Why does Itunes encounter a problem and stops every time I try to sync my home videos - help please

Why does Itunes encounter a problem every time I try to sync my home videos - it just won't sync them - help please !!!!

Re-installing iTunes wont erase your folders, unless your iTunes is a very old version pre-iTunes 9 series.
I would suggest to download the latest iTunes, it would solve your problem as in this earlier  post

  • Why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor?

    why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor? it only works if i turn the computer on with it already plugged in.

    Do you have gfxCardStatus installed?  Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete".  You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC

    Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
    Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
    Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.

  • Why does iTunes invite me to log on every time I launch it?

    Why does iTunes invite me to log on every time I launch it? It never used to do this. How can I stop it ? When I open the app I usually want to just listen to the music collection I have in it, not download anything or buy from the store.
    How can I stop this default ?

    I have checked and it isn't.
    This never used to happen, but I suspect something changed at the last iTunes update.

  • Why does Itunes keep freezing up and stop working?

    It is kind of getting old but my Itunes player (does not matter which one as I update to the latest version) has this nasty habit of freezing whether I am trying to listen to the radio or my own library.
    It is now happening almost every time I use Itunes and when it freezes the only fix is to do the old Control-Alt-Delete.
    I am running a 64 bit Window's 7 home premium and prefer using Itunes but you know if you does not work get something else
    I have 4 GBs Ram with a 2.6 Dual Core Pentium

    Just out of curiosity when you say iTunes sent you here, do you mean that there was a link to here in the iTunes application, or that someone from Apple sent you here?
    There are lots of posts from general iTunes users on this forum so I'm curious to know if/how people are being misdirected.
    Thanks

  • Why does "message to _________ deleted" come up every time I try to text a certain person?

    Why is the only thing I recieve when I send a text to my friend "Message to _______ deleted"? I don't understand why it's doing that?

    It may be that your messages are set to automatically delete the messages after they are sent. Go into message then under settings   look to see if it says auto delete and change the program.

  • Is anyone else getting the " itunes encountered a problem and needs to close " message on xp

    is anyone else getting the " itunes encountered a problem and needs to close " message on windows XP

    I did get a "server busy" message when I loaded quicktime, but I'm not sure if it is related or not since I've been seeing that over the last couple of days, I can't remember if it came before iTunes stopped working or not. That message reads "This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Choose 'switch to' to activate the busy program and correct the problem." My options then are to choose switch to or retry. When I press "switch to" my Start menu opens, and nothing appears to happen when I select retry.
    that's an odd sort of a message (or series of messages).
    hmmmmm. let's try an experiment aimed at working out if there's a program interfering with the QuickTime (which is in turn causing grief with your iTunes).
    try a selective startup using MSCONFIG, with just the itunes and QuickTime background processes enabled, as per the following document:
    Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
    does QT open without the strange message after the selective startup?
    does iTunes launch properly?

  • "itunes encountered a problem and needed to close" - help plz

    I've been using itunes for a while but when my sister got a new ipod she wanted the upgraded program so i downloaded the new program on top. It worked until we rebooted the computer and since then it would come up with an error. Afterwards, I uninstalled the program and reinstalled itunes 7.0, but when we went to open the program it said it couldn't read the itunes library, so i then deleted those files and now instead it says "itunes encountered a problem and needed to close" whenever i try to open it. Can someone please tell me what to do?

    wanpedro I tried what you suggested but have again got nowhere.I tried to uninstall QuickTime it just wont.I uninstalled iTunes & reinstalled it with QuickTime from Apple website.I'm back to where I was with the error message
    "iTunes & Quicktime have encountered a problem & need to close tell Microsoft about this problem" When one does that there is no feedback from MS With Qucktime uninstall a message says Fatal error on installation.

  • During iPhone 4 update or restore, "iTunes encountered a problem and needs to close." Help?

    I have the latest version of iTunes, version 10.3. Every time I try to update or restore my iPhone 4, iTunes crashes and gives me the error message "Itunes encountered a problem and needs to shut down." I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and Quicktime, but no dice. My phone is stuck in a recovery mode loop, and I need to restore it in order to fix it because tinyumbrella, iRecovery, iReb, and RecBoot all didn't work. It just boots back up in recovery mode again. I need to get my iTunes fixed so I can save my phone. Please help.
    Here is the error signature:
    AppName: itunes.exe        AppVer:10.3.1.55     ModName: msvcrt.dll
    ModVer: 7.0.2600.5512     Offset: 000372e3

    No, no luck. I went to the Apple store to get my phone out of the recovery loop, but iTunes still crashes whenever I try to sync it or download any large files. I was lucky to get my backup of my phone put into the phone so I didn't lose all my contacts and everything. All I know about the error message is that it has to deal with there being a problem during iTunes interacting with that .dll file. Either the file is corrupt, or the latest version of iTunes works with a different version of that file. I can't figure out how to fix it.

  • Why does iTunes freeze up for minutes at a time when modifying INFO (CMD-i) ?  My files are not corrupted after it is done like many other threads i have readed.

    Why does iTunes freeze up for minutes at a time when modifying INFO (CMD-i) ?  My files are not corrupted after it is done like many other threads i have readed.  Sometimes it's changing the title of a movie or editing the season and episode number of a TV show ect.....

    Yup same here
    I am running the latest iTunes, the latest updates to the OS and on an iMac 3.4GHz Quad core i7 with 8GB of RAM and the music stored on local HDD.
    Still locks up iTunes for between 2 minutes up to 20 minutes.
    Really annoying.
    If you find a fix please, please let me know, I have just been throwing hardware at it with no joy at all
