Itunes crashes when store is opened

Hello Support,
I'm running Itunes on WIN64. Currently Itunes (Updated) has stopped working in the last few weeks i think, it was crashing at startup but i followed someones suggestion to fix this (I think it was deleting the SC Info files) and it worked, but now i can't get the Itunes store to load, while loading it stops responding. I was wondering if there is anyway to fix this?
Thanks, John

Please Delete this thread. I found the answer (FIX), i fully re installed Itunes from the directions i used on your website. Thanks very much amen

ITunes crashing when trying to open "apps" folder when iPhone is connected.

When I plug in my iPhone and try to open the "apps" folder, itunes crashes. This problem occurs everytime I try to open the "apps" folder. Please help?

There seems to be a bug in EAS when opening large outlines. If you look in the tmp directory "C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\tmp" on my machine you will see that every 5-6 min a copy of the otl file with a randomly generated name gets created. Something is timing out and EAS trys again with a newly numbered random otl file name - this goes on till you cancel. The files get left in there forever.
The solution should be to increase a timeout setting someplace but I have not been able to find it and previous appeals here and on network54 have not yielded any results.
There is a work-around however. Make your outline faster to open. If the ESSCMDQ utility does not work, try putting the otl file on an ssd drive. If you do not have one you can try a memory mapped IO trick: copy the outline someplace. Then try to open the original again - it will most likely now be sitting in memory and will open up fast enough not to generate the timeout problem.
Of course delete the copy at some point.
I also make it a practice to periodically clear out the abandoned junk in the tmp directory - the op system will not allow you to delete any file still in use so just del * (boy does that sound dangerous but it works).
Now if someone has a better way I would love to know it.

ITunes crashing when connecting to the store on Windows 8.1

Hello,
I had iTunes crashing when connecting to the iTunes Store with an Apple ID. I tried unsucessfully all the solutions posted on the many threads of people having the same issue. So I decided to reinstall Windows. A clean Windows 8.1 install from the Microsoft DVD. And guess what, it is still crashing! How can this even be possible?
The problem:
- iTunes crashes when connecting to the store with an Apple ID. It connects, briefly freezes, then crashes.
- I can access the store without an Apple ID without crashes. But it crashes as soon as I connect with an Apple ID.
The system:
- A clean, fully updated, Windows 8.1 Pro w/ WMC install from the Microsoft DVD.
- Applications I installed, along with iTunes: Adobe Reader, Google Chrome, Skype, Office 2013. Nothing else. No crapware. No nothing. These are fairly common applications that shouldn't conflict with iTunes.
- Antivirus is the built-in Windows Defender.
- Firewall is the built-in Windows Firewall.
- Intel HD Graphics 3000 on an Acer V3-571-6486
- I have not moved Apple's folder from Romaing and Local AppData of the old systems... So it's a clean iTunes profile.
- I can sucessfully sign-in to the iTunes Store with this account on another computer
- I have tried with multiple accounts on this computer, all crashing
There are tons of threads about this. I tried all the solutions posted, including:
- Adding "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" to the PATH environment variable
- Copying QTMovieWin.dll from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes"
- Moving QTMovieWin.dll from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes"
- Updating the graphics card to the latest available driver from Intel's website (9.17.10.3517, 2014-10-04)
- Downgrade the graphics driver (9.17.10.3347, 2014-01-29)
- Use the graphic's driver from Acer's website.
- Use Microsoft's Basic VGA Driver
- Disable the Graphic's Adapter entirely
- Have tried to monitor the process with ProcMon, looking for a hint like a missing file or registry entry, but have not found anything helpful.
These solutions seem to have worked for almost everyone, but not me. The crash details in the Windows Application log are useless. Faulty module name is 'unknown'.
I am out of solutions. Is there anything left to do? Can anyone out Apple debug the dump file or something? Is there any way to contact Apple about this issue?
Many thanks.

Hey zoyashahab,
Ok, so it sounds like there are two issues here we want to address, the first being the iTunes Store connection issue and the second being iTunes not recognizing your iOS devices.
First, I'd start with troubleshooting the recognition by following the steps in here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If after getting that running again, you still can't connect to the iTunes Store, then I'd go through the troubleshooting steps in here:

ITunes crashes when I'm trying to log in into iTunes store

After I've made my first purchase (of a music album) in iTunes store iTunes has crashed. And now iTunes crashes when I'm trying to log in into iTunes store. I've tried removing it, deleting iTunes folder in C:\Users\USER_NAME\Music and then installing iTunes. The problem's remained.
Additional info:
iTunes version: 11.3.1.2
Windows 8.1 64-bit.

I've solved the problem by updating Windows.

ITunes crashes when trying to access iTunes Store

iTunes "crashes" when I try to access the iTunes Music store - I get all the current albums on the lower half of the page, but as the main part tries to load (lady gaga or whoever) iTunes "crashes" - I get the "ignore, report or relaunch" box. iTunes works fine otherwise.
Here's what I'm using - Quicksilver PPC G4 @ 1.47GHz w/ 1GB RAM - OS X 10.5.8, iTunes 10.2.2, Quick Time 7.6.9, Safari 5.0.5. No Keychain problems - at least First Aid reports no problems, repaired permissions and rebooted. As far as I can tell, this issue started after the most recent iTunes update (which is why I hate so much to do so). Anyway, I'm buying all my music at Amazon at the moment, so if Apple wants me back in THEIR store I kinda need a fix for this.
Thanks in advance to all for your help -
Robert
P. S. - is it just me, or is this new "discussions" format really a step backwards?

