ITunes closes right after opening

My iTunes started "performing an illegal operation" right after opening, then closing, a few days ago. I've tried every trick I know, been through every support scenario on their website, and looked at all kinds of forums to try and fix the problem, but nothing's been working. I've found out that the "quicktimeh264.qtx" file is the problem, but I have no idea what to do. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime, and that didn't help. Any ideas?

Sorry, wrong forum, I'll repost it in the right one.

Creative Cloud closes right after opening.

Hello.
My creative cloud apps close right after I open them.
For an example I'll take photoshop. I click it, I get the photoshop logo.
After the logo disappears I get the Photoshop screen. But it only remains open for a few seconds, and then closes right after.
No error messages, no warning, it just closes.
It's not just PS, every app I have installed has the same reaction.
I have tried:
The font thing I found on here. - Didn't work
Reinstalling the apps - Didn't work
Reinstalling Creative Cloud - Didn't work

Itunes crashing right after opening???

i update the program and now it crashes right after opening! can any one help?

ljsilicon ,
Did you have iTunes 9.0 installed previously, and did it open without issue?
I would like to get a crash log from you. In order to get a crash log on Vista, you will need to enable crash logging.
Important: These steps involve making changes to the Windows registry using the Registry Editor (Regedit). Even if you are very comfortable editing the registry, you should make a backup of the registry prior to editing it. Making mistakes in Regedit can cause strange behavior and can even prevent Windows from starting. Look here for instructions on how to back up your registry in Windows Vista:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756
1. Open the Windows Start menu.
2. Type regedit in the search field and click OK.
3. In Registry Editor, navigate to HKEYCURRENTUSER\Software\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes
4. Right-click on the iTunes folder and choose New > DWORD Value.
5. Name the new value "GenerateCrashLogs" without the quotation marks and press Enter.
6. Right-click GenerateCrashLogs and choose Modify.
7. Change Value data from 0 to 1.
8. Click OK.
Now, when iTunes crashes, a crash log file will be created. A message will appear telling you where to find the crash log file. Please attach that file to an email to me <[email protected]>. Make the subject line of the email "iTunes 9.0.1 crash on launch" and let me know whether or not you were seeing this in iTunes 9.0. Also make sure to include a link to this thread and the username you are using on Discussions.

Final Cut Express HD (3.5) closes right after opening?

Hi,
I believe years ago I had this same issue and it was as simple as deleting the preferences (??).
Basically, what's happening is I just installed FCE HD (3.5) on my G4. I meet the system requirements to run the application AND Soundtrack Pro and LiveType open and run fine. FCE closes immediately after opening and then I get an error: "The Application Final Cut Express Quit Unexpectedly."
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Yeah, sorry for being so confusing. That's exactely what I did. Since my main HD is 500Gb and my secondary drive is 120Gb, I just copied all the necessary files to the 500, formatted the 120, reinstalled OSX, and booted to it. The intention was to let the FCE software think it was installing on a fresh drive (which, it was).
However, even then it won't let me install FCE. Just LT and Soundtrack. ?? I'm a bit confused because the system requirements for Soundtrack and LT are the same for FCE.
I'm trying to install it on a Dual 1.25ghz G4 Quicksilver with 1.5Gb Ram. ??
The funny thing is I WAS able to install the complete program initially when I got it. I had a previous copy of Final Cut Express (1) on my main drive. I ran the FCE HD installer, and the program installed just fine. However, it kept closing right after it would open. I figured it was a preference conflict between the newer version (3.5) and the old version (1.1). So, I've done my best trying to erase all evidence of FCE ever being on the drive and still get nowhere ??
Thanks!

IDVD 7.1.2 closes right after opening in OS 10.9.5

I have a 27-inch iMac (Mid 2010) with a 2.93 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory and a 1TB SATA Internal Hard Drive. I have the most current issue of iDVD (7.1.2) which worked fine when I created a DVD on August 24, 2014. I then upgraded my OS to Mavericks (10.9.5) on September 24, 2014. On October 12, I attempted to make a DVD from a short video I had taken and iDVD closes or crashes 10 to 15 seconds after opening. This leads me to believe that for some reason it is not compatible with Mavericks.
I am wondering if this is the case or if there is a fix for this. If not is there another DVD creating program available in the App store that would work as good or better that I could purchase to solve this dilemma.

Try this basic troubleshooting fix:
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents of IDVD'S cache folder: User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD.
3 - launch IDVD and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks or Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

Apps close right after opening - IOS 5

Just upgraded my ipad 2 to ios 5. Some apps that worked fine before upgrading ios, now close a few seconds after opening them. Any clues on how to solve this? (already tried reboot, delete app and re-install... doesn't work)

I was under the impression that any apps that you currently had on your iPad would work with the new updated iOS. However, I can't remember why I even think that but I probably read here on this site.
In any event, I believe the overwhelming majority of your apps should still work even if some will not under the new iOS. What I'm saying is that there may be something else going on that will require something additional on your part - perhaps restoring your device to factory settings and then restore to your backup.
iBooks is an Apple App but there are other reasons why the apps could be crashing. You could try closing all of the apps in the recents tray and restart and see if that helps, but you may need to restore your device(s) if nothing else works.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Itunes closes shortly after opening

My friend is running itunes on Windows XP and every time she opens itunes, the bar runs across the top showing that it is accessing the itunes store, but then suddenly itunes closes. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Sorry I can't answer but I'm having EXACTLY the same problem. I have sussed though that if you click the X in the bar part you can access your library still but it's still frustrating not being able to access the store. Could you let me know if you sort it please?

