I can't get past step 2 in Match, locks up, restarted 10 times, anyone able to solve?

I signed up for itunes Match, locking up in step 2, always stop somewhere around 3/4 complete in step 2, any ideas?

Try posting in the iTunes Match forum, you'll probably find more knowledgeable folks there.

IPad can't get past step 8 when syncing. I have to unplug before the end. Is this normal? What do I do to solve the issue?

iPad can't get past step 8 when syncing. I have to unplug before the end. Is this normal? What do I do to solve the issue? Thanks. JD

It is syncing through everything and then failing to close out. If I disconnect then the libraries are all there although I have lost a movie and a few tracks downloaded as a result of this.

CAN'T GET PAST STEP 8 SETUP CD

I have a WRT54G router. After a couple of months I started having problems accessing the internet. I started all over again, installing the router rom scratch. However, I can't get past step 8 of the installation process. The setup program prompts me for a password. I enter "admin" and it starts checking for computer settings. After it reaches 100%, it prompts for the password again and then the process start all over. It never stops asking for the password.
I try to exit, but I get a message saying "installation incomplete". HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You had a password setup on this router when you initially setup this router. You need to provide that password. If you don’t remember the password then you may need to hard reset the router by pressing the reset button at the back for 1min and then try again. This time it should accept the admin password.

Was forced to install Adobe again (maybe just update it) and can't get past step 3/3 because its forcing me to buy it. now its half installed and i need to agree to terms and conditions..

Let's start with what you are trying to install. Adobe Reader is free, so it won't be forcing you to buy anything. So
- What are you trying to install (full name, please, Adobe make lots of things)
- What system (e.g. Windows 7, Mac OS Lion, iPad...)
- Where do you go (what web address) to start off?
- Why were you "forced" to do this?

ITunes match can't get past step 1

I bought iTunes match as soon as it was available here in Austria. At first it worked fine. Then I imported some new songs. After that it has never been able to get past step 1 (gathering data on your media library). My MacBook was running more that 24h for several times, still I couldn't get past step 1. I can't and won't have iTunes open more than 24h in one session since I need to be able to work with it. What am I supposed to do?
Maybe relevant: the iTunes genius-process also can't finish since I imported these new songs.
Thank you!

I spent 4 hours on the phone yesterday with Apple support on this exact issue. Apparently ML corrupted my iTunes library. I had to get a senior tech at Apple to remotely access my Mac to walk me through the fix, which required moving my iTunes files around, as well as doing a complete re-install of ML.
My iTunes Match still acts a little buggy, but a least I'm able to access my music. The only way to solve this issue IMO is to get Apple support to assist you the way I described. Don't waste time talking to a low level person, because they won't know how to help you (unless they're getting so many calls on this they've sorted it out). Also, since this is a ML issue, you won't be charged.
Hope this helps.

Can't get past white loading a screen after restoring from time machine backup

I am aware there are others threads of my problem however they date back years ago and after trying their solutions it still does not work.
After using Time Machine to restore my hard drive from a backup, I can't get past the white loading screen with apple logo after system restart during restore process. Ive gone into disk utility and repaired hard drive - it's fine. So I know this is a software glitch. I've also tried resetting SMC & PRAM (whatever those mean). No success and i cannot get past the white loading screen.
I'm running Mavericks (latest) on a late 2009 iMac. Thank you!

If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

Can't get past a grey "you need to restart your computer screen"

Hello,
I have a few month old iMac 27" i7 quad core for music use and did an update this morning which consisted of an itunes update and update to the screen firmware and two other things I can't remember. Do the usual install and restart business and am now met with the following error:
panic(cpu 0 caller 0x558271): "Unable to find device driver for this platform: \"ACPI". \n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1504.3.12......................
Debugger called: <panic>
Backtrace (CPU 0) , Frame: Return Address (4 potential args on stack)
7 lines of numbers and letters (please let me know if you need these)
BSD process name correspoding to current thread: Unknown
Mac OS Version:
Not yet set
Kernal Version:
Darwin Kernel Version 10.3.0...............
System uptime in nanoseconds: 322691563
This is on the grey screen with the multi lingual "you need to restart your computer message"
Holding shift on startup bypasses the screen and allows me to eject the disk and boot in safe mode or whatever it's called but the bar down the bottom fills up and I'm just left with the rotating bars and the apple logo.
I have tried a few different suggestions I have found on other threads about holding a certain key to start in safe mode or something to that effect but nothing has worked.
I have inserted the OSX install dvd that came with the computer and restarted but that did nothing and now I cannot eject it.
I have backed up a lot of the stuff on there but it will be a huuuuuge inconvenience if I lose the data on this thing.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Stephen

This is called a "kernel panic" (the multi-lingual restart screen). Solving them can be tricky. From the sounds of it, you can probably rule out hardware, but you probably have pretty severe system damage, probably caused by bad hard drive damage. But without more information, it's hard to say. Try looking over [the X Lab FAQ on resolving kernel panics|http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html].

