My iTunes app won't open on my iPhone 5S.

When I click on it, it immediately shuts down. I've turned off the phone and back on. I've also synced with iTunes on my computer. Not sue what else to try.

I just found this answer posted back in September. Not sure why this glitch hasn't been fixed:
Try this fix as it worked for us... It must be a hidden glitch : open the music app and click "store" in the upper left hand corner. It opens the store and corrects the glitch. After that, the store app will function properly again.

All my 3rd party apps won't open on my iPhone 4.

Recently all my apps won't open on my iPhone. All the stock Apple apps work though. All the 3rd party apps don't work. What can I do? I tried resetting, and restoring. What else should i try?

I'm also going through this problem and the only way to fix it (as far as I know) is go to App Store in your iPhone and download any random app (free app preferably), then make sure all your 3rd party apps work again and delete the random app you just downloaded.

ITunes app won't open with the new iOS7 update...what do I do?

Tried opening itunes app, it comes up for a second then closes, not sure what to do...

Hello Gigi,
Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes app after upgrading to iOS 7.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
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.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
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 full article here:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

ITunes app won't open on ipad

When trying to open the iTunes app on my ipad, it quickly closes.
There are a couple of my other apps that are doing the same thing. The Pitfall and Jetpack app that my son plays also closes during the middle of it loading.
How do I fix this?

I just tried this and it did not work :/
I just got the latest update and I'm wondering if that is what is causing it??
I got a new movie on itunes on my desktop, and I was trying to get on itunes from my ipad to be able to load it on there.
Then noticed itunes as well as the other game apps that I mentioned wouldn't load.
Other apps seem to be working just fine and I've been able to download new apps from the app store.

Just synced my iphone 3GS and now half of my apps won't open on my iphone. I tried the reboot but it didn't help. This is version 4.3.2 . Any ideas?

Just synced my iphone 3GS and now many of my app's won't open on my phone. This was with version 4.3.2. I tried a reboot on my iphone but that didn't help. Any ideas?

this happened to me with my iPhone 4. I researched the problem and found this :
"The reason this happens is because every time a downloaded app is opened it checks for your itunes password for validation that you are authorized to open that app (as it may contain personal info). From time to time the iphone 'forgets' your itunes password. You can fix the missing password by syncing the iphone with itunes or downloading an app from the app store and entering your password that way.”
And to fix it, all I did was download a new app, or delete a current one, I used Facebook, and re-download it.
Hope this helps

My FB app won't open on my iPhone 4s

You can try a reset, hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

App Won't Open on Verizon iPhone

Hello All,
A few days ago I purchased an app called "Skeptic's Dictionary" for $0.99. After it installed, I went to open it and it immediately closed. After 2 days worth of troubleshooting to fix it, as well as emailing the app's developer, I came to the conclusion that it's not compatible with Verizon's iOS, which is 4.2.8. The app's developer, in no uncertain terms, basically said it's designed to run on iOS 4.3, which is the latest version of iOS and what AT&T's iPhones have, but not Verizon's. This app was released at the very end of March, so it wasn't around prior or 4.3. Do a Google search, you'll see that Verizon's iPhone's iOS is behind.
Anyways, from what I've read online, Apple sent letters to app developers explaining this and asked them to update their apps to run on both iOS 4.2 and 4.2.8. Obviously this one did not and now I'm out $0.99. Not a whole lot, but it's still money. If I had known about this issue before purchasing this app, I never would've purchased it and instead could've used that $0.99 on an app that I could use. I know iTunes doesn't give refunds, I don't care. If it had been a $5+ app, then I'd be pretty mad, but whatever. I'm now hesitant on purchasing anymore apps because of this; I don't want to waste money on an app that I have no clue if it'll work or not since I don't have the most recent iOS on my phone.
Anyways, my questions:
1) Does this developer have to update his app to work on iOS 4.2.8? Given Apple's strict App & App Store policy, I'm surprised this app managed to slip by them since it doesn't work on Verizon's iPhones, which make up a LOT of the iPhone user base. Should I send iTunes an email letting them know about this app's issue? If I do, will they do anything about it?
2) Is Verizon going to get iOS 4.3 at all? It came out in March and it's now July.
3) Has anyone else with a Verizon iPhone had the misfortune of downloading an app that doesn't work because it's not compatible with anything below iOS 4.3?

Sorry, above, it should be "Apple sent letters to app developers explaining this and asked them to update their apps to run on both iOS 4.3 and 4.2.8"
For some reason the "edit" button is not on my OP.

My apps won't open on my iPhone 4s

Hi does anyone know how to fix this? I have only ha my phone for a week and it's down this twice now and I have tried restarting it 4 times. Thanks

Hi. I have tried resetting my iPhone 4S three times and I have also downloaded a free app. Neither of those have fixed the problem. It only seems to be the Just Dance 3/Autodance app that won't stay open but I don't want to lose all my dancing videos on there as they cannot be recreated Please help me I've had the 4S from November 2011. I assume that if I delete the app and reinstall it that will delete all of my videos? I can't see another way to get them off the iPhone and on to my laptop.

App won't open on my iPhone 4 anymore, just a spinning circle?

I Have been using the cloud app on my phone, but have been unable to open in the last few times, just get the spinning circle. Coincidentally this started happening after the free upgrade from 5 to 25 gb. Any suggestions?

AGCmommy,
Let's keep working on this together. What application are you trying to open up? Have you tried to go to your iTunes/Application store and see if there are any updates? If you have done all of these I suggest that you press and hold the application and delete the application. When you have done that you can redownload the application and not lose any information.
