10.5.3 update causes my iTunes to crash- help!

Since installing the last system update (10.5.3), my iTunes crashes about 10 seconds after I open it- every single time. Safari does the same thing. Other apps seem okay so far, but this is very frustrating. Other users appear to be having problems, too.
I tried reinstalling the update directly from the apple site- no help.
Any other suggestions?

For now and until Apple fixes the bug, the only solution I have found is to turn the proxy off in the Network settings. If you need to use a proxy server for work/school, you are best off with using Firefox. Firefox has a number of add-ons that allow you to turn the proxy on and off (for instance Switchproxy, which is very useful and allows you to turn the proxy on only selectively).

    Hey guys
    I have an Iphone 3G and I had (Currency app) installed version 1.0 and updated to 1.2 and it said "you must pay to upgrade to this pay accept. so I did but it was a free app and now my itunes is locked and I can't buy anymore cause it has a $0.00 charge it CAN'T charge $0 to my card so its stuck.
    I don't think I can fix this it needs to be reset inside by apples tech support. Any idea how I can get hold of them. do they have a email address for errors?
    Thanks for the help
    Sam

    If you ever get a receipt from them, they give you links in the email receipt to report problems. I also believe in iTunes under the help menu (or Store...forget what menus they have as I am at work) there is a menu item to report a problem.

  • What causes my iTunes to crash as soon as I open it

    What causes iTunes to crash as soon as it tries to open? I never had any problems in the past. It just started happening a few days ago. I tried to reload it but it still crashes. Any suggestions?

  • Why does my IPad 2 suddenly cause my ITunes to crash when i try and sync ?

    Strange question but suddenly plugging in my IPad 2 causes my ITunes to stop
    I tried the usual fixes -reinstalling ITunes, resetting the IPad, nothing made any difference.
    I also have the bug that keeps telling me 'my password has been entered incorrectly too many times" every time ITunes starts and even logging out of ITunes didnt seem to fix this.
    I have the most recent software on both the PC and the IPad 2 and I didnt change anything - all of a sudden it stopped working !
    Any help would be much apprecaited. I am away for several months to a warm place and I sort of need my travel media.
    I just want to watch the movies I already paid for here, I didnt change any settings or features that I ama ware of and I am terrified to erase my IPad since if I do - and I still cant connect I have nothing for several months
    Regards

    Do a FACTORY RESTORE...not from your back...
    Make sure you DON'T allow iTunes to  back-up your Ipad before this as it will Replace your back up with the funcky New app arrangement and soo on..
    Now after the Factory restore, restart iTunes and do a restore from the Back-p. AGAIN don't let iTunes do a back-up prior to this...

  • Bonjour is causing my itunes to crash

I have looked at previous posts and it said to go to Start, Run, and type in eventvwr to see what errorss I see. In eventviewer it shows my bonjour is failing and causing my itunes to close. I uninstalle and reinstalled it. Any more suggestions on a fix for this problem?

    These are the errors that show in event viewer when i look for the problem why my itunes wont sync with my phone.

  • When "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" is selected in "Preferences" it causes my itunes to crash. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Ok,
    This started happening a couple days ago. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing. I also disabled my firewall and antivirus to make sure nothing was blocking that connection. I read, in this community, that you could open itunes in safe-mode and turn off the "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" selection in the preferences menu. This stopped my itunes from crashing upon opening but I no longer have access to my movies in the cloud. If I select that option, as soon as it tries to connect, itunes crashes. Is there a fix?
    Thanks in advance,

    Try iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not in My Library.
    Also:
    Try Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Reset Cache.
    Try signing out of the store and then back in again.
    See if you are able to re-engage the "Show iTunes in the cloud purchases" option.

  • Itunes keeps crashing, help please!!

    so today I updated my software (included quicktime, itunes, and a security update) and even downloaded the safari 3 beta. so after I installed the safari 3 beta, everything with safari worked fine. after installing itunes 7.2, it would keep crashing. so I figured the problem was with 7.2, so uninstalled it and reinstalled 7.1, kept crashing. so then I uninstalled and reinstalled safari 2, thinking that would fix everything. nope, itunes keeps crashing. any ideas, please help, thanks

    I actually figured it out. I reinstalled my itunes to 7.1 and then installed 7.2 for the heck of it. and then I realized (after reading how some plug-ins have been screwing it up) that I had installed a plug-in a long time ago and had forgotten about it, so I simply deleted that and everything is fine. So, to the guy that's having the same problem, make sure you don't have any plug-ins installed and if so just delete them.

  • Had my iphone 4 stolen and now have iphone 3g but it wont restore and keeps coming up with error 1015! My laptop has the latest updated version of Itunes? Please help

    I had my iphone 4 stolen and have been lent an iphone 3G, I have tried to restore the phone but its coming up with error 1015 and wont restore. I have the current Itunes software on my computer and there are no further updates to be done.  Please help

    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.  Very rarely this error is caused by a hardware issue and requires service.

