Can you start QuickTime on your computer?
You'll probably have to search for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and use it to remove QuickTime Player and iTunes. Then download and install the iTunes again.

  • My itunes wont open ! No error message

    My itunes wont open ! When I click on the icon nothing opens, not even an error message. Iv tried opening it from Windows Task Manager > Processes > Itunes.exe but nothing seems to work ! Itunes doesnt open when I sync my iphone either ! Please help

    Hi b,
    I think I'm having the same problem as Vanessa (and a lot of others from the sound of it). When I click on my iTunes shortcut the hourglass pops up for a second and then nothing happens. I can't access the music store from the net either (I get a message that says "Loading... Please wait" and then nothing happens). I've turned off my firewall (Norton Personal Firewall 2003)and that didn't help. I tried Lorraine's fix with installing the files in Norton one by one and telling them to be permitted and that didn't work. I also tried a stand alone installation of Quicktime and that helped some (the quickTime player window does now pop up for a split second before disappearing when I click Quicktime) but I still can't access the music store. I thought I'd try your suggestion of looking in the task manager for my itunes.exe file but I can't find the task manager. Where is it?

  • Itunes app wont open keeps saying apple aplication support was not found

    my itunes wont open it keeps saying that apple aplication suppourt was not found

    With the Error 2, 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 suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version). If the following link takes you to the WinRAR home page rather than the WinRAR downloads page, click the Downloads header in the box at the left of the WinRAR home page to see the trial version downloads:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    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, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • ITunes wont open-I get error message...

    Hello,
    I recently built my own computer, and it has been working almost flawlessly for months.
    About a week ago, I installed Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my computer, and suddenly I was not able to open iTunes. I just get the error message that says "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    I have:
    -uninstalled Adobe Photoshop
    -reinstalled iTunes multiple times
    -rebooted
    -copied iTunes program files from working computer
    ^none of the above have worked. Any ideas?
    -Bonbon

    Oops, nevemind, I got it working again. I had installed a crappy codec pack that was obviously interfering with iTunes. I uninstalled the codec pack and, TAADAH!!, it worked.

  • My iTunes will not start.  The box on the error message APSDaemon.exe,  And message says "This application failed to start because MSVC80.dll was not found.  Reinstalling may fix."  I did the reinstall and I get the same error.

    My iTunes will not start.  The box on the error message APSDaemon.exe,  And message says "This application failed to start because MSVC80.dll was not found.  Reinstalling may fix."  I did the reinstall and I get the same error.  The error first happened after I approved the an iTurns update.

    Same problem today. Took five times to reinstall without any error messages. Apple has posted a way to fix and you should follow their's first. I finally got to upldate correctly by doing their fix but with one difference. I did the following:
    1) Went to the C:\program files (x86)\iTunes and C:\program files\iTunes folders and moved every file ending in .dll to the desktop (even if two files in same location had the same name, just replace)
    2) Restarted computer and still got error message
    3) Uninstalled all apple programs possible in the following order......itunes, apples software update, apple mobile device support, bonjour, and apple application support.....all performed using the microsoft control panel
    4) put all the .dll files on the desktop in the trash and emptied (this is a step apple support did not specifically put in their fix but for a final try I wanted to delete everything apple).
    5) Restarted computer.
    6) Re-installed itunes from apple website
    No error messages during re-install and was able to open shortcut in one try. Even updated my ipad to make sure everything was working.

  • Problems opening iTunes after installation - "QuickTime was not Found"

    I am having trouble opening iTunes. Both iTunes and Quick time will download and install and I can open QuickTime without a problem, but when I open iTunes, I get the following error:
    Open iTunes and an error opens:
    "QuickTime was not found. QuickTime is required to run iTunse. Please uninstall iTunes and then install iTunes again."
    I only have trouble when I am at home and not connected to my work network. I was able to start iTunes yesterday while in the office, but all my music is on my external hard drive at home. Not helpful!
    I have tried about everything - uninstalled, reinstalled itunes and quick time, disabled bonjour, disabled the startup files, etc. I am still not having any luck.
    Any suggestions?

    Both iTunes and Quick time will download and install and I can open QuickTime without a problem, but when I open iTunes, I get the following error:
    A bit unusual.
    Did you do the QuickTime/iTunes install at work?
    Is QuickTime still launching when you get the PC home?
    (Wondering if something relating to the network at work have done odd things to QuickTime or iTunes registry entries ... possibly iTunes is looking for QuickTime on the wrong drive when you get the PC home, for example.)

  • When I try to access iTunes Store I get an error message stating feature not available in the uk store

    when I try to access iTunes Store I get an error message stating feature not available in the uk store

    Exact same thing is happening to me. Couldn't find where to view the Itunes version number after a quick look. I hate the "simplified" interface by the way. On windows 8.1. Really starting to hate itunes, very buggy, and apple device locked down content (I'm looking at you TV shows and Movies) make it a pain to use.
