Itunes always crashes when I download podcasts.

The problem started with upgrade to itunes 10.6 or there about. My computer would crash when playing, crash on importing, crash on downloading podcasts. Most of the problems went away with the itunes 10.6.1 update, but when I try to download podcasts by pressing the "get all" button, the downloading will start and within a few minutes the system will give me the beach ball of death. Force Quit will not work, and nothing else will work either. I then have to press command + control + power (on my keyboard) – to restart. Then I use the button in the back of the imac to restart again. I always have to press both sets of buttons because the first restart always leads me to a non-startup screen with a flashing file folder. When I press the button again the imac finds its hard drive and starts up correctly. Since the "get all" button didn't work I tried to press the individual “get” buttons, but if I hit one button while the other item is downloading it can lead to a beachball and I start all over again! I have a large podcast list and there are still hundreds of podcast episodes left to download.

ITunes always crash when I press the browse button...

if I have opened the browse window in iTunes main window,and then start to play musics, at this moment when I press browse button to close the browse window, iTunes always crashes.
I don't know if it is a bug. Anyone can help me?
thanks

hiya!
Indeed, when crash happend it gave me a popup window to say that it has met a problem and have to be closed.
okay, let's try enlisting some additional technical help then.
we'll get a crash log from itunes, and send it to so someone who can interpret crash logs.
Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
drwtsn32 -i
And hit return.
This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
generate the crash, collect the crash log, and send it to this email address
in the email:
(1) state the precise version number of itunes that you're using.
(2) include the URL to this thread so that the person who gets the email has some context, but also give as much information about the context of the crashing as you can.
love, b

Why does Itunes always crash when exiting?

I have 10.5 installed on Windows 7 64 bit. Almost everytime I exit itunes it crashes and I have to constantly go to the task manager to close it.
I've tried reinstalling but it doesn't seem to be helping. Help plz?

I have read the using itunes in safe mode (pressing CTRL+SHIFT when you open it) helps the problem, although this is not a long term solution. If using itunes in safe mode does stop the problem, then there must be a 3rd party application that is causing the crash. I have turned off all non essential start up programs (through MSCONFIG) to see if that also helps, but haven't had the chance to test it out properly yet. I will let you know how I get on.

Why does my Itunes always crash when I go to the Itunes store?

During the past couple of months I have noticed that my Itunes crashes every single time I try to go to the Itunes store. I have tried fixing the utility disk thing, and I have completely unistalled and re-installed itunes with the new version. Is there something I'm missing??

Let's try the following user tip with that one:

ITunes always crashes when I try to goto purchased

Itunes starts up fine and does everything fine but one thing. When I try to goto the iTunes Store and then go to Purchased it starts to load but then crashes after loading 2/3 of the way through. It did this in 10.4 and again still in 10.5. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I have not cleared it from my registry as I am unsure which registry items are connected with itunes. I am running this on a Windows 7 Professional machine.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
-Go to Settings>Messags>Send and receive and sign out and sign back in
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My iTunes keeps crashing when i try to refresh the podcasts

my itunes keeps crashing when i try to refresh the podcasts

Fixed the problem!
I tried to redownload itunes
delete plist
use time machine to get an old version of itunes
no luck
I called support
they had me redownload itunes. And before I started itunes they had me drag itunes off the dock, then drag itunes from the applications folder onto the dock and presto no more crashes!
Apparently the Mac will still use the old files unless you drag the icon off of the dock! She said a part of the upgrade must have been corrupted during download the first time

Hi my itunes program crashes when i try to access the itunes store. Have tried to uninstall and reinstall to no avail.

Hi my itunes program crashes when i try to access the itunes store. Have tried to uninstall and reinstall to no avail.

Me too - running iTunes 10.5.3 on Windows 7. Will allow me to sign in to iTunes, download app updates and then if I either close iTunes or try to sign out of my iTunes account it all freezes. So frustrating, because my understanding is that iTunes saves the library file when exiting. So, everytime I update apps I lose all the downloads.

ITunes always crashing on HP computer

Hey Everyone,
I have a problem that is really annoying: iTunes always crashes, every time!!
I have a HP Pavilion dv6 laptop running Windows 7. I first downloaded iTunes on this computer round about January 2010 and even with iTunes 10 it still does it!!
Does anyone know how to fix this??
From HeathH737

Error-message-free iTunes quits? They're not so common nowadays. The more likely error-message-free trouble is an iTunes launch failure ... but that tends to happen all the time.
Better check something quickly that can help with an error message free launch failure, just in case it helps with your one too.
In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
Expand "Services & Applications".
Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time? Does it stay launched?

You don't have the typical symptoms that I associate the following issue with (normally the error kicks in just when folks visit the Store), but just in case try gn_id's suggestion from the following post:

IOS5 Music App crashing when going to podcasts

My music app keeps crashing whenever I select the "podcast" tab in the music app.
Here have been the steps I've taken so far:
1. Connect to iTunes, remove podcasts from phone
2. Upon doing this, the music app crashes instantly upon opening
3. If I select "reset all settings" on the phone, the music app will start back up - but continue to crash when navigating to podcast tab
Notes
+ If I select my computer library (home sharing) within the music app, the podcasts show up and play fine (pulling from my computer)
+ The "Muisc +" app accesses all my music and plays fine (but I can't get to podcasts from within that app)
+ I can use voice commands to play a music - and skip forward/back from the lock screen
Hardware:
iPhone 4, ATT, 32GB
iOS 5.0.1
Any help/suggestions?

I'm still having this issue - wanted to add some additional details:
+if i search on my iPhone (swipe all the way to the left home screen), several podcasts show up; even after syncing and telling iTunes to sync 1 most recent podcast or none at all
+I can play these podcasts from the "search" menu, but when I hit back, it brings me to the default music app tab, and if i tab to the podcast tab (even with the podcast playing), the app will crash
+in iTunes, when I set my podcasts to only keep the most recent one, then sync my phone - it will pull these random podcasts back into iTunes
+The date on these podcasts is 12/31/00 (even though they are from 2011)
It seems like the "12/31/00" labeled podcasts are impossible to delete and causing my music app to crash.
