iTunes upgrade 12.6 crashes immediately.

Just updated to iTunes 12.6.1

It just crashes. Won't open at all. I use Bose wireless headphones, so I tried turning those off. No difference.

I have never liked how it forces me to use iTunes when I switch on my wireless, noise canceling Bose headphones. But now iTunes won't work at all no matter what.

Using Mac OS 10.9.5 (it supposed to work with that version)

Mac Pro Late 2013

32 GB Ram

3.5 GHZ 6 core Intel Xeon E5

Thanks Steve,

I can't check if your solution works since I moved on and updated the OS. Once I did that everything worked fine.

Appreciate the help!

Post a copy of the crash dump here.

Hi Allen,

I can't post it because it says it has "illegal characters". Sorry for the newbie question, but even if I tried to paste into a text file, zip it and then attach, it won't send, so what would you recommend?

iTunes cannot be opened because of a problem.

Check with the developer to make sure iTunes works with this version of macOS. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and macOS.
