ITunes 10 will not work properly.

After fixing it Friday, it's acted up again today I play a song, and what happens is a 10 second freeze, followed by it going to another window and me having to go through Task manager to close.
I'm tired of this Apple, fix the damned bugs.

Hang on everybody!
The problem is that the shortcut doesn't work, and this frequently occurs after an update. Presumably (although you haven't stated so), you can launch iTunes by using the Start/Programmes method. In which case, the very easiest solution is to create a new shortcut and delete the old one.
On a Windows machine, right-click in a blank area of the desktop (not on an icon) and from the menu, select New/Shortcut. Then use the Browse button to go to the folder where your iTunes.exe file is located. That should be something like C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe. (My Windows 7 is C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe)

    Hello there here is my problem. My itunes match will not sync properly. It shows a lot of songs over 100 with the icloud match status as "Waiting"
    Here is what i have done
    1. Reinstall the entire OS delete everything and start from scratch
    2. Turn on and off itunes match.
    3. Hold down the option key
    4. Move my music out of the music folder clear everything out of my itunes and bing back my music.
    5. Use backup copies of my music in case the music files had been corrupted.
    6. Checked numerious mac community forms that report simular issues.
    7. Tried another macbook pro that I have
    8. My wifes account which has about 8000 songs did no have the issue. My account seems to have the issue sobeservices2. I beleive this to be account specific. My account has 11481 songs and about 100 to 100 show with the status of "waiting"
    9. I get no error messages
    10. I've tried multiple ISP - COMCAST - FIOS - I even tried multiple computers
    11. Redid the entire os
    12. My account has problems "*****s2" but my wife account does not
    13. Replicated the issue on more then one computer it seems only has problems with my itunes account. Suck waiting to upload
    and its not always the same songs sometimes it's different songs that it gets suck waiting to upload.
    14. Removed the waiting songs and attempted again
    15. Started with fresh iTunes had the server match a blank itunes folder  to the point where it said "0 Songs Match" then re-added them
    16. Called Apple Care and spoke with a Senior Advisor who told me he would have to escalate a ticket and he to thought I had done all the tsing possible and that it was up to the engineers to figure out a solution.
    I have been working on this for about 4 weeks now. All my trouble shooting has pointed it to be an account specific issue.
    Any advise from the community

    Hi
    I have had a similar set of issues.  8000 songs, 800 in waiting.  All ripped from CD into Apple Lossless - mainly classical so most didn't match directly.
    First I ripped all these 8000 songs for my father first on his laptop from his CD collection.  Eventually got them all matched or uploaded to his Match account (except one) by the usual tricks people suggest (e.g. recoding as AIFF or MP3 etc, deleting, re-adding blah blah). Though of course I shouldn't really have to waste my time doing this.  One song absolutely refused to upload. Tried everything - including buying a pristine downloadable version off the publisher's website.  Still resolutely refuses to upload.
    Anyway - main problem is now with my PC. I copied all these 8000 tracks over. Re-installed everything etc.  800 remain in "waiting" (even though they uploaded Ok on a different account).  When I rip my own CDs even some common stuff (e.g. Bowie/Stones) gets uploaded instead or matched and often with one or two tracks stuck in 'waiting'.
    If I then look at my IPad (with Match enabled), it will show these waiting tracks as if they were already downloaded to it (which of course they are not). If I try and play one of them it just skips over it.

    Hello Anonymous.
    Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
    As for your problem, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

    my home button will not work properly... I have to hold it down several times for it to go to the home screen

    I would try a restore just to see if it could be something software related, but if that doesn't work I would recommend taking to an Apple Store to see if it is a serious hardware issue and if it is, assuming you're in warranty, then they would be able to replace your phone.

  • My garage band will not work properly with new lion upgrade..HELP

    My garage band will not work properly with new lion upgrade..HELP
    I have tried to open old session i have done in garage band and many of the effects and instruments I have used will not show up. The system seems to have a bug.

    If the graphical user interface looks broken, that is quite often a problem of corrupted user preferences - have you tried to remove the preferences file, as described in the FAQ
    http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/OddBallProbs.html
    Here is again the short version:
    Quit GarageBand, if it is running.
    Open your User Library in the Finder. It is hidden in MacOS X Lion, so use the Finder's "Go" menu:
    Finder > GO    hold down the "Options" key, until the library appears in the menu, select it.
    In the window that opens, open the folder "Preferences" and remove the file:com.apple.garageband.plist and com.apple.garageband.plist.lockfile
    Then try again to run GarageBand and download the loops.
    The preferences file stores all you user settings that you set using the "Preferences" panel in GarageBand, also the layout of the GarageBand window and the location of your recent projects. You will have to enter these settings again after removing the file.
    Regards

  • ITunes will not work properly on windows PC

    iTunes performance is slow and my devices will not synch properly after uninstalling and reinstalling the application 3 times on my windows PC. When I tried to update my phone, it took hours and failed to backup anything on my phone from July to now (Dec) and will not recognize my iPad.

  • HP computer will not work properly with an HP printer

    I have the following two items that I am trying to use together:
     - HP 23" TouchSmart Desktop, T6500 2.1GHz 4GB DDR3, 500GB HDD (Windows 7)
     - HP OfficeJet 6500 Multi-Function Printer/Scanner/Fax
    When I try to scan to Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0, the document goes through the scanner, however the dialog box that I would expect (e.g. "Next Page" or "Done") never shows up.  At this point, the system is unresponsive with respect to Adobe or the printer.
    I suspect that it is waiting for the input from the dialog box that never showed up.  I tried to move the other windows to see if the dialog opened in the background, however I am not able to select any of them (they remain frozen).
    I contacted HP Support, only to have them tell me it must be the driver, and I have an "old" printer.  (I did not realize that a 9 month old printer was considered "old").  I have tried all of the possible drivers that are available (original disk, downloads, other downloads from HP tech support), none of these resolves the problem.
    In any case, they were unable to resolve the problem of having an HP computer work properly with an HP printer.  (The printing function seems to work, just very slowly).
    Has anyone else heard of this?  Is there a resolution?

