Itunes 9.0.2.25 skips with simple movements

I just rebuilt my system and installed the newest version of Itunes and now Itunes skips with just simple movements such as, opening a web browser, moving Itunes from one screen to another(dual monitors), clicking the "Get Info" tab on a song. I am stumped because I have never had this problem on my old system. Any suggestions would be greatly appreicated.

I think I have progress. My machine doesn't do the digital stutter anymore. It still skips ever so slightly, like a bad CD, but, it's much much better than before.
I updated the BIOS. I had to use the @Bios utility. It wouldn't accept a downloaded file from Gigabyte's website saying something like wrong part number on the dl'd file. I tried it 2x. But doing it through the @bios utility worked for me.
The cursor hang is gone too.
I suspected my ATI4670, I was going to pull that out next or downgrade to an older driver or swap to an older nvidea I have around, but it think this will be ok for now. Lemme know how it goes for you.

  • ITunes 10.0.1 - beach balls with every move

    My iTunes 10.0.1 (22) has become so slow with almost every move I make (selecting a song, play/stop, updating info, etc) which results in about a 5-10 second beach ball. I noticed my standard Real Mem usage is running between 600MB-900MB with CPU spiking over 90% with every move. I've reinstalled OSX (10.6.4), iTunes, rebuilt my Library via Consolidation but same. Now my standard Library is large (~170,000 songs stored all on a firewire 2TB drive - which I know is not the norm. But as an experiment I set up a new user built a new library local, added about 5,000 songs and similar results. Also to playback any video via iTunes is almost unusable as it stops and stutters all the way.
    Any thoughts? Also is there anyone with a similar size library that can share what their normal memory usage is? This has become so painful to use but with the time invested in building this library with all the details it is out of the questions on changing to something else.
    Thanks

    Since you are experiencing problems in more then one user account, follow the instructions here under: Try Disk Utility Check the startup disk for errors just in case.
    Check for free disk space. Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.

  • ITunes 7.3.1.3  skips with Firefox Please Help!

    Dell P4, Win XP SP2, 1 GB DDR SDRAM
    Hi all, I am using the latest version of FF 2.0.0.6 and I just upgraded to the latest version of iTunes 7.3.1.3 and am having a skipping problem. There seems to be a compatibility issue with FF and iTunes v.7, as I do not experience the problem when I tested with Safari and IE 7. Anyone have any ideas, I like the new version of iTunes, but not at the expense of having issues.
    Additionally I wanted to note that the problem only occurs with iTunes v.7, I was using version 6 before and everything worked fine. I know that I can just downgrade back to v.6 but I would like to keep the new iTunes, any ideas?
    PS: I checked the FF forums and no one was able to solve the problem.
    CPU times: FF: 6:09, Itunes: 5:57
    Peak memory usage:
    FF: 121 MB
    Itunes: 134 MB
    CPU usage fluctuates
    FF: 0-4
    Itunes: 0-17
    Thanks!

  • How can I get an album to play in order on Itunes?  The songs keep skipping all around to other albums that I did not want to listen to at that time?

    How can I get an album to play in order on Itunes?  The songs keep skipping all around to other albums that I did not want to listen to at that time?

    It sounds like you might have the shuffle button at the bottom left of the iTunes (the button with the squiggly lines).
    If that's not the case, then maybe you just need to sort your library by album by clicking the album tab at the top.
    Is your music in a playlist, or are you trying to play it from the entire library?

  • ITunes 6.0.1 causes skips when ripping from CDs

    I have been using iTunes to convert my CDs to mp3 files on my Mac. With the advent of iTunes 6.0.1 the mp3 files skip (in the same places) using iTunes, VLC, and the SlimMusic player. The converted mp3 files from earlier versions of iTunes don't have any skips in them using any of these players. I made sure that my Mac wasn't doing anything else when I did the newest conversions. Thus, I can only conclude that iTunes 6.0.1 is causing the problem. Does anyone else have this problem? Is Apple now enforcing some music industry rule about ripping mp3s from CDs? If so, are there any other mp3 ripping progams still available for the Mac? Help!

