It means that your iTunes is not working properly on your computer.

Try re-installing the program.

What OS are you using?

This usually happens when you have a virus on your computer.

If it does turn out to be a virus you will have to run a virus scan.

I don't think it's a virus because I was just using the previous version without a problem until I decided to upgrade it.
Now I'm getting this annoying message
"iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" and nobody from Apple Support is able to help me with the problem. Very frustrating.

Not if you have them backed up to a separate drive. iTunes is only a program and re-installing it should not affect your music files. But to be safe, first locate all your music files and back them up to a disc or a removable hard drive.

Couldn`t open itunes for over 2 months same message then solved it in two minutes. Delete all references on computer for Apple, itunes, i pod, quick time and real player. Switch off restart then reinstall as follows, real player first, then quicktime from apple on its own then i tunes. Whistling dixie in no time. Appears conflict may be between real player and quicktime both from apple.
