Itunes.exe process will not end

Hi all!
I love the ITunes interface, but I'm running into problems with the few CD's that ITunes won't import. Once the import "freezes" and won't continue, I try to end ITunes so I can re-open it and start again. The program appears to vanish, but the "itunes.exe" process is still running when I open my task manager/process manager. I am unable to end this process--any ideas on how to do it short of pulling my power cord and restarting?

Did you see this thread? I'm not suggesting it is the same problem, just that such issues may be more complicated.

I don't think there's been an update to Encore CS6. I have it temporarily uninstalled from my laptop, so can't confirm what the CS6 build number is. In any event, what version/build are you running? Do you see the same problem with Premiere?
The original version of this problem showed the same issue with Pr and EN. Others did not report both.

Firefox will not start and Firefox.exe process will not end!

Good evening,
I am typing this on Internet Explorer, and Google Chrome seems to refuse to install. I have been experiencing considerable trouble with launching FF. Whenever I double-click the icon, FF does not launch. There are no error mesages, the cursor just turns to an hourglass and then back to the pointer. When I open the task manager, there is always one Firefox.exe process open that will not close no matter how many times I press the "End Process" button. This is maddening. Can I do anything to get FF up and running again? I have restarted my computer countless times. I ran a scan with Norton Antivirus and whatever it detected obviously wasn't what is causing this issue. Please try and assist me, this is outrageous.
Thank you,

Firefox.exe *32 will not end process, have to reboot PC

I've been using FF for years and love it. On my work PC, FF just started this funkyness.
The issue:
I start FF and after a few seconds, I notice it stops responding, I go to "Win Task manager", see the firefox.exe *32, try to end task but it will not, nothing happens.
I try to start a new instance of FF, gives error "Firefox is already running but is not responding" I click close , then another error "your firefox profile cannot be loaded...."
The only way to end the FF task is to reboot PC, then when I try again it does the same thing.
Things I've tried with no luck:
-Updated java
-went in the appsdata/......Mozilla/profiles / removed read only attribute (but I noticed when I go back, its checked again...??)
-complete FF un-install, cleaned registry of all Mozilla FF content, deleted all FF folders, re-installed as admin
-run FF in safe mode
-work network connection or private SSH connection to home has same prob
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

Firefox audio will loose device on a setting change. Process will not end on exit.

I will be listening to music on Firefox and then decide to change a bass enhancement setting via Windows sound.
The sound will cut out and required a full Firefox restart to come back. However, when I exit Firefox the process doesn't close and I have to end it manually via task manager.

My itunes.exe file will not load itunes...not getting any error message

Need help with troubleshooting this problem. Looked at forum, have tried to repair itunes with the update feature.
Quiktime will load. Anyone have any suggestions?

hmmmmmm.
okay, your call if you're happy with your 4.x ... but it's also worth checking on this possibility with the itunes 6.0.x with your set of symptoms. (NIS 2005 was the overwhelmingly likely suspect, but there are a few other possibilities to check on.)
iTunes for Windows doesn't open after upgrading
... persisting with this, because sometimes an itunes 6.0.x error-message-free launch failure can be a bit of a barometer of other problems on a PC. (after the Norton thing and this thing, the most likely suspects are malware infections ... so i'm a wee bit worried for your PC.)

Firefox process will not end once i close the application.,i have to manually end it,so that i can run the application again.

Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== after 2 weeks of installing ==

HT1925 After failed update of itunes yesterday, now will not run with error message "MSVCR80.dll can't be found, APSDaemon.exe not running". Windows 7.

After failed update of itunes yesterday, now will not run with error message "MSVCR80.dll not found" APSDaemon.exe will not run. itunes will not now run.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

ITunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found itunes will install but wont run!!!!!!!!

I updated itunes and it wont work. i unistalled all apple apps, about 5 to 10 times. i get this message on my HP 530,32 bit windows vista. At the top in the error window it says
*iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found* Then under that in the error box it says:
*The procedure entry point*
*QTCF_CFUniCharGetUnicodePropertyDataForPlane could not be located in the dynamic link library QTCF.dll.*
What do i DO PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!

