I constatnly have to restart my computer to get my iTunes to open. I have updated to the latest version and still have same problem. What is causing this and how do I fix it?

I constantly have to restart my computer to get my iTunes to open. Does anyone know of a solution?

Here are the two ways that I run apps as admin in Win 7. Would recommend trying the first method to see if it works before you use the second method.
First: I use this one if I only need to do it occasionally (you may find this way tedious after a few days). Right click on iTunes and the context menu will pop up. Click on "Run as administrator" then another popup will open asking you to confirm if you want to allow iTunes to have admin privilleges (this happens every time any app requests higher privelliges), choose yes and if our issues are the same iTunes should load.
Second: The semi-permenant method, again I'd say try the other method first to see if this will work for you. Right click on iTunes like before but choose Properites, then go to the Compatibility tab. At the bottom you have the ability to give iTunes admin privilleges every time it loads. Check that box, then click apply then OK. You will still see the box I mentioned earlier (I can't get a screen shot of it) asking if its ok to run with higher rights, but this way is a couple of clicks less.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

  • Firefox constantly freezes on my Mac, although I've installed the latest version and tried all suggested fixes - without success.

    I used Firefox up to version 3.5 and it worked well. But ever since, FF has frozen as soon as I've opened a webpage other than Google. FF even freezes when I'm in Mozilla's help pages !
    I have trashed and reinstalled several times, updated constantly as suggested. I'm now using (or trying to use) version 25. No success.
    I have done everything that was suggested :
    - trashed and reinstalled ( several times over the years, to see if new versions of FF would work)
    - restarted FF in safe mode
    - tweaked the profile as recommended
    - I've painstakingly checked that all my plug-ins etc were up to date. They are.
    None of these solutions have worked. As I have written more than once, none of them should be necessary : Firefox should "just work". After all, other browsers do - I use Safari and Chrome, for instance, as well as SeaMonkey. Does any
    one know what's happening ?
    I'm now running Mac OS 10.9.

    A moderator (AliceWyman, whom I thank for her post) suggests I reset Firefox. I've done that, more than once.
    The problem remains. And so does my question : why does Firefox keep on hanging/freezing ?
    Why should fixes be necessary? Mozilla, in its Firefox page, generously offers the browser free, and users assume that it will, simply, work. In my case, it doesn't.
    And as I've said: I've tried a whole range of fixes and workarounds (that aren't necessary with other browsers) and they haven't worked. If my iMac can handle all the other browsers with no problem, this indicates that the computer works, and that the other browsers do too. So this problem seems to be a specific Firefox one.
    As I've already said, I could just give up and use Safari, Chrome, Chromium, SeaMonkey, Maxthon, or Slimboat, for instance.
    But it irks me that FF, with such a good reputation (it's the third most widely used browser), should behave in this way.
    "Different by design", says its webpage. Well, it's certainly different. Can anyone help? I've been asking these questions, trying "fixes", trashing and clean-reinstalling for about a week now.

  • I have firefox 10.0.2 installed but everytime I open up firefox I get a message that says I am not currently using this version and I need to update to the latest version and why won't firefox support printing mac coupons

    my firefox info shows that I am using 10.0.2 but I keep getting a repeated message when I open it saying I'm not using the most recent version.
    Even tho the mac coupon printer says firefox supports this install it doesn't allow me to print it.

    Hi cleopt,
    You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
    You should try changing your home page to:
    about:home
    If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
    Hopefully this helps

  • I updated to the latest version and now I do not have the page controls at the right hand side and bottom and can only move the page up and down using the mouse scroll wheel. I also cannot see the whole page I am trying to view.

    When I open the web browser I cannot see the whole page and I cannot move the image sideways and must use the mouse scroll to move up and down.

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • I have updated to the latest version however I am still experiening blackouts on all or portions of pages. Scrolling makes the problem worse.

    I am experiencing blackouts on all pages. It can occur in blocks or be the whole page. It appears when running my cursor over the page or when scrolling. Scrolling again or leaving and then returning to the page sometimes helps. I have updated to the latest version and I have unchecked the hardware acceleration feature, however the problem remains.

    Hello,
    The latest version is 33.1 - since user agents will only show 33.0 for us, can you confirm that you have 33.1 for me by going to:
    * Help (or [[Image: New Fx Menu]] > [[Image: Help-29]]) > About Firefox
    Thanks!
    Have you also tried Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

    Check this thread out -> iTunes 10.4 & Multimedia Keyboard
    It doesn't look like there is a fix yet, but some people in the thread are pointing to this workaround:

    - You need to open a text editor (like notepad) as an administrator.
    - Open the SetPoint players.ini file (C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPointP\players.ini)
    - Edit the line under the [Players] section to match the line bellow (bold is the wndClass which is to be changed)
    iTunes=wac,iTunes.exe,ITWindow,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,0,1,iTunes
    - Save the file
    - Restart the SetPoint and hopefully play/pause, next and previous buttons should work (at least they work for me)

  • When I went to update my iPod touch on iTunes, it said unable to update then the iPod shutdown and no longer showed connected in iTunes.  I have tried holding down both buttons for up to 3 mins with no luck turning it on, even after a full charge.  Help?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I recently updated to the latest version of iTunes.  Since updating, iTunes does not recognize any of my devices (iPod or iPhone). 
    When I plug in my iPhone it doesn't even recognize that it is plugged into the computer (although the cord works and the USB port is good).
    When I plug in my iPod (on the same cord) an error message pops up in iTunes and immediately kicks/ejects. "An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly..."

    i have an iphone 4 with 4.3.2 version, want to upgrade but my phone is not getting detected on my comp  on itunes. i want to upgrade it to the latest version of the software, please help

    If your phone isn't being recognized by your computer, you need to follow the steps in this article to resolve that
    Also, some basic isolation needs to be done. Does it show up in itunes on any other computers? do you have other cords you can test with to see if it might be the cord? if the phone doesn't show up on any computers, it's likely your phone has a hardware issue
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US is the article to use if you want to concentrate on trying to get a particular computer to recognize your phone
