Safari and iTunes will not launch

I loaned my orignal mac mini to a friend to do some online work.
He could not get online so he contacted Comcast and they recommended some system changes.
I have the computer back and now I can't get online, itunes and Safari will not open when I click on their icons.
Please help

You are, apparently, now able to go online. Great. Take a moment to Repair Disk Permissions:
While booted from your internal HDD
Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in sidebar and First Aid in main pane.
Click Repair Disk Permissions button at bottom left.
Please post back and let us know if the initial conditions continue to persist.

Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air after Migration Assistant

I did the Migration Assistant via wireless (from Macbook Pro TO Macbook Air) last night and it did work. However, my Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air now. The error messages are as follows:
Safari: "Safari quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
- I tried reopening the app, restarting, and shutting down the computer. Nothing has worked.
iTunes: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?"
- I clicked "Download iTunes" but then another message comes up that all my software is up to date.
Any help is very appreciated.

Try repairing permissions using Disk Utility.

Quicktime and Itunes will not launch!

Both quicktime and itunes come up with errors whenever I try to lauch them. I have tried nearly EVERYTHING and they will not start! This is quicktime error-
Quicktime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Error signature is BEX

Interesting. In that case, the errors are probably being caused by the absence of the two files I mentioned earlier. Haven't seen one of those for a while.
We'd better swap out your existing QuickTime. We'll take a few additional explicit precautions along the way, just in case.
First, download and save a fresh copy of the QuickTime installer (QuickTimeInstaller.exe) to your hard drive. (Don't run the install online, and don't start the install from the downloaded installer just yet. Use the download option that doesn't mention iTunes.)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
Now head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Uninstall QuickTime.
Next we'll clear away any leftover QuickTime program files or folders.
In "My Computer" open "Local Disk C:" or whichever drive your program files are installed on.
Open the "Program files" folder.
Right-click on the "QuickTime" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Empty your recycle bin and restart the PC.
After the PC restarts, do not open any applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
Now start the reinstall by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file you downloaded earlier.
Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to your network and/or the internet.
Did the QuickTime install seem to go through properly? If so, are iTunes and QuickTime launching for you now?

My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.

SW upgrade wiped out my iTunes library and also now iTunes will not launch

I just completed the recommended Sw upgrade for iTunes and now iTunes will not launch and my iTunes library is TOTALLY EMPTY.
Clearly, I am NOT A HAPPY CAMPER. I have lost a substantial investment of $$ and time in losing my iTunes library - so Apple should be paying me for my loss.
I need help, can you, will you help me? I want my iTunes library back and I'd like to reinstall the previous version of iTunes, because it worked fine.

You don't say which versions so we don't know to which version you wish to revert. Reverting won't get back your library anyway, if it is truly gone.
Have you checked if your library is truly gone? Have you looked in the iTunes folder and the media folder inside of it? The library has two main components, all the media files for the individual tracks and the iTunes Library.itl file which give them the structure you see in iTunes. Sometimes iTunes just loses track of the library file which can be re-linked, and what's really important anyway are the media files.
If the library is truly gone you can restore it from the backups you make of your computer. Backups are a responsibility of any computer owner ever since computers were invented. If you don't have backups then it may be possible to redownload items purchased from the iTunes Store.
I know I have glossed over some of this but it's not worth going into details on how to do all the different things until we know precisely what it is that needs doing.

I just down-loaded your latest iTunes up-grade and now iTunes will not launch

I just down-loaded the most current iTunes upgrade, and now iTunes will not launch. I ran my computer diagnostics and it indicated that the program was incompatable. What should I do from here?

After loading Maverick iTunes will not launch. I get an error code: -45054. I am the administrator and have no groups or guests. Sharing options don't fix this. Als Fetch will not launch, I get error code: SSL error 9807. These worked perfectly befor

After loading Maverick iTunes will not launch. I get an error code: -45054. I am the administrator and have no groups or guests. Sharing options don't fix this. Also Fetch will not launch, I get error code: SSL error 9807. These worked perfectly before installing Maverick. Also everything that loads, all programs, take twice as long to load. I have MacKeeper and have cleaned and discarded all the garbage.

