My itunes app won't come on my iphone4.  it just flashes off.  how do i fix this?

My itunes app won't work.  Everytime I try to open it, it just flahes off.  I have an iphone4.

Have you tried closing the iTunes app via the multitasking bar and seeing if it works when you re-open it ?
iOS 7 : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the iTunes app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
iOS 5 and 6 : from the home screen (i.e. not with iTunes 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't fix it then you could try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If the issue persists...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

  • TS1717 itunes store won't open to matter what I do! HELP how do I fix this?

    Ever since I got a new computer with windows 7 my itunes store would not open, so I couldn't buy anything and more importantly I couldn't get updates.
    It claimed there was something wrong with my internet connection, but there's nothing wrong with the wifi connection.
    a blank screen with 'itunes store' on it is all I get when I try to get to the itunes store.
    It hasn't updated with ANY of the ios updates for my phone hasn't been updated in over a year.
    I reset my phone a few nights ago to get rid of old photos and videos so I could just get new ones instead of manually going and deleteing them all, but now it won't connect to my itunes. So I can't sync it and get my phone back to use.
    It's just show a blank screen that says 'iphone'. I don't know why it won't connect or is rejecting our wifi signal or whatever crap is preventing it from loading properly if at all.
    I have tried running it in safe mode, making a new account, turning off the firewall, uninstalling then reinstalling itunes, getting another drive,
    going command prompt and typing in one thing (says it worked, but itunes still wouldn't open) and another thing (again still wouldn't open/load itunes store at all)
    and several more things, if I click itunes store the bar will say "accessing itunes store" but not matter how long I wait or how many times I try it never accesses or opens or loads the store.
    I use my phone a lot, for working and personal family whatnots, and daily tasks, but since itunes store won't connect and it can't get any connection my phone is unusable, the only thing I can do with it is call emergency numbers.
    what am I supposed to do?

    a blank screen with 'itunes store' on it is all I get when I try to get to the itunes store.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store

    Are you running modified software on your phone?  This error seems to be common if the firmware has been modified and you're trying to restore the phone again. 

  • ITunes 11.1.5 won't sync podcasts to my 6th gen ipod nano--how do I fix this?

    iTunes 11.1.5 won't sync podcasts to my 6th gen ipod nano--how do I fix this?
    Until a few months ago, my iTunes had no problem syncing podcasts to my 6th gen ipod nano. Since an update in the iTunes software version (not sure which version), iTunes just won't sync podcasts to the nano. No other changes have occured and only podcasts are affected.
    What's going on? How do I fix this?

    I had the same problem with my nano when I updated to itunes 11.1.5. It seems that the update does not transfer all of your podcast download preferences. Open itunes, select "Podcasts" from the drop down box in the upper left of the screen. The next screen will give you an option to select "My Podcasts" (top center). This will bring up a list of your podcasts on the left. Right click on one and select "podcast settings". This brings up a settings box on the upper right (this is a new variation) with your current download settings for that podcast. The download setting on mine had defaulted to "off" on all of my podcasts. I just reset them to "all episodes" and all is good.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why won't my iPad mini download music or video's? I click the download button and it will say its downloading. Then once finished it will just disappear? How can I fix this problem?!?!

    Are you using the same apple ID and password?
    it seems all is in order, but perhaps the password isn't valid.
    if the reset didn't work, try signing out of iTunes and App Store, then back in.
    have you tried going to App Store - purchased and tapping on the cloud icon for the apps you want?   You will still be asked for your password.

    Hello Whitney262,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I would go ahead and make sure you can first download the content, then remove the song from your iTunes Library, and download again from your iTunes past purchases.  The article below will walk you through the entire process:

    Hi kmkrodel,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having issues accessing iCloud on your Mac or iPad after a change in your Apple ID password, you may find the following article helpful:
    iCloud: Account troubleshooting
    On the other hand, if you are talking about sharing files from your Mac to specific apps on your iPad via iTunes, then this article may be of more use (Note: When using this function, you will only see apps that support file sharing, not all apps on the device):

    All my contacts come up as "Unknown" in my iPhone5.  How do I fix this?  

    Open iTunes and connect your iPod. Select your iPod in iTunes from the Source list. (I'm assuming this still works, although you didn't indicate if it did or didn't.) Make sure the box is checked to Open iTunes when this device is connected. You should be all set!

    Call Apple Care.   You are still under warranty.  You also have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your iPod with no questions asked.