Well, as far as I can see, no one has responded to this question. Nor do I see any solutions mentioned in other questions by folks having the same problem. So I can only assume that there IS no fix.
Oh well, I know that one user is just "small potatoes" as far as the iTunes Store is concerned, but they've just lost this frequent little revenue stream - their loss, Amazon's gain.
Good-bye iTunes store - it was fun while it lasted...

ITunes crashes when I attempt to open my iPhone within iTunes

Since updating iTunes and installing the latest iphone software iTunes crashes when I attempt to open my iphone in the device panel. I therefore cannot perform any manual functions on my phone through iTunes. I'm running 10.7.3 and iTunes 10.6.
Any suggestions?

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

ITunes and QT crashes when trying to open mp4, wav and mp3

Hi.
QT or iTunes crashes when I try to open files such as MP3, MP4 and WAV. And even when I want to watch a video on Youtube so it only plays 2 seconds and then white box.
I've installed QT X and then removed it and re-installed QT7 because I thought that was the problem, but I have the same problem even after re-installation of the QT Player 7 by the OSX installDVD.
Can anyone here tell me what is the solution to this?
Thanks.
More info:
Perian 1.2.3 and Flash Player are installed.

Can anyone here tell me what is the solution to this?
Usually by a logical process of elimination. The first step would normally be to determine if the proble is local or global. This can be tested by thre creation of a second user account and checking to see if the same problem exists. I.e., if the problem does not exist, then it is local to you first user account and may be something as simple as a corrupt PLIS file. On the other hand, if the proble exists in both user accounts, the it is a global problem like a corrupt application, a conflict with another app, or an OS-wide problem. Basically, the results of each test gives some indication of what you should try next.

ITunes crashes when I connect my iPod to the PC when iTunes is running....

I have written about this problem before, but there have not been any successful solutions as of this date. I will explain my situation a little further and maybe someone can help.
Most of the time, when I connect my iPod to my pc while iTunes is running, the instance the iPod shows up on the library site, and whenever I move the cursor, iTunes crashes, so I have to close iTunes right away and try to disconnect my iPod. Most of the time, a message comes up that says info is being transferred to the ipod and that I shouldn't disconnet it at that time, but I usually go ahead because I know it isn't transferring at that time, since itunes has crashed.
Sometimes, after I have clicked on the first message to go ahead and disconnect my ipod, another messages comes up that says something to the effect of, "You can't disconnect because it is being used by another server at this time." So I click "OK" and then iTunes stays on for a few moments which gives me time to transfer a song or two, but then itunes crashes as soon as it finished transferring or before it finishes.
As anyone can imagine, this has really become a hugh problem. Having an iPod and not being able to use iTunes makes it very unhandy. I'm not able to add any new music or any of the playlists which i have been working on. Does anyone have a solution, or any suggestions as to what may be going on? It would be deeply appreciated.
I plan to restore my iPod in a day or two if I don't get a solution to this, but I don't have all of the music, videos, etc. that I have on the iPod since I removed much of it from iTunes to help the computer run faster. I had over 2000 items in the library, so it was pulling the pc down and it was taking forever to use the computer.
I am unable to use any of the software to transfer everything from my iPod to the iTunes library because of the problem with iTunes crashing when I connect the iPod, so this isn't a solution at this time.
Someone, please help!
HP Windows XP Using DSL for internet access

I suspect a hardware problem. But do the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Resore the iPid to factoery defaults/new iPod.
In the latter part of you post, I thin you ar sayng that you do not have a syning computer and the music is not on the computer. If so, do the following so you will not lose anthing (or very little) when you restore.
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Best iPod to PC
- Connect the iPod to the computer and right click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Backup. This will make a backup so you can restore to the backup

ITunes crashes when connecting iPad or iPhone

iTunes crashes when i connect iPad or iPhone. Running OSX 10.9.3 and the most up to date iTunes version?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Itunes crashes when trying to sync Contacts

My itunes crashes when it tries to sync contacts with Outlook. I cannot even select the Contacts tab to change the settings. When I click the Contacts tab, itunes crashes. Has anyone experienced this problem?

I'm experiencing the same problem.
A temporary fix is to open iTunes (without the iPod cabled into the computer.) Go to "Edit Preferences," then "Devices," and check the block that says "Disable automatic syncing..."
Then, attach the iPod USB cable. The iPod settings will all show up, but the iPod won't sync, and iTunes won't crash. You can then uncheck the block under the Contacts tab that says "Sync Contacts." (iTunes will ask you whether you want to save the existing contacts.)
Go back and uncheck the Disable automatic sync command. Tell iTunes to sync the iPod, and there shouldn't be an iTunes crash.
Admittedly, this is a bandaid until something better shows up. My suspicion is that it's a problem that originates with Outlook, and not iTunes.
