ITunes Store crashing in iTunes 10.7

Hello.
I am using iTunes 10.7 on a 64-bit Windows 7 laptop. Since Wednesday iTunes has been crashing whenever I try to enter the iTunes Store. I get the message:
"iTunes has stopped working: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
Of course, Windows cannot tell me what the exact problem is, and has NOT notified me about a solution. I have absolutely no idea why this started happening because it was working perfectly fine before Wednesday. Extremely frustrating!
I've tried rebooting the computer, running the program as an admin and moving the file QTMovieWin.dll. All of these were suggested by people here, and all have failed.
However, there is one thing I can do. Since I installed iTunes in 2012, it has not been "properly installed" (whatever that means), so will uninstalling and re-installing work? I have been very reluctant to do this because it is very likely that I will lose my library of music and will have to recreate it from scratch if I do so.
What more can I try in order to get rid of this error? Thank you.

Hi Eternities,
So iTunes stops responding and Windows gives the error.
There are a couple articles I would check out for iTunes hanging.
iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
Using Msconfig to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8
The first has more general troubleshooting and the second more detailed steps for conflict isolation.
Best Regards,
Nubz

ITunes store crashing on iOS7

iTunes store crashes on launch on iOS7 for iPhone 5. Is this a known bug or and is there a fix. Want to give Apple some money in exchange for some music but unable to do so ;-)

Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
Then test to see if it solved the problem.

ITunes Store Crashing My iMac?

For about the past hour, whenever I click on the iTunes store link in iTunes and then click the TV Shows link my iMac crashes. It completely locks up and requires a hard restart and it only happens if I am in the iTunes store TV Shows section.
Anyone else having this problem?

Same problem:
Only occurs while browsing the Apple Store, in the TV Show Section.
The mouse remains mobile, the computer will still start the screen saver and such, but I can't change to any other applications, and I can't force quit anything (CMD-Apple-ESC doesn't do anything). It requires a hard reboot to restore the computer.
I am not using a Mighty Mouse - so that probably isn't the culprit.
This is a new aluminum iMac - not sure if that's a commonality or not.
I just noticed this today, but I don't browse the apple store every day. Perhaps it's related to a recent iTunes update?

After upgrading to iOS 8.2, my iTunes store crashing after selecting 'Films'.

When I open iTunes store and select 'Films', iTunes store crashes while loading. It is working fine on Music, Search, Tones filters. I think it started happening after upgrading OS to iOS 8.2.
I am on wi-fi.

Hello Wexxwoxx,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that after you updated to iOS 8.2, while typing a message your iPhone seems to be locking itself. In this situation, there are a couple of different troubleshooting steps that I would recommend.
First, I would suggest closing the Messages application completely by using the instructions in the attached article below.
Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
After the Messages app is closed, I would recommend resetting your iPhone using the instructions in the next attached article. After the reset, open Messages fresh and attempt to use as you normally would.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Have a great day,
Joe

I have now downloaded all of my CD's to my itunes library and have since only purchased new music using itunes Store. This itunes library is stored on an old Dell Desktop that I am getting ready to replace with an iMac; how can I move the music? 86GB
Is the music I downloaded from my CD's already in the iCloud or only the music I purchased on itunes?

This might help: http://www.macworld.com/article/1146958/move_itunes_windows_mac.html.

I downloaded iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5s 32 GB and now my phone won't connect to the iTunes store, and my iTunes Match is turned off and won't turn back on...

As per the Apple iCloud status page, they are having issues. Do not make changes at your end.

TS1424 HELLO! whenever i try to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop i get this message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is availabl

for a few weeks i have not been able to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop. every time i click on it it tells me it cannot access the store...not sure why. and says this: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.

I had this exact same problem. I found this fix and it worked for me.
Step 1:
Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll.
Step 2:
Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
Hope this helps you. I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
Good Luck.

I have all of my music on my dad's apple ID (on my Macbook pro and iphone). I want to start using my own apple ID (the one that my iPhone uses for everything except iTunes store) as my iTunes apple ID - how do I do this without losing my old music?

Authorize your computer with your Dad's AppleID.

I have the latest version of Itunes downloaded and installed to my computer. I have a music library already created for my replaced Ipod Nano. I've just purchased a new Nano. When I try to access the Itunes store from the Itunes program, it gets hung u

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, but it still gets hung up when trying to access the Itunes Store from the Itunes program.
I've been unable to register the new Nano or sync it with my library.

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

I just updated my iTunes to 10.5 and my iOS (iPod touch 4g) to 5.
Only the secure link to itunes store have failed, and I cannot connect to itunes store.

Oops, now iTunes can't open my iPhone because that is iOS5. Can't be bothered to restore that back to iOS4 so I am going back to iTunes 10.5 so I can at least manage my existing podcasts. I shall just use App Store and iTunes on my phone for Apps and wait until Apple provides a fix

Is iTunes endlessly saying "Accessing iTunes Store"? Or is something a bit different going on?

ITunes Store Metadata with iTunes 9

How do you get metadata for items in the iTunes Store using iTunes 9?
In iTunes you can select an item and choose Get Info to see all the metadata. This could be done for items that you owned and items in the iTunes store. With iTunes 9 I can no longer get metadata for items in the iTunes store. I used to use this to check movie quality before purchasing, to check song settings to make sure I could get artwork to match what I ripped, etc.

Afaik the iTunes 5.01 installer isn't available by Apple anymore.
But you won't loose your music if you loose your Library files (you will only loose your playlists and ratings ...)
Just launch iTunes
From Menu - File select "Add to library ..." then choose the folder that contains all your music (usually "iTunes Music")
You also might try (not sure if that will work) - again from Menu - File - "Import"; then choose the "iTunes Music Library.xml" file.

I've turned my iPad off, then on again, I've logged out of iTunes, and logged back in, I've updated my credit card information, but nothing seems to be working. Is this a problem within the app?
