Pleeeease help!! iTunes driving me crazy! Any suggestions welcome
When iTunes plays any track it freezes the whole computer when it gets to 11s into the track then becomes unfrozen at 24s. Media player doesn't do this so it has to be an iTunes problem. I have downloaded iTunes many times to try and fix/reinstall the software but nothing works. Please help! Any suggestions welcome!!
I had a similar problem when I got my Mac. I had problems with both syncing to iPhone as well as Apple TV. I ended up deleting and reinstalling iTunes (make sure you get all the components, there's a KB out there on it). Then repairing permissions using the Disk Utility (reinstall iTunes after this), apparently that fixes a lot of sins in the Mac world. (The basic problem is permissions, or at least mine was.)
I too was skeptical at first.

iTunes keeps popping up for no reason with nothing connected and it is driving me insance, any suggestion?
I have tried rebooting and this hasnt helped.vivianalozano wrote:

That really is not likely since the device would have to have at one time been physically connected and synced to your computer, AND Wi-Fi sync enabled while connected to your library, AND they'd have to be on your Wi-Fi network. Unless you have someone who did all this and lives within Wi-Fi range, and knows your network password, that's not what's happening.
Do you have any auxillary software add-ons to iTunes (e.g. Last.fm scrobbler)? Sometimes those get in the way of shutting iTunes down and it will re-open unless you shut the other software down first. -

You might have better luck posting in the iPod Nano forum. You posted in the iPod Touch forum. For an iPod Touch one would start here:

I'm all Mac across the board: iPhone 5, Macbook Pro, Apple TV etc. I can't get the movies I've purchased on my Apple TV to appear in my iTunes library for viewing… Any suggestions? I have iTunes Match turned on and everything.
Thanks Terence! I can see iTunes library from neither iPhoto or iMovie . I'll check on iTunes forum.

currently running Mac OS X version 10.5.8, would like to update to 10.8.2 in order to also upgrade to itunes 10.7. Any suggestions ?
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
7. Xserve (Early 2009)
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

I can not open itunes in windows 7, any suggestions?
Over time I've come across a number of posts concerning iTunes for Windows not opening. One conclusion from other Windows users that you might want to check out has been that it could be the result of malware on your PC. The advice has been to try scanning for malware with ewido, you'll find a free download at this link: ewido Anti-Malware

I am trying in vain to update itunes on my pc, any suggestions please
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

when i try to add music to my ipod it takes centuries to download then when i click on the ipod while its syncing my itunes freezes up..any suggestions?
In itune did you play any of the songs downloaded. If so plug your ipod back in an manualy check off to sync all music. If that doesn't work you might have to restore the ipod.

How do I get my Ipod to play music videos through my theatre system? I keep getting the message "This device not supported". My theatre system WILL recognise my Iphone however. The theatre system, Ipod, and Iphone are all less than 4 months old. Any suggestions welcome!
Check with the theater system vendor and see if their system is compatible with the Nano. The resolution on the Nano may be too low for the system.

I have just about given up trying to download Mavericks for my 6-month old iMac running OS X 10.8.5. Each time it gets to around 996mb and stops. Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks Giancarlo. The problem turned out to be my modem/wireless router, which has now been replaced and the problem solved.
