Random Shut Down of the iTunes program - HELP PLEASE!

My iTunes refuses to work! As of yesterday morning, every single time I try to open up the iTunes program, it does the following:
1] Opens up to the Music Store
2] The bar loads and says "Accessing Music Store"
3] Before the Music Store can load even half way, iTunes closes. There is no message of error or any warning. It simply closes and nothing happens.
I tried repairing iTunes, twice, and restarting my computer, and nothing helped. I then deleted iTunes, and then reinstalled the latest version, and THIS didn't help either. The only difference is that every time I click on the iTunes icon on my desktop, a license agreement comes up, and after I click "Agree," the same problem occurs over and over again.
I was only able to play music once, yesterday afternoon, and I'm not quite sure why. My iTunes played two songs, and when a third came on, it shut off again and hasn't worked since. I recently had wireless Internet installed, and I'm wondering if this could be a contributing factor to my problem? I had my wireless installed about a week ago, but up until yesterday, everything was fine with my iTunes program. Also, I had a very fast, non-dial-up connection before [connected to a high speed internet box] and I did not have any iTunes related problems.
I apologize for the length of this post/question! Thank you SO MUCH in advance for simply taking the time to read this! I am at such a loss when it comes to this issue, and any help or suggestions would be so amazingly appreciated. Thanks again.

What kind of wireless router are you using?
Also go into Win XP firewall (Start > Control Panel> and turn it off, just for a test. See if you can get into iTunes and play something.
Remember to turn Win XP firewall back on.

Hi, my iphone 4s shuts down randomly, Apple told me the phone is fine, I did a 2nd restore, deactivated iCloud, and no the frequency of shutting down is even more, any help please ?

Hi, my iphone 4s ios 6.0.1 shuts down randomly, Apple told me the phone & battery are fine as it holds a charge, I did a 2nd restore, deactivated iCloud, and now the frequency of shutting down is even more, any help please ?

It's almost impossible to say whether it's the battery or something else. If you're running 6.0.1 and you've done a restore and set it up as new, there are no other software updates to try.
If there's no Apple Store near you, contact Apple Care. If you can't wait for a replacement phone, you may be able to get an express replacement (they ship you the replacement before you ship them yours, but they will put a hold on your credit card until yours is in their hands).

I have a 64gb ipad mini that's been updated to iOS 7.0.4. Lately it's been randomely shutting down in the middle of a screen.

I have a 64gb ipad mini that's been updated to iOS 7.0.4. Lately it's been shutting down in the middle of almost any app and the screen goes black and then the apple logo appears as if I've done a hard reset. I've tried both soft and hard resets but with no results. Sometimes thes happens several times in a row. Does anyone have any ideas? I did read discussions and close running apps to make sure there is enough memory. In the past this sort of happened (rarely) and it just left an app and went to the home screen, but this is a total shutdown.

I think you have covered most of everything that you could possibly do at this point other than restoring the iPad iOS software. That's what I would try now. If that doesn't fix it, make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask a genius to evaluate the problem for you.

Help my iPhone 3GS randomly shuts down, what is wrong?, Help my iPhone 3GS randomly shuts down, what is wrong?

My iPhone 3GS randomly shuts down for no reason, and apparently I am not the only person having a problem with this. This happens regardless of how much battery life my phone shows, or whichever application I am using. IS THERE A FIX FOR THIS!!!!!!! I understand that cell phones are not built to last forever, but my phone is in to good of a condition to go out and purchase a new one.

Before you get your knickers all in a twist, try the basic troubleshooting steps Apple recommends:
Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
If you have been through ALL of the troubleshooting steps and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for investigation.

IMac randomly shuts down.. Can anyone help?

My 5 year old iMac has decideded to randomly die on me..
I was using it the other day when it all of a sudden lost power and shut down, every time I tried to re-boot it I could hear the fan/it trying to come on but nothing happened.
I have left it for a few days and come back to it tonight, it switched on fine for a few minutes then same thing again.
Now I can't get it to stay on for more than about 30 seconds (and not enough time to get the file off it that I desperately need!)
Research on the web seems to point to anything from overheating (again I can't keep it on long enough to check the utilities for this, although it doesn't seem very hot!), logic board to power supply to virus'.
Has anyone had this problem and resolved it or can suggest anything I can do? I've tried leaving it off and unplugging it. Tried unplugging all the stuff from it (printers etc) I can't get a genius appointment until next week and need to get a file off it for a presentation tomorrow!
Any help appreciated!

This could be due to an issue with the System Managment Controller. What you should do is try to reset the SMC. This will help reset the power flow of the computer back to the factory defaults in case something became corrupted throughout general usage. (Steps Below)
There could also be environmental variables that caused it, even a power surge that could have cooked something internally. Some power surges you may not even notice because they can be small, but just enough to damage a component. Do you use a surge protection power strip?
SMC Reset on iMac: ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964 )
1- Unplug the power cord from the back of the computer.
2- Wait 15 seconds.
3- Plug the Power Cord back in
4- Wait 5 seconds.
5- Boot the computer.
Let it run for a bit (if possible) and see how long it will stay on.
If doing the SMC reset does not do the trick, then the problem will most likely be due to a Logic Board error and will unfortunately need to be diagnosed at the Genius bar.
Good luck MissLKMorgan! Let us know what happens.

