Itunes 11.1.4 skipping and macbook pro unresponsive

macbook pro mid 2009
when i lisining to music stord on my mac itunes will skip kinda like it is buffering for a split sec only thing is all my music is on the hdd
and when it dose this my mac becomes unresponsiveand it only dose this when useing the internal speakers when i plug the head phones it it stops doing this and becomes unresponsive agan the pin wheel go's away at that point and this problem dont show back up untell i swich it back to the internal speakers
youtube and online radio of any kind works fine, it is only when i play my music stored on the hdd and it happends with every song
mid 2009 macbook pro, 320gig hdd over 200gigs free, 8 gigs of 1067 mhz ddr3 ram 4 gigs used,  2.53 ghz intel core 2 duo
os 10.9.1 fully updated
hard drive was just replaced
freash install of osx
did the reset of pram and smc

Then the only thing that sounds like it's different since this started is the new hard drive. It seems unlikely, but that's the newest thing introduced into the system. If you have the old drive, I'd try that as a test.

    Try removing the Genius database.  In the "Finder" go to the /username/Music/iTunes/ folder and delete the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file. This may allow the program to launch again. This file will be recreated upon first use of the "Genius" feature.

  • Everything is updated!!  iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro...  All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices.  iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time!  What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!

    Why does iTunes SUCK??
    1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
    2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
    If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
    I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
    Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
    If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
    This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
    Please tell me I am not the only one!!
    ...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
    Very appreciated,

  • My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

    My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

    As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
    I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
    I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

    Try redownloading it from:

    If you need further assistance on this thread, tell us the OS X version you are running on your MacBook Pro, and the iTunes version number.

  • We have iPad2 and Macbook Pro. Both are registered to iTunes acct (same email address). We want to be able to use Facetime when she goes off to college. Any advise greatly appreciated!

    We have iPad2 and Macbook Pro. Both are registered to iTunes acct (same email address). We want to be able to use Facetime when she goes off to college.  Any advise greatly appreciated!

    On your Mac, launch FaceTime and then go to the menubar for FaceTime->Preferences.
    Within Preferences for FaceTime, look for the entries under "You can be reached for calls at:" and click on "Add Another Email..."
    Add another email address.
    The iPad can now be used to "call" the Mac by trying to start a FaceTime connection to the alternate email address you just entered. The Mac can be used to call the iPad by trying to start a FaceTime connection to the primary email address associated with the iPad.

  • Since Yosemity and new iTunes i cannot play movies on macbook pro (missing HDCP ability)? Why is that?

    Since Yosemity and new iTunes i cannot play movies on macbook pro (missing HDCP ability)? Why is that?
    regards Peter

    Yesterday I had Apple phone support, they could partly solve the problem. At least I can use my Mac again to view movies but the problem of less resolution in itunes only is still there. My brother has the same macbook, same yosemity and same itunes. It works. Obviously it has to do with other SW on the Mac. Yesterday we removed Displaylink SW (i believe that was the name of the SW?) from my Mac. Perhaps it is not yet compatible with yosemity?

  • Photostream not working on iPhone 4, but works on iPad and macbook pro

    Hi there,
    I've read in the community there have been similiar problems with photostream, and been going trough various answers. None have been helpful unfortunately.
    I have photostream working on my iPad 2 (via 3G) and Macbook Pro. But can't get it to work on my iPhone 4 (also on 3G).
    Anyone who have had the same problem who can help me here?
    Regards, e.
    ps. Read that photostream works only on WI-Fi... but how come it works on my iPad via 3G in that case? And I connect my macbook online via internet tethering trough my iPhone.

    Hello Matt,
    It sounds like you are not able to access iTunes from your iPhone 4 using Home Sharing, but you can from your iPad.  I found an article with steps that I think would help with this issue.
    I recommend reviewing the full article below, but I think steps 4-7 are specifically useful for what you described:

  • Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id

    Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id. When I use I tunes it get confusing and I have a paid app that needs the same id

    When syncing the iPhone and iPad with iTunes on your computer that is logged in with the Apple ID you plan on using on all three, the Apple ID should be transferred to the iPhone and iPad for the iTunes & App Stores on each device. If not, you'll need to sign out of the existing Apple ID on the iPhone and iPad followed by signing in with the Apple ID you want to use on both.
    Keep in mind that all 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. With an app installed on your iPad and iPhone that was downloaded with a different Apple ID from the one you will be using now, you will need to use that Apple ID and password to install app updates for those apps. Not possible to transfer apps purchased with one Apple ID to another or to merge Apple IDs.

  • I upgraded my iTunes to 10.7 on my MacBook Pro - after that iTunes doesn't recognize my iPhone 4S 6.0.1 (10A523) in the iTunes sidebar. Solutions?

    I upgraded my iTunes to 10.7 on my MacBook Pro - after that iTunes doesn't recognize my iPhone 4S 6.0.1 (10A523) in the iTunes sidebar. Solutions?
    (Both upgrades to the phone and lap-top were done based on Apples suggestion, so I find it strange it doesn't work automatically, which should be a basic reason for choosing Apples costly products!)

    Try rebooting your computer.
    You might also try downloading and installing iTunes 11 which came out today.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

  • My ipad 2 and macbook pro don't sync

    I can't get my Ipad 2 and Macbook Pro to sync.  I have the latest version of ITunes and am running Mountain Lion on the Mac.  I have rebooted both.

    over wifi, i have tried using the cable but it does't sync that way either.  it shows that it is syncing but nothing changes and it syncs faster than it normally would. I am adding and deleting some movies from it and there is no change.

  • FCP 7.0.3 and MacBook Pro Retina Display

    I am a videographer, I shoot on DSLR and edit with FCP 7.0.3.
    I have recently got a brand new Pro Retina Display Macbook Pro.
    I installed my software, including - FCP7 via migration - I had to do this as there is no DVD drive in the macbook pro - it was installed - from my old Mac Book (black 2008)
    FCP 7.0.3 is not opening? It gets to the loading page and goes as far as the top tool bar showing up - but will not open so that I can actually use it.
    I got this mac to edit on the fly and take my jobs away with me and do not want to use Final Cut X - I am used to and very happy with FCP 7 interface and operating and don't have the time to learn to use other editing software - does anyone know how I can get the my FCP 7 software working on my brand new machine?
