Updated iTunes 10 is crashing

I updated my computer to iTunes 10 today, and now every time I connect my iPad 2 or my iPhone 3G and then click on one or the other of them to do a sync, iTunes completely crashes. Is anyone else having this problem now? Both devices are completely up to date, as is my Macbook Pro. But now I can't sync my devices - a serious worry!
Thanks
Carol

The culprit seems to be the iPhoto library. If you move it out of the Pictures folder, say to the Desktop, you should find you can sync your devices with iTunes 10.6
If you don't use iPhoto that's fine. If you do, you'll have to move the library back again each time you use it, until Apple gets around to fixing the issue.

After the update iTunes keeps crashing and won't play any of my music and keeps restarting my phone.

Anyone else have this problem and resolved it?
Thank you!

Well, I hadn't rebooted after the 7.1.1 upgrade, but obviously I had to restart iTunes. After I rebooted my iBook iTunes worked... Maybe the 7.1.1 update should be marked with a must reboot?

After latest update itunes match crashed with empy library

After being a little late i finally updated itunes to the latest version (on windows 8.1), now itunes keeps crashing when it connects to itunes match (from an empty library all music is in cloud)
Tried a lot of solutions here like:
hold shift and create new library
delete all itunes related files and re install
disable firewall and anti virus
I cant look for corrupted files, since there arent any songs on this laptop.
Anyone has any idea what solution i might be missing? Problem starts seconds after syncing an empy library to itunes match

Newly updated itunes keeps crashing / freezing

i recently both consolidated my 80 gig music library to a new 320 gig LaCie little disk firewire hard drive and updated my itunes software to the most current update. almost every time i start playing an MP3 my itunes becomes unresponsive about 3 seconds into the song for 30+ seconds and pauses for about 20 seconds in between songs. this is the least of the issues. what's worse is that it takes up a large percentage of my CPU.
i never had this problem before updating my itunes... have tried throwing the itunes application away and reinstalling, and this hasn't helped. i can't imagine it would be the new LaCie drive as it works flawlessly outside of itunes.
anybody else having similar issues? it's pretty annoying. i would just go with another media player, but i don't know what else i could sync my iphone through.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!

ok i cannot help you directly, but i have a similar issue. i have all the music i want on my ipod also saved in itunes, but, my computer is very slow now because of all the memory the music takes up, it even crashes form time to time.
i want to know if there is a way i can delete the music form itunes and my computer and be able to only add music to my ipod. i have tried a few things but everytime i remove something form the library it deletes it from the ipod when it syncronizes.
any advice?

Downloaded new iTunes/iPod updater, iTunes now crashes during iPod updating

I downloaded the new iTunes and iPod updater yesterday-- now when I plug my iPod into the USB, it recognizes my iPod, the "Updating iPod. Do not disconnect." message comes up, but as soon as "Updating Track 1 of 9." appears, I get a Send Error Report message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. etc" (I wasn't sure what, if anything, I shoudl include here from the Error Report Contents.) Has anyone else encountered this or have any tips? I've tried the uninstall/reinstall trick to no avail.
Thanks!

I fixed this for my Nano by using the iPod Updater Restore to revert the firmware to version 1.0 and removing iTunes 6.0.2 through Control Panel. I didn't delete the leftover directories. I then reinstalled iTunes version 6.0.1.3.
The Nano is now happily recopying all my music. Should be done by midnight.
Good luck.

After iPad update iTunes festival crashes on opening ...help?

What can I do to get this working?

Move your iTunes app to the trash using this Terminal command: please copy paste it or make REALLY sure you didn't make a typo.
sudo rm -R /Applications/iTunes.app/
Then re-download and install it from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
In the future, use Software Update to get a newer version of an application, instead of copying it.

I'm using Windows 8. After a recent update, iTunes is crashing when attempting to connect to the store. Have tried copying .dll files to no avail.

I have tried following all instructions, including setting up a new user account. There was still a problem running in safe mode. I'm at my wit's end trying to preorder an album.

