Quicktime doesn't start up / iTunes freezes or closes down

Having been a satisfied iTunes user for quite a time, it suddenly froze a few days ago when I tried to play already listed songs.
I have installed the latest version but the problem remains. Furthermore, whem importing a file by the menu, an error message appears (error code -50).
Furthermore, when I try to start the QuickTime Player separately, I hear the Windows error sound but now message shows up. QuickTime does not open up.
As recommended in similar threads, I've already tried the following:
- disabling firewall and/or AntiVir
- check for spyware
- soundcard/driver settings checked
- CHKDSK
- removing QuickTime/iTunes, cleaning registry, installing QT standalone (same problem...)
Other players or sound related programms work as usual.
Having ordered an iPod and having spend loads of time on this problem, I would be happy if you can provide further ideas. Thank you very much!

ITunes won't close down.

Hi. First time of asking a question so hopefully I will include all sufficient information.
Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit.
iTunes latest version as of today (15 April 2015).
iTunes won't close down. Continually freezes and I have to use Task Manager to close it down. Any suggestions?

ITunes freezes when shutting down, playcount not saved

Okay, hey...
Everytime I shut down my iTunes, it freezes, and this Windows-standard-popup shows and ask me if I want to report the error or just shut down the program. (Sorry this message is different in English, I'm currently on a Danish computer).
So, anyway, after I click "Shut down the program", it closes, so yeah.. problem solved, I thought. But when I start up iTunes again, my play count is not updated. There's this new song, and I've listened to it a gazzilion times, and the play count is XX when I shut down iTunes, but when I start the program again, it's 0. Weird.
And the program still freezes when I shut it down!? EVERYTIME I close it. And the play count is NEVER saved...
Help...?

I read in another thread that you needed Quicktime working properly, in order to have iTunes working without any problems.
I just loaded my Quicktime, and it works perfectly. So no problem there.

Itunes will not close down,

My i tunes will not close down even using force quit,anybody got any ideas please.

Go to Activity Monitor, search for "itunes," and quit every process related to iTunes.

TV show won't play because Quicktime doesn't work with iTunes version

I downloaded episode 1 of Mad Men. When I try to play it I get this error: This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes
I read some of the other support discussions and tried to do 2 things:
(1) I tried to set iTunes to open in 32 bit mode. But, when I open iTunes after doing so, I get an error that iTunes must be opened in 64 bit mode. So, that didn't work.
(2) I tried to remove the movie, but instead of being asked whether I still wanted to keep it, it just asked me if I wanted to "hide" the movie. So, I'm not sure what this means.
How can I watch the show I downloaded? And, please provide really explicit instructions because I can't seem to follow the complicated directions some of the super smart people leave on these discussion groups.
I have a Macbook Pro 15 inch retina screen computer running Yosemite 10.10.3. I have iTunes 12.1.2.27.
Thanks,

I had the same problem as teacher_k reported and I am happy to report that after 2 days of fighting it seems I solved it.
Symptom was: when playing a movie trailer from iTunes on a HDTV or on the computer either nothing happens or a black screen opens and no video or audio is perceived. I have a Win7 laptop.
I am not sure if all of these steps were necessary but at the end it started working:
1. I hope it is obvious that you need a connection to a HDMI TV (at least for some content that is protected) . Ensure that your TV display correctly shows your screen when not playing movies (fixing resolution, refresh rates, etc.)
2. Ensure you have latest rev of QT and that it is the default player for movies (by just launching it and answer yes to that same question if appears)
3. Follow the instructions in Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues as Whatcheck said
4. The last tmagic step hat made it work was based on Patriciafromor: deauthorize/authorize the computer, Just in case I also logged off and back into my AppleID account and restarted iTunes and voilà

Quicktime doesn't start!

I've tried installing it and reinstalling it several times. I even changed my pc hoping to fix this problem, but with no luck.
Whenever I try to start quicktime I get the windows "critical stop" sound. iTunes closes when I click on music.
I have tried everything, like installing older versions of quicktime. I don't know what else to do. Can anyone help?

Quicktime doesn't work after Itunes install

After installing Itunes 7.0.2, I suddenly can't view Quicktime files. I had Quicktime installed before, but obviously it was overwritten when I installed Itunes. Now, when I attempt to view any .mov files, the audio is played, but the video is a scrambled picture of garbage.
Any thoughts?

Down load and install quicktime by itself. That should correct the issue.

