I-tunes is not responding

Whenever I open i-tunes it always freezes and comes up with the message 'not-responding' regardless if I have any of my apple devices plugged in.

Lets see whether this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?

  • I tunes keeps 'not responding' when updating i pod

    i have tried god knows how many times tonight to update my i pod.
    it's the first time i have went to update the i pod since i downloaded the newest version of i tunes.
    every time i plug my i pod in, it says it's updating and not to disconnect, then i tunes just stops working, stops responding. the i pod still says it's updating.
    how the h ell do i update my i pod without i tunes screwing up?
    is there any way to revert to the last version of i tunes? or am i stuck with this crappy version (i didn't like it before it stopped responding, the only thing i liked was the fact it's now a blue colour, and not green)
    note to apple... maybe you should stop upgrading the software if it refuses to work.
    i've not paid money for an i pod i can't use. apple of course, will refuse to listen, cos they've already got my money.

  • I tunes not responding constantly

    Hi running a Dell Inspirion desktop. OS in Win 7 Home premium with 1 gig  of RAM. When I am running a program usually Spybot search and destroy a  scan and I try to open I tunes at the same time. it never responds and  opens. By itself I tunes will work. Can someone help me understand why I  tunes does not respond when other programs are running? Any help would  be appreciated. Thanks  in advance.

    I received a Norton update and since then my iTunes will not open. When I click on the icon iTunes appears onsceen but its frozen!? If I ctrl-alt-del it says that its nor responding?? The the following error message appears:
    saAppName: itunes.exe saappuer 6.0.0.1.8 szmodname: hungapp
    szmodver: 0.0.0.0 ofnet: 00000000
    I have uninstalled/reinstalled/uninstalled/reinstalled. I even tried loading standalone quicktime and nothing.
    When I tried to load my old itunes (from first CD) it says that "itunes Library.itl" could not be read as a newer version of itunes had been made or something.
    I have a headache!
    I have followed the steps on here i.e. turn off NIS etc but it still comes up and freezes.
    I plugged in my ipod, which still has the music on it thankfully, and it appeared in the itunes menu but thats as far as I have managed to get.
    HELP!

  • My I-Tunes fails to open in Windows 8.1 not responding is all I get

    My I-Tunes fails to open in Windows 8.1 not responding is all I get is this the best Apple can do for it's customers

    Is that attitude the best that you can do when asking for help from fellow users?
    Try dropping the attitude or help yourself by searching the forums.

  • Ipod Classic not responding in i-tunes

    My ipod classic is coming up with an error message in my i-tunes account stating there is a problem with this drive and that my ipod is not responding.
    Also, before I plug my ipod into the computer the itunes is working fine then when I plug it in, it goes to a hault and this error message shows up.
    I can't figure out why or what to do. We have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled and the same things are still happening.
    I'm not sure if it is the new version of itunes that's the problem or if it's because our computer is now windows 8.
    Any help would be appreciated. I'm hoping someone else has maybe come across this issue and would be able to help me.
    Thanks!

    I had this problem with my iPod Classic a few months ago. I ended up reverting my iPod back to factory settings.

    It can be that the library path, or files, are corrupted. What happens if you set a different path to save the library?

  • My iPad 1 is not responding. I restored to factory settings and when it says to hook up to I tunes it still won't work. I have restarted I tunes and uninstalled and installed and still not working. Help!!!!

    I restored to factory settings and when it says to hook up to I tunes it still won't work. I have restarted I tunes and uninstalled and installed and still not working. Help!!!! Before I reset it it would say not charging but it was still charging. This could be a hardware problem with the I pad.

    Explain exactly what "it won't work" means. The iPad does not respond at all? Does it turnn on? It is not recognized in iTunes when you connect it to your computer?

  • ExpressCard TV Tuner not responding in windows 7

    So I just recently purchased a new ExpressCard TV Tuner to access my PC.

    I also am on a PC that is running Windows 7, I upgraded from running Windows Vista and i remember my Card working on Vista, but not on Windows 7.
    I am wondering if there is a fix for this? Like a driver update or something.

  • Hi my iPad mini was working fine but now is just a blank screen will not respond to any buttons or connect to I tunes

    My iPad mini was working fine then screen black and will not. Respond to any buttons or connect to iTunes

    Plug it into the wall charger an wait for at least 30 minutes.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My I-Tunes is not working no matter what I do, please help!!!

    Hello, for about 2 weeks now my I-Tunes has not been working when I click on it. I use I-Tunes version 6(the latest free version). At first, when I clicked on it an error messege would pop up. I have re-downloaded I-Tunes at least three times and now simply nothing happens when I try to access my I-Tunes. I am extremely frusterated, I have over 3,000 songs on my I-tunes all put into special folders and it's very important to me that I be able to access it again! Can anyone help me? I'll pay!!!
    my e-mail is [email protected] if you wanna e-mail me. Thanks so much for any help or suggestions.

    I had loads of problems with iTunes, could see all but it would not respond at all.
    I downloaded Abexo free registry cleaner and Errorkill registry cleaner free for limited period with restrictions. I ran both and got rid of all the junk in the registry and then installed QuickTime standalone...all problems solved. May need to reinstall itunes AFTER Quicktime if this does not work.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT1338 server will not respond when trying to update

    The Software Update Server (macupdate.cg.ac.uk) is not responding.
    Please help this is the message i get every time i try and update my software now i have an iphone 5 my itunes needs to be updated but it wont because i need the latest software update so i can download the new version of i tunes. I am using Mac OS X 10.6.7 i am running fine on internet and am connected with good broadband speed.
    Thanks in advance

    You're saying that there is an issue when trying to use Software Update to get to 10.6.8, correct? An alternate way to apply that update is to download the 10.6.8 update from the Apple download site.
    Before running it, bring up Disk Utility, repair permissions, apply the update, and repair permissions again when done. With that, you can now install iTunes 7.

  • Hello.  Since accepting the upgrade to the current version of I Tunes (11.4) I have been unable to get the application to boot.  I receive the message that I Tunes was not installed correctly and Error 7 (Windows Error 193).

    Hello.  Since accepting the upgrade to the current version of I Tunes (11.4) I have been unable to get the application to boot.  I receive the message that I Tunes was not installed correctly and Error 7 (Windows Error 193).  I have uninstalled/reinstalled I Tunes several times and this has not resolved the issue.  I also uninstalled/reinstalled Microsoft.net Framework 4 since this was suggested by Apple support.  This also has not resolved the issue.
    When I reinstall I Tunes, I get a message that the “Service ‘apple mobile device’ failed to start.”  Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services.  I attempted to manually start the Apple Mobile Device service but get a pop up stating, “Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.”Unsure what I should try next. 

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Mobile Device Support, won't install normally.
    In your case I suggest you start with a clean download of the setup file using the direct link. If reinstalling AMDS alone doesn't work try tearing everything down again.

    Check out the article below to troubleshoot the issue of iTunes crashing on you upon startup. Start with seeing if you can start up in Safe Mode. If you are still having issues, try to open in Tunes in another user on your computer to see if the behavior still exists. One of the last troubleshooting steps is to remove iTunes; there is a link in the article that will assist you to sort you out.

  • Persistent Acrobat Reader (not responding) error

    Good evening, my name is Tom and I'm new to this forum so please bear with me.
    Since we took delivery of this Dell PC and I first loaded Adobe Acrobat Reader 10 it has never worked.  I'm running Windows 7 and Norton 360.  I estimate I have uninstalled and reloaded this program six or more times
    Every time I try to use Acrobat Reader I have to go through the "Do you want to allow this program........." step to get past the firewall.  Then a Reader window pops up and a small asterik-like icon in the gray space to the right of the document pane begins filling in from the 12 o-clock position.  It usually stops filling in by  the 6 O-clock position and then the "(Not Responding)" message shows up in the Acrobat Title Bar.  Here is an example from earlier today, about 1830 hours UTC on Wednesday, 11 December 2013.
    Meanwhile Task Manager is singing a different tune.
    So, this begs the question, what is AcroRd32.exe*32 doing with two sessions, one with 348K of memory and 25% of my CPU and the other session using 00% of my CPU and 5,228K memory?This is the status since 1900 Hours UTC this date. It's now 0222 hours UTC on 12 December 2013 and I've run out of ideas.
    I'd appreciate any helpful suggestions from the forum community.
    Thank you and good night (EST),
    Tom

    Pat, thanks again. 
    Please remember I'm using Adobe Reader 11.0 not 10.
    I unzipped your registry file and loaded it into this PC.  Then I restarted this computer and launched Adobe Reader.  This time the asterik-like icon completed 3/4 of a rotation before I saw the "(not responding)" error message.  Also, I have two entries in Windows Task Manager, Processes tab.  The first AcroRd32.exe *32 uses 00% CPU and 41,752K Memory.  The second AcroRd32.exe *32 entry uses 25% of the CPU and 6,924K memory.
    Thanks for providing me some progress toward solving this issue.

  • Photoshop Elements 9 not responding

    I am using Photoshop Elements 9, but I am beginning to get the error message that it is not responding.  What could be the problem and how to fix it?

    It could be any number of things -- but you haven't given us enough information to be able to help you.
    Are you running the 64-bit version of Windows 7? You may want to check out the 64-bit version of Windows 10. It runs like the wind on that OS!
    New computers are usually full of outdated drivers, temp files and fragmentation.
    Have you manually gone to Windows Update and downloaded all of the latest updates? Do you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements?
    When did you last clean and defragment your system? In my books, I recommend Advanced System Care from iobit. It cleans your temp files, tunes your registry and defragments with a single button. And it's free!

    When does it lock up? When you first starting the program or when you're in the midst of editing? What is the source of the video you're editing when it locks?
