Genius will not Load - Freezes iTUNES

Every time I even attempt to activate Genius it freezes my itunes. I sign in, I click yes to agree to terms and it begins to gather information. As soon as it hits that stage I get the Spinning Color wheel and I will freeze. I decided to wait it out - no luck after 3+ hours. I tried deleting all older versions of genius libraries but that did not work......What am I doing wrong? Someone please help!

Same problem here, itunes loads halfway, then basically stops at a blank page which is where i started at to begin with.
1) I've checked all firewalls and antivirus securities.
2) I've restarted my computer and disabled all programs except for itunes
3) check proxy settings
4) reinstalled itunes
5) ran "ipconfig" per apples recommendation.
Still doesn't work. Need help!

  • TS1424 Rented movie will not load from iTunes

    I have been trying, without success, to watch a movie that I rented from iTunes. It will not load, loads after waiting for  ages and then plays 2-3 minutes and stops. I have a 50MB connection so download speed is not a factor.
    How do I contyact iTunes and request a refund?
    I have now bought the movie!!
    Thanks
    Stebe

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • Synching Photo Tab for Iphone will not load in iTunes

    Hi. I cannot get the photo tab to open (it is available as a choice) in itunes 11, when my phone is connected. I am running Mavericks with an Iphone 5 with current iOS.
    I get the spinning wheel for hours with no activity, when I click on the tab. All other synching functions working properly. 
    There are no photos on my iphone to synch at this time, however I would like to synch some from iPhoto. Prior to the issue, I did have photos synching fine. I may have increased the issue by renaming the album that Iphone was directed to synch from in iPhoto. However, it was also directed to synch some faces, and that information has not changed. I am wondering if all this has to do with the mavericks upgrade and also upgrading iphoto and iphoto library subsequently. There are no photos or albums showing on the phone.
    Any ideas? Much apprecaited.

    I have tried all the this -with no success
    I am using OSX 10.9.2 all devices IOS 7.1 , iTunes 11.1.5
    iPad mini ,IPhone 5 etc. The photo tab does not load up
    I get the spinning wheel  with no activity, when I click on the tab. All other synching functions working properly
    did get error 1723 on trying to sync after clicking on the photos tab,"spinning wheel"
    please help

  • HT204406 I added music to iTunes but it will not load upto iMatch

    I have 3 CDs I loaded in iTunes, but they will not load into iTunes Match so that I can download them on my phone.  How should I proceed?

    Disconnect the iPod, restart your computer, reconnect your iPod, sync your purchases.  Do they now show up on your iPod Nano?

  • MacBook Core Duo will not load pages on known working router

    I've got the original Core Duo black MacBook running OS 10.6.5 that's having problems with Wi-Fi. It will connect to networks at my school, but at home, it will connect (very slowly) to my Linksys G Router that works with my phone, my iPod touch, and my Early 2008 Aluminum iMac (OS 10.5.8), but it refuses to load web pages in Safari or Firefox, as well as it will not load the iTunes Store. If I turn on Internet Sharing at the iMac, I can use that signal to access the internet. This is not a distance issue as it has worked well in the past and the router is right next to the iMac I am using for Wi-Fi right now. I have had the issue before, but it wouldn't load pages from any Wi-Fi source, so I replaced the AirPort card with a genuine Apple 802.11N card, thus resolving that issue. I have tried resetting the router and the modem, but this has not helped.
    Thanks in advance.

    Have you checked for firmware updates for the router?
    If you connect to the router via Ethernet, can you get to the Internet without issue?

  • Movies on itunes will not load or load very slowly and freeze on my apple tv.

    Movies on itunes will not load or load very slowly and freeze on my apple tv. both the computer and apple tv are wired connections on my home network. Checked the network speed and it is between 0 and 1 ms response. This problem just started last week. Only new software introduced recently was update to Norton 360.
    Thanks

    I know very little about windows but security software is notorious for causing the type of problem you have, you may want to contact Symentec and ask them which settings you need to change.

  • ITunes U class page freezes up and will not load

    Last week I got into my iTunesU class page and downloaded without a problem. This week the class page will not load and my computer says iTunes is not responding.  I deleted iTunes and reinstalled, but it didn't fix the problem.

    Try the basic 5Rs from Apple Support website.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

  • ITunes and Quicktime will not load

    Hi, when i try and load my iTunes, it will not load. It has been working fine for months, but has recently stopped!
    When i try and load iTunes, i am given the standard Windows "iTunes has encountered a problem" screen with the error message of:
    Error Signature
    AppName: itunes.exe
    AppVer: 6.0.0.3
    ModName: quicktimeStreamingAuthoring.QTX
    ModVer: 7.0.3.50
    OffSet: 00016cb9
    So i "Repaired" iTunes, which didnt fix the problem, i uninstalled it, which also didnt fix it.
    Then i decided to try and uninstall Quicktime, due to it being the root of the problem, and i was greeted with this error:
    Error Description
    DLL function call crashed
    QTInstallCode.QuickTimeUninstallPrc
    Any ideas on what is the problem, and how to fix it?! Because i cannot install a new quicktime whilst this one is still on my computer, and i cant get it off!!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Matt

    Okay... I'm waiting for this answer too!! Exact problem...was working fine now I get the "Itunes has encountered a problem...." I attempted to run Quicktime (it is needed, I understand) but now it will not run. I uninstalled all (could not even find Quicktime) and attempted to reinstall. Itunes apparently reinstalled but Quicktime will not... and now nothing is running.
