Taken at face value, you're having trouble with a Windows operating system file there.
Perhaps try an sfc /scannow. For instructions, see the following Microsoft document:
How to use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Windows 7

I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

Please help me!! I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.
iOS: Unable to update or restore

Just reinstalled itunes due to need to fix msvcr80.dll error; now itunes wont run because itunes library.itl cant be read created by newer version itunes. how do i resolve this ?

just reinstalled itunes due to need to fix msvcr80.dll error;
now itunes wont run because itunes library.itl cant be read created by newer version itunes.
how do i resolve this ?

By way of experiment, let's first try specifically choosing a library for iTunes to open.
Quit iTunes if that error message is showing. Now hold down your Shift key, and then open iTunes. (Keep holding down the shift key while iTunes is opening.)
You should see a dialog asking you if you want to choose or create a library, as per the following screenshot:
Click "Choose Library ..."
You should now see a screen like the following screenshot:
Select the "iTunes Library.itl" file (shown circled in the screenshot) and click "Open".
Does your iTunes library open without the error?

My itunes wont work on my laptop

help itunes wont work on my laptop every time i open it it works for a few seconds then it says something about a windos error

Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Then See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
After you have Recovered your Device...Re-Sync your Content
Note:
To remove a forgotten Restrictions passcode you will need to Restore the Device as New...
OR... From a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....

New itunes wont run in windows 7 64 bit even after full uninstall and reinstall

after the new itunes 2.2 came out i have been unable to get it to open or run i have fully uninstalled all elements and reinstalled and still it wont run

it just ask permision to run program then
... that's interesting. Is that one of those User Account Control type messages?
I'd like to see that screen if possible, stew. Could you take a screenshot of that permission message screen (Hold down Alt and press the PrtSc key), paste it into a Paint document (or similar image editor), and save the file. Then reply here, click the wee camera icon, do a Choose file, browse to the file, click "Open file", then click "Insert Image".

ITunes wont run, since changed countries ?

Hi
I have just moved from NZ back to the UK, when i left NZ my iTunes account and program was working just fine. Now i am back in UK i need to change my store to UK etc, but since i been here i cant even get iTunes to run. It just gets to "not responding" instantly on startup. I read a few topics on here and tried running in safe mode, tried deleting pref files, tried the winsock reset and finally completely uninstalled iTunes and re-installed (quicktime too) and still no good, still does the "not responding" thing...
I wouldnt mind so much if it was just affecting my itunes, but i really need to download some UK apps (GPS for work etc) and without changing my counties in iTunes i am stuck on NZ store only..
If it helps my system is:
Windows 7 64bit / 4gb RAM
iTunes 10.5.3 (latest i think)
Thanks

Busy helpful forum this eh.......... /sigh

Before we go off the deep edge here, perhaps some clarification.
What is the brand/model/settings for the Canon camera that you are using?
I think that Hunt may be being jumping ahead here. Let me explain....
For example, the Canon SX1 lS generates files with the file name starting with MVI_XXXX.mov. These are AVCHD.mov files 1920 x 1080p30 and have no problems in Premiere Elements 12.
So, I would ask "In your case, is your MVI the file extension or the beginning of the file name?"
Thanks.

Itunes wont install on my laptop?

itunes wont install on my windows 7 (64 bit) laptop i have tried about a 100 times and not working

That's a rarer variation on this sort of problem.
(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 Mobile Device Support entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Go to control panel "Uninstall a program" and remove:
    iTunes

Then select the "Show hidden files and folders" and click the apply button and select ok and close.
Open your c drive and open the "users" file and then open the folder containg your selected computer name. After the file opens select the "app data" folder and then the "local" folder and right click and delete all Apple folders you see (itunes, quick time etc) note: these will be replaced upon re instillation. Then open the "temp" file and remove and delete all apple files that may be in the temp file as you did in your "local" folder.
Then download itunes 9 from oldapps.com/itunes and install. Once installed you can open itunes and update from there

HT203175 i just downloaded new version and then restarted the computer and now itunes wont run- it says it is a currupted or installed wrong. What do I do so I don't loose everything.

I was prompted to download newest version of itunes, which I did and the restarted the computer. Now it says itunes is currupted or installed wrong. What do I do so that I don't loose my music and apps.

Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now?

Itunes wont run and now i lost my cd drive

I installed itunes to my windows xp computer and after the installation I tried to run the program. It would not run and now I lost my cd drive. I deleted itunes and then in order to get my drive back I would have to use the windows restore program. But, every time I try to reinstall itunes it does the same thing... program wont work and lose my cd drive. Please help me someone...

Success! I've finally got itunes up and running on my computer. What I did was go to my control panel and clicked on 'other control panel options.' Here I found the java plug-in icon which I updated, it's pretty straightforward to do that, if you click on it, you'll find the option to do that. I then clicked on the Windows start menu and on programs which said 'apple software update'. I clicked on this and it said searching for software. It found the new version of Quick Time and a security update for it. I installed both of them and double clicked on itunes and instead of expecting it to show the usual error message it started launching! I'm well pleased. My cd drive is still missing but I should be able to find a way to restore it. Hope this info helps someone who's having similar problems!

PLEASE HELP iTUNES WONT RUN!!!

I have uninstalled and downloaed iTunes numerous times.
Before it just would not open.
I thought it might be a virus so i went out and spent another $50 on virus protection program.
I reinstalled iTunes again, installed service pack 2, and installed new verion of Quicktime.
I've done everything I can think of.
now when I try to open iTunes I get a message saying:
" iTunes requires Windows 2000 or later.
Please make sure compatibility mode is disabled in the Compatibility tab of the properties for iTunes.exe. "
I have a Windows XP and installed SP2 which is what the iPod box says is required.
I am so fed up.

Ive done as much as I can do and ive run out of ideas.
I dont know how to check the compatibility mode thing its asking me to check.

Itunes wont run because it says i am missing file: MSVCR80.dll help?

so ive recently deleted and reinstalled my iTunes due to an error with the program. both before the delete and after the reinstall it would not open and an error message would pop up on the screen saying that file MSVCR80.dll was missing from my computer.
not sure what that means but i would like to be able to access my media again. help?

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
