I can't run iTunes on Windows 7 ultimate: "the itunes library.itl file is locked."

then I try to run itunes and a message appears that says "itunes library.itl file is locked on a locked disk or you do not have permission to write to this file.
then I ran out and he said it was bundles. I then ran the program to check if I could run it on xp, but he also said that I had no programs supported. What I can do, or how to get programs supported? !!!

Hello darealguty,

Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

iTunes 9.0.2 version is compatible with Windows 7. You could try the following to see if it helps.

Go to the iTunes folder. Right-click and select Properties. Uncheck the read-only box.
Click on apply, click OK to change all subfolders. Click OK.
Now check and see if you can open iTunes.

If this is not enough, then you must go to http://www.apple.com/support.

Please let us know if this suggestion has helped to solve your problem.

  • iTunes error: the library iTune .itl file is locked. On a locked disk or you do not write to this file permission

    Original title: iTunes

    I have just updated from XP to 7. I downloaded Windows Easy Transfer, but it wouldn't work if I copied all my files on my external drive myself.

    Once Windows 7 had loaded, I started to transfer them to my computer.

    I tried just down load iTunes 10.1.1 from the internet, and everything seemed to go ok.

    But iTunes is not working and I get the following message "the library iTune .itl file is locked. "On a locked disk or youdo not write permissionfor this file."

    I saw this message on iTunes support and it is said that the 'My music' folder is located in the default location in Windows XP.

    Does that mean I lost my music and what should I do to be able to access/download the iTunes player.

    I have songs on different drives so I have quite lost music. I am simply unable to play my iTunes library because I can't access the drive.

    Thank you.

    P.s. I'm not very good with computers.

  • Why I can't run iTunes as a disc external HARD...?

    Hello

    I copied the iTunes library from my laptop computer based on Windows to a HARD drive.

    Since my Macbook Air that I bought just only 128 GB of flash drive, I don't want to copy the iTunes in the Macbook Air.

    Then, I pressed down option when I launched iTunes.

    I then select the iTunes library located on the external HARD drive. And I got this error message:

    "ITunes Libraray.itl file is locked on a locked disk or you do not have permission to write to this file."

    -What it means and how to solve this?

    Thanks and greetings

    Install software such as Paragon NTFS on the computer or the Finder, choose utilities go to menu and use disk utility to erase the drive, Mac OS extended (journaled) specification, MS-DOS or exFAT as you wish.

  • Cannot move iTunes library.itl on the desktop

    When I turned on my PC today, I found all my iTunes library has been deleted no aparent reason.

    Fortunately, I had saved a copy of the library and all the playlists in my hard drive, but in any case whenever I open iTunes, now it says that the library is corrupted, so I have to import the saved old library every time. My music is not lost, but it's annoying to do this, of course.

    So I read Apple's Support article on the recovery of the iTunes library, and I tried to follow the steps but when I come to step "Drag the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop", an error (I'll try to translate it because my computer is in Spanish, it may not be the exact words) :

    "This file cant't be moved due to an unexpected error." If you continue to receive this error, you can use the error code to get help for this problem.

    Error 0 x 80070570: the file or directory is corrupted or unreadable. »

    How may I order? I know the other option is to delete it, but I can't do either.

    It is without saying I have not iTunes open when I do this task, of course.
    Also, I looked at the error, but Microsoft did not have an appropriate response. He asked me if I tried to change the directory of the file, but I'm afraid I don't know how to do it.

    My operating system is Windows 7

    Any help is appreciated, thanks

    Second generation and later the Apple TV can access iTunes libraries that exist on a computer on the same network, they are through home sharing.

    Use home sharing to share content with other devices - Apple Support iTunes

    However, this is not related to music from Apple.
