iTunes detects a problem with your audio configuration

The iPod is a portable media player. It has become increasingly popular ever since Apple introduced it in 2001. The software application has not only been used to purchase, download and view/listen to movies, music, audio books etc, but also used to transfer data to and organize your iPod and iPhone. iTunes has made it easy for users to buy movies that are not available in their own country. This is not only safer but it has also cut out piracy to a large extent. This however does not mean that iTunes is problem free. The application, which is available for both Windows and Mac OS, faces problems from time to time. Sometimes these problems render the iTunes data inaccessible. This data can of course be retrieved using an iPod recovery software.

The most common example of this is when you try to open iTunes (if you are using iTunes 7.7 or above), you get a message which reads:

"iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"

or

"-200 error when opening iTunes 7"

or

"iTunes cannot run because it detects a problem with QuickTime"

This would leave your data on iTunes inaccessible.

Cause:

In this case the problem is not with iTunes, the problem is with the QuickTime software in Windows.
