Updated itunes now it won't open on my computer

I tried to update itunes so I could sync some music I bought on my computer to my phone, because my phone wasn't letting me download it directly. Now iTunes won't open. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it twice, but each time it will not open. Also, when I'm installing it, it tells me I have iTunes currently running, which I don't.

I had this and managed to fix it:
Download iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Open the Terminal
Run "sudo rm -r /Applications/iTunes.app"
Re-install iTunes

I am working off of Windows 7. My husband restarted the computer and it works fine now. But before you would click on the icon to open the program it would appear as if it were firing up and then just shut down with no message or anything. Not sure but it looks as if it's running ok now! Thanks for responding though!

I updated an app on my iphone 5 and now it won't open. How do I fix this without loosing my data on the app.

Double-press the HOME button, find the app, and flick its screen image up to kill the in-memory copy of the app. The reboot your phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears.

Downloaded update and now it won't open

Yesterday I downlaoded the new iTunes update and now it will not open. I am running Norton and Microsoft Anti-spyware and took some hints from other messages and non of those have worked.
Anyone with ideas to fix this please send them to me and thank you to those who help!!

top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
- turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
- installing QuickTime standalone, not regular

good diagnosis, iWonnaMac. your version of this is almost certainly going to be due to an incompatibility between your QuickTime and Windows Update KB908531 on Server 2003 systems.
for some more info and background on troubleshooting that beast, see:

if you decide to go the "uninstall KB908531" route with this, strongly consider implementing one of the three workarounds described in the "vulnerabilty details" section of the following security bulletin:

I have the 20GB ipod photo version. I got the notice for the iTunes version 7.0.1 version and installed it. Now it won't update my ipod. I'm furious. Someone please help me.

Multiple Services are required with the new iTunes 7...
I found this in a different thread for a different problem, but it solved my unrecognized iPod in itunes 7.01 with WinXP. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=698551&tstart=0

Try this. I found this in another forum and it worked great for me.
1. Make sure that you have these services running
[control-panel->Admin. Tools ->services]
-Network DDE DSDM
-Network DDE
-ClipBook
-Routing and Remote Access
-Terminal Services
-Server
2. stop the iPodService [same location as (1)]
3. Connect your Ipod 5th gen
4. Start iTunes7.0 [automatically starts
iPodService]if not, start it manually in services.
5. Update the new s/w in iPod.
this should not take more than 3 mins. after that, it
will restart ur ipod. ur ipod s/w is updated as seen
in itunes7.0.

What version of iPhoto?

Yesterday, I (unfortunately) said "yes" to the newest iPhoto update. Now, it won't open. Here's the

Now, there's no opening iPhoto. The crash message follows. Must I re-install iLife 2008 and start the updating process or is there an easy work-around? I deleted the plist in the prefs; of course, that made no difference (didn't think it would, really).

It looks like a reinstallation of iPhoto is indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally. If iPhoto 9 came with your computer or you bought the iLife 11 disk then use this link to download the 4 updaters and apply: iPhoto 9 Updaters

Downloaded update iTunes, now program will not open!

Can someone tell me how to solve this problem. I downloaded the newer version of iTunes to my PC today, now it will not open the application. I have unistalled and tried redownloading a couple times now, it still will not work. I am runnnig Windows 7 64 bit. Thanks

Try following steps one at a time:
1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator"
2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

I downloaded the new InDesign 2014 and now it won't open on my computer. i run on a Windows machine. Has anyone had this happen?

I really just need to know how to get it to open. I have created files in CC that now won't open, saying they were created in a newer version... which they weren't. i thought the remedy would be to download InDesign 2014, but i can't even get it to open on my computer. Any advise is welcomed.

The CC installers often fail to set permissions correctly on the preference folders. Are you getting an error message to that effect?
If so, find the folders -- they're hidden so you need to set Explorer to show hidden files, then see Replace Your Preferences for the locations of the TWO folders you need to fix. Start at the Adobe level and make sure both your user and System have full control, and apply it to subfolders as well.

FINALLY got my iTunes to update but now it won't open, the error message is "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read b/c it was created by a newer version of iTunes.

This is getting irritating. I finally get the update to install now I get this new error message, I don't get it. I have Windows 7, all the updates have been installed on that, but I can't get the stupid iTunes to open. Seriously annoying! Can anyone help me?

I don't know why this error occurs, unless you have attempted to downgrade iTunes.
This method should get you up and running again.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
