Quick Time error and unable to open ITunes

I updated my ITunes and now cannot open it. Message is Quick Time version 7.02 is installed. Itunes requires vs 7.0.3 or later. Reinstall Itunes. I did several times and still get this message.
thanks.

Hey Peggy,
This is a post that I offered yesterday. The steps that I listed in the following post worked for me as I was able to access iTunes6 with QuickTime7. More importantly, my entire library was intact. Good luck! Here goes ...
Hey troubled Podheads,
I was one of the legion with problems in downloading iTunes6 and QT7 for Windows until I tried something (I must say that I am not a pc wizard and I don't know the technical reasons for why the following worked, it just did! So if there are any pc geeks out there, be sure to chime in). Anyway, this is what I did. First uninstall QuickTime if you do have it on your pc. If not, just go to the next step:
Go to START, then RUN. Type in regedit and then click OK. Your REGISTRY EDITOR should open. You should see HKEYLOCALMACHINE in the scroll down menu on the left, with a small box to its left. Make sure that the inside of the box has a negative sign - this will open up the next set of subfolders. Next, make sure that the subfolder, SOFTWARE, has a negative sign in the small box to its left. Next, make sure that there is a negative sign in the box next to the subfolder entitled, Apple Computer, Inc. You'll see at least three subfolders: iPod, iTunes and QuickTime. Click once on the QuickTime folder until it is highlighted and then delete it. You will be asked if you want to delete QuickTime and its subfolders. Click ok and then close out the Registry Editor.
Next, download the stand alone QuickTime 7 at this link (you may have to cut and paste this link to open this website):
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
When you download the stand alone QT7, you may get a couple of error messages (I did), but if you repeatedly click ok (like I did), the QT7 player should load with no problems.
Again, I am no pc geek, but this worked for me and I have gained access to iTunes6 (with video capacity) and my complete library is intact. Nothing like trial and error!! Good luck -- I hope this works for all of you frustrated Podheads out there!

  • Error (-200) // unable to open iTunes

    I have encountered an error trying to open itunes and I cannot find any support on the apple site. The error is (-200) and it prevents me from openning the application altogether.
    I have tried updating the software, deleting the application and re-installing, deleting the prefs, running disk utility (repairing permissions) – all to no avail.

  • HT4623 Unable to update applications installed.Error message "unable to connet iTunes" appears after installation icon hanging

    Since last two weeks I am unable to update my applications installed in iPad with iOS 6. Also no new app is getting installed. Installation icon appears but after some time error message "unable to connect iTunes " appears.Can some one guide me to solve this problem please?

    I've had similar problems. Whenever I try and update apps on the iPhone, the app would apparently download ok, but then not install. This didn't happen with new apps - only ones I was updating.
    I got around the issue by downloading the update in iTunes on my Mac, then deleting the app from the phone, then syncing. The problem with this method is that certain apps had saved settings which are lost when following this method.
    However... I seem to have fixed the issue after 2 months of trying.
    I followed the advice of this page:
    http://www.iphoneatlas.com/2008/09/10/itunes-8-workaround-for-5002-unknown-error -when-trying-to-update-apps/
    Then I repaired disk permissions and finally I completely erased and restored my iPhone BEFORE I synced it after the moving of the Mobile Applications folder.
    It's all working perfectly now and made my life much easier (especially with Aurora Feint updates), so I hope that this method works for some others.
    Good luck.

  • I upgraded to iphone 4. When sync to comp. Comp. asked to upgrade. I did. I tried to open itunes and it failed. Quick Time error 2096. I went through severals procedures. Finally could open itune. Pluged phone in comp it will charge but wont sync

    I upgraded t iphone 4. When I sync to computer. I was asked to upgrade itunes, I did.  When I tried to open itunes a Quick Time Error 2069 occured. I went through several procudures. Finally I could open itunes. When I pluged in the phone, it would charge but not sync. What now?

