My iTunes just starts up without any input from me?

I can be working in other programs and iTunes just starts up by itself? It does itt randomly and I can't set a pattern for it doing this.

I had this happen to me. Twice.
My problem was that the external speaker wire had come loose from the computer speaker jack. Confirm that your external speaker wire into your Mac is fully plugged in. If it is not fully engaged into the jack, and the computer slightly wiggles (e.g., by typing on a keyboard), iTunes will start up.
Just a thought. . .

It is probably a test charge to see that the account you have established is valid. Apple will not pursue the charge and it will eventually drop out of the system. It is simply a technical matter.

I am getting interference on my Ipod touch on music that I sync from down loaded CDs to ITunes on my PC. The music is clear when I play it on my PC but has the interference on the Ipod. This just started recently. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Thank you so much for the reply. I does not appear to be the headphones because I get the same interference sound from my Ihome radio when I dock by Ipod on it as well as when I connect the Ipod to the radio connection in the car. I have isolated the issue to the Ipod because these same tunes play without interference on my PC so something is happening in the sync process.

Why won't iTunes just PLAY an album, in order, from start to finish?!

Very confused....I can't get an album to play through iTunes on my Mac anymore. It used to work just fine but now, no matter what I try, every time I try to play an album iTunes just picks one song at random from the album and plays that. It won't move on to the next one, even if I try to press the button to skip to the next track. It always seems to play the same track and won't let me do anything!
It's really annoying and I can't see what is different from before I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Getting thoroughly disheartend with iTunes lately; wish I had never bothered downloading the latest version-it's horrible!
Can anyone out there help with a straight forward and not-too-technical explanation to help me to be able to play an album, from start to finish , in the order it was made without having to mess about? I am not used to the whole "Apple" way of working yet- previously had a PC with Windows Media Player which worked really easily. iTunes is infuriating me so far!
Thanks!

Open iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar and View>Show Status Bar. This will make the new version appear more like earlier versions. Then go to the Controls menu at the top, choose Shuffle and click "Turn Off Shuffle" (if it shows this).

Is there a way that I can control iTunes with the iPhone without any internet connections?

First let me say that I am ready to throw this POS in the lake. Is there a way that I can control iTunes with my iPhone without any internet connections? On my houseboat I have a wifi router and want to connect my phone to my computer to control my music which plays from my computer through my stereo. I can easily do it with my laptop without having to jump through any internet APPLE BS , but I dont want to have my laptop out on the deck. I just want to use the phone as a remote control.
Remote wont do it because it keeps saying Im not connected to the internet, even though is is connected to my computer. Same problem with JumiAmp.

It should have an option to manage iTunes library without network connection, like Bluetooth or connect directly to the computer without a router or wi-fi, i live outsite of the city and i dont have the ability to control my iTunes librry from the iphone

ITunes just starts playing randomly.

Hi, first time this happened. Recently iTunes just starts playing by itself randomly even hours after I stop playing it. Sometimes I am doing something else and sometimes the computer is just sitting there idle and it starts playing. iTunes is always already open in the background. This anomaly coincides with another glitch that I have been having lately, where I have a lot of trouble connecting blue tooth for my bose mini sound link II. It eventually always does connect but sometime I have to connect and reconnect again and again sometimes for five or more minutes.
Any thoughts?

I think I may have fixed the problem. After trying loads of other ideas (new user account, trashing plists, etc., none of which had any effect) I disconnected all of my USB cables and hubs and reconnected just the essentials. I also unplugged and re-plugged the audio-out cable to my amp/speakers. After this I relaunched iTunes and haven't had a recurrence yet (going on 6 hours.) My fingers are figuratively crossed.

Hello, I have update may Win8 to 8.1 and the Itunes doesnt start at all. any idea?, Hello, I have update may Win8 to 8.1 and the Itunes doesnt start at all. any idea?

