Music folder won't open after using iTunes

Hello all, I hope I put this in the right forum.
I'm running iTunes version 6 at the moment.
Yesterday I was dragging and dropping music out of an mp3 folder into iTunes, at one point it quit working and now I can't double click on the folder to open it, however I can still right click and explore it.
Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks

Tried that, it's weird in the fact that it's only that one folder that does it now.

Aperture library won't open after using new iphoto

My Aperture library won't open after accidently using iphoto to view it. It says Aperture is outdated but I run 3.4.5 version which is the last.
Now I CAN'T DO MY WORK thanks to this lunacy.
Anyone any suggestions how to fix this ****?

Also one more thing
On the MacBook Air - Where aperture is working fine and loading the library, i tried to change the name of the library and then when I tried to open it it shouted with the error ""Error Opening Library--The library could not be imported because it is from an out of date version of Aperture 3. Please upgrade the library to the latest version of Aperture 3 and try again""
But when I changed the name back it was working fine again on the MacBook AIr
Should i be worried that when i look at the get info on my library it says it's an aperture library 3.5.1 ?

Music Store won't open after my newest upgrade

Hi!
I downloaded the newest upgrade of iTunes and now my Music Store stuff won't work. I didn't change any login information, etc. What is going on????? Please email me at [email protected], if you'd like. Also, please feel free to answer this like I'm a total moron. I'm not good with technical terms, etc., so I won't be offended if you do. LOL.

'The network connection timed out' can have many causes.
iTunes can't connect to the Music Store after having tried for a number of times.
This document describes a number of possible causes and fixes:
iTunes Music Store: "Cannot connect to the Music Store" error
What happens if you try to connect to the Music Store from within Safari?
Go to this page http://www.apple.com/itunes/ and command-click on one of the songs in the 'Top 10 Songs' pane.
Safari will attempt to open the link in a new tab, but as it is a link to the Music Store, it will open iTunes and go to the Store.
If you use another browser, you can normaly control-click a link and choose to open it in a new tab or new window.

Pictures in gallery won't open after using MediaShare to upload to a PC

I have a Motorola Droid 2 Global, and recently uploaded pictures to the computer using Media Share, and a USB connection. After I did that, in my Gallery, I can see the thumbnails of my photos on my phone, but if I tap the picture to open it, it shows an empty movie reel picture, and I cannot access the picture. If I plug the USB back in, and copy/paste pictures just that way, I can get the pictures on my computer. BUT I just want to have the pictures on my phone, and be able to open them on my phone.
HELP!

LovebugKZ, thank you for sharing your concerns about your gallery. I would suggest trying a few basic troubleshooting steps first like power cycling the phone, if you haven't already. Next, clear the data/cache from your Gallery. This will not erase any pictures, as they are stored on your SD card.
Please let us know if you need further assistance.

My music app won't open after updating to iOS5

It was fine yesterday after updating to iOS 5, but this morning after removing some songs and changing some album info, it suddenly wouldn't open on my iPhone anymore, I'll press it and it opens to a white screen then suddenly closes, anybody know how to fix it?

Thanks for the feedback. This is a custom enterprise application. So there is not an update yet. It will take our developer a little time to get it IOS 5 compatiable. So unless I can change the IOS we can't use application until we get upgrade of the custom app.

Illustrator CS5 won't open after using trial version of CC

I tried the CC version of Illustrator and once it expired, I am now unable to open any of my files from my previous CS5 version . Message
I get is --quote: This is an Adobe Illustrator file that was saved without pdf content. To place or open this file in another application,
it should be re-saved from Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF compatible file" option turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native
Format options dialog box which appears when saving an Illustrator file using the Save As command---end quote.
I am not trying to open the files in another application. I'm trying to open them in Illustrator CS5. Since I'm unable to re-save the files,
I can't turn on the Create PDF compatible file option. None of my files will open.
Can someone help?

The Illustrator file format is not downwards compatible.
You would have needed to save the files to the CS5 version.

ITunes won't open after OS update to Yosmite

ITunes won't open after OS update, ITunes has been updated, it won't open or bounce. It will not allow me to move it to trash or reinstall it. I have already updated to OS X Yosmite two times as directed by apple, I have rebooted in safe made as well as Command/Option/P/R before start up. I have opened console/system log to see if there is anything going on but when I click on Itunes nothing happens, not even so much as half a line of script. I'm stumped. If I wanted someone to tell me to turn it off and on again I'd just watch IT Crowd. please help

Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
If you head into your applications folder and locate iTunes. Right click iTunes and show package contents. In there there will be a contents folder --> MacOS --> double click on the iTunes terminal icon. This should force iTunes to open via a terminal window and at the very least it will tell you what it is getting stuck on.

ITUNES music store won't open

After doing a clean install on my mac mini, the only problem is with ITunes. The music store won't open, states to make sure my internet connection is open and active, which it is.

The iTunes store seems to be stuggling a bit today under the weight of demand. Uninstalling itunes and installing won't help. Use patience, try later...
Why would you delete your songs?

