Itunes 10.6 radio tuner

Is anyone else having a problem with the itunes radio tuner working after upgrading? when I access the radio stations it says " Contacting tuning service refreshing Eclectic" and it hangs there forever. I had problems with this before the upgrade then it seemed to be repaired, now it is happening again.

Update:
I also noticed that version 10.5 doesn't prompt for Proxy credentials while version 10.6 does...
thanks in advance

  • How does one get a radio station listed in the iTunes Radio Tuner?

    Hi!
    I am CIO for Head On Radio Network, http://www.headonradionetwork.com
    We have a live 24/7 Liberal/Progressive political talk radio stream which may be found at http://server2.whiterosesociety.org:8000/HeadOnRadioHQ and we would very much like to have this listed in the iTunes Radio Tuner.
    We produce 60 hours of original programming every week, and also have permission to do a "The Best Of The Mike Malloy Show" in the wake of his firing by Air America, and that is appearing at 10pm ET every weeknight. When we are not live, we replay recent shows from the live stream.
    I think that having HORN on the iTunes player would be an asset to Apple.
    Who do I contact? Is there some sort of application form?
    Thank you all so much!

    Sorry, but there's no mechanism for getting a station added to the iTunes Tuner list. No one outside of Apple knows who's running the server that maintains the list since 3Com shut down Kerbango, the previous host of the list, and for some unknown reason Apple has not provided any way of contacting the current provider or administrator for making changes or additions.
    I can only guess why this is the case; perhaps Apple doesn't want to bog iTunes down with potentially a huge list of stations (there are after all hundreds if not thousands of iTunes-compatible streams available) and so only provides a sampling.
    You might want to consider listing your station through Live 365 or ShoutCast or another such streaming service. That would get it to the attention of a lot of people.

  • Work around for radio tuner service not working

    A work around for the lack of radio tuner service that has appearently hit Itunes versions lower than 11.
    We all hope that Apple will restore Radio Tuner Service for us legacy products users soon, but I've been thrown under the bus more than once by Apple in the last 25 yrs to put much hope in that (I started with an Apple III w/a Z80 card running C/PM, yeah I'm that old)
    Have your iTunes and your favorite browser open.
    In your browser go to http://vtuner.com/setupapp/guide/asp/BrowseStations/startpage.asp
    This will give you a list of Genre's, etc of streaming internet stations.
    When you select a genre you'll get a list of stations that shows station ID, what type of feed codec and data rate.
    Select any of the AAC or MP3 feeds.
    Select play.
    This will send a small download file to your computer containing the selected feeds URL.
    Your computer will ask what app to use to open the file, select iTunes.
    This will automatically open a file called Internet Songs at the end of Playlists in iTunes (if you don't already have one), and will install the URL there. 
    All the stations you selected will now be permanently stored in Internet Songs.
    Viola, your very own custom personal internet radio playlist!

    Apperently iTunes 11 is not affected (Apple stil makes iTunes11 for the 14 yr old Microsoft XP OS, but not for anything PPCs can run. Go figure)
    "Next door" to Steve was metaphoric, he lived in Los Altos, about 15 miles away, but he cast a big shadow!
    On 9.2.1/10.4.11 differences, some time in the past someone selected 'save file' and checked the box 'don't ask again' on your computers dialog box. That's why you're not given a choice wih the file downloads. I would think that selection should be able to be reversed.
    iTunes 9.2.1/OS10.4.11 puts those downloaded URLs into the Music Libary of iTunes, no matter if it's opened directly, or you click on the file on your desktop. You can create a new playlist, highlight the selection in the Music Libary, and drag it to your new playlist to keep alll the steaming URLs together. NOTE, this only creates an alias, the URL copied by iTunes must remain in the Music Libary. You can then delete the the files on the desktop, if you want. I did multiple stations this way in 9.2.1, they all show in either the new playlist created, or in the Music Libary, and remain after the desktop files are deleted and trash emptied.
    You can switch sations by double clicking them. Another note, all the URLs were all from vtune.
    I hope this helps.
    PS, I forgot how clunky Tiger is compared to Leopard...