Updated itunes 11.2 crashes after opening

So, I recently updated my itunes when prompted to the new 11.2 version from 11.1.5, and afterwards it no longer opened without crashing! It would bounce, open for a few seconds, and crash. Before this upgrade I have never had a problem with itunes, which I've been using for years.
I tried uninstalling, restarting my computer, and installing it again. Read through all the forums I could find but no one seemed to have much else to suggest other than deleting and doing it over, which I had already done. Then I even upgraded to Maverick 10.9.3 because someone said that had worked for them (I had been operating on 10.6.8). I love Maverick, but itunes still has the same problem!! Only now I can't uninstall it to try a re-install because it says it "itunes cannot be modified or deleted because it's required by OS X". When I try to re-install anyway it says there's a newer version already installed and won't go forward.
I tried running disk utility, and saw itunes did need a permission repair, so I clicked repair, but I'm not sure anything even happened. It just ran and ran and then stopped running. I did that about 10 times but itunes still won't open. It just bounces, opens for a second, and crashes again. Mocking me.
Please help! What have I not done yet? Or what am I doing wrong? Or how can I delete itunes and run again?
Would running it Safe Mode do anything?
Thanks

Scott, that's a fair question! I incrementally made those adjustments over about 8 or 10 attempts as iTunes would crash not long after starting up.
When I would turn on iTunes, I could see on the "home page screen" that is was updating Genius and somehow I also noticed it was syncing or downloading Podcasts. I had already deleted the Sync Services Folder and emptied the trash, yet it kept crashing. I also would try and "x" out the Genius progress bar to stop it, but not long after it would crash. So on another attempt, I started trying to "turn off" Genius via to the Store pull down menu . It would appear to turn off, but by then iTunes would crash. And when I restarted iTunes I would see Genius try to update or sync all over again, whatever it does, and I would check the Store pull down menu and Genius was still on.
The next thing I tried was after turning Genius off, I shut down iTunes, hoping to "Save" the setting as off. I think that was how I succeeded in shutting off Genius.
In a mix of adjustments I also turned off what I could with the Podcasts.
It's been six hours now with no crashes, and I played a big high def movie file via ethernet out of my Mac Pro to Apple TV, so my iTunes 11.2.1 is basically in good shape.
Good luck to everyone.

ITunes keeps crashing and won't let me update to ios 5 + many more problems with iTunes

Here is alist of all my problems:
Whenever I try and sync my iPhone     to my computer it doesn’t work and then my iTunes crashes, there are no     error messages it just freezes and crashes.
After I have done this my iTunes     doesn’t even open and crashes strait away.
My iTunes also crashes     sometimes when I am just trying to move from (for example) music to     movies.
My iTunes also refuses to     access iTunes store (no errors it just doesn’t work).
Sometimes I can get past the     backup issue by cancelling the back up and letting it sync, but no it won’t     even let me do that it freezes and crashes before it can even transfer my purchases.
All thishappens if I can even open up my iTunes.
I amcurrently running ios 4.3.4 as I can even update to ios 5 I am running (tryingto) iTunes 10.5.
I have trieduninstalling and reinstalling iTunes about a 1000 time and it hasn’t doneanything (done as instructed on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923). I havebeen trough tones of pages on the community and on the other support pages thatapple has but I have found no answers. I have also tried to install an olderversion of iTunes but it just comes up with an error message saying all myfiles are configured to iTunes 10.5 and noting work on that either.
This hasbeen going on for ages and I know there is a lot to deal with in this post butplease if anyone has any ideas, knows, or has dealt with any of the above please help.
Thank you

I am having the same problem. I'm wanting to update to iOS 7, the 'Update Now' button is available, but it says I can't download due to no Internet connection. I DO have an Internet connection, but either way it won't let me update. Help!

How can I deauthorize iTunes on my PC that doesn't have iTunes installed (crashed with latest update)?

I'm retiring my old PC and want to deauthorize my purchased iTunes library (over 1,000 songs) but have a problem. The last time I tried to update iTunes on the computer, the installation crashed and iTunes was removed. My music is still there. I just can't figure out how to deauthorize the computer without using iTunes. I've tried reinstalling iTunes several times and always get "Error 7" with further instructions to try again.

You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. Otherwise you can "deauthorize all" from your iTunes account.
Open iTunes on a computer
From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only use this feature once per year.
After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes allways crash and stuck i made some troubleshoots like reinstall again but nothing and my itunes is update and the system is windows vista home premium.Please help me...

Syncronizing my 3gs with itunes the sync does not finish because itunes always crash and stuck and i can not sync my device, i dont no whats wrong because the itunes even can not acess itunes store, still loading waiting for itunes store and nothing.I tryed reinstall itunes but just waste of time.
My itunes is update, iphone 3gs 4.3.4, system is windows vista home premium.
Please help me.

I also have the Mcaffe security centre so on the face of it we have very similar situations and I had not problems.
You asked what I meant about saving the installer on your PC.
When you go to the iTunes download page:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
And click on download, you should be offered the choice of running the installer or saving it. You need to click on save and then choose a folder on you PC where you want it saved. But I think you already did that.
After the installer file - iTunessetup.exe - is save on your computer, you double click on it to run it.
It's very odd that the installer fails at different stages. usually when the installation fails, it is at a specific stage and usually generates an error message.
I am afraid I am mystified. Have you had any other problems with your PC which might suggest a general problem not specific to iTunes?
The only other suggestion I have is to download a fresh copy of the installer - in case it got corrupted. You could also try using "run as administrator" to run the installer. It should be an option if you right click on the installer file.
The other thing it might be worth trying is to install it from another account, but you would need to create another administrator account if you don't a;ready have one. Or if you have another account that is not an admin account, you can temporarily promote it from the control panel>>User accounts.

During a error updating, I had to reinstall iTunes. When proceeding to install iTunes, the installer chooses M:// I dont have a M drive, I click change and the iTunes installer crashes. I've tried everything, help!

Seriously no idea whats going on, and I'm usually pretty good with figuring an issue
Heres the isse:
When updating iTunes, after the restart I booted up iTunes and it crashed. I was prompted with iTunes had been updated incorrectly and to uninstall and reinstall iTunes. After downloading the installer from itunes.ca. I opened up the application, and clicked Next. Under the directory it says M Drive, I dont have an M drive at all, I click change and a prompt pops that says, "The volume M:/ is currently unavailable. Please select another." with "ok" being the only selection.
After hitting ok, it says "itunes installer completed" "Errors occured during installation before iTunes could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To complete the installation, run the installer again. Click Finish to exit the installer." Finish is the only selectable, and upon restarting the installer the same thing happens. I hope theres someone who can help me out with this.

New Itunes update causing Ipod crashes

Since installing 10.6, Itunes has now regularly crashed when my Ipod is plugged in, leading me to have to force quit after giving it ample time to right itself (which it never does). This of course has wiped my ipod down, even tho DiskWarrior and Disk Utility recognize the drive, tell me its ok, and has the correct number of files, etc. But whenever i try and open Itunes, it crashes, tells me my Ipod is corrupt and needs to be restored, which I do. Then it works fine for a while, but then a day or so later I will plug it in and kapoof, nothing on my ipod, itunes hangs up, and so on. Its been going on for a couple weeks now, and I have tried rolling back to Itunes 10.2 which I have on my Time Machine backup, but it makes it laborious as I have to import the text files of my playlists one at a time, and being that i have a hundred or so playlists, i just give up.
I have done all the permissions correcting, rebuilt directory on my ipod, done various wipes of the drive, and so on, and I am out of ideas. Anyone else have this problem or any solutions?

meh. i am tired of itunes. there is my solution. uninstalling it once and for all, as it is a memory hog and has always given me problems when i update it, and so forth. never had these kinds of issues with it, but i need my music and need to be able to listen to it, so that's my solution. thanks.

Should the advice above not fix things for you...
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.
