ITunes closes and disappears off my pc!

I brought my iPod Nano into work and plugged it. Downloaded iTunes and synced my pod. It played my songs ok for about 20 mins, then it kept automatically closing iTunes in the middle of a song and after three times it closed down and iTunes was gone from pc. I reinstalled, restarted my pc and everything and it just happened again!
Has anyone else had this problem?

When people talk about iTunes being "gone" they can
mean a number of things so perhaps you could be a
little more specific.
Do you mean that iTunes closed down by itself in the
middle of a song and now you are having trouble
getting iTunes to start? Can you describe what
happens, the more you can say about your problem, the
more likely it is that someone will be able to help.
If it is a problem getting iTunes to start, this
article may help you sort it out.

Thanks polydorus.
iTunes is closing down by itself in the middle of a song and when I say it disappears, the program seems to get wiped off/unstalled from the pc. No messages pop up and all I am left with is shortcut that no longer has the icon and when I click it I get the message:
'This action is only valid for products that are installed'

    (p.s. I do suspect a deletion has occurred courtesy of my 4 year old nephew, some other stuff has gone too, but beats me how he deleted a whole program!!!)

  • My iTunes app has disappeared off my iPad? Does anybody know how to recover it?

    My iTunes app has disappeared off my iPad? Does anybody know how to recover it?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I just got an Itunes giftcard and scratched off to get the code and thought I had redeemed it but I go to get songs and it said it is already redeemed but won't let me buy them? Don't know what is going on?

    I just got an Itunes giftcard and scratched off to get the code and thought I had redeemed it but went to get songs and it takes me back to the redeemed part and it says it is already redeemed but I can't buy the songs weird! help!

    You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • ITunes Closes And I Can Directly Relate It To Two Things

    I had the problem before with opening itunes but now have shut off all the start ups and everything. It will run fine but after a certain amount of time two startup programs called wiqwyc and xhwx pop up in my startups as files i wont to have on and then my itunes closes. I have searched by the command name and am not able to find these two things. If i can find a way to turn these things off and stay off my itunes would work fine. ANY HELP IS THANKED.

    You look like you have a case of 'malware' infecting your system.
    I did a search on the Discussions for this and the work the 'b noir' has done. See the link below and view as many threads as you can. It may help. I'll send b your way as well.

  • ATV looses network connection if PC reboots or iTunes closes and reopens.

    ATV looses network connection upon iTunes closing (i.e computer turning off or going to sleep.) I'm then required to re-input the network password (p.i.t.a.) every time I come home from work, or the power surges, or iTunes closes, etc.
    Thoughts?

    Hi Lucy,
    To address the suggestions you made:
    There's too much code, performance needs to be
    improved.  - Does anybody know of useful utilities to monitor cpu
    performance as a sort of watch dog.
    There is a software package called the Execution Trace Toolkit you can use to monitor the performance of your Real Time applications. If you have access to this software through a developer suite or a site license it would be worth installing that.
    If not there are a number of other things you can try first.
    The network or vi server is shutting down - Again, I'd appreciate some help on how to monitor this.
    To determine if the problem is caused by the network you should connect to the cRIO with a cross over cable and see if you see the same behaviour. This will help determine if the problem is down to the network or the cRIO system.
    Once you've isolated the source of the problem (ie the crio or the network) we can investigate the cause and hopefully come up with a resolution.
    Kind regards

  • When opening my apps they close and go off

    Hi, Ive had an Ipad 2 for about 2 years now, and still does its job on the internet and that, but recently I was playing a game called First Touch 2014 when it just froze and went off, and its been like that for 2 weeks as soon as i click on the game, just shoots straight off, but the main one that i want to sort out is my Game Center, from last night it just shoots off, as soon as i click on it, bang straight off, you see the points for like 2 seconds, and then straight off, to the home screen,
    occasionally when i'm on the home screen, it will just shoot off the page, and go straight to the home page but i can still open the safari app afterwards , but dosent always open right back to where i was,
    its more the game center im after sorting, I dont know why its playing up like this,
    If anyone could help that would be much appreciated,
    Thank You
    Gareth.

  • I downloaded tv shows from the itunes store but they wont play. itunes closes and it says its encountered a problem.

    My downloaded tv shows won't play. Itunes just closes.

  • Has anyone tried emailing after the Yosemite upgrade?  The size of the email pane is enormous and cannot be resized so I cannot see what I am typing as it disappears off screen to the right.  This must surely be a fault?

    The email window pane is huge and disappears off screen and I have not found any way to resize it.  This means I cannot see what I am typing as the text disappears to the right off the screen.  Only way to see what you are typing is to drag the pane to the left and then back again when the cursor moves to a new line.  This surely must be a fault with the new Yosemite OS X?

    Thanks, Bee!  I never knew that one--it does resize the screen.  But, what I want to do is resize it from the corner, or from the side, or from the top.  I'd like to move it to another place on the page, if I need to. The bigger problem is that I can no longer click and drag to highlight a word or phrase, etc.  Both of these things happened in Office and in Safari after I downloaded Yosemite. I feel sure that it is just some little trick like the one you suggested or some box that I need to tick to get things working like I've always known them to be.  Thanks for any help you can give...

  • ITunes closes while updating iPod

    Everytime I hook up my iPod mini to update it, iTunes closes and Windows asks to send an error report. Yeah. I need help. It's not the iPod. I tried it on my friend's PC and it loaded songs on the iPod just fine. (I'm now stuck with an iPod full of pop music...) I've reinstalled iTunes like twice and I don't know what to do next.
    (iTunes works fine until I hook the stupid iPod up...)

    I am having the same problem and it did not start until after I updated to the latest version. Can anybody help?

  • Itunes closes when I try to play a movie

    Hi there.
    I just bought a movie from the itunes store and whenever I try to play it, itunes closes and says "itunes quit unexpectedly." I also tried playing it with quicktime and the same thing happens. Does anyone know why this is? I paid 9.99 to download the movie so I hope I can get it to work!
    Thanks a lot

    Please, does anyone have any ideas how I could get my movie to play?
    thank you

  • ITunes will not shut off. Since I upgraded the software, itunes opens no matter what program I am using and when I close it , it will just reopen over whatever I am using.  this is very annoying!!!!

    iTunes will not shut off.  Since I upgraded my software, itunes opens no matter what program I am trying to use.  If I close it it automatically opens moments later and interferes with what I am working on. This is so annoying

    This is probably occuring because your Mac is attempting to wirelessly sync with a device. Try unchecking the checkbox that reads "Open iTunes when device is connected" (this option can be found under the general page of iTunes when you have a device connected).

  • My iTunes wont close and is preventing my laptop from shutting down

    I plugged out my iPod touch when iTunes was asking me whether I wanted an update or not, and now iTunes wont close and has frozen, preventing my laptop from shutting down. I have intel Celeron inside and Windows 7.

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

  • My iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

    my iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

    It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
    Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.
    At this point I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Jailbreak tweaks that can enable what I want. Unless of course it's agaisnt the rules of this forum to mention jailbreak stuff...
