How to fix itunes 11 from popping up constantly

how do you fix itunes from popping up constantly .

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.

  • I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad.  As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message.  I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

    I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad.  As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync.  I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed.  Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

    Hi Tks777,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you see an "error 4013" when you try to restore your iPhone, try these troubleshooting steps:
    Error 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, and 4016
    After you perform each step, try to restore your device.
    Restart your computer.
    Disconnect all your USB devices from your computer and connect to another USB port.
    Use a different USB cable.
    Uninstall third-party security software.
    Try restoring using an alternate computer.

    Move the iTunes library to a shared area and then into the desired location. If this isn’t the default one, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose that library.

  • Does anyone know how to fix 'itunes could not backup the iphone an error occurred'?

    Tried absolutely everything suggested to remedy this very annoying Iphone 4s backup problem, wish Apple would just get round to fixing the problem that a lot of people seem to have for some time now, 'iTunes could not backup the iPhone because an error occurred' refuse to part with £25.00 to be told they don't know how to fix or they are not aware of the problem being so talked about on their support communities. Please please help, its been 4 months now and I have tried absolutely everything out there.

    You really tried EVERYTHING in that article? I'm impressed, it's a long list.
    The most common cause is a currupt current backup. Deleting the current backup should fix it if that's the problem. You need to delete it in iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. But with Windows unfortunately that isn't always enough. You need to use Windows Explorer to make sure the backup is completely gone, as the system call that deletes a folder sometimes fails to delete it completely. So open Explorer and make sure it's gone, and if it isn't delete it using Windows. The location is:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7/8:  \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.
    There have also been reports that some apps prevent the backup from completing, probably because they create files that the backup program doesn't recognize. The most common offender reported is iZip.

  • How to fix Key Chain pop up

    Every once in awhile I come across going on the internet or doing essentially anything on my Mac. and my key chain keeps popping up, saying it needs a password. I dont know the password, I dont remember ever putting in a password for it when I first got this. I dont know how to have it stop popping up. I have gone through the basic instructions of getting to key note access, but from there, Im lost. Can anyone help me fix the random pop up?

    Miahboobear,
    Does this happen all the time when you do anything or just randomly now and then?

  • How to consolidate iTunes from MAC & PC on to a NAS box?

    === Background ===
    I've got 2 MACs & 2 PCs (WinXP) and I want to get the iTunes data consolidated to the network.
    I've got iTunes data (including purchased songs) on both MACs and 1 PC.
    MACs have iTunes 8.02. PC has iTunes 7.4.3.1 (but I can upgrade if that helps).
    All purchased songs have DRM and were bought using the same Apple ID.
    All the machines are on the same 10/100 network.
    I have a NAS box (BuffaloTech) that can be viewed from each machine.
    === Challenge ===
    I'd like to move all the iTunes content to the NAS box so that:
    - all songs/playlists, etc are in 1 place
    - I can use iTunes on any machine MAC/PC to see/play the same libraries
    - I can use iTunes from any machine to buy/add more songs to the libraries
    === Questions ===
    How hard is all this?
    Does the answer get more complex if some of the MACs have multiple accounts?
    I'd like each account to be able to see all the songs.
    I've read about moving iTunes to an external drive. I figure I can use the same process
    to move iTunes from one machine to the NAS. I wasn't able to see much about merger the other iTunes libraries in with the first. Should I do this through my iPhone/USB rather than through the network 10/100?
    Once I have the iTunes setup/consolidated on the NAS, how to I get the iTunes on each machine
    to use the data on the NAS. Will I run into issues (e.g. file locking) when more than one machine uses the iTunes database at the same time?
    What should I watch out for?
    Any recommendations regarding this sort of configuration?
    Thanks for any advice,
    -Dave

    Hey u2sweetestallie,
    Thanks for the question and detailed information. If your backup drive (in your example, drive A) included the iTunes Library files, you can open the library by following these steps:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589
    If the hard drive did not include the iTunes Library files, but instead just the music, you may wish to re-link or re-import the music:

  • How to remove value from pop list in iProcurement Page

    I need to remove a value from POP list. How can I do this? Can I do this using Perosnalization?
    While creating requisition in the approvers page there are two buttons one is Approvers and another is Add_Attachments.
    When I click Add_Attachments button it will open another page there I need enter description and select category from the pop list and define attachment.
    In the category list I need to remove one value. How do i do this.Personalization links not available in this page.
    Please help guys...
    Thanks Advance
    Kumar

    Kumar,
    First you need to find out the data source for the category pop list. Based on that we can suggest how to achieve that requirement as there are many different ways of specifying the data source for a pop list.

  • How to Play iTunes from a external Hard Drive?

    Is it possible to run iTunes from an external hard drive so that I dont use up the space on my labtop? For example, store all my music files on the External and run it through iTunes.

    Assuming you use the iTunes default settings where iTunes copied added items to your iTunes folder and organizes your library (meaning - everything is all self contained in the iTunes folder), then all you have to do is drag & drop your iTunes folder (not just the iTunes Music folder you find inside the iTunes folder) to the external drive and copy the entire thing.
    If you want to test that it worked or would like to actually start using it from that location instead, use these instructions when you start iTunes to point it to the new location...
    How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304447
    If you are just testing, then close iTunes after you verify it works, and restart iTunes again with the same instructions and point it back to your internal drive (original) location.

    iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
    http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
    If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
    http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • How to prevent itunes from automatically adding tunes to library?  These are tunes I select to play, but itunes inserts them in the library and then I have to go delete them.

    If I select a tune to listen to, it opens in itunes and itunes adds it to the library.  I would like to stop itunes from doing this, but I can't find a control to do this or to let me make quicktime be the default player.  So I am constantly deleting stuff that it adds, PIA!

    Mac OS X: Double-Clicking a File Opens the Wrong Application - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2291
    =Changing the application used to open all files of a certain kind=
    1) In a Finder window highlight a file of the kind you want to change the application to open that kind of file.
    2) While that file is highlighted, select File > Get Info or press command (apple or propeller icon) + i to get a file information window.
    3) In the lower part of the info window there is an "open with" menu with a list of applications.
    4) If your application is already in the box then it is the default application for opening that kind of file and you don't need to do anything more.  Close the get info window.
    5) If the application showing in the menu is not the one with which you wish to open the file then select a new application. If your application does not appear there then select the "other..." and track down the application (usually in the Applications folder at the main level of the computer).
    6) If you wish to change all files of this type to open with this application in future, make sure the "change all" button is selected.
    7) Close the get info window.
    To open a file one time with an application, right click the file and Open With.
