ITunes 11 stutter on windows 7

iTunes 11 playback stutter on windows 7.
Can someone please help. Ever since upgrading to iTunes 12 I can no longer playback any of my music without this horrendous stutter. It only happens in iTunes. I've tried varying different fixed and nothing works.
What I find most peculiar is the absolute deafening silence from Apple themselves on this issue! Particularly when you consider just how many others are experiencing the same thing.
Any help would be much appreciated. Since purchasing a iPhone, all my music us now contained in my iTunes.
Thanks !

So here is the weird thing. I got this error as soon as I attempted to access the iTunes store -- then again as soon as I restarted iTunes.
Both times it errored out with the above event viewer error which was of no help:
Faulting application name: iTunes.exe, version: 11.0.0.163, time stamp: 0x50b71fed
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00000000
Faulting process id: 0x1674
Faulting application start time: 0x01cdd96bd3867602
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe
Faulting module path: unknown
Report Id: 178b184d-455f-11e2-a2e9-0026b97a674b
However -- on my third attempt -- it loaded up just fine and has not crashed. I was able to access the iTunes store and my library but have not actually played any files yet.
And my setup is 64bit Windows 7.
If it happens again i'll repost any extra findings but I guess I was lucky enough that the problem went away and somehow corrected itself? Very strange.

ITunes 8 STUTTER (in Windows) conquered for once and all (at least for ME)

Like you, I have read, tried and failed to resolve using the many suggested fixes such as disabling air Tunes, reducing audio card sampling rate, changing the audio output settings in Quick Time... literally tore my hair out, went so far as uninstall/reinstall iTunes 8 several times, even bought a couple of different new sound cards (one USB and one PCI) and STILL the stutter persisted. I have over 20 years experience. I got onto the trail when I used MSCONFIG to disable all non-Microsoft services and start up items and rebooted. Played iTunes... NO STUTTER. So then it was which program(s) and or services were at fault? I uninstalled literally almost EVERY optional program on my PC including Adobe stuff, Java stuff and more, NO JOY. Finally, I stumbled across a post on the web where a guy said he DISABLED HIS FIREWALL and I tried it... INSTANT JOY!!!!!
We were running TrendMicro Office Scan firewall. Turning it off solved this stutter issue for ME, it might or might not work for YOU. If all other suggestions have failed, Give it a go. Note: Some corporate users may have to involve their IT people and may or may not be granted the permission to 'try' this...
It worked for me and that's all I'm saying. Hope it helps even just one other soul who has lost patience with what seemed an insurmountably frustrating problem with iTunes 8 stuttering.

Cheers.

Disable your flavor of Windows Firewall and see if this clears up the Stutter. It worked for me on Windows XP Pro Service Pack 3 machine with all latest Microsoft patches by disabling Trend Micro Software-based Firewall completely.
NOTE: Disabling your firewall may put you at risk from Internet attack. Consult your IT security adviser for recommendations and best practices specific to your own unique computing situation. In our case we have a HARDWARE FIREWALL (which is STILL ON) that was NOT causing the stutter in iTunes. It appears from trial-and-error empirical testing here that the Trend Micro Office Scan Software firewall was the culprit. Again, this is non-scientific empirical data and given without warranty or guarantee of any kind. You assume all risks of use if you elect to try this fix.

Hello, Pete.
Here is an article I would recommend going through when an iPod is not recognized by iTunes or the computer.
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369
Usually the resolution is updating the Apple Mobile Device Driver. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

How can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

how can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

If you don't have iTunes installed on your laptop then you can download and install it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
You can then log into your account on it via the Store > Sign In menu option (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can get the menus to show via control-B) :
And you can then select the Store on the left-hand sidebar (you can enable the sidebar via control-S), and then browse items in the store and buy them by clickin on their price.

Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. and 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)

Hi!
So i think i closed the wrong service at some point a few weeks back (apple mobile device) but iTunes remained working after that for another week. I then updated iTunes and i get the same "Service ‘Apple Mobile Device’ (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." every time. If i click ignore, just so i can access iTunes with out syncing my iPod (touch 2nd gen) i then get 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)" when it has all installed. I don't understand what the problem is anymore as I have looked at other questions on the apple website, carried out the advice and it hasn't work. Any of them.
Tings I have done:
- Wiped all iTunes and Apple data from my computer (if you search for 'iTunes' or 'Apple' nothing comes up apart from applets from system code.
- Attached iPod before iTunes install and updated drivers.
- Installed iTunes as 'Run as administrator'
- Uninstalled and re-installed the software nearly 20 times now and rebooted the computer in between everytime.
Please someone help because i really need to get music on my ipod and i enjoy the ease of use of iTunes compared to spotify or Windows Media Player.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
Regarding AMDS failures there is a hint in another thread that disabling the Windows Firewall before attempting to reinstall may help, otherwise take a look at the steps outlined in this post. Re: Can't install iTunes 12.1 on Windows 7 64-bit. I know they look a little daunting, but the process of generating the logs themselves isn't that hard to do. Extracting useful information from them is still a challenge but maybe something will leap out. If you want to post the log for the failed components for me to have a look at here or in the other thread please edit out any personal information, particularly your email address, first.

Hi, I have an iphone 4 with my itunes library on a Windows XP computer. My spouse (who has now passed away) had an itouch with an itunes library on an IMac. here is the problem, I bought an new iphone 6 and wanted to sync with my windows xp library and of course my itunes version is out of date and I need to update it...well I try and update the version and it will not update the Itunes library and when I researched it I would have to upgrade from XP to Windows 7...r they kidding me...first of all my computer is old and a pain in the *** but I have my itunes library on it. Sp to get my phone working I sync'd it on the IMac and my spouses Itunes library has been sync'd to my iphone and I don't know how to get my library on it...After thinking about it I want to combine the libraries after all there are some purchases on each one.
I have done some research and you have to buy a 3rd party piece of software...this is not the way I want to go...I do not think i should have to buy one and also when I do a goole search there are a ton of them out there and I am sorry i do not trust the comments as some of them do identify that they will get a kick back.
Can someone help, i should be able to export my itunes library from my iphone 4 to the itunes library by appending/importing it...it is not rocked science on what I want to do and I cannot find out any process...
Can someone help ?

If you still have trouble you might consider installing the alternate version iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards) where you can download a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of iTunes that works with older video cards. This version may also be useful for anyone who is unable to get the 64-bit version of Apple Application Support to install when using the itunes6464setup file, or has trouble with playback of certain video files despite having QuickTime installed.

How do i move ipod nano content to a new Windows computer? My old computer died and when i try to sync to itunes on my new Windows computer, it says it will erase what's on the ipod. I can't seem to de-authorize the old computer (it's been recycled).

Hi, I'm an ipod newbie, and unsure of what product i have-i believe it's an ipod nano, but can't seem to find any info on itunes that will identify my product.
how do i move ipod nano music to a new Windows 7 computer? My old computer died and when i try to sync to itunes on my new Windows computer, it says it will erase what's on the ipod. I can't seem to de-authorize the old computer (it's been recycled). Does this mean I have to start all over and read in my CD's into itunes? seems very inflexible/inelegant...
thanks for your help, sorry if this question has already been answered before!

Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version. Error message reads "Application Application Support not found". "Unistall and reload". I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success. Help??

Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version. Error message reads "Application Application Support not found". "Uninstall and reload". I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success. Help??

I had gotten a similar problem, except with "provider services", i believe, but i solved it by copying sqlite3.dll from E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. doing that solved my first problem, but now i have been getting the error described in this topic (unable to load dataclass info... etc.). i tried reinstalling itunes (i already had 9.1.1, and thats what i reinstalled) by using the method described on apples site (using the "remove programs" tool in the control panel) and then downloading and installing itunes. when i opened it again, i still got the same error, and just now i got an error saying "the instruction at "0x00aadb6b" referenced memory at "0x00000008". the memory could not be read" it gave me the option to cancel and debug, or to press ok and terminate the program. I tried pressing cancel, and the popup went away but nothing else happened. a minute later the popup was back, so i pressed ok and itunes quit. Upon opening Itunes again, i got the very same error. sorry for the long post, but its really been bugging me. thanks for any help you might give, and if you need anymore info, feel free to contact me.