I did this several times.... not help. If I run win8.1 safe mode the Itunes stars and mentioned that video and sound driver not fit for them. After this I downgrade the driver to Win7---> not helped after this I update driver to latest--> not helped....
This is the situation right now.

HT1473 My iTunes just started not burning my playlists to a CD saying it needs to be reinstalled. What is wrong?

My iTunes just started not burning my playlists to a CD saying iTunes needs to be reinstalled. I do not know how to reinstall with out that pop-up request. I checked the latest version under help and I have the latest version. I do not know how it could have created an error that will not allow me to burn my playlists to CDs.

many thanks.
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Yes you do not need a Sim card for it to use Wi-fi

Can anyone explain to me why sometimes my ipad2 locks up and won't respond to any input from the keyboard.

My iPad 2 locks up sometimes and won't respond to any input from the keyboard. Have to reboot in order to fix the problem.

You have 3 choices:
1. Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.
2. Restore from backup using iTunes
3. Restore as new without the backup

How can I sync apps from my iTunes on Macbook Air without syncing apps from the iPad 2 to my Macbook Air?

How can I sync apps from my iTunes on Macbook Air without syncing apps from the iPad 2 to my Macbook Air? (As my Macbook Air is only 64GB and my iPad is 64GB and that my Macbook Air only has 40 GB left...) Or is there no other way but to sync apps from iTunes to iPad without syncing apps from iPad to iTunes(it says Backing Up , then it says Converting files to iTunes, then it shows the name of the app on the bottom...)

Yes, sign in with the same Apple ID as your stolen one in the new iPod Touch.

ITunes pausing, playing, skipping tracks without any input.

About an hour ago, my iTunes began to pause, play and skip tracks without me doing anything at all. I made sure that i wasnt pressing ANY buttons and i even quit the app altogether. This did not help as it just reopened seconds later and began playing music again. How can i stop this from happening?

I just started having this very same problem. iTunes (9.1) will stop and start on its own. Sometimes I am listening to music while in another app, like in a browser or word processor, and it will pause itself every few minutes. It will be fine for a while, then it will pause, I start it again, and it pauses again and again. Other times it will just randomly start playing if was left paused.
The freakiest is when the app starts up by it self. I watched it Start up on its own 3 times in one hour. I think this is why my computer once woke up from sleep mode in the middle of the night.
It is like there is a ghost playing with my computer, or iTunes is possessed. I did several virus scans, and their was nothing. I also Ran Tech tool. Next I will work with Disk Utility, see if that finds anything.
The only thing that occurred about the same time was I started getting more spam in the email account that goes to my mac mail. These may be unrelated, but it is the only noticeable thing that has occurred around the same time.
This feels like some sort of Malware, Zombie computer situation, but I can't find much about Mac Malware evidence out there.

My iTunes just started like I've never used it before clearing all 7000 songs and playlists. My ipod said it's synced to a different iTunes?? HELP!!

Someone please help!! I just started my computer and opened iTunes and it looks like a brand new iTunes that's never been used before. All of my 7000 songs and all playlists are gone. When I tried to sync my iPod it says it's synced to a different iTunes. What do I do??

I have a similar problem - transferred from an older iPad to a newer one.
Once over the hurdle of the backup being encrypted with a password that was never set, the new iPad thinks it is synced with a library on another computer that will not be up to date (it was an old backup made on the original device).
Some of the backup information has not fully restored the new iPad to the same state as the old one - if I connect and sync to the computer with the older library, will this;
a) erase any data - i.e. should I not automatically sync?
b) will it recover the missing data - or is it 'lost'?
c) will it always require synching to this library - I intend for the device to be synched with another PC because it is faster and more convenient - this is the one where the backup and restore has been carried out rather than waiting for an iCloud sync.
The old iPad has already been reset - will this process have to be completed from scratch again? i.e. is there a way of divorcing the old iPad from it's old library then backing up and getting a full transfer.
