TS3212 itunes takes a while to open on windows 7

When I open itunes, it takes a while to open up. What can I do about this?

Hello there Tonyal8507,
I was researching what might cause performance issues with iTunes on a Windows computer and found this lil gem. Named Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store, found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4123, I think it will help you out.
If that troubleshooting does not resolve your issue, you may want to consider recreating your iTunes library.

  • (Windows 8.1) My iTunes takes a while to open, freezes and doesn't recognize any apple device plugged into it.  I've uninstalled iTunes and other software components in the order I was told but still end up with the same result.Why is that?

    Why is iTunes for Windows 8 (8.1) taking so long to boot up, not recognizing an apple device and freezing after a proper uninstall and reinstall?

    Hmm....I just had another thought.  All the machines are running Win7 SP1, BUT the 2 that can sync with MSE installed are 32bit versions, however the one that can't is 64bit.  Not sure if that makes any difference though.  All are clean installs with Win7SP1 media, not SP1 installed later.

  • I update my iPhone in iTunes, and after some time, opened a window saying "rosolvendor conflict" and asking me to choose, giving me two options, showing the name of a friend who also has an iPhone. Can anyone help me?

    Dear Tim,
    I saw your message. Below are the problems:
    Whenever I connect my iphone 3GS to my PC through a USB. My itunes software comes up automatically.
    1. After that a message appears from the itunes that states that 'itunes could not connect to the itunes store, an unknown error cccured (306).
    2. After the above, an alert message comes up which states that A new iphone software version 5.1 is availlable for my iphone. It then states would you like to download it and update your iphone now? With the options buttons as Cancel or Download and Update or Download Only. Whenever I clicked on Download and Update or Download Only, the next message that comes up is that The iphone Software Update Server Could not be Contacted and suggest make sure your network setting are correct and active or try again later.
    The above is the challenges I am facing now.

    Are you trying to transfer the GarageBand projects or the rendered audio files? What version of GarageBand do you have on your iPhone?
    I do not think you can share your GarageBand projects from your iPhone to GarageBand on your Mac, unless you have iCloud, afaik, only the audio files.
    How did you transfer the song?
    To share from an IOS device the Projects or audio files, see:  Share GarageBand songs

  • Itunes suddenly not able to open on windows 7

    Hey,
    Suddenly, iTunes will not open on windows 7. If I try to open it, it appears in the taskbar, but will disapear from the taskbar a second later.
    I have been using iTunes on this computer for 3 months, and this is the first trouble I have had with it. A day before this happened, it would not recognise
    that I plugged my iPod Touch (Even though windows regonized it as a camer, like always.) It kept trying to wifi sync, which wouldn't work because our wifi wasn't working at the time.
    Thanks for any help.

    Doublechecking. Have you worked through the following troubleshooting document?

  • Tray takes a while to open

    Hi, I just bought a MSI DR4-A DVD writer and everytime I press eject, the led turns on a bit and 2-3 seconds later it opens.
    Is this normal? Never experienced it with my other writers.

    Ah okay, another small question, I updated nero and the firmware was already 2.30, but I can only burn a dvd+r at 2.4 and 4 speed, not 1x or 3x.
    It's not the media (support 1-4x) so is there a fix for this?
    Nevermind, just saw a review saying this:
    DVD+R write speed at 2.4x and 4x
    And my media was dvd+r and nor - r
    Sorry

  • Itunes takes an hour to load in windows 7

    I recently upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate from Windows Vista. When I did this iTunes stopped working. I uninstalled and installed it several times and it wouldn't open. I found suggestions about deletng some system files and it helped.  Now it opens, but only after I let it load for an hour.  After opening iTunes it looks like it isn't loading. If you look at the Task Manager, you can see that it is running - just not up on the screen. If I let it sit for an hour it will finally appear on the screen.  Any suggestions?

    It starts up slowly for me as well but it doesn't take that much time to load.  Have you tried defragging your drives?

  • Itunes downloaded but won't open on Windows 8

    I just purchased a laptop with Windows 8 and Itunes downloaded fine but it won't open.  It says "Itunes has stopped working".  I have a Sony Vaio and my previous computer was a Sony Vaio so I know it should be working.  Any tips or advice on what to try?

    If that doesn't solve things then 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.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Itunes 6.0 will not open in windows

    The new version of itunes will not open but in the windows task manager it shows that itunes is running. I want to know how to fix this problem, see if norton anti virus is causing the problem, or will apple release a new version of itunes that fixes this problem.

    hi Gregory!
    I want to know how to fix this problem, see if norton anti virus is causing the problem,
    are you running Norton Internet Security 2005? if so, that's been causing this to people on installs/upgrades since 4.8.
    if it's just itunes processes being blocked, you can fix it using these techniques:
    b noir, "itunes wont open" #6, 02:11pm Oct 3, 2005 CDT
    ... but if that doesn't work, you're probably getting QT processes blocked too, and you should try "Lorraine":

    keep us posted.