  • Radio tuner not working?

    All of a sudden, the radio tuner is not working. The message I get is  "An error occurred while contacting the radio tuning service. Check your Internet connection, or try again later". 
    This tells me nothing.  My internet connection is fine for everything except this.  When I went into Help, this is what came up: "You can also choose iTunes > Preferences, click Advanced, and choose Large from the Streaming Buffer Size pop-up menu".  There is no such pop-up menu or even any reference to Streaming Buffer Size.
    Does anyone know about this?

    Does anyone know about this?
    Only about the other 500 people who have posted about this issue in the last 48 hours (browse the forum).  Some have issues; others, like me, do not.  I suspect the only thing to do is be patient.  Oh, you can always report it to Apple, but I suspect they know about it.

  • Lost radio tuner with Win 7 install

    Hello,
      I recently installed Win 7 over Vista on my HP M8100n  desktop. The radio tuner no longer works on the Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1600 NTSC/ATSC combo card, through Windows Media Center. The TV tuner still works fine. When opening the radio application in WMC, a small window opens saying "To play FM radio, you must first install a radio tuner". I have tried the Hauppauge driver 18drv_28021. 
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I wana know about radio tuner use in laptop hp 620.

  • Use iTunes for internet radio - settings question

    Hi all,
    I have a Linn Klimax DS (digital streaming) unit as part of an audio system, and that's being fed over my Cat5 network by a Twonky MediaServer installed on one of my mac's. That Twonky setup has SHOUTcast enabled and was serving internet radio fine and identified the stations until I installed iTunes 8 yesterday. I made the mistake of clicking on the button that says 'Use iTunes for Internet radio' in the preferences-> advanced->general pane.
    Basically, I need to find out what precisely that setting actually does under the hood, so I can use the command line to reset that, turn it off, or undo basically what it did set.
    Hope someone can shed a bit of light on that, maybe even just a hint, as I have been through the console logs, but haven't seen anything that jumps out at me. Thanks in advance for any help.
    Chris

    It's in Preferences>Advanced>General.
    Hope this helps.

  • What happened to iTunes News Talk radio feed? Am no longer able to access the News Talk radio menu

    When I try to open up the iTunes News Talk radio menu, the message says iTunes is contacting the Tuning Service but nothing ever happens.
    Has the News Talk option been eliminated from iTunes Radio?

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • Qosmio F30 and Radio tuner for WMC

    Hi,
    I found software (radio tuner) but the problem is I couldn't run it. I don't have hardware (Floppy disk drive) to run on it.
    And maybe it is not compatible for my Qosmio F30. Is there any another software that compatible for laptop?

    I saw your posting where you asked about this software. Why you didnt wrote there where you found it exactly. This can help other forum users.
    Sorry but it is not so cool just to ask something, read answers and ignore what other people wrote to you.
    So if you have European notebook model it will probably not work. As far as I know US models have this function.

    weird very weird. today i did this again today after already being unsuccessful earlier. exactly the same thing as i have done before, exactly. didn't try to import. didn't say damaged library, copied everything in including date. have tried it about 10 times no luck. today it just worked.
    how weird is that?
    oh well JG - maybe you mixed a magic potion for me?
    anyway, thank you for all the help.
    to anyone else reading this all i can say is keep trying, you never know. follow the above advice. you may feel exasperated and think you have done it already, but keep trying.

  • Difference between iTunes Home Sharing and Tune Ranger

    Could someone describe the differences between the Home Sharing feature in iTunes and the product Tune Ranger? I guess I'm trying to find out if the Tune Ranger product is worth having if I've got Home Sharing enabled on all my iTunes machines.
    TIA
    -JP

    Home Sharing just makes the tracks available for copying. It does not do the actual copying itself; you have to select what you want to copy. It's in principle no different than using a CD, USB flash drive or other external media, just more convenient. Utilities such as Tune Ranger are designed to keep two iTunes libraries identical, so it will identify and copy any changes automatically. Which you choose will depend on what you want, identical libraries or just the ability to copy some content from one computer to another.
    For more information on Home Sharing, see:
