Hissing and crackling through ITunes on MacBook Pro.
Funny that most complaints about this issue are from people running ITunes through their PC's. I have the same problem through ITunes on my Mac. Play music through VLC player and it plays perfectly!!
What about Quicktime Player? I don't know how much of QT VLC uses and I'm trying to test under different configurations.
Other general suggestions (not a bad idea to back up before experimenting but none of below is risky):
Start iTunes in safe mode -

When I am listening to the radio (streaming through itunes) my macbook pro will log me out, quitting all the applications I have running (often firefox, word processing, itunes, etc). Why?
It's very frustrating and I don't understand why it happens. It might happen other times, but I notice it the most when I'm streaming the radio through itunes, though I think it's also happened when I'm streaming music or shows from NPR, so I don't actually know if it's an itunes thing, or an internet thing? Or just my computer being stupid? But how can I fix it?
Thanks!My best guess at this point is a problem wwith 10.5.8
It seems clear to me that sometimes, seemingly randomly, software will access the video card (flash player, quicktime, Safari's HTML5 video player, etc) and it will cause a freeze and then log out.
However - it could just be video card + processor under load.
This didnt happen before 10.5.8 and I'm thinking it's not the new 27" display causing the issue.
I'm going to attempt to find time to revert back to 10.5.0 and then combo update back up to 10.5.7 which may be difficult as our IT is remote and we don't have access to Snow Leopard discs.
I may just have to bring my own in. -
how do i transfer my itunes account (with all my music, photos and ipad apps) from a macbook pro to a new macbook air?
thanks but exactly how do I do this. I tried setting the new macair up using migration assistant but for some reason not everything has come through. I bought a thunderbolt cable to improve the transfer rate.
Now my question is how do I transfer the iTunes folder. I have authorised the new macair for iTunes and am within the 5 computer limit. -
I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7. Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.
iTunes does not use the .xml it uses the .itl
If you are sure your old library file migrated across (does the file size and modification dates suggest it has?) start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the .itl file to get it to use that one. -

Able to install the .ipa signed with distribution certificate using iTunes on MacBook Pro. where as the when tried to install using iTune on PC is causing a problem
The sound input going to the mic is not going to pipe through the speakers like that. It doesn't do it because it would cause a feedback loop on itself. The mic input will take sound and output it to a program or to another pathway (like a VoIP or Facetime call, etc.) but it won't behave like a Karaoke machine if that's what you're thinking.

Trying to buy pages and numbers on my new macbook pro, and the apple store is asking me security questions of which I've never answered. It's indicating that my answers are wrong. Any help would me great!

After some advice, I am new to Apple and looking to purchase either the MacBook Air 13inch with 256GB and 8GB mem or the MacBook Pro 13inch with retina 256Gb and 8GB mem. I am an assistant principal in a primary school and also studying my masters at university. I don't play computer games and I don't watch movies. I do store photos and videos of my kids and music on iTunes. I also like browsing the net with numerous windows open, check email etc. I am really wanting long battery life as I do a lot of my work on the couch - not close to a PowerPoint. Would the air do the trick or will it soon be outdated as Apple move towards retina display? Both air and pro seem very thin - almost the same? And not much difference in weight either so both very portable which is also a necessary requirement. Just can't help dreaming about that 12 hour claimed battery life. Any helpful advice/opinions, very much appreciated. Thanks
It's not likely that you'll get 12 hours in reql life. Those benchmarks are set under very strict controlled conditions. Kind of like mileage per gallon claims on cars. If 16GB of ram is an option at all I'd highly recommend you get that. As far as storage 256GB isn't alot, consider storing some things on an external thunderbolt real

Making Calls From Landline Through My iMac & Macbook Pro
Hi, being able to make and receive calls from my iPhone 4s through my iMac & Macbook Pro is good, but I (and from what I can see, so many others) also want to be able to make and receive calls from my landline through my iMac, Macbook Pro. Why does Apple not allow you a way of doing this, why can’t they include a way to plug in your home phone through the computer and an app to do this.
I only have so much credit on my mobile and can not ring all numbers from my iPhone without it costing me extra (I know it costs to make calls using this feature anyway), but I have to use my mobile to call 13 & 1300 numbers (as it is already paid for in my mobile credit) but it costs me extra to call these from my home phone, and I have to call 1800 numbers from my home phone as it is only free from landlines which I understand, but when I run out of credit on my mobile I have to use my home phone (Landline), so it renders this feature useless.
I do not understand why they can not include a way of doing this (without VOIP, Skype or anything that is going to cost you more money), like we used to be able to do with older modems, and dial-up etc. I have ADSL2+ and it seems there is no provision to do this by any means, and it also seems the better all the companies try to make technology, the less we are actually able to do with it, and the more backwards it becomes.
Apple would make an awful lot of people jump for joy if they allowed you a way to do these things. Don’t get me wrong, I love Apple for so many reasons, and I swore I would never go with them, but got sick to death of PC’s, Windows and the troubles associated with them, that I took the plunge. I will NEVER go back to PC or Windows. I do appreciate that Apple is so much better and cheaper in a lot of things, but making things easier for the home and Business user with features they need and want would be so very much appreciated. All I seem to see is what Apple don’t have, and what so many people want, but can’t get, that it is a shame that it all seems to be about the dollar now (Charge more for less) and not customer satisfaction.
PLEASE, if anyone (or Apple) knows of a way to do this without costing more I would love to know, as I have a disability and this would make my (and so many others, even without a disability) lives so much easier. Thanks."why can’t they include a way to plug in your home phone through the computer and an app to do this.": Because Apple doesn't control the land line phone. Some providers allow it using their modem, using a app made by the provider/telephone manufacturer, but most don't. Apple simply can't make software for all the phones out there. The problem doesn't come from Apple, it comes from the internet/landline providers.

I want to transfer an audiobook and a movie from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone 4S, and can't figure out how. I went to "Help" and it said after connecting the two devices I should "Click Apps," but I can't find anything labeled "Apps" to click. Help?!!
If you have iTunes 11 on your Mac then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S, that might make it easier to navigate.
Connect the phone to your Mac and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of the screen there should be a series of tabs which you can use to select what to sync to the phone. If it's an audiobook then it should appear on the Books tab for selecting/syncing, and films will be on the Movies tab. When you've got the audiobook on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app (you might need to tap the '...' tab at the bottom of the Music app to see it). -
Unable to share iTunes from macbook pro to mac mini
I have a Macbook Pro and a Mac Mini both running 10.6.8. They are connected wirelessly and I can open the Macbook Pro from the Mac Mini. However I cannot share the iTunes from the Macbook Pro to the Mac Mini. No Shared item comes up in the Library list. Any solutions?

I'm trying to pair my iPhone 4 with my MacBook Pro and it is saying my MacBook Pro is not supported. I just bought this thing and it's telling me that it isn't supported???
Do you mean Bluetooth?
If you are trying to activate your iPhone you need to use iTunes.
There's no need to "pair" an iPhone with a Mac. Syncing, restoring, backing up, apps/ music / photos etc., is all done with iTunes. -
I have lost all my address book and iCal content on my MacBook Pro. How do I restore from my iPhone?
I have lost all my address book and iCal content on my MacBook Pro. How do I restore from my iPhone? I tried synchronising my iPhone to the MacPro but then lost all the content on the iPhone. I managed to get it back using the restore. This means the only content I have for Address Book and iCal sits on my iPhone!
Put one unique entry in both iCal & Address Book on your Mac. These entries can be fake, that doesn't matter, just make sure Address Book & iCal are not empty. Then when you select to sync contacts & calendars on the Info pane in iTunes, you'll get a merge or replace prompt. Select merge.
