Can see iTunes library, YouTube, movies etc but error when trying to load

Worked fine y'day- today I can see everything but when trying to access (play a downloaded show or song from iTunes library) I get an error message and to try later.
I rebooted iMac and unplugged Apple TV (2G) but getting the same message.
What gives? Just updated to iTunes version 10.2.1 btw.

I saw Peetza's thread- I get the same prompt ( "An error occurred loading this content") but unlike him (downloading a movie) i get this for everything I try to access using ATV2 (except Mobileme).

  • TS2972 I can see my library on home sharing but  I can't see the music?,

    Help, I have turned on my homes sharing and can see the library on my iPad but cannot access any songs......my computer is on and signed in.....if I re touch the screen I just get the msg home sharing cannot be turned on....but it is as its seeing my library!

    You are saying that is is seeing your library but you can't play music. Do you see the songs, albums and so on in the library? Did you try closing the Music App completely and launch it again?
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice. Launch the Music app again.
    Sometimes it helps if you reboot the iPad when mysterious problems arise.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • What can be done to avoid getting the following error when trying to delete unused clips he operation could not be completed.  *** -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil

    what can be done to avoid getting the following error when trying to delete unused clips in Imovie 09 "the operation could not be completed.  *** -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil"  I use to get these type of error messages when trying to delete unsused clips from a large event 60 minutes or longer, but now I get this message when trying to reduce a 4 minute event.
    Also, does anyone know if there is a limit to the total amount of space that can be taken up by Projects in Imovie 09
    Thanks for any help

    Zachy,
    It goes something like this...
    Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
    Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever.

  • Apple TV can see iTunes library but can't load content (intermittently)

    I have intermittently been experiencing an issue where the Apple TV shows my iTunes library, but when I select it, no artwork appears for any of the categories (Music, Movies, etc.)  If I select a category, it says it is loading, but never does. It shows the loading page for an extended period of time.
    Connectivity otherwise seems fine. My iPhone/iPad remote apps still find the Apple TV, although they can not select my iMac library separately to play content through the Apple TV the way they should be able to, even though they see the library. My iMac and Apple TV are both connected by ethernet. I use an AirPort Extreme as the router, but the Apple TV has a wired connection through that router. My network/router situation has been pretty solid. I had (different) issues with my 1st gen Apple TV and as part of the troubleshooting for that totally reworked our setup and gave the computer and Apple TV both a wired connection. It didn't help that problem and I don't think it's related here.
    I tried closing and re-opening iTunes, turning on and off home sharing including not pressing "done" as people here have suggested for other issues, and rebooting the computer. I tried with a MacBook Pro also, and I have the same isue. When this happens, it affects the iTunes libraries on both computers. Finally I reset the router and rebooted the Apple TV itself. It then started working again. I'm not sure which of those helped since I did them at the same time.
    Once when this happened to my husband, he just gave up, and several hours later (presumably after the Apple TV and iMac had both gone to sleep and woken up), it worked again without rebooting or resetting anything.

    Hi All,
    Same issue here. Just upgraded (?) from the previous version of Apple TV, to the new Apple TV2. Like others here, my main problems seem to be with unreliable streaming from iTunes 10 on my PowerMac (Quad G5, Leopard OSX).
    My original AppleTV had no issues w/the wireless network, or synching w/my PowerMac.
    The network connection from the ATV2 are fine, and have no issues accessing the Apple Store (for movies, TV shows), or accessing Netflix. The access to the internet from my ATV2 is quite robust.
    My problems are with keeping a constant, reliable wireless connection to my PowerMac, via an Airport Extreme wireless router.
    I have tried multiple restarts, reboots, reset ATV2 to original settings, tried different wireless channels on the Airport Extreme, verified I have Home Sharing properly enabled in iTunes,etc, but no luck so far.
    What I'm seeing is when I access my iTunes on my computer, I can see my library, and then if I start to "shuffle songs" I may get 1 to 3 songs to play fine, but then the music stops, and I can no longer access the music/movies/etc in iTunes any longer. When I then go to my PowerMac, it has lost most bars of signal strength on the wireless network (although all other devices show strong signal strength), and I have to Turn AirPort Off, then Turn AirPort On and I then am reconnected to the wireless network with good signal.
    I then go back to the ATV2, connect to my iTunes, start my music, and then 1-2 songs later it again stops playing, and I go through this all over again.
    It seems as though there is something on the wireless network between the ATV2 and my PowerMac that causes it to lose connection, and I have to manually start again. The problem is that the connection is not robust, and only lasts a few minutes.
    Hope this gets solved soon.
    Regards
    Tom

