ITunes freeze while listening radio through Apple TV

Hi there.
I've got problem with iTunes. It's freezes while I listen internet radio through Apple TV. It happens after about 15-20 minutes. Music continue plays but iTunes freezes and do not open. All updates to Mac and Apple TV has been installed.

Hi Dreanmachine1,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
When you purchase a song on your Apple TV, it is available on all of your devices. There are a few reasons why you may not see the song on your iOS devices or your MacBook Pro. They may not be set up to download purchases automatically, or you may not have been signed into the iTunes Store.
I'd suggest trying to download the purchases on your other devices using the steps in this article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

You may also want to check your automatic download settings, so you can receive future songs automatically. See this article for help:

All the best,

i've got this problem when I change my ipod nano to ipod Generation 5

ITunes freezes while transferring TV season from Apple TV back to computer

I bought a season of a show on the Apple TV and it downloaded the entire season fine. When I open up iTunes and it starts syncing, it indicates that the computer is transferring the shows from the Apple TV back to the computer, but then iTunes freezes in the middle. The Apple TV appears to be fine. I'm currently running Custom Sync as the option.
I'm running 2.4 ATV OS, the latest iTunes (8.2) on a Windows XP. Network is a Linksys 54G wireless router.
I've looked at some things and have tried reauthorizing, rebooting, etc. It's a pain because I have some new content that I want to get on the Apple TV, but it defaults to transferring shows back before adding new content from iTunes onto the AppleTV.
Any thoughts?

Thanks for the update, but that doesn't really help me since my computer (desktop) and my computer about about 50 feet from each other and I really have no desire to unplug either to sync. The reality is that this has been a problem with 2.4 since it was released a month and a half ago and there is no reason why Apple hasn't fixed it by now.
What this has led me to do is not download any shows to my AppleTV, I just buy them on my computer now and the downstream sync works fine.

After updating to iTunes 10.5, iTunes freezes while syncing and doesn't recognize a cd in the cd drive

I have a 160gb iPod Classic that is about 3 years old. I just added new music to iTunes 2 days ago and synced my iPod. Today, when I opened iTunes, it asked for the update to 10.5. I allowed the update, added some more music to my library and synced iTunes with my iPod again. When the sync was done and I ejected my iPod, it appeared that all of my music, videos, podcasts and photos were erased from iPod. When I try to sync it again, iTunes freezes about 10 miniutes into syncing and then only about 300 songs appear on the iPod. I tried to restore the iPod which has led to more difficulties. Also, I noticed when I attempted to add music to my music library, iTunes no longer recognizes that there is a disc in the CD drive. I am running Windows 7, 64 bit and there seems to be alot of problems in the community after the iTunes 10.5 update. I have also been getting unknown error messages followed by the codes (-48), (-50), (-120), and (-53). Does anyone have any answers??? Help Please.... I have a library of 13,144 songs and I want them back on my iPod.

Since updating to iTunes 10.5 I am unable to view the iTunes Store - using Windows XP; Have the minimum system requirements changed for 10.5? What has changed? The Sync in 10.5 also seems to be slower than previously. What exactly does 10.5 deliver, to Users?
To make matters worse, in iPhone OS.5 it is not possible to purchase a Series (for instance) unless there is sufficient space to download direct to the Phone; Previously you could confirm the purchase on your iPhone and then use iTunes 'Check for Available Downloads' to download. This was the only available work-around to a dysfunctional online Store. Nice one Apple - you have successfully prevented me from making purchases (of any size) from your store; Why was this change necessary and how is it desirable?
NB: it should not be necessary (nor is it desirable) to uninstall anti-virus software to acommodate iTunes; although you may need to modify its configuration (confirming the Store connection is 'safe') during or after install

ITunes freezes while copying to iPod

I seem to have suddenly developed a problem with iTunes freezing whenever I try to copy individual songs or whole playlists to my iPod. I have taken the iPod to a local Apple store and it checked out OK, but iTunes still freezes ...... maybe, this relates to the other postings here about problems with the latest iTunes version?
What I would like to do is reinstall iTunes, but I do not know how to uninstall first (I am not at all familiar with how this works in the Mac environment since for the 1.5 yrs I've had my G5 I've never had ANY software issues!). Any help would be appreciated!

