Windows 7 within iTunes 12 stops working when sync iPad

I am at my ends wit. I have spent 3 days trying to solve this, without any success. I have really time better off than sorting stupid software problems. (Someone had a great rant, so I won't rehearse it - but it seems to me that if
there is an issues, it should at least give some clear of what the software stops!!). It seems to me that no one (NO ONE) is owning this problem There are plenty of people who have the problem, and although some suggestions, it looks to me that
there are just that - suggestions.
I have posted my problem on the Apple forum. I have not heard. But it seems to me that we (I) don't even know if it is an iTunes or a Windows problem. and now I have no idea which way to go....
Rant two ends. The problem:
I have windows 7 SP 1. iTunes 12.0.1.26. I can imports CDs and play music. But when attempting to sync,"iTunes has stopped working". It stops (usually) step 6. No doubt many of people have seen the issue. I problem have
not attempting to update since updating iTunes 12. (On the side, I have not been able to update iTunes without deleting and reinstalling it for some. Accordingly, I update with some concern, and only updated to 12 because I installed a new (different
laptop), and wanted to keep the same levels.
The steps I tried
Sync iPad Air (iOS 8.1). Failed.
Tried to sync iPhone 5S. It stopped. I then looked through the apps etc in the phone. I noticed, that my photos were not being synced (I had an issue with memory issue some months ago - now sorted - and so checked resynced them.
Tried again, and worked. Hmmm. (iPhone is at iOS 8.1)
Made changes with the apps etc on the iPad to recreate the same good result. No success.
I deleted iTunes etc (in the correct order) and reinstalled. No success. tried a number of times. (one of the definitions stupid is to try the same steps expecting a different result)
Searched google, apple and microsoft pages. Read them all. No one seems to have a clear answer to the problem, let alone the solution.
Backed up iPad, and restored iPad. No success - and now, of course the thing is now in a totally uncertain state. It won't ask for sync, but if iTunes starts, the iPad carries on.
Deleted and reinstalled iTunes etc. No success. Tried again (and again? - I have lost track)
Someone suggested going back to iTunes 11.4. Tried that (once sorted out the library files have been changed). Now, same result. (it all worked happily previously)
Tried a hard reset on the iPad. No luck
Discovered one post suggest that QuickTime may be a problem. Deleted iTunes and Quick Time. Reinstalled iTunes. No success.
Discovered turingtest's post "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows" . Followed the steps, including deleting the folders (only Program Files (x86)/common files/apple were there) and turned off AVG. Same bad result.
Status:
I am thoroughly out of sorts. And it is Tax time, which improve my temper.
iTunes 12.0.1.26 installed. iCloud installed
windows 7 SP1. The PC is not asking for any updates.
Qucktime not installed
iOS 8.1.2
iPad is probably useless, until problem solved - not all photos or apps downloaded
HELP!!

Itunes stops working when syncing my photos on my iPad2

The last couple of times I've tried to sync my iPad2, iTunes stops working while syncing photos. What is the problem and what is the solution?

I just got a new HP Win 7 64x Intel i7 computer, installed the latest 64x iTunes etc and tried to move my iPad over. It will synch everything except for photos and videos; it gives the error "iTunes stopped working, program will close" when I try to synch my photos. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall etc. to no avail, it just keeps doing the same thing.
I went back to my old computer 32x machine and successfully re synched and put my photos back on. This seems to indicate that the problem is either with iTunes compatibility with the version of Win 7 on my HP computer or with the iPad compatibility.
Anyone find the solution to this bug?

Get error, iTunes has stopped working when sync iPad

when sync iPad in step 2 Get error, iTunes has stopped working

Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

Itunes stops working when syncing

I am changing from AT&T to Verizon iPhone 4S and everytime I plug either phone to sync with iTunes, iTunes stops working and shuts down.

I have also had a similar problems with iTunes and Vista. I believe it is because iTunes 7 isn't completely compatible with Windows Vista; it only works with XP or 2000. I finally got my iPod to sync after a couple of tries and restarting the computer, but it still usually crashes. I think we'll have to wait until Apple makes a new version of iTunes that is compatible with Vista!

ITunes stops working when syncing iPod 4

We have recently been having problems with our iTunes, with it not opening yesterday so we had to uninstall iTunes and all Apple related programs.
I've tried syncing my iPod Touch 4th gen with iTunes on our laptop (Windows 7) but when it gets to the stage of finalising transferred items or something alike (stage 8 of 8) an error message pops up and I am forced to close iTunes.
Why is this happening?? Please help!

Itunes stops working when copying apps during Sync

Hi I am using Itunes 12.01.26 on a Windows 7 PC
My library is saved on a nas server and the network drive is mapped.
I have an ipod 5 and Iphone 5s
Up until october this configuration has works a treat however since about October I have had difficulting in Syncing.
I cannot sync my music - everything i try fails so as a last resort i have tried to restore my devices.
Itunes stops working when it gets to the stage of copying the apps.
I have read a suggested solution to move the library to the local C drive but this does not seem to be reasonable solution particularly as my library is large.

Same problem here with Win 7 64 bit & iphone 4. It all started a few weeks ago with itunes upgrade 10.4.8. After about 20 hours wasted time, uninstalling and re-insstalling all Apple products in the suggested order as suggested on another forum. Still had the same problem. Will sync fine until I check the "videos" tic box. Itunes stops working in the step of "optimizing photos" (????). If I go back and uncheck "videos" tic box, iphone4 will sync just fine. BUT now all my videos previously on my iphone are on the PC. I would like them back on my phone!
I gave up and went to the Apple Store to visit with a Genius. Took my PC and everything with me. It was not from lack of trying, she did all the same stuff I did and checked everything over. Could not fix it. She said it appeared everything on my PC was set corrrectly and the problem was probably with itunes. Said she always waits a little while when updates come out to make sure there are not bugs before putting them on her stuff. Lesson learned.
I hope with Steve Jobs gone, this is not the future of Apple

When i sync my phone itunes stops working when optimizing my photos. why

when i plug in my phone to my computor to sync, itunes stops working when it gets to step 5 optimizing my photos . why?

Did you try to delete teh photo chache? Photo Sync creates iPod photo Cache
Is there enough free space left on the phone? iTunes needs up to 4x the space to sync the photos than the actual size of the photos to be copied to the phone.
