My itunes wont open! but my quicktime player works fine! help please

my itunes wont opena dn ive been told that if my quick time does not open then people have solutions but what should i do if my quicktime opens fine its just my itunes that wont work??
pleas help me i appreciate it

hi ho!
well i did what u suggested and the itunes only stayed there for about 10 seconds...
hmmm. i don't really like the sound of that. it's consistent with the malware problem (it seems to be a Qoologic variant) that has been causing "error-less" itunes launch failures for a lot of people since late October.
however, there are at least two other fairly common causes of error-less launch failures (and some rarer ones), so the diagnosis can be a bit tricky. look through the diagnostic procedures and treatment suggestions given in this post here:
http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=349706&messageID=1211446
if you do get itunes launching using the MSCONFIG technique, let us know the names of the start-up items you you have to disable. (letter-for-letter-capitalisation-for-capitalisation. include the filename extensions of the start-up items.)

My itunes wont open? winows 8, it worked fine yesterday, i have deleted and re installed windows still no luck. HELLLLLLP

im not sure why my itunes doesnt work anymore, it worked fine last night, i have been seaching he support pages but cant find anything that works for mine.
i have even uninstalled the apple products on my computer and tried to re install them but nothing works for me. can anyone help with fixing this? i use itunes for everything i can even play music,
thanks

if i run itunes in compatibility mode, it works but sometimes it crashes. i think its because when i run it in compatibility mode, its for a earlier version of windows, theres no option for windows 8

Itunes wont open, not a quicktime problem

i have looked everywhere, tried everything. My quicktime will open but my itunes wont. i click it and my curser stalls like it is about to open but never does. sometimes that white agreement box flashes but goes away without a chance to read or click it. please help! also because i didnt have itunes for so long i got desperate and tried yahoo, but i have a video ipod and somehow yahoo changed the format of my ipod so now i have nothing in movies. and all the shows and movies previously in my ipod are now only sound/song files under artist/album/etc. im hoping once i get itunes back it will straighten everthing out.

hi k3kristaaa!

hmmmmmmmm.
you're actually getting an odd mix of symptoms here for an "error-message-free" itunes launch suppression.
the "flash" of the license screen is associated with Qoologic adware. but if you had that, your quicktime shouldn't be launching.
with the Norton Internet Security 2005 launch suppression problems, folks can sometimes get their QT to launch, but that isn't typically associated with the "flash".
so i'm going to doublecheck a few things before proceeding.
(1) are you getting an error message or no error messages whatsoever? if you're getting an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.
(2) have a look in your TEMP directory. typically to do that you'll need to adjust your view settings on the PC. for instructions, see the "Empty your Temp directory and restart" section in this document:
Trouble installing iPod, iTunes, or QuickTime software in Windows
... do you see a seven character filename with a .tmp extension in there? the first three characters will be letters. the last four will be numbers or the letters A through F.
(we're checking here for a W32.Pinfi infection, which can produce error-message-free itunes launch failures with an erratic mix of symptoms.)

HELP iTunes wont open but runs in system process on xp64 pro

iTunes was working just the other week. Now all of the sudden it wont open. However it will be running in my system processes taking up 36,752k
I've searched the forums and tried the suggestions also installing and uninstalling and upgrading to the latest version. iTunes very rarely gives me a problem and nothing major has happened to my system. I need a fix for this ASAP I use iTunes just about every day!!
Thanks,
Nick

Yeah great thanks, but i've been using it on xp64 for a year already with no problems
Xp64 doesnt have problems running 32bit programs for me
However there's got to be some kind of registry for this.

Itunes wont open because of quicktime

ok i downloaded the latest itunes download and restarted my comp now if i try to open the open itunes i get a message stating itunes cannot run because it detects a problem with quicktime and if i click the help button nothing happens
plz help me i have a lot of music saved

Try removing QUicktime and installing the stand alone version. Also check for incompatible software.
Here is a method
Have you installed any of the following:
ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar, (possibly starcodec pack, 3ivx)
If so uninstall them.
Then download the version of Quickime without iTunes:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
Now Remove Quicktime using the method for Quicktime in this article (just Quicktime):
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
When you come to your C:\Windows\system32\ folder you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart you computer
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check if it starts.
If it does you are in a position to find out if iTunes is OK.

