  • ITunes application cannot be opened.  Unknown error occured (-200)

    `every time i try to open iTunes 7, this pops up. It worked fine until i tried to do a system restore to try and fix my computer for other reasons, and now it doesn't work. I've tried to reinstall iTunes 6.5 but everytime i try to open that, a message pops up talking about how it cant open because the music is only compatible with another, later version of iTunes. If possible, I really don't want to delete my music and have to restart my library all over again. I also think I would like to keep iTunes 7, but if I have to delete it to be able to listen to music again, I will. Please help me, I'm getting desperate!

    Just goto control panel>add and remove and uninstall itunes AND quicktime (You will not loose music) then reboot
    Go here (Disable antivirus)and install "Quicktime WITHPOUT iTunes" http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    Now disable antivirus and goto apple,.com to install itunes 7

  • Itunes application could not open. Unknown error occurred (-50)?

    Keep getting this message.  Any suggestions?

    This worked for me --
    Right click on the itunes.exe file in C:/program files/iTunes/, Go to properties and then to the security tab. From the security tab select 'Users' under the users and groups section and below that, gave users 'full access'
    Good Luck!!!

    I created a new user account and iTunes opens fine...
    Can anyone help.??

    I too am having the same problem. I have followed the above advice - I followed this advice http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421 to no avail. For what it's worth, It appears to be isolated to my user account. I also tried uninstalling and deleting all apple software including the itunes folder in my music folder plus deleting the registry keys before reinstalling. I also tried to move th Genius files onto my desktop as per the above suggestions. Any advice?

  • The itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error occurred (1301

    I launched iTunes 9.0.1 today and got this error:
    "The itunes application could not be opened. an unknown error occurred (13014)"
    An archived tip on the iTunes for Windows forum that suggested deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb. That didn't work, I also had to delete iTunes Library Extras.itdb. (For the record I renamed them instead of deleting, but the original post suggested deleting).
    Anyway, I thought I'd pass that on in case anyone else experiences this problem.

    I had the same error and I keep my iTune folder on an external drive due to size. I tried to create a sub-folder to temporarirly hold the itdb file(s) and give it a try. The system wouldn't let me create the folder, at which point I remembered I had left my mac on but unplugged to find the battery drained in the morning. Upon plugging it in, it came back but then told me I hadn't exjected my external disk. So, I figured there might be a correlation. I tried to eject the disk and it wouldn't let me though no programs were running. So, I went ahead an chose to "Force" the eject via the option it presented me. On the un/re-plugging the disk, I tried to created a subfolder and it worked. Before moving any files to it, I tried starting iTunes again and voila, it worked. So, I suspect the comment above about files being locked is what bit me. Hope this helps...

  • The iTunes Library file cannot be saved unknown error occurred (-54)

    Anyone seen this before and can it be fixed
    The iTunes Library file cannot be saved unknown error occurred (-54)

    I was having this issue as well, after doing two things: updating iTunes yesterday, and installing and running ClamXav, a Mac antivirus tool.
    I have now fixed the issue, first I made sure that I had the proper permissions for iTunes and it's library folders. Then I completely removed ClamXav and all its related files and restarted iTunes.  Now I no longer get this error when adding new media to iTunes or updating apps, and the library file saves fine.  For some reason I think it was related to the antivirus software.
    I think it was a coincidence as ClamXav only modifies permissions on the files it installs and none of those are anywhere near your iTunes folders, but I'm glad you got it working.

    Error -50 is a very unhelpful generic communications error with a number of possible causes.  Something between the drive to which you are downloading and the drive from which it is all coming is not working correctly, which probably leaves several hundred options.

    Repair permissions.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utiliites
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Repair Disk Permissions
    This can take awhile so do not be alarmed.
    Then try logging in to iTunes.
