Click on a movie to play, shuts down iTunes--HELP!!!
Okay, long lengthy road to this point, but I can give you the basics here:
--purchased and downloaded videos
--backed my library up with videos
--windows xp's years of patches started giving me crap
--upgraded to windows 7
--reinstalled itunes
--used backup discs to bring back my videos to use
--music and newly downloaded video podcasts work fine
--clicked on a video to play and it asked me to authorize it (what the ****?) on this computer (its the same computer, different OS, but i authorized it)
--clicked on the video again to play, shut down itunes. clicked on other videos, the same result.
I'm really wondering what happened, because it never did that to me before. I mean, i even system restored it to the very day i installed it just in case i made some little missteps in the process, but the same thing happened. Every time i click on a itunes movie, it shuts it down. I wonder if something went weird in the backup or if there's something else that needs to be done, but this is just ridiculous.
okay, i opened it up and apparently it works okay now
but if it has PMS again, i'll let you guys know. weird.

Updating podcasts shuts down itunes - HELP!
For the past two days I've tried to open itunes to listen to my podcasts. It will stay open until it reaches a certain point in the updating of my podcasts and then shuts down. The software is updated and I've tried restarting a few times...any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Safari: When i click the MINIMIZE button, the browser shuts down! Help??
I just downloaded Safari for the first time (coz I'm jealous I don't have a Mac!). Whenever I click the minimize button up the top right-hand corner, the web browser closes completely instead of just minimizing.... Anyone got any idea why this might be happening??
I'm running Windows Vista btw....
Thanks!Cheers J-G
I actually figured it out. I had just downloaded another program for Mac-wannabes who are stuck with Windows called Rocketdock, which provides you with the Mac version of the windows task bar for your desktop. In my Rocketdock options, there is an option that says "Minimize windows to Rocketdock" and I had this option selected. I have now de-selected it and everything is back to normal -
Why does starting and shutting down iTunes on my Mac stop movie from playing?
Every time I start or shut down iTunes on my Mac, the movie I'm watching on my Apple TV stops playing and goes back to the menu. It also loses the spot in the movie, so I have to fast forward to my spot. Extremely annoying. EVERY TIME.
Unless it is actually associated with something not working, it isn't a problem. I've always seen it on my machine, which works perfectly and has done so for 2.5 years now.

Why is it that my iMovie app keeps shutting off randomly! I'm trying to export my movie and it shuts down each time it's a 1/4 of the way through downloading! Ah! Please help.
I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?
I am running Yosemitie on a iMac.

When synchronizing my iphone4 on the computer it errors out when optimizing the photos and shuts down iTunes. Any idea what to do to get the synch working?
OKay, here is the deal. You cannot change the location of encrypted files nor can you share them with other machines. There is no file server for iTunes so even if you export the movie index from iTunes to an external volume, each time you reboot your computer itunes has to reindex the external drive every time you want to access the files. The second you run your mobile computer without the external drive or try to access the HD movies from another device or another user on the same network, the indexing gets out of synch. The entire process is self defeating regardless. The HD movies are encapsulized by apple to stream to your devices via iCloud and NOT via Cloud. Only your TV can play 1080p. That single file you download from iTunes has mutiple versions of the same video in the capsul, one version for each type of apple device. There are no 1080p apple devices except for the Apple TV. When you buy a movie you are buying a license and not the movie. It's going to get worse with all the new copywrite laws. Already you cant share any apple devices with other itunes accounts. Your airport express just stopped streaming music to all users on the local home sharing Cloud. Only the one user for each device and soon only airplay speakers connected directly to the device. No more passthru via your TV and no more file sharing with other accounts on the same wi-fi. All the ISPs are doing the same thing. And soon everybody will be buying their phones and TV's and iPads from the cabble guy.
Apple has done a poor job of educating the consumer as to the difference between the Cloud and iCloud. They are not the same at all.

My iMatch is crashing every time is reaches the end of step #2 - checking all the songs in my iTunes library. There are 4,389 songs to match, and when it reaches 4,388 songs checked and matched, it crashes and shuts downs iTunes altogether.
hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

Previous version had save all tabs before shutting down,which helped a lot if u open same windows always,but this is not there in the latest version I have upgraded recently.Request you to guide me if this can be accommodated in the new version.
Firefox now always stores the old session which you can access by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session".
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" -
Why is my Library deleted in Version 10.3 everytime I shut down Itunes
Ever since I upgraded to the latest version of I-tunes Version 10.3.1.56 I lose my library files when I shut down Itunes. I can rebuild them by scanning my music but I have to rebuild the playlists and I lose all history of what has been played. I do not lose any music just the library files. Then when I sync I'm told the Itouch is synced to another library so it reloads the whole thing again which takes over an hour. I'm running on Vista. Can I go back a version or is there a way to fix this issue in V10.3.1.56?
I think you are on to something Polydorus. I'm testing now. I have an HP Simplesave device that I unplugged on startup of my PC and Itunes is keeping the library after several startups and shutdowns. I then plugged in the device to provide continuous backup and the library went away. I just updated the Simplesave software to the latest release, rebuilt my library and so far the library is staying. More testing to be done but THANKS for the tip.

I was trying to shut down my mac but an advertisement appears saying that I have to quit the application mail, But then I went to mail and clicked " quit " and then try to shut down aging but it didn't work. What can I do ?
Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, select that application, and press the Force Quit button. If that doesn't work, save and close everything you can and use the Activity Monitor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to force quit the loginwindow process.

I have iTunes version 11.3.1.2 and a Windows 7 Professional aith Service Pack 1. When I try to print a CD cover from a disc I burned, I get an error message that stops the printing task and shuts down iTunes and tells me once the problem is found they will notify me. When this happened before I got sent a message from Apple that I needed to install a new verion of iTunes. I believe I now have the latest iTunes version. So why can't I print?
Is this the problem below? Does the graphics driver cause the problem?
