Windows 7 will not launch after installing itunes 11.1.5.

I initially tried updating itunes but it wouldn't so I uninstalled all Apple products in order per another post I found. Then reinstalled all products and itunes worked fine. I then shut down my computer for the night, then next day windows wouldn't launch.  I did a system restore prior to the itunes update and windows works fine.  I tried reinstalling itunes again and had the same problem.  So now I don't have itunes installed. Anyone know how to get itunes to not prevent windows 7 from launching?

My MBP (15", early 2009 model, 8GB RAM, 1TB internal drive) showed in Software Update as not needing any other updates, and I downloaded from Apple's site directly and installed iTunes 11.1.5 rather than doing it via Software Update (I've had some glitches with the 'direct' install from SU in the past, so I manually download updates from Apple's support website instead).
Hoping Apple will figure out what's wrong with this version under 10.6.8...

  • Photoshop CS4 will not launch after installing Yosemite.

    Photoshop CS4 will not launch after installing Yosemite. All the other CS4 apps open. I upgraded Java. Genius Bar could not get it to launch.

    Here's the fix I found, by way of an explanation...
    Snow Leopard prompted me on my first startup with the following error:
    "There is a conflict with the _______ font file. This font file contains a font name that conflicts with a system font required by Mac OS X to display onscreen text. You should move this font file to the Trash."
    The fonts it said were conflicting: Helvetica, HelveticaNeue.dfont, Lucida Grande, and Monaco. I figured Snow Leopard probably wanted to replace these fonts with newer versions, and so I clicked "Move to Trash" on all four.
    Apparently 10.6 trashed these fonts but didn't replace them. This was causing Photoshop to crash on load.
    So I restored my ~/Library/Fonts folder from a backup made just before upgrading and this time after a reboot I said "Allow Conflict" on all four dialog boxes and launched Photoshop... everything is back to normal!
    Not sure what kind of "conflict" it's referring to, but apparently moving these font files to the trash as OS X prompted me to do broke a number of apps. Should I report this as a bug?
    Thanks for the ideas!

  • IPod service manager will not start after installing iTunes 10

    iPod service manger will not start after loading iTunes 10. iPhone will not connect. I've removed reinstalled, wiped the registry reinstalled and deauthorized, removed and reinstalled from several different downloads. I have full permissions fo rservices and am administrator.. We now have three other units in teh office with the same issue.
    now what do I do?

    Don't know about fixing PitStop. However, have you tried a simple repair on Acrobat. If Acrobat won't open you can do that from the Programs and Features menu (Add/Remove Programs in OS prior to Win7).

  • Lightroom CC will not launch after install

    Hi,  installed Lightroom CC today twice but it will not launch. I uninstalled it, restarted then reinstalled it. In task manager you can see it show up for a second then it disappears. I have LR 5, PS CS6, PS CC, PS CC2014. Anyone having issues?

    Sign out worked when I did it correctly.  Be sure to go to Preferences in Creative Cloud & click the blue Sign Out button.  Then sign back on.

  • ITunes or QuickTime will Not Launch after Install

    I received my new iPhone 4 a few days ago & have tried & tried for the past days to make iTunes 10.6 work & also QuickTime 7.7.1.  They both install but when I click on the desk top icon a few seconds pass and an Error Message appears for iTunes & QuickTime that says "iTunes or QuickTime has encountered a problem & needs to close".  The "Error Signature" is as follows for the iTunes;  AppName: itunes.exe  AppVer: 10.6.0.40  ModName: gdiplus.dll  ModVer: 5.2.6002.22509  Offset: 0002 edde.  I have installed/uninstalled til I'm sick.  I have done the control panel Add/Remove in suggested sequence & also removed any leftovers from iTunes and QuickTime from my registry; still no iTunes or QuickTime 7.7.1.  The only QuickTime that will install & work is version 7.1.6.  I am running XP Home Edition, Service Pack 3.  I need iTunes desperately for my new iPhone 4 !!  Please Help !!

