Freezes when monitor moves

This one's a bit weird. I was having random freezes, particularly when waking from sleep, and memory beeps. So I went in and did the ribbon insulation, no problems. And my computer was fine for an hour. Then I moved the screen back a bit, and the whole thing froze while the speakers crackled. testing it a few more times, the speakers didn't crackle, but any movement of the screen causes a freeze. Anyone have an idea what's going on?

Hi Ezra,
Did you also tighten (snug) up the screws, top and bottom? If not, that's next step. If so, post back.

Why does Quicktime freeze when opening .movs?

For the past few months, I have experienced intermittent screen "blackouts"; essentially the screen goes black as if the computer has gone into sleep mode (while still working in a given program) but there is nothing I can do but a hard shutdown to exit this state. Recently, both Quicktime and VLC have stopped working properly; I've discovered that Quicktime will open .AVI files, but freezes when opening .mov files. VLC will open neither. Both programs work fine when working with audio files. I have updated my mac's graphic drivers (to the best of my knowledge) and have worked around various preferences (open GL video output in VLC for instance) to no avail. My only remaining theory is a corrupt .mov codec file, or a compounding issue stemming from the initial screen blackouts (which I've discovered could be an actual hardware problem with mac pros sold around 2010..), but I feel it's time to outsource for some new solutions. I'm still running Snow Leopard 10.6.8; 2.66 GHz Intel core i7; 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3; MacBook Pro from 2010. Any help with this issue is greatly appreciated, as I've researched for hours and have yet to find a solution or even a potential cause for these issues.

Itunes freezes when renaming movies or add illustration

Hi, itunes freezes when i try to renaming movies or add illustration for 30 secondes.
Thanks you

After experiencing this probelm for forever and a day with countless minutes of time wasted, I HAVE A SOLUTION! Albeit one I stumbled on by accident.
Before you rename a file, double click the movie to start playing it, then "X" (close) out of the window playing to stop it playing. Then rename the file and it will work instantly.
Don't ask me why this works, it just does....!

MBP freeze when I move

my MBP continues to blocks, freeze continues even when the move, I tried various alternatives, reset PRAM starting in safe mode, but nothing, the apple does nothing and can not repair it, are not able to keep on pc

if it still in warranty call apple technical support...

Video playback pauses/freezes when I move my T500... also keeps dropping wireless connection...

Video playback in Windows Media, Quicktime and in Firefox (youtube, etc.) pauses when I physically move my laptop. I've never had this happen on any other laptop. Any suggestions?
Another annoying problem is that it drops the wireless connection in my home every couple of minutes. This doesn't happen with any of the other 3 laptops I'm running so it's not my ISP or router.
Thanks for any help!

The ThinkPad Active Protection System (APS) will protect the Hard Drive when you move your ThinkPad, and this probably causing the behaviour you are observing. There are options for disabling APS for particular purposes, so you should have a look in the APS options... look in the ThinkVantage folder on your Start menu.
Regarding your WiFi issues, you need to make sure that all the relevant power managment settings for WiFi are set to Maximum Performance (or similar). This has been covered in numerous messages here already. so a few minutes with the serach function should provide you with more details.

Freezes when exporting .mov files in CS4 / Adobe Media Encoder

For the past 7 hours now I have been trying every internet remedy for the following problem, and was wondering if any of you nice people could help:
I just came back from a ski trip, and wanted to make an edit featuring my fiends. I recorded large parts of the trip on my new iPhone, both in 720p 120fps (120.15fps, h.264 1280*720) and the normal 1080p 30fps. iPhone files are in the .mov format. I also recorded some parts on a GoPro hero hd2 camera at both 720p 60fps and 1080p 30fps. GoPro files are in the MP4 format, and i've never had a probvlem with them.
Now all imports fine into premiere pro, and although I had a few problems with freezing while editing initially, this was quickly solved by terminating all unused (non-adobe) processes in task manager.
So I spent a good 4 hours making a 2.5 minute edit of our day, and wanted to export it.
So I selected the sequence, and went file>export>media, selected all of the preferences i wanted for exporting, and sent it to the Adobe media encoder.
The media encoder loads the files for a few seconds, and then starts the encoding process. And promptly freezes. It freezes at around 10-20 seconds (depending on export preferences) after starting to encode, and never restarts. i can then pause the encode, but cancelling it crashes adobe media encoder and subsequently also crashes Premiere Pro.
I may be mistaken here, but I have a strong suspicion that It is quicktime that is causing all this.
So I tried the following:
- reinstalling, downgrading, updating, etc. Quicktime
- renaming file extensions from .mov to .mp4
- all sorts of export preferences, from image sequences to dvd to blueray and dv. (Image sequences, interestingly, occasionally export to about half a minute into the video(also depending on preferences), then freeze)
- crossing my fingers
- checking for gaps in video, found none
- updating premiere pro and media encoder
- throwing my mouse at the wall in frustration
- making a new project with different settings and copying in the sequence
- disabling "Include source xmp metadata"
- making a new user account and trying it there
Is there anything else I can try?
Could I copy the project itself into a different program (e.g. iMovie or Windows Movie Maker) and export from there?
Is there an alternative to Adobe media encoder?
Need more information?
Thanks for the help!
Specs:
Premiere version: 4.2.1
Encoder version: 4.2.0.006
Comp specs:
16Gb ram
quad core i5
256 Gb solid state (system, program files are here)
2TB HDD (video files, scratch disk are here)
Nvidia gtx 660 graphics
Windows 64 bit
1 monitor

I bought quicktime pro today to try this, but to no avail. it just freezes up again during export.
I tried some other fixes on that page, like renaming files to .mpg extension, which worked once during an export of a test sequence (although everything was shifted and it cut off the export at the gopro footage).
Is there any way I can export this project to another program to export it from there perhaps?
Thanks for the help!

