After Installing iTunes, every other program on computer becomes iTunes?!?!

I have a brand new Acer Aspire laptop. I installed the newest iTunes 9.2 and it worked fine for about a week. I turned on my laptop, and every program's icon was the iTues icon and when I tried to open any of the programs, iTunes would open.

I just posted a similar thread here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5091886, since we are both on 64 bit Windows, I think we might have the same problem.

  • Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing!

    Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • After installing itunes every icon on my screen becomes an itunes icon and no matter what you hit only the itunes page appears.

    I have a Dell 570 PC.  I use internet explorer and Yahoo.  When I finish installing iTunes every icon on my screen becomes an iTunes icon. No matter what icon I hit only the iTunes page appears.  Help

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Your MacBook already comes with iTunes. What iTunes is telling you is probably to update it to the most recent version, so open  > Software Update, and install the most recent iTunes version, in this case, 11.0.4.
    Enjoy your new MacBook Pro

  • How can I get an image from the screen? Like screen printer in PC to pasting after in word or other program.

    How can I get an image from the screen? Like screen printer in PC to pasting after in word or other program.

    If you do Cmd+Shift+3 you'll get a full screen image saved to your desktop as a jpg file.
    Also, you can use Cmd+Shift+4 and you'll get a cursor which you click+drag to draw a box. When you release the drag the boxed in area will be saved to the Desktop as a jpg file.

  • Other programs would not load itunes music

    I used to own a macbook then i got an iMac and copied everyting to it. now when i use iphoto or other programs music from my itunes library would not load. only the content purchesed from itunes store. any one can help?

    When I am in garage band I can not load my iTunes library to make a ringtone.  What do I need to do to change this?
    Which version of GarageBand are you using?
    You should be able to drag iTunes songs directly from the Media Browser to the track area in GarageBand. There are two exceptions - you cannot drag protected songs to GarageBand (with Kind: Protected AAC) and you cannot drag songs, that are not locally stored on your Mac but in iCloud.
    All there songs should be visible in the Media browser and you should be abe to drag and drop them, at least in GarageBand 10.

  • Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

    Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

    I see the printer, in blue when I click on the hardware tab. Actually there are 2 things listed that have to do with the printer.
    The first one is called:
                    HP Photosmart Prem C410 series (DOT4PRIN.... and under the Type it is listed as IEEE1284.4...
    The next is listed as:
                    HP Phototsmart Prem C410 series and under the Type heading it says Printers.
    I don't know which one to pick.  So when I choose the name highlighted in blue, what do I do to change the name?

  • Mail can't connect to servers, but every other program can

    I've seen a lot of posts about problems with Mail where the Connection Doctor says there is a connection to the server. I suddenly can't connect to any of the servers that download to Mail (so it is unlikely that I went in and changed all of the settings), but I can connect to the internet with every other program, and can check my .mac mail online.
    The problem started WHILE Mail was open. I checked mail at 8.30 and it was fine; at 9.00 I was no longer able to send or receive mail.

    Suzanne,
    Can you still send, is it only receiving that is stymied?
    In System Preferences/Advanced/Proxies has anything gotten selected?

  • Capacity after installing 4.0 "Other" takes up over 2GB

    After installing 4.0, "Other" which I assume is 4.0 now takes up 2.11 GB of space on my 8GB iPod Touch. That seems like an awful lot of space for just the operating system. Is there any way to get back more space so I can have more fun? Or, is "other" something else that I don't know about? Enlighten me.

    As already mentioned, only a restore can reduce the big "other" section. Something went wrong during the sync process, that's why it got that big.

  • My iphone 4s is stuck on connect to itunes, is not recognized by computer or itunes

    my iphone is stuck on the "connect to itunes" loading screen, and when it's plugged into my computer, itunes and the computer are not able to recognize it. when it is plugged in, it gets a "USB device not recognized" and in device manager, it shows up as an "unknown device". I have read and tried everything in http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, as well as uninstalling and re-installing itunes and all it's components several times, but nothing has helped. Please help!!!

    The iPhone has gone into recovery mode and you have to restore by connecting to a computer with iTunes and follow the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.  If you do not have a computer with iTunes, a friend with a computer with iTunes, can you get to an Apple store genius bar and see if the techs will restore for you?

  • Why will iTunes not start after installing latest updates on a windows computer?

    I got the usual notification that an update for iTunes on a windows 7 computer was available and told it to install
    It went through the motions and seemed to install,. but when I tried to open iTunes on completion I got the message below.
    I subsequently removed iTunes and reinstalled after manually removing various iTunes folders, then reinstalled iTunes with the same result of the error message so I removed iTunes again and installed an older version of iTunes which worked fine until yesterday I was notified of an update for the iCloud, which I installed and am back at square one with the same error message.
    I have tried to send an e-mail to Apple but they make it virtually impossible, so I would appreciate any advice anyone can give. I cannot be bothered with all this mucking avbout every time there is an upgrade
    Thanks, Mactoshb

    Hi, I carried out the advice and after reloading, Itunes is starting OK but I could not delete most of the files and folders mentione,d constantly getting the message that they were open in some unspecified program and to close it to continue, problem was I had no idea what the program was that they were open in.
    However I have Ashampoo uninstaller installed and it identified various programs associated with Apple and after uninstalling them I reinstalled iTunes and it is working fine now.
    Question, am I going to get this cobblers every time Apple offer an upgrade?????
    Anyway thanks for your help and hopefully this posting will help others, as I doubt I am unique and others will have the same problem, Time perhaps Apple sorted it out

  • Computer freezes upon playing itunes with other programs open!!!

    When I run itunes with only a few other programs open, such as internet explorer, my computer completely freezes and will not even allow the ctrl/alt/delete shutdown. This problem also occurs when I have been running itunes by itself for a few songs. My itunes library is about 13Gb in size and is organized by itunes (i.e. through the preferences option) in ACC format. My computer is fully cabable of handling the requirements of this program - or so I thought - with an 80Gb hard drive and 512RAM. My suspicion from looking at the task manager, however, is that itunes is a RAM hog taking up an average memory usage of 40,000 to 45,000 K. My computer is not at all prone to freezing and operates like a dream without itunes running. For starters, how do I fix this problem so that I might keep itunes? Some additional logistics of my problem are listed below and I hope they are of help in solving this problem, but I partially suspect that this issue stems from my large quantity of songs organized by itunes because it didn't freeze when my music file size was smaller (i.e. 4Gb) Thanks.
    -I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Quicktime.
    -I have tried msconfig, but too many possibilities present themselves for a potential program inhibitor.
    -Firewall and Antivirus software by symmantec.
    -Have Divx, but doubt this to be the problem because it was installed after.
    -Have been getting very depressed that this is such a problem.
    -I don't want to lose itunes, but am running out of options.

    iTUnes, in basic terms, does not play nice with the "Fast user switching" feature in windows turned on. THis feature (If memory serves me right) is automaticly turned on in windows when you create another user account. to turn it off, goto control panel>user accounts>change the way users log on and off.