I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes from Apple's site and installed it, but it still freezes when trying to copy to my iPod.
I would really love to perform a complete uninstall of iTunes and reinstall the latest version, but how do I uninstall iTunes???

Ipad screen freezes while listening to music

this problem has occurred several times since i upgraded to IOS5 and basically when i am listening to music and want to change playlist or genre,etc... the screen freezes and it will not let me change to what i selected.Whatever i'm listening to that's it unless i go and restore ipad to it's original settings and then it works well until down the road it decides to freeze and must perform restore again.
Please help.Thx.

Ok,i am replying to my question and i have found the solution!
I had set my auto lock to never and when i changed the auto lock to 15 minutes all my problems went away.It's been a week and my problem with the screen going black and not beign able to make any changes while listening to the music app has not come back.
Hopefully whomever reads this and has the same problem just follow my example and you should be fine.
Good luck

ITunes Freezes While Syncing iPod!

Hello,
I've seen tons of unanswered "itunes freezes" posts, but I'm hoping to get lucky. Before I even upgraded iTunes, a freezing problem started happening.
Anytime I copy some mp3's to my ipod, I see it add them all and then it goes into the "Syncing iPod - Please Wait" message, and iTunes freezes every single time. In order to use iTunes again, I have to completely CtrlAltDel and close iTunes then disconnect and reconnect my iPod. After I'll be able to reopen iTunes and use it until I have to sync my iPod again.
I'm using an iPod classic (160GB) and Windows Vista.
I've already tried completely uninstalling iTunes and all other programs by Apple Inc. and reinstalling iTunes and the problem still happens. I even upgraded to the latest version of iTunes and the problem still occurs.
I've tried changing the drive letter of my iPod that doesn't help either.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks so much!

OK, I read your first message again and can't seem to see where you wrote you didn't have all the music on your PC, but never mind, at least we got that straight before you went and restored your iPod!
I'm afraid you've run into the situation where it is risky to only have a copy of your music on the ipod, because everyone needs to restore their ipod sooner or later....that being said, you can get a 3rd-party utility to copy your music off your ipod onto an external hard drive, perhaps?
Or else try an ipod reset (which will NOT erase the music on your iPod), but I don't think that is going to help your syncing woes.

Itunes freezing while importing a certain cd?

I am trying to import "Audioslave" by Audioslave and it keeps freezing while trying to import the second track on this album. When this happens I am forced to eject the cd to get itunes to respond. If I uncheck all but the second track, the rest of the cd will import fine. The cd is in fairly rough condition, with some scratches, but I thought if this was what caused the problem the cd would not import at all. Would this cause it to freeze like this or is it something else? What other issues could cause this?
Thanks

That sounds like the problem is in the CD. But first, if you have not checked the error correction box, check it and try to import that track again. If no joy, rip that track in another program, such as Windows Media Player or CDex.
If those don't help, the next thing to do is to get one of those services that will re-surface your CD for a few bucks, to solve the scratch problem. If all else fails, buy that one track from your favorite online music download store.

I purchased a song from iTunes radio through Apple TV. The song does not show up on my iOS devices or my MacBook Pro?

I tried out the new iTunes Radio last night through my Apple TV. Even purchased a song. Can't find the song through any of my iOS devices or my MacBook Pro music library. What am I missing? It said that the song would be on my devices. Help?

Western Digital 1TB My Book Pro Freezes while listening to iTunes.

MP3 collection is on the MyBook.
iTunes plays MP3s when all of a sudden, during a song, it halts playback and Finder with it (beachball).
Can't access Finder nor the mounted MyBook drive. Any kind of query on the MyBook (through Terminal or Disk Utility) at this point hangs the app that is querying. MyBook lights are on constantly.
Upon shutdown the system hangs at the blue screen forever until I do a hard shutdown with the MBP's power button and disconnect from FW800 port at which point drive turns off.
Upon restart it's fine until I go into iTunes again and hangs again (not at the same song). I am able to replicate this problem everytime.
Any suggestions?

