New MBP, itunes wont open because file is newer version

I got a new macbook pro tonight and sent my itunes over. When I try and open it says my itunes file is newer then my version. When I try a system update I get a file cannot be found message. Any thoughts?

Sorry, yes I meant a software update. Once I downloaded the software and it didnt work it went away but it said something along the lines of files cannot be found. I am going to downlaod the new version and then delete the old application and reinstall it to see if that works.

    itunes wont open because of Data Execution Prevention?

    Hello, ollieallen.
    I am unsure what operating system you are running so I am going to include articles for Windows XP and Vista, 7 and 8.  Completely uninstall all components of iTunes and then reinstall the program.

  • 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.

  • Itunes wont open because itfile was created in a newer version?

    Hi all,
    I tried to download the new iphone software yesterday through itunes.
    It told me it was downloading a new version plus a new safari.
    It got half way through and the itunes part had a red X through it and didnt continue, instead it completed the safari one and once complete told me to restart my pc which i did.
    When i logged back in it said itunes was broken and i should run the repair tool. I tried and it said it failed and that I had to install the whole of itunes again!
    I went on the apple website and installed itunes for windows 7 64bit. Once this was complete i tried to open itunes and i now get a message saying that the file (or library) was created in a newer version so cannot open!??
    How can this be the case when I have just downloaded the newest version from the apple website!!!?
    If any can help that would be great as im left with no way to back up my phone or get the new ios5 on it!!
    I have windows 7.
    Thanks

    I did kinda the same thing....What I was told was that because the server is getting hammered right now, the itunes didnt install correctly ( even though it looks like it did ).  The only thing to do is uninstall and reinstall until it works.  I was told it may be at least a week with all the new phones coming out today... My phone doesnt work at all now - I have to take it to a store to get it back to factory settings and when the servers slow down and I can reinstall itunes correctly, then I can get all my contacts and apps back.

  • Itunes wont open because my library was created by a different version?

    for a while now, i haven't been able to open itunes. all it would do when i tried to open it was flash the 'terms and agreements window' for a split second, then disappear. after looking over these forums, i took the advice of downloading EWIDO, and ran the program. now it no longer does the terms and agreement thing, but it is giving me the message "the file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes."
    should i simply uninstall and try installing it again?

    Before you reinstall, try moving the 'iTunes Library.itl' file out of the 'iTunes' folder (keep a copy of it somewhere).
    iTunes should then create a new, blank database file and you can Rebuild your Library by using the File=>Add Folder command within iTunes.
    That will reset your Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played attributes, as well as delete all your playlists, but you can recover your music files into iTunes.
    Unles you have a prior copy of the ITL file, that's about all you can do.

    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

  • ITunes wont open because of runtime error? please help

    Whenever I try to open my itunes the window pops up but then is followed by a message saying:
    "Runtime Error!
    This application has reguested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way."
    Please help guys

    Some users here have reported that one cause of the Runtime error is the Apple Software Update, so you might try removing that and see if that fixes the problem. Removing the Software Update shouldn't affect iTunes itself (though as with any software maintenance operation, it would be wise to make a backup of your purchased tracks before you try it), you just won't get automatic update checking.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes wont open because I'm missing msvcr80.dll? It said to remove iTunes and install again but it wont work, HELP?

    I just want my iTunes back I think I accidentally deleted msvcr80.dll? What should I do?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • My itunes wont open,because of audio configeration?

    when i try to open my itunes,i get a pop up saying my audio configeration is wrong,i've tried restoring to an earlyer time but get the same responce,havent had a computor long and i'm over 50 so someone help,before I put an axe through my computer,cheers,druby

    Since iTunes uses QuickTime to play audio/video content in iTunes, that error message most likely indicates that there's a problem with Quicktime installation.
    See if this article helps with that:

  • ITunes wont open from my external hard drive onto my new laptop

    i have an external hard drive connected to my desktop with all my itunes music on there. but when i connect the external to my new laptop, itunes wont open. it says i dont have itunes support or something like that. and the reason i have my music on the external is so i CAN open itunes from another computer. but this isnt happening right now. someone please help.

    yea it is an error 2
    Many thanks.
    We'll try a "standalone" installation of Apple Application Support, then. (It may not install, but at least we'll have a better idea of what the problem is, based on any error messages we might get.)
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us no what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • TS1277 my itunes wont open beacause of a Data Execution Prevention harming my pc

    My itunes wont open because of a Data Execution Prevention harming my PC. What can i do?

    I had the same issue after my recent update of iTunes.  I didn't update Quicktime 'cuz I don't use it much (or at all).  On another thread discussing the same issue, I saw that the Quicktime installation can affect iTunes.  So I downloaded the latest Quicktime, installed, redooted - issue fixed (for now).
