New iTunes not opening on iMac w OS10.6.8

tried to connect my iPhone 4 to my iMac and was told that I had to upgrade to the new iTunes ver. 11.11 since my iPhone is now running of ver. 7.0.2
My iMac is running OS ver 10.6.8 and when I looked for softawre updates iTunes was the only one that showed up.  Ran the download program  then restarted the computer.  But now iTunes will not open.. Anyone else have this issue?. 

issue resolved for the moment.  Although the new version of iTunes was not starting on it's own with the iMac.  It did start up once I conected my iPhone to the computer...

  • "A Fix For iTUNES Not Opening"

    Well, after trying to figure out what was going on with iTunes not opening at all. It turns out that by default for some reason Windows Xp Firewall disables it from opening it. iTunes however is acting like a server for the simple fact that you exchange data between your computer and iTunes Store. Since there is no option to force this connection to happen, you have to get ZoneAlarm to do so. I’m using ZoneAlarm Suite Edition, but it also works with the free Edition of ZoneAlarm. So what ZoneAlarm does is actually enables the connection between your computers data (iTunes) and iTunes servers to connect.
    So first off make sure that you uninstall any Anti-Virus program so that only ZoneAlarm is installed/Running. Run ZoneAlarm and once that’s achieved you then go ahead and run iTunes. You will then be prompted twice, the first time it will prompt you about itunes.exe running as a program (Click Yes) and the second is very important since this is what enables iTunes to make a forced connection with iTunes servers (Click yes again). Once that’s done, you will see iTunes runs again. You can also uninstall ZoneAlarm and you will see that iTunes will still open even after ZoneAlarm is Uninstalled. I will see if I can make a .reg file so that you don’t have to install ZoneAlarm to make iTunes open again, but then again it wouldn’t hurt having ZoneAlarm installed since ZoneAlarm is a great tool.
    Here's A direct link to the Free ZoneAlarm: http://download.zonelabs.com/bin/free/1001cnet_zdnet/zlsSetup_61_737_000en.exe
    I’m sure this will work for anyone clicking the iTunes icon and getting nothing after a sec of the hour-glass disappearing and also seeing that iTunes.exe disappears in the Task Manager. So the chances of this working are high and once again since its free it wont hurt to try. Thank you again for your attention. And if anyone needs help let me know, and I would appreciated it if you can leave a reply and let me know how it turned out, weather or not iTunes opened. Thank You.-Michael R.

    Just A Correction. In The Line ....The first time it will prompt you about itunes.exe running as a program (Click Yes) and the second is very important since this is what enables iTunes to make a forced connection with iTunes servers (Click yes again)...
    Instead of "Click Yes" its supposed to be "Click Allow".

    You originally posted on a thread that really wasn't related to your problem, so I branched the discussion.
    Check the Windows System Event Viewer to see the details of the crash, most importantly the name of the faulting module.
    Most crashes on Open or Save are due to OS bugs (especially on MacOS) or bugs in third party extensions to the OS open and save dialogs.

    why is the new itunes not picking up my music  it shows them and yet says it can not find them

    the ipod forum is very good entertainment. i remember reading it last christmas day. lots of folk blaming apple for ruining their families christmas by intentionally providing ipods that didn't work. i knew apple was pretty big i didn't know it could ruin so many xmas celebrations.

  • Itunes will not open my iMac

    I have a 2 year old imac which generally running just fine, however itunes will not open on my user profile, it just seems to get stuck in a loop. I've checked the other user profiles and its working fine on there.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

  • Migration assistant problem w/ Itunes not opening

    I just bought a new IMac with 2 HD. 1 solid state 256G and 1 regular 1TB drive. I tried to transfer all my information from my Macbook aluminuim with no firewire using the migration assistant with my last update copy of the time machine backup in an external drive. I went Ok, however the installation was done in the 256 D and went almost full (it never appeared and option of where to install) My intention is to have the system and applications on the Solid State and the rest in the 1TB.  I create a new user folder on the 1TB and copy with the finder all the files and folders of my user. Then I change in account the path of the user folder to the new one. Corroborate it on the finder and delete the original user on the solid state. Applications and system remain on the solid state. Then I change all the rights and privileges of folders in library and system to my user giving full permition. It worked fine since I could open correctly agenda, mail and ical. However, I have problems in Itunes. When i tried to open it it says it cannot be done for the permition. When I look up for Itunes folders rights It doesnt appear my user and when I try to change this (as in the rest of the folders) doesnt give me even the option of doing it. I tried to download a new Itunes but then when trying to open the dmg. it says that the installer is corrupt. Any ideas in how to fix this?

    Hmmm...that is an interesting question. It shuts down now, but would not before? Perhaps Norton was busy doing something. To be totally honest, I hate Norton, its expensive and a HUGE memory hog. My PC ran much slower when I was using Norton. Since removing it and going to a free antivirus program, it has speeded up tremendously.
    Depends on what you disabled during MSCONFIG. Whatever you disabled was most likely the culprit to that as well.

