Thank You for the reply but my issue was not in the attachment you sent.
iTunes freezes when I attempt to add music to my ipod classic especially playlists I have made.
iTunes recognizes my ipod but when I "add" that when the issue starts.
I have my large library on a pc using windows 7. I have no issue adding music to my device on
my macbook pro but like I said, my 60,000 song plus library is on my pc.
Any additional help would be greatly appreciated.
Happy Holidays,

  • Itunes Crashed when uploading library To Classic IPOD

    Not too sure if anyone else is having this problem.But i have updated the itunes and ipod software, and have reset it and also restored it numerous times.
    But every time i connect my ipod and either manually sync my music or whether it does it automatically it will get to around 150 songs and then will crash and will sometimes get different errors.
    Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this or even better some possible fixes?
    Cheers

  • My Itunes freezes when I plug in my ipod and wont verify or sync

    My Itunes freezes every time I try to plug in my ipod classic. It wont verify my ipod so it can't sync or update it. I have to shut down and restart my computer to get it to function at all. I have had my ipod for awhile and have had no problems with it and my Iphone connects and syncs just fine. My Itunes is up dated with the latest version and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. I have reset my ipod multiple times. I can't even restore my ipod because it freezes so fast I cant get the restore started. Someone PLEASE HELP!!

    I'd suggest you post your question on the iTunes for Windows forum. This forum is meant for getting Windows to run on a Mac.

  • Itunes freezes when I connect my 80G Ipod Classic

    This has been happening for a while now, and I couldn't figure it out so I just stopped using my Ipod. I can still listen to the music on there, but its getting old and I want to put new stuff on it. But thats when the problem occurs.
    I plug in my Ipod using a standard cable to the USB ports. First I get a messagr from windows asking me if I want to scan and fix any errors with the Ipod. This nevver does anything, and it just sits there infinitely so I always hit no. At this point, Itunes is opening. It opens, I can see the main screen, but By now it is already frozen. When I click on it, I verify this. It turns white and doesn't do anything. EVER. FOREVER. (I have also downloaded another program as an alternative to Itunes to see if it will work, but it does the same thing. Freezes.) So I know its not Itunes. The ipod on the other hand shows what it normally shows. That it is connected and to eject before disconnecting etc....As soon as I unplug my ipod, everything unfreezes and I'm looking at my Itunes home.
    I read somehwere that Podcasts might be causing this, and it said that I have to delete all Podcasts in order to fix this. I REALLY want to try this, but I can't possibly delete the god forsaken podcasts off without the use of Itunes.
    Also, I really really don't want to restore the Ipod, Because theres a **** Ton of music on here that I put from my Old PC that I no longer have anymore. So if anyone knows a solution that doesn't involve doing that, that would be top priority. If I do need to do that, POST AWAY. I'm starting to get desperate anyway...
    Thanks in advance, and hopefully someone else has resolved this issue. I am standing by to provide ANY more info that you need from me.
    IPod Classic 80GB
    Itunes Version 10.6.1.7

    I would suggest that when you are adding music to your iPod,
    Connect to USB 2.0 port at the back of the PC and dont use any USB hub.
    Disconnect all other USB devices
    Preferably disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus program
    If you do a Disk Diagnostic on your iPod, there would be high numbers on the Realloc and Pending Sectors, which is causing the sync failures and Itunes freeze. The excellent post by tt2 will help you understand your problem.
    Have a nice day!

  • Itunes freezes when i connect my 160gb ipod classic

    Hi. I have a 160gb ipod classic. Tonight i tried to put some new songs onto my ipod. Everything was fine but when i took it out, all of my music had been deleted. Now when i plug my ipod into the computer itunes freezes straightaway and i can't do anything. This is the first time it happened and i have the newest version of itunes.
    Help!!

    seem like the iPod filesystem is corrupted.
    Do the iPod Diskdiagnostic as posted by tt2, it wont fix your problem but help in troubleshooting.
    Have a nice day!

  • Itunes freezes when I plug in my Ipod Touch - what should I do?

    I know that this has been asked numerous times, but I haven't found a solution yet. The basics:
    It was working fine yesterday, but when i plug in my ipod, itunes won't recognize it and it will freeze until I remove the ipod.
    My 3rd gen ipod touch, when I try to access my music and videos (my photos are still there), just goes to a white screen.
    After going to settings and about in my ipod, next to music and videos, it just says loading and won't do anything else.
    I've reinstalled itunes and it has the latest update.
    I've restarted my ipod many times.
    I don't know what else to do. Everything else runs fine, the apps and internet connectivity is all great. Can someone please help me? This has been an absolutely terrible month and my ipod crashing is the icing on the cake from ****.

