I am unable to access iTunes from 64-bit computer.

It worked at first but now it does not. I honestly have no idea what to do and I am not able to download or update any music on my iPod. I have tried un-installing the program, and then re-installing it but I am having the same results as before. Does anyone know what's wrong?

iPod touch, Windows 7

Whenever I click on the icon, a circle appears next to my mouse pointer telling me that it's running in the background. Then it disappears. Right afterwards, I get a notification from my computer's action center saying that iTunes has stopped working properly (43 times to be exact), and that a newer version of this software is available for download that addresses this problem.

Fingers crossed, your Windows 7 will have been recording some additional information about those.


First, open your Action Center and expand "Maintenance". Click "View reliability history":

Once the reliability report has been generated, look for Critical events for iTunes generated at the time of the "iTunes has stopped working" messages. Doubleclick the name iTunes in the critical events. (Don't click View solution.)


For example, here's a screenshot of my system showing what to click. (I don't have any iTunes critical events at the moment, so I'm using an Oblivion event to illustrate what we need to do.)

You should see something that looks like the following screenshot (only for iTunes, not Oblivion):