Hi kozzie17,
If your music is no longer opeing in iTunes by default on your Windows machine, you may find the following article helpful:

i have nvidia installed only..
last time about 2 month ago, i face the same problem initially but later ended with working 'X' by doing nothing.
the problem(same) comes again after full system upgrade which was include latest kernel & nvidia...i successfully bring back my system by downgrading kernel and nvidia package after many tries...but one day 'X' freezes, bring system back by installing 'vesa'(i try nouveau before vesa but its gives me very low resolution 640*480 only) and later installing same nvidia package.. finally another day X freezes and failed to get back my system (try both nouveau and nvidia)

ITunes freezes when syncing with iPhone, but works fine with iPod?

It's a bit of a long story with my iPhone/iTunes problem. In late July, my iPhone stopped syncing properly. It's an iPhone 4. Basically, I tried to add more photo albums to sync onto my phone, something I have done before. It began syncing, then notified me that it couldn't sync 'x' amount of photos. It was a pop up on my phone screen. I tried deleting my cache in My Pictures, still errors. Then it seems like everything possible has just glitched when I sync as weeks went on. It wouldn't sync music. The songs would appear gray and failed to play. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it doesn't. Now, iTunes freezes when it reaches the end of the sync and I have to ctrl+alt+del to close iTunes as it stops working.
I took my iPhone to apple, and she ran diagnostics and couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. She told me she couldn't run diagnostics on my iTunes because it's a Windows laptop and she's "not trained to work with them". She said everything seemed fine with my iPhone and asked if it was possible if I have a virus. I've had no other problems with my laptop whatsoever and I have a decent virus protector that we pay for monthly.
I have tried restoring my phone twice, with a backup. I tried again WITHOUT a backup, and still, it freezes when it syncs, some songs are gray on my iPhone and won't play, and photos refuse to sync, period.
I then tried syncing my dad's iPod with my iTunes, and it worked. I also tried syncing my iPhone on my dad's laptop, and it worked. So something is clearly glitching between specifically my phone and my iTunes. I'm avoiding uninstalling iTunes at all costs because I don't want to lose play count information as the majority of my playlists are created this way. I thought iOs 7 or iTunes 11 (now 11.1) would fix it, but neither did.
Can anyone determine what the problem could be and how to fix it?

the same thing is happening with me. itunes will freeze and then it wont put songs on my ipod.
im starting to get upset since i just went out and bought a new ipod. thinking that was the problem.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Clamav doesn't start

I've installed clamav and tried to start it through the rc.d script but it doesn't start.
It seems to be down to the line:
if [ "$START_CLAMD" == "yes" ]; then
returning false. If I comment that line out it starts ok,
Starting clamav just from the command line (just running clamd) also works.
Has anyone else had this problem?

/etc/conf.d/clamav, not /etc/clamav/clamd.conf.
Files in conf.d are configuration files for /etc/rc.d daemon scripts.

Lightroom is very slow, utilizes 100% CPU, then freezes or closes program. How do I fix it?

