Itunes shuts down after 2 sec. into import

I start import and i-tunes shuts down (not the pc though). Have to restart i-tunes and then it will import. Sometimes happens 2 or 3 times on a cd. Anyone have this problem that could help?
Gateway Windows XP Pro

Sorry experiencing the same problem. I also have a Gateway computer. While importing I noticed that some songs will only be imported for 6 sec. but all the songs that follow will be imported completely. Now I can't import songs at all. iTunes freezes and slows down my computer. If you get an answer to your problem please let me know.

Mail shuts down after 3 secs on ipad 1

Can anyone help with this, my mail shuts down after approx 3 secs of opening on my ipad, have cleared all mail from desk top pc but still happens??

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Please help: programs shut down after 60 sec's

*Please help me:* Since two weeks or so (may be, after I updated my QuickTime), every program I opened *shuts down after roughly 60 seconds*. It is not closed but it gets out of the writing mode so that I need to click on the page first before being able to continue writing again (Word, email, also this thread). If I do not always look at my page I loose words and have to retype them again. Also, with backspacing it occurs: it gets out of the enter mode. I am not aware I changed anything in the user mode of my dear power book.
Thank you for helping! rororoger

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Try starting up in Safe Mode. If can do so successfully, log in, Empty Trash, Restart normally and log in.
If issue persists Repair Disk
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it says anything but Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior

ITunes shuts down after apr. 40 secs.

Installed ITunes 6.1 for my PC with WinXP Pro yesterday. After opening it, it simply shuts down with no warning after apr. 40 secs. It happens every time, whether I actually do anything with it or just sit back and watch it. My old ITunes worked fine (4 or 5) but I needed the new one to access the music store.
Tried uninstalling, rebooting and reinstalling a couple of times. Tried updating Ipod software. All to no avail. And it happens whether my IPod is connected or not.
Can anybody please help? Would love to be able to hear music again.

Thanks DD
Turned out I had some nasty TrojanClicker virus (MSDN.EXE)and that was the culprit. Unloaded it with MSConfig and ITunes runs again. Thanks a bunch...how can vira makers look themselves in the mirror in the morning and say "hello, you're OK..."?

I am having problems syncing my iTunes music to iTunes Match. ITunes shuts down after the 2nd step every time. Does anyone know how to fix?

Every time iTunes Match starts up, it gets to Step 2, almost makes it to Step 3, and then crashes and shuts down iTunes. I've restarted the computer, and reinstalled iTunes for Windows. Anyone have any idea what I should do next? There are songs that I can't sync to my iPhone 5S because of this.
Thanks!

Welcome to AD!
I have a regular post for the top 3 or 4 fixes for that 9808 error. Obviously you are going to skip #1, since you've already tried it. Let me know how you get on with the next 2.
The top 3 fixes to itunes error 9808 seem to be
1) Go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced, make sure that SSL 3.0 is checked and TLS 1.0 is checked. Also under Security make sure that the “Check for server certificate revocation (requires restart)” is unchecked. Then click ok and fire up iTunes.
2) The culprit was Norton. The users are set up as Admin and Standard. I have Parental Controls turned on in both Vista as well as Norton. Admin users had no problems connecting to iTunes. Standard users would get the error. I had to go to Norton’s Personal Firewall and add the program “iTunes Helper.exe” and set the option to “Allowed” (”iTunes.exe should already be in the Allowed category.) in order for the standard users to be able to connect.
3) close iTunes if you have it open right now. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Local Settings/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes. Delete or cut the preferences.xml file which contains your iTunes preferences. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes and delete or move the preferences.xml file. For Mac users, there is only one file you must delete or move a to a new location and is located at User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.itunes.plist. Restart iTunes and it will recreate those two (or one) files with the default settings. Feel free to set your preferences back to what they were and then connect to the iTunes store and enjoy!
And #4, see if you can get into the iTS from a different windows admin account on the same PC.

FSB Overclock, Computer shuts down after 15 sec

Hello All,
I'm putting together a computer together with the K7N2 Delta board for a friend of the family. It's a XP2800 chip, with a PNY GeForce Fx 5800, and 256 Crucial mem. Here's my prob:
The processor wasn't running at full speed so I went into BIOS, changed bus speed to 200MHz. It obviously should be set to 166MHz, which I learned later. I was successfully able to set the jumpers for the bus speed back to Safe Mode at 100MHz and then boot back into the BIOS. Now my problem is that the Motherbaord doesn't stay on more than like 30 secs without shutting off and the only way to restart it is to kill AC power to the board. At which point, start it again and the process repeats itself.
Does this mean I fried the board and CPU? I sure as hell hope not
Thanks
Lue

