Itunes downloaded movies keep freezing during playback

and i have to keep pressing play every few seconds

Hi mate
Sorry about the lack of information but I must admit that I am not the best on computers but I am trying to learn. The best way to describe what is happening is this -
I download videos from sky player or a sharing site and it downloads fine as I have done since January. When I try to watch the movie it will start fine but after several minutes of watching it the screen freezes (only for a nano second) and then starts again. There does not seem to be a problem when I watch a DVD just via this way.
Now trying to answer your questions, I currently use windows media player as I am on windows 7.
I have attached my diagnostics report about my system if that helps below:-

ITunes keeps freezing during playback on windows 8

iTunes 11.0.1.12 is freezing periodically (30-40 times per day) for up to 3-5 minutes, regardless of what I'm doing. Note, this does not happen during any specific activity, but during simple music playback. When this happening, iTunes shows in the Task Manager as "Not Responding".
My PC Specs:
OS: Windows 8 64bit
Ram: 16GB
Intel Core i7-3770KCPU @ 3.50GHz
I did not have this problem with iTunes in Windows 7. I believe that all of my settings are the same.
I have tried: elevating the process priority in Task Manager.
Running iTunes as the Administrator (program properties on shortcut).
Thanks,
Ken

Hi Kengc2,
I'm having the same problem as you.
Running
OS: Win 8 64bit
Ram: 8GB
Intel Core i7 - 2600k @ 3.5GHz
Must be something in Windows 8, as I did not have any problems with Win 7.
Having said that my itunes foldered is stored on my NAS so not sure is the slow network speed is causing the issue.
Interested to know whether windows makes a hot fix or whethers apple are secretly trying to get more Apple customers

Trying to down load itunes but it keeps freezing during down load :(

I cant download itunes for my ipod i was given by a friend ? im new to it all ? also while trying to download itunes it always freezes on me???

I would suggest giving us more details and clarify both questions.
From your message, I got these two questions, please confirm that they are the right ones:
1) You were given an iPod from a friend and you want to load your music onto it?
2) When you're downloading the iTunes program from the internet, your browser becomes unresponsive and freezes?
If those aren't the correct questions, please take time to write them in a way that we'll understand exactly what you're trying to do.
Once we have an idea of what you're asking, we can try to answer properly.
Thanks!

Why do my itunes downloaded movies get suck frequently

Why do my itunes downloaded movies get stuck during streaming when my other accounts, i.e. netflix and amazon prime have no problems?

Is their really no solution to this problem? That would be really disappointing.
I have newly installed iTunes software on a new machine, and the iTunes software is broken from the beginning.
I purchased my music through the iTunes store because I thought it would make my life easier. It is sad to find out that this is not the case.

My iTunes movie rental freezes during the opening credits always at the same place.

my iTunes movie rental freezes during the opening credits always at the same place. What is the cure? Can I recieve credit for the rental since I could not view it in its entirerty?

Hi Epski
Let us know how you go as i'm having the same issue also. I upgraded to yosemite and itunes 12 at the same time and thought the OS upgrade was the issue. I downgraded back to Mavericks again (for lots of reasons i won't go in to here) thinking this would fix the problem but it didn't.
When i play any video content from itunes 12 in full screen goes dark once the controls fade away. QT, appletv or anything else plays them perfectly, as per itunes 11!
You don't have a Samsung TV by any chance do you?

How to report an issue with Your iTunes Store purchase

Movies & Episodes stopping during playback

Has anyone else have any issues with the iPhone during video playback? I got the free version of the new Terminator series and downloaded Transformers toady. During playback of Terminator (20 minutes) it cut out to the file selection screen. During playback of Transformers it cut out again halfway through the movie. {post edited by moderator}.
Does anyone have any insight as to stop this from happening?

How much free storage space do you have available on your iPhone?
I have never experienced the same.
Standard troubleshooting procedures in order are power the iPhone off/on, Reset by pressing and holding the Home key and Sleep/Wake or On/Off key simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so which doesn't affect and data or settings, Restore and if no change after any and all, give AppleCare a call (800) 694-7466 or make an appointment at a local Apple Store to have this checked if there is one nearby.

HT1657 Movie keeps freezing and not playing. Every two or three minutes? First time with this probel, why is it happening?

Have rented a movie. Trying to watch through iTunes and it keeps freezing! have watched many this way without this issue at all. Whay is it happening now?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Itunes,on XP,keeps freezing

latest Itunes,on XP,keeps freezing when try burn playlist, was working fine week ago,any ideas?

I couldnt find a topic for my question, so maybe you could help...when creating an account on itunes, why does it ask for credit card info? And what if you purchase or redeem itune cards for purchasing songs, do you still need to register a credit card, this seems lame. Is there any way around this?, (Also how do you post a new topic in here?) thanks...

Why does my Flash Player keep freezing during video play back?

I have the very lastest version for Windows 7 64bit OS and it keeps freezing during video play back. The previous versions did not do this. I have to keep the cursor moving inside the video window to prevent the player freezing. I have deslected HARDWARE ACCELERATION and it does not help. Why is this happening and how do I correct this situation?

Right click ANY Flash content and choose "Setings".
Click the folder icon (center tab) and increase the storage to at least 10Mb.

ITunes 7.6 Keeps Freezing!

i just upgraded to 7.6, after having numerous problems with 7.5. now i still have all of the problems of 7.5 (burning/importing very very slow), but now, itunes 7.6 keeps freezing for like 30 secs, about every other minute. its INCREDIBLY annoying. anyone got any tips on how to fix this?
example: when i right click on a song, the menu doesnt pop up for 30 secs, and if im listening to a song, the track time will freeze for about 30 secs.

Dreifort,
Are you saying that Bonjour is what's causing your system to freeze or are you just noticing that Bonjour was installed with iTunes 7.6?
Sharing of music between computers on the same network (i.e. people on the same router) has been part of iTunes since iTunes 4.1 which was the first version that ran on Windows. The difference being that in previous versions Bonjour was compiled into the application, making the iTunes application bigger and now it is a separate external service.
Bonjour is currently required for a number of features in iTunes. (1) sharing between local computers, (2) remote speakers or sharing between your computer and your stereo, and (3) Apple TV or sharing between your computer and your TV. iTunes has and will continue to ship technology (like Quicktime) that it needs to make its features work.
Nothing is being (or has ever been) sent back to Apple or any Apple server via Bonjour network connections.

HD DVR's Freezes during Playback

I have 2 HD DVR boxes. Lately each box seems to "freeze" during playback of the various programs I have recorded. I am not able to fast forward or rewind the program. If I stop the playback and try to view the program from the beginning, the video again freezes at the same point. It is almost like there is a corrupt file for that area of the program. Is there any way to remedy this situation? It seems to be happening more and more on both set top boxes. Thanks!

I have the same problem on a QIP6416 HD DVR. In the past 2 weeks 3 different recorded programs have frozen during playback and cannot skip or fast forward beyond the frozen point. I can delete the frozen program, but problem has re-occurred several times in the last 3 weeks while other recordings are OK. It does feel like a corrupt file, or bad disk blocks on the DVR, or messed up file structure system that a chkdsk in a Windows environment would fix. Is there are any solution to resolve this problem?