DVD tray closing right after opening.

Hi, everybody!
I just bought a sata DVD recorder and I'm having some problems with it. During the startup, I receive the following message repeatedly:
ata4: hard resetting link
ata4: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
ata4.00: configured for UDMA/100
ata4: EH complete
ata4.00: exception Emask 0x100 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6
ata4: hard resetting link
Then, when I try to open the tray, it closes right after opening (either by pressing the eject button or using the command line). Even with only one second, I managed to insert a disc, just to see if the system would recognize it. The DVD was read normally, but I almost broke the disc trying to insert it on the drive. First, I thought it could be a problem with the drive, so I replaced it with another model, but the problem persisted. I have dual boot with Windows XP and the problem is not happening in that OS. I don't know what kind of information would be useful to provide. My system is up-to-date and I tried both a Samsung drive and a LG (which is the current one).
Thanks.

Here's the output:

Web apps close right after they open

I did the upgrade this morning and now when I open any of the apps the I down loaded from the app store they close right after they launch. I've tried several apps and they all close but the original app work fine. I turned the phone off and also did the reboot by holding the off and home button until the apple came back.

i can no longer log into my ichat linked to my gmail. right after opening up ichat, receive the following message: lost connection with jabber. the server has unexpectedly disconnected. how to troubleshoot? thanks.

Hi,
There can be many reasons why the Login is "up the creek".
Any break in the network at your end whilst logged in will cause an issue.
A sort of discrepancy between what iChat thinks the state should be and what the server thinks.
If they don't agree the server will refuse to accept.
A Crash at the server end which does not log you out properly will also do it.
Any file at any time can be come corrupted.
Luckily with the iChat .plists they are recreated if removed with an iChat Restart.
If it were AIM you can also get your Account Suspended and this will not log you in.
(It tends to happen from Chat rooms where people notify AIM about bad behaviour (as they see it) and you have to apply to get Un-suspended).
Most of the big IM services use multiple servers.
Sometimes these go out of Sync.
In the case of AIM this happens when they remove Old unused Screen Names from people's Buddy List prior to making them available for re-registration. I am not sure if this happens at Google.
You seem to be talking about an account that has worked at Work and having new computer at home.
As I mentioned the Priority thing you have not said that it has coincided with the new computer logging in (this will kick the work Computer out of Google whether you are logged in on the Web Mail page or in iChat)
IN addition to that iChat stays partially logged in for Off Line IMs
This is done in the background by a support app called iChatAgent
If your Computer is ON but ichat is not started people can still send you Messages.
Instead of saving these on the server until you login iChat will start up.
Depending if the home Mac is effecting the Work Login it may be holding sway over your Login.
Using your girlfriend's login may have booted her Off Line where she normally uses the name/login.
The AIM Side can be specifically set to allow Multiple Logins and therefore NOT allow them. If this happens you get a warning and messages to do something about it.
You do not get these in any Jabber or Google Login as the Priority setting is supposed to take care of it.
If the Login works at the Web Mail Login and on one computer then the .plist on the work computer is the most likely issue.
There is a small chance that a Corrupt Buddy Pic (Home Folder/Library/Caches/com.apple.iChat/Pictures) may be the cause.
Set this folder to icon view and also use the Finder's View Menu > Show View Options and select icon view.
This should show all pics as their icon.
Check that all display properly.
At this point I would try a COMBO version update install of the last Update you did over what you have.

Every CC app closes immediately after opening

Hey there
I've seen this question asked over and over again with a different answer most times. When I launch any CC app (i.e. DW & Photoshop), they'd close right after they finish loading. Only notable exception is Lightroom... but of course, that's not lightroom I need right now.
- I cleared my previous CS6 install, even removed flash player. Ran Ccleaner twice including multiple rebbots. All fresh from any Adobe stuff.
- I do not have GROWL installed on my system.
- I did sign in/out/in the creative cloud app.
- I did try different install location.
- I tried ALL CAPS and no caps for my login.
I got my 1 year subscription paid upfront; this is friday night & I'm VERY upset as I do have work to do !
Can someone please help ?
Greg

Hey there sorry to hear you're facing the same pb.
Let me save you hours with the support queues. You won't fix this. Simple.
The only thing that worked was to reimage my system. On a fresh install it worked right away. It's painful but really so much quicker than the time i spent trying to rootcause with the support folks on the phone.
Once it's behind you, things are good.
