ITunes shuts down Internet after installation & Firewall

Okay, i have a very weird problem and i REALLY need this fixed. I am having issues after installing iTunes. I download iTunes for Windows 7 64 bit off of the Apple website, it downloads fine and i open up the setup and it installs fine, after installing i notice that my internet has an "X" over it indicating that it is offline, i tried to connect again but it does not work. After iTunes finishes installing it says to reboot, i do as it says but after reboot i notice that my ESET Smart Security Virus Protection is Red and it said that my computer is not being protected, i click on the bubble and it says that the Firewall, Anti-Virus, and Anti-Spyware failed to initiate due to a corruption in the program.. I don't know how this is even possible but the only way to fix this was to system restore. Now i have iTunes on my 2000 Dell Dimensions computer, this runs Windows Xp and iTunes works fine on this computer, it is not updated only because im afraid that it will do the same thing, and i need atleast one computer to sync my ipod to. PLEASEEE help me i really need this fixed.

Well before you try unistalling itunes and all that try right clicking on it and running it as administrator. It worked for me.
But in the event you do have to unistall, make sure you consolidate you library first library>organize library>consolidate. Then do all that or you will loose all your playlists, and if you have alot of music on your computer you don't keep in itunes it will be a long process to put everything back in it, or weed out the songs you don't want in there.
Also if you do the second idea make su eyou restart your computer before you open itunes again.

  • TS1717 iTunes shuts down immediately after opening (Windows 7)

    I'm having trouble with iTunes shutting down immediately after opening. I've tried reinstalling iTunes and QuickTime, but I'm still having the same problem. Any suggestions? I have a 64 bit version of Windows 7, and the iTunes installer file has "64" in the name, so I think it's a 64 bit version as well.

    Do you get an error message when iTunes shuts down? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • ITunes shuts down randomly after 3.2.1 update

    Among other problems after updating to 3.2.1 yesterday, now my iTunes keeps shutting itself down. It will show a "Updating Library--this may take a few minutes" message and then will shut down. Sometimes it will let me play a few songs and then shut down.
    I am really ready to restore my iPad to factory settings to verify if it's the update or the device that is at fault. Before I do that I thought I'd post it here.
    Thanks.

    Once my iPad iTunes library updated it seemed to be ok. Stay tuned...

  • Why does iTunes shut down IMMEDIATELY after opening?

    I'm running the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7 Home Premium.  Immediately upon opening iTunes (5-10 seconds later) it shuts down and I get an error message that says "iTunes has stopped working."  That's it.  No explanation.  The computer is 2 years old and I've never had this problem before.  It started last week (when I was running a previous version of iTunes), so today I thought I'd upgrade to the latest iTunes and it would solve the problem.  No such luck.
    Any help?  PLEASE...

    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 right after loading

    Itunes runs and as soon as the screen pops up getting message itunes has stopped working, then windows will close itunes and search for a solution.
    Solution is to download the latest version of itunes which i have done three times without success. I have tried the repair function through control panel with no success.

  • After itunes software update on vista, itunes shuts down - any help?

    After I update itunes, Windows says that it needs to shut down the application due to an unexpected error.  Windows support says to repair itunes.  I process the repair, then itunes shuts down "unexpectedly" again.  Windows supports says to repair again. Same circle..... itunes never works.  I am using Vista.  Any thoughts?

    I did this and it still gave me the microsoft error " itunes has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windos will close the program and notify you is a solution is available".  same circle again.

  • ITunes Shuts Down When Launching the Store

    I am able to open and use iTunes normally for playing songs and playlist organization, but every time I try to launch the store iTunes shuts down completely. No error message or warning. I have not had any problmes with it in the past, and nothing has changed as far as settings or new hardware/software. As far as I can see all firewalls and anti-virus programs have been turned off, and I am able to log into other file sharing services fine. Could it be a low memory issue?
    Anyone have any ideas??
    All advice and help is appreciated...thanks!!
      Windows XP  