    update...
    I am not one to give up. So I called AT&T today. Now they are telling me they canceled my order because they were unable to fulfill my order. Basically, AT&T told me they sold out so they canceled my order so I can proceed to reorder again. It took them 4 days to realize this. I will be lucky if I get a new phone by Christmas. I am sure they will find a way to cancel my order again.
    Again, I argued, how is this my fault. I placed my order at the store around 11 a.m. Pacific time. My friend ordered his phone online sometime after me. He got his but my order was canceled. AT&T tried to explain to me that they sold over 600,000 phones, almost 500 per minute during there peak. Again, I asked, how this was my fault.
    I can understand over selling the phone. It is a great product. There is no reason to cancel my order. You adjust my order and tell me you will let me know when my phone will be in. I would have been mad that my phone was going to be late but I would have survived. At least I would be getting one.
    At this point, I have no order and AT&T or Apple website will allow me to order one. I just want to get in the QUEUE for one.
    Frustrated.

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

    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.

    Do you see the problem if you turn off Compatibility Mode for QuickTime?
    Right-click on the QuickTimePlayer application (located in C:\Program Files\QuickTime) and choose Properties from the shortcut menu.
    In the Properties window, click the Compatibility tab
    Deselect all checkboxes currently selected in the Compatibility tab.
    Click Apply.
    Close the Properties window.
    Check out this Apple document -> Error -2096 message when opening QuickTime for Windows in Compatibility Mode

  • I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS7 and I am unable to open iTunes on my phone - the screen just never loads.

    I installed iOS7 on my iPhone5 and now I am unable to open iTunes - the screen just stays blank.
    I have checked date and time and wifi settings.
    Not sure what else to do.
    I do have iMatch active on my device and its working fine on my other iPohne with iOS7 installed.
    Any help please!

    Have you tried logging out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then logging back in ? If it's still the same after that then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

    I am having this same problem. I took Kappy advice on restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service, however that did not work. I got this message in a pop up window that came up immediately.
    Windows could not start the Apple Mobil Device Service on local computer.
    Error 1053  The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
    I have already uninstalled itunes, all the related programs and I cannot reinstall, this Apple Mobil Device message stops the install.
    Can anyone please help?

  • I was today invited to upgrade my iTunes when I logged on.  Update failed. Every time I now try to open iTunes I get error messages.  Second message reads "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7. Windows error 126"

    I was today invited to upgrade my iTunes when I logged on.  Update failed. Every time I now try to open iTunes I get error messages.  Second message reads "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7. Windows error 126". I now can't sync my iPhoneand I am worried that if I re-install I will lose all my contacts,calendar, notes, etc.

    I too had this problems (Windows 8.1).  A few weeks ago after the previous update before this version of itunes, I'd had a problem with the itunes store crashing and at that time I followed instructions to copy QTMovieWin.dll to the itunes folder, which fixed the store crashing.
    Today I fixed the problem by:
    Delete QTMovieWin.dll from C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
    Uninstall ALL Apple Software using Control Panel / Programs and Features.  I uninstalled:
    iTunes
    QuickTime
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Apple Application Support
    Apple Software Update
    Bonjour
    Delete the folders:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple
    Restart the computer
    Reinstall QuickTime
    Reinstall iTunes
    Everything works GREAT now, including the iTunes store.  You will not lose your media files, I got everything back, all my settings, playlists, etc.

  • When I try and Share a project, I get a Quick Time Error -50  Any Ideas?  Apple Care is scratching thier heads.

    When I try and Share (export) a project, I get a Quick Time Error -50  Any Ideas?  Apple Care is scratching their heads.

    Okay, after several hours on the phone w/ Apple Care includiing nearly 10 hours on Wednesday, we finally figured out why I would get a Quicktime Error -50 when I tried to share a project out of FCP X.  The problem was in the music track that I had in the project.  I ripped a track from an audio CD, put in my iTunes then imported into the FCP timeline just as Apple says to do.
    The problem is; iTunes default rippping codec is AAC.  FCPX can't handle AAC compression.  I had to re-rip the audio CD to a uncomressed AIFF file, bring that back into my project and then FCPX could share the file and do it's own copression.
    This was a new discovery for Apple and FCPX.

    Do you have the TuneUp plugin installed for your iTunes? If so, I think your copy is causing the issue here. Try the following document:

    ... does that help with the launch errors?
