ITunes has stopped working.  Windows is checking for a solution and will notify you when one becomes available.  I am running Windows 8.

When I try to access the itunes store I receive a message Itunes has stopped working and is
searching for a solution...Will notify you when one is available...I am running Windows 8.   Any suggestions?

This is the simplest fix, if you're still having a problem with it.  I had the same problem, am running Windows 8.1.  Just be sure to reboot after you copy the dll (dynamic link library) file indicated.
Copy QTMovieWin.dll from:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
Let me know if you have a problem.

    Please help.
    I can't buy anything!!!!!!

    This happened to me after the last iTunes upgrade.  The solution for my problem was to completely uninstall and reinstall my security software PC Tools Spyware Doctor with Antivirus) Just disabling it did not work.
    There are however a lot of different fixes on other old threads.

  • Itunes comes up with error message on opening "itunes has stopped working..

    Help
    i have installed itunes onto my vista laptop and it stops working when opened, it comes up with an error message "itunes has stopped working microft is checking for a solution" and then closed itunes. I have followed apples advise and unistalled and installed it a few times, removed all unecessary files etc etc.

    "itunes has stopped working microft is checking for a solution"
    Fingers crossed, your Vista problem history may give us more information on what is going on.
    Go into your Problem Reports and Solutions Control Panel, click on the Problem History, and look for iTunes problem reports that occur at the same time as those error messages. Open the problem reports. Do they all say the same thing? If so, paste the contents of a typical problem report into a reply here.

  • "iTunes has stopped working" when importing

    Fresh Windows 7 install, fresh iTunes 10 install... iTunes sees and adds songs from the "Automatically import" folder... then after restart, it starts to perform the "Determining gapless playback information" process... usually gets somewhere between 400 and 800 songs in and craps out with an "iTunes has stopped working".
    I searched on this error and found advice to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and Quicktime... that didn't help. I then removed all the songs to a different folder and started re-adding them a dozen or so folders at a time (there are several thousand folders holding about 40,000 songs, in total, so I have to do it in fairly large chunks, or it will take for-freakin-ever).
    It worked fine for a while, but at some point started with the crashing again. Every time it's a different song, stopping at a different point in the process. I've started removing the song it crashes on each time (or at least, the last song listed on the "gapless playback" line), but there are about 4000 songs in this batch, so it will take a really long time if I keep going this way.
    Any other suggestions on how to sort this out??

    Just in case anyone else is looking for a solution for this...
    In my case, I determined it to be a file or files that iTunes was adding that was corrupted or in some other way causing iTunes to choke. It appears that there was no direct correlation to the "determining gapless" process... it was something in the "Automatically add" folder that it would hit and crash on. I basically removed everything to another folder, deleted the library, then moved stuff back to "Automatically add..." a handful at a time. Not 100% sure, but I'm pretty confident that it was actually old podcast files that were giving version 10 fits.
    So if you've run into this and the other suggestions don't help, check within the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder for a "Podcasts" folder (may be two to three levels deep), and remove that...

  • ITunes has stopped working while sync photos

    I have been having problems since I updated iTunes to 10.4, it keeps crashing (itunes has stopped working) while sync photos. After uninstalling and re-installing the problem still stayed. I therefore tried sync photos a batch at a time (15 photos at a time) IT WORKED but I still cannot sync my videos. I think that the problem is that this new version of itunes cannot cope with big files and therefore it crashes. I HOPE THAT APPLE WILL SORT OUT THIS PROBLEM

    downgrade to itunes 10.3 as 10.4 broke this feature. if not, just unclick the include videos box and your sync should complete. here's hoping apple fixes this in itunes 10.5.

  • Can't get itunes.  I get the following message when I click on either the shortcut or the program.  It says ITunes has stopped working and I can either check on line for a solution and close the program or just close the program.

    When I click on the itunes shortcut or the program  I get the following message:
    ITunes has stopped working.  My two options are:  Windows can check on line for a solution to the problem or close the program. 
    It seems that my entire library is not there.  If I sync my ipod will it add it back into my library on the computer? 
    I've even tried installing again and nothing works.  Tried the "repair" and it says that ITunes is loaded but I stil get the above error when I try to open the program.
    Thanks

  • 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
