Itunes keeps on crashing / won't uninstall even with appcleaner

Help guys, please.
I have been working on this for 2 whole days now and it is very very frustrating.
My itunes keeps on crashing every time i open it.
Ive tried using disc utility, re-installing the OS, using appcleaner but none of them work.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes many many times but i still get the error message.
can someone please help?

for the proper procedure to *removing iTunes completely* click here and follow the instructions, then reinstall it using the standalone installer from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.
also try this:
quit iTunes. move the following file to the desktop: <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/library/preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
fire up iTunes (which will create a new .plist file). if it works now you can trash the plist file you moved to the desktop.
additionally, since it seems you're on OS X 10.6.3 (as per your signature), i strongly recommend you do this:
(a) download the [_*Mac OS X v10.6.4 Update (Combo)*_|http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1048]
(b) +verify disk+ and +repair permissions+ using disk utility
(c) reboot your Mac into _*safe mode*_
(d) run the combo updater while in safe mode
(e) upon normal reboot, repair permissions again
(f) run software update from the  menu and install any updates offered
please post back with results !

ITunes keeps on crashing mn my mac

Hi
itunes keeps on crashing when i try to go to the store, almost 9/10 times. and probably 1/10 times when i try to play music.
please help

Hi Lulu896,
That definitely sounds frustrating. From the information you provided, it sounds like this is happening on your iOS device. Let's see if we can troubleshoot this.
First, try signing out of your account in Settings > iTunes & App Store. Once signed out, force close the iTunes Store application and restart your device. After you have restarted, go ahead and sign back in.
If the above did not resolve your issue, refer to the following:

Thanks,

I am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password. Any advice?

i am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password. Any advice?

Try deleting the account from the iPod and try reentring all the information again. A lot of times it is easier to reenter the information rather than trying to find and correct the error.
Try Googling for how to setup the email account for your provider on an iPhone. You can try for an iPod Touch but frequently that does not exist.

I want to sync my Voice Memos but iTunes 10.5 will not let me even with the "include voice memos" checkbox selected.

I want to sync my Voice Memos but iTunes 10.5 will not let me even with the "include voice memos" checkbox selected. As well Ive deselected all the music in itunes so when I sync there will be none on my phone but itunes also ignores this request and puts purchased music back on. I do not have autofill selected. Also wondering where the backup of my iphone 4s is located on my hard disk. Any help greatly appreciated.

Sorry thats itunes 11.5

ITunes 11.1.1 won't open even after OS update. Is there something ELSE I'm missing?

After I updated my iTunes to 11.1.1, it wouldn't open. I found something on these forums that had a link to an OS update to fix the problem. Downloading and installing the OS update took nearly 24 hours, and iTunes still won't open. Is there something else I'm missing?

first of all you want to back up all music files before you uninstall itunes. if mavericks wont let you uninstall itunes then right click on itunes in your applications folder, then get info, then go to the bottom and change all permissions to read and write. then close and try to uninstall and reinstall. if that doesnt work then this does :
open apps, go to utilities, open terminal and cut and paste or type in these 3 commands, hitting return after each one.
(first type) killall iTunes
(then hit return)
(then type) killall "iTunes Helper"
(then hit return)
(then type) sudo rm -rf /Applications/iTunes.app/
(and hit return)
after the last one you will be warned and asked to enter your password. do it.
once completed you will see on your itunes icon with a ? shadow inside it.
drag it off the dock and it goes poof.
then download itunes from apple.
if they wont let you download 11.1.5 itunes then use 10.7 Download it from Apple here.
and then install and upgrade to 11.1.5 from there. this is the method i used when my itunes just bounced after installing mavericks. it takes only minutes and your itunes will be as right as rain. enjoy.

ITunes download said I needed to uninstall first. Followed instructions on how to uninstall. Everything worked except for iTunes itself and it won't uninstall but won't install either. Help!

I followed the instructions for the uninstall as found on the website, but all of the software except for iTunes uninstalled successfully. Now it won't uninstall and the updated version won't instal either and I have no idea what to do. I'm very frustrated at this point as I've tried everything on the support website.

Perfect, thanks.
"The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330."
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Ipod Touch 5G- WiFi is very slow or won't work, even with 3 bars and stood next to the hub. Is there a problem with iOS 6.0.1? Any one know a way to fix it?

Even with 3 signal bars on a 11mb/s connection. It takes more then 3 mintues to load Google fully!
It works fine loading one page then goes back to being slow or no excitant. It seems to start working again after using speed test.
At first i thought it was the case but after removing it there was no difference
I have tried every thing i could think like:
1. Turing it off and on again
2. A complete restore and backup. (Done this about 3 times)
I'm not sure if the new iOS 6.0.1 up date has caused this as it seemed to work fine for about a week after.
Any help would be appreciated!

