Itunes responding slow?

Ipod touch 5th G is 2 days old. itunes is incredibly slow on it- I push to "pause" or "change songs" and it doesn't do what I touched for 5-10 seconds. Only with playing music is it slow. Any ideas?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

In Task Manager, does firefox.exe show in the '''Processes''' tab?

'''Safe Mode'''
You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

Can't recover songs and itunes very slow

My computer crashed and had to be totally restored so I lost itunes and everything. I downloaded it again and proceeded to try to sync with my nano. First of all, itunes was running way slow...so slow that I thought the computer was freezing but its not. Itunes is the ONLY program that this happens to. When I plugged my ipod in it said it wasn't synced with this computer and gave me two options to sync it, both of which would have pretty much wiped everything off of it.
I did some digging and found that I needed to get some software to pull the songs off of my ipod and put them back in itunes. I opted for Media Widget and it worked very well. It pulled all of the music off of my ipod and put it back into itunes. When I synce my ipod with itunes it started uploading the songs as expected but then I started getting messages similar to "this computer is not authorized to play (name of song)." I started looking into it and it is all of my purchased music from the itunes store. Its all in itunes but it won't upload to the ipod. So I thought I'd just create a few audio discs from the purchased playlist and then rip them into itunes and remake the playlist. Nope, itunes won't let me burn those songs to a disc, either.
So, I'm frustrated and a little angry that I can't get music that I paid for back onto my ipod. Anybody have any suggesions? Also, why is itunes running slower than molasses in January?

It seems I just needed to do a bit more digging. All I had to do was to authorize my computer in itunes and it loaded all of the songs to my ipod and everything is working again with the ipod. Itunes is still painfully slow and I can"t figure out why. It's the only program that runs like that and it was pretty slow even before my computer crashed. Anyone have any suggestions?

Is it just me, or is the iTunes Store slowing down?

Seriously. Does anyone else notice that download speeds are getting slower? I do...

I just bought all of the season of Psych since all the HD seasons are on sale for $16 including the current season. Downloading the first episode alone which is just under 2GB i going to take 89 minutes today
Again it's Sunday though, most likely a high volume day for iTunes so slow speeds are going to happen.

The new itunes is slow and I can not see my musics anymore. How can I have my musics listed like they were before?

I have the same problem with new 11.0. Presentation of album data now seems scrambled in 'Album' screen. Instead of albums in alphabetical order with all album tracks I now get albums in the order of the Album Artist. Unless the album artist is EXACTLY the same, the tracks on any one album can be spread all over the screen (hopeless for compilations). Does anbody know how to get the Album screen to sort solely on the Album title?

Apple TV iTunes super slow downloads

I've had my Apple TV for a couple years. Never had a single problem. I use it to stream movies & video from the iTunes store, Netflix, Hulu, Vimeo, etc. I have a fast broadband connection and view everything in 720p HD. It's always worked fine. Instant rentals have been just that... instant.
Just this week, downloads from the iTunes store slowed to a crawl, as if I had gone back to a dial up connection. 3 1/2 hrs. to download a 40 min. show.
I restarted ATV several times. Nothing. I restarted my DSL modem and Airport Extreme. I checked for firmware updates for the AE. All up to date. All in good working order. No network speed problems on any of our Macs or devices in the house. I downloaded content from Netflix, Hulu, etc. via ATV to check if it was a network problem. Netflix and Hulu stream fine on the ATV, just as they have in the past. Only iTunes content is giving me this problem.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a solution?

Netflix adapts to the connection so that wouldn't be a good way to judge.
If you haven't, check your actual speed (www.speedtest.net)
Try to rule out interference, if on wifi, by using istumbler.net

ITunes responded incorrect payment info, yet it was absolutely correct

When I logined to iTunes Store yesterday, iTunes asked me to filled up some payment for security. After I filled up those blanks, iTunes responded me for incorrect info, yet what I filled was absolutely correct. Then, I tried several of times but iTunes contiunely reponsed the same message to me, and I had no idea what was going on. Plz help me!!

Heya. The same thing happened to me and I finally solved it. Try going to https://myinfo.apple.com and entering your account information. On the screen the lists your phone number, see if it states you having both a home and office number. If so, delete your office number. See if this allows you to continue from the spot you were stuck in before.

Apple TV BUG: responds slower and slower until rebooted

Why is this bug still not dealt with?
Apple TV starts responding slower and slower until it is totally useless because it take umpteen presses on the remote before it will even select menu items! Most of the time it won't even respond once it starts acting stupid and slow.
What is going on here? Why does it have problems doing the simplest things?
I have still not received a response from apple as to why this bug continues to go unfixed. It is extremely ANNOYING!!!!
I ALWAYS HAVE TO REBOOT IT BEFORE IT STARTS WORKING NORMALLY AGAIN... WHY?
Doing hardware tests does absolutely nothing to find anything wrong. Obviously there is something wrong when it doesn't respond for half a minute or more!
<Edited by Moderator>

These have been ongoing issues for quite some time. I suspect there are still some cache and/or memory management problems that have yet to be worked out. I recently had to put mine on an HDMI switch and it frequently becomes unresponsive and needs to be reset after I switch back to it from another device, so there are still some HDMI issues as well.
I think it's still a work in progress, but despite the annoying glitches, it performs well most of the time. It will be interesting to see what improvements are made whenever the second generation comes along. Hopefully it will include a reset button and/or a power switch, considering how often it needs to be reset to restore normal functioning.

ITunes responds very slowly to music controls

iTunes responds very slowly to music controls (play/pause, previous, next).
It gets extremely annoying because i am trying to pause a song and this actually happens several minutes after pressing pause on the keyboard

(A) Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings for Wi-Fi, FaceTime, Message, Home Sharing will be reset

You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

Could be over-heating. Try cleaning out the air vents.

ITunes 7 - slow for other people also?

Has anyone's computer gotten slower/delayed since installing iTunes 7?
My iMac G5 seems a lot slower, not to mention the new iTunes itself is really sluggish. It isnt necessarily slow, but compared to the older iTunes, its very slow. Plus the cover art feature takes a couple seconds when scrolling through to load the images (in the demo jobs did his images loaded up really fast - yet he probably had the top of the line everything)
i assume the new itunes is designed to run better on the new intel macs.
anyone else having these minor problems as well?
also, apple needs to bring back the green icon to the itunes symbol, it looked much better. the blue reminds me of the older OS X 10.1 when itunes first came out (wasnt it originally blue back then)
They also need to re-add the spinning hazard icon when burning a disc - it looked really cool.

hey yea my itunes 7 is slow too! when i press play/pause it takes several seconds something even say 5-6 seconds to respond this also happens with most of the buttons how ever if a song is selected and space bar press it will play/pause with no delay, whats gone wrong with the itunes gui i wonder... other wise its quite nice looking and the album art feature is one ive been wanting for a while, also ipod summery screen is realy usefull.
