iTunes takes 10-30 minutes to launch.
Every time I try to launch itunes, it shows up whenever it feels like it. It can take up to 30 minutes sometimes. I only have 1,000 songs and 5 or so playlists. Also, another weird thing that happens is everytime, when it finally does show up, i am required to type in my apple id password to "Sign In To Use This Computer for Automatic Downloads". Every. Single. Time. Both of these problems showed up around the same time. I have the latest version of iTunes. My computer has an i7 processor and 8gigs of ram, so I don't think that is the issue. If anyone could help, or offer suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it; as this is very frustrating. Also, once it's open it runs perfectly.
