ITunes almost freezes new MBP i7 15. What can I do?

Hi,
I have a 3 month old MBP 15, latest (thunderbolt) generation with basic specs. I also have iPhone 4 that was synced in the past with previous computer and iTunes on it.
The current machine, from the very first sync that I did is experiencing problems with ITunes. The problem is that every time iTunes starts (e.g. after the iPhone is plugged in or even manually) the whole computer slows down extremely. By 'extremely' I mean you have to wait for 15 seconds to see results of the clicks you make displayed on the screen. The whole machine ans system becomes unusable. It also seems to have something to do with network. I noticed sometimes that when the wi-fi was off it seemed to prevent iTunes from freeze...
I have the iTunes updated, also the iPhone is running latest iOS and I have repaired permissions with Onyx. What else can I do?
Let me also add that at the very beginning of using this computer I also experienced this bug where iPhoto was refusing to see the iPhone and I had to delete the folder called 'iPod Photo Cache'. Currently iPhoto works fine but, as explained above, iTunes is unusable.
From time to time (every 10th time or so) it seems that iTunes launches correct. But is lasts only for couple of minutes before it almost freezes as explained above.
Any advice is much appreciated!!! I'm quite desperate already...

I've now replicated this problem on another account so it's not a matter of account but it seems related to iTunes itself...

There is nothing to prepare with iTunes except for having the current iTunes version installed.

The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do?

The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do? When i go to the camera, it is stuck on a black screen. the only way to use my camera is through other camera apps, but if I try to switch it to the front camera, it freezes again.

If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required. You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty

I've created a fillable PDF document in XI Pro. I need to change the body of the document and create a new fillable PDF document. When I do that it won't let me create a new PDF. It keeps saying "no new fields recognized. What can I do to redo my document with the changes in the text, but no changes in the fillable fields?

You start with a source / authoring file for the "static" content (e.g., Name, Last:). Say this is an MS Word file.
You master the "static" content..
You keep this authoring file and have a backup of this file.
You output a PDF and use Acrobat to build and fine tune the "form" (form = the form fields, not the "static" content).
The authoring file and output PDF (with form fields) gives you "rev 00".
Now, you must change something in the "static" content.
Open the authoring file and save as to a new version (e.g., "wordfile_v00" becomes "wordfile_v01).
Output this to "pdffile_v01".
Use Acrobat to open the PDF form file "pdffile_v00". Save As to a new file name ("pdffile_v00update").
Using Acrobat XI Pro the click-path Tools - Pages - Replace lets you replace a page or pages of "pdffile_v00update" with a page or pages from "pdffile_v01".
This replaces the "static" PDF page content and does not affect the form fields on the page.
(you may have to adjust position of form fields)
Save "pdffile_v00update" to "pdffile_v01" to reflect the revised status of the PDF form file.
Be well...

If your iTunes is up to date, remove the SC Info folder.

How are you trying to open it? What happens when you double-click it in the Finder? In the Finder Preferences do you have Show these items on the desktop: "CDs, DVDs, and iPods" selected?
What happens?

I upgraded my iPad (3rd gen) to iOS 7. When I go to iTunes and look at the summary and to the "Apps" list tab, iTunes stops working and shuts down. What can I do? I am using a Windows 7 machine.

Hi thanks for the encouragement. It's not that the severs are "swamped", iOS 7 has been successfully installed.
I can't access the apps list in iTunes because it *****
down. Its pretty frustrating because many of my apps require me to manually transfer files into iTunes first to view
them. Not sure if the servers being swamped is an issue for me, unless they release a bug fix through another version of iTunes.
Has anyone else had this problem? My iPad is pretty useless unless I can access my app list in iTunes....

That is telling that the Apple TV is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. This is done by connecting to iTunes via micro USB.