  • ITunes freezes when I connect iPad or iPod

    Whenever I connect my iPod classic or iPad, iTunes freezes and I have to force quit.
    This happened in the previous OS and this one, and with all iTunes versions.
    I'm on a 2006 iMac, upgraded to 10.7 from 10.6.8. I'm up to date on iTunes.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    have a look at
    http://brainiac4.blogspot.com/2006/11/ipod-100-cpu-utilization-problem.html
    might be the answer to your problem as it was to mine.
    "The problem, as it turned out, is all about drive letters. It seems that iPods do not like to share their drive letter with other devices, even if said devices are not connected.
    If you're having this problem, try what worked for me:
    With the iPod connected (and CPU at 100%, of course)
    Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management
    Select the iPod and choose a different letter. "

  • ITunes Freezes When I Start To Sync iPod

    Every time I plug in my ipod, itunes opens up and my ipod starts to sync. After a few seconds itunes completely freezes up. My ipod changes to connected and i have to use task manager to close itunes. After i do this I try to "safley remove hardware" but it says my ipod is still being used. I go back to task manager but itunes isnt open. The only thing i can do now is just unplug my ipod. After my ipod gets to the home screen, it has all the music it had before the sync. I just want my new music on my ipod and i have no idea wats wrong!!! Please help me!!!!!!

    I have the same issue and I too have Windows Vista (32 bit, how about you?). My itunes works on my laptop until I plug in my ipod. The second my laptop recognizes it, my itunes freezes. My ipod (mini) says that it's connected though. When I try to disconnect my ipod, it says that it's still being used but Itunes isn't open according to the task manager. The only way to "safely" unplug my ipod is to turn off my laptop and the ipod's screen no longer says "do not disconnect". I can't add or take off anything from my ipod now.

  • Why is my itunes freezing when i plug in my ipod

    I have one of the newer ipod touches and when I tried to put the newest update on it, everything went wrong. The newest update is on it, however, everytime I plug it into my computer itunes freezes. Ive tried everything that apple has told me to do.

    Try the following (these are separate suggestions):
    Restart the computer.
    Reset the iPod using the two button combo.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
    If those actions do not help, try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    then connecting to computer. If iTunes can now access the iPod without freezing, you should use Restore to erase the iPod and initialize the iPod's software. Then you can set it up and re-sync your songs.

  • ITunes freezes when adding songs

    I upgraded iTunes to 6.0.1.whatever and now i can't do anything. When I try to add files or folders to my library iTunes freezes and i have to shut it down. Along with this it will no longer recognize or find any of my songs that I was recently (before upgrading) able to play that are located on my external hard drive. I can only play songs that are on my local disk. Can anyone help????

  • IPod and iTunes freeze when I connect my 80gb iPod Classic

    Ok so I've had the 80gb Classic since August 08 and I recently got a new PC (Installed drivers recently, good spec). When I connect my iPod it freezes, so does iTunes and so does My Computer. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, downloaded latest update, reset iPod, updated drivers.
    When I disconnect it says it needs to be reformatted and sometimes it offers me this option when I connect without iTunes open, but then I press OK and it crashes. How can I reformat it easily?
    Don't care about loosing files on my iPod.

    I had an issue once where iTunes wouldn't see the iPod, and the iPod would act like its trying to connect but would never complete (On a Windows Based PC).
    The only way I got around that issue with my 80GB Video iPod was to do a reset on the iPod (menu and center for a few seconds until it rebooted). After that the device was good and would sync fine.
    However, if your device is saying otherwise like the format option then I'd be concerned... And I would recommend doing a restore first before a format... Try the reset, and connect.... If you are concerned once you get it syncronized then do the restore option through iTunes!

  • ITunes freezes when I try to sync iPod

    I have a 80GB iPod Classic and I just recently switched from a PC to Mac. Ever since the switch I haven't been able to sync with my iTunes library. I plug the iPod in, it recognizes it, begins syncing, and after 50 or so songs everything freezes. At this point all I can do is unplug the iPod (which I know is bad for it, but I have no other option - I've tried waiting several hours and it doesn't unfreeze).
    During one of my attempts, I was able to update my iPod software and re-format it to Mac, so I know that is not the problem. I have tried resetting my iPod as well.
    Thanks in advance

    I have always had this iPod with Mac, but having the same exact problem. It seems others are too, but nobody has any suggestions. Apple doesn't seem to offer any updates or patches even though i've reported this problem at least 20 times. Guess we're screwed.

  • ITunes freezes when adding artwork

    every so often when I'm adding albumart to iTunes my cursor freezes on the box in the bottom right corner, with no easy way to get it unstuck  (looks like this - http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg155/Mo-Dilla/frozen.png). I have to quit/restart in order to fix it. Please help this glitch is making it very frustrating to update my music.

    I thought this was a problem until today. I added artwork to a mp4 file and it froze as expected. Rather than ending the process with a force quit, I browsed a web site. In about 4 minutes, the artwork was added and itunes was no longer froze. I don't know why it happens, but I suggest that you leave itunes alone for 10 minutes or so and see if the artwork gets added eventually. This may work differently on a mac than on windows, but hopefully not.
