Itunes freezes on the last step when i try to sync my iphone. There is no error message.

Every time I try to sync my phone itunes freezes on step 6 when its copying the new info to my phone.I have tried deleting and redownloading itunes and I tried to restore my phone but it keeps telling me the session has timed out. I am in the process of getting a new antivirus to see if that is the problem eventhough I doubt it is. Please help I dont know what else to do.

That would work fine, but my device does not show up on my itunes..
I've tried everything

How can I prevent iTunes from downloading the last podcast when I subscribe?

When I subscribe to a podcast RSS feed iTunes instantly begins to downoad the last podcast in the feed. This is in spite of the Podcast Settings default being set to Do Nothing. I have installed many versions of iTunes and they all did it so the answer cannot be to reinstall.

Same issue since Mavericks.

Itunes freezes at "finding purchased items" when syncing itouch!?!!?

So I bought an Ipod touch 3rd generation from my friend about 4 months ago. it was working fine and syncing with itunes perfectly. then, about 2 months ago i updated my itunes to itunes 10.2.2 and that was a total mistake. i would open itunes and it would run slow, then when i tried syncing my ipod it would always freeze at "finding purchased items" and i had to force quit every time. i figured i would just wait for another update. now, a couple months later, ive updated to itunes 10.3.1, in high hopes that it would work. but still, nothing. it continues to freeze at "finding purchased items" I've tried to sync my old Ipod nano to the same itunes library and it worked fine! it's just not working with my itouch!!!
Ive read up on it and done all of the following:
Deleted ibooks
Sync from back up
Reinstall itunes
Restore itunes
Made a new library
Turned off home sharing
Manually synced music
Unsubscribed to podcasts
Allow it to attempt to sync overnight
And many more things!!!!!
And just now i tried syncing it again and now it began freezing at step 2:preparing to sync!
the ONLY conclusion that i can come to is authorizing my computer. Since i bought the ipod off of my friend we decided to share an itunes account so that i could purchase stuff using her itunes account. since i got the ipod i HAVE made many purchases using her account. but when i tried authorizing my computer to her account it says something like "this account can only be authoorized to 5 computers" the problem is, i really need it to sync to more than 5!?
This has been going on for too long and now its getting extremely frustrating for me. I am a teen and I would love to listen to the newest music! so this is a real problem for me. Someone, PLEASE HELP!!!!! AND FAST!!!!!!!!!!
-Ipod touch 3rd Gen
-Windows
Screenshot of how it froze just now.....

i just found out how to deauthorize all computers. i deauthorized them and am re-syncing the ipod now-hope it works!

I just chnged the password on myipod.Now when i try the new password it doesn't work,and when I try the old password it doesn't work.I know how to unlock it, but the last computer i synced it with isnt working so there's no way for me to get my stuffback

So changed the password on my ipod touch this afternoon, and eversince then the password is not working. I keep trying the old password and hen the new one but none are working. I know there is a way to unlock it, but that would delete all my stuff and the last computer i synced my ipod to is broken, so ther'es now ay for me to get my things back. Could i have made a mistake when entering the new password?

Could i have made a mistake when entering the new password?
It's entirely possible. And it sounds like you already know what needs to happen in order to correct it. I'm afraid you won't be able to salvage any data that hasn't been included in your latest backup of the device via iTunes.

I loose both sound tracks of the last chapter when burning a movie to a disc in iDVD

I loose both sound tracks in the last chapter when I burn a project to a disc in iDVD. The sound tracks are there if I play the movie in iDVD before burning to disc, but as soon as I try turn burn to disc the original sound track & the sound track imported from iTunes disappears in the majority of the last chapter.
I'am using the latest version of iMovie & IDVD. The project in iDVD is listed as 96 minutes & 3.9GB & I'am using an LG single sided DVD 120 Min 4.7GB
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi
May be something here.
No audio on DVD disc.
Most common origin.
1. Imported audio from iTunes.
• In iTunes copy out as an Audio-CD .aiff (Same as played on standard Stereo CD - no .mp3)
• Use this in Your movie project
2. Low - Free Space on Start-up/Boot/Internal/Mac OS Hard disk makes it hard for iMovie to work as intended.
Down to 1.3 GB and it doesn’t work - especially audio don’t migrate over to Media Browser
(iM’08 & 09)
3. Material in iMovie’08 & 09 - Shared to Media Browser and here selected as Large
large.m4v. It silenced out this project in iDVD. By making a slight alteration - provoking it to ask for a new Share/Publish to Media Browser and here selecting 640x480 - and audio was back when a new iDVD project was created including this movie.
Minuscular - - 176x144
Mobile - - - - - 480x360
Medium - - - - 640x480
Large - - - - - - 720x540 960x540
HD - - - - - - - - 1280x720
4. Strange audio formats like .mp3, .avi etc.
• Change them to .aiff. Use an audio editor like Audacity (free)
5. Main audio is set to off in System Preferences - Does this by it self - Don’t know why
Cheque Audio-Out resp. Audio-In
6. Ed Hanna
Had the same problem; some Googling around gave me a kludgy, but effective fix
Downgrade Perian from recent versions back to version 1.0.
That worked for me, and so far I haven't encountered any deficiencies — except it takes more advanced versions of Perian to enable QuickTime to handle subtitles in .srt format — that I have noticed.
7. GarageBand fix.
In this set audio to 44.1 kHz (Klaus1 suggestion)
(if this don’t work try 48 kHz - me guessing)
Before burning the DVD.
• Do a DiskImage (File menu and down)
• Double click on the .img file
• Test it with Apple DVD-player
If it’s OK then make Your DVD.
Burn at x1 speed.... (or x4)
• In iDVD 08 - or - 09
• Burn from DiskImage with Apple’s Disk Utilities application
• OR burn with Roxio Toast™ if You got it

