Itunes freezes when I connect Iphone, please help

**mikesfacts2** · 10-09-2007, 01:11 AM

Hi,
Every time I connect my Iphone Itune's freezes and I have to use ctrl, alt, delete to end it. This makes it not possible to load any music onto my Iphone. My Iphone is running firmware 1.02 which I have loaded Ibrickr on and have unlocked. I unlocked it to work with at&t (i know stupid) So i didn't have to pay for a data plan I didn't need at all. Ive tried everything I have reinstalled it. Cleaned my registry, I even did a system restore 2 weeks back before Itunes started giving me problems. Nothing worked. When I put the Iphone in restore mode it Itune's doesn't freeze, but thats useless. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

# Uninstall iTunes
# Swap the data cable into a empty USB port ( do not plug your iPhone in)
# Reboot
# Install iTunes 1st and run iTunes
# Plug-in your iPhone to the data cable.

P.S. To clean the WinXP Reg I reckon you use Registry Mechanic 7 (do this if you like, after uninstall iTunes and then reboot your PC)

Hope this help!

you can uninstall and itunes you have and remove any stuff from registry (regedit) and then install a older version, say 7.3.2, then connec iphone

I have had a similar problem and one thing you should check which resolved the problem for me was I found that Logitech has an application called "SetPoint" (installed if you use Logitech Mouse/Keyboard) which if running seems to conflict with iTunes in some way and freezes my iTunes when I plug in my iPhone, when I shut the "SetPoint" application down in the system tool bar and then restart iTunes and plug in my iPhone everything works fine. Hope this helps others

I'm having the same problem and I have tried all the above methods. It did it on the older itunes then I thought maybe going to 8.x what fix it, nothing. Jailbroken or not jailbroken, it still does it.

well i hope this helps out, but here are some things i did and after completing itunes worked fine:

added the mipatch replacement for 3.0 (it goes by another name but replaces mipatch for 3.0 fw)

reset sync history

deleted all but one backup

btw all this was done with the iphone unplugged

i had sam problem too man. i got around it by uninstalling itunes turning my computer all the way off and on. the reinstall itunes and it worked for me. let me know if that helps

also try moving your usb to the first usb slot when i had it on the right side of my laptop usb it wouldnt work tried three times but i moved to to the left side front and wahlah it worked

**ribbitt** · 06-25-2009, 01:22 PM

I tried all sorts of things; uninstalled and re-installed itunes, removed all backups, removed podcasts, .. nothing helps. This is my first and last buy from Apple - stay away from these junk makers!

I've admittedly had this issue myself, but just unplugging my network cable, doing what I need to do via iTunes and then plugging it back in works as a temporary solution.

Eh, my PC's overdue for a format anyway. I'd be kidding myself if I reckon I can hold off until W7 retail.
