Why my itunes keep hang on syncing backup?

I had tried all troubleshoot but i still having trouble with my itunes.
I cant sign in to Itune store & when I tried to sync it keep hang on part 2 ( backing up )

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Why does iTunes keep giving me bogus error messages. "Your internet connection is not working, check your connection and try again." My internet is working fine. iTunes is not working and will not allow me to download tunes.

Itunes keep crashing on sync with ipad

itunes keeps crashing on sync with ipad. Eveyrthing was good up until the 5th of june. any ideas

If you have tried 1, 2 & 3 below, next thing I'd try is call Apple support at this link: http://www.apple.com/support/expert/
Or you can take it to an Apple store to see an expert.
1) Deinstall and reinstall itunes on the computer.
2) On the ipad, Press and Hold the Home and Wake Sleep buttons until the Apple Logo appears.
3) If that doesn't work, try a reset, To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.

Why does Firefox keep hanging, crashing, sulking, dying when internet connection behaves?

Why does Firefox keep hanging, crashing, sulking, dying when internet connection behaves? Once it renders the page it should forget about the page. Why does it behave when some link is clicked when there is no internet? It should just say internet not available or some crap. Why die, sulk, crash?? I don't get it! 3 series was much much much better!

I should add, I've re-downloaded Firefox, but that doesn't look like it has helped any. Still get seemingly inexplicable crashes.

Why does itunes keep dropping my devices and files

Everytime I set my iPods asides for a few weeks and then reconnect them to iTunes they will not sync. iTunes flushes all the content I've loaded from CD's <1,000 songs plus audio books. iTunes wants me to re-register and reload everything. This has appened three times in the last year. It happens on both my Windows and OS X machines. I have an iPod Touch and an iPod classic. ITunes refuses to allow me to keep both devices and computers in sync. Before I spend the two plus days to reload again I would like to know what the heck is going on.

Why? Sony Viao by any chance? That comes with some media scanning software which has a habit of interferring with iTunes when it save files, resulting in a corrupt or missing library. Anti-virus software may also possibly be a cause on occasion.
See this User Tip for an effective backup strategy.
I've also written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this thread for background.

(Mavericks) iTunes keeps crashing on sync "This iPhone is already syncing apps with "%1$S"

I updated my MacBook Air to Mavericks yesterday. When attempting to sync my iPad2 and iPhone4 this morning, iTunes keeps crashing on me.
There seems to be some issues with what it thinks my computer name or my Apple ID is. It keeps referring to them as %1$S
Check out this screenshot on the device Summary page of iTunes, It may be hard to make out the text since the image was resized upon uploading it:
The the top circled item reads "This iPhone is already syncing apps with "%1$S"
The second circled item is the incorrectly sized Check for updates button
The thrid circled item (left) are my Apple ID name and computer name, both referred to as %1$S
The fourth circled item (right) is the text "Do you want to allow this computer to access information on "%1$S".
Is anyone else having these issues after upgrading to Mavericks? Any resolution?

Nevermind, found that there is also an update that Itunes needed this morning to be compatible with Mavericks. After updating all is fine.
Not sure why iTunes update required for Mavericks was not included in Mavericks, but whatever. Hope this helps anyone else who had this issue.

My iTunes keeps crashing when I try to sync my iPhone as well as when I try downloading the newest iPhone upgrade 2.2.1. I just tried to restore my iPhone and once again iTunes crashed (at around 224MB into the download of the upgrade).
I've restarted my iPhone.
Restarted my iMac.
Re-installing iTunes.
Tried installing iTunes 8.0.1 (instead of 8.0.2).
Created a new user to check if that was the problem.
All with no success.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Why does iTunes keep launching?

All of a sudden, out of the blue, iTunes keeps launching when an alarm goes off in the application Alarm Clock Pro (ACP). My wife is a teacher and ever since August 2011 I created alarms to notify her five minutes before the end of her classes. She doesn't know how to change anything in ACP and she doesn't use iTunes. Nothing has been changed but last week every time an alarm goes off iTunes launches.
I've gone through and checked the preferences in both programs and nothing points to this issue. I know, ACP has an option to launch and play something in iTunes but this is NOT selected.
Any help or suggestions?
Thanks!

I thought at one time you there was a setting to prevent iTunes opening when a device was plugged in, I don't believe that the sync option will prevent that.
In your login items, System Preferences/Users and Groups do you have an item "iTunes Helper" I think this is the application monitoring the devices you plugin.
You could try closing that application in Activity Monitor and plugging your devices in and checking if it stop iTunes opening, also check if it stops it opening through the day. If it does just remove it from your login items after confirming it does not impact on other iTunes uses.

Why does iTunes keep asking for my password when I want to listen to my music on my iPhone?

When I want to listen to music on my iPhone, iTunes keeps asking for my password. I am not purchasing anything. It started today. Why is that?

I've been having the same problem on my iPad and iPhone. I talked to Apple customer service this morning. They had me do the following on both devices in the Settings:
* Sign out of iTunes & App Store
* Sign out of FaceTime
* Sign out of Game Center
* Delete iCloud account
They also had me restore my iPad due to some glitchy behavior in the Music app.
Things seemed to me fixed for a few hours until I went into the iTunes Store app on my iPad and added a movie to my Wish List. When I went back to the Music app, the dreaded "Sign In to iTunes Store" popup started showing up again on both devices. Suspicious!
So, I cleared out my Wish List in both the iTunes Store and App Store. I've been poking at the Music app on both my iPhone and iPad since then I haven't seen that popup once since then. I'm not going to declare victory yet since it's only been an hour or two, but I thought that this was worth mentioning.

My iTunes keeps hanging. What do I do?

Whenever i open my Mac and launch itunes, it hangs and wont work. Please what do i do?

The first thing you should look for is old out-dated software that interacts with iTunes. You'll find plug-ins for those apps here:
Mac:
/Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
Just pull them to the desktop and test again.
More info about plug-ins here -> iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins

HT2534 Why does iTunes keep

I am trying to update my apps and iTunes keeps asking for my security code on my CC. I enter the new info and it still says invalid. Help

Hi, vcharisse.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are receiving an alert that your connection timed out when restoring. This usually means that there is a USB or security software conflict. I have attached a couple troubleshooting articles that provide solutions for this issue.

Why does iTunes keep sending songs to trash, even though I haven't deleted them?

There is one specific album in my itunes library that itunes (on a daily basis!) deletes 4/5 songs from. It almost always deletes the same songs, I just don't understand why this would be happening? The only time I realise is if I happen to scan through the trash before emptying.
Theres no alert regarding deletion or consolidation of files, in fact there have been times where some of these songs are on a playlist and when the playlist goes back to the start, some of these songs can't be located again, and are in the trash folder again.
I should clarify that I keep my itunes library on an external harddrive, although I don't see how this would affect it.
Has anyone else come across this problem before, and more importantly found a solution?
Thanks,
Daryl

Turns out it was firewall related. Even when I turned the firewall off and rebooted, it didn't help. I finally had to uninstall Avast antivirus, and then everything worked great.
To anyone else who has this issue with Avast and iTunes/Bonjour, I also found this thread that might be worth trying:

Why does iTunes keep deleting music from off my iPhone

Ok so my music from iphone keeps deleting itself. I keep having to restore this dumb phone only to lose my information days and sometimes hours later. This is the final straw for me. I've restored this phone 20 times in a week! Im tired of dealing with all of these technical issues so when my contract is up I'm done with this thing. Is there ANYTHING I can do in the meantime to keep from losing my music.

I'll continue the discussion. I find the item in question. There was an app that I had deleted from my iTunes but was still on my iPhone dspite numerous syncs. I deleted the separately from my iPhone and no longer received the warning message described above.
Now however, when I delate an app in iTunes not only does the app stay on the iPhone but I do not even get the warning message.
My next step is to perform a restore. Perhaps this will clear up both this problem and a series of other issues like the wi-fi on/off randomly greying out on the iPhone and having all of my music on the iPhone disappearing after a sync.

My iTunes keeps freezing during syncing and wont let me put any music on. What do I do?

I have a PC and the newest iPod touch. I was receiving error message -54 while syncing recently so i checked on this site and found out that some of my files could be locked. Sure enough I went through all of my files, found and deleted all the locked ones and wiped my itunes. I then kept getting a error message telling me that the sync session couldn't start. Then I wiped my ipod and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times. But each time I try to sync my ipod, itunes freezes and I have to restart the entire program. I am at a complete loss as to what to do. I have tried everything I could, and have had no luck. The program keeps freezing on me and doens't allow me to sync my ipod or my ipad, so it would seem to be a problem with my itunes but I don't know what to do, nevermind how to fix it.

You will lose all of the content on the ipod, but you will have to restore. If you cannot then follw this:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