Reset all settings
Erase All content and settings
Reset Network settings
Etc
Even
Reset location and Privacy
It keeps showing the problem

Log-on freezes at the last step

Hi,
We use BPC 7.5 NetWeaver version SP08.
We have noticed that occasionally some of our end users are experiencing the following problem:
When they try to log on either through the Planning and Consolidation for Office Client or through the Planning and Consolidation Administration Client the log-on process freezes at the last step where the connection bar is shown i.e. after they input their credentials and press Next button.
It should be stressed that this problem appears occasionally and only on specific end usersu2019 PCs.
I would very much appreciate any help.
Thank you in advance,
Mike

Hi Roberto,
Thank you very much for your prompt response the issue seems to be very close to what is described in notes
· 1624426
· 1664394
Unfortunately We have tried both notes i.e. our Administrator verified that port is 80 and we have tried to use the ‘DNS-hostname:80’ and the problem still occasionally appears (I stress occasional and from specific end user’s PCs).
Any other ideas?
Thank you in advance.
Kind Regards
Mike

ITunes freezes for 60-120 secs when connecting iPod

This is weird. I have iTunes 7.6.1 and OS X 10.5.2.
Whenever I connect an iPod (my wife and I have three between us), iTunes freezes with the spinning beachball for anywhere from 60 to 120 seconds, sometimes longer. At times, when I try to drag a podcast or something over to an iPod, it won't "take"--it's not on the iPod in any of the menus. If I try to do a sync of all podcasts, for example, it freezes completely and even trying to force quit won't do anything.
I've deleted the plist files, but no luck. Any ideas?

It sounds like a hardware problem is messing with iTunes communicating with the iPod. I'd suggest the easy stuff first. Switch USB ports, switch USB cables, reset your iPod. If you are connecting via a USB hub try connecting directly to a USB port on the computer. If the iPod is still in warranty you can take it to the Apple Store or call Apple Care.

Why is my iPhone 5 freezing since the last software update?

My iPhone 5 started to freeze after the last software update for iOS 7.1.
It started shortly after when I noticed my timer would freeze and I wouldn't be able to turn it off once the alarm sounded at the end. Usually I can reverse the freeze by pressing the off button.
However, this morning I visited several webpages embedded in emails and after about the 5th webpage, the phone locked and the last webpage I visited lightly flashed and kept recycling. Pressing the off button didn't help this time. I finally plugged it in to recharge and after an hour or so, it returned to the normal menu settings after putting in my password.
The problem seems to be getting more frequent.
Has anyone else had problems with their iPhone 5 freezing?

Thanks for the suggestion but I tried that first and it didn't bring up the apple logo as it should have.
I haven't tried "restore" yet but I guess that will be my next move when it freezes again.
(Several friends have mentioned their iPhones are freezing now too after the last software update so this problem could get bigger.)

Can not connect the iTunes Store, since the last update 2 weeks ago, iOS 6.1.2 has stopped working, help me, please ....

can not connect the iTunes Store, since the last update 2 weeks ago, iOS 6.1.2 has stopped working, help me, please ....

Ok, I am having literally identical issues with Marathon Max.
I try to connect, and it says, "Itunes could not connect to the itunes store, Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I have contacted my ISP, and they ran a full check, and sayed I should be able to connect to pretty much all websites. I did the whole "ipconfig" thing and that was no help. I also tried the "msconfig" thing, and it sayed it did not recognize it as any kind of command, internal or external command or operable program or batch file. Whats strange is I can connect from another computer just fine, but when offered to upgrade itunes I declined for fear of the same thing happpening. I am tempted to just upgrade it and thus demonstrate that itunes has a flaw in their upgrade. I will save this computers diagnostics, and the other one's too, before and after the upgrade. I look forward to sending more feedback regarding this matter

The last time I synced my iphone with itunes, I lost all my contacts, photos, calendar, and voice memos. This time I lost all my apps and the music isn't synced. Also, I just bought an ipad, and it won't sync at all.

Re: That garbage is unreadable.
If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

I have all my songs in my iTunes library on the computer, but when I press the button to sync it, it doesn't put the songs on my iPhone. I have songs from my iPod on here too. How do I get it to put the songs on my iPhone?

Have you selected the music to sync?

I recently purchased a new PC. I had backed-up my old computer on Carbonite, so I was able to transfer my iTunes library to the new computer when I downloaded my info from Carbonite. Is there a way to restore my playlists?

Most of my playlists are on my iPod. If I use my iPod to transfer, will the songs double in my library? Also, how do I do this?
Thank you for any & all info you can provide!
Julie

If you had backed up and restored your library properly you should have ended up with the playlists too. Did you import the media folder from the backup drive into a new library rather than restoring the entire iTunes folder?
