Why does iTunes download Optimizer Pro and MyPCBackup?

And what the heck is PlusHD shopping??? I don't want to download this stuff when downloading iTunes!!

Download iTunes from here http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If that still installs that software, your computer has malware.

Why does Itunes encounter a problem and stops every time I try to sync my home videos - help please

Why does Itunes encounter a problem every time I try to sync my home videos - it just won't sync them - help please !!!!

Re-installing iTunes wont erase your folders, unless your iTunes is a very old version pre-iTunes 9 series.
I would suggest to download the latest iTunes, it would solve your problem as in this earlier post

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get aCode 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Updateentries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Next, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

Does it go through properly this time?

HT3209 Why is itunes downloading the HD and not the SD?

This article says "Conversely, if you purchase an HD video on an unsupported device, the SD version will be downloaded." I just purchased an HD video on my unsupported device, so why is it downloading the HD version? I wanted the SD version!!

I checked with the Genius Bar. It was a new dilema to the lady that was helping me. She took it to a back room and worked on it but it came out the same. She gave me some options for repair or credit for replacement.
I just kept the phone and put up with slowly charging it by plugging it in and then turning it off.
I couldn't transfer anything from itunes.
I finally got fed up and bought a new charging port for $10. and a toolkit for $3. I looked up a video on youTube for the replacement and did it.
That solved all the problems, it was the charging port, must have been some bad pins or something because it patially worked.

Why does iTunes match start over and over and over throughout a day?

iTunes Match not only restarts and re-does its magic from the ground up after "completing" its tasks Every Single Time I Open iTunes, but when it chooses to start it all over again, it redirects the dominant window to itself. In other words, when iTunes Match decides to start up YET AGAIN, it pulls me from whatever view of iTunes I may be looking at and features itself, announcing to me and the world that it has opted to begin analyzing my library yet one more time. Oh yes, iTunes Match, good for you, and thanks - however, I cannot get back to whatever view or organization I was just working in (say under the heading "Songs") because my iTunes program isn't equipped to get me back to where it just Yanked Me From For No Good Reason.
I am a lifelong Mac user and Mac afficionado who is trying to keep the faith using a Late 2010 15" MacBook Pro, but ever since I decided to go all-in on the service formerly known as MobileMe it seems my Mac experience has been degrading progressively. iTunes Match, with it's constant re-starts, interrupted playback, inexplicably greyed-out and unplayable tracks and flat-out crashes, is nothing like what my Mac experience used to be. It's disappointing, and it's no advertisement for iTunes Radio.
Currently considering whether to re-up iTunes Match or simply use a hard drive and forget about it for good.

Hi Jim, thanks for the response. In answer to your questions,
- I do not sign out of Match prior to closing iTunes
- The Match process seems to be ongoing at intervals throughout the given day and while it's not in the "background" as I wish it was, I try not to pay attention to what it's doing. Therefore I would need to guess that there are many, many times I close iTunes when the "current" Match process is underway and not complete.
- Yes, thanks for asking about the "Waiting" tracks. Yes, there are many and they remain as "Waiting" even after Match tells me its work here is through.
- My internet connection varies, currently 7.59 down / 22.81 up.

Why does itunes download already deleted apps from icloud?

Here is the order: I downloaded an app on my iphone using 3G. I delete the app from my phone. A few days pass by. I am in an area with WIFI. Both my phone and computer are on WIFI. iTunes automatically starts downloading everything I have on my phone that was not there during the last sync. I want it to do this.
Here's the problem: itunes is downloading apps I already deleted from my phone. How can I stop this? Does icloud not register that I don't have the app on my phone anymore?

If you truly want it gone, you need to delete it from iTunes/iCloud as well as the iPhone.
There is no setting for individual apps. If you don't want any apps to sync, there is a check box under the app listing in your iPhone's Apps tab in iTunes. Not sure if/where it is in iCloud.

Why does itunes download itunes extras twice for movies

Hi All,
I lost some movies so am having to re download again from the purchased section in itunes.
When i download i have been downloading all three versions of the film, sd, 720p and 1080p.
The problem i have it is downloads itunes extras for every version. The file is smaller in size for the sd which in understandable however the file is the same size for the 720p and 1080p so im guessing i have exactly the same files twice in the library.
Also when i look at my movies collection in itunes in shows the film three times! On one icon i can open either the extras or the film and on the other two icons only the extras. When right clicking on the extras icons it shows a file size on both which make be belive they are both sd versions!
Any help would be apreciated.
Thanks

Anyone?

Why does Itunes keep freezing up and stop working?