    I've determined that iTunes has to be the topmost active window when importing, otherwise it will crash consistantly. And I though Microsoft was bad...
    iTunes for the Mac works fine though.

  • Itunes slow and sputtering  --  frequent issue with many

    well so much for an update. after updating to latest itunes, 7.0.2.16, my songs and movies skip and run slow.
    i have tried all the fixes: new sound card driver, delete quicktime and reinstall, sound enhancer conflict, no plug ins, hardware excelleration...
    i cannot listen to my music, and its all locked in the skin of the apple. dang.
    help me apple, please help me, and the others - or how about admitting there is a problem so i can quit tweeking the @#$% out of my computer.
    PS: i do not have a pavillion laptop or a dell desktop, like so many with this problem seem to have.

    You can try one more thing. It's a bit of a hack, but it's worked for many, many people.
    Find and install Foobar 2000.
    Then find and install the "multi-plugin for iTunes" and install it.
    Open up Foobar and set it to use KERNAL streaming. Close Foobar. and give it a go.
    That's the only other suggestion I can think of that you haven't already tried.
    iTunes skin with Foobar sound engine = good to go.
    iTunes for windows needs a major overhaul. It's laggy, too limited in the codecs that can be used, and has no kernal streaming. (sigh)
    They really need to do something fast.

  • Restoring Itunes & Contacts to pre IOS7 phone with IOS6

    Happy New Year all!
    I loved my iphone but the recent downgrade to IOS7 has largely spoilt my expereince and despite trying to like it for these past few months, I still don't and feel it has robbed me of the quality look that pre IOS7 offered. In short, I feel it's like I've taken my car in for a service and they have altered the interior without me asking! Good- now I've got that off my chest! :-)
    I've bought another Iphone 4s with IOS6 loaded on it and intend to sell my current one loaded with IOS7. Can any one tell me if I will be able to use my current AppleID, restore my Itunes music & Contact lists, in short, will I be able to use my icloud backup taken on IOS7 without updating to IOS7? or will I have to set up a brand new account with Apple and start all over again from fresh. If the later is true (and possibly even if it isn't), this is highly likley to be my last Apple product (still plainly very dissapointed!) but for now, these are my questions. I'd be grateful to hear from anybody who has done this or has the technical understanding to help me understand what I'm going to need to do.
    Many Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi. Just wanted to say thanks once again (& let other dissapointed & frustrated users know). I've finished restoring Itunes & Contacts to my "new-to-me" Iphone 4S with IOS 6.1.3!!.....It is exactly as you said. AppleID for Itunes & Icloud sync for contacts. Very simple in the end. (Had to put up with the download of ios7 but needless to say I didn't install) Very happy Man this evening. Good to have the pre-IOS7 quality back again. :-) Mike

  • HT4914 Do you get unlimited skips with I tunes match or does the 6 skips per hour per station aply here also ?

    Do you get unlimited skips with I-tunes Match or does the 6 skips per hour per station apply here also

    I assume that you are referring to iTunes Radio, in which case I don't think that subscribing to iTunes Match will affect the number of skips with it - this page only mentions about removing adverts with Match : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5181

    Hey cptniemo,
    Thanks for the question. Connecting your iTunes Store and Disney Movies Anywhere accounts should sync all of your eligible Disney, Pixar, and Marvel movies between both services. After connecting your accounts, you can check your purchased history in the iTunes Store:

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • My iTunes Store on IPhone comes up with an error ([newNullResponse]). It is just on the music tab, tv shows and movies tab works fine. I have tried restarting phone, closing app, turning my account off and on. What is the problem I need help?!!!!

    My iTunes Store on iPhone comes up with an error [newNullResponse] always when I click the music tab. The movies and tv shows tab works fine. I have tried everything from restarting my phone to turning my account off and on.

    Try a different cable and a different charger. If neither fixes it you probably need a new battery. Apple will replace it for $80 in the US; I don't know what the charge is in other locations.

  • HT1535 I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my i

    I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
    This is intensely confusing, sorry.

    Question.....
    "I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my iPod?"
    Answer.....
    Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
    You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.