ITunes won't open after update; MacBook Pro, Mac OSX 10.6.8, iTunes version 11.1.5

iTunes won't open after update - help, please; MacBook Pro, Mac OSX 10.6.8, iTunes version 11.1.5.

i had a problem similar to yours and better yet, i have the fix for it. i downloaded maverick 4 months ago and was without itunes ever since. all itunes icon did was bounce. itunes would never open and whats more, is when i would try to update it, i would get a "thank you for downloading itunes!" page , but the download would never work. so i scoured the net for solves. nothing that worked. <4 months later> then last night i took a new approach. i decided even though maverick would not allow me to uninstall itunes, i would find a way to uninstall itunes. then i would reinstall back to 11.1.5 i was successful and heres what i did.
step one-
Back up your iTunes Library.itl file, found under ~/Music/iTunes
(even tho i didnt, i only had 3 artists in there at the time. and they didnt get erased but i advise you back up just in case.)
step two-
download itunes 10.7 from apple. i used this link Download it from Apple here
(i pulled the link from Aarons website (awesometast.com). you download 10.7 however you want but i used the link above and have had no issues).
although im not sure you need to do this step ( you may be able to download 11.1.5 itunes without 10.7, i did because i was following intructions from http://awesometoast.com/downgrading-to-itunes-10-7-from-itunes-11-on-osx/
step 3-
open Terminal
step 4-
enter in these 3 commands hitting return after each line. 1st line nothing seems to happen, 2nd line nothing seems to happen and 3rd line gives you a warning and requires password to continue. when i did it, my password didnt appear as i entered it and i hit return without looking, so i entered it in again, although im not sure i had to the 2nd time.
killall iTunes
killall "iTunes Helper"
sudo rm -rf /Applications/iTunes.app/
step 5-
drag off and dump the itunes icon (which now has the ? shadow in it) off your dock.
step 6-
install 10.7 itunes you downloaded earlier. (not sure if this part is neccesary. you may be able to just download 11.1.5 but i downloaded 10.7 because i was following Aarons steps.) itunes now works.
step 7-
go to apple and update to 11.1.5 itunes. install it. open it and you have itunes 11.1.5 in perfect working order. assuming you have a decent internet speed for the downloads, the whole process takes very little time.
with those steps above, you can solve itunes just bouncing and not launching issues and also the "thank you for downloading" and nothing downloads issue. enjoy. also i would like to give a shout out to http://awesometoast.com and thank Aaron for the knowledge that enabled me to get itunes back into my life.

ITunes won't open after latest OSX update

AFter latest OSX update iTunes won't open. Reinstalled iTunes. Reinstalled OSX update. When I click on icon in applications or in finder nothing happens.

This is what worked for me and others--original post found on this thread: Yosemite slow opening and cannot open itunes
This solved my question by Linc Davis.......
According to multiple reports on this site, Apple Support has given the following instructions to others who had a similar problem. I can't confirm that this procedure works or that it's necessary, but it won't leave you any worse off than you are now.
First, back up all data.
Select the iTunes icon in the Applications folder and open the Info window. Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner to unlock the settings.
In the Sharing & Permissions section, change the Privilege setting for each Name in the list to Read & Write. Close the window. If the settings aren't visible, click the disclosure triangle on the left so that it points down.
You should now be able to drag the iTunes application to the Trash and empty. Your iTunes data won't be affected.
Click the iTunes link at the top of this page, download the installer package and run it.
If iTunes still doesn't launch, or if you can't complete the procedure, reinstall the OS.

ITunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution?

iTunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution? And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

It would help to know versions here. I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed. Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago. If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses. Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

When I moved all my music stored in my Windows 7 user account under the My Music folder to my PC's 'Public Music' folder, I could no longer add/delete music or movies to my iPhone using iTunes. How do I fix this?

I have been synching my iPhone with iTunes without problems for a long time. I also used iTunes to add/change/delete Music & Videos on my iPhone with tuch contents from my iTunes Library.
One day, I decided to move all my Music stored on my laptop's Windows 7 User Account under "My Music" to the Windows 7 User "Public" under "Public Music". When I opened iTunes, all my music was gone so I just added the folder "Public Music" to my iTunes Library, iTunes did some work and all my music was then back, listed in my iTunes.
However, when I would synch my iPhone now, when I view the music or movie contents in my iPhone using iTunes, I can no longer ADD Music or Movies to my iPhone and I cannot delete music or movies in my iPhone using iTunes anymore.
How do I fix this? Please help.

Try opening iTunes preferences. Then click on advanced tab. Then uncheck "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library." By default, iTunes copies music to its own media folder when you use iTunes to play the music.

ITunes won't open after downloading 7.0

My iTunes won't open after downloading 7.0, what should I do?

replying to Robert
I get a Windows error code of 0x666D743F
First see:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes fails to launch with an unknown error
There are some other possibilities
That error has been known to be produced by having Total Recorder or the Volume Logic plug-in installed on the PC.
For a workaround for Total Recorder, see:
chuckieb: One fix for iTunes 7 "0x666D743F" error
To check on the Volume Logic issue, see:
Troubleshooting issues with 3rd-party iTunes add-ons
For further possibilities, see other posts in chuckieb’s thread.
