ITunes keeps on opening up

I find it annoying. I eject the ipod from iTunes, then close out the program. A few seconds later, it recognizes the iPod again and re-opens. This happens sometimes 3 or 4 times. Does this happend to anybody else? I don't mind it recognizing it when I plug the iPod in, but when I close it, it should stay closes. Is there a setting for this? THanks,
T

Ok...this is happening to me too. It just started today. Usually, after my iPod opens iTunes I can just quit iTunes and it will stay closed. Today, after a few minutes I hear my iPod click a few times and then iTunes opens again on my computer.
I just want to charge my iPod. No need for the program to be open, or for the extra stress of continuing to open my iPod hard drive.

ITunes keeps re-opening

Every time I quit iTunes at the moment, it just keeps re-opening itself...any ideas how to stop this?
cheers.

Dave,
I've noticed a similar problem, though it occurs with only one account on our iMac. I've searched the knowledge base and forums and cannot find an answer. The problem occurs with my daughter's account (a limited account), and when she logs in, iTunes opens automatically. If she closes iTunes, it stays closed, but will reopen with each log in. No other account is so affected.
There are no widgets activated on my daughter's account, nor have there even been any activated. The iTunes widget is not activated on any other user account. I removed the iTunes Helper from among the log in items. I've looked through the iTunes preferences, and cannot find anything regarding the program automtically opening on log in.
Do you, or anyone for that matter, have any other suggestions?
Regards,
Joe

ITunes keeps on opening by itself and playing music!

On my MacBook Air, iTunes randomly opens and begins playing music. No matter what I do, it keeps doing this. I have tried pausing the music (it just keeps playing a few seconds later), closing iTunes (it just opens back up). It is really annoying and frustrating. I have only had my MacBook for a year now......and it just started playing Phantom of the Opera, The Point of No Return....now I'm scared.

Hi sailormoonfreax,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Are you closing the iTunes window, (clicking on the red dot), or are you actually quitting the application?
I would suggest force quitting the application, and then removing it from your Login items for your User account.
Another scenario that could be happening is a setting in Mountain Lion that reopens previously opened windows when you shut down or restart.
The articles below will explain these settings in more detail:
Mac OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3411
Mac Basics: Set your preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2490
System Preferences controls system-wide settings ("global" settings), and is available from the Apple menu at the upper-left corner of the screen.
Click the General setting and you can choose whether or not windows re-open.
Click the Users and Groups setting to adjust your login items.

Since downloading IOS 5 Itunes keeps randomly opening up and popping up on my desktop screen, not just when I turn on computer but randomly even though I sign out of itunes. How can I stop this from happning

After installing ios5, itunes randomly opens up on my desktop on my laptop computer. Not just when I start my computer but when I'm on it. itunes just opens. I've searched settings in itunes and my desktop and don't know where to go to stop this from happening. itunes will just open. I've rebooted laptop and tried signing out of itunes and it still happens. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make this stop??

While it is clearly the wifi syncing that is causing it, the device almost never shows up in the device list, and I've already unchecked that box. I have two devices that I'd love to wifi sync, but neither show up today on the device list, despite iTunes continually popping up every 5 minutes or so. Buggy...

ITunes keeps on opening - NO iPod - (becoming annoying!)

This may not seem like a big deal, but after a few days it is becoming quite annoying.
Every time I close iTunes, it opens itself again. It will keep doing it a few times (usually 3 or 4) and then it will stop.
I DO NOT have an iPod, so it cannot be the program starting itself because it recognizes the iPod being plugged. Any ideas why this is happening and how I can solve it?
Thanks!
NOTE: The iTunes version is the latest (6.04.something) and it is the first one I install in this computer.

Anyone have any ideas on this? My iTunes started opening on its own today. I dont have any file sharing software installed and my iPod is not connected and hasnt been since the last reboot.
When I try to close it, I get an error message that some other "unknown" app is accessing the scripting interface. Is there any way some sort of virus is doing this? I havent installed any new apps for weeks.
thanks

The instructiion at 0x5de7cfe3 referenced memory at 0x00000004. The memory could not be read. I keep getting this error message, and iTunes keeps opening automatically.

I upgraded to 10.5 last weekend, and since then my iTunes keeps popping open. I get the error message above, but sometimes the first "code" is different, the last time it was 0x6473cfe3 instead. So irritating....

Try updating your QuickTime Player to the most recent version. Does that clear up the launch errors in iTunes?

ITunes keeps opening by itself and playing music.

My iTunes keeps randomly opening up by itself and playing music. When it happens, I quit the app and it stops for the day, but it will happen again randomly. Like days or weeks later. I don't know why my computer has decided to start doing this recently, but it's really getting on my nerves.

Sooo annoying. And STILL not fixed.

ITunes keeps opening MS Outlook configuration each time I try to sync...

This is ultra annoying, iTunes keeps re-opening the MS Outlook mailbox configuration wizard over and over as it tries to sync. I don't use MS Outlook at all (I have it installed but don't use it). iTunes is not configured to sync anything with Outlook (the only thing that gets sync'ed are contacts with Google, everything else is unchecked).
Any tips or suggestions?

Hi triciafrombrisbane,
If you are having an issue with the iPhone continuing to ask you to restore, I would suggest that you back up your iPhone's data and restore it as a new device. See this article for how -

Function keys malfunctioning and iTunes keeps opening

My MacBook has Lion on it and has developed the following issues:
The volume up/down and screen brightness up/down keys seem to be having an identitiy crisis and do both things at the same time i.e. when I increase the volume the screen brightness goes down and volume goes up together etc
iTunes keeps randomly opening and starts playing my music when I haven't touched anything.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anything I can do to correct this?
Thanks

check system preferences, go to accounts, log in items, see if there is an iTunes stuff there, if there is higlight it and click the - button.
for the the sleep part you can go to system preferences, energy saver, make sure wake for network is un clicked.
turn off bluetooth when not in use, the persson who lives next to has either her BT headset or mouse that wakes mine, have our stuff apart by a thin wall 2ft

ITunes keeps opening itself

I recently updated my software and I also recently started using a Shuffle with my iMac - I'm not sure which is causing the problem.
I have iTunes 6.0.2, and it keeps opening itself automatically. Not when I start up my computer, but if I have iTunes open and then quit the application, it will just open itself right back up approximately 1-2 minutes later. It doesn't do anything - doesn't access the Music Store or start playing music - it just opens itself. So annoying!
Does anyone know how to make it stop doing this? Is it possible I have it set to automatically open for some reason?
Thanks!

Coupla dumb questions:
Are you actually "quitting" iTunes by going to the iTunes Menu > Quit iTunes or by the keyboard (Command+Q)?
Or are you just clicking on the red button at the top of the program window, which actually does not quit the program. (The program is still open if you see a small rectangle symbol under the icon in the dock.)
Also check your System Preferences > CDs & DVDs and make sure you don't have iTunes set to open when you insert a blank disc, dvd or picture CD.

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??

Is anyone else having this problem?
I tried to re-install and got the following message: iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
Does this mean I have now lost everything?

I just had the same error:
R6034
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the apps support team for more info.
I went to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and did a complete removal and reinstallation of iTunes. You MUST follow the directions here exactly...it's more than just iTunes that must be removed, and it MUST be done in the order in which the support article says. I followed the exact instructions, and iTunes is back on my machine (no more C runtime error) and you do NOT lose your music...it's all in my library, as it was before.
Good luck!
