Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

iTunes has stopped working. Why?

iTunes opens but can not access the store. I get the message "iTunes has stopped working". Using iTunes 11.0.5.5 and Windows 7 64-bit. This issue just cropped up, previously everything was working fine. Any ideas?

Windows 7, Windows 7 64-bit

Okay, I'm baking cookies for everyone! I am still learning to use Windows 8 so I was furious when I lost the iTunes store with the recent update to 8.1 and the iTunes update as well. (I did them both on the same day so I had no clue which one could be at fault.) After three days of frustrating online searches, I stumbled across this thread today, copied the files as directed and voila! The store opened right up. I am so grateful to all of you who share this stuff with the rest of us.


And I'm serious about the cookies. 🙂
