  • Itunes wont open and I get an error message

    I'm really confused by whats going on with my itunes. It was working ok then I went to open it and it didnt open. An error message pops up saying: Itunes cannot open because it has detected an error with your audio configuration. I tried going into control panel audio section but there wasnt anything there to help me. So hopefully someone here can help. Thank you SO much

    Does this link help?

  • ITUNES WONT OPEN OR REINSTALL!!  PLEASE HELP!!

    Everytime I try to open my itunes I get a pop-up saying
    "QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuickTime version 7.1.3 or later.
    Please reinstall iTunes."
    This message also appears whenever I try to update my itunes or reinstall it. Can someone please help me??

    Go here. Da Gopha, "iTfW: stepwise clean uninstallation of iTunes", 09:51am Apr 5, 2005 CDT and do a stepwise clean uninstallation of iTunes. That might help. Sometimes extra hidden files can muck up an installation.

  • Itunes wont open after reinstalling new version

    Any ideas on how I can get itunes to open up after installing new versions of it and quicktime?

    hi keymobfan!
    I think I have seen your replies on other threads. Thanks for trying to help. Is there any way to get a group answer to these questions instead of each one of us with an individual thread?
    fair question. for some problems (like chkdsk) a consolidated thread approach is helpful (although Da Gopha would be the best authority on whether or not that's the case). but in practice (with the launch errors) it's best to treat the different cases individually and in independent threads.
    there are several different reasons. here are a few of the main ones.
    (1) there are two major classes of "launch failure" problems: ones where you get an error message and ones where you don't. sensible everyday-folks typically use the same language to describe the problems, and often don't provide details which would let you work out which class of problems are in play. So, since the treatments for different error messages differ, and also differ from the treatments for the error-less ones, we usually have to check at least once to work out what's going on.
    (2) even if we work out that it's (say) an errorless launch failures, there are (currently) three main causes of errorless launch failures. the treatments for each of those three (not to mention the rarer possibilities) are radically different, and some of them are fairly involved. so we typically need to do some diagnostic work to work out what is going on in each case.
    (3) sometimes it takes a while (several posts back and forth) to work out what's going on. and more often than not (in multiperson threads) where people are all saying they have the same problem, there turns out to be different problems in play ... and the diagnosis and treatment work for one person ends up being irrelevant (and occasionally inadvisable) for other people in the thread. and every single one of those "irrelevant" posts generates an email notification to the other people in the thread. so people end up accidentally spamming each other in those big consolidated threads.
    (4) even when it is clear that there is more than one different problem going on in a thread, you'll still get people leaping into the thread to say "i've got the same problem!" and nothing more (generating another email notification), and with no clear indication (or no indication whatsoever) as to what problem they might have, or at what stage of the diagnosis/troubleshooting process they might be at. so if we were going to deal with them in that thread, we would have to start the diagnostic procedure (generating more email notifications) ...
    (5) typically at this stage of proceedings, people start posting in the big threads saying that they can't follow what is going on, because navigation is difficult (generating a new email notification). there's a tendency also for new posters who aren't familiar with the way the reply controls work (and can't really be blamed for that) to post in inappropriate places in "sub-strands" in the threads, making navigation even more difficult.
    (6) if you're one of the "advice providers" unfortunate enough to have a good reputation in the forums, and you're spending a lot of time in a particular huge and unweildy thread trying to fix some problems, and people notice that you're posting a lot in there, they have a tendency to threadjack in there in order to try to get your attention, no matter what problem they may happen to have (generating more email notifications) ...
    (7) launch problems evolve over time for us, so the fact that a treatment protocol worked and was appropriate for some people at the beginning of a thread is no guarantee that it will help people posting in later. (the NIS 2005 and Ipod Service Errors are two classic examples of that that i can recall.) so it's helpful to let some possible treatments die, so you're not having to say, "no, you should actually do this nowadays" all the time.
    and so on, and so on, and so forth ... i could go on, but i'm just getting depressed even thinking about this at the moment. (which is a bad thing. i don't want to have to change my Zoloft dosage again. the transitional effects compromise my ability to give advice.)
    so, do a search on "post new topic" constrained by the alias "b noir" and you'll see (probably) dozens of "start your own thread please" posts in recent weeks. on due consideration, i decided it was the better way to approach these problems.
    love, b

  • Itunes wont open, encountered problem and send error report

    Everytime i try to open windows, it says that itunes has encoutered a problem and needs to close. it has the send error report message too. please someone help

    Meaghan, I already responded to your topic. Plus, it is simply not good to bury your post in other people's topics, and just for the future, if you have a problem without a good answer, don't post what has already been said in a thread. I know, the discussions take a little getting used to, but it is easy to get the hang of it after a couple of visits. You'll get it sooner or later. I know you will.

  • RE: Itunes wont open, encountered problem and send error rep

    I need help with my itunes. it will not open, and it seems like u could help me. i really want to open it up, but whenever i click on it, nothing ever shows up. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Meaghan, try opening your Quicktime. If it is searching for the Quicktime file, go here and download the Quicktime Standalone version. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html Then try opening your iTunes.

  • ITunes wont open only error message

    iTunes wont open I only get an error message that reads. "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the My Music folder" My music is on an exernal hard drive and it worked before I upgraded and now it wont work.
    Please help

    hiya!
    it's best to leave the "My Music" folder on the C drive. it's a Windows special folder, so having it out on an external can cause weird problems if (say) the drive letter assignment for the external drive changes.
    okay, here's the best place to start:
    iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
    ... but if you run into the complication where "My Music" doesn't appear as an option in TweakUI, try the alternate technique from the following Nigel Carpenter post:

  • Itunes wont open at all, error message : quicktime was not found .... please reinstall ... i did that but no luck this only seems to have happened since the 10.4 update, im on windows 7 ..

    itunes wont open at all, error message : quicktime was not found .... please reinstall ... i did that but no luck this only seems to have happened since the 10.4 update, im on windows 7 ..

    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.

  • It wont let me download itunes, it keeps saying error. How do i fix it?

    it wont let me download itunes, it keeps saying "error". How do i fix it?

    You say "It won't let me download iTunes ...".  I cannot imagine what you mean.  What does "It" mean?
    iTunes is a part of iOS on your iPhone.  If your iPhone can turn on, iTunes is already there.  You cannot separately download iTunes to iPhone; you would have to update iOS to get a fresh copy.

    See the advice given in the user tip:Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for a very workable approach.

    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) release as a workaround for 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.
    Regarding AMDS failures there is a hint in another thread that disabling the Windows Firewall before attempting to reinstall may help, otherwise take a look at the steps outlined in this post. Re: Can't install iTunes 12.1 on Windows 7 64-bit. I know they look a little daunting, but the process of generating the logs themselves isn't that hard to do. Extracting useful information from them is still a challenge but maybe something will leap out. If you want to post the log for the failed components for me to have a look at here or in the other thread please edit out any personal information, particularly your email address, first.
