ITunes getting stuck on iPod screen
Basically, whenever I connect my iPod to my computer, iTunes opens but then gets stuck on this screen:
I can click off to Music or Films or a playlist or something, but I can't for the life of me get my iPod to do anything.
Does anyone have any form of solution to this? I don't want to reinstall iTunes because that tends to cause a whole heap of problems. I'm running Windows 7, 64 bit and my iPod is a white 4G with iOS 5.1.1
Thanks!

Open iTunes and Connect the iPod to your Mac
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time
After 10 Seconds release the Sleep/Wake Button until iTunes tells you it has Detected an iPod in Recovery Mode...
The Phone Screen will remain Black... Now Restore.

I starrteaudio reader and mi phone wont start it just gets stuck on lock screen and is slow
Hey tessatony,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPhone 4s is not functioning properly, and that you wish to try to make a backup before troubleshooting. From the information you have provided, it sounds like the device is indeed turning on and responding when plugged in, however the display is not lighting up. Have you attempted to plug the iPhone into a computer with iTunes? If iTunes recognizes the phone, you can attempt to back it up:

Afterwards, attempt to restart and/or reset the phone:

If your issue persists, your iPhone may need to be serviced. The following link should help you get started with the process. Included, you will find information on topics such as warranty, service pricing, and express replacement service.

My iphone 5 get stuck in locked screen when two or more missed calls or messages shown on locked screen list
Hi bhagath1339,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
The first troubleshooting steps I would recommend in this situation would be restarting and if the issue continues, resetting the iPhone.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue continues after restarting and resetting, it may be necessary to restore your iPhone to isolate software versus hardware. Please follow the attached article if you need assistance restoring the device.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

When I try to update to iOS5, iTunes gets stuck on "Backing Up" its been there for hours and it barely moves. It finished backing up one then it went to a "Extracting Software" on the iTunes status bar up top and then it gave me an error saying something along the lines of "There was an error with the server" and back to square 1. Ive been trying since the morning and same problem. Always stuck on the backup, help?
You may have lost your connection to the apple server or connection with your itunes library.
1) You will need to shutdown Itunes and disconnect your iphone from the USB cable.
2) Reconnect your Iphone to the usb cable, wait for the device to be recognised and or drivers to be installed.
3) once all ok, your itunes should automatically open up/connect (if you have this setting set on), otherwise double click your itunes icon on your desktop.
4) once all sychronised and connected. go to Summary tab and UPDATE your iphone again.
Hope this works for you, as this happend to me and tried the above steps and wala!!! all good.
If the above still fails, restart your pc/apple and turn off/on your modem and then try again.
this normally happens if your connection from your device to the itunes hangs or looses its connection, or have a bad connection to the internet / apple server.
in windows the RPC Locator is normally the cause of this, in apple i have no idea (as im not an apply user).
Give it a shot!
if this helps you and works ...why not rep/like my response up! -
Everything is updated!! iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro... All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices. iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time! What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
Why does iTunes SUCK??
1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
Please tell me I am not the only one!!
...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
Very appreciated,

Just got imac love it but have an issue with itunes gets stuck "waiting to copy" do I really need to return phone to orginal setting?
Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected. -
ITunes gets stuck at the end of songs
I just switched from a Powerbook G4 to a MacBook.
iTunes worked fine on the G4, but on my MacBook running 10.4.8, iTunes 7.0.2 has a problem:
About every 10 or 20 songs, iTunes gets stuck one second before the end of the song (or podcast or video podcast). I need to manually Pause it and Play it again and all is fine until it gets stuck again down the line.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.8) iTunes 7.0.2Presnently experiencing this 'last second' glitch downlaoding songs from a CD. The first CD transferred okay. The second CD will not import beyond the last second of any – first, second, middle, last – selected song. FORCE QUIT , eject CD, and reinserting the CD does not change the issue.

HP CP4025 getting stuck on loading screen
I have an HP CP4025 Color Laserjet printer and when i try starting it up it will get stuck on the screen with the following info on it:
6/6 (On the Left Side)
HP Animated Icon
A/F (On the Right Side)
The 3 lights right below it blink in order from left to right.
I suspect it is a firmware issue but i have no way of loading new firmware from the website since the computer it is USB connected to cannot recognize it as being connected. I have tried googling this problem but cannot find anything even close to what might be causing this issue or how to resolve it. Thank you for your time and any help would be very appreciated.Did you ever figure this out? I'm having this issue also!

when syncing ipad2 to my PC iTunes gets stuck at step 7 of 7 with "waiting for items to copy" - does anyone you know why? The rest of the sync seems okay
i don't know why it happens. but i know how frustrating it can be. the same thing happened to me. i posted a few inquiries in different apple forums and didn't get any ideas of how to fix it. i did however find a solution on my own.
i found that if i did a "restore my ipad" that it fixed it. i was hesitant at first because i was afraid of loosing valuable information. but much to my relief i didn't loose any thing. other than an hour of my time.
this seemed to fixed my problem of being stuck on "waiting for items to copy". my ipad now syncs both wired and wirelessly without any hang ups. however i would suggest that if you are syncing a large amount of data (movies for example) that you do it wired and not wirelessly. i found that it takes a lot longer to sync movies wirelessly.
good luck
