IPAD sync crashes new Dell Laptop every time sync attempted
I have a new Dell latitude 6410 laptop and when trying to sync IPAD to new computer as soon as sync starts running it crashes my laptop to the fatal blue screen.
How uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes, selected to attempt only small file and app sync and still crashes after a few seconds. Apple blames OS, Dell blames Itune-Ipad. I am stuck in the middle very sad and frustrated.
I would uninstall both iTunes and QuickTime and then reinstall them. But reinstall Quicktime first separate from iTunes and than after Quicktime is installed install iTunes.

I have installed iTunes on my new laptop OS Windows 7. I have two iphones, a 3rd gen nano and an ipod classic.
Since the install yesterday I keep getting an error message which itunes has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a soluion is available.
I have un and re installed and followed a command promt reset.
I still have the problem. Any ideas?Ok. So I created a new account and iTunes did work. I went back into my original account and tried again and just to be more clear, after I open iTunes it asks me to accept or decline the agreement, I do that, then it says "updating library", and then one all the bars are full it closes and says "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close."
okay, let's start working through the user-account-specific causes of this message.
one possibility is damaged itunes preference files in the user account in which you're getting the crash. (there's a different set of those in each different user account, which is how we can get crashes limited to a single user account.)
if that is what is going on, we can often get past this by rebuilding the preference files in the account that is crashing. for the preference files rebuild technique, see my reply to kusma in this post:

IPad 1 crash heady apps/games every time!
I have an iPad 1 64GB 3G, and I'm really frustrated.
The iPad works fine when formatted or when haves just a few applications, but it does not happens when u get too much apps.
I have more than 300 apps here, 6GB free, and lot of games ans apps dust does not work here. Forget about Infinity Blade, it does not run. Daily news apps? Maybe, usually it crashes when u try to open a daily issue.
If I format it, everything works fine again, if I download more than 200 apps back (I already tried downloading 200 different apps), the problem comes back too.
I already tried to reset settings, recover system, redownload apps, close apps in bg, restart device... nothing works.
Why Apple insists to sell devices that stop working in some months? Haves any fix for that?
Thanks.You've probably just got it too clogged. You can investigate how many of those 200 apps are running in the background, using ram and memory. Get too many of those running in the background, eating up tiny bits of ram each, all of a sudden you don't have enough left to get other things done. FOr example if many of them run location services in the background, or are constantly fetching or pushing data from the net.
I would investigate just how many of those apps you really need. Look into any controls and see what they are doing in the background. Crashing is usually caused by conflicts within apps (rare but happens) or just not enough memory.
Perhaps reformat it then put on a few at a time, obviously the ones you really need and use, and see how its peformance goes in incremental bits. -
Firefox won’t initialize: I can open any program on my computer except for Firefox so it isn't that my computer is slow. It doesn't open at all no matter how long I wait. I've left the room and let the computer run before and it still wasn’t running when I came back. After a few clicks it finally it comes up, and I have to wait because I’ve clicked multiple times so of course it's going to open multiple times. When I'm online after successfully closing all but one Firefox window so that I don't crash my poor laptop, every time I attempt to interact with the program via clicking a link, opening a new tab, or typing something into the URL bar, the program freezes and goes into the not responding stage. Rarely, an unresponsive script message will pop up.

Sync ipad2 to a new dell laptop
Issues 1
i purchased a new dell laptop and now my ipad will not give me the ability to sync the only button clickable is revertDid you transfer your purchases to the new iTunes library on your PC? You will also want to backup your iPad.
You need to authorize your computer as well in order to download iTunes content. From the iTunes menu at the top go to Store>Authorize this computer.
Read this and see if it makes sense to you. It is a way to transfer your purchased content to iTunes. The information was copied from this discussion.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2431472
1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources. -
I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one? Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!
You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What is the issue, had this phone over a year??
I had this problem before. I like to disable extra services to speed up my computer and I disabled the Apple Mobile Device service and had to re-enable this.
You can do that by going Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services. Once you have gone to the services window, look for Apple Mobile Device and right-click. Select "Properties". There should be some information about the service as well as the label "Startup Type" with a drop-down menu beside it. If it says "disabled", that is your problem; Change the selection to anything except disabled (Automatic is easier and ensures that you can sync as soon as itunes opens).
If this doesn't work, I would look into your anti-virus' settings. Good Luck! -
i want to copy songs from my old ipad to a new one. laptop used in configuring the old ipad crashed and cant be used again
You may be able to re download iTunes purchases for free directly on the new iPad.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Note: Previously purchased music is only available through iTunes in the Cloud in Australia, Canada, Cypress, France, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Previously purchased TV shows are only available through iTunes in the Cloud in the United States. -
My new iPad keeps forgetting my Internet password every time it is switched off or goes on flight mode. Have tried resetting the network setting as it suggest on the support page. The Internet works fine with my windows PC and my son's iPad 2. Any advice?
Have you tried powering off and then back on your router?
Does it only happen with your router? If so that would tend to indicate a router problem. -
I'm having problems with iPhoto and the facebook set-up. Every time I attempt to do so it says an error has occured and try again later. I have not seen a solution posted. Therefore, how does one contact Apple to solve the problem? I'm new to the world of iMac but I find it a bit frustrating trying to solve basic issues/problems:(
For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,

