLUS adding all Apple applications to exception list just in case
done COMPLETE uninstall of ALL apple products plus used microsoft install cleaner then reinstalling
tried booting up with NO startup items whatsoever and no services except microsoft services
Installed quick time separately first, then itunes
tried installing itunes 7.7
I thought MAYBE it was because I'm running a custom version of XP (Bariski edition) so I installed itunes 8 on my other computer which is running the plain old XP SP2 from MS and it actually did the exact same thing. It "pretended" (as i like to say) to load itunes then never popped up.

When i try to boot itunes, screen goes black and a message pops up and says not compatible with the visual elements. how do i fix this? itunes wont even open at this point. please help. thanks
Let's first try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):
iTunes for Windows: How to turn off Compatibility Mode -
my itunes has gotten error 7 (windows error 14001) itunes wont even open it just says itunes was not installed correctly. someone help please
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.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

After downloading 10.4 my itunes wont even open on my computer..we have tried different things to see if it will open, downloaded it again..and still it wont open.
try running as administrator -- a temp solution for me anyway. Waiting for apple to fix whatever this is. At least one other poster here had same problem and "solution" worked for him as well.

When I go to open up Firefox, it does not open no matter what I try It just pops up this box that says Firefox.exe - application error.
Then it says the Instruction at "0x798377a9" referenced memory at "0x798377a9". The memory could not be "written".
Click on OK to termintate the program
What does this mean? And why cant I use Firefox. I can still use internet explorer just fine.

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; InfoPath.1)Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Ok, first of all I have tried EVERYTHING. I've tried reinstalling, uninstalling, redownloading, that anti-spyware program ewido or something? i've tried running Msconfig, I've tried windows compatibility, I've tried deleting the temporary files folder. I've tried removing Quicktime and windows. I've tried installing older versions of Itunes. ITUNES WILL NOT RUN. I just got a brand new Ipod video and I can't put any music on it because i can't install itunes. When I try to open Itunes i get a window saying "ITunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvience."
Now, there is one thing i've noticed if this helps...it does not appear that Quicktime is installed. Its not its own program in the Add/Remove programs list. But there are quicktime processes running in the task manager. Is there any way i can put music on my Ipod without Itunes. I dont care for Itunes, i just want to be able to use my Ipod. Please anyone, any help would be great! I need to figure this out. Thanks

Dell Dimension 8200 Windows XPOne solution is as per roaminggnome's suggestion - copy it from the old computer.
The other way is to get an app such as Senuti (iTunes written backwards...!) and it will let you move music from the iPod to the Mac. -
How can I OPEN files I just downloaded? They're on the DOWNLOADS screen of Firefox but I can't open them even after double-clicking? And they're not on the FOLDERS as well. Even the right-click is not working ... the "open containing folder" does not work.

My iTunes is not working, it wont even open
My iTunes is not working, it wont even open. It bounces up and down and then stops.
Hello Gabriellevanderelst
Start with testing iTunes in a different user on your iMac and see if it opens. You may just need to reinstall iTunes to resolve the issue.

ADE will not download and open the ebook automatially. After locating the .ascm (ebook) file on the hard drive and double clicking on that, it still will not open in ADE.
I did all that and after I close the ADE and double click on the file, ADE opens right up and it looks like it is downloading (very fast), but nothing shows up in the ADE.
How do I only get emails from you and not all the other people on the discussion?

Right click on the ACSM file or option click and go to Open With and select Other. You can then navigate to your Adobe Digital Editions and set the file to open with that. I would then recommend closing Digital Editions, if you have it open, and try double clicking the file. If Adobe Digital Editions opens then the file association is still correct. If you continue to have difficulties then I would recommend contacting the vendor you obtained the e-book from.

I've just installed CS6 creative suite mainly for photoshop CS6. It comes with camera raw 7.0.something, but need something newer to use my canon 6d. When I download camera raw 8.5 and install the raw converter doesnt work anymore, wont even open or isnt available anymore in the plugin list. Tried to reinstall everything for a few times, but nothing helps.
When I search for updates the raw converter doesnt get update automaticly. Frustrating, is costing me the whole morning.

i cant change my email under settings on my ipod touch it wont even let me click on it any ideas?
To get reid of the Restrictions passcoe you have to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. You should do that anyway since the apps and music (if any) on the iPod do not belong to you. They did not transfer with the purchase of the iPod hardware.
