QuickTime Wont Open. Need Help!!

I upgraded to the new itunes 6.0 and quicktime.
and now both wont open.
Quicktime opens for 2 seconds and then closes.
And thats making my itunes not work since quicktime cant open.
lmk if anyone knows what to do.
Thanks

You are having the same problem as dozens of others, I included. There are many other threads out there that provide some suggestions. Try them, it may work for you, but as for me so far none of them have worked. I'm hoping that "Raquel" will soon figure it out, Apple sure hasn't. Apple should never have released such a horrible and untested piece of software. Good luck, don't give up.

  • Itunes wont open need help backing up music on external hard drive

    My itunes wont open after upgraded to 8 , ive uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and quicktime and still wont work. i found a topic to possibly help me but i dont know how to tranfer my music to an external disk drive without being able to open itunes. i am getting so frustrated. please help

    A usb hard drive that Windows sees doesn't need software for a simple back up.
    Format the hard drive Disk Management, if it doesn't come already formatted, and then drag and drop the iTunes folder and whatever other data you want to back up to it.
    What you're describing doesn't sound like something iTunes did. If you're having general install troubles you have another problem with your system and it's time for a little troubleshooting to find out what's really going on.

  • Itunes wont open- need help!

    Whenever i try to open my itunes it says "itunes has encountered an error and needs to close." Ive tried repairing itunes, reinstalling itunes, uninstalling quicktime and installing the standalone version, and then installn ewido anti-mallware and trying to remove some of those inected files. Nothing has worked and ive read through some of the post at i cant find anything else. Please leave me some suggestions! thanks
    adam

    The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevents it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
    If that doesn't cure the problem, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistance the next time you run it and you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes 6 wont open Need Help!!

    I recently installed the newest version of iTunes (6.0.4.2). Every time i try to launch it i get an error message that reads "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" in the error report it says
    AppName: itunes.exe AppVer:6.0.4.2 ModName: quicktime.qts ModVer: 7.0.4.80 Offset: 000346f0"
    I have no idea what any of this means or what is causing my iTunes to not open but its really starting to frustrate me, i have tried reinstalling it several times and i still get the same result. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    hi allstarpirate!
    Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close
    the first thing that i check for when people report getting that message when they try to launch their itunes is a broken QuickTime.
    try to open your QuickTime. does it launch properly, or do you get an error message?
    if you get an error message, the first thing we'll try is a careful standalone QT 7.0.4 reinstall.
    download and save a copy of the QT 7.0.4 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.0.4 Standalone Installer
    if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
    (if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    love, b

  • LOGIC WONT OPEN NEED HELP PLEASE!!

    so i have logic pro 8 on my computer and i click the icon it bounces up and down a couple times and will ask me which sort of template that i want to use.
    After clicking on a template my mouse turns into the spin wheel and then it say that logic is not responding.
    It has done this now for a few days and a few days before this i couldnt even get to the template menu.
    After deleting the application all together and deleting the preferences i got one step closer. Is there anyone out there that can help me?
    i am not to computer savy so please give me routes to take with your help.

    i understand that logic is a serious program for only serious users. that is why i use it. i meant i am used to working with the registry on a pc not a mac. i can understand anything you ask me to do as long as i get a route. so like i said i uninstalled the program and reinstalled it twice now, as well as deleting the following files out of the user preferences.
    com.apple.logic.pro.plist
    com.apple.logic.pro.cs
    still i get nowhere. i also deleted all the logic files that say (crashed).
    i also tried creating a new user account and opening the program from there
    i get the same error every time.
    i have now gotten to the point where logic is trying to load the audio files, but the arrange window still never pops up and then the program will no longer respond.
    So w/o the sarcasm i could use a little help. D-bags

  • Itunes nor quicktime wont open on windows 7

    my itunes nor quicktime wont open i uninstalled and installed itunes i tried disabling bonjour i added a new users i did a virus scan i am all out of ideas i need major help

    Many thanks.
    I think we'd better see if some other application (other than QuickTime itself) has dropped old QuickTime componentry in the system files on the PC. (If there's a version mismatch between the old componentry and the "QuickTime proper" componentry, that can create those error-message-free launch failures for both iTunes and the QuickTime Player.)
    So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view options on the PC.
    1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
    2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
    3. Click the View tab.
    4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
    5. Click OK.
    Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "system32" folder.
    What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

    yes, I tried that document first but it did not work.  I couldn't even open itunes in safe mode at all.  I have reistalled safari and repaired quicktime, I've deleted all itunes software and reinstalled, I've googled fixes and tried them all.  Nothing works.  I tried creating another user account, didn't work.  I can now open itunes, but I have to double click the icon and walk away from the computer.  It take 10 or 15 minutes to open, will sync my ipod once, then locks up and I have to reboot.  Any other suggestions?

  • Itunes wont open! help help help!

    i just upgraded my itunes to 7.3.1. it wont open at all! i've uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing happens! it just does not open at all and i'm getting really really frustrated.
    what versions of itunes work with the 30gb iPod video with color (all that, etc)? because i'm thinking that this version doesnt work with my computer or something like that and that really really *****!
    somebody help me! please!

    Let's try to get an idea of what might be going on with some preliminary questions from b noir's "smack" for iTunes fails to launch situations:
    Is there an error message associated with the launch failure?
    If so, what does it say and what (if any) error numbers are there?
    If there's not an error mesage, go to the XP Start menu > All Programs and try running QuickTime.
    Does it start?
    If not, then the same question as for iTunes - is there an error message? If so, what does it say and what (if any) error numbers are there?
    And one other question for now, do you notice any other peculiar behavior with QuickTime?