Remove "MacKeeper" as follows. First, back up all data.
"MacKeeper" is a scam with only one useful feature: it deletes itself.
Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions.
If you have incompletely removed MacKeeper—for example, by dragging the application to the Trash and emptying—then you'll have to reinstall it and start over.
IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Applications
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your login password. Click the Uninstall MacKeeper button in the dialog that appears. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. Reboot.
☞ Quit MacKeeper before dragging it to the Trash.
☞ Don't empty the Trash. Let MacKeeper delete itself.
☞ Don't try to drag the MacKeeper Dock icon to the Trash.

Try deleting all your music by going into settings>general>usage>music. Then re-download them from iTunes by going in to iTunes on your iPhone>more>purchased>music.

Itunes will not launch on Windows Vista no error code

Itunes will not launch on my computer. I have windows vista. I have uninstalled and downloaded itunes repeatedly. I have also tried all of the troubleshooting tips available on the apple support site. But none of them worked. Quicktimes works fine. It is just itunes. I even opened up task manager to check the processes and itunes appears for about a second in the processes tab then just disappears. I have no idea what to do i have an iphone 3gs and havent updated it for a few months now and cannot sync my iphone without itunes. I Have kaspersky internet protection but i doubt thats the problem because itunes was working fine until i updated it.PLEASE HELPPPPPP!

Presumably the configuration fails to complete, so every time you start iTunes it has another go.
As iTunes works normally when you plug in your iPod, you should be able to work round this by creating a new iTunes short cut.
Go to Program Files\iTunes and right click on iTunes.exe. Select: Send to>>Desktop(create shortcut). If you are lucky you will be able to open iTunes using this short cut.
However this work around does not fix the underlying problem that WIndows fails to complete configuring iTunes.

Itunes will not launch, no error message (windows xp, itunes 10.7.0.21)

Itunes will not launch, no error message (windows xp, itunes 10.7.0.21)
Yeah

OK, so i cannot enter into iTunes safe mode, whilst monitoring proccesses in the task manager I noticed that itunes will only stay open if i keep my fingers on shift and control-i dont know if that is worth mentioning- the proccess promptly ends after the release of the said keys, (I tried both the shift control keys on either side of the keyboard-same result) so i am stuck there.
P.S.
This version of iTunes had previously worked before, I uninstalled everything apple related after noticing how many processes (-id est-) /applications, were using up my memory.
afterwards I had need for iTunes, (i needed to wipe my iDevice) I reinstalled and this problem has arisen.

If you still have an issue you may have to see about using the iTunes version (application) included with Snow Leopard 10.6 from the installer or an another one if available online, and see if that will install.
Sometimes you may have uninstall the bits left in your system by the earlier (or later) iTunes installers; as they all leave a trace and these can stop a different version of iTunes from being installed.
Not sure if the following site/link will tell the method...

TS1386 itunes will not launch in XP because: "itunes library.lit cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes"

itunes will not launch in XP because: "itunes library.itl.cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes"
Is this an apple problem or a computer problem? If I reinstall itunes will my library still be there?

Uninstall and reinstall the Apple software. See the following. That link also has a link for Win7 and Vista.

ITunes will not launch after upgrade--click, bounce bounce, nada

iTunes will not launch after upgrade--rebooted nothing--2 bounce icon
then shut down all and unplugged, restarted--no change, iTunes still will not launch after upgrade
iTunes current version
on imac w/10.6.8

I have the same issue.
Allready uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, but the same problem occurs.
Icon keeps bouncing, and all that's visible is the first menu-item in the top menu bar, named iTunes. Nothing is clickable though.
The iPhone Configuration Utility doesn't seem to work either, it crashes on uploading an app to my iPhone. I guess it's using some of iTunes' libs or something.
Does anyone know how to get iTunes working again? I'm getting pretty desperate over here...
Thanks!
