Itunes Crashing on startup

Hi
I installed the latest version of itunes for my 64 bit Vista and it crashes everytime that i try to start it up. I would get the message that Itunes Has Stopped Working. I googled the problem and got the vbscript issue and tryed that but it did not work. Now i get a buffer overrun detected message from quicktime. I believe that this might be the issue that preventing the startup of itunes so I uninstalled all of the codecs that I have installed and reinstalled itunes and quicktime but still no luck at starting it.

Does anyone else have this problme and might know how to fix it?

Thanks

Re: Itunes Crashing on startup

Hi rich2103,
Welcome to the forum!
Here is what I would try:
1. Uninstall I tunes then reboot
2. Uninstall quicktime then reboot
3. Go to C:\ Program Files directory and remove folders named Apple and Quicktime and Ipod.
4. Go to Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes and reinstall I tunes.
Hope this helps. Please let us know!

Re: Itunes Crashing on startup

I had the same problem, apparently iTunes is not compatible with 64bit Vista yet. Running it XP compatibility mode made no difference.

I found these which may help, but I've not tried them yet (too many other problems to sort out!)
