Updating to 7.5 completely breaks iTunes

I was prompted to update my version of iTunes today, and like the good little user I went ahead and updated. Once that was complete, attempting to open iTunes resulted it showing up briefly in Task Manager, then vanishing again. It simply would not open.
I went through all the recommended steps to completely clean iTunes and Quicktime from my computer, reinstalled and finally iTunes would open. However, as soon as I attempted to copy music to my iPod, iTunes exited while copying and now refuses to open again.
Prior to this, iTunes worked just fine with my iPod, with none of the above problems. This has only been a problem since updating to the most recent version of iTunes.
Most troublesome is that my iPod has now allocated that memory to those songs, but they do not show up at all.
I am using iTunes on a Windows XP machine, with a 30 gig 5th generation iPod.

The new version of iTunes completely ruined my ability to play music as well. I actually can't even open iTunes anymore no matter what I do. A problem happened the last time Apple had a new "update" for iTunes. Whenever I opened it, I would receive an error message and even though I did everything Apple's "support page" said, nothing worked.
I am so tired of updates meant for the newer models of Apple's products ruining my computer. Whenever they have an update, they should at least state what product it is needed for instead of destroying the iTunes of their other customers. It's not fair that we get punished just because later versions of iPods.

We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-3231).

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has additional ideas for a workaround with the -3231 iTunes Match error. My iTunes cannot get past "Waiting for Apple to deliver your iTunes Match results..."
I had this error in the past and I found one music file that was not uploading to the iCloud correctly. Upon deleting it, everything worked fine. However, the error is back and I am out of ideas.
Things I have tried:
Terminal: Sudo Purge - I tried this today, it didn't change anything
Connect via Ethernet - I have seen multiple people say that connecting the computer via ethernet has fixed there problem. My computer has always been connected via ethernet, so not seeing that has a solution.
iCloud Status - I have checked all the songs in my library and they are either Matched, Purchased, Uploaded, or Ineligible (these seem to consist of Digital Booklets, Voice Memos, and certain Music Videos)
I have a 27-inch, Late 2012 iMac and there are only 5317 items in my iTunes library, which to be honest seems really low compared to most of the people that I have seen posting in the forums.
I have not tried Store > Turn Off iTunes Match, then turn it back on, and I would prefer not to. I want to believe there is another option, so I am out looking for it before I get to that point.

Additional info: I just rebuilt my iTunes library, and error -3231 reoccurred. It appears to completely break iTunes Match.
What exactly is error -3231? What causes it? How do I fix it?

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

You generally get that error code on a jailbroken phone ?
If it is Jailbroken then I am afraid you will get no help here.

I recently updated iTunes to version 11.5.5, and now my iPhone 5 will not sync up completely with iTunes.

I recently updated iTunes to version 11.5.5, and now my iPhone 5 will not sync up completely with iTunes. ITunes will recognize and sync up, but I now cannot manage my music on my phone. Also, all of my playlists on my iPhone were wiped out. It would be great to retrieve my phone playlists, but more important, be able to manage my music again. I'm running on Windows 7 and I own iPhone 5. Suggestions?

I have windows 8, I'm not sure if that has anything to do with anything, but i figured maybe 11.1.4 just doesn't like 8. soooo.. i went onto my computer settings and uninstalled anything and everything made my apple and then reinstalled itunes 11.1.3 and it now reads my ipod nano happy day thanks apple for making something that you can't help me with at all

I recently updated to the latest version of Itunes (11.1) and when i try to play music or tv shows, the sound lasts only for a second before going completely mute, anyone know how to fix this?

Check this thread out -> iTunes 10.4 & Multimedia Keyboard
It doesn't look like there is a fix yet, but some people in the thread are pointing to this workaround:

Following some suggestion i seem to have found a solution for the problem and my play/pause, next and previous buttons work with iTunes 10.4.1
- You need to open a text editor (like notepad) as an administrator.
- Open the SetPoint players.ini file (C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPointP\players.ini)
- Edit the line under the [Players] section to match the line bellow (bold is the wndClass which is to be changed)
iTunes=wac,iTunes.exe,ITWindow,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,0,1,iTunes
- Save the file
- Restart the SetPoint and hopefully play/pause, next and previous buttons should work (at least they work for me)

Hi,
I tried opening it from the application folder and nothing happens. I have tried from the dock and the same thing. Unfortunately this is not the application that I ws intending to work on. This was running perfectly fine for me. I have a lot of music on it. I know all is still there because I can see it through spotify. I started looking for help with Face time with came up with a needing proper credentials in order to open. Now neither open after a 9 an automatic download of nine updates. At this point I don't know what else to do.

Hello llblake,
Fortunately, the process of installing or updating iTunes should not affect your library. The following articles can help with getting iTunes properly updated and stabilized.

I tried to download the itunes update and at first it would say i was missing msvcr80.dl so I completely uninstalled itunes and its components, then reinstalled it. Now it says I'm missing"Applle Application Support" How do I fix this?

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