    I am having a similar problem at home but I have found a pattern. I have itunes installed on my laptop. When I launch the store through my connection at work everything works fine - the CPU is only 60 % peaked at the worst time and this is with MS Excel, and a TV streamer working simultaneously. When I attempt to lauch the store at home on my laptop using either a wireless or a wire connection through my Xplornet satellite connection the connection freezes, my CPU is 100.0 % used. and and the system is frozen. I can still play tunes from my library but itunes is functioning very slowly.
    I also frequently get a message using the help function in the program that I do not have a "secured connection to the store.
    This problem just started after Xmas and I also installed the new Itunes version. Everything was perfoming fine at home with all of my computers. Now both my desktop and laptop suffer the same consequences
    Like you, all of my firewall and Explorer settings are correct. Based on my opposite results and consistentcy, I therefore contend its the internet connection that appears to have some bearing on the problem. I also removed Norton from all of my systems and replaced my protection with something less greedy on my resources. Although my connection is not true high speed from a performance standpoint it is still approx. 80 - 90 times fast than an analog connection. Because I live in the country where true high speed connections don't exist, this is as good as it gets.
    Check your signal strength in your internet connection. It would be appreciated if Apple could respond to my email last week. After all we are the ones prepared to buy downloaded music and we can't without getting these bugs resolved.
    Should I reinstall the old Itunes version ? There is an old saying - " If it works fine - change it ! "
    Thanks

  • Itunes shuts down while using

    When in iTunes if I try to change info such as song name while in the music library I get a 'send error report' messege and iTunes shuts down. I acctually I don't have to change anything just click in the field and when it turns blue which indicates I can start typing I get the windows error box pop-up. This started after the update 11.1.0.126 but I just saw the problem today as I rarely need to rename a song  or other data.

    Try this and see if it helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Itunes shuts down when connecting Ipod HELP

    Recently when I connect my Ipod to my Itunes a windows error message appears and shuts down itunes for me. The message reads that Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to shut down. I am unable to transfer any music, play songs off my ipod, or delete songs off my ipod. I have reinstalled Itunes several times. All of my songs are stored on my IPOD only so reseting would erase all of them. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Yes this used to happen to me also. Heres how to fix it. If this event just started happening after you have downloaded new music, I know how to fix it. Sort your iTunes by DATE ADDED. Then start clicking on the songs or videos, etc. in order from top down. When you click on a certain one(s) and iTunes shuts down, this is what you do:
    1. Find the file(s) on your computer by doing a computer search from the start menu.
    2. When you locate the file(s), click on it or them and send them into your recycle bin or trash for mac users.
    3. Then open iTunes.
    4. Locate the file(s).
    5. They should have a little ! next to them.
    6. When you click on them, iTunes won't shut down.
    7. Just right click on the file(s) and delete them again, this time from iTunes.
    8. Reset your iPod.
    9. Connect it.
    10. Your problem is solved!

  • ITunes shuts down when syncing iTouch with another computer

    Decided to use a different computer(laptop) running windows. Have moved library via hard drive transfer. Went to connect iTouch- couldn't restore it, but genius bar got it working. Probable antivirus conflict. Now after updating software for both iTunes and iTouch and consolidating library , can't get sync to work. I backed up iTouch before attempting sync and it did import contacts etc. But now it won't sync music library. When I manually move an album to the device , now iTunes shuts down and becomes unresponsive after the first 3 or 4 seconds of the tranfer. Very frustrating.

    look at this article.  The article give a link for XP.

  • Itunes shuts down during iphone 5c sync

    When syncing one of our two new iphone 5c's in itunes after it was "restored" from old 1phone 4; itunes shuts down as soon as the APP button in clicked. 
    All other tabs work, but as soon as the APP button is clicked, itunes shuts down.
    I have the updated version of itunes and the updated iOS software.  I shut down and restarted both the computer and phone with the same issue.
    I am able to use the APP button with the other new iphone 5c.
    Any suggestions or guidance?  Thank you!

    This is really silly but here is the soultion:
    You can't have Newsstand hidden in a folder. 
    If you do, move it to the homescreen then you will be able to access the Apps tab in iTunes 11.1.  You can always move it to the folder afterwards.You can't have Newsstand hidden in a folder.  If you do, move it to the homescreen then you will be able to access the Apps tab in iTunes 11.1.  You can always move it to the folder afterwards.
