ITunes (latest version) crashes...iPod won't eject

When I connect my iPod Classic 160GB, iTunes launches but crashes immediately. I force-quit it because it won't run anyway, but then Finder won't let me eject my iPod (the iPod icon is grayed out on my desktop). In short, iTunes is unusable. Another thread cited an issue with iBooks and recommended uninstalling it by "changing the rights" (I have no idea what that means) and deleting it to fix the iTunes problem. OSX won't let me delete iBooks because "it is required by OSX). Any help would be appreciated.

Ahh, it seems that resetting the ipod fixed the problem. Carry on.

  • After a download of an update too long, my iPhone is stuck, I can not use it. I tried to restore it but iTunes (latest version) crashes.

    After a download of an update too long, I decided to cancel it and now my iPhone is stuck. I can not use it anymore.My Iphone can start but after that the apple disappears, I have a black background. I tried to restore it but iTunes (latest version) crashes. Whan can I do ??
    Thanks.

    You mean you tried to hack/jailbreak it. ONLY the carrier a phone is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    You've voided your warranty and forfeited your right to support here and from Apple.  Congratulations. You now own an iBrick. Hope it was worth it.

  • ITunes latest version crashes my 5G iPod

    I've used this stuff since you first came out with the iPod. Then iTunes. It's been really great until now. I know about the 5R's and have tried them (repeatedly).
    Problem: I open iTunes, connect my iPod, iTunes says it's updating the iPod. The UI freezes (not even refreshing) then it crashes. I purchased music from the iTunes store and I cannot even use it! That really is not fair. But, HOPE that you can repro this issue and resolve it. I'm used to having m$ stuff crash but not apple stuff. If you would like me to send you a crash dump I would be more than happy to help.

    Actually i think i wrote the wrong subject. It's itunes that crashes.
    I'm using the 60gb. It's actually been fine. It's iTunes latest version that isn't working properly.

  • Latest version of Itunes won't download latest version of ipod touch softwa

    I have a macbook from April of 2008 which has the latest version of itunes 10.10.01. I have apps that i've purchased from the itunes store (including a $20 german-english translator that i DESPERATELY need for class). I recently restored my ipod to factory settings because I was experiencing issues with it charging properly.
    Now i've had the german app for over a year before the restore and it worked just fine. But now my computer and itunes keeps telling me that the app needs the latest version of ipod touch software in order to sync the app. When I click "check for updates" on the ipod screen it claims that my ipod touch software is up to date - but lists it as 2.2.1!!
    I know that the lastest version of ipod software is MUCH later than 2.2.1 but I can't seem to convince my itunes of this. Someone help me out please! I've done everything I can think of but my itunes is up to date and i NEED the app.
    Much appreciated!!

    there could be the problem of that u didnt update to 4.0 and r at 3.1.3 and r trying to update to 4.1 u might have to take your ipod to an apple store for them to check it out

    I need the download of iTunes 5 which I found no results. If anyone has, could you kindly tell me the link? I don't want the latest version of iPod Updater, but the next one before the latest version.
    I need to solve my problem asap.

    Gabriel,
    Gonna be tough to find iTunes 5 when there's now iTunes 6. You don't want 6??
    When it comes to the iPod Updater, the version before the latest is 9-25-2005 (or something like that).
    How come you don't want the latest versions? Looks like the ones you want are not around any more.

  • My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    Here's a couple things to try:
    1. Reset the iPod by holding the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
    2. Uninstall and reinstall one of your purchased apps. Sometimes this can rectify the issue.
    3. Connect the iPod to iTunes and restore it. New system software usually resolves the issue. Make sure you sync before restoring because a restore removes the data from your iPod.
    Hope one of these works for you!

    Hello PamelaFox14,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you need to log in as the administrator to update the iTunes application properly.
    Take a look at this article named:
    Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    This section in particular:
    1. Make sure you have administrator account access
    To install iTunes or QuickTime software, you need to be logged in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure if you have administrator account access, you may find this Microsoft article helpful:
    Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?
    Otherwise, refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.
