Trouble opening Itunes due to error messages?
When I click on the Itunes icon on my pc desk top, I am getting tw messages as follows.
"The program can't start because MSVCR80.dII is missing from my computer. Try re-installing the program to fix this problem."
And then when I click ok, I get another message saying,
"Itunes is not installed correctly. Please re-install Itunes." Error 7 (Windows error 126)
Maybe there is just something wrong with my Windows program? Does anyone know?
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall go to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I can't open Itunes due to error -45075. What do I do?
I can't open Itunes due to error -45075. What do I do?
I Had this problem along with the error message that it's missing the driver GNSDK_DSP.DLL. I am Windows XP and fixed the error by going to Start>My Computer>Add or Remove Programs
When the Add or Remove programs list is "populated", Find iTunes on it. Click the link that says "For more information" and the iTunes box will expand. You will see a button that says "Repair" and it says to reinstall the program if it is not working correctly, use the "Repair" button. I clicked the Repair button and it automatically started the reinstall. When all the progress bars disappear (it doesn't really give you any other indication that its done) click the "close" button and try to open iTunes again. It worked first time for me. I also saw another forum where someone said it worked for the other Windows versions by following the same route, just that in other windows versions it might be "Computer" instead of "My Computer" and the Add or Remove Programs function is also called something else. Hope this helps somebody having this problem. It drove me crazy finding the answer, but the fix was super simple once I found out what to do. -
can't update new version of itunes due to error message saying invalid si
That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
I cannot open itunes. Getting error message: "the file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
What do I need to do so I dont lose all my loaded music, etc.?
ThanksIf 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...

I was today invited to upgrade my iTunes when I logged on. Update failed. Every time I now try to open iTunes I get error messages. Second message reads "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7. Windows error 126". I now can't sync my iPhoneand I am worried that if I re-install I will lose all my contacts,calendar, notes, etc.
I too had this problems (Windows 8.1). A few weeks ago after the previous update before this version of itunes, I'd had a problem with the itunes store crashing and at that time I followed instructions to copy QTMovieWin.dll to the itunes folder, which fixed the store crashing.
Today I fixed the problem by:
Delete QTMovieWin.dll from C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
Uninstall ALL Apple Software using Control Panel / Programs and Features. I uninstalled:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Mobile Device Support
Apple Application Support
Apple Software Update
Bonjour
Delete the folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple
Restart the computer
Reinstall QuickTime
Reinstall iTunes
Everything works GREAT now, including the iTunes store. You will not lose your media files, I got everything back, all my settings, playlists, etc. -

I am having a lot of trouble downloading itunes.My latest error message is that MediaToolbox.dll is missing. I have been trying to fix this for three days now .And it all started with the last update .Can anyone help?
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. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Cant open itunes. Get error message CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll. Anyone know how to fix that?
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.
The error hints at a similar pattern to those discussed in the first and third boxes of the user tip, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find CoreMedia.dll in the one of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Delete it and then repair Apple Mobile Device Support from the Programs and Features control panel. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.

Trying to install iTunes for Windows Vista. Says "successfully installed," but when I try to open iTunes, I get error messages, "unable to locate componant AVFoundationCF.dll not found," then "Error 7 Windows error 126." I have tryed to reinstall twice with the same result.

After downloading latest iTunes 12 I cant open iTunes window says not installed correctly please re- install error 7 ( windows 5 ) PLEASE HELP
Take the unpacked components of the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file and move them to the root of drive C:. Try installing them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe which drives the original installer, or iCloud.msi unless you have Vista). You may get a more useful error message regarding any problems during the install.
msiexec /i C:\AppleApplicationSupport.msi /l*v C:\Log_AAS.txt
msiexec /i C:\AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi /l*v C:\Log_AMDS.txt
msiexec /i C:\AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi /l*v C:\Log_AMDS64.txt
msiexec /i C:\AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi /l*v C:\Log_ASU.txt
msiexec /i C:\Bonjour.msi /l*v C:\Log_Bonjour.txt
msiexec /i C:\Bonjour64.msi /l*v C:\Log_Bonjour64.txt
msiexec /i C:\iTunes.msi /l*v C:\Log_iTunes.txt
msiexec /i C:\iTunes64.msi /l*v C:\Log_iTunes64.txt
You can triple-click a line to select all of it, then press Ctrl+C to copy, switch to the command box and click the icon at the top left of the window to access the paste menu. Which components you have depends on whether you've unpacked the 32-bit or the 64-bit installer.
The log files might provide further clues as to what is going wrong.

The reason why I ask, is because I have another laptop which I then installed iTunes on (this was to overcome the issue of the error message and reduce the risk of losing my music etc. on my first laptop). I cannot see any of my music on the second laptop, even when I attach my iPod. I authorised the second laptop to link but as I cannot open iTunes on my first laptop, I cannot access my music. I'm assuming iTunes accounts are only stored on individual laptops/PCs and cannot be accessed remotely?? Or am I doing something wrong? I'm not sure what I can do.
Your iTunes library, media, playlists, and iOS device backups are safe. Please visitTroubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details. The steps in the second box should get iTunes back on track.
I don't make any use of the homesharing feature so I can't really comment on it, but if you want to change which computer you use to manage your devices see this migrate iTunes library post.

Having trouble ejecting Ipod due to error message?
After loading songs on my Ipod and it tells me it is safe to disconnect, I proceed to click on the "eject" option and I always get the following error message: "The Ipod 'administrat' cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application."
When I attempt to press "play" on the Ipod the lights blink amber and green back and forth and no music can be heard. Also, I noticed when the Ipod is plugged into the USB slot on the computer an amber light blinks.
Anyone recognize what is going wrong and offer suggestions? Thanks!
Message was edited by: bigboy5049I temporarily disabled Avast anti virus and the Windows Defender anti spyware programs and still got the same error message. I also spent considerable time looking into these two programs' preferences and was unable to see any specific mention of Itunes.
