HT201413 Why does Data Execution Protection or lack thereof keep shutting down iTunes

Why does Data Execution Protection or lack thereof keep shutting down iTunes?

Sounds like you have a battry issue but don't want to believe it.
If a car was running fine on one tank of gas, then you filled it up with another tank of gas and it began to run funny, one might suspect that tank of gas. But let's just say coincidence blew a valve-- would you think the new tank of gas was the culprit?
BUT WAIT!! It just might have been! The gas could have been of higher octane and put more more strain on the valves; you know, like going from 87 octane (OS6) to 93 octane (OS7) and showing you the engine was on the edge of compromise.
Sometimes you have to go with common sense. If everything else is ruled out, it must be the battery. And if it runs fine one moment in OS6 but immediately ***** in OS7, I'd believe my battery was suspect-- though comfy-- in OS6 but the OS7 showed its true power.
Moreover, if you had the answer-- or didn't want to believe someone's more competent advice-- why did you even call?  You've already shown that you don't know much when you asked if you could go backwards after setting up the new OS as a new phone.
Additonally, if you're such the know-it-all, but yourself the $29 battery and put it in yourself. It's a piece of cake.

  • Why does SL automattically turn back on when I shut down?

    Why does my mac mini automatically restart when I shut down? I shut down via the normal methods (apple menu, Shut down...) and as the shut down process finishes the computer automatically restarts and goes to the log in screen, If I shut down via the log in screen it turn's off. What gives?
    Shouldn't it just shut down when I ask it to and not return me to the log in interface ?
    Help please.Thanks all.

    Seems that some process is calling it back.

    Probably a process in your account and not systemwide.
    Go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. BShutdown and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Test.
    EDIT: Also, unmount & disconnect all peripherals except Apple keyboard & mouse.

  • Windows keeps shutting down iTunes because of Data Execution Prevention. is there a DEP version of iTunes?

    My iTunes program keeps shutting down shortly after loading.  I get an error from Windows stating that a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Then I get a message that states iTunes was closed because of Data Execution Prevention.  It states to find a version that allows DEP or change your DEP settings.  I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but still have an issue.  Does anyone know how to fix this so that I can use iTunes?

  • Why does my i-pad 2 take ages to shut down

    why does my i-pad 2 take ages to shut down

    Could you be more specific on what you mean by "ages"? It should be a matter of seconds... but for that matter, the iPad rarely needs to be shut down. Personally, I only do it when about to board an airplane.

  • Why does my mid 2012 MacBook Pro Retina latptop shut down during software installation/updates?

    Whenever I attempt to update preexisting software apps or install new ones, my mid 2012 MacBook Pro w/ Retina display will shut down and reboot itself. Obviously this has gotten frustrating as several of my existing apps are woefully out of date.
    Any suggestions would be most helpful.

    Thanks for the assistance and sorry for the late reply, I'm overseas doing HA work and don't always have internet access.
    I tried utilizing the methods you mentioned and upon doing so I received the following message:
    So I followed this set of instructions and when verifying and repairing disk permissions the window stated that the partition was okay.
    After logging back in, I attempted to download a software update, sadly the system shut itself down and rebooted and I am still unable to install any updates for my out of date apps. I won't return to the States until June, I may have to wait until then to resolve this issue.
    Thank you again for your assistance.

  • Why does my Macbook Core 2 Duo 13" keep shutting itself off and/or repetively rebooting on its own?

    My Macbook Core 2 Duo 13" won't stay on for any significant time anymore. When it does, it seems that the slightest movement, or pressing a key will shut it down or it just shuts down on its own. Or it reboots repetitively after chiming. Or it remains on as it is doing now for the last 30 minutes, long enough to see if it needed a firmware update. It's never on long enough to really use it anymore.
    When there is no image on the screen, I often can hear the fan or drive running quietly in the background. I can turn it off by powering down with the button. Without the power cord, it will eventually drain the battery if I don't force shut it down.
    I have verified that the hard drive is OK by removing it and mounting it externally.
    I have been unable to do a hard system reboot (hold down powerbutton until system starts and continue to hold until tone) - no tone, just keeps rebooting.
    When it stayed on long enough, I tried to install the firmware 1.1 update. Message was that it didn't need it.
    I have tried removing one RAM card at a time ( it has 1GB + 512Mb). Haven't really noticed any change. "POST" message is OK when it starts
    Any ideas? I've looked at all the "usual suspects".  Thanks!

  • Why does clicking on "Preferences" (to change home page) shut down Safari?

    What can I do to prevent Safari from immediately shutting down when I click on "Preferences" in an attempt to change my home page? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Mark
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Sounds like the Preference file is corrupt.
    In the Finder, drag to the desktop the com.apple.safari.plist folder found in your User Account>Library>Preferences folder.
    Restart Safari. Open the preference file. If no crash you'll need to reset your Safari preferences to your liking, plus any custom settings found in the Edit Menu (spelling) or View Menu (status bar, bookmarks bar, custom icons in the "Customize Address Bar" ).

  • Why does my MacBook turn itself on after being shut-down completely?

    I've noticed recently that when I get up in the morning my computer is on after I completely shut it down in the evening.  Has someone hacked into my computer?  If so how do I check to find out?

