Itunes store access causes itunes to be not responding?

This is pretty strange -- at my home all this works fine -- I select itunes store and I can navigate and select things and even run diagnostics and everything works fine. At my office (where I have network control) when I click on the itunes store, the programs instantly goes into not responding mode and can only be shut down through the task manager. The same thing happens if I run diagnostics -- instantly get the windows message that say this program has performed a fatal error and needs to close. I can restart itunes and I can play music from my library and stream it as well -- I can even go to look at my online account options -- check my balance -- all of which requires a connection, but if I click on the home icon -- the program hangs -- this used to work just fine, but I believe stopped working upon my upgrade to itunes 8.
If I could identify what itunes is doing when it tries to connect to the store and run diagnostics, perhaps I could check and see if there are any problems in the network issues.

UPDATE: I authorized the computer -- which itunes confirmed was already authorized, but now the itunes store works -- go figure.

  • ITunes Store access causes "iTunes has Stopped working...Windows is check..

    When accessing iTunes Store from iTunes, which has worked well for several years, it stops half-way through progress bar and then I get the "iTunes has Stopped working...Windows is checking..."..then " A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you..."
    Probably not a related problem, but also, when synching with an iPhone that I recently reset, copying just 188 tracks in selected playlists to transfer to the iPhone, the copying stops and hangs after just a few tracks, so this is unsuccessful too.
    Another iPhone worked a synch but fewer tracks to download!
    I've uninstalled and re-installed iTunes 9.2 etc - doesn't fix problem. Any help please?

    Wow, that is crazy .... but it worked! Thanks for taking the time to post that up as I would never have even dreamed of thinking that the display drivers would stop iTunes working... that *****.
    For any one else - this was Windows Vista on a Dell inspiron, went to Start menu-> Settings-> Control Panel-> Device Manager -> Display Adaptors -> right click on ATI Radeon (in my case) and then "Update driver software" and let windows search the web

  • Itunes stores purchase causes itunes freezes

    Despite having downloaded the latest version of Itunes (10.6), itunes freezes any time i try to buy a song.  the purchase does not complete and utines freezes until i reboot. 

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • TS1424 HELLO! whenever i try to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop i get this message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is availabl

    for a few weeks i have not been able to access the itunes store from the itunes on my laptop. every time i click on it it tells me it cannot access the store...not sure why. and says this: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.

    I had this exact same problem.  I found this fix and it worked for me. 
    Step 1:
    Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll. 
    Step 2:
    Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
    Hope this helps you.  I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
    Good Luck.

    iTunes is a program on your computer, it is not "the Internet".  The fact that the program runs has no bearing on Internet connectivity.
    Maybe if a little more information was supplied, like version of the Operating system on the computer and version of iTunes, then a little more assistance could be provided.

    Try quitting the App Store:
    Tap the home button to get to the home screen. Then double tap the home button, and hold your finger over the App Store icon. Tap the red when it appears. Tap the home button again to return to the home screen.
    Try resetting:
    Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.

    Accepted payment types
    You need an Apple ID to buy items in the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store and iBookstore. When you create an Apple ID for any of these stores, you will need to provide a payment method for purchases. The available payment methods vary by country, but typically you can use:
    Credit cards
    iTunes Cards
    iTunes Store Gift Certificates
    Content Codes
    Store credit (including Allowance Account balances)
    ClickandBuy
    PayPal
    In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros.

    check to see if you are online
    check to see if you can access secured websites (https) on your computer / device
    if this is on a computer with windows configuring your antivirus / firewall to not block itunes some times will help, also resetting your tcp/ip might fix it (open command prompt as an administrator, type: "netsh reset winsock" hit enter, restart computer
