Freeze during download

I recently tried downloading from itunes store and it froze in the middle. I got charged for the download but it did not transfer into my purchased file. What can I do?

Hey boxmaster,
Try this, From in iTunes click on store>check for purchases. You can aso contact the iTunes support group here:http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/download/

Purchases freeze during download

For some reason, my purchases freeze during download. No matter how many times I restart, quit iTunes, etc., the downloads won't restart. The status bar indicates that the purchases are downloading, and the arrow-circle thing is spinning, but no progress is made.
Weirdly, if I go to another computer that is authorized, and sign into iTunes, check for purchases, the purchases download with no problem.

I've had the same problem about 10 different times over the past two months, mainly while downloading TV shows. I contacted Apple the first three or four times, and always got the same response - check for purchases and it should resume downloading. Clearly, this is NOT a fix for this problem and it would be nice if someone would acknowledge the problem and post a solution.
FYI, the movies do get "unstuck" one to three days later, but clearly this is beyond frustrating, especially when you want to watch the next episode of your favorite show.

IMac freezes during download of a podcast or import of a CD with iTunes

Downloading a podcast or the import of a CD makes my iMac freeze quite often, at least occasionally. Sometimes iMac freezes just playing a song. I have got MacOS 10.6.8 and the latest iTunes version. I'm afraid there is a corrupted song somewhere. How can I find it?

This problem has been driving me crazy for some time. It happens when any of my podcasts finish downloading while I am watching another video podcast. The video podcast I am currently watching pauses for usually at least 30 seconds but progresses without the playback. I am running iTunes on my Macbook Pro with 2GB ram. I assumed for the longest time it was the 5400 rpm drive but I'm not sure. I hope someone has a helpful hint! TIA, Brian

App store application freezes during downloads.

a few days ago Aperture (bought in the App Store) no longer reacted when trying to start it. I erased it. Now everytime i try to reinstall from the App store
(it shows up correctly under bought items) the App Store application freezes. Any advice how to solve this problem?

Hi,
Use AppDelete to make sure all the Aperture associated files are removed from the hard disk.

Then restart your Mac and follow the instructions at this link to re download the app.

Ipod stops/freezes during downloading

I have a click wheel black and white screen ipod. I have had no problems until I took it and tried to download the music from my girls imac g5. I went through all the questions, like you will erase your content and download the new songs etc. It started to download and would get to about 130 songs then stop. I have done the 5r's a zilion times with both of our computers with the same results. When it freezes it still makes noises as if its thinking, and I have also heard repetitive clicking on a time frame of 8 seconds or so. It does download, but only the first 130 songs or so. Can anyone help!

More info:
I found a program at download.com called TuneTech (http://prosoftengineering.com/products/tunetech_info.php)
Every time i did a scan on my iPod's hard disk, the scan would lock up once it had gotten to block 114,688
My theory is that's the bad part of the hard drive that files plug up at, kinda like a bottleneck on the freeway... except this isn't a slow down, it's a total lane-blocker!!!

IMac freezing during downloading

When downloading videos from the internet my iMac frequently freezes, though the cursor still moves. I cannot force quit, but must shut down the computer. On startup I get a message saying "the name of your computer is already in use on this network. The name has been changed to . . ." This is happening with different browsers including Safari and Whitehat Aviator. I'm using 10.6.8. I've looked this up and fear I may have to do a clean install. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello,
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
And/Or...
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed. Or an errant process eating up RAM.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

Itunes 10.5 freezes during download!?

Hi So I just got the new ipod touch which requires the newest version of itunes. But whenever I try to download the bar freezes when it says "installing...", about 80%.

I am so stuck and have no clue what I should do! Please help!

HTC Thunderbold freezes during download/update: Help?

My HTC TB locks up as this download happens. I've seen advice on pulling the battery. I've been doing this for hours now. I need my phone as I am moving. This is horrible timing.
I suspect my antivirus may be stopping it... but I received NO warning and this update was simply foisted without notification.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

You're welcome! But, what a pain!
You might get rid of everything Apple by using the Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp Utility.
Get rid of ASU, iTunes, QuickTime....then maybe the next install will 'stick' properly.
Or even go through the more thorough steps from this article, listed under "General installation troubleshooting"
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
The uninstaller is listed in there.
Depends how much time you want to spend on it, and how often you update itunes, I guess.

Boot Camp Freezes During Download

Ok so for the past week I have been trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate on my 13" Macbook Pro (mid 2010). Obviously I am using Boot camp to do so. The process always begins smoothly, but whenever the installation gets to the "Completing the Installation" step it freezes and I have to force restart my computer. I have tried countless times with both Ultimate and Home Premium, both copies are authentic. I am getting extremely frustrated and any advice at all would be fantasitc!! thanks!

Well the home premium was a burned on a DVD disk but the Ultimate version wasn't. I had the original one.

Adobe BRIDGE CS 5 PHOTO DOWNLOADER freezes and/or stops working during download after 2 years of use

Adobe BRIDGE CS 5 PHOTO DOWNLOADER freezes and/or stops working during download after 2 years of use. I have uninstalled/re installed twice, cleaned system, adjusted Bridge settings with no change. And I have found no helpful troublshooting tips in forum or on web.

Does it freeze with other type of cards. Have seem some post that suggest an imbedded CODEC on the flash card can cause file corruption in Bridge and Mac Finder.

ITunes 8 freezes iMac during downloads

iTunes 8 repeatedly causes my iMac to freeze while downloading songs. This has happened 5 or 6 times since I purchased my iMac a few months ago. This never seems to happen while downloading a TV show or Podcast -- only when I purchase an album of music. The only recourse is to shut off my computer and re-start, but the interrupted songs are not available for download after re-start. Any ideas what is causing this? iTunes customer service re-posts the missing songs, but they offer no clue on how to solve the underlying problem.

Download iTunes (http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/) and install it over your current installation. This will not affect any of your music or videos and may solve your problem.

Apps freeze during update in iOS 8.02

After updating to 8.02 I am having my ipad freeze during the app update process. I get the circle but the ring fails to show any download progress. If I touch the circle it returns to the update button? This on a new iPad air

Close the App Store app and reset your iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset 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.
If those things made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
