iTunes has stopped working

I have the most recent vers. of iTunes (10.3.1) and it was working fine yeterday. Today, I went to re-start downloading some video lectures from iTunes U and iTunes crashed. Now everytime I try and open it, I get the error message "iTunes has stopped working" and the only option I have is to close the program. I looked around the Apple suppport site and did everything they recommended. ie: Deleting Temp files, Rebuilding the library, opening a new library, creating a new user....nothing worked. So, I uninstalled iTunes, QT, Bonjour, etc, did a registry clean, re-booted and re-installed everything, ran the Apple Software Update. And nothing, I still can't open iTunes. Any other suggestions??? I am running Windows Vista 32-bit.

Your Vista will have been recording some information about those ones.


Go into your Problem Reports and Solutions Control Panel, click on the Problem History, and look for iTunes problem reports that occur at the same time as those error messages. Open the iTunes problem reports and have a look through them. Do they all say pretty much the same thing? If so, paste the contents of a typical problem report into a reply here so we can have a look.

Thanks again.


QuickTime module in the iTunes problem report, but QuickTime Player launches fine.


Doublechecking something from earlier:


creating a new user


iTunes didn't launch either in that new user account? Or was it that it did launch in the new user account, but the user-specific troubleshooting in the usual user account didn't get it launching again in the usual user account?

AHHH! Figured it out!! When my problems started I was downloading some lectures from iTunes U. So this AM, I thought maybe some of those files had become corrupt. So, I did a search in my iTunes library .tmp files and I deleted them all. Now, iTunes works again!! Yaaa!! Am a very happy girl!!


Thanks so much, b noir, for taking the time to help me- I really appreciate it very much!!

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)


Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair".


If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post:

b noir,

I'm having the same issue as Avidgirl but my Quicktime will not open. Anytime I click Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Books, or Apps, I get "iTunes has stopped working." Here is my report.
