ITunes 10.5 freezes during installation

We had trouble with iTunes locking up after upgrading to 10.3.  I uninstalled 10.3 according to the directions on the Apple website and tried installing 10.5.  During 10.5 installation the install program stops.  The blue bar stops going across about 3/4 of the way.
Any help is appreciated.

Repair youe Apple Software Update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install.
If you don't find ASU in All Programs, go to Control Panel, Add & Remove Programs.

  • Installing Leopard freezes during installation..

    hi.
    im updating my old tiger powermac to leopard and its freezing during installation..
    i cant take the disc out and try the original discs as it seems like it needs the disc to boot from.
    ive held down the space bar but it doesnt eject.
    any ideas?
    thanks

    hi.
    i have both discs (leopard and snow leopard as retail)...
    at the moment it wont start in safe mode... it just doesnt startup and until i take my finger off shift it wont go anywhere other than the white apple screen.
    i have tried dragging the install disc using disc utility to the macHD and erase the destination... now all it has done is create a clone of the install disc on the internal HD.
    I put my other mac in target disc mode with the snow leopard disc in and tried to use startup disc to restart from it but it didnt show up as available... so im stuck...
    i cant eject the disc, its not installing properly and my internal HD isnt bootable...
    any ideas?

  • Can't install latest version of itunes. "Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified." Help?

    Can't install latest version of itunes. "Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified." Help?

    I had this, and after a large number of fruitless attempts, I had to reload Windows, which solved it. This was of course a real pain, but I had to do it since updating iTunes was necessary in order to get the new iOS version. But before doing such a drastic thing, you could try to restore Windows to a previous point in time by picking a restore point. This of course presumes that you really have some issues with your Windows (which I had) and that you can make a decent guess on when the system was ok (which I couldn't), i.e that you can decide a good date to restore to.

    Hi Epski
    Let us know how you go as i'm having the same issue also. I upgraded to yosemite and itunes 12 at the same time and thought the OS upgrade was the issue. I downgraded back to Mavericks again (for lots of reasons i won't go in to here) thinking this would fix the problem but it didn't.
    When i play any video content from itunes 12 in full screen goes dark once the controls fade away. QT, appletv or anything else plays them perfectly, as per itunes 11!

  • Itunes 7.7.1 freezes during installation

    When i try to install Itunes 7.7.1 the installations freezes (it looks likes it's still working on it. but i've tried waiting for hours and nothing happens) as soon as i gets to the "installation" part.
    It's the same both when i use the software updater, and when i try to download the installer directly from apple.com
    i'm useing Maac OS X 10.4.11, and i don't have any old versions of itunes installed.
    Anyone got any suggestions as to what i can try?

    I have exactly the same issues with my new 80G iPOD. I have found that when connecting to my PC, the iPOD does not start iTUNES 7. This can be resolved by stopping the iPOD Service in Computer Management, connecting the iPOD and then starting it again. Then when you start iTUNES it finds the iPOD. - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
    Seems like a stupid long-winded way to do things, but at least you can get some stuff on to your iPOD.
    As far as using Restore goes - I just get the restoring iPOD message you described, which it blatantly isn't :((

  • Itunes and ipod freeze during sync

    hello,
    firstly, i would like to thank all you kind souls who post to this forum with very helpful suggestions. you have helped me with many past difficulties.
    my present issue concerns transferring songs from itunes to my ipod (4th generation). here's the story:
    on friday, my ipod started acting funny (skipping songs, etc.). by saturday, it would no longer do anything (folder with !, resetting did not help). this had happened to me before so i did not freak out and figured i just had to restore (that had worked the first time around). however, when i plugged in my ipod to my computer (powerbook g4, just three weeks old), it was not recognised and i was prompted to initialize the disk. i then came to this forum and read pretty much everything related to this kind of problem. countless resets, erases, partitions, etc., later, i was able to get the ipod software back on the ipod. it seemed all normal but there was no music on it (makes sense since i'd restored it). but then...when i plugged in my ipod to sync it with itunes, it would freeze at a given song (not always the same one, sometimes 31 songs into it, sometimes 500). i came back to this forum and read that i should reset my ports, which i did. didn't help, the sync still freezes both the ipod and itunes.
    so that's where i'm at: i have the ipod software on the ipod, but i can't sync it with itunes (i.e. i can't get my music onto it). my brother thinks i have bad blocks (or sectors). is this a possibility? the ipod does make some noise (not sure whether it's the infamous clicking...).
    so here are my questions:
    1) is there anything i haven't done yet that could get the ipod to sync with itunes?
    assuming i have done everything and the problem is with my ipod's hard disk:
    2) would a program like disk warrior potentially be able to fix the ipod?
    3) would it cost me less to have the ipod serviced than to buy disk warrior?
    4) is there somekind of open-source or freeware disk repair utility that could perhaps repair my ipod's disk?
    thanks for reading and i really look forward to any suggestions.
    gen
    p.s. the ipod's more than a year old, so no longer under warranty.