IMovie 08 Freezes when importing movies from Sony Handycam

I Have a Sony Handycam DCR-SR65 and when I try to import multiple or all videos into iMovie 08 the computer freezes and I cant quit the application without shutting down my computer by holding down the power button. Why can't I import my movies easily, is there some kind of trick? Most of the time I can import one video at a time, but even then it freezes sometimes.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

I haven't got and haven't used one of these, but a little bell rings at the back of my mind concerning similar cameras which record onto solid state memory: try first taking off all the still photos (..if you've taken any..) and putting them in iPhoto and then deleting them from the camera's hard disc or Memory Stick.
THEN try importing the video.
The mix (..if you have both stills and movies..) on the camera may affect importing.
If the stills go exclusively onto a Memory Stick, and don't get recorded onto the hard disc, nevertheless ..try importing those into iPhoto first, and then wiping the Memory Stick.
However, that may not be the cause of your trouble, and others may have better answers!

Itunes freezes when playing movies or tv, music ok

I downloaded a movie and it wouldn't play at all. The opening starts, but then when you go to select play movie, it freezes. Then all of itunes freezes and I have to close it with the task manager. No no video - tv shows, clips, other movies will play. Always crashes and I have to close with task manager. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, but still the same issue.
HELP!
PS - Music plays just fine.

After experiencing this probelm for forever and a day with countless minutes of time wasted, I HAVE A SOLUTION! Albeit one I stumbled on by accident.
Before you rename a file, double click the movie to start playing it, then "X" (close) out of the window playing to stop it playing. Then rename the file and it will work instantly.

Itunes freezes when renaming movies

i try and rename a movie in my itunes and it gives me the spinning wheel of death..any ideas??
Itunes 9

Hoping to ressurect this thread...
I am in the process of transferring my iTunes library and (perhaps) "life" over to an iMac 27 from a Windows PC; however, I am having some issues with my iTunes Library. Specifically, I am unable to update the metatag data (i.e. rename files) for movies in my iTunes library. iTunes freezes and the "beachball" continues to spin into eternity, until I "force quit" the application. I've also noticed that it ends up corrupting the files and rendering them useless, which forces me to reconvert them for compatibility with an iPod using Quicktime.
My iTunes library resides on a NAS connected via a 100 Mbps wired connection.
The following is the link to another thread on the same topic:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12672172&#12672172
Hopefully, someone has found an answer.

Mini ipad keep freezing when watching movie, please help!

I cannot watch movie on my mini ipad. It freeze every one or two minutes and I have to keep push pause and play.
Please let me know what I have to do.

Try the basic troubleshooting tips and see if any of these help with the freezing issue.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
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 - let go of the buttons.
Quit the apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If you are watching the YouTube videos on Safari - this may help as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data (orCache in iOS 4.3.5). Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

IPad Air connected to iTunes - freezes when selecting movies, podcasts, etc.

New iPad Air connected to the latest update of iTunes, syncing just fine. When I select the iPad and then go to Summary - no problem, go to Apps - no problem, go to Podcasts - FREEZE. iTunes has to be shutdown using Task Manager and the iPad reconnected. The only sync settings areas I can look at are Summary, Apps, Books, Photos...any other sync setting area causes a FREEZE.
I've tried re-installing iTunes, resetting my iPad, etc., etc., etc.
Any helpful suggestions?

So I just spent an hour restoring my iPhone, then restoring from backup (40Gb filled in a 64Gn iPhone takes a while). Very interestingly, I watched all my podcasts get copied into my iPhone but they are not accessible from the Music app, nor are they found when doing a Spotlight search!
I downloaded Apple's Podcast app and they seemed to appear there (couldn't tell for sure, app is confusing and it was accessing Wifi so I diodn't know what it saw, or if it was fetching files). But of course that app has no smart folders and accessing new podcasts and podcasts based on time-length is impossible.
Oh yes, after the restore I tried clicking on the Podcasts tab and iTunes froze up again....

Then take your MPB to your local AS or an AASP. Diagnostic testing is FREE!
Contact the router manufacturer.
If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it.

Freezing video when watching movie on 2nd monitor.

Freezing fregrently for a second video when watching movie with ful screen option.

You won't be able to do it with the included QuickTime media player. But it can be done with other media players like MPlayer or VLC I am pretty sure. Haven't had this exact need myself but have seen other similar threads and recall the above being recommended. Good luck.

Firefox freezes when opened on secondary monitor using default profile. Other profile okay.

Windows 7. Firefox 28.0. Hardware acceleration is off in both profiles.
Default profile behaves normally in the primary monitor (I have two monitors). When I open the default in the secondary monitor, it appears to be at maximize size but only the top bar of the screen is visible. If I shrink it, it locks up, but I can slide it over to the primary monitor where it then works normally.
If I open it in the primary monitor then move it to the secondary, it shows in a less than full screen. When I maximize it, a duplicate screen partially opens and both freeze, and menus freeze when I open them. I can slide it back to the primary where it works normally.
My other profile is an old one with all the bookmarks, settings and history. It works fine on both monitors.

You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file.

The sleep problem is a bug in 10.8. We have to wait for resolution.
