PC says Error New Itunes Library??

This approach may help...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
If not try a repair install of iTunes, or uninstalling and then reinstalling.

  • Why wont my itunes start? it just says error new itunes library

    my itunes wont start, it just says error new itunes library

    You have to go into the iTunes folder, open the subfolder labled "Previous iTunes Libraries" and delte the most recently saved library.  Actually can I assume this is because you installed iTunes 11, then like most people, saw how much the new chanbes suck and went back to an older version.  If that is the case, when you go to your "Previous Library" you have to delete any library that was created with iTunes 11.  I just went through all this on Thursday.
    I really hope Apple is listening to all the complaints on here.  The very least they can do is give an option for something like a "Classic View"  like microsoft has done in the past with Office, and Windows

  • Why when i open itunes dose its say: error, new itunes library

    what i said in the headline

    The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device.  Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up.  It keeps syncing to the old library...

  • Itunes won't open 'error: new itunes library'

    My itunes was playing up.
    Not recognising my iphone 4s.
    It then told me I had to install the new itunes to make m iphone compatible with the computer.
    I did so and now the itunes will not open saying "Error: New Itunes Library' WHY?!? This is really frustrating me!!
    Thanks.

    georgiamomma -
    There are a few things you could try,but what worked for me was to download a fresh installation file from apple.
    Your update got corrupted somehow. Doing the usual of going to control panel, clicking on Programs and Features, clicking on iTunes in the list and selecting REPAIR probably won't fix this issue, as sometimes repair reverts the installation to its previous version and then your iTunes Library.itl file can't open because it's from a newer version than the one REPAIR reinstalled. You can try that process, but I doubt it will work.
    Do not change any files and/or their existing locations. Also, do not uninstall iTunes from your machine. Simply go to Apple's web site and download their latest version suitable for your particular computer. Once downloaded, double click the installer and follow the prompts. You should be able to launch itunes afterward, and your library will magically re-appear.
    Again, DO NOT uninstall the old version, and do not rename, remove and/or replace any of the original files prior to installing the latest version over what's already on your machine. Good luck!

  • I can't open my iTunes "Error: New iTunes Library" help =(

    Starting today, I can not open my iTunes library. Every time I try to open it, a error message shows up saying "Error: New iTunes Library". I don't know how to fix it. I've tried restarting my computer, taking the battery out, uninstalling iTunes (I couldn't uninstall it either! It wouldn't let me), and deleting the recent library change. Nothing has worked. I need help on how to fix it and what the error means please!

    Try removing the Genius database.  In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ folder and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.

    You need to copy some files and your iTunes folder to the new computer. Do you have a backup of your old computer (or still have the old computer?) Was the old computer a Mac or PC?

  • I can't open itunes when I click onn the icon the message I get is "error new itunes library"

    I can't open itunes..when I click on the icon on my desk top I get the message" error new itunes library". I have windows 7.

    Hi beachy85!
    When you remove iTunes, your music on your computer (and your iPod, too) will be saved.
    Let's try this:
    Go to "Add or remove programs" in Control Panel.
    Find iTunes and QuickTime from this list, and remove them both.
    Then, download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to remove the remainging installation files.
    For information on the WICU, see this:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Then, go to this page, and QuickTime (get the Standalone version, not the one that includes iTunes in the pack):
    QuickTime download
    Then, install iTunes from this page here:
    Download iTunes - 7.1.1.5
    After you've done that, restart your computer.
    Now, try opening iTunes again. Do you still get that error message, or not?

  • Error new iTunes library

    Just downloaded latest update....now get error message saying: "New iTunes Library." when I try to open iTunes.

    Yes, I got this error too (New iTunes Library) when I was rolling back to Version 10, I found that you have to 'repair' iTunes under the windows control panel (Programs)  to get it to work properly, or at least that was my experience.  Here is a copy of a post I made earlier on how to fix this issue.
    <snip...> however If you have the same experience I had you are likely to get an "New Library Error" msgbox with just an OK button on it.  You press ok and nothing happens.  Not promising- but there is a fix.
    Next step is to go to the control panel - programs (where you would if you wanted to manually uninstall a program) and find the entry for iTunes.  Right mouse click on it and choose Repair.
    Now Windows will go off an do it's thing - this took about 3 minutes for me.
    Now you can open iTunes.  You wil notice that all your music and lists are now gone, but don't panic.  Close iTunes.
    Go to the iTunes folder on your c drive and find > iTunes > Previous iTunes Libraries > ......
    find the file "iTunes Library YYYY-MM-DD.itl" that has the latest date BEFORE you update to iTunes 11 if you are reinstalling v10, I would think you should use a later version if you have this issue with V11.  Don't use a version 11 dated library for Version 10, or visa versa or it won't work, copy this file into your iTunes folder (so up one folder level) and rename it "iTunes Library.itl" (replacing the existing file - I usually rename it iTunes Library_OLD.itl)
    Now restart iTunes and all your music and lists should be restored.
    That is what worked for me.  As always - approach with care.  Your milage may vary.

  • Receiving error new itunes library after update

    just updated itunes and can not open itunes. Receiving error message 'new itunes library'
    how can i fix ?

    I had the same problem. I simply uninstalled 11 completely off my computer. Then went to itunes.com and re-downloaded it. In your music folder there is a folder "iTunes"  and in there a sub folder named "Previous iTunes Library." When you uninstall iTunes from your computer this folder remains put and is what retains your music library when you re download and install iTunes.
    I never use playlists so I wouldnt know if your playlists are saved.
    This is how it worked for me, I'm sure there are other solutions to the problem but this is the route I took. Hope this helps!
