Itunes not working

Windows Vista2
Can anyone help a relative computer novice get to the bottom of a problem I

an experiencing regarding my itunes that will not open.

I have Vista, and up until about 2 weeks ago (when I last opened the

application) my itunes worked fine. However last week I tried to open it,

only to be faced with the following message:

Microsoft visual C++ runtime library

runtime error

This application has requested to terminate it in an unusual way.

Now I am not aware of why this should suddenly stop working, when it has

always worked on the new system. I have tried updating the latest version of

itunes, but to no avail. Can anyone help me as I do not relish the prospest

of loading my entire collection back onto disc.

Regards

Brad

Re:Itunes not working

You might get a resolution if you post to an iTunes forum. Anyway, see if

you can get more info on the error after it happens. Go to Start>Control

Panel>System and Maintenance>Administrative Tools>Event Viewer. Either

the Application or System log should report the error. In the error log you

should also have a link to Microsoft to search for the error.

Do you have all the latest Windows Updates?

Re:Itunes not working

Hi Martin thanks for the reply.

I believe I have all the latest updates. I found a post today on the itunes

site that detailed all the relevant steps One should take in trying to

rectify issues where itunes does not run. After following these steps

(includes 2 vista downloads, the new itunes download as well as one from

quickrime) I am still none the wiser.

Have tried to post on the itunes site, but am not able to as I do not have a

mac and therefore do not have the apple id no that I apparently need.
