How can I make ITunes downloading again?

Dear all
ITunes stops reacting when I download e.g. apps or podcasts. It starts normally but after a while it just stops. This happens since a couple of days. Never had any problems before.

Resetting the iTunes Preference Files:
May need to make hidden files visible
My Documents>Tools>Folder Options>View
Check Show hidden files and folders
-- Quit iTunes
-- Delete C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref and/or iTunesPrefs.xml
-- Delete C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer Inc\iTunes.pref and/or iTunesPrefs.xml

    Try connecting it to your computer and restoring it by going to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and clicking on Restore (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414).  If that doesn't work you'll have to put it into recovery mode and restore it, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

  • How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?

    How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?
    I myself think that (for instance) "A tribe called Quest" should be sorted under "A", not "T".
    Now I can edit the sort options manually per track and/or per selection, but I would really like to just kill this "iTunes-knows-how-you-should-sort"-feature in iTunes.
    Anyone any suggestion on how to do that?
    Thanks

    Here is a modified version of one of Doug's Scripts. My modification was to add Sort Name to the list of tags that could be changed. I tried it on a single track and it worked. I recommend backing up your library first. Select the tracks you want to change (or all tracks) and run the script from the Applescript Editor.  If it works as intended, save it so you can apply it to newly imported tracks.  And, yes, I know this isn't the exact answer to your question, you want to change a preference setting in iTunes (if there is such a setting).
    Original script can be forund at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=thistagthattag
    Modified script is below. Start up Applescript Editor, paste it into a new window.  Start up iTunes and select the tracks to modify.  Click Run in the Applescript Editor.  Follow the instructions.

  • How can i make my Downloads folder icon in Dock bounce again?

    I accidentally removed my downloads folder from the Dock and when I added it back onto the Dock, it would not bounce when i downloaded something.
    Before I removed it from the dock, it would always bounce whenever i download something and the thing i downloaded would appear on the icon. How can I get this setting again?

    Note if you don't have any folders on your Dock, note the trashcan is on one side of the dock with a divider between it and applications.  Minimized windows (with the yellow button on the upper left corner) will go between the trash and that divider.  You can drag folders into the section between the minimized windows and the trash.

  • How can I make Java work again

    Java went down on all Apple products last week, but how do I make it work again?  I have, let me repeat that, I HAVE to use java for work.  I have 2 programs that are essential to my work and they are currently not working causing me to either use a PC or not get work done. The timing was interesting considering I was planing on buying new Macbook Pros and Macs for our office.  However, if this is something that can and will happen with no way to fix it I might have to consider PC. Why didn't Apple give us the option to disable and not just disable without even giving us a warning.  I didn't get an e-mail or pop up or anything that said "hey Java will not be working due to..." Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi!
    Today i read news that there were new patch files from java and apple turned it on again

  • My bookmark seperators in a newer version of Firefox are too light. I seem to remember in older versions they were much darker. How can I make them dark again. Now I can hardly see the seperator.

    How can I make the bookmark separators dark? They are very light and I can hardly see them. I seem to remember that in older versions of FireFox they were much darker and easier to see.

    On an older 1.5GHz PowerPC G4 mac, and on a
    newer iMac 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    both running OSX10.5.8, and using the default FF 3.6.6 theme.
    The separator lines are so faint as to be not there, giving the impression of just a big gap in the menu being displayed.

  • How can I make itunes detect new music added to Music folder

    How can I setup itunes to automatically detect new music added to my music folder? Under the advanced setting I currently have Itunes set to view my music folder where all my music is located. Im using Windows 7, Itunes Version 10.4.1.10. Currently I have to add new music manually and that's *****. I have over 2000 cd's that I need to rip. Please help. Thanks

    If you are ripping CDs, you can rip with iTunes and the tracks will be added to your iTunes library without manual intervention.
    But if you already have the files, or are using something other than iTunes to rip, you will note that iTunes does not automatically detect when new files have been placed in a folder.  You can add this capability by using a 3rd party program such as iTunes Folder Watch.

  • How can I make iTunes accept an alias as a movies folder?

    I love how iTunes organises my media files. But I need to keep my movie purchases on a different, external HD with USB 3.0.
    Creating an alias of the folder "Movies" I've copied to the HD and moving the alias back on place into the user's local Library ends in disaster. All movies that have been in the folder before moving it to the new HD are still playable.
    All newly purchased movies are downloaded out of the "Movies" folder at top level directory instead on the external HD. I can copy them to the external HD aliased "Movies" folder, but they won't appear in iTunes after dragging the files onto the iTunes window. I get an error message that says, the appopriate folder is missing. What can I do to make iTunes accept the aliased "Movies"-Folder as default for purchased movies?

    iTunes is very good, and has been for years, at totally ignoring alises and symbolic links, particularly when another drive is involved.  If you want to keep movies on a separate drive you will have to take a humbler approach and drag them to the external drive, then add them from there (hold down the option/alt key while adding to iTunes so iTunes doesn't copy them back to your main drive).  Maybe some day in the distant future the programmers of iTunes will realize many users have to use external drives since the ones supplied with the computers these days are pretty small (my 12 year old computer has a bigger drive), and if Apple wants people to buy huge media files from the iTunes Store they need to factor this into design.  Send feedback to:

  • How can I stop iTunes downloading every podcast from the cloud when I only want unplayed podcasts to show in iTunes?

    When I set iTunes to automatically download all new episodes and only keep unplayed episodes, it downloads every episode in every one of my podcasts feeds. This means thousands of files, as not every XML feed hosts only a few files. Some host hundreds.
    How can I get rid of all these podcasts that I don't want to display? The old way was a superior user experience to the way it is now.

    My workaround for this is to set up a smart playlist. I hope this is another one of the issues that gets cleard up when Apple eventually releases an 11.1.1 update.

  • How can I make iTunes authorize Audible files?

    I downloaded an audio book from Audible.com to my desktop computer at home.  Now I am traveling, using my wife's MBP, and have my iTunes library with me on an external drive. iTunes is pointed at that library and open.  I am trying to sync my iPod Touch and in the books seciton, I have specified the audio books to be copied onot my iPod, but I get the message that “some of the Audible files were not authorized to be used on this computer.”  How can I overcome this?