    Update: I am still looking for a solution to this problem - the scanning portion of the Multi-function OfficeJet 6500 does not work properly with the HP TouchSmart computer.
    I have not been able to find anyone in HP that can tell me when (or if) new drivers will be released for this printer.
    I decided to investigate upgrading to a newer version of printer since HP told me the 9 month old printer I have was "obsolete", only to find that the identical printer is still on sale in many stores.  Hmmm....
    I feel like I am getting the run-around from HP.
    I have since tried several more driver/software combinations, but every time I have the same problem (as described in the previous post).
    If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would be most happy to hear them.
    Thank you.

  • CC 2014.2 Illustrator and Photoshop will not work properly on 10.7.5

    I have recently download Illustrator and Photoshop CC 2014.2 on my MacBook Pro version 10.7.5.
    I notice some of the functions where not working properly. For example Bounding box in Illustrator will not appear for rectangle tool. Color strip on the color box will appear as sold color instead of strips of different colors for me to choose.
    I called the Adobe to find out why is this happening and they told me it was because I don't have the latest OS on my MAC. Do to company policy I can't upgrade my OS to the latest version. Adobe send me the link that is not working for two times and need the correct link ASAP.
    Can you guys please send me the right link for me to downgrade?
    Thank you

  • ITunes LP Bionic not working properly for iTunes

    Christina Aguilera's new iTunes LP Bionic does not work properly on iTunes 9.1.1 on my MacBook Pro 13" running Snow Leopard on 64-bit mode.
    It does work properly on iTunes on Windows 7 64-bit.
    This is how it does not work properly: It does not automatically refresh the display content when I have clicked on a menu item. It only refreshes the display when I move the scroll bars along the display borders, thus invalidating certain region of the display content making the LP to redraw the display. As a result clicking on the menu items, such as Photos, Song List, Credits, and Discography, etc., do not have immediate effect. Needless to say it does not work at all in full screen mode as there is nothing that can be done to invalidate the display and get the LP to redraw.
    Again it works properly on iTunes on Windows 7 64-bit so I would say it's an iTunes on Mac issue.

    I actually am on a Dell running Windows 7 and am having issues downloading the iTunes LP from the store. It's in my downloads saved, but I'm getting a message saying: "Christina Aguilera Bionic (Deluxe Edition) iTunes LP was not downloaded. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Any ideas? It seems as though I'm having the opposite problem as most of you.

  • Is it still the case that the Muse CC Forms widget will not work properly unless you have Business Catalyst?

    I am looking into options for our next office website redesign.  We will definitely need a forms function.  I downloaded the Muse CC free trial and went through all of the tutorials.  The video on the forms (Contact Form) stated that the forms widget would not work or would not work properly if you do not have Business Catalyst.  I'm hoping that has changed since the video was created.
    Is this still true that you need to purchase the Business Catalyst product for Muse CC form widgets to work correcty???

  • HT2204 Itunes password will not work when I purchase items after reseting passwords

    Have used Itunes for years with no incident.  Now, every time I try to purchase a song, book, app...it prompts me for my username and password.  Despite knowing it....it will not work. I've logged out / logged back in several times no luck.  I've updated my password successfully.  But again, each time I try to purchase something, I type in my username / password and it says that it is not correct.  ***.  Have recently even updated Itunes to make sure everything there is up to date.  Is there some virus that could be involved here.  HELP!!

  • Wireless drivers will not work properly in Win XP

    Hi,
    I have a late 2007 white macbook and when I got the computer then I immediately installed Windows XP so I could have Microsoft Office. When I did so I installed the Boot Camp Drivers from the Mac instal disc 1. It worked fine for about a year, I don't use Windows much at all except for maybe powerpoint and for some reason the wireless internet stopped working.
    I've tried reinstalling and repairing the drivers to no avail. Some of them like the iSight camera work and the eject button/ right click with two fingers.
    The gray diamond for Boot Camp that used to appear in the windows toolbar (bottom right corner) does not load anymore. I'm not sure why not. that's probably the problem but I used the same install disc I used the first time (reinstalled them twice now) and this time it will not work completely.
    Windows XP wireless utility does not recognize the signal, when you click "refresh network list" nothing happens....it doesn't even search.
    Finally I tried installing the third party driver from Broadcom which has a wireless utility. this utility at least recognizes my network but cannot connect. the log for the utility just keeps saying:
    "Initializing Wireless State Machine"
    The network conects fie to OSX and the three windows computers in my house....there is no protection.
    Thanks for the help!

  • I updated my software for the Time Machine and it will not work properly now.

    I updated my Time Machine's Software and now it flashes amber all of the time and will not let me "into" it. I used to have a wireless network through it and now it does not work. I have hard reset it several times and it is flashing amber again.

    I have done this on several occassions. This works for 1 time then it stops. It "connects" allows me to set it up and then flashes amber. It did backup 1 time today, but now it says it is delayed and there is no back up. It worked fine until I updated the software and tried to extend my network. After this, it will NOT work at all, for any length of time. i just reset it, and was able to set it up, but it gave me an error message, is flashing amber and is not being recognized. Very frustrating.
