Windows will not shutdown when Itunes is active

I recently bought an Iphone, installed Itunes on my Windows XP Pro SP3.
Works fine.
Syncing with Iphone runs OK, agenda, music, photoos, all OK.
But when shutting down Windows, nothing happens (start/shutdown).
That is a new issue, after installing itunes.exe 8.2.23
I have to end the process Itunes.exe (taskmanager, proces, kill process) first.
Then the normal shutdown runs OK.
Any solution other than having to use the taskmanager?

Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

  • IPod will not charge when iTunes in open in Windows 2000

    I have a problem with WIndows 2000 iTunes install where the iPod will connect but as soon as it has finished synchronizing the iPod will go back to the main screen and stop charging. I saw several posts on this with no resolution.
    I dont have a fix yet but I do have a work around.
    Fire up iTunes and plug in the iPOD. It will recognize it and sync. Then select Options and in the iPOD tab uncheck the box which says " launch iTunes when iPOD connects" or something similar. Apply and Exit from options menu.
    iTunes will resync with the iPOD. You can now disconnect the iPOD and close iTunes.
    Now if you connect the iPOD, iTunes will NOT launch and the iPOD will charge fine, at least mine does:-)
    If you now run iTunes it will still connect automatically with the iPOD as before and do all the usual stuff. The only downside to this workaround is that you have to manually start iTunes ( hardly a big deal) and close it and disconnect then reconnect the iPOD ( or just connect it and not start iTunes) for it to charge.
    Works for me.
    There was a lot of black magic quoted on this support site relating to buying chargers, third party or otherwise and USB not having enough power on thursdays with a 7 in the date or having to use a powered hub of a particular color , alien interference etc etc. All bogus.
    Its an Apple software problem and I hope they fix it in the next iTunes release.
    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the info, but I finally found what was the problem.
    It seems to be related to Itunes config and Nano firmware. I found another post talking about this "Topic: Self-ejecting Nano".
    I had to enable disk use in ipod options, but this causes me to manually eject Nano.

  • Windows taskbar not showing when iTunes window at full screen.

    I have my taskbar unlocked so it hides when I am not moused over it. I just downloaded 10.5 and when I have the iTunes window maximized I cannot get the taskbar to appear. I have to press the Windows key in order for it to show.

    I, too, have the same issue with Win 7 64 bit and iTunes 10.5 and I'm grateful to find I'm not alone or imagining this! I'm also grateful for the reminder from DiscoBiscuitz13 to use the Windows key. Love to have a solution to this annoyance but I'm afraid it'll be to revert to a previous version....

  • Itunes store will not open when itunes is started

    New Iphone 4.  Wouldn't run on old Itunes version.  Downloaded itunes 10.5 and locks up when opening the Itunes Store.  Music accessible from old files, but no Store therefore cannot download IOS5 for the phone. 
    Have tried uninstalling multiple times and end up in the same spot.  Have this same issue on two separate laptops, both running Windows XP SP3.
    Help please!!

    Hello there Bob,
    It sounds like the iTunes Store is not launching on your phone when you tap it to try and open it and restarting the phone has not helped. I have a few recommendations for this issue. I would start by closing all the open apps on the phone.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Ical info window will not open when doubleclicking

    Im not sure what the problem might be but when I double-click an event in ical, nothing happens. I used to be able to double-click an event and look at it's detail and edit the event as necessary. Now I have to hit the command-E keys to get the event to open. Is this an ical issue or a trackpad issue and how do I fix it?

    swilli.wa,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    One of the first things to try when iCal misbehaves is to refresh the iCal plist file. You will find the "com.apple.iCal.plist" file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Quit iCal, and drag the .plist file to your Desktop. Log out/in or restart and let us know what happens.

  • Redeem window will not open in itunes

    We just purchased my son an iPad mini and everything went well with the setup but when we go to enter his $50.00 itunes gift card, a new itunes window keeps opening up over and over and over again instead of the window to actually enter the gift card number.  We have tried shutting down completely twice now, and still cannot get this figured out.  If anyone could help, that would be great!

  • New tap window will not open

    ''duplicate - locking - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/783813''
    I've asked earlier bout on Firefox that the new tap window will not open when I hit the open new tap button, but I just seen that it will open when it is forced to open a new tap window by the system..but when manually I still cnt open it @ all

    Although advised not to, I finally hit the reset button in the Save Mode Window. This corrected the problem. I suspect a faulty add-on - I try and reject many. I will add them back on at a time as I develop the need. Thanks for you help.

