Q: ITunes is not responding on my desktop today, anyone else having this problem?

Hello B00cfuss,

Thank you for providing the details of when iTunes becomes unresponsive.  I found an article with steps you can take to isolate and troubleshoot an issue like this (click on the article for your version of Windows):