Imac os wont start but windows bootcamp still working fine

Hi everyone,
My imac is around 4 years old and has been running both windows bootcamp and os x snow leopard for at least 3 years without any problems. My default operating system is mac and when I tried to turn it on this morning it gets stuck on the white screen with the grey apple icon and the loading icon spinning. Also a bar appears below this that I have never seen before.
I have tried opening the mac in recovery mode but it does not respond and goes to the same logo screen.
I have tried holding the 'D' key down while the mac comes on and doing the apple hardware test but once the window pops up it does not complete the probing and appears to freeze just before its completion.
I have also tried booting in safemode but the script stops at these commands:
launch tl: Please convert the following to launchd: etc/mach_init.d/dashboardadvisory.plist
launch_msg(): socket is not connected
However, the windows bootcamp is working fine and I can access my mac files from there.
Also worth mentioning is that it is not a grey screen that appears on start up it is just the normal apple icon screen.
Tried both smc and pram resets but nothing changed.
Also when I the mac holding alt both the mac hd and windows disc are visible but obviously same problem happens when I click on mac from there.
Any advice or suggestions would be really appreciated! Thanks.

If you use the first Grey Disk and the 'C' key, can you boot into OSX and then your disks can be inspected.

Perhaps this Apple KnowledgeBase article will help:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes had detected an audio configuration problem
Good luck.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

Itunes wont open, but is running.

Alright.
My problem is Itunes (Up to date) will not open.
I click on the shortcut.
and then it does not launch.
but when i open task manager.
It isnt in my applications, but it is in my processes.
I have uninstalled everything as multiple forum fixes have said to do and it has done nothing.
reinstalling does nothing.
There has to be a different answer than just uninstall/reinstall.
Can anyone shed some light on this, or am i screwed until the next update that MAYBE fixes it.

Doublechecking. Have you worked through the following troubleshooting document?
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues

Did iTunes ever work? Did this horrid message just start suddenly?
top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
- turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
- installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
- setting up Norton to allow iTunes
- scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
- last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

I accidentally deleted my iphoto and i took it out of the trash and now it wont open it goes to a blank page. help please.

when i took my iphoto out of the trash it wouldnt open the same it goes to a blank page and has that waiting circle but it never loads and i cant put pics in it... i even tried re installing it and it did the same thing! help me i really miss my pictures

there isno iphoto in my applications folder
Then you'll have to reinstall iPhoto. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,
Click to view full size
Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally.

HI my iphone 3GS does not respond to swipe to unlock or swipe to shut down, its 1st problem was that it did not respond to touch on the left hand side of the screen. I have restored through itunes via laptop but still the same. Any help please.

I have just used restore and it gave the latest IOS 6 something

If no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

My Restrictions has a passcode that I didn't put on. Tried 0000 but it doesn't work. Help Please.

Can't reset my location and privacy. Goes to Restrictions which then asks for a Passcode that I didn't put in.

Somebody did... as Restrictions Passcodes do not put themselves in.

Itunes wont open after an update from Apple.

My Itunes was working fine 2 days ago untill there was an update for it, i installed the update and now my itunes wont open. I've uninstalled everything from Apple and reinstalled it but still itunes wont open. Any ideas what to do next please?

Many people have been having the same problems this week because of he update. Someone on the forum mentioned uninstalling "Bonjour". +Bonjour locates devices such as printers, other computers, and the services that those devices offer on a local network - Wikipedia.+ If you have never needed it uninstall it. You could also try typing "MSCONFIG" in the Run selection under the accessories folder and un-checking it under the "Services" tab.
I personally have had the same problems. What i did was i un-checked it on the MSCONFIG menu first and then uninstalled Bonjour.
Hope all this helps

My itunes wont open! but my quicktime player works fine! help please