  • Internal Server Error when trying to load a movie

    Before I visit a friend to solve a problem on her Mac (latest OS and QuickTime installs already done), perhaps you can offer tips on things to look for: Whenever she tries to load a movie file from the Web (either in Safari or directly in the QuickTime app), she gets a "500 Internal Server Error".
    What should I be looking for?
    Lots   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Try a different browser such as Firefox to determine if the problem is with the QuickTime Internet plug-ins and their related settings. (You might also bring with you a functional copy of the plug-ins from your /Library/Internet folder as reinstalling QuickTime can sometimes be a bit of a hassle.)
    Next, Try downloading the movie instead of playing it. In Safari, paste the url of the movie in the Safari downloads window. If it doesn't download, obviously, it can't play. (Assuming its not a stream rtsp:// url)
    Next, pull QuickTime preference and plist files from /Library and her user Library folders, restart, then try again.

  • TS1362 I have a Mac Pro tower, am running osx and iTunes will not work.. It basically just stopped working after having run faultlessly for...years... I can see all the songs, playlists etc, but the progress bar will not progress..it's 'stuck'. Suggestion

    I have a Mac Pro tower am running OSX and iTunes will not work. It has always worked flawlessly. I can see all my iTunes content- my playlists, my songs et cetera, But I cannot play anything. The progress bar is  'stuck'...any suggestions?

    Thanks. I have been using iTunes since its inception and have never had a problem...I'm using the latest version. The progress bar is the bar that moves when you're playing a song..it just won't start when I double click on a song,..have tried quitting, rebooting etc but nothing works. Apple are useless-they have told me twice they've tried to call me 'momentarily', but I've been waiting by the phone, and they definitely have not tried to call...

  • IMac receives message "Cannot connect to Apple TV" - Apple TV can see iTunes library and can mirror with iPhone.

    Hi all.
    I have an iMac (mid 2011) running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 and an apple TV that my little brother just gave me (I believe it's 3rd gen from serial #).
    I can successfully mirror my iPhone 4S with AirPlay, and the Apple TV can see the iTunes lib from my iMac, but when I attempt to connect to the Apple TV from the icon in the tool bar it gives me the message "Could not connect to Apple TV."
    Spent some time on the phone with a really super tech, he had me go through the paces with restarting the router, the apple TV, my iMac, checked all the network config etc - no dice.
    I even reinstalled OS X.... still no dice.
    Has anyone experienced this issue?
    The second tech who called me back thought it might be hardware related. I brought this iMac in for a new hard drive less than a year ago after it randomly began throwing kernel panics and finally it just wouldn't boot. I don't do very much with my computer so it's kind of odd that it would have these issues unless there is something fundamentally wrong with the way it was put together. It doesn't take any abuse - not like my macbook!
    Thanks in advance.

    Had my iMac taken in - RAM replaced & video card replaced. Able to mirror in the store. Restored my iMac with time machine backup and restored apple TV. Still getting the same message. Could it be some network setting I'm overlooking? I tried it while the apple TV was connected via ethernet as well - no dice.

  • Windows can see iTunes Library, Mac can not see Windows library

    All,
    I'm having a bit of a dilemma here.. I think the following issues are sourced by the same root cause.
    First i can't not get my iphone remote.app to be recoginized by my Mac OSx desktop, it works fine with my windows desktop(they are plugged into the same router and settings look good here so I'm discounting the router as the cause). Yes I have made sure to give access to itunes in the Firewall settings
    Second, My windows machine can see my Mac's shared itunes library, yet my Mac machine can see my window's shared itunes library.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated!and thankyou!

    I had this problem recently, and it was because I had both the XP firewall enabled and the firewall included in my F-Secure client. Check your Windows machine to make sure you don't have such a firewall conflict.

