ITunes opens with "Welcome to iTunes"

I've had my iPhone since August and all of a sudden last week iTunes started opening with "Welcome to iTunes" and a blank slate when I connect my iPhone. I figured out that I can manually start iTunes and sync my iphone with my correct files, but I am wondering how to fix the problem to get it working properly when I connect my phone.... anyone else have this problem or any ideas how to fix it?

Help, anyone else have this problem???

  • Itunes opens with error -50

    Itunes opens with error -50 on my Mac. Once open signing in causes error 5002. Signing in from App store just fails. My Mac pc does not appear to be registered anymore and I can't sign in. On screen Support buttons don't connect so can't contact support online. Tried all the work arounds in discussions but no joy. Even tried deleting itunes to start agin but you can do that apparently. For one work around I Signed in through Safari to change payment details but payment option was not displayed. Getting really p'd off.  All is ok on my iphone/ipad etc but not my main pc. Any printable suggestions appreciated.

    Found a fix that worked, didnt even need to refresh the network settings
    Click the Finder icon in the Dock.
    Choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
    Type:  /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Click Go.
    In the Finder window, locate the file named "NetworkInterfaces.plist" and drag this file to the Trash.
    Restart your computer.
    Once your computer has restarted, you will not be able to connect to the Internet. You will need to refresh your network settings to be able to connect again:
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu.
    Choose Network from the View menu.
    If you're using Mac OS X v10.4, choose New Location from the Locations menu.
    Click Apply Now at the bottom right.
    If your network connection requires any special settings, you will need to put them back in at this point. You would have received these from your ISP or network administrator.

  • TS2776 iPhone 5, Outlook 2013, Windows 7.0 64-bit.  Every time I connect my phone to my computer via USB, iTunes opens with the "accept our terms and service" then deselects the boxes checked under the INFO tab to sync my calendars, contacts...help?

    I am connecting my iPhone 5 to my Windows computer via USB.  This should open iTunes and start the sync process.  Instead of iTunes opening, I get the iTunes service agreement to which I must agree.  Then iTunes opens and begins to back up my phone.  It is syncing my photos and music (although the music thing is another nightmare), but under the "info" tab in iTunes, the boxes of which functions I want to sync are no longer selected.  Hence the computer and the phone are not sharing information.  When I select the functions I want to sync, I must either replace or merge.  If I replace, I lose the information I recently put into my phone.  If I choose to merge, then I have duplicates of everything.
    How can I resolve this problem? Why is iTunes acting like it doesn't know my phone?
    I'm using an iPhone 5 iOS 6.1.4, Windows 7 64-bit, Outlook 13, and the must current version of iTunes (because I've removed and reinstalled it twice already).
    Thanks for any help!

    After you'd run the Configure Classic instance did you run in the statement as stated in 'Oracle® Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) Part Number E10421-05'?
    java -classpath ORACLE_HOME_DIR\discoverer\lib\disco-config.jar;ORACLE_HOME_DIR\oui\jlib\OraInstaller.jar;ORACLE_HOME_DIR\opmn\lib\iasprovision.jar -Djava.library.path=ORACLE_HOME_DIR\oui\lib\win32 oracle.disco.install.config.DiscoUtil -oraclehome ORACLE_HOME_DIR -tnsadmin TNS_ADMIN_DIR
    I've completed an installation with the same steps (although I ran the config.bat file in as_1/bin rather than from the program files list and also I've the jrockit jdk installed)
    I've found that this fails with the error;
    INFO: This tool works only on Windows Platform. Exiting the program
    Which is strange considering this is Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit
    DISCO is running in the EM console but the URLs (as defined in the installation summary report) do not resolve properly. I was just interested to hear if you're installation was the same, this isn't the first installation I've done, they've all had a similar issue

  • Every time i turn on my iMac my iTunes opens with a window asking me to sign in with my password , how can i stop this ?

    Every time I turn on my Imac my itunes opens as I have set up to but a window pops up asking me to sign in with my itunes password , is there a way to stop this as it's quite annoying .
    Many Thanks
    A

    Correction: this is for automatic logon of the iMac itself.
    In SystemPreferences/Users&Groups  login items tab:
    remove the line
    iTunes  with the minus sign at the bottom.
    then also iTunes Match if you have it.

  • Itunes opens with library and purchased music missing

    About every two weeks to a month I open itunes and it says it is copying library. It says the library is corrupt and itunes opens completely empty. No record of any songs play list or purchase history. I have about 11 files in my itunes folder marked itunes library (damaged). All my music is still in my itunes folder and I can drag and drop them back into itunes manually (hours of time), or use a 3rd party program to copy from ipod 5th generation, but sometimes even the next day itunes loses all knowledge of itself. This started about the time i upgraded to 6 and continues to get worse, I have 7.1.1 now.