  • Screensaver not starting when iTunes is running. Works otherwise...

    Hi everyone,
    My screensaver will not start when iTunes is running (also Spotify). When the app is closed, the screensaver starts when it's supposed to (5 min. in my case, but have tried other time limits). I've tried changing mouse settings and even shutting it off to see if that's the cause but it didn't help. I use the MacMini as a home theater computer hooked up to my plasma so I need the screensaver to work. In the meantime, I've been using hot corners to force screensaver, but I would love for it to start automatically when music is playing. I've tried rebooting, resetting, but to no avail.
    Has anyone else had this issue or know what the problem is?
    I'm running MacMini brand new. Mavericks 10.9.1. Latest iTunes.
    Thanks.

    I don't normally use the screensaver. However when I tested it, I get the same results while iTunes is running.
    I encourage you to report it using > Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback

  • Windows 7 not starting when partition is finished.

    I'm using a Macbook pro 15-inch 2011 using OSX yosemite trying to partition windows 7 ( 64-bit ). Whenever I try to partition my hardrive via book camp assistant and the partition part is successful but windows will not start when my mac restarts. I'm using an external cd drive which works. Its reading the disk but it windows simply won't start and I'll be stuck looking at a blank screen with a type symbol on a black screen similar to what you will find in any windows os. Please help.

    You cannot use an external Optical drive. If it is non-functional, you will have to fix it or replace it. This is because BCA sets the boot to be from the internal Optical drive physical address based on your Mac's Model Identifier. This is true for all Macs which have a built-in Optical drive.

  • My iPod 4th-gen charges just fine in any wall outlet, but when connected to my brand new ASUS Windows-8 laptop's USB 3.0 port the charging process just keeps "blinking" on both the iPod and the laptop and will not connect to Itunes...

    Hi, I HATE to ask for help with this, but I HAVE looked everywhere and Google searched different wordings and have not found anything similar nor a solution to my problem!                                                                                                                                                                                                                               My good old iPod 4th-gen charges just fine in any wall outlet, in any house, but when I connect it to my brand new ASUS laptop that has Windows-8 and 3.0 USB ports using the charging/data cable, the charging process just keeps "blinking" BOTH the iPod and the laptop and it will not connect to ITunes and I get "A Device is Detected" message that keeps popping up and going away over and over right above the Windows desktop toolbar.                                                               When I go to control panel and select "Devices" it does show the iPod, but for only a split second and than it disappears, but than it comes back again for a split second and than it disappears again and just keeps doing that over and over and over!                                                                                                                  I have tried resetting the iPod while it is plugged into the laptop by holding the power and menu buttons, that did no good.                                                             I also tried uninstalling iTunes and any other Apple stuff listed and reinstalling it all, that did NOT work!                                                                                          The iPod, the laptop and iTunes ARE all fully updated!                                                                                                                                                                I AM using a brand new charging/data cable that I just opened up an hour ago (I've learned to keep a few brand new ones around at all times since these piece of garbage rip-off cables hardly last a week, even when you baby them!). I also tried a few old cables, they all do the same thing!                                                       I would like to get this piece of junk to connect to my new laptop, even if only once, so that I can change/delete some songs and transfer a few dozen photos,since I haven't been able to do any of that stuff since my old laptop (that NEVER had any problems connecting) died way back in May! lol.                                                                                                                                                                                                 I hope somebody knows a fix or solution! Thank You!

    No, it does not.  It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer.  The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

    Are they selected to sync?  Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

    What does that have to do with syncing content to the device?  FYI, nothing.

    the problem started when my computer screen broke from something falling on it, the screen was replaced but the people that fixed it for me told me there may be some hard disk issues when a problem like this happens, they ran their own checks and found nothing and i was given my laptop back, then when i tried to use it, i found this problem. everything else works fine.
    i have shutdown and re-started my computer multiple times and i have also re-started finder multiple times, both having no effect
    i have also done a few other things to find that my apple.com.finder.plist and apple.com.sidebar.plist are both missing, and are not re-creating themselves, i have found no way to bring them back either.
    any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks
