ITunes 7 Release - Crashing - View Cover Browser

I have read a number of the posts on crashing and reviewed some of the suggestions. So far the only unusual find I have seen is that changing the View button to View Cover Browser shows a message that says: "iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer"
This would seem to not be a big problem until I went to the Music Store and clicked on Movies. The same message comes up and CRASHES EVERYTIME.
There are definately some problems with this release and will hope to see some updates soon!

Cover Flip
USUALLY the big fix here is updating your video
card/drivers from the PC makers site (May as well
install all updates they offer) IF the Video card
came with the PC when you bought it
If not goto the maker of the card to update it.
Also update your DirectX From Microsoft here

Updated the Video driver and also Direct X and still no satisfaction...crashing on Music Store Movies page.

ITunes 7 crashed when I browsed the TV show section (every time)

Whenever I go to the TV show section for iTunes 7, the program crashes on me. It claims that I don't have DirectX - which I do have.
How do I fix this?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

ITunes keeps crashing (coregraphics.dll)

Hi all!
My iTunes keeps crashing, especially when browsing the iTunes Shop and initiating a download of iPhone apps. The crash report mentions:
AppName:itunes.exe AppVer:9.0.2.25 ModName: coregraphics.dll ModVer:1.0.60.0 OffsetL000a504e.
Any ideas/suggestions on what I can do to fix this?
I have downloaded and installed iTunes 9 and the latest Quicktime revision (7.6.5).
I am using a Dell Latitude D620 with an NVidia Quadro NVS 110M, with all the latest drivers as made available by Dell.

Thank you, sol! That's ideal information you've supplied.
AppName:itunes.exe AppVer:9.0.2.25 ModName: coregraphics.dll ModVer:1.0.60.0 OffsetL000a504e.
Okay, you're having a program with an Apple Application Support program file here. (iTunes 9.0.25 requires a properly functioning Apple Application Support in order to work correctly.)
So, to begin with, we'll try uninstalling both iTunes and Apple Application Support, and then reinstalling iTunes (which should also reinstall Apple Application Support). We'll take a few other precautions along the way too.
Preliminaries
Download and save a fresh copy of iTunesSetup.exe (the iTunes installer file) from the Apple website. (Don't run the install on line, and don't start the install just yet.)
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now quit both QuickTime and Safari 4.0.4 if you have them open. (Both use Apple Application Support and will interfere with the uninstall if you have them open.)
*Uninstall phase*
Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Uninstall iTunes. Uninstall Apple Application Support.
(From this point until Apple Application Support is reinstalled, QuickTime and Safari 4.0.4 will no longer launch.)
Next we'll clear away any leftover iTunes and/or Apple Application Support program files and folders.
Go "Start > My Computer".
Open "Local Disk (C:)" or whichever drive your program files are installed on.
Open the "Program Files" folder.
Right-click on the iTunes folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Open the "Common Files" folder.
Open the "Apple" folder.
Right-click on the "Apple Application Support" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Empty your recycle bin and restart the PC.
*Reinstall Phase*
After the PC restarts, do not open any other applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now disable all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware.) Now start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe you downloaded earlier.
Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to the internet and/or your network.
Does the install go through okay? if so, does your iTunes behave itself a bit better when downloading iPhone apps?

Goofy Cover Browser view in iTunes 7

I guess Apple’s relationship with Disney finally got to close for comfort. I’m afraid Goofy just took over the iTunes UI design.
As the name implies, the Cover Browser (rightmost view button) looks and almost functions like a browser.
Unfortunately, it is merely a display of the album now playing with previous and next albums.
Undoubtedly this view is great looking, but has no usefulness as a browser. This should have been a visualizer plugin.
As a matter of fact, I actually would use it as a full screen visualizer plugin. Ironically, such useful Use Case for this feature is not enabled.
So far, I was only slightly disappointed with the missed opportunity to make a cool looking real album browser and the missing visualizer.
Apple did provide a “Group by Artwork” view that is not as great looking, but it’s certainly useful.
However, my disappointment quickly turned into puzzlement when I was surprised by a completely unexpected Cover Browser behavior.
I hear that after puzzlement comes acceptance. I’m not there yet, but I have a feeling I’m working up to it by writing about it.
Consider this.
If you filter your view with Quick Browse by an Artist or a Genre, only the filtered tracks are displayed.
If you start playback, only those selected tracks will be in the queue.
I don’t know about you, but that’s how I listen to my iTunes library. I play a selected Playlist, Genre, Album, or Artist to listen to a specific selection. I never play tracks without filtering because I have podcasts, audiobooks, hip-hop, classic, altrock, and only God and my iTunes library know how many more different types of music.
But I digress. Having started playback on a filtered list of a selected Artist or Album and then clicking on the Cover Browser does something only Goofy could have conceived.
It loses your selected filtering and changes to an all tracks view. The currently playing album cover is displayed, but what is before and after that track is now determined by the all tracks view column sorting.
In other words, because I clicked on the Cover Browser view, my playback queue changed to something I had no intention of hearing.
This strange behavior is unique to the Cover Browser view. Had I click on the Group by Artwork instead, the filtering would still be in effect.
There must have been some kind of crazy rational to lose the filtering since it was clearly intentional.
They got the Playlist behavior right. If playback is started from a Playlist, changing view to Cover Browser does the expected and only displays the albums contained in the Playlist.
Goofy didn’t stop there. No, he was inspired.
In the Cover Browsing view while playback is active, if you navigate down the list of tracks, say 6000 tracks down, after a brief timeout, the highlighted album reverts back to the one playing, which could the first one of this 6000 tracks list.
Quick, you got 15 seconds to navigate down a list and look at it…Sorry, you’re not fast enough…back to the top of the list where you belong!
I’m afraid this is not the first time iTunes has been updated with functionality that makes it less useful. Podcast categories have been removed with no good way to get to those specific podcasts anymore (e.g. International).
The status window defaulting to downloading podcast information while playback is active is another terrible example.
As a lifetime fan, it is sad to witness the slow deterioration of Apple’s once high standards.
Acceptance is coming while I image what must be like to have Goofy lose and running amuck in the Tunes design lab.

Below the cover view is the track listing which has all the columns as usual - simply click the column title to sort by that field.
If the album has different artists then make sure the 'group compilations' option is ticked in preferences and then go into the info for the tracks and select 'part of a compilation'. iTunes will then group the tracks into a single album and display 'various artists' as the artist.
There is also now a field called 'album artist' which sets an artist for an entire album.

View cover art wd book live nas iTunes

Hi, i have bought a WD Book Live 3tb network storage device, i have transferred all of my itunes library to the NAS drive and because it has a itunes server, itunes detects it and i can play my files. All of my music have the cover art embedded into the files, because when i view them in the finder i can see the cover art. But when i am browsing my library through itunes none of the cover art shows up even though it is embedded into the files? can anybody help me get my cover art to show? thanks

trial and error but i think i got it.. this worked for me running OS: 10.8.3, iTunes: 11.0.3
On your computer hard drive (running your OS) go to your music folder in finder and "IF" u have a folder called "iTunes" rename it to iTunes2 or whatever u what don't matter.
Create new iTunes by holding down opt key while opening iTunes. It will ask you to create or choose. press "Create Library..."
U will need to name…. save as: "iTunes" and the saved location HAS TO BE ON MAIN HARD DRIVE running your OS. This folder cant be saved to external hard drive ONLY MAIN HARD DRIVE and the name HAS to be "iTunes". It wont work with any other name
If you have large music located on external drive then u will need to go to preferences on iTunes and change "iTunes Media folder location" to your desired location on your external and MAKE SURE TO CHECK BOTH BOXES... ( the actual "iTunes" folder containing Album Artwork, iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Library.xml ect has to be located on main hard drive running OS that the trick)
Adding media back to new iTunes--- so IF your original media is located on the main drive then go to the new "iTunes" folder that was created in your Music folder on main hard drive and there is a folder called "Automatically Add to iTunes" all u do is just drag the folder holding all your original media to that folder called "Automatically Add to iTunes"and it will automatically move that original file and organize it to the new iTunes folder….So FYI any media on the same disk will not get doubled when u add to folder it will only organize file but if it located on different disk and you drag file to " "iTunes Media folder location"" located on main hard drive then it will double that file
Adding media to new iTunes if the original media is located on EXTERNAL drive----. Pretty much its the same but back on step 4 if you saved "iTunes Media folder location" to external folder... then that folder has a folder called "iTunes Media folder location"" …. So if u add any media saved on that drive and drag to that folder it will just organize and move that original file only……
So now in iTunes when u press "show in finder" for music it will show artwork and when u just search with finder it will show artwork for music file. Hope this help this issue bugged me for a long time apple tech was no help.. hope this works for others

ITunes 7.0.1.8 Freezes Windows when Cover Browser display option selected.

When I select the Cover Browser display option for Music Library the entire operating system freezes within 3 seconds after the button is selected. After rebooting and deleting all music and selecting the option the freeze did not occur. I reimported a CD and tried again and the freeze occured again. ITunes works fine otherwise.

Viewing cover flow through ipod playing on itunes

Can I plug ipod into itunes and view Cover Flow of the ipod contents while its playing?

ITunes always crash when I press the browse button...

if I have opened the browse window in iTunes main window,and then start to play musics, at this moment when I press browse button to close the browse window, iTunes always crashes.
I don't know if it is a bug. Anyone can help me?
thanks

hiya!
Indeed, when crash happend it gave me a popup window to say that it has met a problem and have to be closed.
okay, let's try enlisting some additional technical help then.
we'll get a crash log from itunes, and send it to so someone who can interpret crash logs.
Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
drwtsn32 -i
And hit return.
This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
generate the crash, collect the crash log, and send it to this email address
in the email:
(1) state the precise version number of itunes that you're using.
(2) include the URL to this thread so that the person who gets the email has some context, but also give as much information about the context of the crashing as you can.

HT5070 Downloaded an epidose of Glee. Trying to open it for viewing causes iTunes to crash. Why? Thanks very much for any assistance.

Downloaded last weeks episode of GLEE. When it was finished, I checked the "Season Pass HD" radio button to see if what I had downloaded was in HD (which I wanted), vice SD. I saw that what I had was indeed HD, and at the box prompt I "x'd" out of it instead of completing the box - which would have caused me to pay for the season...which I do not want at this time.
I cannot open the episode. Trying causes iTunes to crash.
Any ideas why?

Cover Browser stopped working

After using iTunes almost without a hitch since the iTunes 7 upgrade came out, my cover browser stopped working and other odd behaviors have cropped up.
For instance, when I try to shift from list view to browser view or grouped view, the iTunes window becomes corrupted, almost as if it were trying to display two windows at once, sort of superimposed. And the Cover Browser view doesn't work at all.
If I minimize and then enlarge the window though (the only way to get it to un-freeze), I get a blank white box where the cover browser should be.
I have reinstalled several times, being very careful to remove all reciepts and preferences, and I logged in under a 'test' user and iTunes works fine there, but not under my own (administrator) user. Also, I can't for the life of me think of anything I've done to change my computer to make this happen. Any ideas out there? Thanks, your help will be much appreciated!

Can not properly view cover flow in full screen in external display

My mac is the new Mac book pro 15.4 inch screen and I connect my mac pro to external display e.g. Samsung LCD monitor 24 inches.
The bug is that I can not PROPERLY view full screen (in external display) for some application e.g. iTunes, and Front Row.
- When I use iTunes, I can not properly view Cover Flow view in full screen (in the external display screen) except the case of mirror display.
- For Front Row, I can not view full screen in external display but only my mac display.
However, for other DVD or VDO players, I can view movie on external display in full screen and I still be able to do other works on my mac screen.
Please let me know how to solve it.

View –Cover Flow View-Grey scale images

View –Cover Flow View-Grey scale images
Hi. No problems when I view my album covers in either [List View] or [Album View]. When I use [Cover Flow View] I get distorted lines, less than even a blurred image, in fact grey scale. Seems strange that iTunes can display in [List View] or [Album View], but not in [Cover Flow View]. Any ideas? Thanks.

I don't know the answer to this so a couple of suggestions, are you on the latest version of iTunes that is compatible with Windows 2000?
If not you can download it here:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes732forwindows2000.html
Are you upto date with your DirectX for Windows 2000? Although looking at the MS website it doesn't look as though there is anything particularly new:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7c61e5da-8c60-43f6-9549 -65b93cf6f987&DisplayLang=en
Also check your computer manufacturer's support website to make sure you are upto date with your drivers etc.

ITunes 11 Crashes When Attempting to Sync Podcasts

My two computers, a Mini and a MacBook both run Snow Leopard (10.6.8) so I can continue to use Photoshop CS3. I made the horrible mistake of "upgrading" to iTunes 11.1.1 at Apple's suggestion. While I agree with many of the aesthetic and functional complaints I've read on this forum, my issue is more serious. When I attempt to sync new podcasts iTunes immediately crashes. Specifically when I attach any of my four functioning iPods, ranging from 3rd Gen to 7th, the device comes up on the File page, the Summary page opens correctly and so does Music. But when I select Podcasts I immediately get the dreaded spinning beach ball of death and iTunes in my open Force Quit window turns red. Force quit is the only way out. I've "upgraded" to 11.1.2 and now 11.1.3 with the same results. I have sent in dozens of crash reports to Apple and have written the iTunes guy at MacWorld with no response from either. My crash reports are no longer polite though I'm aware the person reading the reports is not responsible for releasing this buggy mess.
I have Time Machine and was able to install an older version of the application,10.6, but was unable to regress the iTunes library so now the app is incompatible with the library which is apparently permanently changed, even with Time Machine. Installing 11 also wiped out 6 years of carefully archived podcasts, many of which are no longer available at the iTunes Store.
Any suggestions are welcome. If I absolutely have to I guess I'd be willing to install Mavericks on the MacBook if I knew that would solve the iTunes issues but I resent that I have to do so. I have been a loyal Mac fan since 1984 but now that Apple is fat and happy it looks like it's going to replace Microsoft as the company with the black hat.

As I said that was a Test.
Now we know that iPhoto is sound, as is the Phone, it's the other Library that's damaged.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
However : Library Manager has not been fully updated to work with 11 yet. So, best to wait until Wednesday (when the release is due) to do this step.
Regards
TD
