Itunes keeps crashing everytime I start it up

Please help everytime I try to open my itunes it instantly crashes. I have tried restarting my computer and uninstalling then reinstalling it back in and it just keeps crashing. Please help!

I have had the same kind of problem - Itunes (ver 10.5.1.42) crashed on startup. I have had to restart Itunes several times before it would work - then it would be fine until closed and reopened - then the crash on startup would recur. I tried uninstalling ICloud. Maybe a coincidence, but Itunes doesn't crash for me on startup anymore.

The ITunes store crashes everytime i start it up

Everytime i want to open the ITunes store, it immediately crashes. It has been doing it ever since i have downgraded ITunes to ITunes 10, i know probably the eazyest option is up upgrade again to ITunes 11 but to be honest, i hate the new layout of ITunes 11 so that is why i downgraded to 10.
If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jake

ITunes keeps crashing when I start it!

Help! I click iTunes and the icon bounces. Once it stops bouncing, nothing comes up. There's no light under the icon saying it's open either. When I go to force quit, it gives me the option of quitting iTunes, but again, it's not like the iTunes window came up in the first place. I'll try clicking the icon again and when I do I get a window that says 'iTunes quit unexpectedly'. I've tried restarting my computer and uninstalling then reinstalling again. Nothing is working.

It is possible that your iTunes Library has become corrupted. Try starting up iTunes without using that library by holding down the option key as you start iTunes from the Dock. It should ask you which library you want to use. Have it create a new library. Does iTunes launch then?
Best of luck.

hi cengl!
let's try heading to the itunes and ipod software download pages and downloading the update from there:
iTunes 6.0.1.3 Installer
Ipod Updater Installer
i notice that you're running McAfee. if you run into an odd problem where you can't see the download controls (there's a blank blue box on the itunes download page, for example), try:
iTunes download button isn't visible on the Download webpage
keep us posted.

HT1349 My iTunes keeps crashing every single time I open a Windows PC or Laptop and the "Matching with the itunes store" starts. It's driving me nuts because I can't sync to my iphones or my ipad.

My iTunes keeps crashing every single time I open the software on any of my PCs and laptops. Once the Itunes match features starts it's ony a matter of a minute or two before the software crashes. I have tons of new songs that I want to sync to my ipod, ipad and iphones but can't get it accomplished. Any suggestions??

Numbers keeps crashing everytime when i start working on a worksheet

Since a few days Numbers keeps crashing when i start to work on a worksheet. And it doesn't matter if it's a template or a empty screen. I keep sending the reports to Cupertino.

I am also experiencing this problem since yesterday on two computers. I know exactly what caused the problem to start happening, because I replicated it on the second computer. Now I have to figure out how to fix it.
For the record, in case the iWork engineering team is watching:
1. I opened a Numbers document from iCloud.
2. I attempted to Duplicate that document by pressing Shift-Command-S.
3. The progress bar dialog appeared saying that it was duplicating the document, but the progress bar just got stuck. After an hour it was still there. Numbers had obviously hung.
4. I force-quit Numbers by option-control-clicking on its icon in the Dock.
5. Ever since, Numbers crashes on startup with the following message in the crash log:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[SFUDateFormat decimalPlaces]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x10014020'
6. I deleted all Numbers preference files from the Preferences folder. It didn't help.
7. I turned off Document & Data syncing in iCloud. It didn't help.
8. Opening the same document on another machine and repeating above caused the exact same thing to happen. It appears that there was some corruption about that document that caused Duplicate to fail. Immediately previously to this problem, I had Duplicated several other documents and saved them successfully.
The problem with Numbers is isolated to the user account I was using when I force quit the application. Numbers continues to work fine on other user accounts on the same machine.
Now I'm off to try a few solutions to get Numbers working again.

My iTunes keeps crashing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, including recreating the entire database, and it is still doing it. I recently upgraded to 10.5. Any ideas?

My iTunes keeps crashing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, including recreating the entire database, and it is still doing it. I recently upgraded to 10.5. Any ideas? I am running Windows 7 on a new, decent, laptop. The music is on the laptop's hard drive. There is plenty of hard drive space left.
iTunes starts fine, and I can do stuff, then within a minute or two or three it gives me an error message pop-up.

The error message says:

I've chosen both items, neither does anything but close the program. This problem is new with iTunes 10.5; I did not have it before.

My i tunes crashes everytime I start it and it tries to download podcasts

my i tunes crashes everytime I start it and it tries to download podcasts

Hi there sshep13,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like iTunes is quitting unexpectedly upon launch on your MacBook. Try launching iTunes in Safe Mode and then removing third-party plug-ins, if the issue is resolved.

IPhoto 08 keeps crashing everytime I try to edit a photo or adjust effects!

Im new to the Mac osx and just started using the iphoto aaplication. It keeps crashing everytime I try to adjust effects or edit a photo, sometimes even when iI do nothing. When I open it again it opens with same photo that i was editing previously.
The console log shows this message
iPhoto[575] Crashed during previous starup . proceeding carefully
I tried deleting the .plist file but didnt work.
Please help.Its really frustrating.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If iPhoto works OK in the other account like Terence suggested you try it may be a preference file other than iPhoto's that's causing the issue. That can be verified as follows:
Trouble Shooting Preferences in Leopard
1 - Create a folder titled "Preferences A" on the Desktop.
2 - Open the working Preferences folder, HD/Users/your_name/Library/Preferences, and move the contents to the Preferences A folder on the Desktop.
3 - Make a duplicate copy of the Preferences A folder on the Desktop as a precautionary backup.
4 - With the working Preferences folder empty run the application again and determine if the problems is fixed.
NOTE: you may have to drag the contents of the working folder to the trash and empty if moving the contents to the A folder only copies them instead of moving.
5 - If the problem is fixed:
A - open the working Preferences folder (HD/Users/your_name/Library/Preferences).
B - Open the Preferences A folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Preferences folder.
C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here.
6 - If the problem is NOT fixed, empty the working Preferencess folder and move the contents of the Preferences folder on the desktop back into it.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

ITunes keeps crashing on startup (yes, 10.5.3 too.)

Hi all,
Today I was minding my own business, doing nothin' special and iTunes 10.6.1 started to crash on me. It starts up, after about 10 seconds it crashes and the (by now very familiar) Apple crash report is being generated.
Reinstalling, starting in safe mode (alt-cmd-click), removing the .plist files in ~/Library/preferences, deleting the iTunes Library, Disk Utility repairing permissions - it all did not help. What's more, using another account or downgrading to 10.5.3 did not help at all - iTunes keeps crashing after about 10 seconds.
I'm running out of options here. A clean install of Lion sounds tempting...
Cheers!
Ferenc

Well, turns out with the original dimms in place everythings goes swimmingly.
Maybe the 4GB Corsair dimms are at fault - I ignored that possibility because they're covered with 10 years warranty so I assume the failure rate would be very low.
Still, AHT immediately reports error 4MEM/4/40000000: 0x8495a418.
