Itunes 10.6 crashes when connecting to Store or loggin in

On a brand-new desktop PC (w/ Windows 7 Prof 64-bit, Intel i7 Ivy Bridge Quad-Core CPU, 16 GB of RAM, SSD...), Itunes (10.6.3.25) keeps crashing (with a "Itunes is not working anymore" pop-up) when connecting to the Itunes Store or logging in with my (or the girlfriend's) Apple ID.
I should add that parts of the user account data of the current user was migrated from another machine (for which Itunes works fine). I should also note that there is no problem when accessing the Itunes Store of logging on from the "guest" user account of the same Windows installation. So the trouble is essentially related to the main user (which also happens to be the admin) of this PC.
I followed the steps advised on the Apple website with no success. I also read tons of threads and tried tons of solutions - nothing helped.
Here is an (incomplete) list of the things I tried in vain:
- repairing the itunes installation from the control panel
- explicitly running Itunes as an Administrator
- starting Itunes in safe mode
- creating a new library
- re-creating the library
- deleting different files or folders in the User's appdata folder as advised by some users on this board
- clearing the Itunes Store cache under Preferences/Advanced
- logging in with the girlfriend's apple id
- deleting itunes completely as advised on Apple's pages and deleting all files and folders with "Itunes" in their name, then reinstalling.
My firewall is Windows Firewall and it allows connections by itunes. My anti-virus is Microsoft Security Essentials.
I'd very much appreciate any sincere efforts to resolve the issue.

10.6 syncs fine with all my Apple TV 1's, it's therefore something specific to your set up and not something you should report via feedback. You might want to try re-pairing the Apple TV with iTunes.
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

ITunes 10.5 crashing when connecting to iTunes Store

I snipped after the crash thread.
My iPod nano is connected at the time -- I'm trying to buy some music and add it to the Pod.
Any suggestions?

I don't know why I didn't reboot it before, but as soon as I did the problem went away.
Next time I'll do that first.

ITunes 9 crashes when connecting to store

iTunes 9 is not functioning at all. The problem seems to be linked to something called webkit.dll?? Safari 4 has the same problem. At this point, iTunes is unusable.

Try what I described here:

ITunes crashing when connecting to the store on Windows 8.1

Hello,
I had iTunes crashing when connecting to the iTunes Store with an Apple ID. I tried unsucessfully all the solutions posted on the many threads of people having the same issue. So I decided to reinstall Windows. A clean Windows 8.1 install from the Microsoft DVD. And guess what, it is still crashing! How can this even be possible?
The problem:
- iTunes crashes when connecting to the store with an Apple ID. It connects, briefly freezes, then crashes.
- I can access the store without an Apple ID without crashes. But it crashes as soon as I connect with an Apple ID.
The system:
- A clean, fully updated, Windows 8.1 Pro w/ WMC install from the Microsoft DVD.
- Applications I installed, along with iTunes: Adobe Reader, Google Chrome, Skype, Office 2013. Nothing else. No crapware. No nothing. These are fairly common applications that shouldn't conflict with iTunes.
- Antivirus is the built-in Windows Defender.
- Firewall is the built-in Windows Firewall.
- Intel HD Graphics 3000 on an Acer V3-571-6486
- I have not moved Apple's folder from Romaing and Local AppData of the old systems... So it's a clean iTunes profile.
- I can sucessfully sign-in to the iTunes Store with this account on another computer
- I have tried with multiple accounts on this computer, all crashing
There are tons of threads about this. I tried all the solutions posted, including:
- Adding "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" to the PATH environment variable
- Copying QTMovieWin.dll from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes"
- Moving QTMovieWin.dll from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes"
- Updating the graphics card to the latest available driver from Intel's website (9.17.10.3517, 2014-10-04)
- Downgrade the graphics driver (9.17.10.3347, 2014-01-29)
- Use the graphic's driver from Acer's website.
- Use Microsoft's Basic VGA Driver
- Disable the Graphic's Adapter entirely
- Have tried to monitor the process with ProcMon, looking for a hint like a missing file or registry entry, but have not found anything helpful.
These solutions seem to have worked for almost everyone, but not me. The crash details in the Windows Application log are useless. Faulty module name is 'unknown'.
I am out of solutions. Is there anything left to do? Can anyone out Apple debug the dump file or something? Is there any way to contact Apple about this issue?
Many thanks.