What are your Energy settings? Is your MacBook or MyBook going to sleep? You say you can repeat it, is it repeatable at exactly the same time? If so this would make me think it is something to do with your power settings.
Hey Rimcrazy, no my MBP is not going to sleep. The power settings are to set to Custom which leaves the MBP always on 24/7 pretty much. The problem is indeed repeatable but not at the same time. I've emailed WD about it and I have yet to receive answer. The MyBook is going to sleep when not active (normal) and the data seems to be intact after numerous hard shutdowns.

Why does my iTunes freezes while trying to sync my iPod Touch?

When I try to sync my 2nd Gen. iPod Touch, it freezes partly. It froze when a pop up from iTunes saying it's 'Adding Files' and below it, it says 'Processing: 20100314211421.m4a'. I'm pretty sure I know that I didn't download this file. And when I try to search it by the whole number '20100314211421' my computer couldn't locate it. BUT if I search in the first couple numbers like '2010' it shows a bunch of them and it's mostly [ MyDocuments / My Music / iTunes/ iTunes Music ] folder so I'm guessing it's from iTunes. After figuring that out, I uninstall iTunes 3 times and it still wouldn't sync!
+ When it froze, I could still listen to music although it doesn't play the next track.
++ Also, my iPod is the 4.0 version
+ And when I check my iPod ... nothing changes...
Please help! It's been bothering me for days now.

Hello All,
I recommend call Apple: 1800 MY APPLE
Have them document the issue in the system, and provide a resolution if one is available. If there is none they will work it until they find one.
This "may" fix the issue:

ITunes freezes while trying to import CD (spin wheel action)

Occassionally when I try to upload a CD into my iTunes library, it will get part way through and then suddenly freeze, displaying the ever annoying spin wheel. I can't figure out how to cancel the import or quit out of iTunes, eject the CD, etc. I have tried force quitting and nothing happens. Any suggestions?

By any chance, do you have an old copy of MusicMatch Jukebox installed on the PC?
(I've seen one case recently with similar symptoms occuring if the mmjb.exe process from the MusicMatch JukeBox was running while trying to do the import in iTunes.)

Streamng internet radio through Apple TV

I would like to use my new Apple TV to stream internet radio over my home audio system. But when I look at my internet radio playlist on the Apple TV, I get the message "No songs in this playlist". The radio streams are fine through iTunes. Am I missing something or is this just not possible? If not, why?

To stream radio stations you need to create a playlist and then drag and drop the stations to the list. To do that go to iTunes radio and copy and paste to the playlist. If you don't know how to do this I can further explain. Tip: Name the playlist "-Radio" and then the list will appear before the rest of them for easy access. Its the dash that does it.

IPod and iTunes freezes while uploading music

So a couple of weeks ago, I was using my 40Gb iPod when suddenly it froze. I reset it but when I tried to play another song, it skipped all of them as if they weren't there. I had lost my entire library in an instant. Once I got back to my computer (Powerbook) I managed to restore it. During this the folder with the exclamation mark and the run-click-run-click problems showed up. Now after successfully restoring it, I can't get my music back on it. For some reason at various points in uploading songs (whether it be after 20 songs or 2000) both my iTunes and iPod freezes. I normally reset it which causes the "improper device removal" sign to come up. Then when I plug it back into my computer I get the message that iTunes can't recognize the information on my iPod and that I need to restore it again. However sometimes it takes 3 or 4 times of it freezing during uploading to get that message. Either way, I can't get my library of music back onto my iPod without it freezing. I never see the folder with exclamation mark and the music that I do managed to get on there works perfectly fine.
Does anyone have a clue what is wrong with my iPod and is there anyway to fix it?

I tried the update with no success. Here's another update after actually trying to use my iPod:
When I have it just plugged into headphones or speakers half of the songs cut off in the middle, just a little bit off near the end. Some don't work at all. Plus my iPod is very slow while moving through the menus.
When I have it plugged into the Monster FM transmitter, I really can't get anything to work. It freezes on almost every song. The most I can get a song to play is about 16 seconds before it skips over to the next.
This seems just seems really messed up but it seems to be a software problem. Any ideas?
