Itunes crashes on ATV 3 but not 2?

Just wanted to take a moment and share my experiences regarding this itunes bug that is sweeping "Appleland."
I have an 2011 iMac that I have been running ATV 2 off of since last October and have not had any problems until recent itunes update 10.6. After that update itunes started crashing on my computer when navigating my movies and tv shows in the computers selection on the ATV 2 interface. Then itunes update 10.6.1 came out and the bug was fixed and it was gone, it worked perfectly like it always did and itunes didn't crash on my computer anymore.
So last weekend I decided to buy the new ATV 3 and right from the get-go it started crashing my itunes again. For the last couple of days I've looked at the message boards and tried some of the tips but nothing has worked thus far, itunes just keeps crashing.
Tonight I decided to give ATV 2 a shot again on my network and it's working perfectly, back to normal like it never lost a beat. I am now resigned to just waiting for the next itunes update and/or Apple TV update hoping that it fixes the bug until I reinstall my ATV 3 .
So adding my 2 cents I'm pretty sure it's a software issue on itunes that may also result in an Apple TV update as well. Here's to hoping these bugs get fixed soon and everything is back to normal!

Good info. Thanks for the further info. I'm plagued by the same problem.

    With your phone plugged in, open Image Capture and see if the iPhone shows up.  If not, you are having a sync problem.  If it shows up in Image Capture, but not iTunes, I'd delete iTunes and reinstall it.

  • How do I share my iTunes library with my mother, but not on our home network?

    How do I share my Itunes library with my mother, but not on our home network?

    Another alternative is she can select tracks from your library copy and just add them to her library. Then she does not have to bother with switching between two libraries.

  • Adobe Flash plugin crashes on MANY sites, but not all (not YouTube)

    Adobe Flash plug in crashes on certain sites, but not on all (not on YouTube, for instance). The big problem is NBA league pass. I spoke to a friend who was happily watching NBA league pass next door, so their feed isn't the problem.
    This occurs in both IE and Firefox. It also crashed Safari. I'm running Windows XP. I've reinstalled both browsers (latest version), rebooted several times, and reinstalled Flash too.

    Since this is happening in all browsers, try turning off hardware acceleration in your [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player display settings]:
    Right-click on any Flash video or animation (such as the animation on [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ this Flash test page]), click "Settings" and uncheck “Enable hardware acceleration" in the Display tab.

    Flash uses enhanced hardware acceleration (H.264 video hardware decoding) on systems with supported video cards and drivers (read [http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/systemreqs/index.html#video this] for details). Updating your graphics drivers many also help.

  • Windows error: iTunes crashes (uninstall and reinstall does not work)

    Hello all.
    I (and another user) have had a problem with iTunes crashing when trying to open it. Windows just generates the typical vague error message that explains nothing as to what the problem is. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not work, and using the "Repair" option did not work either.
    This was the solution. Hope it works for you. Cheers.
    C ;o)
    Here are the steps, some might be redundant, but still follow them to try and get iTunes to work.
    1. *Extremely important* Close the QuickTime launcher in the tray on the right side of your Windows TaskBar (right-click on the blue QuickTime "Q" logo next to where you have the time and date and select "exit".) The QuickTime logo should disappear from the tray.
    2. Go to where your iTunes library folder is, copy it and put it elsewhere on yoour hard-drive. This is where you asked your iTunes to point to and keeps the full repository of the files sync'ed to your iPod. If you don't do this, you will have to re-create the full library of all the music and files you have put into iTunes.
    3. Unistall iTunes and reboot your PC.
    4. Go to c:\Program Files\Quicktime and delete this whole folder.
    5. Go to c:\Windows\System 32 and: delete the Quicktime FOLDER there; then (ii) scroll down and delete all other QuickTime related files (there should be 5-10 of them, I didn't count, some will have a name like QuickTMvr whatever).
    6. Empty Recycle Bin.
    7. Reboot your PC.
    8. Go back to Apple Website and download: iTunes, and (ii) QuickTime installation only (without iTunes).
    9. Install QuickTime FIRST (use newly downloaded version)! Check it works OK by opening it.
    10. Close QuickTime lanucher from tray, as explained above in step 1.
    11. Install iTunes (use the newly downloaded version).
    12. Open iTunes. If it opens fine (clap your hands and say "hurray", and actually I said out loud to my PC, "Please work" and it did - I don't know if this step helped at all. ;o) ), then close iTunes FIRST BEFORE DOING THE NEXT STEP. Go to where the new iTunes (and library) folder is, rename the new iTunes folder (as you might notice when/if you open iTunes, that it is all blank), and copy the old iTunes folder (from step 2) to the same location. Re-open iTunes. It should be the way it opened the last time.

    Btw.
    Don't forget that, from my experience, most iTunes errors comes from malfunctioning instances of QuickTime.

  • ITunes crashes in iPhone sync. Not enough space

    When trying to sync my iPhone with iTunes, the first several steps succeed, then am]n error message appears stating there is not enough space to continue. As soon as I click on the iPhone icon on the left, iTunes "unexpectedly quits"
    Ther appears to be sufficient space on the hard drive and free space on the iPhone.
    I am trying to restore to the last successful backup, (presumably there was sufficient space with that configuration), but as soon as I right-click to get to the restore command, iTunes crashes.
    Any suggestions??
    JD

    Use disk utility and repair the permissions on the drive. If it won't let you run it against that partition, you may need to copy the data off of it to another partition, format it, then copy the data back.

