MSVCR80.dll file missing (after latest iTunes update).  Unable to reinstall iTunes either.  Fixes?

After installing the latest iTunes update, I am unable to open iTunes (The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer).  Plugging in my iDevices won't prompt iTunes to open, either (they are viewed only as mass storage devices).  I attempted to reinstall iTunes, but recieved an error message that said I had insufficient rights to install (I am an administrator).  Is anyone else having similar problems?  Is there a way to fix it that won't include uninstalling the current version of iTunes?  Don't want to lose all my files!  Thanks for a rapid response, Community.  I appreciate all the help I can get.

    Have tried Regcure Pro and that didn't work, either did restoring to an earlier point

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

    Hello emeraldhopes,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:

    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    Best of luck,

    itunes woUld not open. I got the message "MSVCR.dll is missing". I uninstalled and tried to reinstall, but got the message "apple mobile devicE failed to start". any help is appreciated.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I am Using Itunes For Windows and have my entire music library synced on the laptop. When i tried upgrading to the new version i am getting a system error "MSVCR80.dll file missing". My itunes refuses to open.I have many playlists and songs which i want

    1. how Do I solve this issue.
    2. How do I ensure that i do not lose my playlists along with the songs.
    3. What is the procedure needed to be followed.

    Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
    Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
    But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
    If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
    I can't  download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
    You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
    If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

  • Desktop files missing after Mountain Lion update.

    Hi All,
    I work in a research lab at a University, and we ran an update on one of our lab computers [previously on 10.7.4]. Upon updating the OS to Mountain Lion, all of my files were fine, with the exception of the files on the desktop.
    On the HD, there was the newly selected user name [BlankenshipLab], and the old username, which said [JB(deleted)]. I could look into the (deleted) folder, and see subfolders for Desktop, Documents, Movies, etc., etc. But, I couldn't access them, as it said I didn't have permissions. As such, I rooted the new user, and I used the sudo chown -R blankshiplab:staff /Users/JB/Desktop. I used this command on all other subvolumes. When I gained access, the desktop folder, was empty, however. There were old files in the documents and downloads folder that weren't there before, either.
    If anyone could help us recover the missing files, it would be greatly appreciated!
    Best,

    Hi no real idea on this, but many Network connectivity issues have been solved by this...

  • Why did I get error msg that "MSVCR80.dll is missing" when I tried to update iTunes to 11.1.4?  Never had such an issue before when updating iTunes.

    Can anyone help with the question, above?  Why an error msg that "MSVCR80.dll is missing" when attempting to update iTunes to version 11.1.4 on my laptop?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.
