ITunes prevents log off
A window comes up saying "Saving iTunes library" and does not go away. It prevents me from opening iTunes and logging off. I have left it to think over night and it still tries to log off. I have to hard-restart the computer every time this happens. It occurs two-three times/week. Also, when I try to use the task manager to close iTunes, it then prevents me from logging off my computer. My tech department has wiped my computer & reinstalled iTunes and this still occurs. Help?!
Security software? That's a pretty vague question to me. I have Symantec Anti-virus if that's anything like what you're asking about.
If you're not clear on what security software is installed on the PC, check with your tech people to see what you're running. If it includes a firewall, try deleting the existing firewall rules for iTunes and then replacing them with a new rule (or rules) allowing full access to the internet. (Firewall rule interference with iTunes.exe is a known cause of the process refusing to die.)

ITunes will log off after setting visualizer
Hi there - I have the newest version of iTunes, and use it quite a bit. With the old version of iTunes I used to be able to set the visualizer and walk away from it and it would keep running through my playlists for hours at a time. Now, with the newest version I'll set it up as I always had, and it will only play a song or two before my screen saver kicks in and logs off of iTunes stopping the music - a real annoyance when I'm used to continuous music. Any suggestions? All of my setting haven't changed (security etc...)...
Cheers

Hey can somrene help me with logg on iTunes? After last update iOS 7.0.3 all my ipads stats that mine iTunes is logged off when it try to update app's.
Hey there Aslid,
It sounds like you are being prompted to sign into your Apple ID on your iPad. You can do that in the settings.
To set options for App Store, go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. You can:
View or edit your account. Tap your Apple ID, then tap View Apple ID. To change your password, tap the Apple ID field.

I can't figure out how to log off of my daughter's iTunes account that has been loaded to my PC. When I want to sync my iPhone, I get her data, not mine.
Hi, Abril_Perez17.
This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music. See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled. This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

When I try to download a free app after log in the iTunes gets cut off with a msg update security question where do I do this?? I can't download anything
If you have a credit card on file on top of your gift card then it is asking you to confirm the security code for the card, which for a Visa or MasterCard is 3 digits located on the back, or AMEX has 4 digits on the front. This happens just to ensure that you are the account holder, and would happen from time to time whether it was a free or paid app, even if you have a credit through your gift card. This doesn't mean that your credit card will be charged.

After updating when i close itunes it wont open back up until i log off and log back on or reboot
After updating to latest software when i close itunes it wont open back up until i log off and log back on or reboot. Now I have removed itunes and reinstalled it but same problem

This only started happening after I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, I don't have a clue why it does it, but if I close the screen on my laptop and open it, the screen doesn't come back on it just stays off but the power light button comes on and the WiFi signal button is on but it is red as if the wifi is turned off, is anyone else having this problem or does anyone know how to fix it? I have to manually hold down the power button everytime I close my laptop to turn it off and then back on and once it is on it works perfectly, but I don't like holding the power button down for obvious reasons. Thank you.Go back to Windows 10, seems HP do not care about releasing up to date drivers for Windows 10, this is despite the problem you report also happening during BETA Testing of Windows 10 over TWELVE MONTHS AGO! It is only now HP are bothering to advise people not to upgrade, but yet they clearly won't reply in this topic, which is more or less about your problem from many different users! http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/Windows-10-Laptop-won-t-go-into-sleep-mode/m-p/5181173#M304826 -
After having installed iT 10.5 on Windows 7 iT starts without any problems. After quitting iT however, it cannot be restarted without logging off and logging on again. Anybody have a solution/fix ?
If you are not using WIFI SYNC, there is a temporary fix:
1. Check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
2. Go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. Rename file "APSDaemon.exe' into "APSDaemon1.exe" from this location:
32bit Windows C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\

