I tunes has stopped working

Having purchased an I pod almost a year ago I have had a problem free time with both my i pod and i tunes. However, a couple of wheels ago i tunes stopped working. This may have been because I purchased the Sony Ericsson w800i mobile phone and installed the accompanying software onto my computer. Since then an error message appears whenever I try to open i tunes.
"Quick time failed to initialize. Error#-2093"
When trying to open quick time the error message appears
"Quick time failed to initialize. Error#63443"
Obviously I have uninstalled the phone software, and tryed to reinstall i tunes from the website. However niether has solved the problem. In fact I even called up the helpline, and was sent a bunch of outdated problem solving instructions via e mail.
I am truly at a loss as to know how to fix the problem, and so was wondering if anyone had the time and expertise to help me?
Thanks
Charlie

That is the error; "iTunes has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem." Then, the message changes to:
"A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
The dialog then closes and the Problem Reports and Solutions dialog appears and says:
"The problem was caused by iTunes.
A newer version of iTunes is available for download that will address this problem. Apple Inc. recommends updating to the latest version of iTunes to take advantage of security and stability improvements.
Go to the Apple Inc. website and install the latest version of iTunes:
Apple Inc."
I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes, uninstalled the old version, installed new, and the same exact problem just repeats itself.

  • I tunes trys to sync and comes up with error message I tunes has stopped working, I tunes trys to sync and comes up with error message I tunes has stopped working

    Hi guys, Please help
    Just upgraded computer to Windows 7.  Installed latest version of ITunes. It installed and uploaded all my items in my library.
    Connected IPad2 and updated latest version.  However whenever it trys to sync my contents either to my IPad, my wifes IPad or my new Iphone4S, it simply comes up with error message.  I TUNES has stopped working.  Windows is checking for a solution to the problem... Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is found.  Urggh,  can anyone help

    This is similar to my dilemma I just posted:
    itunes has stopped working error msg after software updates?                                                                                        50 minutes ago                       
    I have removed Bonjour as well.
    I've had this happen other times when I've updated iTunes software on other systems too, to the extent that now I'm reluctant to ever Accept when it suggests I do so.  But I went ahead this time and sure enough I think I'll have to do a total reinstall.
    LOL, I don't think Windows has EVER found a solution to ANY system problem I've had which makes it mildly amusing when it acts like it's helping!

  • When i load i tunes, it comes up with error message stating "i tunes has stopped working.A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will clode the program and notify you if a solution is available". I have no idea to fix

    Hey there Rodney274,
    It sounds like you are getting an error from iTunes when you launch it. I would try the troubleshooting in this article named:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Start with troubleshooting for 3rd party plug ins section, then the rest of the article if needed:
    Start iTunes in Safe Mode
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    Click Continue.
    See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Hi, I have purchased I-Tunes match which gets to stage 3 but then I get a message pop up advising me that I-Tunes has stopped working and then I-Tunes just closes down! Has anyone else experience this or know a solution?

    Hi, I have purchased I-Tunes match but since doing so, I get to stage three of the transfer of library to I-Cloud which is downloading artwork, extra information etc and as soon as stage 1 and 2 turn into green ticks, a message pops up to advise that I-Tunes has stopped working and closes I-Tunes down! I have managed to get the bulk of my library across to I-Cloud so I can listen to music through my apple TV - However now every time I bring up I-Tunes, the I-Tunes Match recognises that there is still some artwork/songs that need to be transferred and again once gets to this same stage of the transfer process, I-Tunes closes down. Has anyone else experienced this or have any advice on as solution? I have a Sony  NS-Series laptop with Windows Vista. Following the closure of I-Tunes, I then get another pop up message advising me that perhaps my current I-Tunes is not the most up to date version and recommends that I download the current version - however my I-Tunes version is currently up to date.

    Frustration understood.  May well be worthwhile simply:
    1.  Sign-out of iTunes Store
    2.  Shutdown computer
    3.  Start computer
    4.  Download and install latest version of iTunes
    5.  Launch iTunes, sign-in to iTunes Store, start iTunes Match & allow process to work to completion
    By switching on iCloud Status, iCloud Download and Kind fields you can watch progress for any issues.

  • HT4759 I am accessing itunes match and it keeps coming up with "I tunes has stopped working

    Itunes has worked on and off giving me the message that "itunes has stopped working" after only a few minutes while it is trying to complete the "Match" in order to have the songs available on my iphone 5. I have been resigning in since yesterday after noon and it is still not complete. Does anyone have a solution to this issue? I purchased the service on the cloud thru itunes yesterday.
    Thank you,
    kopinion

    It shouldn't take that long.  You might want to start over by turning off iTunes Match on your phone, and also by opening iTunes on your computer and going to Store>Turn off iTunes Match.  Then turn it back on in iTunes, wait for your library to be scanned and matched, then turn it back on on your iPhone.
