Why does my iTunes open for a split second then close?

This has been happening since I downloaded iOS 7 and it's doing my head in!

I had the same problem but just fixed it. I also have the 5.
1. Close out all apps.
2. Sign out of your account. *Do this by going into "settings," "iTunes & App Store," click "Apple ID:______" and "sign out."
3. Lastly perform a system reset. Do this by pressing and holding the lock screen/wake button atop the iPhone along with the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds. Wait a minute or two for the phone to restart, and try opening the app. It should be good as new.
Good luck.

HI danny!
sorry you got no response last time. PPLE post and post and post and before you know it, your thread is buried six feet deep under other threads.
Ok, so you described your problem to me. I think its a particular malware program thats going around and it causes exactly what you described. BUT, because you do have Nortan 2005, its QUITE possible that is the culprit. Norton and itunes dont play nice together. Norton thinks its a malicious program and blocks it from opening. Its a pain, i know, but First, try turning OFF norton before you launch iTunes and report back to me about what happens.
Cheers,

Calendar app will not open up,was working just fine since the latest up dates.go to open calendars ,it opens for a split second the closes down.tried rebooting,shutting down,ext,still does not work.

Hey there just a short update I recently read an article on the community's webpage about sometimes asking cause your new download apps can cause some problems with calendars I had recently downloaded a weather app called AccuWeather for life version 2.1.2. I decided to remove this app from my iPad then proceeded to close my iCloud connection to calendars restarted and found that my calendars now open up except I had no information of course from my calendar appointments I proceeded then to reopen under link to iCloud and it now works. Have noticed that that the AccuWeather app had put on some weather notices for a couple of weeks in the month of November for some strange reason so I will now delete all of those temperature warnings on calendar and retry installing the weather app again to see what happens, will update this forum later.

- Try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
-Next try downloading/installing a free app. Others have said that works.

Hey there mcsafranek,
It sounds like you are getting prompted for your iCloud password very frequently. I would sign out of your iCloud account in Settings first:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
From: iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Then close all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that and restart the phone, sign back into iCloud, and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists could you relay what exactly the message says when it pops up?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

I have an Ipad 2, I recently downloaded IOS 7.0.4, now when I open up Safari to search the internet it will come up for a split second then dissapear and take me back to the home screen. So it wont even let me search for anything.

So can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? I cant surf the web because as soon as I click on the Safari icon it will pop up for a split second then dissapear and take me to the Ipad homescreen. This happened when I downloaded the IOS 7.0.4. I have the IPAD 2.

The terms of service of the Apple Support Communities prevent us from helping anyone with a jailbroken phone.
You're on your own. Good luck.

When I turn on my iPhone 4S the apple logo pops up for a split second then the screen goes black but the phone itselfs boots up just fine???

I tried replacing the screen with no luck. The same thing happened with the new screen. I replaced the backlight coil and the backlight ic and still have the issue. I don't know what else could be the problem. If the battery is completely dead and I plug it in the "charging battery" symbol shows just fine during the entire time it is charging, but as soon as it starts to boot up the apple logo shows for a split second then the screen goes black. The rest of the phone still boots up just fine. I can use SIRI, press the lock button like I'm about to use my phone and slide my thumb across where the "slide to unlock" would normally be and it will make the unlock noise just no picture display. I am pretty tech savvy when it comes to repairs and all of the connections look fine, replaced backlight coil and ic, replaced LCD/digitizer, tried a restore, tried a DFU restore, multiple hard resets, but I am at a loss as to where to go from here. I had dropped the phone and put a minor crack in the screen but the phone worked just fine for a couple months after before this started to happen. The phone is still under apple warranty but apple won't cover it because Apple is stating that it is "caused by the crack in the screen." But being a repair technician I know that is not the case... Good one apple. So I took it upon myself to try to determine the REAL problem. Anyone with a little more knowledge have any ideas? Any suggestions are appreciated!!

Yes, I understand that. But The screen issue is not a result of user damage. The phone was not dropped when the screen got cracked. My daughter was standing in a chair at the table and dropped one of her toys onto the bottom of the phone and cracked it right by the home button. (Nowhere near the LCD/digitizer flex cables, connections, or logic board components) then a few months later my phone had died, I plugged it in, it showed it was charging, then Apple logo disappeared and screen didn't work. AFTER contacting Apple about the issue and them telling me that it "is a result of the very minimal crack to the sheet of glass that has no relation to the LCD or Digitizer and that the warranty does not cover it I had taken it upon myself to change the LCD/digitizer to no avail, as well as backlight ic and backlight coil to no avail. But how do I go about letting Apple know that it is in fact NOT due to the cracked screen nor is it due to the flex cable connections? I can't. So the lady that works the call center phones trying to "convince" me that she knows what she is talking about and "convince" me that it is from the cracked screen I have to take her word because I can't show Apple that its not because of that without paying them $199 to fix the screen in which case they will just send me a new phone rather than fix the faulty hardware under warranty.

Iphone 6 stuck on Logo screen with flash of screen for a split second then back to logo screen :(

I purchase my Iphone 6 Roughly a month ago.

I have not done any updates since purchase. I have tried the power and home buttons together and simotaneously with no result PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi ptina78,
As someone who uses and depends on my iPhone on a daily basis, I know I would be upset if my phone did not start up properly. Let's see if we can get you back up and running. If your iPhone is not completing its startup sequence and you continute to see the Apple logo on the display, you may need to reinstall the iOS operating system on the iPhone. This article tells how -
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
Specifically -
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sincerely,
Brett L

TS3297 I can't download apps on my phone after entering my password it shows downloading for a split second, then goes back to available. Works fine on of

G'day I can't download or update apps on my phone ( on computer is fine ). After entering password it shows downloading for a split second then goes back to being available. It's a new recent change & I can't see anything wrong with my settings on the phone

Howdy Aussiebloke17,
It might be worth attempting a restart of the iPhone, and then a reset, should that not resolve the issue.

If the iPhone is still not properly downloading apps, you may want to try restoring the iPhone.

Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

TS3274 I can't delete mail nor can i open the Settings. It opens for a sec and then closes. any ideas?

Mail closes when I attempt to read or delete messages
I can't open the Settings. It opens for a sec and then closes. any ideas

First try to reset your device by holding the home and power button for about 30 seconds until you see a silver apple, after that let go of the buttons and let your device start up normally. This will not remove any settings or information from your device.

HT4623 I downloaded the ios 6 on my iphone. I'm having problems with applications. When I open any application, in seconds then closes and returns to the home screen. What could be happening?

Did you change any AppleID accounts or anything? I've seen this happen when changing accounts or certain restore situations.
If you are using iCloud you should be able to reset your phone to Factory Defaults and restore from iCloud, but it always makes me nervous.

Why does my iTunes open for a split second then close?
