When i exit itunes, itunes.exe jumps to 99% CPU useage and eats memory HELP

as the topic says, on my pc, when i have itunes running, and i quit it, if i watch it in my system processes tab, the CPU useage jumps to 99% and it starts to EAT my memory up. Anyone have any ideas on this? After several minutes the process finally quits itself normally, otheriwse i end up ending the process because it has made my computer come to a hault.
Any ideas?

If it's not Kaspersky, maybe it's some other
program.
If you do these MSCONFIG steps, is iTunes OK?
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in
Windows
Nope, still no change.. I even uninstalled Quicktime and iTunes, tried the msconfig troubleshoot again, no luck. Is it just iTunes? My only concern, is that it wasn't like this always. iTunes used to work like a dream.
Now I experience a significant lag when I try to open another application after closing iTunes. Anyway, this is just plain annoying.. but I have an iPod and most of my music is ripped in AAC, so I have to live with iTunes.

  • When I exit firefox it closes the program but it gets stuck in memory so when I open it again i have to kill the process in task manager

    When I exit firefox it closes the program but it gets stuck in memory so when I open it again i have to kill the process in task manager, and it can be right away or I can come back a few hours later and its still stuck in task manager, I am tired of having to kill the processes every time I use firefox.

    Hanging at exit is most often caused by an Extension or a Plugin.

    <u>'''Safe Mode'''</u>
    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted.. help?

    Firefox 3.6.8 and 3.5 (I downgraded to see if that would solve the issue)
    Windows 7
    Intel Core i5
    Flash Player: WIN 10,1,53,64
    When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted. The image turns into lines and sometimes it half of the screen of the video. Examples are streaming MLB.tv video and some vimeo videos. The odd thing is that it isn’t all Vimeo videos. Is this a flash issue?
    The issue does not happen with Internet Explorer which leads me to believe this is an issue with Firefox. I downgraded to 3.5 and the issue still persists.

  • IPhone won't backup in iTunes (Apple Support says it's Windows related and won't help)

    My iTunes freezes constantly and mine and my husbands iPhone's have stopped backing up in iTunes. I get an error when it does go through the process that says "iTunes could not back up the iPhone " 's iPhone" because the backup could not be saved on the computer". Two updates ago, to iTunes and Safari, is when this started happening. Apple support had me do a few things to see if it was iTunes/Safari itself but none worked so they finally told me to get support for Windows. Some of the things I did was Reboot, reset the iphones, create a new windows user account on the computer, uninstall and reinstall all Apple products on the computer. I tried the Windows/Toshiba forums and they seem to believe that it is indeed an issue with Apple's software and not with my computer since it was working fine until an update was done to iTunes/Safari/iPhone.

    Nobody here can help you as we are not Apple. We are users like you. If Apple support told you that it is a hardware problem, then take it in to an Apple store or authorized service provider.

  • Up dated to itunes 10.4 now i get an error and wont open HELP!!!!

    is anyone having this issue? I updated to 10.4 now I can't even open ituns with out and error popping up I even tried to do it again but same problem...can anyone help me...

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Add or Remove programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click Repair.
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things):

  • Even though I have ordered Firefox to clear my entire browsing history and cookies when it closes, it is not doing so when I exit. I have to manually clear the history and cookies each time.

    I am running Firefox 10.0.2 for Linux, and have never had this problem with previous versions. I wonder if it is an issue of Firefox not quitting completely when I close it...meaning it would not clear the history and cookies because it is not technically shut down. This is just a theory, however. Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks for the suggestion. I made sure the prefs.js file had read and write permissions, and since then it seems to be saving my settings and deleting all the information I ordered it to on exit.
    Thanks for your help! This was a minor problem, but it's nice to know that everything is working the way it's supposed to now.

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
    You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.<br />
    Do not forget to re-enable the scanning in your anti-virus software after you are finished with downloading and installing.<br />

  • I bought an iPad air and requested the guy at the apple store to transfer all my data from the old iPad to the new one. But when I got home there was nothing even in my photos and iBooks please help

    I bought an IPad Air a week ago and asked the guy at the apple store to have all my information and documents transferred from the old iPad to the Air. However my iBooks and photos are empty. Please help. Is there something I can do or I just have to go back to the store?

    Using the same Apple id and Password you should be able to download purchased apps without being charged again.

  • The plugin-container.exe is using 100% cpu usage???

    After I open a few different pages or tabs within the pages, the plugin-container.exe max's my cpu usage and the system hangs horribly. It comes back and then hangs again. The plugin-container is reasonable new, because I don't recall seeing it in the Task Manager. Is there a way to fix this?? I know it's related to some apple piece of garbage software that I could totally do without if that helps.
    Thanks

    Plugin-container was introduced in Firefox 3.6.4 to run certain plugins in isolation from the browser, so that when an offending plugin crashes, it does not crash the entire browser, just the tab with the offending plugin. There is information about plugin-container and a method to disable plugin-container in the following article: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
    If you disable plugin-container, your entire browser will crash if a plugin crashes. If you choose to disable plugin-container, restart Firefox to be sure that plugin-container closes; once started, plugin-container remains open until you restart Firefox.

    I have tried to have iTunes re-install but still get the error.

    Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    (The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
    Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