It is kind of getting old but my Itunes player (does not matter which one as I update to the latest version) has this nasty habit of freezing whether I am trying to listen to the radio or my own library.
It is now happening almost every time I use Itunes and when it freezes the only fix is to do the old Control-Alt-Delete.
I am running a 64 bit Window's 7 home premium and prefer using Itunes but you know if you does not work get something else
I have 4 GBs Ram with a 2.6 Dual Core Pentium

Just out of curiosity when you say iTunes sent you here, do you mean that there was a link to here in the iTunes application, or that someone from Apple sent you here?
There are lots of posts from general iTunes users on this forum so I'm curious to know if/how people are being misdirected.
Thanks
Tom

HT1848 Why does iTunes download what I've transfered already

After downloading a movie on my iPad, transferring to iTunes properly, the dang iTunes app still tries to download the entire purchase again! I have a very
limited bandwidth cap, and can't have this happen. ITunes 11. Annoyed I am.

Hello cebick,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you would like to disable showing the music that is not downloaded to your phone. You can easily do this by turning off “Show All: Music” in your settings:
iCloud and iTunes Match - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphb8d9fd5a6
View only music that’s downloaded. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Under Show All, turn off Music.
Cheers,

Why does itune download delete my disc drive

when i download itunes soft wear for my ipod nano it appears to delete my disc drive. then i reinstall my disc drive and it deletes parts of the itunes software. then i reinstall itunes and around and around in circles i go depending on which program i want to use. surely there must be a way of having both my disc drive available when i want to listen to a CD that is not in my library or watch a DVD and still have a fully working itunes for storing music, syncing to my nano and burning CD's? can anyone help.

I just started using iTunes acouple weeks ago after I purchased my first iPod. My computer was behaving fine up until I installed iTunes. After the install and a reboot, I could not burn any CD's nor load any music via my DVD/CD Drive. ??? What happened? I right clicked on "My Computer" and the Drive had disappeared from there also. I contacted Dell (under warranty), they shipped me out a new DVD-CD/RW Drive. Same problem, the Drivers for the Drive were in conflict with something(?). Just last night, after 5 evenings with tech support from Dell, and UNINSTALLING iTunes 4 different times. The problem is narrowed down to:
iTunes; after uninstalling iTunes, the DVD-CD-RW Drive appears again. But after a restart, it disappears again. When iTunes is installing itself it is changing Registry Files, what the mystery is: What are iTunes Registry Files CONFLICTING WITH?? The conflict appears to be with other Disc Burning Software. I'm going to uninstall some other programs tonight and see if that solves my problem. Such as: ROXIO, Windows Movie Maker, a CD-W Backup Program, etc.... Conflict in Registry files seems be with them.
I had to order an external harddrive to backup my computer and back up iTunes before the iTunes uninstall, because I could not use my DVD-CD/RW Drive, YES you will loose rights to your purchased items if you do not backup!!
sorry this is so long, I've been completely obsessed with this problem for the past 2 weeks

When I download a long album from ITunes containing like 20-30 tracks, why does ITunes sometimes segregate one track and create a separate album out of it. I can merge the track into the other tracks on a playlist, but I can not merge the 2 albums.

When I download an opera album with lets day 40 songs (tracks). Why does iTunes create one album of tracks lets say 1 through 22, skip 23 and then 24 through 40. Then a separate album with track 23 is created. I can merge them together in a playlist but not as a single album. I go into the info under the file menu for each and make sure the information is the same but they still will not merge.

I'm not sure why this happens, but I found a workaround. Below the album title it will list the artist(s). The issue seems to happen when there are multiple artists. For example, an Album titled "Over the Sea to Skye" has The Chieftains and James Galway as artists. Some tracks (for whatever reason) will list only one of these and result in the playlist showing what appears to be multiple albums. You can click on the artists and it will highlight. Paste in what is appearing on the other "albums" and it will then show as one:
Hope that is somewhat clear enough to help. Doesn't fix whatever the issue is but it is a workaround. For me this is only happening with CD's that I have imported.

Why does iTunes keep giving me bogus error messages. "Your internet connection is not working, check your connection and try again." My internet is working fine. iTunes is not working and will not allow me to download tunes.

Why does itunes store not pop up and not tell me why?

Why does itunes store not pop up and then not tell me why? i"m wondering if it could have anything 2do with me just transefering music with my flash drive?

Does it show in the Purchased section for downloading ? Click on the Purchased under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
If not then have you tried logging out and back into the account ? If that doesn't work either then try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

Why is ituned downloading the latest software twice and leaving my ipod in recovery mode? what happend to the first download?

why is itunes downloading the latest software twice and leaving my ipod in recovery mode? what happend to the first download?

Does the iPod work fine now?
Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