Ok:
Power Supply is 400W max output, it came with the case.
PNY GeForce FX5200 128MB DDR
Crucial 256 DDR2100 Ram
Standard Floppy
LG CDRW
Sony DWD+-RW
WD 120 Gig Hd
WD 40 Gig Hd
SB Audigy2 MP3
The computer WAS working with everything in it. Loaded XP pro fine, did initial driver installs. Then I went into the BIOS and set the buss to 200MHz. Then the problems start.
Now, I also checked the CPU fan cause I saw other articles were the CPU was overheating and shutting the computer down. I booted the it up and went into the PC Health in the BIOS and watched the CPU Core temp go to 45 celcius before I turned it off. Could it be the comp is overheating and shutting down?
Thanks again
Luke

Shutting down after 10 sec of inacivity and can't put to sleep

New computer, have been using for about 1 month. Anyways, nothing I've noticed that could have trigerred this change...
When the computer is inactive for only 10 sec it will shut down. Losing all my unsaved data. Really annoying. I can't do anything. When writting an email, I can't stop tyoing because my computer will shut down.
I have also tried setting it to sleep but it will not. It only shuts down.
I have changed the Energy Save to a schedule. It does not work either.
Any ways to change the shutting down feature to never?

Are you certain you haven't downloaded/installed anything lately? It's not normal for the Macbook to shut down without warning and as frequently as what you describe. Is the battery fully charged - and the power supply shows a small green light on it? I'd suggest an SMC and Pram reset for starters (links below). After this, launch DIsk Utility (in Utilities Folder) and verify/repair both the hard drive and permissions.

FCP7 - Computer shut down after 5 minutes of importing HDV footage

Hello,
I've searched around forums for a couple hours now looking for people with similar problems as mine.
I've taken about 10 minutes of 1080i, 24p, footage on my Canon HV40 camera. I'm capturing the footage in HDV-Apple ProRes 422 1080p24 using my own main harddrive (with the OS installed on it) as my scratch disk. After about 5 minutes of capturing, my computer just shuts off. No error, no pin wheel spinning.. just complete shut down. I turn it back on, try it again, same thing... right around 5 minutes it crashes again.
I've tried deleting Perian out of my quicktime library folder, using software update, deleting quicktime and reinstalling the newest version... I'm about to test it again after having trashed my Final Cut Pro settings. I've read that having my scratch disk be the same as my OS main disk could be the problem... which is really unfortunate because I have a lot of room on my main disk set aside for this and I didn't really want to have to buy an external hard drive.
Anyway... long post, but I'm just trying to describe the whole situation here. See my specs in my profile please. Can anyone help me?
Thank you!

God I hate to see someone throwing money at a project without a definante answer, but I would venture to say your processor and ram are really somewhat of the problem. You will find in other threads here, people with better processors and more than twice the RAM you have are still having problems when dealing with HDV. Sure HDV is made affordable to film, but it would seem that you still need good hardware to back that camera if you are looking to edit.
Also, for future reference, I have read by tons of indie filmakers that while its ok to have 1 TB drivers, it is somewhat better to run 2 500 GB drives so you can backup your work in a couple of different places. I don't know if you are using tape or hard drive/memory cards but if you are moving towards a NLE workflow (tapeless) more hardrives are better than large hard drives for storage safety.
I know for positive, many editors and film makers are begging for a software for logging and capturing that improves naming of files, and also automatically backs up the footage in two different places so the cards or hard drive for the camera can be formatted and reused.

Itunes shuts down everytime I try to import a cd

Everytime I try to import a CD, my itunes says 'itunes has stopped working and is trying to fix the problem' then it goes striaght to another warning box that there is a problem and it closes down. I have run the diagnostic thing on itunes but that says everything is ok. My boss, who is quite good with itunes, had a look but he cant't figure it out.
We have had problems with our computers since changing to Windows 2010 64 bit - but so far my itunes has been fine - could this be related? Any help is really appreciated as not sure what to do!

Hi Ellie, first thing I'd try is to see if Windows Media Player can import a CD.
Right after you open WMP, make sure to check its settings so it will not mess up itunes. It is not a good idea to use 2 players that conflict with each other.
Except, in your case it is a good test to see if it is system-wide with your CD drive, or just an itunes bug.
You need to turn it off WMP controls in 4 places.
Player tab: everything unchecked so WMP won't touch your files
Library tab: everything unchecked, esp the box to retrieve info from the internet
Privacy tab: everything unchecked, esp the box to update files
Security tab: everything unchecked so web pages can't launch WMP in the background

Try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.
If not try working through TS1717: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
German version: iTunes für Windows Vista, Windows 7 oder Windows 8: Fehlerbehebung bei unerwartetem Beenden oder Startproblemen
Otherwise for general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

ITunes shutting down after upgrade to 9

I just upgraded to release 9 (in large part because I just bought an iPhone). Right after I finished the upgrade, iTunes started closing within 7 to 8 seconds of launching. Any ideas?