    Okay, I got it to work tonight...
    My U2 iPod would freeze while syncing. I restored and tried to sync and it would freeze on different song #'s. All the while I heard a clicking sound coming from the drive that I never noticed before. It would just click once in a while, not repeatedly.
    My fix: (a version of the carpet drop) While the iPod was on and spinning, I held it tight with my right hand, facing me and smacked it's side into the palm of my left hand, simulating the amount of force that it would incurr from a waist-high drop onto carpet.
    Now, this force was sheer approximation, being that it would be too time consuming and difficult to calculate this exact amount of force. I mean, my waist may be higher/lower than the original carpet-dropper, and not to mention the plushness of the carpet! Who knows if he did it on Shenandoah Shagg or maybe just some Bermuda Burr Rug?!
    By the way, the problem started after being left out in the car on recent cold nights... hmmmm, my iPod thinks me a jerk.
    Anyways, here are some previous attempts at fixing my situation (in no particular order):
    1) restored from 5 different iPod updates (2004-11-15, 2005-02-22, 2005-06-26, 2005-09-23, 2005-11-17)
    2) tried to fix with Disk Utility
    3) tried to fix with Tech Tool Pro
    4) tried to fix with Disk Warrior
    5) tried to initialize multiple time (even writing zeroes)
    6) manual sync

  • Acrobat 10.1.4 on mac freezes during installation

    Acrobat update downloaded and started to install on my Mac but froze during installation and will not allow me to do anything.  I can not quit out of the installation or restart my computer.  Any suggestions???

    Holding the power key on your computer should allow you to restart your computer. You can also try to force quit the installer.

  • ITunes Summary Page Freezes During AutoSync

    When I connect my 5th generation iPod video and start to auto sync, itunes freezes up at the Summary Page after a few seconds. I have to power down in order to unfreeze. I have two users on my laptop. This problem doesn't occur for the other user. HELP
    Dell   Windows XP   Laptop

    This happened to me as well and this is what I did:
    My iPod had been recently restored and, by default, taken out of disc mode. So, I couldn't access iTunes through the account that it had been previously set up to. Everytime I plugged it in, iTunes would open and automatically go to the iPod sumary page. It'd then try to update, but freeze and turn white. iTunes was frozen. So I logged onto the other account and put the iPod in disc mode (because iTunes wasn't freezing on the second account) and it worked with the first account again. iTunes was on both accounts. I suggest you try this, though it may not be the answer. Hope this helps.

  • Trying to re-install Acrobat 8, everything freezes during installation & have to reboot

    Hello. I've been having problems with my Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard software for months now. At some point, it got so dysfunctional that I was no longer able to create new PDF files, although I could still add comments and mark-up existiing PDFs. So finally, I decided to uninstall and re-install the software, hoping that this would solve the problem. Well, the uninstall went great, but then re-installing turned out to be impossible, apparently. I successfully downloaded the .exe file (all 327MB of it). But whenever I start the installation, once it get to the point where I'm asked to enter the Serial Number (and I do manually, as for some reason it doesn't allow me to paste it into the form in the dialog box), then it says that the installation of the components is starting (or something like that), and then the installation freezes, my entire computer freezes, and I have to do a forced shut-down. When I reboot, nothing has been saved of the installation procedure, and I have to start all over again. This has now happened three times, exactly the same way, and I'm getting extremely frustrated. I paid $320 for this software, so I expected it to last more than 3 years!
    Please help me to resolve this problem - as simply and as quickly as possible! Thanks.

