ITunes will not stop verifying

I have an iPhone4 with the latest iTunes (10.1.0.54) and when I plug my iPhone4 in, it will not stop verifying. I used to have this problem if I canceled a sync. It would verify the phone the next time I plugged it in. I did that this time. I canceled a sync, but now it will not stop verifying to do anything else. I have left it plugged in for 14 hours and it just verifies the entire time. I can do nothing else. It is not set to sync automatically. How do I stop this?

I'm having the same problem, but I've got a MacBook Pro (rather than a PC).
Not only does it continue to 'verify' but it won't even let me force quit (says it's restoring my phone ... but after a number of hours it must be done already).

  • Itunes will not stop downloading a song Help!!!

    I can't get itunes to stop downloading a song. I have tried everything I know how which probably isn't much, however it isn't fixing the problem. Please someone tell me what to do!

    In a peculiar twist, in 11.1.1 two particular podcasts (Science Friday audio & video) have two particular weeks of episodes (one was last week, so it may extend to the future as well) that won't delete permanently.  When you delete the already played episodes, they just download again on a refresh.  That behavior is described in lots of places.  I thought it might be a bug in the RSS code, but I've compared SciFri with some others that don't have the problem and can't identify anything glaring.
    The peculiar twist is that if I mark the already listened to episodes as Played (so I don't have to look at the large counter number), after awhile they show up as unplayed again!  Some bit deep down in the iTunes innards is not sticking as it should once episodes are played, and it's apparently an intermittent issue that affects only certain podcasts.  One would think it couldn't have anything to do with the actual audio or video content, so it must have something to do with the XML or the metadata being read or set wrong.
    Very vexing, because without constant policing, downloads and disc space keep accumulating - a problem for those on limited data plans.

  • I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. 
    There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • HT5654 Just tried 3 times to update iTunes on my PC running Vista.  There was an error.  It stopped the installation.  Now iTunes will not start at all.  The error message tells me to reinstall which I tried but did not work.  What should I do?

    Hello, Jdragone. 
    Thanks for the question.  Start with completely uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below.  Once this is done, download and install iTunes.
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

    If you receive any errors when uninstalling any components of iTunes, try the steps in the article below for each component that gives you an error.
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" alert appears when removing Apple software in Windows

  • Itunes will not update.  I get an message saying that it cannot verify signature and it will not install, itunes will not update.  I get an message saying that it cannot verify signature and it will not install

    iTunes will not update.  I get an error message saying that it cannot verify signature and it will be unable to install.

    Yeah me too try going through the apple website in (firefox) and download iTunes there. Currently that's what I'm doing.

  • Itunes will not install. I get the error message "Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\com.apple.IE.client_main.dll     Verify that you have access to that directory."

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • HT1923 My itunes will not update, and i got a message saying that MSVCR80.II is missing from my computer.  Try reinstalling.  When i try, i get Sevic apple mobile device failed, verify your priveledges with ignore, retry and abort. Still wont download.

    My itunes will not update.  I get a message that is saying that MSVCR80.II Is missing from your computer,   Try reinstalling to fix this problem.  So when i tried to reinstall, it says itunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall error 7 (windows err 126)  Then when i tried to reinstall i get this....Service applemovile device failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient priveledges to start service...the I see  abort, retry and ignore....when I hit retry, it sill fails and i get the same message again.  How do I fix it?  Will I lose all my music if I delete it all and reinstall itunes?  I haven't tried that yet.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    Thanks.  I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
    Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
    Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
    Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
    It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
    Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data.  Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
    Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

  • Itunes 10 will not stop auto syncing

    I have itunes 10 on a mac and a 160 gb ipod classic.
    it will not stop auto syncing when I plug in my ipod, even though "do not auto Sync" button is checked as well as checking off "do not open itunes automatically.
    It syncs FOREVER. I would love to find a way to stop this from happening. I dread plugging in my ipod to put on new music etc.

    I have had this problem with Windows 7 and iTunes updates for some time. Each time it takes hours to solve but with the over the air upgrade to IOS6 on my iPhone and iPad, I was determined to solve and remember what I did, So here it is:

    Hello warrior41
    Start with the article below to troubleshoot issues with iTunes crashing or not working as expected. Start with booting up iTunes into Safe Mode and see if the issue persists as well as creating a new user to see if the issue is system wide.

    After syncing my itunes from my computer to my iphone4, the download icon at the top of my phone will not stop. It appears at all times as though I am in the middle of a download, but it is not connected to anything. 

    This is from a 4S with iOS 7 running iTunes Match:
    You won't see Edit if it's a Genius playlist (like the one in the image above).
