ITunes won't open after installation

I realize many have had the same problem of not being able to open iTunes after installing the 7.2 upgrade. However, I haven't gotten an error message at all, it just won't open. Quicktime is working fine. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

It appears and then disappears after a few seconds.
okay. this (in conjunction with your other symptoms) is sounding like a digital signing issue with drivers on your PC that i've been seeing since the late iTunes 6.0.x days.
try running through the "Resolution" section from the following document:
Detecting digital signing issues in Windows XP
does your itunes start launching again?
(if so, it might be a good idea to download fresh definitions and run some vigorous spyware and virus scans. the initial deregistering of the dlls can be caused by malware.)

Quicktime 7.1.1 won't open after installation

I-tunes and Final Cut Pro won't open either. I just get the spinning wheel of death.
I've deleted and re-installed it twice, repaired permissions and even tried to install an older version of Quicktime to get my system back. Does anyone know what is happening here? I just upgraded the OS to 10.3.9.
Dual 1Ghz G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Should you need Quicktime 7, a Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard-compatible version of QuickTime Player 7 is also available for use with older media or with existing AppleScript-based workflows. QuickTime Player 7 can be used to playback formats such as QTVR, interactive QuickTime Movies, and MIDI files. Also, it supports QuickTime 7 Pro registration codes for access to QuickTime Pro functionality.
To install the QuickTime Player 7 from the Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD:
Insert your Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Install DVD.
Open the Optional Installs folder and double-click "Optional Installs.mpkg".
Select the QuickTime 7 option and click Continue.
QuickTime Player 7 will be installed in your Utilities folder.
Note: If you double-click any media that requires QuickTime Player 7 for playback and it is not already installed, you will be asked if you want to download it from Apple.
Hope this going to solve your problems.

Lightroom CC won't open after installation

CC update installed new version of Lightroom today, but it won't open. Not even by trying to run the lightroom.exe file directly. Bridge and PS work properly.
Windows 8.1, i7 processor, 16gb ram, 250gb ssd drive.
Anyone else having this problem? I don't want to try it on my laptop until I get this issue taken care of.
Thanks,
Gary E

I am still having the same problem. Log-ou/log-in doesn't solve it. I have to uninstall and re-install Lightroom CC to be able to start Lightroom CC. That's ridiculous. Can't reach Support since they are only open in office hours and in the odd situation I can call, I end up in an endless queue. No e-mail contact address?

Why won't Photoshop CS2 won't open after installation.

I've had Creative Suite Premium installed on my laptop for years and not had problems. I installed it on my home desktop and the activation was accepted. All other Suite programs work but Photoshop only goes so far as the blue window and the hourglass just sits there. I'm working with XP Pro and when I open Task Manager Photoshop is shown as not responding. I've tried to repair with the installation disk and I've tried to uninstall/reinstall twice but nothing seems to help.
Since I put the Suite on my laptop, the Installation disks have been on my book shelf. What could possibly be preventing Photoshop from opening?
Many Thanks in advance,
Jim Lynn

What is shown in the blue window as loading when the thing freezes?
Have you tried resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776?tstart=0
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults. A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

FF4 won't open after installation after 2 tries at rebooting computer.

Dreamweaver CC won't open after installation

I have just downloaded Dreamweaver CC yesterday and tried to launch it afterwards, and nothing happens. I have then uninstalled it and installed it again, and still nothing. I've read some posts and tried installing Java as well, but it still doesn't seem to work... All the other applications work fine, so I'm not really sure what to do next.
Thank you!

Hello,
I have the same problem, but I found the solution. If you install DW CC 2014 on a new cession, it works fine. So, the problem is about the library permissions.
- First, uninstall DW CC 2014
- Go to users/namecession/library/Application support/
- Select the folder Adobe and right clic "Read information"
- Unlock (if needed) the window
- On the bottom of the window select "read write" for all users
- Below, select "apply for all…" in the pop up menu
- Agree the dialog box, close the window
- Make the same operation with the folder users/namecession/library/Preferences
- Then install DW CC 2014
Enjoy !

Outlook 2010 won't open after installing icloud for windows

Hi,
Installed icloud for windows at work this morning after moving my MM account to icloud at home on my MBP.
Installed ok but after ticking the mail, contacts, calendar and bookmark boxes on icloud for windows Outlook 2010 starts but won't open and stays on the "Processing..." for a long time before I close it.
Also the icloud for windows control panel won't reopen except the time it opens after installation. I have tried removing it and rebooting but after it's installed, if you close the control panel it won't reopen although it's still running in Task Manager. Closing it in Task Manager and restarting doesn't make a difference.
Currently I removed, rebooted and reinstalled and only have the bookmarks ticked and outlook works ok but the control panel still won't reopen.
I am on a exchange server so don't know if this is part of the problem. Not real worried about mail but would like calendars working again.
Very thankful for any help you can offer.

