Hey all, first of all cheers for reading this..

Everytime i open up Itunes (latest version, osX, Pbook G4), it opens up and then 'unexpectedly quits' after 3secs max of being open. How can i stop it from doing this? Its really frustrating.

Thanks all for any help,


Andrew
 
Hi Andrew and welcome to the forum.
Go to home/Library/Preferences and delete 'com.apple.iTunes.plist'. Now try to reopen itunes. Good luck!
 
Hey Zammy-Sam, thanks for your advice.. Sadly it wasnt successful! :(

After Itunes updated the files it 'unexpectedly quit' on me again. Any ideas whats wrong?



Andrew
 
Post the crash log for the freaks here. For me do this little thing:
setup a new user account and see if the problem is still there.
 
hey all. Heres the crash log. Ill create a new user in the morning to see if that works.

Cheers,
Andrew.

Unless you absolutely require speech recognition and speech synthesis, I would try turning off all speech functions in System Preferences > Speech and see if that solves the problem.
 
The speech tab in system preferences was set as "off", and i also logged into another user and itunes did the same as before - loading up (with the rainbow mouse icon) and then closing on me.

any other suggestions?
 
Do you have an iSight? If you do, unplug it directly from your
Mac and use a firewire hub for it instead. If you don't have an isight, then I am sorry to say that something in your Core Audio in Tiger is messed up.
 
I wonder if it has been triggered by my ipod..? i dont see how thats possible though. Also i believe (from my basic understanding) that its only an itunes problem; not a audio problem - because ive been using QuickTime as an alternative...

What should my next step be? take it into an apple store?
 
I would try deleting the whole application.

/Applications/iTunes, then delete

~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist

and then

try moving

~/Music/iTunes/iTunes 4 Music Library.xml
 
YESSSSS. i got it back working. First of all a huge thanks to everyone who helped me. I believe it may of been my ipod triggering it all, as i formatted my ipod and re installed itunes (for the 10th time) and it all worked smoothly :)

Cheers again!
