Itunes library will not close down all the way

My iTunes library will not close down all the way.  When I close the library I am unable to log back in or turn my computer off because itunes is still running although I x'd it out.

You're right, you shouldn't have to do that.
Well, you didn't say whether you've tried uninstalling & reinstalling itunes. Make sure it's installed with an admin user account. Then go into the WIndows Event Viewer and see if there are any error messages about any of the itunes processes in the installation package. That could give us a clue of what's going wrong.
Another thing that could be causing the problem is the "apple push" part of itunes, APSDaemon.exe. Read wiclee's post here about it.

  • HT1420 My Itunes Library will not open at all. the icon will spin when i click on it but it won't open

    My Itunes Library will not open at all. When I click on Itunes the icon spins and nothing will pull up. 

    Try resetting your device. Hold down the sleep and home keys, ignoring the red power down slider, and release the buttons when you see hte silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
    You won't lose any data, it's juat the apple equivalent of 'control/alt/delete' and often clears up glitches

  • I updated our iPad a week ago to 8.1 (12B410) and since then most apps will not close down with the 4 fingers swiping in.

    I updated our iPad a week ago to 8.1 (12B410) and since then most apps will not close down with the 4 fingers swiping in. The only way to close them down is to hit the middle bottom button twice then swipe upwards. Is anyone else having this problem and how do I fix it?

    This has been happening to me as well with an iPad 3 running iOS 8.1. This is what I do and it works for me. Toggle the setting for Multitasking Gestures off and then on again, Settings>General>Multitasking Gestures>Off. Then toggle it on again.
    I have to repeat the sequence from time to time as I have not found a permanent fix. I think that iOS 8 is by far the buggiest iOS release that I have used since I have owned an iOS device.

  • HP Pavilion Slimline s3707c PC will not boot up all the way

    HP Pavilion Slimline s3707c PC will not boot up all the way; gives the following message:
    Entering Setup
    <F10=setup>                          <F11=System Recovery
    <Esc=Boot Menu>                 <F9=Diagnostics>
    Tried to install recovery disc; did not respond.
    [Personal Information Removed]

    Hi wjackson95,
    When you get to the screen mentioned below, can you press the F11 key to enter the Recovery system that is on the hard drive? Alternatively, if you can press F10, you can go into the BIOS and change your boot order to put your disc drive before the hard drive so that the PC boots to your Recovery discs. NOTE: You may have to press F10 or F11 multiple times to get it at the right time.
    You might consider opening your PC to see if it has dust buildup. If your PC has overheated, it can cause it to not boot. It can also cause heat damage to the interal parts.
    For more detailed boot troubleshooting, see this HP Support document:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00899280&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3882331
    Let us know how it goes.

  • ITunes 10.4 not playing songs all the way through

    Hi all,
    I am having an issue with iTunes 64bit 10.4. My songs don't play all the way through, sometimes playing a few seconds before skipping to the next one and sometimes well into the song before skipping (without any predictable pattern even for the same song). It doesn't seem to be an issue with the transfer of music files from old computer to new computer b/c the same thing happens with new iTunes Store downloads and when I play music stored on my old computer through Home Sharing.
    Any ideas what may be causing this? Thanks for your help!
    Lenovo ideapad Y470
    Intel Core i5
    Windows 7 64 bit

    Same problem on my daughter's MacBook Pro that we bought last month. She started off with iTunes 10.4, upgraded to iTunes 10.7. Probably 64 bit, though I haven't checked. I think all the new Macs are obligatory 64 bit. The problem occurred with iT 10.4, and still happens with iT 10.7 So far, we have noticed the problem only on files transferred from an old computer. In particular, these are the m4p format, which are drm protected. It does not happen with all m4p files, though.
    1) In this incarnation, the problem is entirely reproducible. If the same track is played over, it skips to the next track at exactly the same point.
    2) The files are not corrupt. They can be played all the way through using Quicktime Player.
    Other than that, I haven't a clue.

  • Firefox wont close down all the way

    some reason when i go to close down firefox then try to bring in back an hour later keep getting the message "Firefox is already running but is not responding" and keep wondering why this is happening tryed puting the profile to read only it helped for a week then it started back up aside from that not sure why its happening usin firefox 30.0

    This was an issue with v29 that v30 was suppost to fix.
    From what I have been reading from other posts on this forum, the
    issue may be caused by the clear history settings.
    Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
    Followed by;
    Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
    Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''
    Mac; ''application name'' '''> Preferences'''
    Then '''Privacy'''.
    The button next to '''History''', select '''Use Custom Settings'''.
    At the bottom of the page, turn on '''Clear History When Firefox Closes.'''
    At the far right, press the '''Settings''' button. Turn on ONLY '''Cache''' and
    '''Form And Search History''' leaving the others off.
    This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

  • My macbook air will not turn on all the way

    When I try to turn on my AMcBook Air the screen will not get past the thinking circle

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    How to back up and restore your files
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode.* The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Post for further instructions.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.

  • Firefox won't close down all the way after watching a video. I exit out, and the sound continues. When I try to re-open firefox, I get a message about how I have to restart my computer. How do I fix this?

    Basically whenever I watch a video and I exit out of the video I have to restart my computer to get Firefox back open. If I exit out or go to a new page while the video is playing, the audio continues like nothing has happened. I've checked my task manager and it shows that Firefox is closed. When I try to re-open Firefox I get an error message that tells me Firefox is running but is unresponsive and I have to restart my computer. How do I get it to stop doing this?

    Try holding control, alt and delete down in succession and then a dialogue box will appear with windows task manager. Once open click on the Processes Tab and look for firefox.exe. Highlight this and then click end process. It should come up with a warning but just click Yes. This should then close firefox and allow you to reopen it from your desktop without shutting down your computer. Hope this helps.

  • After stalled software update, my iBook will not start up all the way.

    Here's my problem:
    I was almost done with software update when the process seemed to stall for no apparent reason. The software update status screen said my iBook was 67% done with hard drive optimization, and stayed in this state for 15-20 minutes. The computer itself was not frozen, however, so I forced quit and tried to restart the machine.
    On the restart, however, I couldn't get out of the gray screen with a status circle made up of small rectangles. I tried to force restart, but the situation did not improve.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks.
    -Aaron

    Welcome to Apple Discussions Aaron
    Force quit in the middle of an installation spells "trouble". Try starting the computer in Safe Mode. If successful, restart the computer and see if it fully boots. If not, you more than likely have directory damage that needs to be repaired. Disk Utility may be up to the task.

  • My iTunes library will not completely sync to neither my iPad nor my iPhone -- both are completely updated with the latest software. What do I have to do?? When I try to do the "autofill" option when connected to iTunes it says "no songs can be copied"

    My iTunes library will not completely sync to neither my iPad nor my iPhone -- both are completely updated with the latest software. What do I have to do?? When I try to do the "autofill" option when connected to iTunes it says "no songs can be copied"...I literally bought some of these songs yesterday on my iPhone and now I can't sync them to my iPad. What is this issue? Usually I would just have to plug either device into iTunes and everything would sync, now nothing new syncs.

    On your iPad tap Settings > Store
    Switch Books off then back on then reset your iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