  • 10.6.8 update causes bluetooth to repeatedly "crash" while using headphones

    I'm having severe problems with bluetooth "crashing" during headphone use, causing bluetooth to become "bluetooth not available".
    This problem is very frustrating, causing me to stop using my Sony DR-BT101 headphones with my iMac. I've tried resetting the PRAM and the SMC, but the problem still persists. In fact, last night, after resetting the SMC for what seems to be the millionth time, my bluetooth became "unavailable" about 10 minutes into using my Sony headphones, or 15 minutes from the SMC reset. But It's not all bluetooth activity that causes this problem. I use my Magic Trackpad all day without any hiccups. It's only when I use the bluetooth headphones that bluetooth crashes.
    But I use the term "crash" loosly, since I can't find any problems identified in the console, and the bluetooth diagnostic utility doesn't work when the bluetooth controller becomes unavailable. I'll be watching a movie with my Sony headphones when all of a sudden silence, followed by a "lost connection" message from the Magic Trackpad. I check the bluetooth icon in the menu bar, and it's "Bluetooth not available" all over again.
    Does anyone have an insight as to some solution to this problem? I was hoping that the last update to 10.6.8 (HDMI) might've fixed the bluetooth problem, but no luck.
    Thanks.

    Apple might fix the problem with SL; they did release the 10.6.8 Supplemental Update, which fixed an HDMI problem. So we might get a fix.
    Don't know if this problem affects Lion. I haven't read much about it, since I'm not upgrading for another few months.

  • Acrobat Reader 11.0.07 update causes LabVIEW application to crash

    Hi All,
    I wrote an application that uses the Adobe ActiveX element to display a PDF.
    This code used to work fine, but when I updated my acrobat reader from 11.0.06 to 11.0.07 it causes the application to start very briefly displaying the icon in the taskbar but then close (without an error or warning notification).
    When downgrading to 10.0.06 the problem was solved.
    Perhaps this can be of help for others who are experiencing problems with LabVIEW / Acrobat Reader.
    Chris

    This is a known problem that everybody is yelling about and the solution is to not upgrade to 11.0.07. You don't have to all the way back to V10. 11.0.06 works fine. Just remember to configure Acrobat to not automatically update itself.

  • IOS4 update causes iPod app to crash

    The iPod application crashes when I try to start it.

    I've had ios4.0 for awhile now and this never happened. Last night I downloaded a new song straight to my iphone (first one straight to my phone since the update) and now my ipod does what you're all saying it does.
    My problem is I won't be able to get to my itunes laptop for 10 days. Will this still work if I download itunes to my work laptop and then just plug it into that? Or will this require a full sync? I don't want to sync my phone to my work laptop.
    Also, if I did do that, would it be easy to sync it back to my home laptop and erase everything off my work laptop?

  • 10.6.5 Update causing QT apps to crash

    I think the 10.6.5 update is causing my Nokia QT apps to crash with the following message:
    Exception Type: EXCBADACCESS (SIGSEGV)
    Exception Codes: KERNINVALIDADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000
    Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
    plus a long list of other info. I did a file permissions repair, a disk repair, and reinstalled the 10.6.5 update manually, but the problem is still not fixed. Anybody have any ideas?

    Can't help with the CUPS issue, since it's not occurring here. If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
    I will register for the developer program tomorrow. Do you know someone who knows about CUPS?, it might be helpful to sort this problem out. Should I take the sledge hammer approach and do a clean reinstall for OSX? Also there's a chance that this problem might be related to Apple portables only, since the other user is having the same issue that I do in a MacBook Pro as well but his MacBook is the 17" inch one but still there might be one common denominator here.
    I really hope this thread gets seen by more users in this forum, to see if more information surfaces about this problem.
    Anyways, thank you for your assistance.

  • Flash updates cause Windows 7 to crash

    I generally leave my HP laptop in Hybernate mode over night. (Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit)
    I have noticed that every few weeks when I go to start up my laptop in the morning, I will see the black screen that says that Windows shut down abnormally and I am given the option to start in Safe Mode or Start Normally.  I always just start normally.  Then when windows starts up and I login I see a Flash Player update box telling me that there is an new version of Flash waiting to be installed.
    Since I have see this same Flash message on several crashes over the past few months, I am almost certain that Flash has something to do with the problem.  I have seen this same scenario on another Windows 7 laptop (Windows 7 Home Edition 32 bit) as well.
    Both computers are running IE9.
    Has anyone seen this before?  Any suggestions about what might be the cause of the problem?
    Thanks,
    Gary