I found the qtcf.dll file in the sys32 moved it to the desktop tried iTunes and still same error message as above.
Okay ... sometimes there can be multiple copies of them lurking about on a PC.
Try heading into Computer, and typing QTCF.dll in your Search field. When Vista tells you it can't find the file, click "advanced" and tick the "Search hidden, non-indexed and system files (might be slow)" and then start another search.
This search *will indeed be slow.* Wait until the green progress bar up at the top of the screen has completely vanished, otherwise you might accidentally stop the search too soon.
What copies of QTCF.dll do you find, and where are their file locations? (The default location on a 32-bit Vista PC is in C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\QTCF.dll)

Error messages - DDE Server Windows itunes.exe - Entry point Not found and iTunesHelper.exe - The procedure entry point asl_add_log_file could not be located in the dynamic link Library ASL.dll

Hi
I have tried to research these problems I am getting, but have not been able to resolve them.
1st is the above DDE Server Windows iTunes.exe - entry point not found.
This only occurs when I try to start iTunes.
if I click ok , several times, iTunes will start but slowly.
If at any time I have to reboot my computer I get
iTunesHelper.exe - the procedure entry point asl_add_log_file could not be located in the dynamic link library ASL.dll
if I click 3 times OK it goes away.
To this end I have uninstalled iTunes and rebooted my machine then gone to iTunes web site and downloaded the latest version.
Installing it but still get the same errors on reboot and trying to run iTunes
Anyone any ideas please.
I have a self build PC it has an Intel core 2 quad Q6000 @ 2.40GHz

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)
Re: I recently updated to vista service pack 2 and I updated to itunes 10.2.1 and ever

I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1. It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

I purchased a movie on iTunes, but it will not play on my Apple TV1. It says the Apple TV is not authorized to play this content.

Annoying isn't it.
This seems to have started at the end of October and may be some kind of 'authorisation expiry' on the original unit that needs updating.
Solution include:
Purchase something on the AppleTV1 itself with DRM (a free TV Show episode might be an idea if yiou can find one).
Remove the connection to itunes by removing the iTunes library from AppleTV's Computers>Settings menu, then add it back again.
Remember this will wipe synced content from the AppleTV if AppleTV1 is syncing (My Movies/TV Shows etc) as opposed to streaming (My Shared Movies etc) from that itunes library. In theory direct purchases on AppleTV that have never transferred to itunes might survive the 'wipe for a clean slate for a new sync' process that happens when you remove a sync library but don't risk it and right click on the AppleTV Device in itunes, choose Transfer Purchases if there are any prior to resetting the AppleTV Computers entry and readding the library. If AppleTV is streaming only it's very quick to remove the libarry and re-add it as there's nothing to sync when you re-establish the connection - it works I've done it. Purchasing a protected music video on my other AppleTV1 which was synced also worked.
Good luck

I recently created an account and bought a movie. But any time I press "Play" iTunes freezes and will not respond at all.

Windoes 7 64bit
I recently created an account and bought a movie. But any time I press "Play" iTunes freezes and will not respond at all.
I have tried both uninstalling the software and reinstalling it, I have tried to run the software in safemode, and I have tried to change the Quicktime settings to see if that helps.
Nothing has worked. It always does the same thing, where it freezes the moment I tell it to "play".
I have tried to use my other computer instead, going through the same process and I got the exact same result where it freezes.
Therefore it has to be something to do with the software, because the computers use different graphics cards, yet it responds the same.

Hi Canon-Thought!
I have an article here for you that deals with this exact issue. You may have already completed many of the steps that this article will suggest, but look over it to see if it suggests something you haven't already tried:
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
Also, I suggest paying close attention to the list of programs that you would need to uninstall, in order, so that you can fully uninstall iTunes and all related components from your computer. If those programs and steps are not followed exactly, you may end up with issues using iTunes.
If this issue only happens with one singular movie, you may need to report that there is an issue with your purchase. We have an article for doing that, and it can be found here:
How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBookstore purchase

(If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Next, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:

Does it go through properly this time?

Itunes.exe process will not end
