QuickTime error when starting iTunes

I have a 30Gb Video iPod. I have a new laptop, and moved software over from previous laptop using PC Relocator. I get an error message when I try to start iTunes: "QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuickTime version 7.0.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes." I removed both iTunes and QuickTime through 'Add/Remove Programs' in the control panel, and reinstalled iTunes from both the original install disk and from the iTunes website, and got the same error. I also reinstalled QuickTime version 7.0.3, and get the same error. Has anyone run into this problem and gotten it fixed?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Go here and rool down to the section "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" then disable any antivirus programs and reinstall iTunes from the net http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
If that does not nail the issue, try installing the standalone version of quicktime here http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair".
Does iTunes launch properly now?
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post:

Receive error when starting iTunes

Receive error when starting iTunes "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes" I have with no success.

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Windows error when starting iTunes 5.

Hey.
My iTunes suddenly started giving me a Windows error when starting it. I installed iTunes 5 instead of iTunes 4 recently, and it has been running. But today when I wanted to transfer some more music to my iPod iTunes wouldn't start. I just get the Windows Error... thing. What can I do? I already tried to reinstall it, but as you know, it's god d*mn impossible to completely delete Apple software without a format.
I talked to a friend of mine who had experienced the same problem, but it was his firewall/antivirus (F-Secure) that was the problem, and I'm running PC-Cillin - which I tried to disable, but it didn't help.
Help, thank you.

Deffo a missing quicktime issue. See my post Chris Rocco, "itunes launching problem.", 07:20am Oct 2, 2005 CDT
Itunes relies for some unknown reason on compression technologies in quicktime libraries. Crazy! No more quicktime alternative!

Error when starting iTunes and no Quicktime

Ok, I read a topic about involving the same problem, but with that one, Quicktime would open, mine will not.
My issue is simple, when I click to start iTunes (The new one, 7.02 I believe) I get the windows error saying:
"iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I have tried re-installing iTunes and Quicktime, but with no result. Also, with QUicktime, it simply will not open. No error message, it just does nothing.
Thanks for the help!

Error when starting iTunes for windows 64bit

When I start itunes (latest version as of 26-1-2014) I get the following error: The procedure entry point ?fastFree@***@@YAXPAX@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library JavaScriptCore.dll. I am working on a Windows 7 64 bit version.
Please advice. I have already uninstalled and re-installed iTunes, Apple Application support, MS .NET 4, Quicktime.

I managed to resolve this by carrying out the steps here. I was getting the same error after trying to reinstall the previous version (11.1.13)

I uninstalled all Apple products and deleted the Program Files directories and restarted when it said.
Reinstalled and ITunes now works correctly. Hope that helps.

Runtime error when starting itunes

Lately when I've tried to start Itunes it launches, asks for my password, then give a message something like : Runtime Microsoft C++ error: This application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
Any ideas?

For what it's worth, I had the same problem that seemed to appear after I installed the Beta of Safari for PC, which also installed the Apple Updater. I uninstalled Safari - still had the runtime error. I uninstalled the Apple updater - the runtime problem went away and iTunes opened as normal. When iTunes opened after I uninstalled the updater, the message from iTunes appeared asking to update to 7.3. Perhaps there is a conflict between the updater and the one built into iTunes.

Error when starting itunes

I went to check for new podcasts today and when I clicked to start iTunes it first told me windows was configuring it, then it told me:
"An Error has occurred while attempting to create the directory C:\Program Files\itunes\itunesMiniPlayer.Resources\ko.lproj"
and after I click cancel yes I do want to quit it gives me:
"The Installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. Tis may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330"
Any ideas? It worked yesterday, although itunes would freeze up during some podcasts.

Well, after trying the reinstall and still getting the same error message I restarted the computer and it ran a check disk and iTunes now works.

it looks like the USER data needed to connect to the instance hasn't been saved correctly. Please look at SAP note 39439 and save this data.

Quicktime errors when installing itunes.

