Is the screensaver supposed to run during iTunes playback?

I've been listening to an audiobook for a couple of hours straight today. I've been using a mix of my Apple Remote (the small white one) the dedicated iTunes buttons on my keyboard, and my mouse, to pause and play the audiobook over the course of said time. At no point did the screensaver (Marine Aquarium) ever kick in during playback. The cpu acknowledged that there was activity happening and never allowed the screensaver to run.
At some point, I paused playback for about 15 minutes, then resumed again. Since then, my screensaver kicks in as it would when there is no activity from the cpu, even though there is.
Why is it all of a sudden kicking in? And how do I stop?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
My setup, by the way, is a 27" iMac running 10.6.2 and the latest version of iTunes and all software updates.

Sometimes, the Mac just turns off the display and it stays there, without being into sleep. If you hear fans, it shows that your computer isn't sleeping. Normally it's caused by an app, but a SMC reset may help > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

Okay so my phone crashes approximately every 30 seconds. I have tried resetting it by DPU as well as on the phone itself. Once in awhile i get an error message about unknown error 1. If i look at the diagnosis or if runs on itunes i get the following. When I called the support at AT&T they think the phone is shot and it is a hardware thing but i have a hard time believing that when it happened when I sync'd it to my computer. It did get progressively worse though, at first it crashed not that often and then got worse. So restores are failing, recovery, everything. Anyone run into this?

Os x 10.7.3 MacBook pro sleeps during iTunes playback

Hi since updating to 10.7.3 my MacBook Pro seems to go to sleep during iTunes playback and apple tv viewing. I've changes the sleep setting to 3hrs andinstalled "jiggle" which doesn't seem to work and to be honest it doesn't seem right to a) have to install a 3rd party app to beat the system b) be good for the expensive device to remain on....
Any suggestions as to what is wrong and what I can do?

How to let the user know the application is still running during SQLite reads

I'm using an SQLite database to read and write to my application. In some places it has to do very large reads and writes and the application comes to a standstill for like 10 seconds while this is happening. I've tried calling showBusyCursor(), but it only works if I call that function and then set a timer to execute the sql query. But the busy cursor also freezes once the connection starts.
Why doesn't the showBusyCursor work during this time? Are there any other things I can do to the application to ensure the user that it is not frozen and just processing?

Keep in mind that I haven't actually implemented this yet, but my path is headed right in that direction in the next few days. From wh
at I have read you can access the database in two modes: synchronous and asynchronous. From your description it sounds like you are accessing the database in synchronous mode, which will stop the application thread until the database thread is completed.
To get around that limitation you will want to run your database accesses in asynchronous mode, so that the application will continue running while the database is being accessed. What you do then is implement a listener on the database that will call a function that will hide the waiting cursor or image. Then you start the waiting indicator in the application. Once the database is done, it will trigger your listener and remove the waiting indicator, allowing the user to once again interact with your app.
Hope this helps!

Is the screen supposed to flash during sleep?

Just got the new 17". When I put the computer to sleep, not only does the blue sleep light flash on the front latch, but the right side of the screen flashes a dim white as well (at a constant rate, but different pace than the latch light).
Is this a new "feature" or is something defective here?
I also noticed that the Apple logo on the back flashes during sleep (most noticeable when the lid is closed). Maybe this IS an inteded feature after all. Sure is annoying though...

Merci pour le truc, j'avais le même problème et cela l'a résolu (sans avoir besoin de désinstaller MS Office). Je suppose que le problème était que le tube fluorescent de l'affichage captait l'énergie émise par le module bluetooth.
The same in English:
To solve the "flashing in sleep" problem, desactivate the following bluetooth option in system preferences: "Allow devices to wake this computer".
It think that the explanation is that when this bluetooth option is active, the transmitter is activated at regular intervals. The fluorescent tube next to the antenna picks up some of the energy and emits a faint glow.

If I am the one asking such kind of question, my motive would be to check what the person comes up with, an answer just for the sake of it or be more open towards discussion.

Plantronics Voyager 855 unable to lower volume during iPod playback

I wasn't sure if this should be in 3GS or music and video, so I figured I would pick one.
I have a 3GS 32gb running version 3.1. The problem I have is during iPod playback. My Voyager 855 locks the volume slider on the phone at half way. Using the volume control ON THE HEADSET, I can increase the volume and see the volume slider on the phone increase correspondingly up to the point that the music is very loud. But, when I try to turn the music down, again using the volume controls ON THE HEADSET, the slider on the phone will only go down to the halfway point. I can continue to click the volume down button ON THE HEADSET and the button will beep along with a split second decrease in volume but as soon as the button is released the volume has not changed-it remains at the halfway point. I have this problem with watching youtube videos, everything, EXCEPT for on the rainfall app that I have. I can increase/decrease the volume all the way up or down to the point that I can no longer hear the rain or until it is so loud it hurts my ears. This is very frustrating as I would really like to use this headset while reading and for sleeping, but the iPod function is just too loud. My friend has a 3G 8gb with the exact same headset and he does not have this problem. Is this a feature/limitation of the 3GS?

