Can't install iTunes 11 on Widows 8, 'iTunes has stopped working' error message

Two months ago, I bought a new computer that uses Windows 8. I was running iTunes 10.6 on it fine until today, when it crashed for some unknown reason. Every time I've tried to open it again, I kept on getting a 'iTunes has stopped working' message. I've uninstalled 10.6 and tried installing iTunes 11, but keep getting the same 'iTunes has stopped working' error message with no other details. I've tried installing it as an administrator, but got same failed results.
Any help?
Thanks, Mike

Same problem here! Moreover, for some reason, the pictures in my iPhone 3GS somehow have been divided into 2 folders, Photos and Medialibrary. And when I open iPhone as a folder through the explorer I can see only the Photos folder, but cannot see the Medialibrary folder which stores the photos taken before updating/upgrading the iPhone and getting separated folders!!! What the hack with all of this?!!! When I connect iPhone to PC it automatically opens iTunes and starts syncronizing it, but at the process of OPTIMIZING the photos (and according to the number of photos it shows, I see that it tries to syncronize that invisible Medialibrary folder) the process suddenly stops and error message pops out Tried the sync test, tried the button DEBUG in that pop out message, but NOTHING HELPS!!! Also, when I open the Medialibrary in my iPhone, the screen get sblack all through scrolling it down, only the video clips are shown there... >.<
So, could you, apple developers, please, explain WHAT THIS PROBLEM IS ABOUT?!!!!!! FIX IT! I am getting ****** of to spend hours at the computer and reading those lame advises which do not help at all! I have my own things to do except reading your support websites. And I payed for the product ready to use, but not a halfproduct which problems should further be solved somehow by users..

ITunes has stopped working error message on my Dell Latitude E6520 when trying to sync photos to my iPhone 3GS. Why?!

For some reason, I keep getting the "iTunes has stopped working" error message on my Dell Latitude E6520 when trying to sync photos to my iPhone 3GS. I am using Windows 7 on my 64-bit computer. iTunes will begin to optimize the photos in the folder I have directed it to (I am trying to load almost 3000 photos and videos), and it will go through optimizing all of them singularly, then get to the step where it says "optimizing" again, but does so in bigger groups. It will get to about 2000, and then the error message "iTunes has stopped working" will pop up, and say that "Windows must close the program and will search for a solution, and if it finds one, it will notify me". Why can't I sync these photos, and what can I do? Thanks so much for the help, I really appreciate it!

How can I fix a "Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working" error?

Windows 7, Firefox 30
After changing how Firefox handled cookies (changed to forbidding 3rd party cookies, asking permission to set cookies), I rebooted my system, and Firefox would not start - I got the error message in the question. I uninstalled Firefox, and then re-installed, and Firefox ran fine. After some hours, I closed Firefox and rebooted the system, and again, Firefox hangs upon start, and I get the Plugin Container has stopped working error message.
Since Firefox won't work on my Windows desktop, I'm using my Linux desktop to look here for help. The problem details reported are:

Thanks in advance!

plugin-container.exe is crashing repeatedly. The error code is 0x80000003, the faulting module is mozalloc.dll, version 33.0.0.5397, fault address 0x00001425. Hardware acceleration is disabled, and I have disabled all plugins in an attempt to cure the problem (only Acrobat and Flash were enabled, and Flash is up to date).
(Edit) I'm running EMET 4.1 - if this is memory-related might that be significant?
Here are some crashes from the past few hours (many more if you want them)

The crashes are intrusive but Firefox itself is not usually affected - so isolating the plugins works as intended.
(I tried creating a separate thread for this but the process stalled at Stage 3)

Windows keeps giving me "itunes has stopped working" error message when I start itunes? How can i fix this?

After downloading the newest version, 10.6.1, whenever I open itunes I almost immediately get a "itunes has stopped working" error messsage, in which the only option is to hit the "close the program" button. Simply closing the error message closes the program as well. I am operated under windows XP with the latest updates (or so the updater tells me). It seems like its getting stuck trying to send me a new user agreement because dont you have to agree to one for every new update? It just can't seem to get past that point. I tried opening it up in safe mode but that didnt work either. Any help would be greatly appeciated.

Looks like itunes was still trying to communicate with my iphone and got confused when it couldnt find it. Found this in another post and it worked great.
Solution:
Make sure you are not connected to the internet and then open itunes. Sync your phone and then enable the internet again. Then stay connected to the internet and close your itunes and reopen it. Bam problem solved.