ITunes Match can't get past Step 1 since Mountain Loin OS upgrade

Been using iTunes Match (ITM) since it lauched with no issues. Since upgrading to Mountain Loin, ITM just keeps invoking Step 1 every few mins and then quits after the results are returned from Apple. I tried turning off Genius and ITM and then only turning ITM back on with the same results. Anyone else had this same issue and found a resolution to this problem?

Can't get past step 2 of Migration Assistant

I am trying to transfer files from my iMac to new iBook via firewire, TDM. When I select the User in Step 1 (Me), and select Migrate Files and Folders in Step 2, continuing on to Step 3 never shows a volume to choose from. I can'c continue from there, the button is greyed out.
It says at the bottom in red that there is -13.5GB space remaining, so I am assuming this is the problem. I think it thinks I want me entire iMac transferred, because there is nothing on the iBook yet. I've only been using my mac for a year so I am still not sure of everything.
Mainly, I want to transfer some iPhoto albums, iTunes, and iCal. I tried dragging some programs from the iMac Target Disk to the same app in the iBook but it didn't show up. I am not sure what file to pull over for the iTunes music and likewise for the photo's. I was hoping Migration Assistant was going to walk me through it.

Yes, I figured it would take awhile to burn, but like I said before, the burning icon stops moving after a long while, that's when I check it's status, and it tells me that "idvd is not responding"...
And yes, after I got this dvd burner installed, now I can see that Patchburn program on my desktop, although, I'm not quite sure if I need to do anything on it since the idvd is reading the burner...
And about my project,
well, my project involves 6 short videos...
and all combined they are most definitely less than 60 minutes...
(all combined they are about 30 minutes, at the most.)
They were created in Final Cut and then I exported each of the 6 videos as Quicktime files then saved them in a folder specifically for them...
that way, I thought, I could just import them from idvd straight from that file without any confusion or problem...
Also, I don't know if this would matter or not, but I have Final Cut 2, and that program is on the system 9, (so I have to restart my computer to get there of course) so after I do all the importing and exporting on Final Cut and save my quicktime files in the folder and such on the system 9, I then restart my computer back to the system 10, and from there I fixed up my idvd project(like the menus and music and such) and then I imported my quicktime files on to my project...
so my question is, would the whole different system thing be what's causing the problem?
Should I make my videos as quicktime files on the system 10 instead of the sys 9?
Also, as I mentioned before...I installed another internal hard drive...
and I'm saving all my videos, quicktime files, and my idvd project on there...
does it matter that I'm saving it all on the "extra" hard drive?
or do I have to work out of the original one?
(I know this may be a stupid question, but I'm just trying to ask everything that I was thinking could be the problem)

Trying to purchase Creative Cloud, but I can't get past step 4 of checkout

It just hangs, and hangs. tried on 3 different computers (2 macbook pros and an iMac).
see screenshot

still doing it, with one noticeable difference - the checkout told me that the address didn't match the credit card and i had to re-enter the CC info. Once I did that it went to step 4 and stayed there again.
Is there a way to purchase by phone?

ITunes Match won't get past Step 1

Hi,
I know a lot of people are having trouble with getting past Step 2 at the moment in iTunes Match, but I was just wondering if anyone else was having troubles getting past Step 1? Last night, even just trying to match one song, I was stuck at Step 2, but this morning, it's not even getting past Step 1 (when it had always previously done this very fast), just saying "Sending information to Apple" forever! Just wondering if anyone else had experienced this. Thanks!

I have the same problem. Neither Genius nor iTunes Match will get past Step 1. They have worked in the past so there must be some hang up with added music or a change in the backend.
I have tried deleting iTunes Library Extras.itdb and iTunes Library Genius.itdb, and while this does cause the process to restart it doesn't allow it to complete.
Help!

New Iphone 4s won't sync, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'???

New Iphone 4s won't sync off my computer, can't get past 'syncing calendars step 2 of 6'. Got 1/3 of old apps, and contacts, but a 2/3 of my old apps are on the computer.... not real computer savvy, any suggestions?

no no a hard reset is just something you do to the phone, you wont lose any data or anything else its litterally like starting your phone on a fresh slate running wise but you wont lose anything at all, all your apps settings etc will still be right as you left it. think of it as a step above turning it off and on again

Hey there!
I've spent the best part of the day unpicking this huge mess from the upgrade I completed last night - what a nightmare. I followed a tonne of advice - [actaully, this link was really helpful to me]: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/msvcr80-dll-not-found-missing -error.htm however, I still could not fix the **** thing - and that was following basically a day of uninstalling, installing etc.
In the end - I completed a system restore taking my computer back about five days, and just ignoring the new upgrade with itunes until they can get this fixed.
I hope that this might work for you and anyone else reading this. It nearly drove me to drink [!]. I seemed to get past one error message and have it replaced by another - so the system restore was basically the last resort.
Good luck - !