I have same problem:
I saw another topic on this but it was a couple of months old. Last month I purchased a ipod touch 5g. It runs great except the speedtest tops out at about .3 mbps down and 5 mbps up. I don't understand what is going on. All my other wifi: Macs, ipod touch 4, ipad 2 & 3, etc work fine and get great speed of 9-15 mbps down and 5 mbps up. I can barely watch an Amazon video. Sometimes it goes fast but that is few and far between. I have tried resetting the network on it. I adusted my router for all the recomendations by Apple.
It was suggested to remove the security on the router just to test it. I did that but it made no difference. This happens whether I'm close (10' or less) or farther away. Is there something I'm missing or do I need to return it?
I keep seeing something about iOS 6.0.2 but my iPod Touch says I'm up to date at 6.0.1
thanks,
Bryce

ACI, 2 BD´s and 2 EPGs in L2 mode won´t talk even with contract supplied

Hi experts
I tried to make a L2 connection between 2 EPG in different BD, both BD are in L2 mode and in the same Private network, I saw in the sniffer that the traffic was send between the EPG ( hosts)  but the "ping" between the hosts did not got answered. we had a contract between the EPG´s that was allow any in both directions.
the connection works between the 2 host  with the 2 EPG´s in the same BD with the same any contract.
is it intended that 2 BDS won´t let 2 EPG´s talk in L2 mode ( Floodmode ) ?.
And I read that the L2 external is not a separate BD but 2 EPG´s in a " L2 construct"  with a contract between and the AEP stuff to get physical to work
/Ola

Just to understand, you created two BDs in flood and L2 mode and two EPGs. The two hosts are using the same subnet/address space to talk to each other and you have a contract in between the two EPGs yet the communication is not working.
When you put the two EPGs in the same BD it works? correct?
Its a very interesting question, but there is something you must remember about ACI. The BD is the flood/forwarding boundary. Since you are using two different flood domains and no routing (unicast off and no subnet/SVI on the BD), ARPs and general data flood/packets will not traverse the flood domains, even with a contract.
What other questions do you have? Thanks for using Support Forums, hope that helps!

My MacBook pro won't click even with an external mouse... What do I do?

On my MacBook pro I can move the mouse pointer around with the trackpad, but I can't click or tap to click. The same is true even with an external usb mouse. Can move but no click.

The question is, what model macbook do you have, year, and OS.
Some signifigant OS upgrades from older machines have encountered the no-click occurance that you mention.
Further information is required on your model and OS you both CAME from and are currently ON.

ITunes on Windows 7 won't work even after reinstall.

I've got a friends Windows 7 PC here.
iTunes has gone AWOL. It keeps asking for permission to makes changes and then won't start but the process is running in task manager (and the icon has that blue and yellow shield indicating it requires elevated priviliges).
I couldn't use the built in uninstaller as it just sits there doing nothing when I open it saying "preparing to uninstall" or something, so I used Revo Uninstaller to uninstall it and any other Apple software I could see on the computer.
And then downloaded and reinstalled it. Exact same problem. Asks for permission to make changes and
Someone suggested disabling "Apple Push" in MSCONFIG but that hasn't made any difference either. Apparently that has to do with a process called APSDaemon.exe
Any suggestions? I really don't want to have to backup his whole computer and reinstall Windows and everything else for him from scratch.

Same problem here.
I am at witts end. I have uninstalled EVERYTHING labeled APPLE on my pc and restarted and reinstalled and I have the exact same problems.
*Double Click* to open iTunes. *Wait* ... Nothing Happens. *Open* Task Manager. Itunes.exe *32 is running under Processes.
Nothing is visible. Most of the time I can't even end the itunes process. I have to open up the comand prompt and type TASKKILL /IM /itunes.exe just to close it.
Is a windows reboot the only option? I have followed all of those links the support team keeps posting and to no avail.

How do I uninstall Firefox?--it won't uninstall, even though I click on Uninstall.

Firefox keeps crashing, and I keep sending reports, asking for help with this problem, but I get nothing! I want Firefox off my computer, but when I try to Uninstall, nothing happens. I've even tried to download the latest version, but all I get is a sign-up for the newsletter--wow, could this site be more incompetent????

I have not heard of any access code being required...
Try using the helper.exe file. Open the following folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall
Then double-click helper.exe to run it normally. If you get the same error, cancel out and try this:
Right-click helper.exe and choose "Run as administrator"
Can you get it to run?

ITunes 10.2.2 won't run, even after reinstalling it and the latest Snow Leopart update... what can I do?

Hello,
I'm using a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.6.7. I've just updated iTunes to the latest version 10.2.2 but it keeps quitting unexpectedly upon opening it. I've tried deleting the Genius information, reinstalling it, as well as even reinstalling the latest Snow Leopard update but nothing seems to work. What can I do?
Thanks in advance for any help, and let me know if there are any questions.

sorry i get this error:

ITunes keeps hanging / crashing

I'm getting the spinning colored ball at random moments. Usually when trying to play/pause/skip, but sometimes out of nowhere. Frequent crashes as well. What's the best way to trouble shoot this? Do I need to reinstall the app? I'm running iTunes 10.7, the most recent version.
Thanks.

That particular file doesn't exist (as you imply) or the Library doesn't exist (because Apple has hidden it from you)?