Yeah, ha ha, that is my post to Plantronics and their reply to me. I tried what you suggested and no go:
Un pairing, rebooting, and re pairing did not result in a fix. I still have the same problem. I tried it on my wifes phone-hers is running 3.1.3, and no-go, it had the same problem.
The volume slider works when the music is not outputed through the headset. When through the iPhone speaker, it works as it should-the volume is able to be adjusted up and down via the slider. Videos behave as they should, any program that needs to be adjusted via the volume slider or the rocker button on the side of the phone works as it should. To expand on what I stated eariler: while using the iPod function I can set the slider all the way to the left (volume 0), press the option for output and set it to the headset. When I do that, there is a split second where you can see the slider move from the left to the middle, and then the slider disappears. It's almost as though the headset is resetting the default/baseline sound level from 0 to 50 (if we are working on a 0-100 scale). I can increase the volume using the buttons on the headset, and I can lower the volume only to half way. If I then select the option for sound output and change it back to speaker, the slider reappears, and it is all the way to the left where I originally set it. This is very frustrating. I can understand Plantronics response. but they are wrong. I can control the loudness of music via the iPod application. I guess maybe this is just a hiccup I will have to deal with. I have placed a request to Apple that they fix this. Maybe in the next upgrade they will, or at least add an option where you can adjust it in the settings.

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS.I've never had this problem before... today I opened iTunes and it prompted me to download the newest version. I use iTunes all the time and have updated it multiple times with no issues. During the installation process it gave me an error message that said:
Runtime error!
Program C:\Program Files\iTunes.exe
R0634
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
I quit the installation, uninstalled iTunes and rebooted my computer. I now receive a similar message with a slight difference:
Runtime error!

I did not leave anything out from the error message. It doesn't point to a specific file, it just ends with "(x86)..." Every time I boot up my computer, this error message pops up on my desktop.
How do I repair this issue? I have found multiple suggested solutions but am unsure which one is the best, and I don't want to try a bunch of different things for fear I may make the problem worse. I would like to try and fix this myself if possible but I need to know if that is really possible or if I need to take my computer to someone for repairs. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!

Hi lustyln,
I'm having a little trouble understanding all of what you are trying to explain. From what I can tell, it sounds like your PC has a lot of software problems and you want to know what is supposed to be there and what isn't.
For reference, here are your product specifications:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01893242&lc=en&product=4043282
To get your PC software back to how it was when it was first purchased, run a system recovery:

Ok I cant find a way to fix this so I basically cant use my Verizon Iphone 4 because it wont connect on an old version...

OK. You may have to reinstall everything from scratch but follow following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components
3. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch

I've downloaded Itunes, but my computer says that the app won't run on my PC. What do I do?

I just recently got a new laptop with Windows 8. However after I downloaded Itunes I clicked on the program and I get a message that says that the app can not run on this PC. I've tried running the troubleshoot compadibility multiple times and it still does not work. I've tried downloading the newest version and the one before that, and neither are working. What do I do?

I get an error message saying that this app can't run on my pc and that I need to find a version that will work through my administrator.
That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

iTunes could not sync ^0 to the iPhone Unknown Error (-19) during 2.1 update
Anybody getting this? On a Win XP iTunes 8/ iPhone 3G
Thanks for any help!

I got this message. After several hours of frustration...
I finally did a successful update by following various recommendations in this thread.
Maybe all or only a combination were necessary:
1) Deleted my backups. This DOES appear to be necessary, I noticed that the update was always failing when the update was going through the backup process. It was only after I deleted my backups that the update finally worked. To do this, in iTunes go to Edit > Preferences. Click on the Devices tab. Click on (select) the iPhone in the window. Click on the "Delete Backup" button.
2) Disable automatic syncing for the iPhone (don't know if this was necessary but it's one of the steps I took)
3) Make sure all your Apps are updated before trying the iPhone update. (Again I don't know if this was necessary but I did it). I updated my apps over wi-fi from the iPhone rather than via iTunes.
Important!!!!! After you run the update there will be no backup of your iPhone. You need to create a new one. To do this, right click (option-click) on your iPhone in the "Devices" list of iTunes. Select "Back Up" from the context menu.
Hope this helps!!!!

i have Sony Vaio VGN-N11M, 32Bits. i used to run windows XP and iTunes was working fine, after installing windows 7, i tried to install iTunes but it freezes during installation, and i have to reboot.
i Created a New User Account but the same problem happened, also Removed iTunes Plug-ins, checked the Conflicting Processes and Disconnected the computer from the Internet whilst installation but still the same thing keep happening.
i though it maybe because i had old slow RAM so i upgraded to 2GB RAM but still the same problem. i havent updated/backed up my phone for two month and the phone now is being funny too
i need help

I'm having the same issue trying to install a new out of the box copy of XP home.
It says "session3initializationfailed" I then have to reboot with the power button. It does it every time. The Windows is SP2.
Ditto for me. BootCamp fails to install XP Home SP2. I have a legal full version bought from Best Buy. Partition is created fine, but get this error when Windows is being loaded: SESSION3INITIALIZATIONFAILED.
I have no clue what to do, other than purchase Vista Home Edition and give it a go.

Is the screensaver supposed to run during iTunes playback?