Fresh Install Mac - Licensing for this product has stopped working Error: 6

We just got the new macbook pro refreshes at work and decided to make the switch to standalone CFBuilder.   We downloaded the trial and installed. On launch we get this error, "Licensing for this product has stopped working Error: 6". Every macbook had the same result.   All are running 2 Ghz Quad Core i7 with 8GB of ram.   All of them get the same error.    All have a fresh install of 10.6.6.   Other than installing Air before the CFBuilder install they have no other applications installed.   Other than Air, there are no other Adobe products installed. All CFBuilders were installed under an admin account.
We've tried all the troubleshooting.   Permissions, LicenseRecovery, Setting the clock back to 2010... we even tried reinstalling OSX, then installing acrobat, then air, then CFBuilder with the same result every time.   We even activated the root account on the system and installed under root. Same result every time.    The Flexnet service never gets created unless we use the License recovery tool.   If we install the updater it still makes no difference.
All options for CFBuilder are grayed out under help.   Registration, Deactivation, Updates...
Any suggestions?

Thanks for posting and letting me know. Yes, it is crappy to have to work-around it like that. I noticed when I installed
Builder that it over-wrote some newer files, but I said "Okay to All". I'm using CS4 not CS5 and my newer files were probably better. I'm glad you got your program working at least. My problem is I started my first Project at the wwwroot level, like all the instructions say. It wasn't until I saw Ben Forta's video of it that I realized I was supposed to start a new folder within the wwwroot folder as my Project folder. Now I can't get rid of my first Project folder without DELETING all of the files in wwwroot, WHICH I CANNOT DO. MANY OF THE FOLDERS THERE ARE WORKING WEB SITES! If you know of any way to detach that original Project, I'd sure like to know how to do it.
Thanks,
Tedra

Can only synch a small number of songs at a time -- more than 20 or so yields "itunes has stopped working" error message.

When I try to synch more than a small number of songs at a time 20-30 or so), I get the error message "iTunes has stopped working." This happens on my iPod, iPad, and iPhone, so I'm sure it's an iTunes or computer issue. I'm using a PC with Vista.
I have reinstalled iTunes many times. I have also taken care to delete all iTunes related files from my registry. Any suggestions? It is a pain to manually synch my library in batches of 20 songs at a time. If someone has a solution to this, I would be SO GRATEFUL.

i found the problem. ipod doesn't like my new combo usb/firewire hub. plugged directly into USB card on computer, problem went away. yay.

"iTunes has stopped working" error message during syncing

ITunes has stopped working error message

I WANT TO LISTEN TO MY MUSIC!!
I have spent all morning looking for solutions to this problem! uninstalled everything to to with Apple, reinstalled it all again and still nothing!!
When are Apple going to pull their finger out!
The Error message appears as soon as I click for a CD to be copied. I updated my iTunes this morning to the most recent version and that is when the problem started.
Can anyone help?, Thankyou

The Error message appears as soon as I click for a CD to be copied. I updated my iTunes this morning to the most recent version and that is when the problem started.
There's a bug with 10.1.0.54, Danni, that is causing "iTunes has stopped working messages" (citing CoreAudioToolbox.dll in the Problem Reports for the error) for some folks when importing CDs with the AAC encoding, adding/converting files to AAC, and in some cases syncing devices (when the convert to 128 kbps AAC option is enabled).
Short of rolling back your iTunes to 10.0.1.22 and your Apple Application Support to 1.3.2 (CoreAudioToolbox.dll is kept in the Apple Application Support program files), there's a few possible workarounds.
(1) Change your importing prefs to use a different encoding (won't help with the device syncing variation though), and/or disable the convert to 128 kbps AAC when syncing option.
(2) Replace your CoreAudioToolbox.dll version 7.9.4.0 with a 7.9.3.0 as per:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12576816#12576816
(3) Or, replace your CoreAudioToolbox.dll version 7.9.4.0 with a shadow copy of a 7.9.3.0 as per:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12583499&#12583499
(4) Or, if no known-good copy of 7.9.3.0 is available and your PC doesn't have a shadow copy of the 7.9.3.0, you can replace your CoreAudioToolbox.dll version 7.9.4.0 with a 7.9.3.0 by performing some installation gymnastics with the current (11 am 18 Nov NZ time) version of the Safari 5.0.2 installer, as per:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12598386&#12598386
NB with (4) if you have a 64-bit version of Vista or 7 ... the Apple Application Support program files are instead located at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\
(2, 3 and 4 do help with the device-syncing variation.)

"Itune has stopped working" error message HELP!

I tried to open up the itune program, double clicks, no response and an error message pops up saying "Itunes stopped working" and then it sends an error report to Microsoft. What do i do? I tried re-installing. SafeMode start. deleted files that were maybe corrupted, as stated in Apple support forums.

Try working through TS1717: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues to start with.
Otherwise, 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 page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Every time that I attempt to open the store in my iTunes program, I receive and error message and it states ITunes has stopped working and needs to close the program. How do I fix this?

Restart your computer then try iTunes.

Itunes 11.1 has stopped working error message

I have uninstalled; reinstalled; set computer to an earlier version; copied all .dll files to itunes folder and nothing helps. I have contacted apple, but have not gotten a solution that resolves the issue. Any other suggestions out there?

I noticed that when I opened itunes, it begins gathering information about my library and sends information to itunes match, but when I stopped that processed (pressing the small "x"), it does not stop working or freeze. I don't know why, but it has worked for me.