Random Shut Down MAYBE the truth :)

Hi everybody, i have the same issues of you all with my Macbook black...
The random shutdown is not so "random" because is a fan related issue.
With CoreDuoTemp i noticed that running command 'yes' in console cpu temp increase rapidly till 81° C ... then voltage and frequency get decreased to 1,83 then 1 ghz but intel processor protection shut down the system.
The fan in this process is not running at all, macbook is silent instead of using the fan.
I noticed this because i bought this mac in may and since last firmware update i didn't have any kind of problem.
I'm pretty sure that this issue is 100% related to latest firmware update.
Now the only thing to do is to get back mooing fan with the old firmware but how?
Apple please help us!

Many of us have reported that the RSD occur when the computer is cold, rather than hot. Warmth has never been the issue with mine. So it is probably a combination of many different issues, one of which is fan activity.
RSDs are the symptom of a very complicated and large number of issues; most probably they have to do with thermal management, but nobody really knows for sure... hopefully the Apple in-house hardware experts will finally arrive to some kind of conclusion, or series of conclusions.

IPHONE RANDOMLY SHUTTING DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF AN OPERATION

My iphone has taken to shutting down and displaying the Apple logo- can be in the middle of a call, or typing a text, or opening an e-mail. It will go to sleep for a minute(with the logo illuminated), maybe two then the home screen appears again, and the phone will then work faultlessly for an hour, maybe more, then it has another headfit and will crash several times inside an hour. I am running the most up to date version. Rebooting using the home button and off button simultaneously, has no effect. I have restored using itunes, several times- it still does it. I have deleted all the bought apps- to see if one of those was the cause. No better. Just running original apps supplied, still continues to have amind of its own, shutting down on a whim.
AM I ALONE IN EXPERIENCINMG THIS?

This is almost certainly a software issue. You should perform a restore on your computer. If this does not work you should make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your nearest Apple Store. However, I believe a restore should do the trick. Plug the phone in to your computer. Open up iTunes. Sync the phone. Then, from the summary page for the phone in iTunes hit the Restore button and let it do its thing. When it is done it will ask if you want to restore from the back up of your phone. Just say yes and all your information will be synced back over. Welcome to the Forums.

Since upgrading to Maverick my macbook pro randomly shuts down all the time, no idea why...

Since I upgraded to Maverick, my Macbook Pro shuts down quite often without warning. No idea why.

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

A665-S6070 shuts down after memory upgrade. Help please!

This is a critical problem that needs to be addressed by Toshiba.
When looking through the forum, they are quite a few threads exactly like this.
1. upgrade from 4gb to 8gb
2. everything good, except resume from "suspend".    (hibernate works fine also)
3. when resuming from "suspend" ,    fan speeds up for 2 secs -- and hard shutdown.
There clearly is an issue with the Toshiba laptop(s) when upgrading 4GB to 8GB.
Windows MemTest shows the memory is okay.
Also, all of my applications are blazing fast now with the Kingston memory module upgrade KTT1066D3/4G
Again, the only issue is when trying to resume from suspend.

Cheers R2........ suppose at this stage i could start rhyming off a load of star wars lines but uve probably hears them all before.......
N e way......... checked out the link u posted..........very useful......
The module described is identical to what i have.............As with previous reply ( above ) im not sure what to do.........might take up Offteks offer of replacing the module but slightly concerned it might have same outcome......Still not happy bout opening the cover so much........nut needs must i suppose

When i try to buy a song on itunes it says there is not enough memory available at the itunes store, help please?!?

is this a problem with my computer or a technical glitch at their end, anyone know how to solve this or got any suggestions?

If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

My 8310 randomly shuts down

I have my phone fully charged and it will then randomly shut down. The ONLY way to restart it is to plug it into the charger, the hourglass starts up and it takes a while to get back to "normal" .
I think the only constant I can pick up is that the phone does not shut down when lying static.
Please help

Hiya!
have you noticed any particular trend as to what you are doing when it is shutting down?
If it happens when using an app, try removing that app. if its a core program, I would recommend trying a Clean Reload of your OS using the DM and see if that gets it. Just make sure you backup first.
1). Please thank those who help you by clicking the beside the 'Reply' button.
2). If your issue has been solved, please resolve it by marking "Accept as Solution" on the correct post!

MacBook random shut down (again)

My MacBook has been randomly shutting down for the last week, regularly but unpredictably. It's a number of years old at this point, but has rarely given me problems. The battery is long since dead, so I have had to have it constantly plugged in. I've tested with other adapter cords, but the shut-downs still occur. I anticipate it must have something to do with overheating? Any insight for how I can fix this issue, or whether doing so is even worthwhile?

Imac g5 randomly shutting down

i recently purchased a used imac g5 from a computer store for around 500 bucks. I luv the computer, nut it began to randomly shut down in the middle of activity. I took it to the store and the technician said that everything looked fine. of course he ran it for twenty minutes and it did not shut down....get home later that day and it runs for about an hour and shuts down. I have been on it today to test it and it has run for 8 hours perfectly. Is this computer worth keeping? I see the numerous posts about this very problem. has anyone figured out exactly why these units do this, and should i get my money back and move on before i get in to deep?

Hey davie and Welcome to Apple Discussions,
Is this an ALS model?
Well look in terminal and see if there's something in the log. Go to; applications > utilities > terminal. If something's there post it.
Also there's this:

So check for bad caps on the logic board and also in the power supply.
