iTunes quit unexpectedly

My iMac is running Mojave and I just did the latest security update. Now I cannot launch iTunes. It "quits unexpectedly". Anyone else having this issue or have any advice?

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 10.14

Seems iTunes has become corrupt somehow, perhaps by an installation, or a setting unrecollected. So, reinstall the macOS.

Reinstalling the macOS:

1. First, Back up your Mac:

Create a Time Machine backup of your Mac, so that you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything go wrong with the transfer.


2. Then, Reinstall the macOS:

Nothing would be lost. It's just that items that have become corrupted or deleted, would be replaced or reinstalled back to where they should be. Go Here: How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support
