3 Weird Problems! (really slow syncing, explorer crashing & skipping songs)

Ok guys, i have 3 weird problems with my iTunes 7.6. also had these problems with older versions too. I'm using iPod Touch 16GB edition. I'm using windows vista and have 2GB RAM and Core 2 Duo 2.2GHZ CPU.
1: First problem is that every 9 out of 10 times that i open iTunes, my windows explorer crashes and restarts, but iTunes doesn't open. after the windows explorer has successfully restarted, then i try to open iTunes again & it works fine.
2: I have USB 2.0 connections on my laptop. iTunes used to copy music to my iPod fine before, but recently it has been copying really slow. It's not just the music, but also the videos. Before it would take only about 3 - 5 seconds to transfer one song, now it may take as long as 20 - 30 secs. And yes all the songs are MP3 formats at 128 - 256kbps and 4mb - 5mb in size. For example i'm copying 2 videos right now to iTouch (682MB & 672MB) for the last one & a half hour and it's only copied about 75% now. Videos were already converted to MP4 format before being imported to iTunes.
3: I have lots of MP3 discourses which have very low bitrate (16kbps mono, 10MB - 12MB), and my iTouch skips them completely after about 10 secs and starts playing next file, but if i quickly forward to half of the file, they seem to run fine from there, but may skip near the end or after another 5 minutes of playback. it's all random. but they run fine on my pc. this problem is only with low bitrate files. Is there any fix for it without converting the file to higher bitrate? because these discourses are hours long and it will take a lot of space.
thanks guys, any help would be appreciated.

Hi Definitely is not the amount of data you hold ( i have 1TB of movies and video songs). My advice do a full restore to the ATV and start fresh with the computer. It is only what I will do.

  • Intermittant problems with slow motion and crash of Premiere Pro

    Many complain about Premiere Pro's instability.
    Since a couple of days I have the same problem. Every time I want to navigate from A to B, Adobe seems to either introduce a severe SLOW MOTION effect on it's own accord, that I never put in !!!, or it just CRASHES with an error message along the lines "Problem, Try again" or similar.
    This is utterly frustrating !!! I have been trying for over 6 hours today to get this remedied, but no luck.
    Looking back over the past days, the problems seem to have grown exponentially both in frequency and in duration.
    Of course, this is not about the program, but about the Premiere Pro Forums.
    Is there a 300-day refund period for Jives???
    I suggest you use that opportunity Adobe. This is

    OK, that makes sense.

    2. Nothing happens, just waiting for Adobe and even after 30 minutes, still waiting.

  • Touch Wont Sync calanders or podcasts......really slow syncing etc

    Hi Guys,
    My 16gb iPod Touch on my macbook pro wont sync calanders it just hangs....i left it over night.....nothing.....i reset the ipod......nothing.......i re installed itunes......nothing it simply wont work and crashes everytime it syncs when it gets to the calanders??????
    Also it wont sync podcasts?
    Any Suggestions?

    I have had this problem too....
    Tried everything in the books, reset, restore, recreating my library etc etc....
    nothing....
    Now my music is on my G5, so I tried to sync it to my macbook (intel), and after puttng a few songs in the intel library I connected the ipod touch... sync just fine...
    So something is telling me that it is a software issue not addressed on non-intel machine.
    saying that Just before plugging the ipod back on my power mac, and leave it there all week end to sync I tried to purchase a song from the ipod... Great experience....
    I then plugged it to my power mac....
    it is syncing much faster....
    try and understand that one....
    Cause I don't....
    Saying that the song I purchased on the ipod doesn't appear in my computer library...
    As much as I love Apple Product and have been for a long time, I must say that this ipod touch feels rushed...
    Not sure if this issue is shared with the iphone... not that it would make a difference to us...

  • My iPad 2 is really slow and app crash every time after IO8 update.

    After the IO8 update my iPad is no working well. too slow and crash constantly.

    Sorry, downgrading is not supported. I'm running it on an iPad 2 as well and it certainly is not as snappy as it once was.
    Look into background app update, background app refresh. Notifications, not just in the notification center but in the apps themselves as well
    also  look to closing unnecessary programs. Double tap the home button. Flick the previews for any unneeded apps up and off the screen then single tap the home button to exit the mode.

  • Some games are really slow and even crashes

    For example: I can see the main screen on games such as Cytus or Candy Crush, but when I get into the actual game it crashes. For games like Rayman Jungle Run or Infinity Blade the fps is extremely low. Does anyone know why or how I can fix this? Thanks. I have a 4th gen iPod Touch and it is in iOS 6.1.5

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.

    - 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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Adding files from external HD is really slow (30min for 7,000 songs)

    I have finally mangaged to add files to my laptop from my external HD (which by the way shift+loading itunes never worked for windows) but loading 7,000 songs takes about 30min. Is it because I don't have a high speed USB on my laptop? My USB from my 250gig external has a 2.0 USB. Could that be the reason?

