  • Why does iTunes open every time I try to open a download?

    I know I sound ridiculous, and I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious, but how do I change the default setting (iTunes) for downloads? Every time I try to open a downloaded game, application, or any other media, iTunes pops up to open the item (which is incorrect AND frustrating), and I can't figure out how to change this.

    Dunno. Do you have an example SVG that crashes Illy on your computer?

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.

    Becasue you have not set your preferences in itunes to open when a device is connected and you have set iphoto to open when a digital camera is connected.

  • Why does itunes require me to agree to the terms every time I open it

    Since the last update, every time I open iTunes on my computer, I have to agree to the terms, and then also decide whether or not to share my album info.  How do I get this to stop?

    Update:  I'm having the same problem using McAfee Security.  I found another discussion related to this problem, and it appears that McAfee Security program may be the root cause of the problem.  See the discussion "Why does iTunes delete my itunesprefs.xml." 

  • Why does itunes crash upon opening after the software update?

    Why does itunes crash upon opening after the software update? Everything worked fine until I decided to update this morning and as soon as the computer rebooted, the error message appeared.  Is there anything available to fix this?

    I answered the same question in a similar post.  It's all to do with the wireless sync. 
    I used the following method to stop iTunes from constantly restarting -
    Open task manager
    Select the 'Processes' tab.
    Look for 'iTunesHelper.exe'
    Select 'iTunesHelper.exe'  then click on 'end process'
    Hope this helps.

  • Why does iTunes say "temporarily unavailable" when I try download my "available downloads"?

    Why does iTunes say "temporarily unavailable" when I try download my "available downloads"? HELP!!

    You don't have the typical symptoms that I associate the following issue with (normally the error kicks in just when folks visit the Store), but just in case try gn_id's suggestion from the following post:
    Re: iTunes 11 crashes when opening the store - no error message

  • 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 Match cause iTunes to crash ?

    Why does iTunes Match cause iTunes to crash ?

    My problem is similar.  It began right after I allowed an Adobe update to run.  (Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.45.2 is recorded in my Registry.) Now every single website I try to open triggers a window (see below) and repeats many times.
    It makes no difference whether I "Allow" or not.  I think it runs this window for every flash object on that website.  It is occurring while I enter this post!
    It makes using the Internet MOST challenging.  Surely this is causing major problems for everyone.
    I have IE8 on Windows Vista.
    Here's the text from the message:
    "A website wants to open web content using this program on your computer.
    This program will open outside of Protected Mode. Internet Explorer's Protected Mode helps protect your computer. If you do not trust this website, do not open this program.
    Name:  Adobe Flash Player
    Publisher: Adobe Systems Incorporated
    (Checkbox) Do not show me the warning for this program again.
    buttons:  Allow         Do Not Allow"
    Should I appeal to Microsoft or Adobe for a solution?  Is is possible to install the previous version?
    Thanks for any wisdom.

  • Why does iTunes crashing on iPhone after launch?

    Why does iTunes crashing on iPhone after launch?

    Hey
    First, try force closing the Music app, which you can find out how to do here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5137
    And if it still doesn't work when you try to re-open it, I would then reset the device:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    via: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

  • Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

    OK, so I'm clearly a newb. I thought if I asked a question, it would post, and now I'm being told to post a comment, so I'm asking the same question again. Sorry I sound like an idiot. I'm new to this apple/mac stuff.
    Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

    If you have added the ringtone file correctly to iTunes, it will appear under iTunes 'Tones' library.
    If you don't find Tones library in iTunes, go to iTunes menu EDIT/PRFERENCES under GENERAL tab, check the Tones Box under Library source to display Tones library in iTunes.
    iTunes accepts only m4r file as ringtone and has to be less than 40secs.

  • Why does Itunes sync my purchase transfers to the wrong hard drive?

    I'm running windows 7 with a 64gb SSD boot drive and 1tb data drive. My boot drive is almost completely full. I installed itunes on my data drive and set the preferences to sync media to the data drive as well. I plug in my old ipod to tranfer purchases before an update. The tranfer never finished because it synced all of the data to my boot drive and now my boot drive is completely full and the data is nowhere to be found. I recently had the same problem with it syncing an iphone backup to the same drive, but I found a work around for that. Why does Itunes instist on loading stuff on the boot drive? How can I redirect it? This is simple preferences that should be available to change, but simply aren't.

    Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the Music tap, make sure there are no checks in the boxes labeled "Entire Music Library", & "Automatically fill free space with songs":

  • Why does iTunes think my iPad is a new one?

    When I connect my otherwise happy iPad to iTunes, iTunes says "This computer has previously been synced with an iPad or another iOS device" and wants me either to "set up as new iPad" or "restore from the backup of <my iPad name>". Of course it's just the same iPad I've connected, so why does iTunes not recognise it as such?
    This happened before, and I know if I select "Restore from the backup of <my iPad name>", it deletes and restores all the apps and media content, but in the process I lose all data e.g. progress in games, data and configurations entered into apps etc.
    This is iTunes 10.2.2.12 on Win 7 64-bit, iPad 16GB with iOS 4.3.1.
    Any suggestions what I can do? Even if I have to restore from backup, is there a way I can prevent this happening again?

    I'm having same problem! I tried the trick of unplugging right after the sync begins and the only thing my iPad does is give me a sync failure message and restarts itself. I plug ipad back in and get same message??? I've emailed iTunes support and they have not been able to help. I tried all the standard stuff like de-authorizing/athorizing, checked that my iPad iOS is the latest version (which it is), latest version of iTunes installed (even uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes). No matter what I try cannot get around this message.  I too have tons of app settings/configurations that get lost if I go thru the restore option.  I actually tried the restore option out of frustration, lost all of my configurations AND still get the same message - seems like my iPad is caught up in a loop no matter what I try.  To make matters worse, my iTunes library got lost as all my songs are showing up with an '!' next to each song (meaning it cannot locate the file).  I checked and they are truely missing so when I go to my purchased music all of my purchases show up (all 4000+ of them) however are all listed as 'Downloaded' in the right margin???  My true objective here is to be able to transfer my purchases on my iPad to my iTunes as my iPad is complete as far as all apps/recent purchases.  HELP !!! Thanks

  • Why does iTunes fail to see that I am a customer

    Why has it taken 20 days and iTunes still hasn'tfixed my account?
    Why have I ended up with two iTunes account instead of just one?
    Why are the people running the system so thick that the two accounts created god knows why both belong to the same person?
    Why is the customer serviceso indifferent and off balance so much that it is barely service at all?
    Why does iTunes not fix their system so that they deal with issues once, once only and move to the next customer thereby reducing everyones waiting time.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Have you ever actually bought anything from the Mac App Store? Have you created an iTunes account in the past? Do you have a bank card from a bank in the country where you live with a local billing address?

  • HT1911 Why does Itunes have me logging in multiple times to buy a song? Somehow, my account got disabled now. It also shows that I am logged in....?

    Why does itunes have me logging in multiple times to buy a song? I can access everything else fine, but now my account is disabled for some reason although my password was entered correctly... help

    I've seen a couple of other threads over the last 10 minutes posting similar problems, so it appears to have affected other people as well - the poster on the first thread has now posted again saying that it's now working for him, so you could give it another try.
    Edit : your reply appeared as I was attempting to post this
