Why is my iTunes & Apps freezing?

When I try to access my ITunes and Apps window my ipad freezes, I can't access some of the Apps I've downloaded, has anyone out there had the same problem? I've had my ipad for almost one year but this has only started happening.

Try This...
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 for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
If the issue persists...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Note:
Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use..

Why can't iTune Apps download to my Mac Mini and MacBookPro?

Why can't iTune Apps download to my Mac Mini and MacBookPro?

Because those App's are for iDevices like iPad's and iPhone's.
For Mac App's, you need to go to the > Mac App Store.

Why has my iTunes app frozen? The screen has been unresponsive for several days now.

Why has my iTunes app frozen?
To begin with I thought it was restrictions on the country I was visiting but since retraining home it has not recovered.
The app opens and the screen is animated, but there is no response to my touch on any part of the screen.

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the iPad forum.

Why does my iTunes / App store go to the German version when I travel in Austria?

Since I updated to iOS 6 my iTunes Store and App Store are both going directly to the Austrian stores. I am in Austria at the moment travelling. But how come I can't change back the Canadian stores? I think someone dropped the ball on this one.

No, go to "settings", "iTunes & App Stores" click on your "Apple ID:" should be some type of email address. Then hit "View Apple ID". Once you sign in w/ your password, hit "country or region" (even if it already shows the correct country) your basically reverifying. I'm guessing since you updated while on vacation your locations services were on thats why it changed countries. Anyway follow the steps update your payment info (you will only need the security code for your debit/credit card if it stayed the same). And you should be good!
Good Luck !

Why is my iTunes/App Store just blank?

My iTunes/App Store is just blank with no pictures. Text shows up fine but clicking on buttons like "Buy" doesn't do anything. I can still download updates for apps that i already have though, which is weird. This isn't just happening on my Windows computer but also on my sister's Macbook, all of our iPhones, iPads, etc. I did try solutions suggested by other people like resetting my iTunes cache or updating my various software and services, but since the issue isn't limited to just one computer, the issue must be much larger than that. It isn't my Apple ID either since I tried the IDs of my other family members as well to no avail (we live in the Philippines so use the Philippine store).
Any ideas?
This issue started 2 weeks ago and I haven't been able to get any response from Apple support engineers other than that I could pay for one to call me and try to solve my problem. It's pretty silly considering that I want this issue resolved so that I can continue to purchase apps and music from them to begin with.

This is also my problem. It started last week for me. There are no "music", "movies" tabs on top and there are no pictures of albums, movie posters etc. When I tried buying songs, I click on the BUY button but nothing happens.

Why does my itunes keep freezing and give me the rainbow wheel of death?

Whenever I am doing stuff on my computer it will randomly freeze up and I am almost positive it only happens when iTunes is open and playing. I have a lot of free space on my hardrive even though I have around 6000 songs and a bunch of movies on there. I just downloaded a bunch of games form the app store too that could be taking up space. Please let me know if you can help!

what model year make computer do you have what os are you on how much ram do you have?
go to launchpad (yeah I said it) utilities> system information.
on the left hand side, hardware should be highlight and you will have all the information you need to give us.
Feel free to exclude your serial number. you can do so in preview. But it doesn't really matter, and it would be nice to have a reference of it somewhere should it ever get stolen. it your choice.

ITunes apps freeze when updating

Within the last week or so there is an issue with various apps on iTunes where I try to download the updates on my home computer, but just as it gets to "processing file" it freezes. Then I cannot even quit the iTunes program - I have to Force Quit to get out. Any suggestions?

Go to folder "downloads" in iTunes music folder which is the temporary downloads folder for Tunes itself.
If there is any item within (as a leftover from a former download), delete it.
Delay gone.

1. Quit iTunes (if not possible, then force-quit)
2. Delete every folder under here...
~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Downloads (Note: The "~" character, tilde, refers to your Home folder.)
3. Start iTunes and start your downloads again.

The correct file path for OSX Mavericks is:
~/Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads/
In my particular case it happens when updating Apps, and stick in "processing files" steps. Once stuck it needs to be Force QUit to clear it. As to the folder location, that depends on where you havelocated your iTunes data. Your preferences set to open up the iTunes folder. In my case that's, ~/Music/iTunes_xxxxxx/iTunes Media/Downloads
The "xxxxxx"'s are a date code of the itunes data files installation.
Regardless where it is located, this deleting of the items in the folder may solve it. Be aware that you may be asked to validate your Apple ID again and verify any age restriceted content. You can monitor the progress of the downloads by click in the little box on the top right of the itunes menu. However in my case it did NOT fix the problem. Updates downloads continue to hang. You can see where downloads create the .tmp files/folders but seem to stick on many items while completing others. No rhyme or reason to it that I can see.
Also Pause All no longer works!

Why does my iTunes window freeze and wont close until i shut my computer down, when the "iTunes is not the default media player" message appears? and how do i fix this? i just want to fix my music, but it freezes and i can't use my computer correctly.

when i plug my iPod into my computer, iTunes opens as normal, but for a while it's been giving me a message that says "iTunes is not the default media player" and after i 'tried' to do that, i'll close the settings window and my iTunes window will freeze and not close, reload, or anything. and if i "open drvice to view files" that window will freeze too, the internal storage window. i can't get iTunes to close with ALT+F4, or right clicking the tab on the bottom of the screen to close it, or clicking the 'X' button. the only way it closes is when i shut down my computer. please help me fix this. Its getting Really Really tiring having to restart my computer over and over.

Why does my iTunes always freeze when a device is connected?

I am running the latest OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 and iTunes 12.1.0.50. Every time I try and connect a device to iTunes the colour wheel appears and iTunes freezes. This has happened on an iPhone 5, an iPod Touch and an iPad Mini. This problem only occurred after updating to the Yosemite OS X and iTunes 12. Prior to then everything was working fine. I was hoping the latest updates to both would have sorted out my issue but they didn't.

Howdy SheppBoy,
If you are having an issue with iTunes becoming unresponsive when you connect a device, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
