    Same exact thing with me.  And no help from apple.  Just dropped nearly $600 and cannot get a decent working setup.
    Apple's only suggestion was to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime, and re-install... of course (the I.T. Crowd tactic).
    The crash happens only on iTunes store access.

  • I just received a refurbished replacement iphone and now while syncing I get "itunes has stopped working"...help???

    I just received a refurbished iphone the the insurance provided by a major electronics retailer.  Since i have tried to sync it to iTunes I have received "iTunes has stopped working" error.  It says it will come back with possible solutions, but never does a thing.  I have already removed and again installed iTunes, QuickTime, etc. to no success.  Not sure what my next step should be.

    This helped overcome the crash problem, but (as reported before), I still have to start iTunes in Safe Mode in order to watch any videos. This has been the case since 10.5.
    The regular mode behavior has changed a bit - instead of the progress bar moving to the end of the video, showing no video but playing the audio for about three seconds, it now leaves the progress bar where it is ... but the rest of the behavior hasn't changed.
    Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit on an HP dv8t quad-core laptop w/ 8 GB RAM, running nVidia GeForce 230M with 1 GB video RAM.
    Thanks for your prompt response to the original problem posted above. At least now I'm back where I started from before I upgraded to 10.7. Not optimal, but I've finally gotten used to doing a Ctrl-Shift-click to run iTunes.

  • "iTunes has stopped working" during every startup

    Every time I try to open iTunes, it says iTunes has stopped working. When I open it, it actually works for a good two seconds before it crashes. I've tried to play one of the songs by double-clicking one of the albums and it starts to play until it crashes one second later. I've even tried to open iTunes while my iPod 4G is plugged, and it's actually showing that it's starting to sync every single time. But of course, it's going to crash within a second. This has never happened until today. I've even tried reinstalling it with the latest version. What's up with that? How do I fix iTunes?
    I'm using Windows 8.1.

    Try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.
    If not try working through TS1717: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
    Otherwise for general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • ITunes Store access causes "iTunes has Stopped working...Windows is check..

    When accessing iTunes Store from iTunes, which has worked well for several years, it stops half-way through progress bar and then I get the "iTunes has Stopped working...Windows is checking..."..then " A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you..."
    Probably not a related problem, but also, when synching with an iPhone that I recently reset, copying just 188 tracks in selected playlists to transfer to the iPhone, the copying stops and hangs after just a few tracks, so this is unsuccessful too.
    Another iPhone worked a synch but fewer tracks to download!
    I've uninstalled and re-installed iTunes 9.2 etc - doesn't fix problem. Any help please?

    Wow, that is crazy .... but it worked! Thanks for taking the time to post that up as I would never have even dreamed of thinking that the display drivers would stop iTunes working... that *****.
    For any one else - this was Windows Vista on a Dell inspiron, went to Start menu-> Settings-> Control Panel-> Device Manager -> Display Adaptors -> right click on ATI Radeon (in my case) and then "Update driver software" and let windows search the web

  • "itunes has stopped working" after downloading album artwork??

    For years I've avoided ipod and itunes like the plague...but about 2 weeks ago I gave in. I got an ipod touch and installed itunes. Everything was fine - until this afternoon when I clicked on find album artwork in itunes. After itunes finished going through the process of finding the artwork ( 1400 of 1600 files found, 1450 of 1600 found, etc...or something like that ), i got the error message that *itunes has stopped working*. I've been searching forums all night and tried uninstalling eveything "apple" and reinstalling. Apparently this error comes up for A LOT of people ( problems like this are why I never wanted an ipod... ). None of the recommended fixes are working. I'm assuming something went wrong during artwork downloading????? Or not? I don't really care why actually, but, if itunes crashes every time i hook up my ipod, what good is it ( or the ipod )...and i don't know what to do with the ipod ( how to download apps, or add music, photos and videos ) w/o the itunes. My previous media players were all drag and drop ease.
    I'm a newbie - and i'm rally frustrated - so please be kind. Can anyone tell me - in plain terms - how to get my itunes to not "stop working" every time i hook up my ipod?? Please?
    THANKS.

