New version of iTunes will not open says problem with QuickTime

Followed all instructions to unload/reload QuickTime still same problem iTunes will not open due to problem with QT so removed both iTunes and QT and reloades still shows message and will not open iTunes.

Try uninstalling the QuickTime Player application using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, as suggested here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926.
Also, *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled*, as suggested here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925.
Then download and install the latest version of iTunes from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

  • HT1199 Newer version of iTunes will not open.  My music is gone.  How can I get the older version back?

    My "newer version" of itunes will not open.  How can I either get it to open or get the older version which worked fine?

    Restore the backup before you installed.
    If you didn't make a backup, at very minimum make sure your Music library isn't compromised by locating the folder you selected the music to be in (usually in Users -> yourname -> Music) and make sure there are several MB of data there by clicking once on the folder, and selecting Get Info from the File menu in the Finder.
    If you can't find it, try to locate parts of track names with Find Any File.
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/ 
    then determine which parent file of the .mp3 or .mpa files you have contains all of the music files by getting info under each previous folder in the folder tree.
    Once you determine which folder contains all your music, back it up using the Finder, or backup the entire hard drive using cloning software at least to two different drives or two complete copies on DVDs:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
    You'll then want to erase and install 10.6 from the system installer you used to put 10.6 on your Mac, and run the combo 10.6.8 updater and apply the necessary security updates:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3261
    Then you can install older versions of iTunes for the Mac from here, once you determine which version is compatible with 10.6.8 that you liked before by first checking which version is compatible with what you need:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes_version_history
    Once you know that, if you can't find it with Google, let us know and maybe one of us can help. Lastly reload your music in your music folder, and your other applications.

  • The new version of itunes will not open on my macbook. Help?

    I have a Macbook that is a few years old. Recently updated the latest version of itunes and can't get it to open. Have searched forums and tried reinstalling quicktime but no luck. Help!

    What happens when you try to open it? Does it seem to try to launch and then crash? Does it just not respond? Any error messages?

  • Just bought a new pc and itunes will not open. I have tried thto repair and reinstall but still no itunes

    just bought a new pc and itunes will not open. I have tried thto repair and reinstall but still no itunes

    Best route here is to uninstall iTunes completely using the Windows Control Panel.
    Make sure you know exactly which version of Win 7 you're running.
    Restart your computer from cold (with no iTunes).
    Go to Apple website and download the correct version for your operating system.  Install following Apple prompts.
    Once installed, close iTunes.
    Restart your computer from cold (with new iTunes).
    Start iTunes - all should be operating well!  Good luck ...

  • The new version of iBooks will not open on my iPad(3gen) after it was installed. Reinstalling makes no difference. It opens then closes right away. Any fix??

    Anybody else have this problem?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • My xp version of iTunes will not let me communicate with the store

    my xp version of iTunes will not let me communicate with the store, I did have an internet issue but has since been resolved. I think.

  • Quicktime and itunes will not open - buffer overrun in quicktime

    I cannot open Itunes. It says it needs quicktime. quicktime will not open. says buffer overrun. reinstalled both itunes and quicktime. both used to run prior to updates. Help.

    Quicktime was working on my Vista computer up until a short time ago. I believe one of the Microsoft updates crippled it. I have looked at several forums and read the other threads on this site and from what others have described I really believe now that Microsoft did this with one of their updates. There are many problems with Vista all due to Microsoft trying to force developers to use only their products. Unfortunately they are squeezing us customers really hard.

  • HT1369 new version of itunes will not load getting info that itunes is not downloaded correctly

    have had itunes for several yrs attempted to download newest version but getting message that itunes is not downloaded correctly and new version will not download

    well nobody bothered to give me a hint on what to do, maybe because the problems with the new version of iTunes are really a lot, there is an enormous amount of people out there that have all sort of different problems including mine  so I have decided to return to the previous version which works fine and wait untill the apple people come up with a decent product ....

  • New version of iTunes will not allow me to burn audiobooks to audio CDs

    i just pruchased an audiobook from iTunes. as i've always done in the past, i went to burn an audio CD to back it up. i have did this with Diamond's 'Collapse' and was signaled that it would take multiple audio CDs. no problem. when i went to burn this new audiobook, i was given a warning that sometracks could not be burned to a single audio CD. no kidding? i clicked 'OK' and then was prompted that the tracks would not fit on one audio CD, but would require multiple discs, just as it had always been. no problem. so, i clicked 'OK' and waited, and waited, and waited... you get the picture. nothing happened. i tried it several times. same result. so, i can't burn my new purchase to an audio CD with the newest verion of iTunes. this is irritating because now i can't burn it to audio discs in order to listen to it in my car. why is this not working? i've also had issues with other aspects of the new version, but this is the most immediate problem. my last question went unanswered, so PLEASE someone help me out here since you can't go to iTunes for any help. thanks in advance for any assistance.

    I think I've discovered what the new iTunes lets you do. You need to drag and drop a new playlist into the iPod. After about 10 tries at this, and 2 forced quits of iTunes as the screen froze, I finally saw my playlist listed under the iPod contents and the synching began. Then the iMac told me that synching was impossible as it couldn't find the device. No iPod connected! So now iMac shows no iPod attached, but iPod thinks its still synching. I'll leave it for an hour and see what happens.

  • New version of iTunes will not access the iTunes Store

    I installed the latest upgrade 10.4.1 on my PC.  It will not access the iTunes store.  I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled several times.  Does anyone know where to reinstall an earlier version of iTunes? 

    Try performing a System Restore to a date before Apple released the iTunes update.  Go to http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-is-System-Restore for more information.

  • Firefox crashed, will not reopen. Removed perhaps corrupted Firefox. Used Chrome to download new version. Still will not open. Mozilla Crash Reporter continues to come up. I hit open and it just continues to come up.

    My Firefox crashed. I got Mozilla Crash Reporter. It refused to reopen no matter how often I tried or re-booted. It continued to try to restore Tabs. So I used MS Control Panel Add/Delete Programs. I deleted it and then used Chrome to download a new version. But it continues to try to reopen tabs. I love Firefox in spite of it's repeated crashing .... often when I am saving pictures to my hard drive. I love the add-ons and extensions. How do I get around it's effort to restore Tabs? How do I get it to open? I don't care about the Tabs. My Thunderbird email address is [email protected] My OS is MS Windows XP. Please help, Gary

    Sometimes the Firefox window gets "off screen" somehow. You often can force it to appear on the screen by right-clicking the little thumbnail image above the Taskbar and choosing Maximize. Does that work?
    One possible cause for this is that the file which stores window sizes and positions has become corrupted.
    '''Method #1:''' ''If you can get a maximized window:''
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
    Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
    * (menu bar) File > Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old as well.
    Start Firefox back up again. Do windows display normally again?
    '''Method #2:''' ''If you cannot get a Firefox window at all:''
    Shut down Firefox by right-clicking the taskbar icon > Close All Windows.
    Using the Run dialog (windows key + R) or the Start menu search bar (or in Windows 8 maybe the charms bar search bar?) type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the Profiles folder:
    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    Here you may see one folder -- in which case, double-click into that -- or more than one folder -- in which case, double-click into what looks like the most recently updated.
    Scroll down and rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old as well.
    Start Firefox back up again. Do windows display normally again?