    Hi Gautham,
    Thanks so much for your response. I have an Acer TravelMate 6292 that runs Windows Vista Business. I have to say that when I first bought and installed the Acrobat 8.0, the PDF maker crashed frequently, but over time, as updates and fixes became available, it performed much better. But then a few months ago, it stopped allowing me to create new PDFs, which is a major drawback, obviously. That's why I decided finally to uninstall and reinstall, hoping that this would solve the problem. It seems I was very wrong!
    As for other hardware or software changes, I have over time installed what most people have, probably, like my Canon and HP printers and scanners, McAfee anti-virus, iTunes, Nero, Skype, WinRAR, 'File-zilla', Open Freely, and so on. There is one weird software that got installed when I bought an external disc-drive: it's called 'ODD firmware' and I can't seem to get rid of it (it doesn't uninstall). But I don't know if that would affect the Acrobat.
    Thanks for any help you might be able to give.

  • Itunes 9.2 freezes during playback

    Recently during playback, video or audio will freeze for a couple of seconds and then continue. This happens more often during movie playback. It usually happens about an hour into a movie, but will also happen during song playback. I usually end up stopping and exiting and then resuming playback.
    Suggestions?

    I get the exact same thing. Although it happens with all video related content even after a few seconds. Every 5 seconds or so, the video skips, hiccups, freezes, lags, is choppy... whatever you want to call it. It happens on music videos, purchased videos, and video podcasts. It doesn't seem to matter that this video resides locally on my hard drive and is not streaming across the Internet or a network. Is this a memory cache buffering issue? Is this a video card issue? Does anyone have any thoughts? Another thought: I have a very large iTunes library = over 55,000 songs, videos, podcasts, etc. Perhaps this is affecting playback of videos? My computer is beefed up and max'ed out with all the available RAM, I have a brand new logic board (motherboard + video card) and have a freshly installed Snow Leopard system as of 6 weeks ago. This video playback issue is unacceptable! Thoughts?

  • Freeze during installation of XP with ms-6547

    I bought a ms-6547 (MSI 645 Ultra-C) last year and tried to make it run at least once in vain!!!! The problem is that the computer freezes when loading the drivers during the installation of Win XP Pro   and I still don't understand why... I gave up after one month work on it but last week I decided to try again. Here is my config:
    -CPU: P4 1.6a fsb 400
    -Bios: 3.3
    -ram: 256 DDR 2100 Dane Elec (I have 3 modules so I tried them all they have hynix, samsung and the last one is winbond chips) tested with memtest during 48h (ok)
    -HDD: IBM 20Go 7200rpm
    -Graphic card: Geforce 2 Ti (leadteck) or Geforce 4 MX 440 (leadteck) (I tested both)
    -CD-Rom: I tried all those I had (about 5-6 different cd-roms) but it doesn't change anything
    -PCI: none but i would like to add a network adapter in the far future when this jklfghnglhbndflhbn machine will work!!!!
    I tried to desactivate the onboard usb and audio but still the same!
    Can anyone tell me what to do or give me a bios setup that can make it run?
    Please help i am turning mad. I wanted to build a cheap machine and now it is a financial desaster  