    OK, so after looking everywhere for an answer - with no luck - I figured it out on my own ( don't ask me how... ). I'll tell you what I did. I bet you have the same problem. Honestly, I thought I'd be returning the **** thing, but it's fine now.
    I'd plug in my ipod ( 32gtouch, like yours ), and itunes would open. Everything was fine until it started to sync my music. Then it would freeze, give me the error message, and then shut down. I did this probably 10 times throughout the day, and always the same. Then I noticed it always froze at the same place during the sync. Soooo, I finally realized I must have a corrupt file.
    Step 1: Do as I did, but when it starts to freeze, take note of the name of the song it freezes on. That's probably the culprit .Remember it. Let the error message come up and close as always...
    Step 2: Open itunes again! Click on your ipod, and then on the music tab. Immediately un-check "Sync music" ( top of the page ) and then click "apply" ( bottom right ). DO THAT FAST...before it has a chance to sync, or it will just freeze again!
    Step 3: Go into your music library on itunes, and DLETE/REMOVE that song.
    Step 4: Close itunes.
    Step 5: Open itunes, and go again to your ipod, and click on music tab. This time, check the "sync music" box ( and apply ).
    That should fix it. If it doesn't you have more than one corrupt file. In that case, close itunes and then open it again. Follow step 1 and 2 again. Remove any songs from your library that aren't that important to you ( especially those that were from questionable sources... ). Basically, you need to figure out which song ( or songs ) are causing the problem. If you just delete them all, you'd have to add them again one at a time to avoid the problem again, and that would be a pain. So, just remove as many as you feel like ( out of 1500 songs or so, I removed a couple hundred ). I left mainly the ones that were from my actual CDs or that I had bought through Amazon ( or other legit source ). I removed most of my Limewire downloads. Most of them are probably fine, but I'll add them later one at a time to be sure...
    I still have plenty of Limewire songs on there, and they are fine, but, as you know, you do get bad files sometimes.
    Anyways, once I did this, everything is fine and works great. I even started adding album art manually, and at one point it froze again. So, I did steps 1 and 2 again, and removed the album art I last added, and then synced again, and it was fine. Usually, the album art I add is OK, but I had that one pesky photo I guess ). So, I guess the thing is after you get the majority of your music on, just add and adjust things a little at a time, and you'll always know which file is causing you problems ( hopefully no files will!! ).
    I hope this works for you. Let me know if you have any questions, and let me know if it solves your issue too!
    Peace.

  • ITunes has Stopped Working in Vista

    Browsing this forum, I see quite a few people are having trouble with the newest version of iTunes.
    Ever since I upgraded to iTunes 7.5 a few weeks ago on my 32-bit Vista Ultimate, the program will no longer run. When I try to start iTunes, I get a message saying "iTunes has stopped working. Windows can check online for a solution to the problem." Also, whenever I start up Windows, I get a similar message saying "iTunesHelper Module has stopped working."
    When I tell Windows to check online for a solution, it just gives me a page telling me there's a newer version of iTunes, but it is the newest version that I'm trying to run.
    Any thoughts?

    This solution has worked on one of my 4 computers so I can't guarantee but it might be worth a try.
    Uninstall Itunes and Quicktime. Reboot your computer
    Empty out the recycle bin
    Use Search to locate any and all files and folders that reference itunes or quick time. Of course do not touch your music folder.
    Delete all these references to itunes and quick time.
    Reboot.
    Download a standalone version of Quick time and install.
    Download Itunes (I used version 7.4.1 that I obtained from Oldapps.com.)
    Once this was done I was able to run itunes on my laptop. I did upgrade to 7.5 but I could not get my sons nano 8GB to sync so I reverted back to 7.4.1 and it works just fine.
    I have yet to get itunes working on My wifes vista laptop and it quit working on my XP desktop some time ago (I have never used it and wouldn't care except my son just bought the nano) Itunes a version prior to 7.4 was running on my sons laptop until he upgrade to 7.5 when he bought the nano, just last Friday, and 7.5 totally borked things up. Aside note is that his hard drive crashed a day later, but I don't think that had anything to do with it.
    If you read through this board you will find that itunes and windows are not getting along well at all. If you have a "new" ipod be it nano, classic or what ever I beleive you must use version 7.4 or newer. It seems to me that if Apple really wants floks to buy these things they should be sure the primary piece of software is stable and works!

  • With the last two updates and downloads of iTunes, it no longer works on my PC.  I have tried removing and re-installing and I have tried the repair offered with download.  When I open iTunes, I get notice that iTunes has stopped working.

    iTunes has stopped working on my PC with latest updates.