  • Wifi not working with iTunes, apps store and some, but not all Internet sites....why???

    Yesterday I noticed while browsing Internet that some sites would not open and that some games I regularly play would not open. I also found that I could not open either the apps store or iTunes. Everything seemed to be working the day before and I have not recently upgraded ios (been on version 6.1.3 for a while) or changed any settings on my iPad (2).  With Internet research today I found suggestion that if I switched to 3G I would be able to access these apps and,sure enough, under 3G connection everything works fine. Some other forums suggest changing wifi router settings to fix the issue ....I have not tried this as I wouldn't  like to mess with my router and end up effecting other peripherals/pc's connected to it that are working fine....especially when I am not terribly IT savvy when it comes to hardware settings.  But as I haven't changed anything on my ipad why would my wifi suddenly stop connecting to some apps on my iPad, but not all??? Interestingly I can access many Internet sites (forums) with wifi connection but not the apple forum! To get to anything apple related I have to switch back to 3G ....that includes checking the iOS version I am on via settings!
    I also mention that I have done all the other suggested fixes found on various forums, such as rebooting iPad, renewing wifi lease, clearing cookies, closing all apps etc etc, to no avail. Seems the only suggested fix I have not tried is mucking around with my router which I am very hesitant to do given the **** I went through with my telco when my home Internet connection suddenly stopped working last year. Took me weeks of phone calls to get my internet connection back and being forced by the telco to a more expensive plan, hence very reluctant to start mucking around with that side of things, but why should I need to when it does seem to be working ok with other devices in the home?
    I have started this as new discussion as, even though I am not terribly IT savvy,  I cant see how this could be related to the wifi issues that many on the newer devices (iPhone 5 and iPad mini etc) are reporting as I haven't recently upgraded anything on my ipad and all was working perfectly up until yesterday.
    Any other suggestions on how to get wifi working correctly again on iPad or do I really have to risk the working of every other device in my home and chase it from modem/router side?

    You mentioned that you have tried a few troubleshooting steps already, but you may want to take a look at the article below, specifically the section titled "If you are unable to access the Internet while connected to a Wi-Fi network"

  • Itunes synchronises my music files, but not the apps.

    About a week ago I bought an Ipod touch. My computer recognises the Ipod and synchronises the music files on Itunes, but not the apps.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that didn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.
    If that doesn't help, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • Trying to move itunes from a network server but not succeeding. Help!

    my work laptop is part of an exchange server network thing. I have to move my personal data from this network and so have experienced a few problems. Firstly when i moved the itunes files to my desktop away from the synched files in 'my documents' and 'my music' it deleted my whole library. I still had the files but everytime i tell itunes to add folders of music from their new location it still insists on putting the files back into 'my music' as well and thus back onto the server. I've changed the file location in the advanced settings to its new location on the desktop but its still doing the same thing. Can anyone help please?

    1 Quit iTunes.
    2 Copy the entire iTunes folder including music to the another location/external drive.
    3 Restart iTunes holding (Shift-Windows, Option-Mac).
    4 Select Choose library. Select the library in the folder you just moved.
    5 Move the old iTunes folder to the trash but do not empty it.
    6 Restart iTunes normally and verify the songs work. If they do, empty the trash.

  • Transferring Itunes Library to External HD  - BUT not so straighforward

    Oh dear, here I am again asking q's about this thing again. Wish it was more straightforward and I really appreciate any help. Yes, I've been searching for a solution but all the advice i find online doesnt seem to specifically fit my situation - and I'm worried if I do the wrong thing, itunes won't be able to find the new locations - (i'll have to locate each individual file for Itunes) - and/or I'm going to end up with lots of duplicates.
    Right then - so my Internal HD is nearly full and need to transfer all my podcasts to an external HD. I also wish for any updates/downloads to the podcasts are located at this new location.
    All my Music, is already NOT on this Internal Hard-drive, however the External Hard that all these files are on has, just today, given real cause for concern that there is a problem with the drive.
    Itunes recognises that all my Music files are on this external harddrive
    So, I've just got a new external hard-drive and wish therefore to transfer all the Music files and podcasts from where they are all located as detailed about.
    At present, I'm transferring ALL the music files from the old Ext HD to the NEW external HD.
    All my podcasts remain on my Internal HD.
    So what to do?
    Many thanks

    So move (which since this is between drives is actually copy and then delete):
    USERS/cjb/Music/Itunes/itunesMusic/Podcasts/ArtsandIdeas
    to:
    /Volumes>WDPassport/AUDIO/MyMusic/INDPAKPOP/ARRAHMAN/Taal
    I don't usually move files between drives after I have added them to iTunes. What you many need to do is delete the concerned items from iTunes, then add them again from thir new location. With your settings (which I use) iTunes is good about keeping track of files when moved about inside a drive but not between drives. I suspect that once you delete them from your internal drive (as part of the moving) iTunes will say it cannot find them anymore. So you'll need to add them again.
    One other thing you could try (might work) is one of [Dougscripts|http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scriptcount.php?sortBy=Name& op=y] called "Move files to Folder" Again, I haven't tried this between drives (use it frequently inside my main drive) but it may preclude you having to delete the item from iTunes. It's possible you may just end up with a copy on the external and internal (and you can just delete the internal), or it might even be smart enough to handle that and it will do it all for you. I'd try it on maybe one file first, then use command+r on the file in iTunes to reveal where the referenced file is located. After that check if there is still one on your podcasts folder on the original drive.