    Thank you soooo much for explaining the gdiplus.dll error I was receiving.  Before doing your recommended sfc /scannow procedure I did a little more browsing & found the FIX !!! The reason for iTunes not opening was the fault of a CORRUPTED FONT !!  It has taken me all nite to go through a gazillion fonts that I have installed on my computer on a trial & error basis but I did find the FONT that was keeping iTunes from not launching; Dr.PoDecorCyr.ttf , I started out by choosing the larger size Font Files making a new folder on my desk top & taking away & adding back to Windows Font Folder in the Control Panel until I found the culprit.  I hope this info will help others.  In Windows XP go to Start Menu to Control Panel to Fonts. Again Thank You Muchly !

  • Windows 8.1 Pro will not boot after installing iTunes 11.1.5.5

    It's a little hard for me to accept that this is true, but the symptoms seem to be pointing the direction of the title of this thread.  I have an all-in-one touch-screen Gateway computer that came with windows 7 (yeah, a win7 machine that came with touch, yeesh) and I put windows 8.1 pro 64-bit on it with a clean install (actually windows 8 was the clean install and then I did the free microsoft store upgrade to 8.1).  It has 4GB of RAM and has a Pentium Dual Core cpu @ 2.2 Ghz.  It was running fine with the previous version of iTunes, but as soon as I updated to iTunes 11.1.5.5 (and there may have been other apple things that updated too (ie quicktime of course), the computer prompted me for a reboot and froze during the reboot process (before it even shut down).  Then it had trouble booting into windows.  I ran startup repair to no avail and decided to do a sytem restore.  My most recent restore point was from a few weeks back, before iTunes was even installed at all on the machine.  I went back to that point and the machine worked fine again.  Then I installed iTunes 11.1.5.5 and the same exact problem occurred - it froze while shutting down after the iTunes install and then would not boot into windows 8.  I did another system restore and have not put iTunes back on.  The system is working fine.  I'm going to try to find out if there's a way to download older versions of iTunes, so that I can install it, but the bigger issue here is: Is this a legitimate bug/incompatibility with some hardware or software or driver that I have on this computer?  I run a computer support business so I know my way around but I don't have time to troubleshoot this from scratch.  Anyone else seeing this?  Apple employees...a little help here?  Any input?

    let it sit for about 30 min and still got nothing
    I then did a "hard shutdown(just pressed power button till it turned off the computer)"
    That may not have been long enough.  But a "hard shutdown" would definitely have been construed as a problem due to the update.
    Asus apparently is a known problem case...

  • ITunes 10.7 will not launch after installing the OS 10.6.8 security update 2012-004

    This evening I installed the Mac OS 10.6.8 security update 2012-004. I'm posting this to see if others have the same problem, plus to find out if there's a way to uninstall a security update.
    All was fine before the update, but now iTunes 10.7 won't launch as it quits unexpectedly and gives me a Problem Report to send to Apple (which was sent).
    iTunes will also not launch while logged in under other users. I tried rebooting.
    My iMac cannot be updated past OS 10.6.8. I can't live without iTunes.
    Let me know If I should post more system info.
    Thanks for the help,
    Carl.

    You could try downgrading iTunes to an older version?
    Just drag the iTunes.app to the trash and reinstall an older version, you should be able to find one in the Support Downloads, this may fix your problem.
    Note, iTunes 10.7 is needed for any devices with iOS 6

  • Windows will not restart after install of itunes & quicktime, what to do?

    I installed itunes and quicktime from the disc provided. After install the installer asked to restart the computer and I clicked yes. It has not booted since. Windows 2000 Pro locks up about 75% through process. I did hear the speakers activate then nothing. I have attempted a hard boot and restart in safe mode without success. My emergency disk did not work. Where should I go next?

    Post your question in the iTunes discussions:

    Update:  the trick is to try it over and over and over again.  CC desktop warns it wants me to register my product and complete a profile (bizarre.)  But it is updating the catalog now so I presume it will work.
    Have same problem.   Shows installed; I found "Adobe LIghtroom.app" which was installed today 1.51gb; when I click on it it flashes and then nothing.  I restarted the mac, restarted the CC app, nothing.   Very frustrating and makes me wonder if the Cloud solved any problems for me.