  • Windows 8.1 Computer not recognizing iPhone 5 and iTunes not opening

    So i've been having these issues persist since I updated to iOS7 in September. Computer is a MSI GT60 2OD-026US running windows 8, now 8.1.
    How this all started in September:
    1. Download iTunes and it sees iPhone, update to iOS7
    2. Everything is all good until it tries to connect to iTunes after extracting the old software, the computer doesn't acknoledge the phone is connected.
    3. Try all usb ports, no luck
    4. update usb drivers, already updated, no help
    5. reinstall itunes, no luck
    6. itunes starts to not open, its running in the task manager but no window shows up, even after ending the task and relaunching
    7. uninstall itunes and reinstall on the OS drive, now it works, but still wont see iphone.
    8. temporary fix found, iphone successfully restores on a different computer and all is good for a while
    Second problem:
    1. try to sync new CD onto iPhone, when suddenly I have over have my phone filled with "other" data
    2. restore to clear "other" data
    3. computer again wont recognize it after extracting the software
    4. again use temporary fix of going to another computer
    Today:
    1. got a lot of new non itunes music, going to sync it
    2. uh oh, I have duplicate songs on it and lots of the album artwork is wrong
    3. woah, suddenly I have 5 gb of "other" data, lets restart for a clean slate
    4. and like clockwork my computer doesn't recognize it after software extraction, get 4005 error message
    5. reinstall itunes and itunes refuses to open because I moved it back to my 1TB drive instead of my 128GB SSD OS drive because it was getting rather full.
    5. iTunes again will not open, even in safe mode but again shows up in the taskbar
    I've looked at many threads similar to this and no solution has worked.
    Have any ideas? or should I just bring my computer into the apple store?

    I have stated every issue I’ve had so far in a fairly clear and concise way. I think if you read what I wrote, it all makes logical sense as to what is going on. Windows 7/8 would work just as well on a Mac if it was supported the same way the OS is for other OEMs.
    As I stated earlier in the post, I’m having these same issues in windows 8, not just 8.1, which is the reason for the post. I know the difference between supported by drivers and not supported by the manufacturer. The fact that when Haswell mbp’s came out and no revision to bootcamp for the new hardware was released to fix issues with installing windows on the new hardware shows Apple clearly Is not supporting bootcamp as strongly as they advertise.
    I am being realistic on Apple having drivers early. Anyone with an MSDN subscription can download the RELEASE version of windows months ahead of the actual release, I’m 100% sure if any average consumer can do that by paying $100 and saying they are a developer, apple can do it just as easily.
    You aren’t much help, you haven’t answered really anything to my post, nor have you contributed any knowledge that wasn’t clearly posted above, so don’t say anything if you don’t have anything to contribute.
    By the way, my rant is directed at apple, as you can see because I am saying “Apple, if you are going to…” because this is an Apple forum on Apple’s website. It is not directed to end users, clearly.

  • ITunes not opening.  NO ERROR MESSAGE

    I cannot get iTunes to open. When I double click on it, the "hour glass" shows up, and I give it a minute or more, but the program does not open? I have the updated verision, but cannot get it to open. No error message when I try to open it...no program...nothing. Nothing at all.
    Can anyone please help?
    Thank you

    I'm having a similar problem. When I open Itunes I'm asked for my password but it doesn't allow me to enter my password or do anything else at all! When I then open task manager I find Itunes is not responding.
    I have tried closing other programs, restarting the PC, downloading a new version of Itunes and repairing (that didn't work), then uninstalling and then reinstalling (same problem!)
    What can I do? I can't sync or anything!

  • Itunes not opening on windows 8

       Recently i just bought the Ipodtouch 4g like today and to have it work i have to connect it into itunes. I have itunes already installed into my laptop and has worked properly before, but it has choosen today to just not choose to open. There is no error message, just a few miliseconds of it loading and just completely not opening. I went over to the program to install it, clicked repair because it seemed about right to do so and after wait a good amount of time and finally clicking finish it still didn't work.
       After deciding that the itunes i have installed didn't work i went to the apple store to download it again. After another good amount of time the new itunes program (which looks slightly different then the one i had before with a silver plating) finished downloading. I agreed to the terms and conditions and waited, it still didn't load up and acts the same way as the old one. I need some help with this cause i didn't buy my new ipod touch just to look at it

    There is no error message, just a few miliseconds of it loading and just completely not opening.
    Can you check something for me please?
    Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
    Now try to launch iTunes.
    Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

  • ITunes not opening completly!! need held ***help

    I'm new to ipods, i just recently bought a nano....but my iTunes will not open at all, it doesn't even come up in the task manager, ive uninstalled it and reinstalled it many times, and quicktime works fine...can someone please help me??
    Message was edited by: Dee_Diz

    I also have a problem with opening iTunes 7.4.3 - with the same error message "iTunes encountered a problem and has to close" - the error message for quicktime is "Buffer Overrun detected!" and something about a corrupted state.
    I've uninstalled, cleaned and reinstalled - and downloaded earlier versions.
    I've updated my Apple iPod driver and rolled it back and updated again, updated my C-Media Realtek Audio AC'97 driver too.
    I've a thread on it here;
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1164614&stqc=true
    My latest attempts involved opening either bit of software in different compatibility modes before unchecking the 'run in following compatibility mode box', doing a 'Run as' (no passwords on my computer) and deselecting the virus protection box for iTunes and Quicktime.
    Lastly I've tried downloaded iTunes 7.0 and then used Apple update to update/reinstall iTunes 7.4.3 after I found the same error messages for iTunes 7.0.
    I've been told that reformatting my hard disk and reinstalling Windows might help, or it might not.
    Do Apple tech folk browse these forums? There are also lots of others, including questions put on Yahoo Answers. Surely Apple will sort this out or provide advice?
