ITunes 12.1.1 App Store stops working in Windows 8.1

Hello,
Often (almost every time now) when I am browsing the App Store with iTunes (v12.1.1) I suddenly get a "iTunes Has Stopped Working" message and then iTunes closes.  I am running Windows 8.1 with all the latest updates installed.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks,
Michael Reisman

  • After I upgrade lion to Mavericks, App Store stopped working, any idea how to fix this?

    After I upgraded OS lion to Mavericks, in app store I had some new updates, then after a system update, which require restart, then App Store, stopped working, any one can tell me what should I do to fix this problem?

    Guys just contact apple support team . They will guide you well and your problem will most probably be resolved. I contacted them and following their instructions my mac is working totally fine again. If at all the problem persist the re-install mavericks by following steps
    1). Switch of mac
    2). Hold option/alt key and then switch it on.
    3). Then choose your language and continue.
    4). Now Re-Install OS X .
    5). It will start downloading and installing.
    6). Leave it idle for the required amount of time.
    7). It will restart automatically and your problem will be definitely resolved.
    Note:
    a. If there is any problem of connection follow the same steps and the downloading will start where it stopped.

  • App Store stopped working on Iphone 5 Ios 8

    App store on my wife's Iphone 5 running Ios 8 stopped working initially to update two Apps (Line & Facebook Messenger).  Troubleshooting so far:
    - Hard reset.
    - Logged out of App store, Hard reset, logged back in.
    - Deleted Messenger, logged out of App store, Hard reset, logged back in.  Now can't install Messenger at all!
    - Tried with WiFi only.
    - Tried with Cell only
    - Tried hooked up to computer/Itunes
      Really frustrating!  When works the way it's supposed to I'll think about using Apple's spelling.  For now it's Iphone, not iPhone.

    I am having the same problem.  My iPhone is 1 week old, and as of last night, 10/11/12, my app store would not function corretly.  I can open the app store but the following tabs do not work:  Featured, charts, and search.  By "do not work" I mean that the gray spinning wheel will go for a while and then stop as if it is finished loading but the screed will still be blank aside from the top and bottom banners of the app.  The Genius and Updates tab work fine.  This is very annoying and nothing I have done so far has fixed it.  I have restarted the app, restarted my phone, "hard" restarted my phone, and reset my network settings.  I have also tried accessing the app store on wifi and 3g/4g and neither work.  Everything has been done except a factory reset of my phone but I am avoiding that for now.  I have seen MANY others in the forums with this concern so is there anyone that has successfully solved this problem?
    Help would be much appreciated.

  • Updates tab in Mac App Store stopped working.

    I don't have time to test all of these to find out for sure which one it may be, so I thought I'd post it here in case someone might already know the answer. I disabled and removed a bunch of features from my iMac running Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and one of these caused the Updates section of the Mac App Store to stop working and return the error "The App Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." Anybody know what might be causing this? Thanks, and please don't bother asking why I would do any of this, that doesn't help. This isn't a complete list of things I changed but I've narrowed it to one/some of these.

    Rebooting didn't help BUT loging out, loging in to a different account, logging out again and loging in to my original account seemed to work.  Must have been a cashe problem.

  • ITunes 12.1.0.71 has stopped working on windows 7

    I updated my itunes with the new 12.0.1 update. When the update finished, i restart my pc and then i can't open the itunes. "iTunes has stopped working". What should i do?
    iTunes, Windows 7

