ITunes won't open?

1 Answer

Answer :

This will be very destructive. Like you lose your playlist and ratings. I’m going to post images with files that you should remove one-by-one until it works. Close iTunes first…... http://i.imgur.com/cmK4v.png Start with number 3 that is highlighted. If deleting those don’t help it is time to get desperate. http://imgur.com/FNtbw.png Move these to the trash if the above doesn’t help. Keep in mind you just need to move these. Put them somplace safe and you can move them back. I have a huge hang-over.. I hope that made some sense.