  • Organizer 8 will not launch after installing Windows 8

    I have PSE 8,0 and it was running just fine. Now I have installed Windows 8 and I can't open the organizer? Is there an explanation of this?
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    Generally, if you have PSE installed and then upgrade your OS over the top of the old one, you will have to recreate the application settings. Go to C:\Users\[User Name]\Appdata\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Organizer\8.0\ and delete the Organizer folder and try again.

  • FCE4 will not launch after install

    Hi All,
    I have read through the forums and haven't seen my exact problem discussed, so I thought I'd throw it out there.
    I just installed FCE4 on my iMac (2009 model), Snow Leopard 10.6.1, and I cannot get it to launch. Not even once. Other threads discuss a "launch once, then fail" problem. That's not what's happening here. This is a failure on first launch. When I click the icon, the splash screen appears, the FCE menu bar appears across the top of the screen, the info in the splash screen says it's loading various filters, widgets, and thingies. Then the splash screen and menu bar disappear and return me to my desktop. No error message, it just quits and goes away...
    I have repaired permissions.
    I have deleted and reinstalled the program.
    I tried to delete the pref file, but because I have never been able to successfully launch the program, it doesn't exist yet.
    I have tried creating other user accounts as talked about in other threads. Same problem.
    I spoke to Apple Tech Support yesterday and after an hour or so, the best they could do was "Reformat your hard drive and do a clean OS install, then try it." I am trying to avoid that if possible. I have a current Time Machine backup, but am afraid I will screw something up.
    Has anyone experienced this, or solved this problem.
    BTW, I did an install on my MBP and it works fine so the media is good.
    Thanks in advance!

    I did the update to Snow Leopard.
    I am not an admin user, however, I have tried installing as Admin, and on my standard account with Admin verification.
    I looked for the preference file in library/preferences, there is nothing related to FCE4 there. There is a FCE4 folder in that directory it has no pref files. it did have a .obj(?) file, which I trashed per another thread's suggestion.
    I don't think the program has ever gotten far enough to create the pref files.
    I may have to do a clean install, but I was hoping someone would have a magic bullet.
    I guess I may get to see if Time Machine really works....

  • ITunes will not launch after upgrade--click, bounce bounce, nada

    iTunes will not launch after upgrade--rebooted nothing--2 bounce icon
    then shut down all and unplugged, restarted--no change, iTunes still will not launch after upgrade
    iTunes current version
    on imac w/10.6.8

    I have the same issue.
    Allready uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, but the same problem occurs.
    Icon keeps bouncing, and all that's visible is the first menu-item in the top menu bar, named iTunes. Nothing is clickable though.
    The iPhone Configuration Utility doesn't seem to work either, it crashes on uploading an app to my iPhone. I guess it's using some of iTunes' libs or something.
    Does anyone know how to get iTunes working again? I'm getting pretty desperate over here...
    Thanks!

  • TS1717 My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

    I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
    iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
    Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.

  • Aperture (2.1.2) will not launch after 10.5.6 installed

    Quite possibly this problem happened because of something else I did. However I just now noticed today that Aperture will not launch after I installed 10.5.6 last week. This is the first time I tried Aperture since I updated.
    Help! This is VERY important to me as I do all of my photo ediing these days with Aperture. I have a couple of thosand photos waiting .
    Is it possible to download a new copy of Aperture? Yes, I am a registered owner and first paid the full $300 for this app.
    Any and all help most appreciated.

    try going through the application maintenance steps. You mentioned that you ran repair permissions prior to installation, this needs to be run AFTER any application install. As it could be any number of things causing the issue I have listed in sequence some steps to take for trouble shooting/maintenance.
    1. Repair permissions on system drive and drive with application on it.
    2. Verify and repair the disk with the library on it. If on your system disk run verify to see if it needs repair.
    3. Remove the application preferences found here:
    system disk/users/users/library/preferences/com.apple.Aperture.plist
    •test application
    4. CMD+OPT when clicking on the Aperture icon to launch it and choose consistency check
    •test application
    5. CMD+OPT and choose rebuild library
    •test application
    6. Remove any installed plug-ins from following directories
    system disk/users/users/library/application support/aperture/plugins/
    system disk/library/application support/aperture/plugins/
    •test application
    7. Hold the Option key down and launch Aperture and see if you get the option to create new library or choose library, try both of these steps.
