Found Solution(?) for iTunes freeze after files copying to iPod
I have a fairly new (2-3 months old) iPod Video and it worked fine for a good while. At some point any time I made an alteration to the files on the iPod (like a play list) or added files everything would freeze up once the action was completed. I would have to ctrlaltdel and bring up the Task Manager and force iTunes to quit. If I worked with a playlist or whatever on the iPod or worked with a playlist on the computer, everything was fine -- it was after copying files from the computer to the iPod where things messed up. Nobody seemed to know what to do... I couldn't find a solution online with Apple either -- though I did reinstall iTunes, Quicktime and the iPod software...
A week or two ago I, for some reason, was messing around while my iPod was attached to my computer and noticed I could select it for a defrag with Disk Defragmenter. I decided I'd see HOW fragmented the thing was. Pretty much! I went ahead and ran the defrag and, low and behold, everything works like it should now! Back to normal!
So, I assume that is what my problem was. If anyone else has a similar problem you might look at this...
Good luck!

By playing them you have made changes - to the last played date and the play count. If you rated or re-rated the song, that would also count as a change. If youre iPod is set to auto-sync, iTunes would write those changes back to your iPod. I'm not sure, though, why it would do that if you manually sync.

ITunes freezes after upgrading, and connecting ipod.
itunes freezes and hangs after connecting ipod touch. I have reinstalled itunes and got it to work ONCE! Please help! I have tried EVERYTHING on the apple website and NOTHING works.
Hi JZN1994,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that after updating your computer to 10.9.3 iTunes stops responding when an iPhone is connected to it. There may be few different steps you will need to go through to get this resolved. I suggest working through the steps in the attached article.

Hello to everyone out there: o)
I have itunes 11 .. installed 1 day before, now my playlists do not agree in the presentation!
itues keeps crashing! "Solution is sought.
Receive message when you found solution. Itunes connect"??
There do not appear in itunes all devices
Windows 7
sorry for my english!Hey, I have had my intunes soley shut down my computer numerous times, for the past month or so. I realize now it is only within my itunes, but it may not only be itunes. My desktop and a lot of cashed info have been cleared now, as a result of a ton of restarts by completely shutting the power most likely.
I have been too lazy to back up my music because it messes stuff up, and goes so slow it crashes. it will probably work better if I dont even touch itunes and just transfer small parts of my library at a time, not all 120+ gb!
I think a my computer is
a fried
b my files are terribly corrupted
c or my itunes is compromised
either way, i will back up my music, but what do you think the chances are my music is the culprate, and by backing it up I will have the same problem in the future?
i've been thinking re-installing itunes would be best
let me know....thanks -

Before I updated my iPod I had all of the songs to an album that I bought on iTunes. After I updated my iPod I only have 5 of those songs from the album. I would like to know how I can get the rest of the songs cause I already paid for the album and I went on my computer and it said that I have to pay for them even though I already paid for the whole album. So what do I do?
Sync with the same computer iTunes that you normally sync with.

Itunes freezes when I connect my ipod....possible corrupt file?
I reinstalled itunes to the latest version.
And I'm still having the same problem: My itunes freezes whenever I connect my ipod. And when i disconnect it, it unfreezes and it shows "My Ipod" in itunes for like a second then goes away.
Now, when I reinstalled again, i noticed a message saying that Windows is missing components required to fully install Itunes (itunes installed anyway) or something like that. Now, i connected it to my parents' pc and it works fine.
Is there something wrong with my pc? Is there a different program where i can transfer my music to my ipod? (I am using Windows XP btw)
Also is there a way to move all the songs on my ipod to an external hard drive?
Message was edited by: Matt MianoSimilar problem here:
When I'm playing songs with iTunes and connecting my 3G 20GB iPod, my computer will hang up completely - screen goes dark and I have to reset my PC.
However, when my iTunes is "idle", i.e. not playing a song or doing anything else, connecting and syncing the iPod will work just fine.
I'm using the newest (6.x) Version of iTunes on WinXP SP2 with a 3G iPod 20GB.

Apple's temporary fix to drag each picture in iPhoto is not really a solution for a big pic file. Better to use the save all feature and save to a temporary place before importing it to iPhoto.
Can you explain why the image size matters when dragging and dropping into iPhoto?

My itunes freezes when I connect my ipod....help!!
I have installed the new update (Windows 8 64 bit) & my itunes freezes when I connect my ipod.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

How do I convert AIFF song files in iTunes to ACC files to fit iPod?
How do I convert AIFF song files in iTunes to ACC files to fit iPod? My AIFF files are appartently bigger per song than ACC files. How do I convert an AIFF song or playlist in iTunes to ACC files so they take up less room. Right now I can only fit 50 songs as opposed to 500 songs. The songs are already in iTunes as AIFF files. Most of the songs I inport are original songs from CD's that are already AIFF files. How do I convert them when going into my iPod?
g-5 Mac OS X (10.4.8) iPod NanoThank you so much! I now know how to convert AIFF audio files to ACC files, and I can keep the original AIFF file! One other concern though -- how do I tell which is the bigger AIFF file and which is the new smaller ACC file? iTunes doesn't have an obvious place/window that tells me the audio file size. Is there a way to tell the two apart. It looks like it creates an identical file name, not even a "copy" extension or anything -- so it's impossible to tell them apart. Is there another secret here?

Itunes freezes when i put my ipod 5th generation in
i need help what can i do to fix this i open I tunes first then i connect my ipod by the usb then itunes freezes and doesnt detect the ipod in the source list can someone please help
Ever since I installed Snow Leopard I have been having syncing issues with my 5th Gen 80GB iPod. It first gave me an error that it could not read or write to the iPod. The music and podcast were able to write to the iPod but when it got to syncing my photos is when it failed. I then just yesterday installed iTunes 9 hoping it would help, which it didn't. I tried to do a restore of my iPod with iTunes 9 and it was able to erase the iPod just fine and when I went to sync it again it gets stuck at about 5GB completed. I have a total of about 60GB's that I am trying to sync, but even if I just sync a few things it still will give an error "Can't synce 80GB iPod because it can't be read or written to (error -50)."
So I am not sure if this is a Snow Leopard issue or iTunes issue. I don't think it is my iPod because it was working fine now for over 2 years. Even the small amount of 5GB that it did transfer will play just fine from my iPod. -
When i was waiting for an hour for itunes to grading my 2nd generation ipod touch to a 4.2.1 and it was about done, it suddenly said the network connection timed out and that made the upgrading a fail. Why does it do that? and what does it mean?
Error -3259 is a network timeout error, usually. This article might help:
