ITunes will not open AND iTunes.exe will not LEAVE Task Manager

Hello,
I am also having the same issue with everyone else in that iTunes will not open. This happened to me about two weeks ago and I uninstalled and reinstalled the version that came with my iPod. I figured that after a couple of weeks Apple would have figured out the glitch and fixed it. Wrong. B was asking another user if iTunes.exe was appearing and then disappearing in the Task Manager. I am having the oposite issue in that I cannot End Task in the Task Manager on iTunes.exe. What is up? Can anyone help me? Thanks for the support!

hi bummed! (you do realise that you're stuck with that alias for the forseeable future, don't you?)

hmmm. if that's going on, then we'd better check up on these two possibilities first:

    Open the system menu via Alt+Space or click the Firefox icon on the title bar and see if you can resize that window.
    If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.

    Sofar I have found (off internet),
    A)that if you go into sleep mode, the wifi shuts down or powers down.
    B)sleep mode must be disabled in order for wifi to continue.
    C)you can check this by going into wifi and seeing the iphone every 20 seconds or so looking.
    D)as far as handoff ,I still not to sure but I think BOOTH units must overlap each other in order to handoff from 1 to the other.
    Show much bs on the web that I have to filter the pages and there not enough time in the day to go thru it all.

  • Podcast freezes when i open and has to be closed with task manager.

    When I click into podcasts, it freezes almost instantly and has to be closed with task manager. I believe the culprit may be a login window that pops up asking me to enter a password for a premium service i once used from a certain podcast that i no longer subscribe to. i've tried going into the system files to delete all the files related to that podast, but it's still on the page. and i  can't remove it from the page because it freezes. Can anyone help?

    I've had this issue for months and have received zero response from Apple. Ever since the "upgrade" to 11 podcasts have been infuriating within iTunes.

  • Firefox does not open and support article has not helped

    Firefox will not start when I click on the icon on my desktop but it shows up under Processes in the Task Manager. I have read the related support articles, but it has not solved my problem. I have previously been using Firefox normally.

    If it opens in safe mode, you may have a problematic add-on. Try the procedure in the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.

  • Firefox does not open but there is an entry in Task Manager

    I've tried upgrading my gf's firefox from 3.6 to 5.0.1
    Since then, whenever I click on the firefox shortcut on the desktop, nothing happens. There is an entry in the Task Manager but nothing else happens.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling FF, even trying 4.0.1 to see if that works but I get the same problem there. Which is what leads me to believe it's a software conflict...the problem is I can't identify what it is and why it only stops versions from 4 upwards!

  • Whenever I shut down iTunes on my computer, it keeps reopening and I have to go into Task Manager and end the process in order for it to stop doing this. I am running it on a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit machine.

    Whenever I shutdown iTunes on my computer, it keeps re-opening and I have to go to Task Manager and end the process in order for it to shutdown.

    Do you have Logitech gaming software installed on the PC? If so, perhaps try the suggestion from the following post:

  • I updated itunes to version 11.0 and now it will not open and says it is corrupted?

    i updated itunes to version 11.0 and now it will not open and says it is corrupted?
    how do i get it to work it updated fine then asked to restart comp so i did now it will not open

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

  • I bought an mp3 download of a cd online (not in iTunes) and it will not open in itunes.

    I tried everything. Importing the songs through file, add to library, which usually works. I tried double clicking it and clicking "open with itunes". I even tried dragging each song individually and dropping into itunes but nothing will work! Please help!
    Also, the files are completely fine. They open in Quicktime and play just fine. They just will not open in itunes.

    Have you tried going to menu > file > option+create new version > create AAC and select tracks from your disc. You track should be converted as they are added to library.
    You will need to change import preference to AAC if you have have them set as mp3.
