ITunes freezes up on movie tab when device is connected to computer

whenever i choose the movie tab on itunes (with either my 1st gen iPod Touch and my iPhone 3G connected to my computer), the program freezes up!
any help?
i am using iTunes Ver. 10.6.3.25.

Thanks. I realized that the music did transfer to my iphone, the problem was it didn't show up when I tried to download from my iphone to my laptop. I had to re-download the music from the cloud to get it onto my laptop.

    You don't use iTunes to import photos in your camera roll. Read here:

    Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
    P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal.

    Check the iPod Hardisk, with DiskDiagnostic as posted here by tt2
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17776595#17776595
    It wont fix your problem, but help us both, in troubleshooting, and reducing frivolous suggestions.
    If your report says high Realloc or Pending Sector, then it's time to have your hardisk replaced.
    Have a nice day!

  • Itunes freezes on the last step when i try to sync my iphone. There is no error message.

    Every time I try to sync my phone itunes freezes on step 6 when its copying the new info to my phone.I have tried deleting and redownloading itunes and I tried to restore my phone but it keeps telling me the session has timed out. I am in the process of getting a new antivirus to see if that is the problem eventhough I doubt it is. Please help I dont know what else to do.

    That would work fine, but my device does not show up on my itunes..
    I've tried everything

  • ITunes freezes on my macbook pro when i sync my iphone

    Hi guys --
    I've been following tons of threads to get an answer - can you help?
    Out of nowhere, my iPhone can't sync with iTunes - whenever I plug in my iPhone, iTunes freezes, and I get the rainbow beachball. After a bit, I get a message that my computer is set not to allow synching -- do I want to allow synching? I select yes, and then I'm told this isn't allowed. When I select override, it's still not allowed.
    Here's my specs:
    MacBook Pro (2011, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7), running OS X 10.9.4
    iTunes 11.3.1
    iPhone 5S, running iOS 7.1.2
    Here's what I've done:
    - repaired disc permissions, and restarted the computer (nothing changed.)
    - followed every suggestion here (iTunes: May become unresponsive when connecting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch) -- including installing updates to both OSs and iTunes, disabled sync (and iTunes STILL freezes), deleted every podcast I had from both my iPhone and laptop, and rebuilt my iTunes library following the instructions that they gave.
    The only other thing I can think to do is to start a new user on this laptop, copy over my music (which is all backed up to an external hard drive, so no biggie - just annoying), and/or reformat my iphone or this computer. Would REALLY love not to do that. Any other suggestions or ideas?

    Hi there,
    I have the same issue as you do, this has been going on for quite a while now (2 months) and I have tried everything, including creating a new user - did not work. Perhaps you might have better luck than I did.
    I really don't understand how this can just start happening for no reason.
    If you have any luck I would be keen to hear how you fixed the problem.
    Good luck!

  • ITunes freezes and doesn't respond when connecting iPhone 4

    Well yesterday I had the two of the most common problems that a lot of people seem to be having with iTunes after the latest update- opening iTunes and not getting my iPhone 4 to be recognized. I solved the iTunes problem last night and iPhone is now being recognized on my computer but when I connect it to my computer iTunes automatically freezes and stops responding. When I disconnect it and restart iTunes it responds again and runs smoothly like nothing happened.
    When it freezes beside "iTunes Store" it says "iPhone" and it seems like it freezes while it's trying to sync my phone. I've tried restarting my computer, leaving it connected before starting iTunes, waiting until iTunes comes up to connect it, but whatever I do iTunes just won't work with my iPhone connected. Any ideas on how to fix this?

  • ITunes freezes for 60-120 secs when connecting iPod

    This is weird. I have iTunes 7.6.1 and OS X 10.5.2.
    Whenever I connect an iPod (my wife and I have three between us), iTunes freezes with the spinning beachball for anywhere from 60 to 120 seconds, sometimes longer. At times, when I try to drag a podcast or something over to an iPod, it won't "take"--it's not on the iPod in any of the menus. If I try to do a sync of all podcasts, for example, it freezes completely and even trying to force quit won't do anything.
    I've deleted the plist files, but no luck. Any ideas?

    It sounds like a hardware problem is messing with iTunes communicating with the iPod. I'd suggest the easy stuff first. Switch USB ports, switch USB cables, reset your iPod. If you are connecting via a USB hub try connecting directly to a USB port on the computer. If the iPod is still in warranty you can take it to the Apple Store or call Apple Care.

  • ITunes 5 looks for movie data when updating iPod...

    I'm experiencing a very annoying problem in iTunes 5. When I plug in my iPod (4G) the songs are updated as they should, but then a message pops up saying something like this:
    "Searching for movie data in movie archive "the name of the archive"
    Then it says:
    "The archive couldn't be found. Movie can't be played without the right archive"
    And then you'll have to click "search" or "cancel". That is very annoying.
    Why is iTunes suddenly searching for movies to play, when I'm updating my iPod?
    How can I make it stop?

  • Itunes freezes at "finding purchased items" when syncing itouch!?!!?

    So I bought an Ipod touch 3rd generation from my friend about 4 months ago. it was working fine and syncing with itunes perfectly. then, about 2 months ago i updated my itunes to itunes 10.2.2 and that was a total mistake. i would open itunes and it would run slow, then when i tried syncing my ipod it would always freeze at "finding purchased items" and i had to force quit every time. i figured i would just wait for another update. now, a couple months later, ive updated to itunes 10.3.1, in high hopes that it would work. but still, nothing. it continues to freeze at "finding purchased items" I've tried to sync my old Ipod nano to the same itunes library and it worked fine! it's just not working with my itouch!!!
    Ive read up on it and done all of the following:
    Deleted ibooks
    Sync from back up
    Reinstall itunes
    Restore itunes
    Made a new library
    Turned off home sharing
    Manually synced music
    Unsubscribed to podcasts
    Allow it to attempt to sync overnight
    And many more things!!!!!
    And just now i tried syncing it again and now it began freezing at step 2:preparing to sync!
    the ONLY conclusion that i can come to is authorizing my computer. Since i bought the ipod off of my friend we decided to share an itunes account so that i could purchase stuff using her itunes account. since i got the ipod i HAVE made many purchases using her account. but when i tried authorizing my computer to her account it says something like "this account can only be authoorized to 5 computers" the problem is, i really need it to sync to more than 5!?
    This has been going on for too long and now its getting extremely frustrating for me. I am a teen and I would love to listen to the newest music! so this is a real problem for me. Someone, PLEASE HELP!!!!! AND FAST!!!!!!!!!!
    -Ipod touch 3rd Gen
    -Windows
    Screenshot of how it froze just now.....

    i just found out how to deauthorize all computers. i deauthorized them and am re-syncing the ipod now-hope it works!

  • Itunes freezes when ipod is connected to computer

    Whenever I try to connect my ipod to my laptop my itunes will freeze up. I try opening my ipod using "my computer" but then that will freeze up as well. I'm trying to restore my ipod to see if that will help, but since my itunes freezes, it can't detect my ipod, therefore I can't restore it.
    My ipod is set to where I have to manually put songs on it instead of it syncing automatically (unsure if this has anything to do with the problem?)
    My itunes and ipod work perfectly by themselves, and I haven't had a problem with connecting my ipod to the computer until now. I can't figure out how to fix the problem. Help!
    (I've also plugged my ipod into every usb port on the computer and it doesn't make a difference).

    so does mine

  • ITunes freezes (but doesn't crash) while iPhone is connected

    Hello all.
    Connecting my iPhone 4 to my computer immediately freezes iTunes. As soon as I unplug it, iTunes starts working again. I have iOS 4.3 and iTunes 10.2.1.1. I've tried drastic measures to fix the issue with no success:
    -Fully reinstalled iTunes multiple times
    -Deleted all media from my library (including music, photos, movies, podcasts, etc)
    -Deauthorized/Authorized computer
    -Disabled all non-iPhone services & startup items per apple's support site
    -Created a new Win7 user
    -Tried different usb cables/ports
    -Deleted all settings/files/etc from iPhone
    -Restored iOS software multiple times
    It baffles my mind that a freshly wiped iPhone plugged into a freshly installed iTunes with no media has these serious issues. What else can I do (short of reinstalling Win7, which I probably will try later)?
    A few more details:
    -The phone connects just fine to my macbook.
    -This issue started after an Amazon MP3 import went bad. I'm not sure if this is the cause, though. It worked fine for six months before this.
    -iTunes recognized the iPhone a few times during the troubleshooting process (for example, directly after a fresh iTunes install (but not after every fresh iTunes install)). If it ever recognized it, I could sync media just fine. But as soon as I unplugged and re-plugged the iPhone, the issue reappeared.
    I'd appreciate any help.
    Thank you
    Richard

    I just found an email address: [email protected]
    I sent an email to it. Although based on the automated response I think this is an email address for developers to use. I can't find a proper way to report a bug. Anyway this is what I sent. I'll let you know if I get a response, but I won't hold my breath!
    Hi Apple,
    I've no idea if this is the right way to report a bug, but no one at Apple seems to read the forums.
    Loads of people have a sync problem with the latest iTunes and Windows 7 x64, although it does appear to be affecting some Mac users as well.
    See this thread: http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2046610&tstart=28
    And this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1825333&start=0&tstart=0
    And this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=13233907#13233907
    And more threads!
    iTunes completely freezes the second any IOS device is connected, and unfreezes as soon as it is disconnected. This makes syncing impossible and renders the device useless as a media player.
    Is anyone working on this? It would be nice if Apple staff occasionally gave some input in the forums so we know if a bug is known to you or not.
    Thanks for your help.

  • 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.

  • ITunes freezes every time iPhone (2.0 software) is connected!

    I just recently updated iTunes to 7.7 and then updated my original iPhone to 2.0 software. Since the update to 2.0, iTunes on my laptop (Windows Vista) keeps freezing and "not responding". iTunes appears to work okay when the phone is not connected.
    I performed the diagnostics through iTunes and everything passed except the iPhone/iTunes sync test (failed). I cannot find any information on how to fix this problem. I have reinstalled iTunes several times in hopes that the problem would be fixed, but to no avail. Please help!
    Note: iPhone/iTunes sync works fine on my desktop with XP Prof even after the update.
    Thank you!

    Current configuration:
    Original iPhone - 2.0 update
    iTunes - 7.7 update

    I have the same problem. Itunes freezes whenever I plug my iPhone 3g in. I can plug the iPhone into anybody else's itunes, and it's fine, but not my one. Under diagnostics, I get a Sync error (with no details of course, thanks Apple), and Windows can see it as a camera as ususal.
    Deleting the iTunes library clears it up, but it's a pain, and you have to reconstruct your library, transfer your purchases over etc. It's now frozen twice, and I'm rebuilding my library for the third time. Very frustrating. I hope Apple fixes this issue with the next Itunes update.
