Please run the English version...
I have tried everything I can think of to get iTunes to install properly. After a completely clean install I still receive an error message on launch that reads, "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version." Any ideas?! Thanks in advance for the help.
found this in another thread:
So, I spent almost an hour on the phone with Apple who was also dumbfounded about this occurance. so finally 5 minutes ago, the guy said:
GO TO YOUR [HOME FOLDER]
CLICK [LIBRARY]
& DRAG THE [[CACHES}} FOLDER TO THE TRASH.
now try to open itunes
here is another thread (the OP is on 10.6, though): http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2151088&tstart=0.
good luck !

my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.
Hi Shelady,
Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.

I did a system restore, trying to get rid of the new update (which I HATE), and now when I try to open iTunes, I get an error message telling me that "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version." You can't change the language option unless you can open iTunes - and IT WON'T OPEN!!! What a piece of crap! If there existed an iTunes substitute, I would purchase it in a hot minute!
Strip it out and start again.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you really want to roll back to 11.4 uninstall all iTunes/Apple components as described in the second box, restore the pre-upgrade version of the library as described in Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash, then download and install from one of these direct links:
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-09-09)

If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:

This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version.
have verified and repaired permissions. all downloads are giving me either invalid checksum or "image file corrupted" every other coputer on the network runs fine. Just wondering if i am going to have to wipe and reinstall. please say no.I got this problem after upgrading to 11.0.4. Solved it by going to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ , downloading the newest version and reinstalling. Works fine now.
Full disclosure - I was having problems with 11.0.3 crashing, so I had used Time Machine to revert to 11.0.2 prior to using system update to install 11.0.4 the first time. -
Just downloaded newest itunes version. Now, it refuses to open, with error message, "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version." Any thoughts?
I had the same problem, I reinstalled and lost all my music now I cant even retrive it from emusic where i purchased music....
