ITunes 7.1.1 stops responding after several hours

My Intel iMac is Wifi connected to the Internet. I like to listen to iTunes(Radio-Jazz Genre) and I have iTunes sending music to my downstairs stereo via AirTunes to an AirPort Express.
I will be downstairs reading or cooking and notice that the music stopped. I'll go upstairs to the iMac and notice that the screensaver has kicked in. I wake it up and everything is working (such as RSS feeds) but iTunes has stopped responding and I must Force Quit and restart it. The amount of time between starting and a stoppage varies widely and it is more of an aggravation than a serious problem.
I have read quite a few Not Reponding messages in this discussion but this seems like a slightly different twist.

  • Touch-pad stop working after several hours using the laptop

    i have bought a new lenovo m30-70 and the touch-pad freezing after working several hours with the laptop.the driver is elan pointing device.after restarting the laptop it works again for several hours normally and then again the touchpad stops working. i tried to install the driver again but it stays the same.

    Hi Kiril87,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with the touchpad in your M30-70 laptop.
    Try to boot the system to safe mode and check for the issue, also check the issue in different applications. Try to uninstall the driver an check with windows basic drivers.
    If still the issue persists try to reinstall the operating system and check for the issue, before reinstalling the operating system please take a data backup.
    Also try to connect the external mouse and check for the issue.
    Hope this helps. Do post back if issue persists!
    Best regards,

    I recently updated my Mac book and Itunes and Mail have stop responding.
    iTunes work fine till I connect my Iphone. The moment I connect my iphone it stops responding. I have reset my phone couple of times already and have re-install iTunes few times. Does anyone have any other suggestion on it?
    Mail will never Quit. It will get my new mails or send them when I start it but after five mins or so it will stop responding at all.
    Please let me know if anyone is facing similar problem.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

    Mac book pro stops responding after Maverick OS restart. Currently have a circle with a line through it after 20+ hours. Tried to shut it down and use the Time Machine to restore but no response. How can I restore with Time Machine if it will not start?

    sonjadg,
    you can purchase a replacement pair of grey installation DVDs for your MacBook Pro from either Apple or iFixit. If Startup Manager is only showing an OS X Installer volume, then it sounds like the Mavericks installer had a problem midway through its installation process. To fix this, you’re going to need to erase your internal disk and reïnstall your original version of OS X from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD, use Software Update  to get it back to 10.6.8 (presuming that your MacBook Pro originally came with Snow Leopard), and then restore from Time Machine.

    Hello,
    I had that problem as well and the apple support suggested to turn off the LTE-mode to have a running system and try to exchange the micro-sim by my provider.
    THAT was not an option!
    BUT it seems to solve my problem in the following way after trying a lot of possibilties:
    In the menue properties/help (don't know the exact english word, because I run my phone in german)
    I switched on the nice feature 'flash LED' by incomming calls, msgs, and push infos.
    Today the flash feature was responding to different push notes very slowly.
    By switching this feature off the LTE-mode-tochscreen-not-responding-problem disappeared.
    We tried this on a other iphone, not having the metioned problem, and switched the LED-flash:
    the problem appeared. Switching the LED-flash off: problem disappeared!
    It seems to be a bug that the LED will hint Calls and MSGs in combination with the LTE mode!
    treated my phone very hard today to double check, but its still ok.
    @Apple:
    Please fix that issue in the next update.
    Hope, this helps you guys as well.

  • Admin console stops responding after a while

    We just upgraded to Weblogic 8.1.5 . We are having difficulties with the Administrator console. It stops responding after a while. There is no pattern. The restart seems to fix it but restart is very slow as it takes around 2 min to detect each server. So we have to wait for around 16 min (since we have 8 servers) for it to be operational again.
    Has anyone seen this problem and can suggest a resolution to this problem.
    Thanks
    Pankaj Grover

    I've never seen this and we've been running 8.1.5 for a while. Have you tried dumping threads to see what the admin server is doing? On UNIX, run 'kill -QUIT <admserv_pid>'. Can't remember if/how this can be done on Win32. I believe Console requests use the weblogic.admin.HTTP execute queue and it only has two threads. Could be that something is blocking those threads leading to this.
    I would also look into why your admin server takes 2 minutes to discover your managed servers. That seems unseemly long to me. Mine takes a few seconds at most. Since the Console does cause the admin server to talk to the managed servers, these two things might be related. Maybe you've got some kind of network/DNS lag that could be eliminated.