    Ok, I'm having similar problems here.  Let me start off with my story.
    Got an 865PE Neo2-PFISR.  Hooked it up with an SATA HDD, 160GB.  I set the Integraged Peripherals to S-ATA mode and When I ran the XP CD, it would load the drivers and at the "Setup is starting Windows" screen, I would get a Blue error screen.
    Turns out I needed to set the Integrated Peripherals to "Native Mode" rather than "Legacy mode" and also "S-ATA".
    When I loaded windows, it set up just fine.  Got into windows and voila, no prob, was running pretty good.
    then, DUN, DUN, DUN, the 400W PSU went on me, I had to diagnose it and I want with a 500W Antec unit.
    So I wasn't too happy with the way windows was running, I decided to do a fresh install before I got back to normal.  I tried the XP CD with the correct bios settings, Loaded the drivers, got to the "Setup is starting Windows" screen and FROZE.  I jus can't get past that screen, even flashed my bios and nothing, tore the entire system down and rebuilt it, tried one stick of ram, nothing.
    Gave up with the fresh XP install, went back into the previously installed windows, and it ran fairly good.  But now, it keeps freezing in windows.  It will run fine under normal load, but as soon as I put some strain on the system (say I'm photoshoping and listening to MP3s or I'm watching a DVD, everything will freeze up and I have to restart.
    One funny thing I noticed when I restart from this freezing.  The reset button will not do.  If I reset from the freeze, It'll restart, but then I'll get stuck on the initial MSI screen.  So, everytime I freeze, I have to power down fully and restart.
    I highly doubt I have bad ram or processor or VGA, It's either the Mobo or some settings.  I contacted newegg and requested an RMA, So I'm going to start with a new board with an exchange.  I jus hate to pay for shipping now.
    Anyway, I'm using Geil Platinum DDR500 (PC4000) Dual channel Ram (1GB), this was on MSI's compatible memory List, so I don't think I'll have a problem with the ram.  I haven't attempted to overclock yet.
    Should I try other stuff (I'll have to rebuild the system again) or should I wait to receive a new board?

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.3 freezing during installation? Please help!

    I have a 13" Macbook with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and am trying to install Snow Leopard 10.6.3 (which I bought from the Apple store).  I am having trouble with the installation, as it freezes every time I get to a certain point in the "Installing" screen. It was freezing around the 40 min. mark, and so I tried the various options that the installation CD gave me. Such as going into disk utility and doing the "first aid" stuff where everything seemed to check out fine.  None of that helped, and it kept freezing at the same point, sometimes going all the way to a screen that says, "Install Failed, the installer could not copy the necessary support files."  I double checked all of the system requirements, and I originially didn't have enough memory, but freed up space for the installation.
    I then tried the last option on the installer troubleshooting by backing up my files on an external hard drive and then erasing the memory through disk utility.  Now I can't get back onto my original computer drive when selecting a startup disk, as it only lets me see the installation CD to select. Erasing didn't help, except that now it freezes at 29 minutes instead of 40. I can't even eject my CD, I'm assuming since there is nothing else for my computer to run on.  I'm not a genius with computers, but I was simply following the instructions that came with my software.  Now I can't even get back to those instructions, since they were only available on my previous hard drive, and not in the actual disk packaging (which seems kind of silly). I'm planning on calling Apple for support, hoping that I can get free support since I only bought this software a few days ago. However, any help in the meantime would be appreciated! Thanks!

  • Labview freezes during installation

    I have an enduser that I am setting up a repurprosed computer.  The computer was originally used by a summer marketing intern so there was never any NI software.  I was setting it up, and installed 8.6 by accident as the engineer then instructed me he preferred 2010 sp1.  I ran uninstall from the CLI as the GUI didnt have a way I found to uninstall it completely with one swoop.
    Yesterday it froze during the drivers disc, but now, I redid it after the uninstall and now it froze on the disc two - product 14 of 16: Currently installing Compilation Tools for Virtex-II FPGA Devices.  It has been sititng like this for the past hour. 
    The end user does have Xilinx Webpack previously installed, v.14.

    Exactly what happens when it "freezes"? Or, how do you know it freezes?
    If the rest of the code takes negligible time to execute, the 250 ms Wait in the last frame of the innermost sequence structrure will require >182 seconds to complete the nested for loops.  There are no indicators in those loops, so it would not be obvious whether the program was still running normally or not during those 3 minutes.
    Try putting indicators on the "i" terminals of the for loops. That will tell you whether the loops are executing, and when it freezez, you will be able to see how many iterations have completed.  Also put error indicators inside the loop so that you can see if any errors are reported. Unfortunately the Velmex driver does not report errors.
    Highlight Execution is useful for finding problems in code. But if the freeze occurs after several hundred iterations of the inner loop, you will grow old waiting to see what happens. A combination of Breakpoints and Highlight Execution is more versatile for troubleshooting loops.
    Sequence structures are almost never the appropriate choice for well written LabVIEW code. I would probably create several subVIs wrapping around the Velmex driver, with each subVI perfoming one task. Include error in and error out terminals (even if the Velmex driver does not return errors for most tasks) so that you can use dataflow for controlling the order of execution.
