Latest version of itunes / quick time will not start on my computer
Folks,
I downloaded the latest version of iTunes recently. However whenever I try to run Itunes nothing happens. I tried running Quick Time and get a warning that "a buffer overun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state". I have searched the Aplle site but have not found any soluitions to my problem. I am beggining to have regrets on forking out 259 quid on a product from a manufacturer who seems to offer poor after sales service support
Can one of you gurus out there be able to assist me? Cheers.

Go to your applications folder and start iTunes from there. If that works you need to drag the application to the Dock.

I have downloaded the most recent version of Itunes on my pc running Vista 32 . When I click on the icon nothing happens. Same thing when I go to the program and click. I have removed the software and reloaded it twice and it continues not to work. Please advise how I may be able to solve this problem?
Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator"

After downloading the latest version of iTunes, the store will not load. It appears as if it has loaded, but the screen remains blank.
I have the same problem and have been fighting with it for several days. I think the last thing that I did before this happened was to let Quicktime update itself. When I open itunes and click on store, the connecting bar gets halfway and then stops. That leaves me with the white store page, if I leave it alone for a bit, I see words as in names of singers and but no pictures.
I have ran the diagnostics and see no problems at all, no event logs in windows, no errors at all. I've un-installed itunes and re-installed but no change. I'm using Norton 360 from comcast. I have windows 7 pro 64 bit. Also, the help in itunes doesn't display.
I put in a ticket with apple and the response I got back basically told me to do what I've already done. I created a new user and have the same issue.
Any help at all will be very much appreciated. I think this started August. 8, 2011.
thanks so much for reading -

Checked for updates and tried to download latest version of itunes but it will not install
Please help !!!
I have had itunes installed for years but allof a sudden, when I try to complete an action (create a playlist for example) I get an error message
"Itunes has stopped working and must close"
I searched for updates and tried to install the latest vesion of itunes but it will not install - error message just says " failed to install correctly, try reinstalling"
What has gone wrong and what do I need to do ???
Fingers crossedSolving the iTunes Installation Problems in Windows
1. Apple has posted their solution here: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows- Unable to install or open - MSVCR80 issue.
2. If the Apple article does not fully resolve the problem for you, then try Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates - MSVCR80. -

The latest version of itunes (8.0) will not burn cds for me
Ive been able to burn a few but the majority of the time Im just wasting cds. I click burn disc, insert blank disc, the mac then checks playlist. Then it says its writing playlist, but nothing happens. It sounds like the mac is working on it and when I cancel the burn it takes FOREVER for it to spit the cd back out. Can I just download the last version I had somehow? Im not liking this one.
Hello,
It's important to keep your system software up to date. You indicated you are running 10.4.7. You need to be on 10.4.11. Go to System Preferences/Software Update and follow the instructions.
After your updates are finished, close Software Update from the Menu Bar, File/Quit. Next, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Disk Utility is in your Applications/Utilities folder. Launch DU, select MactinoshHD 10.4.x in the panel on the left, then select the FirstAid tab, then click:
Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished, Quit Disk Utility. Reboot your Mac, launch iTunes and try to burn a CD.
Also, if the above does not help, try this: Quit iTunees. Locate this file: com.apple.iTunes.plist
it's here: /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to your Desktop. Launch iTunes and see if you can successfully burn to a CD. If you can, drag that .plist file to the Trash, empty the Trash, and reboot. It just means your iTunes preference file was corrupted.

I keep having the message the software required for communicating with your ipad is not installed correctly please reinstall, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of itunes 8 times and no luck does anyone have any advice?
First, for the forum view issue. Go to My Settings (on the right) and in General Settings change the Topic Page View to Flat. Click Save. Posts should show up in the order they were written.
Have you seen this?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93764
Also, since you said that you've gone through the 5 Rs, I would assume that you used the iPod Updater to restore (since there is no other way of doing it and you don't "run" the 5 Rs).
When you restored, did you use the latest updater?
You may also want to try formatting the iPod through Windows. Connect it to the computer and when it appears in My Computer right click it and go to format. Does anything happen? Can you format the iPod through Windows?

When downloading the latest version of Itunes, the software is not accessible anymore and Itunes seems to need to be reinstalled. How do I ensure the Itunes music is not lost and my pc is still recognized by Itunes store?
Crikey. Okay, that's part of the Gracenote SDK (that iTunes uses to go online to get album and track information for imports).
Let's take the message at it's word. If the file is damaged, we may be able to get past this by removing it from the iTunes program files and then doing a repair install of iTunes.
In Computer, open Local Disk C:\ (or whichever drive you've got your program files installed on).
If you've got a 32-bit version of Vista, open the "Program Files" folder.
If you've got a 64-bit version of Vista, open the "Program files (x86)" folder.
Open the "iTunes" folder.
Drag the gnsdk_sdkmanager.dll file out of the folder and onto your Desktop.
Restart the PC. Head into your Uninstall a Program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
Does the repair install go through properly? If so, can you launch iTunes now? -
error message: itunes library .itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version. I downloaded and in stalled the latest version of itunes and it did not help. What now?
Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:
Troubleshooting iTunes installation on Mac OS X -
I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see. The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video. What can I do to be able to get these videos? I have all ready download Adobe Flash Player and installed it but it has not effect.
Get Flip4Mac (for Windows Media videos):
http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv
And Perian for everything else:

You should be able to play most videos with QuickTime player once both are installed. -
How do I delete files on my iPod second gen? This is a NEW problem I have only had with the latest version of iTunes. I have not changed libraries. All files are grayed out. I have already read related posts in the iTunes community.
Thanks but I had already read this, and it was no help at all. Under the Summary tab, "Options", there is no check-box to manually manage my stuff. I suspect this is because it is a 2nd gen iPod, with ONLY manual management. The only way to delete my stuff seems to be to reset the entire device.
I like to listen to podcasts. What is particularly frustrating is that the 4th gen shuffle CANNOT play podcasts, but ONLY music, which I discovered after a lot of research and multiple visits to an Apple store. So I have to resort to an older version of the shuffle to play podcasts And now with the latest version of iTunes there seems to be no way to delete any podcasts on the older version. Apple just makes it harder and harder for us podcast-lovers, driving us away from Apple -- driving me away from the entire brand and from ALL Apple devices, not just iPod. -
My computer is updated but my quick time will not play a mov. file that i exported from final cut on a different Mac , what is the problem?
Final Cut adds some codecs that are not part of normal OS X. If your movie uses one of these codecs it won't play on a system that does not have Final Cut.
Adding these codecs may help:

I recently updated my iPhone to IOS 8 and it said I need the latest version of iTunes to sync and back up however my computer won't allow it what do I do !?? Anything helps!!!
If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?
