iTunes not launching anymore................
A week ago iTunes 7.7.1 (the latest version just before V8), stopped working on my pc. When I say stopped working, I mean it won't launch. I can see the exe running in task manager - iTunes.exe, but the program itself is nowhere visible on the desktop.
I have tried the following to fix this.
1. Reinstalled iTunes (just before v8 came out), and did a repair. No change.
2. I have not attempted to remove it and then re-install as I don't want to lose all my configuration and playlist data. So my question is if I have to try a remove and fresh install, can someone please explain how I can backup my configuration via the windows explorer so that I can still have access to my playlilsts etc?
3. I downloaded iTunes V8 last night and installed and still no luck. The program will just not start. I can see the pc trying to get it going - the hard drive spins etc and I can see the exe in Task manager, however no program running.
Has anyone else run into something similar? Can anyone suggest what else to try to do to fix this?
I want to upgrade my iPhone firmware to 2.1 when that comes out and need to add a whole bunch of songs to my phone and now I can't do that anymore. This is very frustrating and annoying.
