ITunes freezes the computer before it comes up, so I have to pull the plug

I've tried everything I can think of-checking the system, uninstalling it then reinstalling it, but nothing seems to work. It just freezes the whole computer to the point where I can't even use Control Alt Delete to get out of it. If anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Oh, and I have and XP if that helps.

HT3819 i originally synced my ipad to itunes on my computer before I found out about home sharing. Since I set up home sharing, can I remove the synced library? It seems to be taking up space

i originally synced my ipad to itunes on my computer before I found out about home sharing. Since I set up home sharing, can I remove the synced library? It seems to be taking up space and I'd like to free it up.

I don't think I have made myself clear... I have recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5 so everything was set up to sync with no problems at all. I transferred everything across to my new device by iCloud and everything appears as it was on my old device including on the face of it my music library. However, I cannot play all of the songs in fact the majority! When at home I can access the entire library via home sharing but that is no use away from the house. I never had this problem with iPhone 4 and although I am automatically syncing the device to iTunes it is not working. If I try to play songs via the device it skips until it finds a song that cAn be played and if I try and play the device via the laptop/iTunes an ! Type signal appears and I cannot play the song!
Any ideas re solutions would be appreciated???

My computer died and have new one. I did not sync itunes on old computer before it died. Will new purchases be synced when I download itunes onto new computer?

If not, what to do?

Hello Nahuali
The music will be there once you sign in with your Apple ID that used for purchases. Check out the article below to know the steps on how to make that happen.

Um, how about plugging it into your computer?

I have an IPhone 5, and of course I have used ITunes. My Computer has been completely destroyed, so I have to Purchase a new one. How can I transfer my music from my iPhone to my New PC?

The way I do it is I hook to my windows computer, it will pop up iTunes. I click iTunes off. The phone will show as another drive on your computer. Click it open then migrate to the photos folder from the iPhone.
Then select all, cut then right click on your pictures folder on your computer or make a new folder on your desk top like I do and right click on new folder and select paste.
Photos will be gone. Just remember to turn off the iPhone sync in your photos folder on the phone or they will come back
Good Luck

I am having this problem. At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2. I am not sure why this is happening.
My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
The problem mainly occurs with apps. I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them. The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage. It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup. With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up. The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete. This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.

Both itunes and my computer do not recognize my ipod classic, have had this before and reinstalled the device driver when asked to do so. However now it doesn't, how do i get this done?

Neither Itunes nor my computer recognize my Ipod classic. Have had this once before and when asked to reinstall device driver, did that and problem solved. However now I do not get this message, so don't know how to reinstall.

Try Turning off the Windows Firewall on your PC.

ITunes freezes my computer when i sync with my iPod

updated to new iTunes because my computer said there was a conflict with my burning software. Was prompted to reinstall iTunes. so I did and install went fine untill i try to sync with my iPod. It freezes iTunes and my whole computer . I have XP pro, Nero7 Ultra edition and A 40GB PHOTO iPod. Iwould really love any help with this matter. Thanks to any who can help

Windows may have assigned a drive letter to your iPod that is conflicting with another device. With the exception of your iPod, keyboard and mouse, disconnect all other USB devices including printers, thumb drives, external hard drives, scanners, USB modems etc. and change the drive letter on your iPod. Try M or P or Z.

HT203128 new version of iTunes freezes my computer!

Every time I open up the new version of iTunes, my computer freezes the entire time the app is open. How can I fix that?

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 and start typing the name.
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.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

ITunes freezes the moment its started.

For the past few weeks I haven't been able to use the latest version of itunes on my computer. Sometimes the program doesn't open up, sometimes it opens up and crashes immediately, and sometimes it it'll freeze, save for an animated blue circle that pops up. Closing out of iTunes through the task bar winds up taking several minutes, if it'll close out at all. I've tried repairing the installation, performing a regular uninstall, and performing a complete uninstall of iTunes and its related programs. The problem persists whether I've got my iphone connected to it or not.
My desktop more than meets the minimum requirements to run iTunes: it runs windows 8, has 4 gigs of ram, over 50 gigs of free hard drive space, and a 2.4 gig dual processor.

ITunes Freezes Whole Computer

Whenever I play a video in iTunes it will freeze up to 2 times when I watch a 20 minute tv show and when it freezes, it freezes the entire computer for a short time. Have you guys encountered this problem? If so, how do you fix it?

Christoph,
Thank you for your suggestion. I gave it a try. Unfortunately, the problem still remains exactly as before -- exporting to iTunes gets started, and about two-thirds of the way through the "creating mixdown" phase everything freezes. Any other suggestion? I'm not a particularly sophisticated Mac user, so even something obvious I would likely not have tried.

ITunes Freezes my computer

Every time I open iTunes my whole computer freezes, and the only way I can get my computer back to normal is to hold the power button until it turns off.
I have tried deleting all iTunes files and reinstalling, but the problem continues.
Any ideas?

Whatever is wrong with the Springsteen folder now affects Bryan Adams and Buddy Holly. However, it has not moved alphabetically upwards to ahem Britney Spears (I guess she really does have a natural resistance to viruses).
I'm guessing One Posts Wonders such as myself are frowned up here, but I really have no advanced computer knowledge to share...I just want to be able to use iTunes again.
