Music app wont open!!!

i have an iPhone 3G iOS 4.2, i recently did a restore on my phone because it was running a little slow and plus theres a weird gray line running across the bottom of my screen and it only goes away when i turn the screen off...but now since i updated from iOS 4.1 to iOS 4.2 the music app wont open it jus stays white trying to open then it just crashes...any ideas?

Hi Kat713,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the Music app on your iPhone quits unexpectedly when you launch it, first restart the phone. If the behavior persists, reset the phone next:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the article with these steps here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists after resetting the phone, I recommend backing up and restoring your iPhone:

All the best,

    i have an ipod touch 3rd generation and my music app wont open. i click on it and it will close. i can't play any music. Also if i hook it up to my windows vista , itunes would say, can not use because apple mobile device has not started. so i went to the control panel and started it and now nothing shows up in itunes. I can access the ipod through auto play on my computer. any ideas

    I need help, my itouch can not be recognized in Itunes.

  • Upgraded my HD and now 99% of my apps wont open in one user profile

    I upgraded my HD yesterday. I cloned my current hard drive using CCC. When I login under my profile 99% of my apps wont open. The ones that do are iTunes, MS Office 2008, & Toast 9 but none of the rest will including all apple iLife programs. However; when my wife logs in under her profile all the apps open fine. I have repaired all permissions but they still wont open in my profile? Any ideas? If I create a new user profile and move all my personal files, music, pictures into the new profile will that work? I am assuming it would since everything opens for my wife. I hope there is a quick fix but I guess creating a new profile would be easier than reinstalling the OS.

    this is very strange. cloning with CCCloner shouldn't affect anything. I suspect you had some problems in your home directory to begin with. Given this I would migrate to a new user. the easiest is to delete your current user and save the home directory as a .dmg (you'll be given that option). then mount that dmg when logged in as a new user as copy what you need there. use [this post|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6185507] as a guide.

  • Mail app wont open/ crashes

    I turn on my mac this morning and the Mail App wont open, it keeps on crashing.
    I tried holding shift key while opening it and the program does open, but when i select a message it crashes again.
    never had this problem before.
    There is not current updates available for my mac, so I dont know what it is happening.
    I have a 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5 - 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Machintosh HD , I am running Maverics 10.9.1

    Do a backup.
    Quit Mail.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

  • Mail app wont open since 10.5.6 update

    I updated yesterday from 10.4 to 10.5.6 to get ilife. Since then, mail mail app wont open. I click, one bounce and nothing! When I go to restart my G5 it shows mail as being open. I can open a new viewer from the upper tool bar, this will shoe me my folders, but wont open, and nothing appears in my inbox. I can see all my messages and send and receive via web on mobile me. Ive tried syncing... seems the issue is mail not opening to begin with. I getting a wee bit desperate!

  • Apps wont open

    I just got my iphone 4s today and synced up and my apps wont open. Ive had this problem on my ipod before and just downloaded an app and redownloaded but it didnt work for my iphone. I tried everything. i went to my local store and they didnt know what to do they tried hard and soft shutting it off. they told me to call apple so i did and they told me to restire my iphone on my itunes and tried resetting all my settings and nothing works. My apps that i purchased have still remained un open and im getting very frustrated. I just spent $400 on this phone and its not working! I have no idea what to do! ive spend hours on the phone with the apple people and i get no where!

  • Ios7 no call decline option when its locked battert drains fast music is not able to controlled through headset unless the music app is open  please fix these bugs

    Ios7 no call decline option when its locked battert drains fast music is not able to controlled through headset unless the music app is open  please fix these bugs

    if they are unable to update all languages in a normal time gap (it is now 6 months ago they released firmware 4.22 for the first product code (actually mine and maybe a few others)), they should not offer those many versions. the huge bug with out of memory in nokia navigator with firmware 3.58 is not fixed yet for those people. really absolutely not acceptable.
    besides that, currently my phone is in a nokia service center, microphone doesnt work anymore (the one who i call just hears a very loud noise). my brother got the same phone, his one is in nokia service center since 2 weeks now, because it doesnt charge anymore as there seems to be a connection broken inside the phone).
    well that will be fun if the phone returns (approximately 4 weeks), as I guess the phones will have new IMEIs as they will send 2 new phones and not fix the problem (would cost them more). but as i got a western europe with nordics-map licence locked to the imei, the next problem will be there after I get a nokia 6110navi with another IMEI back. i get really upset with this really slow support.
