Since I have Windows 8.1 installed, iTunes does no longer open, what do I have to do?

I have the ipod classic and recently I updated Windows 8 to 8.1
since that time I can no longer open iTunes, meaning I cannot add any music to the ipod.
i have googeled the issue and got the 'uninstall-download latest software from Apple download' but it does not help
I allways get the message 'there is a problem with the program, windows will close the program now and check for a solution'

Windows 8.1 is still a preview release and hence is not supported. You may well need to wait for the full release and for Apple to either update iTunes for compatibility or Microsoft to fix the issues on their end. One rather strange suggestion in another thread here advised reinstalling or updating Flash Player, so you might give that a try. Additional suggestions can be found here:

  • Itunes is asking that I edit payment info, but will not accept any changes to allow me to purchase music? I have changed cards, reentered information, uninstalled and re-installed Itunes. Nothing is working, what do I need to do?

    See HT203206: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Since installing 10.5, Itunes will no longer open automatically when I connect my Iphone or insert a CD.  Nor will it, when I insert a CD, recognize the CD unless I close Itunes and open it again.  Any ideas?

    Thanks for the reply with additional information.
    Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
    being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
    that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
    to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
    Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
    But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
    Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
    version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
    a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
    b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
    driver version roll back.
    Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
    Thanks.
    ATR
    Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
    later versions of Premiere Elements.

    i got a new lenovo desktop windows 8.1,installed itunes and synced my iphone 4 no problems. then i imported a cd of songs which showed up in recently added but not in main library ,therefore it did not sync to the iphone. how can i get new songs to appear in the main library and sync properly
    thanks
    john

    Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

    Yes that is correct
    Okay. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

    I have a very similar problem.  I am running a new install of Windows 8.1.  When I install iTunes 64 bit I receive 2 similar pop-up error windows containing the following (note error code and error text differ "iTunes Helper" vs. "iTunes"):
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Apple Application Support was not found.
    Apple Application Support is required to run iTunesHelper. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
    Error 2
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Apple Application Support was not found.
    Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
    Error 2 (Windows error 2)
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    I've followed the instructions given in this post:
      download/install WinRAR
      extract iTunes64Setup
      double click AppleApplicationSupport.msi
    When I run AppleApplicationSupport.msi, I receive the following error:
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    !   C:\Users\Charlie\Downloads\iTunes Extract - 2\iTunes64Setup\AppleApplicationSupport.msi: The archive is corrupt
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Any ideas?

    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavaliable. - Then: The file 'C:ProgramData\Apple\Installer Cashe\Apple Software update 2.1.3.127 is not a valid installation package for the product Apple Software Update. Try to find the installation package 'Apple Software Update.msi' in a folder from which you can install the Apple Software Update
    1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page): 
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

    Does it go through properly this time? If so, do you still get the 7?

    You can try installing 7-Zip (free), then right-click on the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file to unpack its contents, and install AppleApplicationSupport.msi as a standalone component. It may still not install successfully, but if it doesn't you may get a more useful error message regarding the reason why.

  • How can I sync iPhone 3GS with my Windows 7 PC, when iTunes does not appear on monitor screen when I plug the iPhone into the computer?

    How can I ync iPhone 3Gs with my Windows 7 PC, when iTunes does not launch when I connect the iPhone to my computer? Note: My computer crashed and I am reinstalling everything.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • I attempted to perform the itunes update on two different PCs and itunes will no longer open and I received a message to reinstall itunes. The reinstall did not work and I now receive a Runtime error message (R6034) re: library loading incorrectly. Help?

    I attempted to perform the itunes update on two different PCs. Itunes will no longer open and prompted me to reinstall itunes.  The reinstall did not work after several attempts and I received an error: "Runtime error R6034. An application has made an attempt to load the C Runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information."  Has anyone else had this issue? How can I resolve it?

    I've been having the same exact problem this morning, and from the looks of it a lot of other people are posting about this issue, so I don't know if it's maybe something wrong with the download but I'm just relieved that it seems to be that instead of a corruption issue with my windows installation.  I'm just wondering how long this will take to be resolved.

  • Itunes does no longer find iPad 1?

    itunes does no longer find iPad 1?
    all versions updated: Snowleopard, Version 10.6.3, itunes Version 10.5.1, ipad  5.0.1
    iPad1 is found as a camera in iphoto instead. What is to do??? Thanks

    That was obviously not the problem (I've seen that other users had this kind of problem).
    Radio button was in place and I could see all my radio stations - but none of them was playing.
    Today I was trying again - and miracle: all streams work!
    Since I didn't change my settings or version I guess that the problem was elsewhere (or within iTunes).
    Unfortunately this will not help other people having the same problem - I don't know why it's solved now.

  • Ever since I updated to Firefox 4.0, I can no longer open links in a new tab by holding ctrl and clicking the link. Any help?

    Ever since I updated to Firefox 4.0, I can no longer open links in a new tab by holding ctrl and clicking the link. The only way I can open a link in a new tab is if I right click a link and select "open in a new tab" in the dropdown menu, but ctrl + click is so much easier and faster. Any clue how to fix this?

    Some other users have fingered the Ask toolbar as the cause of this problem. You can try disabling or removing it here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
    Does that help?
