    Whenever I connect my iPod into my Laptop, it freezes iTunes (not Laptop), and installs an Apple mobile device driver, then a window pops up and says that my iPod is connected and do I want to browse the device like an external Hard Drive etc, but it freezes iTunes, and there is no iPod shown in iTunes either. It shows up in devices as an Apple Mobile device, and it still charges the iPod. This problem started after I tried installing some new software called "Doubletwist" which is an iTunes alternative, but I found that I could not transfer music files back to "Doubletwist" on the Laptop, so I have since uninstalled this "Doubletwist", now I have no iPod Sync, and it freezes iTunes 9.0 this will teach me not to mess with this again. I am using Windows 7 which was working great with iTunes, any ideas what I can do?
    Thanks in advance.

    I have this same problem. I run on Windows XP. Whenever i sync my iPod iTunes just won't open and will stop responding. Then, when it is finished syncing iTunes works fine...Any ideas?

    Same problem here, but I'm not sure what the solution is. iTunes for Windows is a bloated piece of crap. I usually just wait patiently for it to finish doing whatever it has to do.
