Itunes download never stops

Now and then when I download songs to itunes the download never stops.  It says download is 100%.  Clicking on the x or pause has no effect. It says download is 100%.   The song appears in grey on the list with the full progress disk at the left.  But when I click on the song it plays all the way through.  I have to close itunes and open it again - I have to go through the activity monitor to do that; force quit doesn't work - to make the problem go away but that doesn't always work either.  Is there a fix?  Thank you.

  • HT201210 When I start to update an app, the circle indicating download never stops going around as in still going the next day.

    When I start to update, the circle indicating download never stops. It's still circling the next day. How do I fix this so that I can update my apps?

    Try deleting the app by tapping and holding until it wiggles, then tapping the X. Then try re-downloading it.

  • IPhone - iTunes - Syncing never stops ???

    Sorry, just have posted a question in the , i think, wrong group. So again here:
    Every time, i connect the iPhone, Sync starts and first does its job well (backup, calendar, adresses, music, and so on)! BUT the Sync then never stops. In iTunes display "syncing iPhone" runs und runs and i have to stop manually after some minutes. The Macs process statistic shows a growing and growing process-tree unil i stop it. Waht to do?
    greetings

    Seems, as if i have found the reason!!
    For upgrading my HD, i cloned the old 320GB on to a new 500GB HD. While cloning, i renamed the original "MacIntosh HD" to the name "MacBookPro HD". For all other Apps, this seems to be no problem. Now, i reconized, exact from that day, itunes worked, like explained. For testing i renamed the HD to "MacIntosh HD" again and iTunes workes fine, like before. May be, some pathes are encoded with the Harddisks Name, spec. Photos.

  • Yahoo Mail not being downloaded,  never stops "Checking for Mail"

    Since the first time I synced since the new itunes version and the 1.0.1 update, I have not received any mail populating into my Yahoo account. I tried the restart, shutting off the other email accounts, etc.
    I does not push, and when I try the Refresh, it never stops "Checking for Mail".
    My gmail works fine.
    Anyone have any ideas to correct?

    Same here but a little stranger. Two items:
    (1) If I go into my Yahoo Drafts, or Sent, or Trash, check mail works fast and I get the "Updated 8/26/07 time" message fine and it's accurate.
    If I switch to Yahoo In, the initial footer says "Updated 8/14/07 xxx" and has said that for a week or so. It quickly changes to "Checking for Mail" and then never stops.
    Anyone else see the "Checking for Mail" only on the IN box but not the others.
    (2) I have been sending test emails to Yahoo (basic account). #1 happens as above (ie no mail seems to arrive). But if I scroll to the bottom of the IN box and click "Load 25 more messages", it does seem to pick up the new messages. "Checking for Mail" is still going strong. This seems to work most of the time.
    Anyway. Not sure it this may help anyone figure this out.
    [I have tried the approaches suggested here such as deleting Yahoo, turning off other emails, resetting network, changing IMAP inbox location, etc]

  • HELP!! Uninstalled iTunes, try to reinstall but iTunes download just stops.

    After iTunes update, my iPhone sync would freeze up during "backing up iPhone". Apple website says to uninstall/reinstall iTunes. After uninstalling according to the sequence recommended at Apple.com, I try to download new iTunes but it repeatedly freezes at 12%. I have followed all of Apple.com's troubleshooting steps, (delete temp dirs, rebooting repeatedly, removing registry entries, etc.), but nothing helps. Does anyone know how I can get the new version of iTunes to download? Thanks for your help.

  • Itunes downloads keep stopping

    Well, my downloads were doing fine before I upgraded to Itunes 7. Now when they download they cut off and the message -3259 pops up and tells me that I'm not connected to the Itunes Music Store which is complete bull, because I'm operating the store and it is functioning because it's where I'm getting my downloads from. I looked at the support center and it doesn't have anything for error -3259 under Windows or Mac. Can somebody please help me out?

    Same problem here... mostly with TV shows. Small podcasts seem to do okay.
    It doesn't matter whether I'm connected to my own ISP (via WiFi or Ethernet cable) or any other network. It times out everywhere.

  • The download never stops trying to access the download site and there is no way to get help.....that is why it will never be my default browser...is there any help out there?????

    i keep getting asked to download an update and when I hit the tab it continualy is "trying to access the site" yet it never happens. Also when I have upgraded and need to move 1 image inside the other to load it, that set of images never vanishes......way too complicated unless s0meone can tell me how to fix it. This is why it has always been just a "backup" browser for me
    Please help!!

    Try here.
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    If necessary,let the battery fully drain and then charge and try again.

  • OS Download never stops

    Hello.
    I bought my zperia z2 in july and almos everything was ok, but suddenly on 7th of september I noticed that my 3G consumption was increasing and most of it was being used by the Operating System in background(which I can't disable).
    I thought that maybe was an update, but on update center everything there were nothing and it is checked to download just on WIFI.
    What can it be?

    thanks
    I guess it's backing up your device online, which is why it's taking so much data to upload.

  • ITunes 7.6.1...the torture never stops

    I have to say upfront that iTunes 7.6.1 is the worst version. Ever.
    I couldn't use 7.6 because I got spinning beachballs ALL the time. Had to revert backwards. When 7.6.1 came out I gave it a go and things have ben great.
    Until now.
    I decided to rent my first movie via iTunes last night. It's not been played yet, but it seems ever since I DL'ed that rental, iTunes is essentially useless. I can play a song and within 10 seconds the beachball comes up and never stops. I can't play another song. I end up force quitting. I won't even try to play the movie rental for fear it'll freeze up during playback and then I'll be screwed.
    So, it looks like I'll have to go back to a previous version. Again. Make that twice now. I hate 7.6.1 and 7.6. Now I'll have to search the forums to recall how to go back to a stable version rather than watch the movie I downloaded to watch at this time. Then I won't be able to watch the rental on a previous version and I'm screwed out of a rental.
    I won't go back to another version (after I revert today) until 7.7 comes out. I am also irked that Apple apparently is in no hurry to address the many issues this version has. 7.6 acts like a Beta version and I've no idea (other than $$ from rentals) why they released such an unstable version. It's so Un-Apple like and more like the Borg from Redmond rather than the Cats from Cupertino.

    Have you tried it with a different users?

  • HT1373 I have a new Ipad with retina display but two issues with itunes 1) I can not syncronize films&music with the library on my mac and 2) When I download music or films from itunes to my ipad from itunes store the download never finishes. Any help??

    I have a two problems with my new Ipad 2 operating system iOS 6.1.3
    1) I can not syncronize with my itunes purchaces that I have on my mac book pro (operating system mountain lion)
    2) When i purchase items from itunes store the downloads never finishes
    I have tried starting and re-starting. Resetting the Ipad to original settings and non of this have worked. Any idea to what I should do?
    Thanks a lot, Josephine

    That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
    So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
    But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

    I am using windows 7 64

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • ITUNES downloads from store causing BSOD windows stop error- Please Help!

    Hi everyone,
    maybe someone can help me out or knows how to fix this problem.
    Problem in detail:
    This problem started since I updated to the latest version of itunes 7 to download video for my ipod video 30gb. Itunes worked perfect on my computer before updating as I used it with an ipod mini.
    I was able to use my new IPOD 30gb fine and transfer all my music to it correctly.
    The main problem occurrs when downloading anything from itunes store...1st noticed this when my podcasts were updating and downloading and then the system suddenly crashed with the windows blue screen error message and had to reboot. This happened multiple times so I disabled the automatic downloads of podcasts. Itunes then works fine when not downloading anything.
    I then tried purchasing a TV show, whole series, and when it began downloading, the Exact same Error and Blue screen will occur--Very Frustrating.
    I uninstalled ITUNES and Quicktime, and then reinstalled them via the latest download from itunes. The same errors still occur.
    When windows reboots and sends error report to Microsoft, it states the error is due to a Driver error of which the specific driver is not known.
    I have called apple/itunes support and spoke with them and they could not figure out the problem and said I should check with my computers cust service and/or microsoft as it was probably something on this end...I did this and they stated the problem must be something with itunes and especially since all other programs run fine on my system.
    SO basically I am going in circles trying to figure this out so I am hoping someone here may know how to fix this problem.
    Not only that, but I tried the same on my desktop as I figured I could at least download my podcasts and purchases to my desktop and then transfer to my ipod from there(as I am mainly using my labtop for my ipod) and updated my desktop to itunes 7 latest version,, and figured it would work on my desktop with same operating system----but it Caused the SAME error BSOD as my labtop and in same fashion....only when downloading from itunes.
    ANy help is much appreciated as I got the ipod video mainly because of ITUNES video content and podcasts and if I cannot use these major functions on ITUNES than This Was a Complete Waste for me to get the Video IPOD.
    Hope there is a way to fix
    Thanks

    I afraid can’t help much with this, but no one else
    has answered. It does seem very odd that two
    different computers have the same problem. It makes
    you wonder about the content you were trying to
    download. As a matter of interest was the
    installation for both computers done from the same
    download file?
    When your computer dies, can you read the stop
    message or does it disappear, if it does, go to
    Control Panel>System>Advanced
    Click Settings in Start Up and Recovery and make sure
    that Automatically Restart is no checked.
    You should be able to get a stop number from the blue
    screen and you may also be able to identify the
    filename of a driver, which could give a clue to the
    problem.
    The Microsoft Website has a certain amount of help on
    specific stop messages, you can search for the number
    of the stop message which will be something like
    0x0000000A.
    There is also some help on troubleshooting stop
    messages here:
    http://aumha.org/win5/kbestop.htm
    Thanks for your reply.
    As far as the content being downloaded from itunes---consisted of different podcasts and also on a separate occasion-the tv show Heroes complete season on ITUNES..So I would guess the error has nothing to do with the content being downloaded.
    The ITUNES installation for both computers was from the same itunes download file on this website on apples itunes free download.
    I did not write down the most recent stop numbers and no drivers seemed to be named on the blue screen from what I could tell, but I guess I could be missing something...
    From a previous crash with the BSOD- the error message listed was this: STOP: 0x00000050 (0xbad0b158, 0x00000000, 0x8056ea22, 00000002)
    not sure if this helps maybe figure out the cause of this or not.
    Maybe this will help get to the bottom of this.
    Thanks

  • ITunes Match has stopped uploading - every file errors and says waiting - I have tried to delete the files and use other formats etc.  I have had the service since Day 1 and NEVER had an issue.  It didn't start until the Delete from Cloud switch to Hide

    iTunes Match has stopped uploading - every file errors and says waiting - I have tried to delete the files and use other formats etc.  I have had the service since Day 1 and NEVER had an issue.  It didn't start until the Delete from Cloud switch to Hide from cloud - the files that do not upload show grayed out on my other devices.

    Have you confirmed that you successfull purged iTunes Match by also looking on an iOS device?  If so, keep in mind that Apple's servers may be experiencing a heavy load right now.  They just added about 19 countries to the service and I've read a few accounts this morning that suggests all's not running perfectly right now.

  • I'm trying to update my iTunes and it says that an old copy of bonjour can't be uninstalled. Then the download just stops. Any help is appreciated.

    I am trying to update my iTunes and a message comes up that an old copy of bonjour cannot be uninstalled. The download just stops. I tried to uninstall bonjour but it says I need to find an alternate route to bonjour. I'm not particularly computer technically savvy, so I'm not sure how to rectify this. Any ideas?

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