I am having a problem with Lightroom 5 being very slow, utilizing 100% CPU, then freezing or closing the program. How do I fix it?
I just upgraded to LR5 from LR3 on Sunday as well as CS6 from CS5 (which I have not tried out yet). I spent several hours talking with Vamil, from LR Support Staff yesterday. He was extremely helpful and kind and tried everything he could think of while remote-handling my PC and talking with me on the phone. He deleted preferences, cache, temp files, updated graphics with a new replacement file from AMD site, then re-downloaded and reinstalled LR5.
It is still very slow and then freezes and closes down with a message of utilizing 100% CPU. Within several seconds of using the brush in Develop, I started having lots of problems. I could not even move the picture around. The side screens would not disappear like they should. And I could not move to another picture. The day before I spent several hours trying to work on just 1 picture. After all the changes yesterday, I tried to move from picture number 1 to about 130 after having not touched it for 10 minutes, and a half hour later, it still said, "Processing" with no picture coming up, just a blank prieview pane.
LR Support suggested I get a new CPU though he thought according to specs mine should be ok and other programs were running fine.
My PC is only 2 years old.
I talked to HP briefly about CPU updates for my HP PC. He said I probably do not have a problem but suggested I run self-diagnostics and maybe buy a new CPU anyway.
I ran diagnostics listed through the HP Support Assistant connection on my PC. All was ok.
I still researched if I could buy a compatible CPU upgrade. I cannot even find any CPUs still selling that are listed for my PC. Best Buy Store said they could not even order a compatible CPU. They said my Bus speed may not be big enough, so they suggest I get a new PC. What Bus speed do I need?
I have the following PC Setup:
     AMD Phenom II X6 1045T Processor 2.70 GHz with 6 Cores
          with 2700 MHz Base, 3200 MHz Boost, and 4000 System Bus Speed, and 95 watts;
     HP Pavilion Elite, HPE-500y, 900 GB Free, new in 2011;
     Windows 7, 64 Bit;
     RAM 16 GB, DDR3;
     Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6450;
     Nikon, D200, with Raw Files;
     External Hard Drive for Original Photos, 600 GB Free;
     LR Catalog and Library are on Main Hard Drive;
     Monitor, Sony CPD-200ES, new in 2004.
I am thinking of buying a new monitor tonight mostly so I can do better photo work while enlarging the pictures to do it. I am concerned that while it will help my viewing, it will take more power away, and make my usage of LR5 even worse. Will a new monitor affect my performance? I am looking at HP Monitors with IPS. Is this the best recommended choice for LR and Photoshop CS6?
I think I would like to stay with a 6 core processor since I need to have several items open for other non-Photoshop functions. When running LR5, I had everything else closed. With LR3, I was able to have other things open.
I do not really want to buy a new computer and know that those I have talked with at this point are only guessing after looking for what they thought should fix it. 4 People from Lightroom Support have all thought I should not be having problems with my setup.
I bought one of the best computers 2 years ago. Is it really obsolete already so that I cannot use LR5? Is everyone else buying a new PC every 2 years? I used to go 5-7 years.
Even though I have figured out some of what my PC has, I really do not know technically what I am talking about so am at the mercy of other's help. Are there any solutions that might work short of buying a new computer?
I also have taken 40th anniversary photos for some people and am waiting to give them as a free gift since I am not a professional at all. I am hoping to get through this problem soon so that I can provide some nice memories for them.
I have not gotten any further than trying to adjust 1 picture. I have no comments on uploading speed, since I did that while still in LR3.
Thank you for your time and help.

I'm running LR with no speed issues on an Intel 17-860 quad core with about the same performance as your AMD Phenom II X6 1045T Processor. My system is also an HP, which originally had a single 1TB 7200 HDD. I've since added a second 2TB Black Caviar HDD, which provided no significant difference in LR's performance.
AMD processors do not implement hyper-threading and don't need it. I'd start debug by process of elimination:
1) Disconnect all externally attached USB, FireWire, or other externally connected devices except keyboard, mouse, and your single 1280 x1024 display. This includes all externally attached memory card readers, phones, ipads, etc.
2) Reboot and logon as Administrator.
3) Remove your Internet connection and turn off all Antivirus and firewall programs.
4) Open LR and under Catalog Settings set 'Standard Preview Size' to 1440 (slightly larger than your display width). Under the Metadata tab here make sure 'Automatically Write changes into XMP is NOT checked.
4) Create a 'New Catalog,' Create a new folder and add about 10 raw image file copies to it for testing, and Import it into the new catalog. In the Import module make sure under File Handling 'Render Previews' has 1:1 selected. Wait until all Preview building has completed in the Library module.
Try editing these image files inside the new catalog as you were previously.

Itunes 7.0.1 doesn't start due to Quicktime

I just upgraded to version 7.0.1 but itunes doesn't start stating this error:
"Quicktime version 7.0d0 ins installed, Itunes requires Quicktime version 7.1.3 or later."
I tried opening quicktime but it created a runtime error.
Please help

Oh it works now - All I had to do was open quicktime separately for it to configure itself. iTunes opens fine now.

(Windows XP) iTunes doesn't start

Hi,
My iTunes under Windows XP doesn't start since one week: I can see it started in the taskbar like other applications, as if it were minimized, but nothing else. No error message. If I click on it, nothing happens, if only it doesn't freeze the complete PC. I can only right click > Close.
I uninstalled all iTunes, then installed it again, and it still didn't work.
I downloaded iTunes latest version again to be sure. Still the same.
I looked for solutions over the web, but with no error message it looks difficult to find a case like mine.
Any idea someone?

Hey hervelam,
We have a great resource that will help troubleshoot this issue. It may be isolated to third-party software or plugins, which would explain why uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes has not resolved your issue. For information, please refer to the following:
