Itunes freezes after one use

I have been transferring CD's to the library.
After transferring one Cd, itunes freezes and nothing else works. Windows does not shutdown and Outlook does not work.
I have Windows XP.

It seems that I'm not alone. Is there anyone who can help with this issue. I have have around 300 Cd's and the thought of trying to reboot after each Cd is mind numbing. Your help is greatly appreciated.

ITunes freezes after one cd import

I'm able to import one cd, then click eject to remove the cd just imported. When I insert another cd iTunes freezes. I need to restart my computer to be able to import the second cd. Any ideas of what's wrong? Thanks.

Rented movie but it kept freezing after one minute of play -help please

Rented a movie on Apple TV but it kept freezing after one minute of play - help please

Try waiting a few minutes, or longer, to see if the beachball goes away. Start up iTunes, then go do something else for awhile. Perhaps iTunes is going some overdue bookkeeping and once you let it do it it will work again.

I tried it with a differnt Iphone and the results are the same. Any suggestions?

Hi JZN1994,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that after updating your computer to 10.9.3 iTunes stops responding when an iPhone is connected to it. There may be few different steps you will need to go through to get this resolved. I suggest working through the steps in the attached article.

Ipod freezing after not using it for 2 days

my Ipod freezes after not using it for 2 days, should i go to the apple store and get a new 1, or is this normal. If i do go to the apple store, i would probably get a nano right since they dont sell mini's anymore

What do you mean it "freezes". After 36 hours of inactivity the mini will go into 'deep sleep' mode. When awoken from deep sleep, the iPod will appear to reset. Is this what yours is doing? If so, it's normal.
Also, Apple still has a stock of minis available for warranty claims, so you wouldn't get a nano.
Cheers!

WVC80N Monitoring Utility Software- Freezes after one or two frames. Tech support no help!

Hello All,
I have a new WVC80N cam and a new WRT230N router. After installing both, everything is up and running perfectly via IE. I can access from any IE computer with no problems. HOWEVER, the desktop monitoring utility will NOT work! I only have one cam attached (wired because the sound it TERRIBLE if wireless despite HOURS of troubleshooting with tech support) but it freezes after one or two frames. I've tried on XP and Vista. Tech Support in Irvine, CA simply siad there is a software conflict (and that there are many they know of), but offered NO other diagnostic help. He simply said it's probably conflicting with another video compression software on my computer and to start uninstlling programs until the problem is fixed! WAY TO GO TECH SUPPORT....THATS A REAL SOLUTION FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS!!! Oh and he asked me to notify them IF I found the problem!!!!
Does anyone have any ideas about common software that may be causing my conflicts? Or has anyone experienced the same issues? There isn't much on these boards about this problem and I can't believe that I'm the only one who has experienced the utility software NOT working on TWO different computers and two Operating systems. These are my first linksys products in a VERY long time, and so far they'll be my last!!!!!!!!
ANY HELP/IDEAS is GREATLY appreciated.

Hello Bahamaboy,
Your problem is exactly my problem. I tried both Windows Xp and 7. I can see live video, but the utility only record for a few second and freeze. There is no tech support in my country - cambodia, so I'm in a more serious situation. I also need help. May be I should tried from a fresh windows installation, but what is it good for. It takes lot of time to reinstall everything. Your comments do suggest some software conflict. I think I will try it on my laptop rather than my desktop, which I do not have lot of software installed on my laptop.
(Mod note: Edited post for guideline compliance. Thanks!)

ITunes freezes after playing one song

Since upgrading to the new iTunes that was released today, after playing one song in iTunes in Windows, the program freezes and the only way out is to End Process on it. This only happens the first time that Windows starts up. After iTunes freezes and I End Process on it, and then run it again, it doesn't have this problem until the next time that Windows starts up.
Anyone know what's going on and how to fix it?

Turns out "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service" was doing something that held up the computer when I used iTunes. So I followed these steps to disable the service permanently (since I don't use Windows Media Player): http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/fix-wmpnetwk-exe-in-windows-7/

ITunes freezes after importing one cd and alters normal computer function

After I import one CD, my computer will not recognize any other cds I insert and itunes freezes. After I force itunes to quit, my computer continues to "act up" and will not retrieve any webpage information from the internet. If I try to restart itunes it fails to open and does not give me any sort of error message. I have to reboot my computer to resume normal function.
I did the remove and reinstall of Quicktime recommended in other discussions since those problems seemed similar to mine. However, it didn't do the trick.
I am running McAfee, not Norton.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Windows XP

Also having issues with similar problem. Also cannot burn CD's with new music purchased, however, old music works perfectly. I noticed that after purchase, there is also a return on the account purchasing FROM. DOn't know if this means that the music is no longer licensed, as it would seem that it is unpaid for at this time. Are you able to assist? This would be easier by phone, but no phone support available.

Itunes freezes after importing CD

Itunes works fine, if just listening and navigating through my library, but when I import a new CD via the CDROM, itunes freezes up and it is necessary to restart the computer to get itunes to work properly again. I am currently using Itunes 7.5 as I am afraid to upgrade after reading all the problems in these discussions, not chancing on making things worse. This problem started obvioussly after agreeing to Apple's suggestion to upgrade itunes software.

Does it freeze if you just import one song?

ITunes freezes after 30 seconds

No matter what I do on my computer, my iTunes automatically freezes after 30 seconds of opening. How can I fix this? Because I can't even buy music or sync my iPod.

Hi if not now,
In order to see your device in iTunes you may just need to select the option to have the Sidebar shown, something that by default is not displayed. This is where Devices and other items are displayed that you may be trying to locate.
iTunes 11: Frequently used features
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
Show Status Bar - Choose View > Show Status Bar (this feature will conveniently display the number of items and playback time for a category, for example, music or movies).
I hope this helps!

ITunes freezes after playing or ripping a disc

I'm having big trouble with iTunes. Every time I play or rip a CD, iTunes freezes if I try to eject the disc or close down iTunes. Everything else works fine up to the point when I try to close iTunes and the whole PC locks up and I have to re-boot. I think the problem started when I switched from a USB ADSL modem to an ADSL router/modem. I was running iTunes 8.1 but the problem persisted after I upgraded to 8.2. I'm using Windows XP.
Any ideas folks?

Tania,
This exact same problem has been happening to me (and lots of other people) for quite some time now. What type of computer do you have? I'm wondering if it has something to do with Dell computers. Like someone said earlier, I don't think it's a hardware issue b/c it doesn't happen with Windows Media Player. Anyway, if you want to import your CD's to iTunes you can rip them using Media Player (in WMA format), then import these files to iTunes. This should work for the meantime until someone figures out why our iTunes keeps freezing!

ITunes Freezing after 10.5.5 update.

After running the OS X software update seeded today, iTunes is freezing whenever I am on the iTunes store. I cannot force quit and I also lose control of the mouse after a couple of minutes. I have to force a restart by holding the power button down for several seconds. It has happened 4 times and now I am afraid of going to the online store. Anyone experiencing this problem? I am using iTunes 8.0 BTW. This is the first time I have had to force restart my computer or had iTunes freeze on me.
How do I fix this?
<Edited by Moderator>

I looked on an older discussion regarding this problem (10.53 and itunes 7.xx-8) see discusssion
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1538111&tstart=0
go to System Preferences, Network, Advanced, Proxies. Then get rid of the PAC setting by setting to manual and leaving the fields blank.
This worked for me, though I previously have never had a problem in two years of owning this Mac.
Obviously this is a known bug which appears to have re-surfaced.