Trying to burn a playlist in itunes and i get this message at the end 'The attempt to burn a disc failed. An nknown error occurred (4450)'. This is with a new Dell laptop running windows 8. The playlist was 17 songs from cd's and itunes. Any ideas?
try this...
This is how I managed to fix the problem...and I hope this helps others in the similar situation.
I tried with another program..latest version of Nero, and this was also stopping at the 'initialising' stage. I was now lost! I thought the last resort is to give Evesham (My PC manufacturer) a buzz. They were very helpfull. Basically go into 'Control Panel', 'System', and click on the Hardware tab, then 'Device Manager'. Uninstall everything in the DVD/CDRom Drives. Then uninstall everything under the catagory IDE ATA/Atapi disk controllers. This is where my problem was, as I only had one IDE channel here. You should have 4 or 5! Reboot your machine, and everything will automatically re-load. I tried burning using Nero and it worked. Then the big test was iTunes. It worked 1st time!
I asked why the IDE channels have dissappearred, and he said sometimes uninstalling Programmes occasionally removes them.
I hope this will help others who are having problems to burn stuff on iTunes. -
Uprgraded to yosemite all good but iphoto crashes every time I attempt to upgrade the photo library
Hi all,
This is driving me insane.
I have uprgraded to yosemite all good but iphoto crashes every time I attempt to upgrade the photo library:-
I have upgraded to yosemite 3 times in case thats where there problem was - no.
I removed and reinstalled the new iphoto program about 5 times - no avail.
I have installed iphoto library upgrader but it says that my library does not need it.
I have installed iphoto9.1 update but it states that it cannot be installed on the disc as iphoto 9.0 or later must be installed but i have installed the latest version?
I have even upgraded the server and i paid for this.
When i open iphoto in applications it will open then state that i need to upgrade the library - i am happy to do this.
I agree to this then iphoto crashes and closes before doing anything else.
I have also tried holding the option button and opening iphoto but it crashes all the same.
I am at a loss what to do. I could not access my library at all but i managed to find all my pics in finder so i have backed everything up and deleted all the files in the hope this would fix it - nope. Still the same.
Does anyone have any suggestions?? Please oh please, this has taken days and countless wifi hours...
TIA...Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. -
Safari crashes and shuts down every time I visit Grays Online. Anyone else with this problem?
Safari crashes and shuts down every time I visit Grays Online. Site usually flicks off in under a minute. Anyone else with this problem?
The website may need more memory than you have available if you are running iOS 5.1.1 on the original iPad. Try some basic troubleshooting steps. Maybe quitting all apps might be the best thing to try.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit ALL apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -
my windows(8.1 64bit) partition is read only from the mac(yosemite) side of things. Anybody have a clue on how to fix this? Also, slightly frustrating as well, windows crashes every time I attempt to open a file from the mac partition.
All Office applications will also try to open a temporary work file in the same location as the source file. This implies the source file directory also needs to be writable for this temporary file. Since the default HFS+ driver provides only read-only access, such temporary files will fail to open, and will cause the application to fail.
As a test copy the file you want to edit, say an Excel spreadsheet from the OSX file system to the C: drive on the Windows side and try to open it. If you look in this directory, you should see two files, the source and a temporary file. You may have to force the temporary file to be opened on a read-write file system, by manipulating the folder for temporary files. -
Crashes every time I attempt to open a software instrument GUI
I'm encountering a serious problem of crashing every time I attempt to open a software instrument GUI.
I'm working on a song with many software instruments (Ivoy, Stylus, Kontakt2, Kontakt 3, Toontrack Superior Drum 2.0, Trilogy, ecc.) and I can see on Activity Monitor that I am at the limit of Logic RAM addressing (Logic is at 2.57 GB and VM is at 3.90: I have 10 GB DIMMs).
Is perhaps my problem due to this RAM limit?
Note that the song flows smoothly if I play it and all is fine. But I can't open a soft Instr. GUI because Logic crashes.
If it so, I wonder why Logic has this RAM addressing limit. Is it due to the System architecture? Could it be surpassed in the future?Yes Logic have a limitation on Ram and Virual Memory. I really hope an update could be done about that, cause without this i could too do a complete mix without doing bouncing or exporting the soft instrument as a audio track to regain some DSP. To Avoid this kind of situation is to twaek your virtual instrument (ex. Superior 2.0 load jus by defaut 982 Mb in the ram and virtual memory addressing to Logic, you can lower that by removing samples of drum you don't use - i use superior 2.0 with 2 setup one drum set load at 360 Mb and another one at 580 Mb at 24bit - you can also reduce the bit rate)... But i agree totally with you this limitation is ridiculous now our days we have powerfull machines and plugin and software that require more RAM. Architecture that was develop at the time of the first Logic.