    Good Afternoon aperaf,
    If iTunes for Windows won't launch after the recent update, try these troubleshooting steps:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT203206
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues 
    If iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 won't open, stops responding, or unexpectedly quits, try using the steps below. You may want to print this document before following these steps.
    Follow these steps if you're having issues installing iTunes.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.Create a new user account
    By creating a new user account, you can determine if the issue affects a specific Windows user account or all accounts. Follow the steps below to create a new user account in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    Choose Start > Control Panel.
    Open "Add or remove user accounts." (If you're using the Classic view in Windows Vista, open "User Accounts," and then open "Manage another account.")
    Select "Create a new account" and follow the instructions to set up the account.
    Once you create the new account, choose Start > Log Off.
    Log in to the new user account.
    Open iTunes and see if the issue you're experiencing persists in this new user account.
    If you have the same issue in the new user account, proceed to the "System-wide troubleshooting" section. If you don't experience the same issue, proceed to the "User-specific troubleshooting" section.User-specific troubleshooting
    If you experience the issue in one particular user account, the suggestions below may resolve the issue. Before proceeding, you'll need to make hidden files and folder visible in Windows using steps 1-5.
    Remove iTunes Preference files. Some of the files that iTunes stores settings and preferences in may be unusable. iTunes saves its preferences in two folders. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The locations for the preference folders are:
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Create a new iTunes Library.
    Hold the Shift key while opening iTunes. You'll be asked to choose an iTunes library.
    Choose Create Library.
    In the following window, select a location to save the new iTunes Library.
    Click Save. iTunes will open the new library. After you close iTunes, you can always select the original library by holding the Shift key while opening iTunes.
    Recreate your iTunes Library. If your iTunes library has become unusable, rebuilding it may resolve the issue.
    Check for issues with content files. Sometimes an audio file can cause iTunes to quit unexpectedly or stop responding when it's analyzing gapless playback information. To determine which file may be causing the issue, follow the steps below:
    Quit iTunes.
    Navigate to the iTunes folder:
    Windows 7 and Windows 8:c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes
    Move the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop.
    Open iTunes. You shouldn't see any content in iTunes.
    Choose File > Add Folder to Library.
    Navigate to the folder where your music is located:
    Windows 7 and Windows 8:c:\users\username\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    Choose an artist, album, or song to add to the library.
    Wait for iTunes to successfully add the item to your library and perform the gapless playback scan.
    If successful, continue adding songs to your library.
    If there is an issue with one of your files, you'll notice your issue reappear after you add it to the library. You should repeat these steps, being careful not to add the files that caused the issue.
    System-wide troubleshooting
    When troubleshooting system-wide issues with iTunes, try these steps:
    Check for viruses. Windows viruses can interfere with a variety of computer functions, including iTunes.
    Make sure that you have current anti-virus software installed with up-to-date virus definitions.
    Scan your system.
    Check for anti-virus and Internet security software. Internet security software may cause iTunes to quit unexpectedly. Try disabling the Internet security software temporarily or exempting iTunes from any active scanning done by the software. If this resolves the issue, check with the maker of the software for an update to the software or its virus definitions. Learn more about fixing security software issues.
    Check for conflicting processes. Sometimes other programs and startup items can conflict with iTunes. Learn how to troubleshoot conflicts using Msconfig in Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.
    Remove iTunes configuration files. Removing unusable configuration files from iTunes can resolve launch issues.
    Check the iTunes installations. An improper installation of iTunes can contribute to a variety of issues. Follow these steps to completely reinstall iTunes.
    Update the drivers on your PC. Outdated drivers on your computer can cause strange behavior with iTunes, iPod devices, and other apps. Learn how to update the drivers on your computer.

  • The App store stopped accepting my credit card all of a sudden. It says that my credit card is "not supported by the Chilean app store"... The credit card is Chilean and was working just fine. Help!

    This is the second time this happens. I was living in the US until April 2011. I moved to Chile and kept using the App Store and the iTunes Store just fine with my US-issued credit card. However, when I accessed my Apple ID from a different device, the store stopped recognizing my credit card information and migrated my ID to the "Chilean" App & Itunes Store (significantly less apps & music... but anyway). I started using my Chilean credit card on the App and iTunes store with no issues. I supposed that the devices catched that I was no longer in the US and that I had to be transferred to the related store (which I think is fine), and that because I was now in the Chilean store I needed to use a Chilean-issued credit card (which doesn't make sense to me, I still don't understand why Apple stopped accepting my US credit card if it is accepted everywhere else in the world online and offline!).
    However, yesterday I bought something from my iPad and when today I went to use the app store from my iPhone the SAME THING happened. I got the same request to "update my billing information", I confirmed my Chilean credit card info and, surprise! "Your credit card is not supported by the Chilean app store"...
    I don't get it. If I didn't get it the first time, I ended up accepting it an getting over it because ok, I moved to another country and my account was migrated, etc. But now, it doesn't recognize my local credit card in my local store! I tried both my local Visa and my local MasterCard, and none of them worked. It looks like my account will not accept ANY credit card, no matter wheter I try to update the info from my mobile devices, on iTunes, on the Mac App Store, etc.
    It has been impossible for me to find any information on what causes this and on how to solve it, and so far I hadn't had any trouble with Apple and hadn't need any support before, but now that I need URGENT SUPPORT, I've come to realize that THEY SUCK at being accessible! There's no way I can contact them! So, please help me!!!!! I need urgent help!!!!
    Thanks and sorry for the very long post.

    Has it been 24 hours?
    I take it this was a gift card.  iTunes Store:  Invalid, Inactive, or Illegible codes http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292 - gift cards
    I don't know if this provides an alternative means: https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'iTunes' in the first column; 'iTunes Store' in the second column
    If you are really desperate you could buy the app yourself, then request reimbursement.

  • TS1424 HELLO! whenever i try to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop i get this message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is availabl

    for a few weeks i have not been able to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop. every time i click on it it tells me it cannot access the store...not sure why. and says this: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.

    I had this exact same problem.  I found this fix and it worked for me. 
    Step 1:
    Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll. 
    Step 2:
    Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
    Hope this helps you.  I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
    Good Luck.
