This version of itunes has expired?
I cannot open iTunes, only says, "This copy of iTunes has expired." Where do I find the newest version?
You apparently got hold of a beta version which, as beta versions often do, had an expiration date and hence has now stopped working. You can download the release version of iTunes via the "iTunes" tab above. You'll probably have to delete the copy of iTunes currently on your system before installing the release version or it won't work (do not delete any of the files in the iTunes folder in your user home folder).
Regards.

This copy of iTunes has expired ??
Suddenly I'm getting the message, "This copy of iTunes has expired" when I try to open iTunes.
A few days ago it said, " This copy of iTunes will expire in 5 days"
What's that about and what to do about it?
This is iTunes 9.2Chris Harnish1 wrote:

my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.
Hi Shelady,
Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.

I did a system restore, trying to get rid of the new update (which I HATE), and now when I try to open iTunes, I get an error message telling me that "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version." You can't change the language option unless you can open iTunes - and IT WON'T OPEN!!! What a piece of crap! If there existed an iTunes substitute, I would purchase it in a hot minute!
Strip it out and start again.
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.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you really want to roll back to 11.4 uninstall all iTunes/Apple components as described in the second box, restore the pre-upgrade version of the library as described in Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash, then download and install from one of these direct links:
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-09-09)

Hi Ponquecito,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If iTunes isn't behaving as expected after a system restore on your PC, I'd suggest completely removing and reinstalling it:

This version of iTunes has not been correctly configured
I completed a scan on my computer, and asked it to delete all duplicated files. For some reason i cannot open my iTunes, it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly configured'. Me being me, i haven't copied any files or music to an external hardrive and now i can't even access them. I'm travelling on the train for 12 hours in a few days and would really like to be able to atleast watch a film! Please help! Thanks in advance
but it just says it cannot repair due to another program being installed.
I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply. -
I have iTunes running on my Windows8 desktop for some while with no problems. Yesterday I purchased a song, deleted a free game app. and upgraded to the most current version of iTunes. This morning I could not pull up iTunes, so I retored my iTunes to a setting two (2) days ago. Now, as soon as I try to start iTunes I get a message stating: This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the Enclish version OK. So I hit the OK button and nothing happens. Please help.