    If you had the hard drive from the original machine, a backup of the same, an iPod with the media, or a subscription to iTunes Match then there would have been hope, but alas no.
    For the future see Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy.

  • ITunes opens with delay

    Hi,
    Well here's my problem, that i've had since the beginning using iTunes:
    The program opens with delay, ranging from 30 seconds up to 10 minutes, sometimes even more. Sometimes, it will just not open at all...
    I have tried to reinstall iTunes, I have tried to open it after having shut down all my antivirus or adaware type programs, but it won't help.
    Does anyone have a solution for me? Pleeeeaaase.. I'm just not too good at sitting patiently in front of my screen, waiting that a program will feel fine enough to get going.. Thanx for reading me

    is your DirectX up to date? here's the Microsoft

    Microsoft DirectX
    if your DirectX is up to date (or updating it did not
    help), let's try running your dxdiag troubleshooter.
    go "Start > Run", type dxdiag and hit enter.
    does dxdiag report any problems? if so, what does it
    say? (include any error message numbers if it's
    returning any.)

  • ITunes opens with no reason

    Since I got my new iMac, or since I upgraded to iTunes 10 (which happened at the same time), iTunes opens erratically with no iPod or iPhone attached. It even starts playing the first song/book in the list that was opened in the last session.
    What can be done to avoid that?

    Hi bphillips2633!
    I have an article here that I believe will help you add these converted files to your iTunes library. That article can be found here:
    iTunes: About the Add to Library, Import, and Convert functions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347
    Follow the steps in that article to add these files to your iTunes library. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,

  • ITUNES OPENING with a pps

    hi, Ive got a weird prob with mail in Panther 10.3.9. when I get an pps attatchment in Mail instead of letting me see the presentation of the powerpoint, Itunes opens up instead. Ive listed this prob in Itunes hoping someone knows y this is happening and more to the point how to correct it.

    Press CMD-I
    In the Get Info window that pops up, find the "Open with" section. You may need to click on the small triangle to open this section.
    Select PowerPoint as the application to open these files, then click the "Change All" button.

  • I've created new User account on my PC for separate itunes library/account. Have had to change apple id to do this. When I connect to pc, itunes opens with CDs I've already loaded, but it doesn't recognise ipod. No left panel opens with devices. Help!

    Can anyone help? Two ipods with originally one itunes library and (I think) same Apple id). Now need 2 Libraries with separate account for separate buying etc. Recommended I create new library on separate PC User account which I have done together with new apple id. I have added this apple id to the ipod needing separate account. When I hook up, I can't sync. No 'Devices' left panel appears at all. I'm at a loss here so any help woudl be great. Thanks.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    If necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    or
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • ITunes opens with error message "Eyephedrine 2.60: unable to locate tm9J plugin" and won't sync my iphone (doesn't even show up when plugged in)

    ...also, iTunes won't quit--I have to force quit to get out of it.  but the not syncing my iPhone 3G is a much bigger problem!  Thanks for any
    help!

    Try the steps in this Apple article -> iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    Does the error still appear after after removing the plug-ins from the path mentioned below?
    /Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
    /Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
    Is the iPhone recognized correctly after stopping the Eyephedrine plug-in error? And is iTunes now able to connect to the online store?

  • Can I merge my Australian iTunes Account with my UK iTunes Account?

    I'm an Australian living in London and have an iTunes account in both countries.
    Is it possible to merge these accounts?
    What if both accounts could link to my @me.com account - or is .me not going to be around forever?
    Please Apple.. solve this problem with one universal email or account. For such a brilliantly simple company, this is a problem that needs a solution!

    Thanks for the feedback Ed.
    It was 18 months ago now that I moved over so inevitably I've setup a UK iTunes.
    With iCloud I now have 3 accounts - UK, Australia and @me.com!
    Surely there is a way to combine all three and have one universal password?

  • HT1727 Can I sync old iTunes account with a new iTunes account?

    I have a previous iTunes account with purchased music but the email address is no longer active.  Is it possible to move that music to my new iTunes account?

    No, you can't move content between accounts nor merge accounts - all content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it. You should be able to update the email address on the account (you can't use an address that is in use on another account), either via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • HT4796 how can i merge my pc itunes account with my macbook itunes

    I wanna use the migration assisstant but i want it to be on my main mac profile, the migration thing says it will create a  new user account (totally effin lame). My question is whats the quickest and easiest way to get my itunes over. I have 45 gb of music, 8 gb of photos, 2 gb of videos and about 6 gb of apps. I have a lot of stuff so i know it will take a while. Im considering using my dads passport harddrive and making a copy then copying it over to the macbook. However I have heard formatting is an issue when going form pc to mac. Blahhh I just want all my data on my mac, on my profile. Thanks a lot if you could help me with this