I've been trying to install itunes for the last couple of days and have folowed the instructions provided by apple. When I try tpo run the program I always get the following ' Quicktime error. Quicktime failed to initialise (error-2096). Please uninstall itunes , then reinstall itunes again.
I've done this abut half a dozen times and it's not working. Getting a bit fed up with the whole thing.
Anyone got any ideas??

You should find the compatibility tab if you are looking in the right place.
Could you confirm what you did.
Open My Comupter, then the c: drive
Open c:\Program Files\Quicktime
Right click on Quicktimeplayer.exe
Select Properties.
The compatibility tab should be right there.

Quicktime error when opening itunes why?

I have used itunes for a while with a Nano, i recently got an iphone. Now no matter wht i do i get a quicktime error. It says Quicktime was not found. I have a hp with windows 7. I have deleted about 6 times and reinstalled. I have cut off all protection running. I have followed the instruction on this web site. Please help!

For those reading this who do not have a QuickTime settings icon visable in their Control Panel window - look to the top left of the Control Panel window and click on Classic View.
The QuickTime icon will be visible.
I did have K-Lite but I installed it as part of WMPod after I had all this palarva, thinking I would then be able to sync via Windows Media Player. Not so, Windows Media Player did not recognise the plug in - did not have it listed in the options windows.
When I double clicked on the QuickTime icon in Control Panel (classic view) I got this message;
An exception occurred while trying to run "C:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\Quicktime.cpl",Quicktime"
I had in fact deleted what I thought were duplicate QT plugins (there were half a dozen in the Programs\Internet Eplorer folder and more in Mozilla).
So I downloaded QuickTime (again) and selected repair once the installation window was up. Double clicked on QuickTime in Control Panel again.
Same message again.

Registry error when starting Itunes Vista 64

Whenever I start Itunes in Vista 64 I get the message "Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs & DVDs are missing". I have tried all the solutions mentioned in various posts, from modifiying the registry (eliminating Upper & Lower filters), reinstalling Itunes, cleaning the registry and reinstalling Itunes, but still no luck solving the issue. Can't burn nor import new music. Please help. I'm using a Dell XPS 600 with 5MB RAM running Windows Vista 64.

Quicktime error when opening itunes.

When I open itunes I keep getting this error:
AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 7.1.1.5 ModName: quicktime.qts
ModVer: 7.1.6.200 Offset: 0006f333
looks like some type of quick time error. I started happening after the 7.1.6 upgrade. Any suggestions?
Windows XP Pro

Quick Time will not open. "I get a Buffer overrun detected!" error message. This error is given by Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. The steps I have take so far are to uninstall itunes and quick time, delete the temp folder, run MS clean up utility, run CC cleaner and cleaned up the registry for the uninstalled items. I then went back and reinstalled quick time and then itunes. I still get the same error. Itunes will open fine after a reboot. After a while it does not open anymore.

Error when starting iTunes... will not start. help please!!

so earlier I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and was having trouble installing it. I downloaded it a while ago when it was version 4 but I completely deleted it and installed version 7.
eventually I got it to work, however when I went to start it I got an error saying that it encountered a problem and needs to close. then another one comes up saying that it generated problems and I need to restart the program. I did, and the same thing happened.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the entire thing 3 times; same error. I called Apple Support and they said they couldn't help me b/c I am operating in Windows XP, and Microsoft's support is closed right now. I tried repairing it and nothing works. can anyone help please??

hmmmm. okay, if your itunes.exe is running continually in Task Manager, that suggests that you don't have the Qoologic problem that Ewido fixes. (with that one, the itunes.exe typically just shows up for a few seconds, if at all ... although in some cases of multiple malware infections, it hangs around for 10 to 30 seconds.)
so let's check on the usual suspects when itunes.exe persists in Task Manager.
if you've got Norton Internet Security 2005, try the trusty Lorraine M technique:

... but if you don't have NIS 2005, or it doesn't seem to work for you, let's also check up on this possibility:
