ITunes crashing when listening to music previews

Has anyone else experienced this problem. I have no problems accessing the Music Store - even if it is slower then usual - but everytime I try to listen to a song preview my iTunes crash. I'm not totally sure, but I believe the problems started with iTunes 7.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

I have the same problems. Before i tunes 7 everything worked fine. Now it takes ages to listen to one song. I get messages like re buffering or network stalled. I tried everything that Apple suggested but nothing worked. I also have a pretty fast broadband connection.

ITunes 11.1.2 Crashes When Listening to Music (External HD)

I have my entire iTunes Media Library on a Western Digital External HD. I've never had any issues with iTunes interacting with the External HD. Since installing iTunes 11.1.2 (Mavericks), iTunes crashes after listening to 10 minutes of music. If iTunes is just open (no media is playing) it will not crash. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Ok, an update, iTunes just crashes randomly, nothing to do with streaming to Apple TV. However, my MacBook Air runs exactly the same software on Maverick and no problem at all, works smoothly. Is is something iMac related? Anybody experiences the same?

Lumia 920 crash when listening to music

Hi,
My Nokia Lumia 920, windows 8 mobile keeps crashing when I listen to music from "Nokia Music". I usually use nokia-provided headsets when listening to music. In recent times the crash has become more frequent. When listening to music, the handset just reboots without any notification.
Is there a place I could look at the crash dump and submit it as an issue ?
OS Version: 8.0.10211.201

have you tried a soft reset? i'm not talking about what you think might or might not work, i'm talking about trying it. it doesn't wipe any data. if it still doesn't work, then you may need to perform a hard reset (Settings > About > Reset your phone), which will wipe everything, so please make a backup to PC and/or online storage of your data first.
failing that, you will need to take your phone to your Nokia Care for inspection: http://nokia.com/support

Crashes when listening to music

Since a couple of months ago, I can't listen to music with Itunes because it keeps crashing after 1 to 3 songs playing. I'm keeping either my system or my Itunes updated and nothing seems to help. Any suggestions?

Hi annietar,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with iTunes. The article below will suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the iTunes application.
Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue
If this issue is with content in your iTunes library, if you have a Time Machine backup, you could restore the library from an earlier date.
Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots.
I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
Mac Basics: Time Machine
With Time Machine you can go "back in time" to restore files, versions of files, or your entire system.
You can use the timeline on the right side of the window to reach a certain point back in time (the timeline shows the times of all backups on your backup drive). If you don’t know exactly when you deleted or changed a file, you can use the back arrow to let Time Machine automatically travel through time to show you when that folder last changed.
Note: Dates in pink indicate the data resides on your Time Machine backup device. Dates in white indicate the data resides on your Mac. In OS X Mountain Lion and Lion, portable Macs have the feature of local snapshots. See this article for details.
To restore, select the file/folder and click the "Restore" button. The file will automatically be copied to the desktop or appropriate folder. If the file you are restoring has another file in the same location with the same name, you will be prompted to choose which file to keep or keep both.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

ITunes crashes when I view music library in Cover-Flow view.

*Whenever I try to view my music library in cover-flow mode iTunes freezes. The only way I can close it is to use Task Manager to stop the iTunes.exe process.* I can then restart iTunes which works fine until I try to switch to Cover-Flow view and it immediately crashes again. Not a show-stopper, but very annoying. This has happened with versions 9.1, 9.2, and now 9.2.1.4
I'm running a Win 7 Ultimate Sony Vaio laptop with 3 gigs memory. Grateful for any suggestions!

Have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base and let us know if it solves your problem.

ITunes crashes when I sync music with iphone.

I use OS X Lion, iTunes 10.4 and iphones iOS 4.3.3. I've upgraded both iTunes and Iphone but nothing helps. I can sync everything but music. What's worse; when my iphone is connected it says that my music IS synced, but my Iphone says that there is no music on it. What to do?

Wow, I just deleted my playlist that I had and that fixed the problem..

Itunes Crashes when importing Music File or Folder on Windows 7 64-Bit with Itune 10.5 and update ios 5

Itunes crashes when importing Music File or Folder ever since i updated it yesterday

You can try downloading 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and unpack the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file into its components then try installing them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe or iCloud.msi). You may get a more useful error message as to which component has problems.

ITunes crashes when I try to downlaod music from CD's

iTunes crashes when I try to download Cds however it allows me to listen to them. I have tried re-installing itunes and quicktime but it hasn't made a difference. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Do you possibly mean iTunes crashes when attempting to rip media from the CDs or when attempting to download media from the iTunes store?

Itunes crashes when importing music (v10.5.2.11, Win 7 (64))

iTunes crashes whenever I try to import either a file or folder - regardless of the file format (e.g. WMA, MP3 etc.).
This is only a recent problem. Is the only option to try to re-install iTunes?
Thanks for any assistance.

ITunes crashes when I connect my iPod to the PC when iTunes is running....

I have written about this problem before, but there have not been any successful solutions as of this date. I will explain my situation a little further and maybe someone can help.
Most of the time, when I connect my iPod to my pc while iTunes is running, the instance the iPod shows up on the library site, and whenever I move the cursor, iTunes crashes, so I have to close iTunes right away and try to disconnect my iPod. Most of the time, a message comes up that says info is being transferred to the ipod and that I shouldn't disconnet it at that time, but I usually go ahead because I know it isn't transferring at that time, since itunes has crashed.
Sometimes, after I have clicked on the first message to go ahead and disconnect my ipod, another messages comes up that says something to the effect of, "You can't disconnect because it is being used by another server at this time." So I click "OK" and then iTunes stays on for a few moments which gives me time to transfer a song or two, but then itunes crashes as soon as it finished transferring or before it finishes.
As anyone can imagine, this has really become a hugh problem. Having an iPod and not being able to use iTunes makes it very unhandy. I'm not able to add any new music or any of the playlists which i have been working on. Does anyone have a solution, or any suggestions as to what may be going on? It would be deeply appreciated.
I plan to restore my iPod in a day or two if I don't get a solution to this, but I don't have all of the music, videos, etc. that I have on the iPod since I removed much of it from iTunes to help the computer run faster. I had over 2000 items in the library, so it was pulling the pc down and it was taking forever to use the computer.
I am unable to use any of the software to transfer everything from my iPod to the iTunes library because of the problem with iTunes crashing when I connect the iPod, so this isn't a solution at this time.
Someone, please help!
HP Windows XP Using DSL for internet access

I suspect a hardware problem. But do the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: 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.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Resore the iPid to factoery defaults/new iPod.
In the latter part of you post, I thin you ar sayng that you do not have a syning computer and the music is not on the computer. If so, do the following so you will not lose anthing (or very little) when you restore.
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Best iPod to PC
- Connect the iPod to the computer and right click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Backup. This will make a backup so you can restore to the backup

When listening to music on ATV, it plays two songs from the playlist, then won't play any more. You can see playlist and songs, but won't respond. Any ideas?

When listening to music on ATV, it will play two songs from the playlist, then no more. You can see the playlist on songs, but it won't play. Turned everything off, reset the network...nothing works. Any ideas? It used to play fine...for hours at a time.

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
It is happening via "shuffle" in a playlist. Always two different songs within the playlist. You can see the next song on the screen that should, theoretically, be playing...but nothing happens. Even when you push "play" on the remote, it doesn't receive the command.
I reset, then restored ATV. Now, it doesn't limit itself to two songs, but does stop after a few. The more trial and error I do, the more I believe the problem is with Homesharing in iTunes. If I turn off Homeshare, then turn it back on, a couple more songs will play in the playlist. I have shut down iTunes, restarted computer, completed updates, but nothing seems to change it.
It used to play fine for hours on end, but has now found this glitch.

ITunes crashes when I'm trying to log in into iTunes store

After I've made my first purchase (of a music album) in iTunes store iTunes has crashed. And now iTunes crashes when I'm trying to log in into iTunes store. I've tried removing it, deleting iTunes folder in C:\Users\USER_NAME\Music and then installing iTunes. The problem's remained.
Additional info:
iTunes version: 11.3.1.2
Windows 8.1 64-bit.

I've solved the problem by updating Windows.