    Well, I guess I have to download some other software to make my apple product work. Really great stuff you guys sell. I will never buy another apple product. My Iphone, Ipod and Itunes are junk

  • I found a solution for my "iTunes has stopped working" problem

    iTunes was opening ok but would only play music; if I tried doing anything else like importing music or even navigating around it would crash with a "itunes has stopped working" message and shut down.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes twice with no luck. I searched for hours for a solution and finally figured it out.
    What the problem was is a corrupt user profile. I determined this by creating a new user account on my computer, opening itunes under this new account, and doing the things that would make it crash under my original account.
    Since it worked fine under my new account, I had to then transfer all of my user profile info from my previous account to my new one. Which is kind of a pain in the butt but not too bad.
    There are instructions for doing this on the Microsoft site. One thing to make sure if that you setup the new account as an admin (the way I did it, per the instructions, was to setup a third account that transferred the files from the original to the new account) and to share all files under the user profile with "Everyone" so that they can be copied and transferred. I did have trouble trying to copy all of the files at once and paste. It didn't work. So I ended up copying individual folders and pasting them into the new account. You only need to do this with the folders that contain your individual data, e.g. My Music, My Pictures, etc. The way I figured out which folders and files to transfer was trying to open them under the new account. If they wouldn't open, they didn't need to be transferred. Anyway, rely on Microsoft instructions for this, I'm not a computer wiz myself.
    Hope this helps someone because it took me a couple of days to figure it out!

    Adobe CS4 products were never meant to be transferred. It breaks the licensing and you get this error.
    There is a License Recovery tool for the Mac, download that from:
    Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
    For OSX 10.7 and above you can try fixing it using the Python Script and Terminal app. If you succeed, this will save you from Plan B, reinstalling Photoshop and illustrator plus all the updates.
    So basically
    Open Terminal
    Type sudo and leave a space
    Then download and unpack the LicenseRecovery111 dmg.
    Inside you will find the License Recovery folder and inside that you will see "LicenseRecover.py
    Drag LicenseRecover.py into the Terminal Window and press "enter"   You should see this:
    Enter your admin password. Ignore the fact that the cursor does not move and press Enter again.
    Follow the instructions, and when done, you can quit the Terminal.
    It should then be repaired. Try starting your programs.

  • ITunes has stopped working message after having it open for one minute.

    It's fully updated to iOS 5 and was working fine until now. Running on Windows 7 and worked flawlessly till this point. Any tips? I already uninstalled and reinstalled. Only security software I run is Microdoft Security Essesntials and that has never been an issue. At a loss here.

    I open itunes and a message comes up after a minute "itunes has stopped working". I got the update automatically to my Windows 7 64 bit pc 10.5.0.142.  After reading tons of probelms online about version 10.5
    I have decided to do nothing for now.  Seems people are putting hours into trying to fix it.  I was going to uninstall and reinstall but seems that isn;t working for to many people.
    How do we get some help from apple? 
    Anyone have any answers???  APPLE HELP please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • HT2305 when connecting to the itunes store i get a mess: (itunes has stopped working) all i can do is close the peogram. i was on the phoine with apple today over 2 hrs still cant fix it

    when connecting to the itunes store i get a mess: (itunes has stopped working) all i can do is close the peogram. i was on the phoine with apple today over 2 hrs still cant fix it. unistalled it 3x and in the proper order. reset all internet connection to default setting, turned off virus programs ect. Even the tech at apple by remote access couldnt fix it. use microsoft fix it also no good....\

    I am having the same problem now also. It happened after I updated my version. I have NEVER had this problem before as a windows user and have had iTunes for 5 years. So, I would have to say it is an Apple problem. I have not changed anything on my computer. I still have Internet Explorer and I have not even updated windows. The only thing I updated was iTunes. Now, I am not getting any response from Apple and if you call you have to pay for support. What a joke. An iPod costs $400 you would think that after paying that much you would at least get some type of help. This will now be the last time I ever by anything apple.

    You need to check to see if your QUicktime works because iTunes will not work if Quicktime does not.
    If Quicktime works normally, use this troubleshooting article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
    If QUicktime does not work:
    Have you installed any of the following:
    ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar, (possibly starcodec pack, 3ivx)
    If so uninstall them, they are bad news for QUicktime.
    Then download the version of Quickime without iTunes:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    Now Remove Quicktime using the method for Quicktime in this article (just Quicktime):
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    When you come to your C:\Windows\system32\ folder you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart you computer
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check if it starts.
    If it does you are in a position to find out if iTunes is OK.