  • Itunes 10.5 crashes with no error when trying to play any music, video, or import/scan from the library folder on the compter with Windows 7 Pro.

    Fresh install with all older itunes un-installed as well as other Apple software.
    Now cannot get any songs, videos, or even scan library folder for songs to work on the computer.
    itunes just simply crashes with no error comments.
    This is itunes 10.5 on a Windows 7 Pro system.

    Same here, though on XP. Have tried cleaning registry, reinstalling, deleting preferences. Created a new user with no library and I have the problem there, too, so it's not the library.
    Is there no one to call about this??

  • Data in DataSets, but error when trying to populate Crystal Report

    I have been in the process of making changes to a legacy application as described in this post.  [Error received on windows application|Error received on windows application]
    I have changed the references from 10.0 to 10.2.  The application included references to CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Design, CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.Framework and CrystalDecisions.Enterprise.InfoStore which did not have a comparable version in 10.2, so for the moment I have removed them.
    I have then tried to run the application (compiles fine) and run into this error:
    A first chance exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll
    The code where it fails is here, when it is trying to load it into the report:
            private void SendDailyRentalDataToCrystal()
                crystalFailure = false;
                try
                    crystalDailyRentalReport.Database.Tables["ReportParameters"].SetDataSource(dsDailyRentalParameters);
                    crystalDailyRentalReport.Database.Tables["ReportData"].SetDataSource(dsDailyRentalData);
                catch
                    crystalFailure = true;
                    string error = "Unable to generate the Daily Rental Report.
                    error += "There was a problem sending the data to Crystal Reports.";
                    System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(error, "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
    The DataSet visualizers for dsDailyRentalParameters and for dsDailyRentalData both indicate that there is valid data being returned from SQL Server.  This code is part of a Win32 application developed using VS 2005 and the reports were originally developed using Crystal Reports 10.
    Thanks for any help that you can provide.

    Ludek-
    It appears that during the course of trying to rectify the CR versioning issues that I had, I altered the functionality of the application.  This morning I reverted back to the previous version of my application and started over on the changes.  After all, I only had a couple small changes to make.
    I now have a functioning application.  However, I am not sure exactly what the cause of the last issue that I was fighting or how to fix it.
    Anyway, thanks much for the assistance that you provided.
    Regards,
    Scott

  • How do I prevent windows from shutting down ITUNES with a Data Protection Execution error when trying to sync with my Iphone 4S in a 32 bit windows environment?

    I first was not able to install ITunes 10.5.  Apple upgrade installer caused a data protection execution error and windows reverted the process back to the original software.  I then removed ITunes through the control panel ap.  I removed Bonjour and quicktime.  I could not use the windows uninstaller to remove the apple upgrade installer and had to find a fix it program on the microsoft web site to fully remove this program.  After doing this, I was able to load and install itunes 10.5.  However, now when I try to sync my new 4S phone, the sync only goes to the 2nd or 3rd step before eliciting a DPE error and causing itunes to shut down.  I tried making a new user profile.  Opened I tunes in the new profile and began to search for music on my computer.  The program again elicited a DPE error.  I looked to see if quicken was still on the computer and maybe causing a hangup, but it is no longer installed.  Ok, I am at wits end and have spent much too much time on this issue.  Please help.

    I was able to finally stop ITunes from crashing after many days of searching n restarting my computer many times.
    a) First I went to this site ->http://forums.techarena.in/guides-tutorials/1119812.htm that showed me how to disable DPE. Please make sure that u have good virus...etc.. protection first before doing this. I have Avast Internet Security. RESTART UR COMPUTER..
    b) I then uninstall ITunes by following this site ->http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923      RESTART UR COMPUTER..
    c) I then downloaded a beta version of ITunes. I happen to download beta 7 before the final of 10.5 version came out. Installed it. After installing I click on it n it said somewhere along the line of "this ITune ver. expired" I checked in my Programs n Features n notice that QuickTime was installed w that beta version.   
    d) Go online n download the final version of ITunes ->http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ ...... After u finish dling install that. After that's done connect your IPod, IPhone...etc... n click on ITunes, it should sync all the way.
    I was finally able to sync all thru the steps insteading of it crashing on me midway. Hopefully this will work for you. Good luck !