ITunes 12 incompatible with Windows Vista Data Execution Prevention FIX

I have been getting a "Vista Data
Execution Prevention" error message whenever I closed iTunes for months
now, and after reading through a few forums, I have found a solution
that works. It only takes two minutes. Long story short:
1) Start iTunes
2) Open the Windows Task Manager
3) Go to the "Proccess" Tab
4) Find "AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe *32" and right click on it.
5) Select "Properties" from the drop down menu
6) Go to the "Compatibility" Tab
7) Check the Box next to "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
8) If "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" is not in the field below, click on the down arrow and select said option.
9) Click on "OK" to close the window.
10) Close the iTunes application
11) Reopen the iTunes application
12) Close the iTunes application again.
At this point you should not see anymore "Vista Data Execution Prevention" error messages when you close iTunes!
P.S.
If you want to go back and de-select running
"AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe *32" in Windows XP Compatibility mode, you
can. Though this part is totally optional. The next time you close
iTunes, you will get one last "Vista Data Execution Prevention" error
message, but don't worry, it will be the last one. Try opening iTunes
again and then closing it, and TaDa, no more error messages. I don't
know why running AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe *32 in compatibility mode
JUST ONCE solves the problem, but it worked for me.
Happy new year \o/

Welcome tocguy. If I may ask you a question: How much memory does your Vista x64 PC have? I have 3 GB, which is the maximum that 32-bit Vista can recognize, but I seem to recall that 64-bit Vista can utilize much more than that, and wonder if that might be why 64-bit users are scarce in the 11.2 thread.
I have now also done a truly clean reinstall, deleting Apple folders in ProgramData and each user account's AppData folder, and even the iTunes folders in each user's Music folder. Of course I moved my iTunes Media folder to a safe location first, and one iTunes Library backup file suitable for version 11.1.5. I also cleaned the registry. The most I can say is that I sometimes don't get a BEX upon closing iTunes now, but usually I do. I deselected one default setting during installation, "Use iTunes as the default player for audio files." (If an audio file can be opened by Media Player 11, why would I want to open it in a program that gives me a BEX nearly every time I use it? Too bad my AAC files purchased at iTunes Store can't be opened by WMP, but I certainly won't be buying any more of those now.) My advice to other Vista users: Don't waste your time reinstalling, it won't solve the DEP problem.
Ran the Program Compatibility Wizard to run iTunes in XP SP2 compatibility mode, but abandoned that idea after the first BEX.
Thought I was onto something when I tried the registry fix at http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2008/06/17/to-dep-or-not-to-dep.aspx. Johnny DEP thought he was so slick when he saw iTunes listed as an exception in his DEP tab, but there was one minor problem (yes I did reboot):
Oh well, it's probably a bad idea to allow buffer overruns anyway. The fact that this didn't work causes me to think that Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit or Application Compatibility Toolkit would also be a waste of time. Vista users who wish to avoid BEX errors can either downgrade their iTunes (free) or upgrade their Windows (not free).

My phone is not showing up in itunes. I want to sync it. I have a MAC and I have restarted the phone, it's charged, I have the most current version of itunes. What do I do now? It says to reinstall itunes if you have windows but not for mac. Help!

With your phone plugged in, open Image Capture and see if the iPhone shows up. If not, you are having a sync problem. If it shows up in Image Capture, but not iTunes, I'd delete iTunes and reinstall it.

Each time I try to install itunes I get a windows installer message telling me that the installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it???????????

Each time I try to install itunes I get a windows installer message telling me that the installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package.....

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