I had the same problem after successfully moving from MobileMe to iCloud yesterday on my PC, ipad and iphone.
Today I couldn't open Outlook 2010. An Outlook dialogue box for my MobileMe email account kept asking for the email password, and although I put the password in, it kept re-appearing.
I turned off Norton spam temporarily, because I noticed Outlook was stuck processing the Norton plug ins at opening, and managed to open Outlook but the programme crashed every time I tried to access my email account settings (I thought I would try to delete the MobileMe email account).
I then opened the Control Panel for iCloud and unchecked the Mail with Outlook box, which has enabled Outlook to work again. The @me.com email account was gone when I checked the email accounts. I never needed to use the @me.com email account anyway.
How frustrating and such a waste of my time.
Does anyone know what difference it makes if the MobileMe/iCloud email is not connected to Outlook? Does it really make any difference when you have your email accounts in the iPad and iPhone anyway?

After clicking "yes" to the question "do you want to update itunes now", i waited 2 hours and 15 minutes and it was still "loading". i turned computer off thinking something was wrong. now itunes won't open at all. do i need to download itunes again?

Did you actually download the installer from Apple or did you use Software Update. You can download the installer http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I would consider repairing permissions first using Disk Utility because something caused this to go wrong the first time. And of course make a backup of your whole library first. It shouldn't happen but some have complained about their libraries being wiped out by iTunes updates. Better safe...

My facebook account won't open

Hi all,
Can anyone advise, my facebook account won't open - it keeps returning me to the log on screen?

HI,
Can I clarify that we are talking about using it in iChat ?
Have you enable Chat on your Facebook Settings ?
I don't use Facebook, but is there a secondary setting for using it (your ID) with other apps ? (outside the facebook page(s) )

Pages won't open after I downloaded some of your updates. HELP

Pages won't open after I downloaded some Apple Updates

First, we are all just users like yourself so it's not "your" updates. Which updates have you applied & in what order?
Quite a few users have had problems. From what I've read of those who have had success, this is what I suggest. It all depends on how you obtained Pages in the first place.
If you bought Pages from the Mac App Store:
Delete the Pages.app from your Applications folder. You will need to enter your password to do so.
Launch Mac App Store & click on Purchases. You should now see an INSTALL button. Click that, enter your password, if necessary, & you should now have the latest version.
If you installed Pages from a retail box or purchased a license from the downloaded trial:
First, you must make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. All three applications must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
Now, choose Software Update from the Apple menu, from System Preferences or launch the Mac App Store & click Updates. You should get a window similar to this screenshot. Now click the Update button next to iWork 9.2.
Alternatively, you can download the standalone update here. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563

IPhoto won't open after reinstalling

iPhoto won't open after installing "bundled software only" from the Leopard cd. The thing is that I already had everything installed , I installed the bundled software thinking that it would install the bootcamp in my mac (I know , I'm stupid...It is because I never had a mac..
What shoud I do?
PS: other program are not working either , iWork and Garage Band.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Start with the troubleshooting basics:
1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

Applications won't open after software update

after i installed an automatic software update on my iBook G4, and did the restart, several applications won't open such as Safari, iTunes, iChat. I tried to reinstall the software update, but that won't open either. it just jumps up and down like normal, and then won't open. after i try again, it jumps only once. what the heck is happening??? and i'm not very computer smart so dumb it up for me

Hello, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.

CS photoshop suddenly won't open after 5 years

CS photoshop suddenly won't open after running perfectly for 5 years. I do not have the original install disc.
Any suggestions? Apple and Adobe Tech folks could not help.

Cris (and Tai Lao)
there was no installation of a scanner (my Canon LiDe 500F scanner
has worked just fine for years) or camera driver (altho I had
recently downloaded some pix from my nikon onto iphoto) BUT— your
idea was brilliant!--disable Twain, which I did and ps launched
successfully!!
Now, as Tai Loa predicted, I can no longer import the scanner thru
ps. Given my current work crunch that's not so terrible, but how does
one access a scanner without using ps? If you have had just about
enough of me and want to pass on that question I'll understand.
I am ever so grateful to the two of you for making my ps usable
again, but it's midnight here in NYC and I have to pack up my tent
and look for your scanner question reply at the crack of dawn
tomorrow. It's been an exhausting anxiety-ridden day but I'm relieved
and grateful that there are bright people like both of you out there,
interested and willing to help. Many thanks.

IMessages won't open after Mavericks upgrade

iMessages won't open after I upgraded to Mavericks. I keep getting prompted to "enter the keychain password," but I never created a keychain. I never used it before the upgrade, and I skipped the step during the upgrade because I did not want to use keychain and it was an option to skip it during set up.

HI,
The OS X Mac have been using Keychains for a long time.
In the Applications/Utilities folder open Keychain Access.
This should show you at least two keychains.
The Login one for your Mac User account and the System one.
Generally speaking the Keychain keeps the passwords used by various apps and it needs to be Open.
In most cases the Login password for the Mac Account user is also the password that opens the Keychian when the computer is started up.
As each Mac User Account owns it's own Keychain there can be issues when you drag an account from one computer to another rather than using Migration Assistant.
i.e. you might Own it on one computer but not on another.
In the Finder > Go Menu hold down the ALT key and select the Library that appears.
In the library navigate to Keychains.
Click to highlight the Login one.
Now use the CMD and i keys together (Get Info)
At the Bottom unlock the padlock
Highlight the name that has (me) next to it (it should be your Shortname).
Once you have highlighted this use the cogwheel item at the bottom.
This should be greyed out but saying "Make you (Me) the Owner."
You should also have Read and Write permissions like in the Pic.
