ITunes wont work on Windows XP

I had a bad hard drive and lost my itunes, now i download the "fixed" version and it wont even work. It tells me there is a problem, but tech support dosnt do **** w/o me giving them money. If anyone could help me I'd really appreciate it.

The first thing to check is Quicktime, iTunes can't work if Quicktime doesn't.
Open the quicktime player and try playing something.
If Quicktime doesn't work, unistall Quicktime(notiTunes) following the procedure in the next link exactly:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
Then download the stand alone version Quicktime without iTunes and install it. Download from here:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
If Quicktime worked OK then work through this Apple article on iTunes launch failures:

    I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling the program. checked the processes via task manager for itunes exe, it doesn't show up there. I'm almost ready to give up.

    Hello, ColoSanchez.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    I would start by removing iTunes and all of it's components in the order specified of this article.

  • My itunes wont work in WIndows 7.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but it doesnt' work.  It consistently won't open, freezes, or opens and will play songs but only comes up as the shape of itunes in a kinda see thru box. Any tips?

    My itunes won't work on my Windows 7 anymore.  I have already uninstalled and reinstalled SEVERAL times, but to no avail.  It consistantly freezes, won't open or doesn't work correctly.  The only way I can get it to close anymore is to go to the task manager and 'end process' itunes.  I do get an error at the beginning saying " the registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing.  This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software.  Please re-install itunes."  I have searched the internet for possible fixes to no avail.  Please help...anyone!

    Lets see whether this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?

  • Itunes wont work with windows 7

    i tunes wont run on windsws7

    I'm having the same problem with Windows 7.  I'm not sure what information I should post to make diagnosing this problem easier.  (I'm not very tech savy.)  I have a 16GB Itouch and I'm running the 10.4.1 version of Itunes.  I've tried using Itunes' diagnostic tools but it just doesn't see my device.  Any advice?

    many thanks. That's got another possibility ruled out.
    Checking again. When you did your iTunes reinstall, was it a complete iTunes uninstall/reinstall as per the instructions from the following documents?

    Ok, Below is what worked for me somewhat. 
    Okay ... try downloading and saving a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe to your PC from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Now download a trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.php
    Open the iTunesSetup.exe with WinRAR, and try to run the standalone install of Apple Application Support from the AppleApplicationSupport.msi you find in there.
    It works now BUT there are still problems.  It is not allowing or recognizing my Cd/DVD player and i CANT burn.  Looking still for this fix.

  • Itunes wont work anymore...error 7

    My itunes wont work anymore on my latop, i uninstalled it and reinstalled it but when i try to get in to my itunes and error 7 message will pop up saying that it was installed incorrectly and ive installed it several times to find the same thing happening. I dont know what to do anymore so if someone could help me out i would really appreciate it a lot!!!

    I got an upgrade iTunes request from Apple. And upgraded. I should never have done that. Now it says that "iTunes is not properly installed". Other strange messages are also coming up, like missing .dll files etc.
    I have deleted all Apple programs. Used Revo Uninstall that also deletes registry files and left over files. I have used ByeiTunes and Registry mechanic. I have used everything that is suggested on this site:
    http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/23959/completely-remove-itunes-and-other-apple-so ftware-from-a-windows-computer/
    After doing all this, I got the same error message. So what wrong with Apple? When you have bought the product, you are left out in the dark. I have given up. Synchronizing the calendar with Outlook I can do manually, pictures that I have downloaded to my phone, I can access directly, and pictures taken by the phone I have to send to myself through e-mail. Music I never download using iTunes.
    I have had enough. After this and after Apple has changed the plug that leaves me with 8 useless chargers and stands, there will be Samsung next time. I'm running Windows 7, 64 bits.
    Hans (Professor of Marketingy). I wonder if Apple is reading this?

  • Will itunes 11 work with windows xp, I have ended up with this neqw version and it doesn't work , I can look at my library ,but not play and since synching my ipod it is now empty. Apple support is useless, they treat me like I'm on a Mac not a PC .

    will itunes 11 work with windows xp , I have ended up with this new version after accepting an update and now although I can view my library I can't play anything and since synching my ipod it is empty.

  • Since I upgraded Windows Vista to Windows 7 iTunes only works in Windows 7 "Safe Mode".

    Since I upgraded Windows Vista to Windows 7 iTunes only works in Windows 7 "Safe Mode". it will not run in the normal mode. (It ran properly in Vista)  I spent several hours with the Microsoft Technician going through the "1717 suggestions, but to no avail.  On my own, I tried iTunes in Windows 7 "Safe Mode" and was successful!  It ran like a charm.  Unfortunately, I can't run iTunes properly in "Safe Mode"  I have not tried moving one set of the files yet.  But if iTunes works in Safe Mode, do I need to relocate anything or do I need to find what is causing the conflict between Windows 7 and iTunes?

    Which Satellite A205?
    Which Windows 7 (64-bit)? What about the other laptop?
    Which printer model, version, and so forth?

  • Can't get itunes to work for windows xp 64 bit

    I can't get itunes to work for windows xp 64 bit. It won't even download.

    These are the Windows requirements according to the iTunes dpownload site http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes/download/http://:
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later; 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    xp 64 bit is not mentioned but it doesn't seem to be supported for the latest ITunes so it seems that you're out of luck.