Hey zoyashahab,
Ok, so it sounds like there are two issues here we want to address, the first being the iTunes Store connection issue and the second being iTunes not recognizing your iOS devices.
First, I'd start with troubleshooting the recognition by following the steps in here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If after getting that running again, you still can't connect to the iTunes Store, then I'd go through the troubleshooting steps in here:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store

Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

ITunes 12 crashes when accessing the store

I installed Yosemite and iTunes 12.0.1. Since then, it crashes when accessing the store (wolor wheel)
I re-installed iTunes. It works with my Library when my iMac is disconnected from the net, but as soon as iTunes tries to access the store and refresh iTunes Match… Bang. It freezes again and I have to re-install it (it freezes again when I restart, even when disconnected).
Ho can I solve this, please ?

I was having the same issue. iTunes Match had little or none to do with it. Basically anything that required logging into the store (I needed to re auth). Frustrating because iTunes now makes you use your apple id for the tiniest little tasks, and worse yet, it shows logged in, but it really isn't. Anytime I tried to authenticate it would time out and then cause iTunes and a library file to not respond, causing me to force quit. I did notice my wireless connection was suffering. I rebooted my router and tried again, voila! connected and authorized! no time outs! iTunes 12.0.1.26 seems to be a little sensitive to weak connections?

ITunes 11.1 Crashes When Accessing iTunes Store

I just upgraded to iOS 7 and iTunes 11 (from iOS 6 and iTunes 10) and iTunes seems to crash whenever I access the iTunes Store: "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
Any suggestions for troubleshooting/fixing?

Some additional diagnostic information (still no solution )
Can connect to the iTunes store successfully when starting Windows in Safe Mode with networking. It seems that there is something running even when all of the startup items and non-Microsoft services listed in msconfig are disabled and whatever that is does not run in Safe Mode. Any thoughts?
It is not eset NOD32. I completely uninstalled this and still had the problem.
I noticed that when starting iTunes, there is a message that it is connecting to the Apple store and then attempts to send Genius information. This phase does not end unless I manually stop it, and in fact there is no network activity (no packets being sent or received). Thinking that this might suggest an issue with Windows Firewall (even though WF isn't supposed to block outgoing traffic) I disabled the firewall ... but iTunes still crashes when accessing the Store.

Itunes crash when browsing Music Store

I wonder if anybody can help me. iTunes tends to crash when I'm browsing the music store. It very happens often. I tried trashing the preferences and doing the disk utility according to the guys from the genius bar, but it still persist. I appreciate any help on this. Thanks.

Me too, but I'm afraid that I don't have anything worthwhile to add to the discussion. It's been going on for months and no one seems to want to acknowledge the problem. iTunes works fine as long as I don't try to send Apple any money, so I guess it's their loss except that it means I have to travel to a physical store to buy CDs on plastic optical media.

Itunes crashes when connecting iphone

Hi all, I have an iPhone 5 running ios 7.0.2 and iTunes lastest version installed on Windows 8. The problem is, every time I try to connect my iPhone to my computer, iTunes crashes.

3rd Gen 32GB iPod Touch Caushes iTunes to crash when connected.

I just bougth a brand new iPod touch 32GB model Number A1318
I connected it to my iMac with OS X 10.6.1 and iTunes 9.0
It detects the new iPod touch and activate it.
But itunes crashes, so I can not sinc with it.
How do I fix this?
I tried reinstalling iTunes and iPod support from the Snow Leopard DVD, with no luck.

Hi,
I just want to get in on this one as well because I have the exact same problem. (ipod touch 3rd gen -recently purchased- itunes 9.01 crashes)
When I go to sync my ipod, iphoto will open by default. I am able to see my ipod in the iphoto device list, but I cannot access it - I can only eject it. What is more, itunes will always crash at the same time. I am unable to reopen it.
The only workaround I have right now is that if I delete all the content/settings on my ipod, I am able to re-sync it with itunes. The next time I want to sync it however, I will have to repeat the reset (not ideal!).
If anyone has any help I would appreciate it.

ITunes freezes and crashes when I sync my iPhone5

Help! iTunes freezes and crashes every time I try to sync my iPhone 5. Sometimes it freezes at the start of the sync. Sometimes it successfully backs up the phone and freezes at a later step.
Also, after I connect the phone but before I click on sync, if I click on the Apps tab in iTunes, the program also freezes and crashes.
The same iTunes program (v.11.3.1) on the same desktop computer works just fine when my wife syncs her iPhone 4.
What can I do about this? I'd really appreciate advice.

Hey user1934,

Is there a way to prevent iTunes from starting up when connecting an iPad to my Macbook?

Is there a way to prevent iTunes from starting up when connecting an iPad to my Macbook? We use Apple Configurator and would love to be able to set up the MacBook to open Apple Configurator when we plug in an iPad.

When you connect the device open iTunes and select it from the sidebar. Click on the Summary tab in the main window. Uncheck the option to automatically connect to iTunes. You will find it in the collection of options near the lower part of the window.
