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...

IPhone 4s shuts down randomly after 7.0.6 update

After updating my iphone 4s to 7.0.6, my phone randomly shuts down. Doesn't seem to be related to how much charge is left in the battery. Any suggestions for how to fix this problem? Thanks

Hello Rudegar,
I did think it might be hardware issue and searched online, and saw these posts already. I tried to clean the headphone jack, tried to put and pull out the headphone several times. And no, it is not the cause.
I know that because while playing the music with headphone, and when I pull the headphone off, then music stops and the volume is adjusted. So no iPhone is not stuck with headphone mode.
Thank you for the info though.

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.)

Ipad shuts down randomly after latest software update

ITunes shuts down randomly.

Help! My iTunes shuts down at certain times and songs.
What is this???

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!

IMac shuts down randomly after downloading Lion

About a month ago, I installed OS X Lion from the App store. Ever since then, my iMac randomly shuts down, even when it's not necessarily hot. It especially shuts down when I have multiple videos playing like on YouTube and Netflix, but still, it's not abnormally hot. Never had a problem before and this iMac is 2 years old. I have even reinstalled Lion twice now after using the Command + R. I even tried the disk utility part. And tried holding down the shift key at startup, which I did first by the way...
Please help!!! I've never had a problem with any of my other Apple devices (MacBook, iPhone 4 & 5, iPod) so this is kinda shocking to me.
iMac info

ITunes shuts down immediately after start-up, while accessing the iTunes store. MacBook Air OS 10.6.8

I cannot access iTunes. It shuts immediately afyer start-up. I upgraded to 10.5.1andit gets to the point of contacting the iTUnes store when it shuts down. Any suggestions?

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.

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 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.

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.
Any ideas please!

Right mouse click iTunes icon and select 'run as administrator'

Mack mini shuts down randomly os10.9.4 all updates are installed

This reliable little box is suddenly having fits, There's no warning. It just dumps

None. That's what threw me. It happened again right after I posted and I walked away from it. When I came back I started unplugging peripherals and found a wonky power strip switch. Go figure.
Thanks anyway Linc. I'm going to go away now and wait until my face isn't so red.

TS1363 why does Itunes shut down when I purchase songs.also when trying to download updates it fails to update.I am using windows 8

when I purchase songs Itunes shuts down.also when I try to update I tunes I keep getting an error message that says failed to download

I appreciate your response but not sure now if it could have been anything in that answer because.......
This problem appears to have gone away, not sure why but I have a possible theory. This is only a theory on my part as I'm not knowledgeable on the inner workings of Firefox. When I installed Firefox 18 it had all the automatic updating options turned on by default. By the time I turned them all off, I'm assuming it had started to download updates for all the plugins and addons, like java, quicktime etc. etc. etc. even though I hadn't personally initiated those downloads and updates. My theory is that once those downloads had started, even though I had turned off the automatic updating, it was going to continue downloading the updates that had started and was not going to stop until it had done so.
I do not disable the anti-phishing and evil website detection stuff but I seriously doubt the updating for those items would have consisted of 89 megabytes of data but I could be wrong.
So for now, I'll close this out and mark it solved and continue to monitor to see if I have any more "weirdness" go on.

HT1430 My ipad2 shut down randomly and than start. Problem is remain after reset. Please help!

My ipad2 shut down randomly and than start. Problem is remain after reset. What is the solution.

You can try restoring your iPad as new using iTunes on your computer. This will load a new copy of the iOS software onto your iPad.
If this doesn't work you may have a hardware problem and will need to contact Apple Support.

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.
