I am unable to use Itunes because it freezes when I plug my Iphone 3g in.

Hi,
I needed a phone, so my brother gave me his old Iphone 3g. I instantly downloaded the latest itunes (10.5.3) and I purchased some songs and application at itunes store. Unfortunately when I plug my iphone in it freezes itunes and I can't put anything on the phone. My iphone has absolutely nothing on the phone, no songs, apps, contacts, nothing.
I have tried for about a week now. Looking at forums on the internet and downloading alternatives to itunes like media monkey and foobar and alot of other programs to be able to put music on my phone.I spoke to my brother and he had no troubles at all with the phone.
I have no idea what to do. PLEASE HELP.
PC/Laptop- HP Pavilion dv6-2109AX
Windows 7
Iphone 3g
Software: 4.2.1
I have tried plugging the iphone in different ports. I heard you need to plug it into a 2.0 usb port, but I tried all of them. I don't know if my laptop has 2.0 usb ports because it still didn't work.
I tried reinstalling itunes the correct order multiple times but that didn't work.
I tried deleting the crash files that I didnt even have. I don't have the appdata file to delete its contents, if I do I couldn't find it.
I had to delete my virus software and disable it while I plugged my iphone in.I restarted my computer multiple times and restored my computer a few times and also deleted alot of useless files and movies to make my computer run faster.
As soon as I plug my iphone in, itunes instantly freezes. When unplugged itunes instantly unfreezes.
Also I have the original Iphone charger.
HELP! WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
Thanks in advance. (:

My Itunes freezes when I plug in my ipod and wont verify or sync

My Itunes freezes every time I try to plug in my ipod classic. It wont verify my ipod so it can't sync or update it. I have to shut down and restart my computer to get it to function at all. I have had my ipod for awhile and have had no problems with it and my Iphone connects and syncs just fine. My Itunes is up dated with the latest version and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. I have reset my ipod multiple times. I can't even restore my ipod because it freezes so fast I cant get the restore started. Someone PLEASE HELP!!

Itunes application not responding when I plug in my iphone

I am on itunes 8.2 and when I plug in my iphone itunes just goes into application not responding.
I wait for a while and then unplug the phone and it goes back to working again.
On the phone there is no "Sync" message. In fact with the phone plugged in I can access the phones apps just as if it was not plugged in.
But initially when I plug it in, it does the double vibrate and shows the charging graphic so I know the cable is ok.
The phone is already on 3.1 apparently because some new features are there... like selecting multiple photos to email.
But I don't recall ever running any updates in itunes to make it use the new software as I read you were supposed to do.
I don't want to upgrade to itunes 9 because I read so many people having problems with it... but I wonder if the phone is no longer compatible with itunes 8.2
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
-Jeff

Do you know if the problems people have reported with itunes 9 was before the 9.1 release?
I've heard tons of people saying they were reverting back to itunes 8.2 because 9 was so bad.
Am a bit nervous about that update because of that.
But an applecare guy told me that the 9.1 was supposed to address those issues. I have just not heard anything about that actually fixing things though. Still seems like a lot of people are dreading the new itunes 9.
If you are an itunes 9 user, did you have any problems with it wiping out your library or any terribly long syncing times?
Thanks.

My macbook pro running OS X 10.8.3 freezes when I plug an adapter into the displayport, even when nothing is connected to the other (vga) end. Anyone know a solution?

My macbook pro running OS X 10.8.3 freezes when I plug an adapter into the displayport, even when nothing is connected to the other (vga) end. Anyone know a solution? I have used this adapter with a macbook air and it works flawlessly, but the moment I plug into the minidisplayport the macbook pro freezes with a little spinning color wheel that goes on and on. . .

Hello there, sarhang27753.
First thing that would come to mind to resolve the issue would be SMC and PRAM resets. I've linked Knowledge Base articles below:

How do I stop iTunes from coming up when I plug in the iPhone

I don't always want iTunes to come up, only for syncing, when I plug in my iPhone or iPad. I most often just download photos using Image Capture and don't need iTunes for that.
I see nothing in iTunes preferences (where it should be you would think) about disabling iTunes from starting up when you plug in the iPhone.

I'm being careful to rely on help with this as I have in the past 'done what is logical' and wound up destroying files and in a pickle. So I ask this one other related questions then:
If I want to back up to computer then the 'automatically backs up to this computer' really means nothing as the message across from it says it has never been backed up before even though it automatically syncs then?
This is very thin ice. I think I do remember in older versions of iTunes a checkbox like the one you mentioned first, but now it is gone.
Whew. I'm sweating out what to do next.

You may have an incomplete iTunes installation. Uninstall your iTunes and Re-install again.
If this still fails, try the following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components3. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch

After downloading and installing the 64-bit version of iTunes for Windows I get a "Congratulations, you've successfully installed iTunes" message. However, when I plug in my iPhone to synch it I get a message that says that I don't the 64-bit version??

After downloading the 64-bit version of iTunes on my Windows 7 machine I get the "Congratulations, you've successfully installed iTunes" message. However, when I plug in my iPhone I get an error message that says, in part, "...the required software is not installed. Run the installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes". I've been at this for hours, carefully deleting all Apple software (Apple Mobile Support, Quicktime, etc. and before each attempt to install the 64-bit version from Apple ( no third parties). Same result each time!!! Any ideas????

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does your device connect without that message now?

Itunes does not open when I plug in my ipod

itunes does not open when I plug in my ipod mini!
A window opens with the name of my ipod kiwi(E:) & a picture of a disk drive next to it.
I have to manually open itunes. No error messages pops up, so I can't figure out what's preventing the system from recognizing my ipod. In the system tray in an icon safely remove hardware if I it click my ipod ejects. My ipod still charges as normal.
Open itunes when this ipod is attached is checked off
Enable disk use is checked off
I ran a scan no malware
Windows XP

So you connect the iPod containing a hard drive. I would guess you are using USB, right? Then Windows opens a window (wow, that's repetative) that identifies this as a USB hard drive.
Am I close?
It sounds like you've told the iPod to act in Disk Mode. On the same preferences pane that you are telling iTunes to open, uncheck the box for enable disk mode. the mini should stop telling your computer it is a hard drive.