AppLocker prevents DWM.exe running at log off
Hi All,
We are testing Windows 8.1 for release at our site, and have come across an AppLocker issue with DWM.exe being denied access to run at log off - this results in a black screen whenever a users chooses to log off of a PC and nobody being able to logon again
until the PC is restarted.
Event Logs on the PC indicate this as Event ID 8004 under "Application and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\AppLocker\EXE and DLL" and specifically states that AppLocker is preventing it. DWM.exe continuously tries to run and keeps logging errors
for a period of time before giving up.
Applocker is configured as:
Executeable Rules:
DOMAIN\Domain Users - Signed by O=MICROSOFT CORPORATION, L=REDMOND, S=WASHINGTON, C=US
DOMAIN\Staff - Allow anything for staff members
DOMAIN\special.user - Allow anything for a specific user.
DOMAIN\Domain Users - C:\programdata\* (This allows AppV Packages)
DOMAIN\Domain Users - C:\Program Files (x86)\*
DOMAIN\Domain Users - All Files located in program files folder
DOMAIN\Domain Users - All files located in the Windows folder
BUILTIN\Administrators - (Default Rule) All Files
Packaged app Rules, Windows Installer Rules and Script Rules all have the default rule values enabled (Though, none of these rules are set to Enforced in the base AppLocker setup - I did find that 8.1 Modern UI apps would not function without the default
rules enabled for Packaged app Rules).
These rules appear to allow everything else to function happily, with the only error showing in the Event viewer logs being the DWM.exe issue.
I have attempted to specifically allow DWM.exe via direct file, publisher, path rules for all users as above and even NT AUTHORITY\System - all with no effect on the situation.
Has anyone else encountered this issue with AppLocker and Windows 8.1 before?
Regards,
/GlaicHi,
Could you please paste the complete Event 8004 here so we can better know what happened?
Are there any domain or OU level group policies applied? Local group policy will be overriden by higher lever gpos which might cause this issue.
Does this issue happen on a local user account?

How to sync PC with iCloud after logging off?
OK - I made the horrendous mistake of logging off the iCloud a couple of days ago. I was left with some of my contacts from the iCloud - not all. My groups were there, but no "all inclusive" iCloud Contacts. Also my iCloud calendar was gone. I still had my iPhone and iPad connected to the iCloud - no changes there.
When I went to log back on to the iCloud on my laptop, at first it started to copy my contacts - which were not complete (because of the ones in groups). I cancelled the process.
I spent almost 2 hours last night at the Apple Store Genious Bar. They really didn't know what to do as my laptop is Windows 7 - they only knew how to do things if everything was Apple. The first guy had me delete the iCloud contact folders on my laptop. Then he had me wipe my iPhone clean (why I don't know, as it had stayed with the iCloud the entire time, as did my iPad). Then he sync'd the iCloud to my iPhone, then copied to iTunes. I now have a mess on my iPhone as all the "personalized" touches I've done over the past year are gone.
Another employee came up and tried unsuccessfully to do anything. A third one came up and logged into the iCloud on my laptop (through Firefox) and made a copy of the entire Contacts. He then went into Outlook and tried to import them, but came up with a Windows error (no error number) saying it couldn't be done.
By then my laptop battery was very low, so I went home. I still everything all the way I had it before on my iPad - Yeah!
Today I did a System Restore to my laptop - all my iCloud contacts are back the way they were before I messed with things. Yeah! However, the calendar isn't back. I went into Firefox to log on to the iCloud.com - id that - everything ok there, but how do I make it sync with Outlook in my laptop? I did make a change to one of my contacts in the iCloud contacts in Outlook and clicked on the iCloud Refresh in Outlook (along the top ribbon) but this change did not show up on my iPhone or iPad.
What am I missing? How do I put the iCloud back on my laptop? I really would appreciate any help you could give me - the Annapolis Apple store - they just really don't know how to do things on a Windows laptop.
Please - help? I would SO appreciate it!
ElizaJanePlease - anyone have any ideas? I click on the iCloud Refresh button in Outlook and a time or two I saw a message saying incorrect password. This Refresh button is an Outlook Add In. Anyone know how to delete it and put the correct iCloud add-in on it? I'm SO frustrated - I really don't have any clue what to do.
