iTunes problem

Recently I have had problems with iTunes. When I launch it I get opening iTunes and then it goes to Checking iTunes Library and just stops there. No matter how long I wait iTunes does not open. Then to get out of this I forcequit iTunes. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

iMac, OS X 10.11

What do you use iTunes for exactly, Apple has abandoned it.


To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...


Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.


Does it work in the new account?
