My iTunes freezes immediately after opening. How do I fix it?

My iTunes (10.2.2) application freezes immediately after opening. This is after having to check the library. I have left it frozen before for several minutes before force quitting. What should I do?

  • ITunes freezes immediately after i open it.

    When I open iTunes it freezes almost immediately.

    This article is a good starting point for freezes:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856
    Also have you been downloading podcasts from the iTunes store? In the past problems downloading podcasts have caused freezing.

  • When i click on the itunes icon it wont open. how do i fix?

    When i click on the itunes icon on my macbook it won't open. It bounces twice then goes back to idle.
    Is there an obvious solution to fix this?

    Restart your computer and try again.

  • ITunes stops responding immediately after opening

    My iTunes stops responding immediately after opening and even force-quit doesn't do.
    Baically it freezes between pressing it and opening the window. In my large library, I can see that it loads it and then nothing more. The menu appears and then the wheel. Force quitting doesn't shut the program, no matter how I do it. It leaves the arrow and the only way is to restart the computer and start again.
    I tried using another account, and it does the same. I tried with a new library. I tried with new prefs folder both on the user and on the Mac HD. I tried reinstalling iTunes. I even tried reinstalling the whole OS X - but nothing. The only thing is that after zapping PRAM it might work once or twice, but no more.
    This is with iTunes 7.0.2, QuickTime 7.1.3 and OS 10.4.8
    I don't know what else to do.
    Any ideas?

    I'm having the same problem. It started recently - maybe about two weeks ago - and occasionally when I launch iTunes it just freezes. I can't force quit it completely - it still shows in the Dock as though it's running, though it's not present in Activity Monitor.
    Curiously, I've also had a couple of kernel panics when clicking iTunes buttons in the past week. I don't recall any system update that might have affected either iTunes or QuickTime, so I'm stumped... The only way to get iTunes back is to log out or restart.

  • TS1717 iTunes shuts down immediately after opening (Windows 7)

    I'm having trouble with iTunes shutting down immediately after opening. I've tried reinstalling iTunes and QuickTime, but I'm still having the same problem. Any suggestions? I have a 64 bit version of Windows 7, and the iTunes installer file has "64" in the name, so I think it's a 64 bit version as well.

    Do you get an error message when iTunes shuts down? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • My calendar just shuts down immediately after opening.

    Hello,  My calendar just shuts down immediately after opening.  I reset the ipad and it still isn't working  Any ideas? iPad 2

    I only kow how to disengae yahoo but maybe the process will help for other email accounts linked to ipad calendar.  Just remeber to go to email accounts and shut down any associations with other programs.
    Here is what I did in yahoo.mail
    Went to My Yahoo
    selected quicklinks (on top left of page)
    Calendar was not shown , so I selected more yahoo services at bottom of list.
    Candar was among many and I selected it.
    You then see your calendar with a margin on left that probably shows a checked box of te name of you calendar.  Uncheck it.
    Also check the subscriptions.  You must decide what makes sense for you there.
    To be more sure,  delete any recent calendar entries in your yahoo calendar or ipad calendar that might have cuased the problem.  that's what happened to me.  I noticed the problem right after I accepted a ics invitation from some else.  I think the ics invitation that I accepteed from my email was the real culprit but who knows.  All I know is that all these things combined solved my problem.
    Close the My Yahoo
    Remeber to check your ipad for any associations and eliminate them and point the ipad calendar to icloud.
    Reboot you ipad
    Check for results
    I hope this helps

    I'm not sure what this means. How is Reader or Acrobat printing from applications? Could you give us some more details as to what you are doing and how you are doing it? Also, do you have all those applications installed on the same machine or is it happening on multiple computers?
    More information = more chance we can help.

  • I tried to update itunes and now it won't open, how do I fix it?  Will uninstalling and reinstalling erase my library?

    I tried to update itunes and now it won't open, how do I fix it?  Will uninstalling and reinstalling erase my library?

    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.

  • Uptated to iOS 5 on my ipad2 and now all of my apps that weren't preinstalled on the iPad crash immediately after opening. I already tried restarting the ipad and that didn't work.

    Uptated to iOS 5 on my ipad2 and now all of my apps that weren't preinstalled on the iPad crash immediately after opening. I already tried restarting the ipad and that didn't work. I really don't want to have to do this with 100+ apps. Or sit through a complete restore...

    Try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