    USB 2.0 is "high speed" USB (480 Mbps). If by chance you are using USB 1.1, then yes, file transfer is going to be dreadfully slow. I couldn't see any information about your PC in your profile but... if you are using USB 1.1 OR if you have an older hard drive (slow RPM and write speeds) you are going to bottleneck. You did mention that you have a laptop; laptops (even newer ones) often use slow drives (4200 RPM drives are common.) A NICE thing to do for read/write speeds is to upgrade your laptop's hard drive to a 7200 RPM drive. You can do that for around $100.00 via newegg.

    Then, I started in Safe Mode and still there was poor graphic? video? performance, I understand that it shouldn't be perfectly smooth, but there was weird flashing, crashing and stuff. Photo:
    You can see some of it (it's from Safari, but for example Launchpad is even worse). It's like that all the time in Safe Mode. I don't know if that's normal.
    And I did SMC reset again, but it also didn't help.
    Oh and apps often crash when I first start them, but then, I repeat action and they open.
    Funny story, Mavericks should improve performance, better video memory and ram, but I'm experiencing completely different story.

  • IPod touch 4G being really slow???

    Is my iPod touch 4th Generation White 32GB just getting old? My iPod is becoming really slow and is crashing a lot! Is it because of my A4 chip becoming "Outdated" and does this mean I just have to upgrade my iPod touch 4G to a 5G?

    The 5G is better since it has a duel-core processor and twice the memory, 512 MB vice 256.
    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.
    - Double click the Home betton and delete all the apps from the recently used dock
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My Macbook Pro is running really slow and programs keep crashing

    I have a 15" MacBook Pro (Mid 2010 Model) that is doing my head in, as it runs really slow most of the times as soon as I open more than one program (especially if I use Excel or Word of course). I ran the EtreCheck and the result is below, hopefully this will help some of you guide me in the right direction?
    Most of my memory (over 200GB) is used up by "OTHER", any idea what that could be and how I could easily free up space?
    Thanks a lot

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.
    When you post the log extract or the crash report, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "The message contains invalid characters." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the text on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

    You have nearly run out of disk space.  Either purchase a larger one or start cleaning out the one you have?

  • Ipod classic 160GB very slow sync and cannot connect to itunes store windows 7 ansd itunes 10.6.0.40. I have now been trying for 3 weeks to restore my iPod. Really frustrated, any ideas would be welcome.

    Ipod classic 160GB very slow sync and cannot connect to itunes store windows 7 ansd itunes 10.6.0.40. I have now been trying for 3 weeks to restore my iPod. Really frustrated, any ideas would be welcome.

    Cured the problem! Reinstalled an earlier version of itunes from oldapps.com (version 10) now everything works as it should. I would suggest that if you are experiencing these problems that you do the same. I must say that it is a brave business decision on behalf of apple to effectively lock out all windows 7 users from their products and sales channels and I can only wish them luck in this very shortsighted policy.

  • Help! Windows Explorer crashes regularly when using "SharePoint" directory synced with OneDrive for Business

    We are using SharePoint 2013 and I want to sync document libraries with
    OneDrive for Business with my PC running Windows 7.
    In general, it works, but my Windows Explorer crashes very often (after a few minutes) when I navigate in the synced directories and open files there (or copy files into them in Windows Explorer).
    How can I find out what happens and how to avoid it?
    remark:
    We are still using Office 2007, so I installed only OneDrive for Business from the Office 2013 DVD and
    deactivated all other components like Office 2013 by hand:
    (so for example, the shared office feature or MS Info Path etc. were not installed)
    Is there a crash log, where I can find more information about the crash?
    Does OneDrive maybe need other components to be installed and can I install them without damaging my existing Office 2007 setup?

    Did  you check your Event Viewer for any errors during the time when Windows Explorer crashed?
    Thanks for this hint!
    The Log file says the following, so it seems to be WIDCOMM\Bluetooth Software\btncopy.dll
    to be responsible for the crashing Windows Explorer

  • Firefox becomes really slow then eventually unresponsive when loading a page with many hires images. Unsual high memory usage up to 2gigs just for firefox. Was never a problem with v3.6.

    When loading a page with many hires images, Firefox becomes really slow and scrolling becomes jumpy then eventually becomes completely unresponsive. Unusual high memory usage of up to 2gigs just for firefox when loading these pages. This was never a problem with v3.6.

    I encountered the same type of problem. Firefox running terribly slowly and slowing down my entire machine (Core i5 with 256GB SSD). Searching the forums, I found a couple of things about troubleshooting performance issues, one of which was to use '''hardware acceleration''', that is on by default. It was turned on on my PC, '''so I tried deactivating it, and it worked!'''
    So doing the exact opposite as Mozilla support said solved the problem. It is really a pain now to work with Firefox. I'm using it because I have no choice, but I'd recommend IE and Chrome over Firefox... Whatever, the market will decide once Firefox has become to crappy...