  • Mac OSX Lion: Why does PS CS6 BETA stop responding after attempting to import pdf?

    Mac OSX Lion: Why does PS CS6 BETA stop responding after attempting to import single pdf or multiple pdfs? frequently happens(2/3 times)

    Can you provide any more information about the files that are causing the problems? Are these particularly large files? Many pages or images? Have you opened these files in Photoshop CS5, or other versions of Photoshop?
    What do you see when you try to import these PDFs? Do you get the PDF Import dialog, allowing you to select pages or images from the PDF? Is so, is it hanging when you click OK or at another time?
    Any more details about the problem or other info (as well as sample files) you can provide, the easier it will be for us to help identify the cause of your problems.

  • TS1702 Numbers stops responding after editing sheet

    Numbers stops responding after editing sheet.  No amount of tapping does anything.  I have to close app and loose edits...
    How do I report a bug?  This is impacting my desire to even use numbers.

    You sound like you really have a good idea on what you are doing .. your steps to isolate the issue are perfectly valid. All I can suggest are a few things I would try and of course these too may not assist at all but at least we will give it a go ..
    FCPX 10.0.6 while not perfect , is a very stable program. I use it fairly frequently and any crashes I see are explainable or at least due in some way to a combination of things I was doing. So the issue is in al probability not a 'DNA - inherent issue with FCPX .. You mention that you did trash the preferences but did you Repair Permissions using te Disk Utility tool ? I would run that .. Create two new folders on the same drive as that of your Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects .. Call these new folders Hidden Final Cut Events and Hidden Final Cut Projects . Move the contents of FC Events into Hidden FC Events and the contents of FC Projects into Hidden FC Projects. All this will do is hide the events and projects from FCPX at start up and it will create a new event.
    See if any of this helps .. then if not come back .. hopefully others with better ideas will join in and you will get this sorted ..

  • My iPod shut off randomly and will no longer turn back on. I plugged it in to charge it, but after several hours it will not turn back on. What should I do?

    My iPod turn off randomly. I plugged it in to the charger, and after several hours, it still will not turn on. I even plugged it into my computer and pulled up iTunes, where it showed up on the screen as plugged in, but still it will not turn back on. Any suggestions on what I should do?

    - First try resetting the iPOd:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Next try restoring the iPod via iTunes, first from backup and if still problem to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My ipod classic will not sync my content, even after several hours.

    My ipod classic will not sync content, even after several hours.  I have restored the ipod, got a new dock connenctor, manually synced a few songs.  This is frustrating.  I am considering sending the ipod for service.  What do I do?

    How is your iPod configured to sync TV Shows?  What options do you have enabled from under your iPod's TV Shows configuration tab in iTunes?
    No error messsages when you sync your Classic with iTunes?  Try resetting all warnings with the device by right->clicking on it from under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and choosing Reset warnings. Then resync your device to see if any errors appears.

  • FF4 starts using all of available CPU after several hours, needs reboot.

    This used to happen in the previous release version of FF, and it's apparently still the case in FF4.
    Everything works fine after I start FF4. I have 50+ tabs open and visible through TabMixPlus and FF is fast and snappy just like I want it to be, but after several hours (most often when I come back to the PC in the morning) it starts hogging too much CPU. I don't care so much for memory, I have plenty of that to spare, but once it maxes out a core once per second, FF completely slows down about that often and becomes completely unusable. I have to reboot it every time to fix that.