    Welcome back to Apple Support Communities.
    Check System Preferences, Hardware, Energy Saver, Power Adapter to see if 'Wake for Ethernet network access' is checked.  (MacBook 2,1 with OS X 10.6.7 illustrated below).
    If you leave your computer plugged in to Ethernet, and/or AirPort wireless turned on when you shut down, the computer will wake when it receives an incoming Ethernet network signal. Your router or WiFi router sends signals fairly frequently to see if your computer still attached.

  • HT5361 Why does my mail stop me from restarting or shutting down my computer?

    I use monroefarquhar@**** for all my mail. Learning to use Mac i have made some type error with my mailboxes. Should i delete all mail? The problem is keeping me from turning off or restarting my computer.
    <Email Edited By Host>

    Can you quit Mail normally or do you have to force quit it? If you don't want to lose your e-mails, go to Mail/Mailboxes/Export Mailbox. You can put them on your desktop for now. I would then try deleting your account and then setting it up again.
    Who is your e-mail provider and are you using IMAP or POP?

  • Data Execution Prevention shutting down iTunes even with exception added

    Well, was having this problem, it miraculously fixed itself for like a day but now it is happening again. Data Exectuion Prevention for Windows keeps shutting down iTunes. I have gone into the DEP settings and added an exception for it to not apply to iTunes but it is still happening every time I open iTunes. Today I downloaded and installed the new version of iTunes, hoping that would make a difference, but it is still happening. Also, since I installed that version about an hour ago, iTunes keeps opening itself without me telling it to--every five minutes I see it opening without me doing anything and then immediately being closed by DEP. I am getting very frustrated. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I had the same issue after my recent update of iTunes.  I didn't update Quicktime 'cuz I don't use it much (or at all).  On another thread discussing the same issue, I saw that the Quicktime installation can affect iTunes.  So I downloaded the latest Quicktime, installed, redooted - issue fixed (for now). 

  • Audition and Vista-Data Execution Protection

    My old system gave up recent. I bought a new 64bit system with Windows Vista Ultimate. I reinstalled Audition and could not get it to run.
    I kept getting and error message - "To help protect your computer, Data Execution Protection has closed Audition." I followed to instruction from vista to silve the problem, but to no available. I need help. I have too many projects lined up. Thanks

    As no-one else has answered, I'll say what I remember.
    I believe that the problem was with Vista64 sp1 and Audition 3.0 before the 3.01 patch, and there were 2 workarounds. The first was to install the original Vista64 , then AA 3, then install Vista sp1, the second was some convoluted process involving putting the PC's date forward, installing, then putting the date back. I thought a patch was issued by Adobe to sort all this out, but it doesn't seem to be on their downloadable updates any more.
    This may all be complete rubbish, because here, by luck or good judgement, the installation of AA3 on Vista64 Ultimate went fine. My Vista DVD is non-sp1, so that may be why.
    It would be nice to have a clarification from Adobe about what the actual situation is now.
    PS A patch was indeed issued. I have it here. If it's still on the Adobe site it is quite well hidden! It's a tiny zip file.

  • Data Execution Protection option in Windows 2003

    Does anyone know if enabling the Data Execution Protection option in Windows 2003 will have any negative effect on a SAP system?

    well it is as Eric already mentioned:
    1st recommendation: Go for 64 Bit!
    2nd recommendation:
    decrease the user address space carefully if you have to.
    start with /userva=2900, if the problem still happens change /userva step by step to lower values each time evaluating wether the new value has fixed the situation.
    the problem with /userva is, that it shortens the virtual address space (addressable memory for normal applications). with /userva=2700 your application is able to address 2.7 GB of virtual memory, the remaining 1.3 GB can only be used in kernel mode (operating system, drivers etc). In this case (/userva=2700) your application (ABAP Report, other memory consuming programs) can only utilize 300 MB less memory compared to /userva not set.
    Those ABAP reports currently utilizing 95 percent of the available address space will no longer run when /userva is set to 2700.
    It is much less pain to run on 64 Bit OS - you don't have to play around with all these funny parameters.

  • After itunes is closed i get warning saying data execution protection closed itunes

    after I exit itunes I get a warning saying data execution protection cloesed itunes, this is after it has already shut down. I tried to exclude itunes from DEP but did not work. Thanks

    I don't have a solution for you, but it seems that if you visit the iTunes Store at some point while iTunes is open then you don't get that error when it closes.

  • Latest Security Updates cause Data Execution Protection errors

    Since the latest Windows updates I have been inundated with Data Execution Protection errors in IE 11. I have tired the troubleshoot of tuning off add-ons but the error continues. I only have Norton 360 toolbar as an add on anyway.
    I can't isolate the problem - any suggestions?
    As a side issue I also can't launch Google Chrome - it crashes on launch from a new installation.
    I am running Windows 8.1 on a Lenovo X1 carbon laptop.

    Hello Adrian0511,
    Which update do you mean?
    Have you tried to reset Internet Explorer as MVP Rob mentioned?
    We could go to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features click View Installed Updates and then uninstall the update and check if the issue stseill exists.
    For more information about troubleshoot problems with removing updates, please take a look at the following article.

    About the Chrome issue, it is recommended to ask in the related Chrome forum.
