McAfee is my AV, but I turn off the AV and Firewall pieces each time I try and launch iTunes (each time as administrator). Shame on Apple for having such a crappy piece of software, that causes no end of problems, for performing the relatively simple function of managing a device(s)! I’ve been doing IT work for many years and have never come across anything like this, and apparently I’m not alone, as there are a ton of others in the same boat. No piece of software should cause this much grief! It won’t work again until you reboot, even if you kill the running iTunes process that’s doing nothing. It works perfectly before you launch iTunes, and stops working the second you try and launch iTunes. One thing I have noticed is that flash stops working the instant you launch iTunes. I have tried every single thing that I’ve read on the Internet related to this issue (and there are a bunch of ideas and complaints), including everything in the list above, and nothing changes!! You can leave it all night, and it never starts. I launch iTunes, get a 2 second blue spinning donut (Windows 10 with all the latest updates and patches), iTunes is listed as a running process at zero percent CPU usage, and absolutely nothing happens. Why do I need this piece of crap to back up my iPad or iPhone in the first place? Why do I need it to add files to the devices? Why does an OS update completely break my ability to manage my iDevices? These types issues are making me start to consider Android devices, as they are far easier to manage!Īt this point I'm giving up after countless hours of trying all of these "fixes". You can't expect the OS manufacture to change their OS to accommodate a single application - would Apple do that with iOS? No way! No other software has these types of issues! Apple needs to patch this crappy iTunes software to fix whatever changed in the OS update. I'm simply stunned at what a horrible piece of software iTunes is! I love the iPhone and iPad, but iTunes is the WORST!! At this point I'm becoming convinced that Apple is doing this on purpose to get people to buy Mac's because users get frustrated and blame Microsoft.
I've been in IT for many years and have dealt with every type of software imaginable.
I have never seen such a horrible piece of software in my life! I don't care if Microsoft updates the operating system, Apple needs to have a far better development process that doesn't have these types of issues and essentially bricks my iDevices because everything is so dependent on this crappy application! I have done every possible (and documented) attempt to fix this issue, and nothing works!!
