ITunes keeps opening after I close it?

This is after I downloaded iOS5. Apparently, it has to do with Dashboard Widgets, but I'm a Vista user, and I have no dashboard. I turned off 'sync with this iPod over wi-fi', and I also turned off 'Open iTunes when this iPod is connected". It's still opening. I'm usre lots of other people have this problem too.
Help?

ITunes keeps opening after I close it, how do I get it to stop?

I've tried unplugging peripherals, disabling applets, changing msconfig, disabling auto-sync when iPod is plugged in.
Nothing works to get it to stop I found and it's annoying. The only way I can get it to stop is to force the shut down by ending the process in the task manager.
My system runs off of Windows 7 64-bit

ITunes keeps opening and iMac wont sleep...help!!!

My iTunes keeps opening after I close it and my computer will not sleep. I have an iMac 24" with Snow Leopard and everything is up to date as of 3/26/12. Does anyone have a solution?

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

If it is doing it while your device is plugged in, it is because it is set to automatically sync. Please go to: Preferences>Devices, and select the option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically." Also, I hate to be "that guy", but you spelt extremely wrong. Just a pro tip.

ITunes keeps opening up, even after I close it?!?

Anyone else experiencing this? Jeeze, it is getting annoying. I close it and in about 3-4 minutes, it opens again.
I'm on a new PowerBook G4.

I have the EXACT same issue. I'm on a G5 PowerMac. It's not happening on my new Powerbook (G4) but i didn't install the latest OS update on my powerbook because it's giving me issues on my G5 (ichat doesn't work and iTunes keeps opening itself). I think it has something to do with the update that's just my guess.

I can not get itunes to open after I have downloaded it and closed it and tried to get bck into it

I can't get itunes to open after i download it. I close it to come back to it and it won't open or anything like it wasn't downloaded at all. Help please

The file that I'm have issues with in itunes is the file called iTunes Libary.itl.
So just to get itunes to open I had to delete that file and then sync all of my music back into itunesday, is there anyway so I do not have to keep doing that?

ITunes keeps opening automatically

I've been gone for the past 2 weeks on Christmas vacation
I came home yesterday, turned on my mac, and iTunes keeps opening by itself randomly.
It was fine before I left.
It's so annoying!
Any help?

Hello--Forgive the delay but I was away for a while after posting...Nothing seems to trigger the problem. I open iTunes, listen, close it. And then it starts re-opening. Every time I quit, it re-opens within seconds. (I have not noticed anything like another app being open that triggers it.) I hope this is helpful.

ITunes keeps opening by itself

iTunes when I click on the folder with the files it automatically opens iTunes. Even when I do a right click and then properties on the iTunes folder it automatically opens iTunes. If I close it but have the properties window still open it will start iTunes again. It gets annoying as anything that if I do anything with the iTunes folder it automatically opens iTunes. I am not trying to play a file I may just left click it once to highlight it or right click to get it's properties and iTunes starts. As long as the folder is highlighted or properties window is open iTunes will keep starting after I close the program. It will only stop restarting when I leave the iTunes folder completely.

yes, "iTunes" and "iTunes Artwork".
Do you think they are the culprit(s)? I'll put them aside and see what happens.
I have another User on the iMac but I don't know if the problems happens there.
thanks for the tip

ITuns keeps opening itself

Hi guys!
my problem is just as the subject says!
Itunes keeps opening itself
I tried everything but can't get around this. NOTE: didn't have ituneshelpper to open at login in the first place.
First i tried deleting itunes preference files - didn't work
Tried removing every app i could think of that could be interfering with iTunes - didn't work
Tried to trash ituneshelpper app from itunes package contents - nothing changed
At this time i think i had itunes 10.7 installed for a while i.e. i think it wasn't since upgrading that this problem began
then i tried uninstalling iTunes and do a fresh install - kept opening itself at login and periodically if i closed it
tired removing itunes preference files again to no success
tried to remove itunes helper at this time because it appeared at login items - no luck! even tough i removed it from login items several times it kept appearing there and even at exhaust (a login items app) all this after trashed the itunesHelper from itunes package contents again!!
At this time decided to re-install Lion again form HD recovery drive!
After this iTunes stopped opening at login only to find that i had to install the latest version (10.7) because the library was created by a newer version and as such it wouldn't open!!
after updating iTunes it started all over again!!!
And now for a little side problem - might mouse center and side buttons stopped working as well as secondary button!!! can't get around that also!!!
Help, please!!!
i'm running lion 10.7.5
Sorry fort the long post and thanks!!!

Hi,
I bought a new core i5 macbook pro a couple of days ago and started getting this problem about 2 hours ago and didn't know what was happening. Everything was disabled, including taking the battery from the remote out, yet itunes was still starting up.
I just found something but not sure if it's the cause of the problem. My audio cable was not connected properly and when i moved it, itunes would start up again, and kept moving it and kept starting up, and while open, i would move it again and it would play songs. I disconnected it and plugged it back in, tried moving it and it would not start itunes. I think this has to do with the port supporting the apple earphones with remote on them. Lets hope this fixes it and if so, hope it helps others.

ITunes keeps opening?

Only recently my iTunes keeps opening itself. I haven't done much to provoke this and I don't know what i've done wrong, if anything.
I tried deleting the .plist files but that does nothing. When ever I start my computer, it opens, when I go to exit it, it opens itself again, this happens over and over until I deleted some files in the iTunes.app, now it opens and closes itself constantly
EDIT: I restored a few items, I deleted 'versions' folder in the .app and that's why it was doing that. But I have the same problem I started out with,
Whenever I exit it, it keeps starting itself up. In activity monitor, iTunes Helper and iTunes are open. I tried force quitting the helper, then iTunes, nothing worked.
Any help?

angie119, Try going to system preferences>users/groups>login items, if iTunes helper is there try highlighting it and then click the minus button. Hope this helps.

reboot your computer. open your task manager to the processes tab. now try to launch itunes again.
b if you see an itunes.exe appear there, and persist in your task manager, try

Cant get itunes to open after update. have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times

Cannot get itunes to open after updating. Have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times asper itunes instructions.

Okay. That's got the most common (current) possibility ruled out.
There's a lot of stuff that might be on the table still, though.
