Itunes hangs on disconnect / reconnect of internet connection

Quite often I do stream internet radio stations using Itunes. I am listening through my BeoCenter2. When I swich of the BeoCenter2, I often forget to
stop the stream in Itunes. This would not a problem, but because my internet provider drops the connection every night for one second.
This disconnect / reconnect is not handled by Itunes correctely. From this moment on Itunes is frozen and hangs. Itunes has to be killed.
Any advice? Or is there a bug fix on the way?

Hi,
Thanks for that - good advice I'll file a report.
I've just switched to streaming music this way after struggling for many years with a Logitech Duet.  When it worked  it was brilliant, but very flaky at times.  Naively I thought I would switch to something totally reliable and sorted.  To be fair the remote app works brilliantly on iphone and no problem with streaming my music collection - just that, like you, I stream radio feeds too.   I cannot believe others don't have the same problem too.  My internet connection drops out several times a day, which I'm pursuing as well.
If/when I make progress I'll post it.

    iTunes RADIO is not working.
    “iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
    iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
    Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio.  People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
    Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
    Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
    Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
    Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
    Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
    Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.
    ===============================================================
    NOTE:  no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
    Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.
    Apple store id It works via direct internet connetion but not through iTunes.  Very strange.

  • I am not able to access the "Settings" on my iPad 3. I just get a gray screen for about 30 seconds and then the app shuts down. I am also unable to access the App store, iTunes, or any app requiring an internet connection. Any thoughts?

    I am not able to access the "Settings" on my iPad 3. I just get a gray screen for about 30 seconds and then the app shuts down. I am also unable to access the App store, iTunes, or any app requiring an internet connection. Any thoughts?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Is there a way that I can control iTunes with the iPhone without any internet connections?

    First let me say that I am ready to throw this POS in the lake.  Is there a way that I can control iTunes with my iPhone without any internet connections?  On my houseboat I have a wifi router and want to connect my phone to my computer to control my music which plays from my computer through my stereo.  I can easily do it with my laptop without having to jump through any internet APPLE BS , but I dont want to have my laptop out on the deck. I just want to use the phone as a remote control.
    Remote wont do it because it keeps saying Im not connected to the internet, even though is is connected to my computer.  Same problem with JumiAmp.

    It should have an option to manage iTunes library without network connection, like Bluetooth or connect directly to the computer without a router or wi-fi, i live outsite of the city and i dont have the ability to control my iTunes librry from the iphone

  • Why does Firefox keep hanging, crashing, sulking, dying when internet connection behaves?

    Why does Firefox keep hanging, crashing, sulking, dying when internet connection behaves? Once it renders the page it should forget about the page. Why does it behave when some link is clicked when there is no internet? It should just say internet not available or some crap. Why die, sulk, crash?? I don't get it! 3 series was much much much better!

    I should add, I've re-downloaded Firefox, but that doesn't look like it has helped any. Still get seemingly inexplicable crashes.

    I just bought a ipod touch. I am unable to use it because itunes tells me I have no internet connection (unknown error 306). I have tried all the suggestions I can find, including checking the firewall, the no proxy server is checked, resetting cache on itunes, I even scanned the computer with Registry Easy but nothing worked.  I use Mozilla Firefox and have a PC with Windows 7. Obviously, buying a ipod and being unable to use it for 3 days (and counting) because I am unable to register it, is pretty frustrating. Can anyone help?

    Did you try all of this:
    iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
    Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
    To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
    To reset iTunes Store cache:
    In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
    Click the Advanced tab.
    Click the "Reset cache" button.
    Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
    Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
    Open iTunes.
    Access iTunes preferences:
    On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
    On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Parental Controls tab.
    Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.

    I couldnt connect to iTunes, why is this? The Internet connection is ok.

    Mine too! I have the same problem! I bought iPad 2, 16gb, wifi only, from an apple store in NYC and I deal exactly the same problem when I try to report an app (because doesn't launch). The message I got from iTunes store is that I can not connect with it. If someone has an idea why this is happening.. I am connected to the internet and I have no other connectivity problems. My country has no connectivity issues according to the above site.
    Thanks:)

  • HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809 continues to disconnect my wireless internet connection

    My router is a Netgear WNDR3400 v2
    My Desktop is running Windows XP Pro
    My laptop is running Windows 7 Home
    Ever since I turned on the wireless function of the printer, I intermittently lose my internet connection, both wired(ethernet) and wireless.  Do I need to change the IP Address Configuration to Manual IP and enter a static address like 192.168.1.50?
    The printer works fine when connected, but, I can't figure out why I have always reboot the router to get reconnected.
    I would appreciate any help

    Hi Ciara, I had to remove one of the printheads on the right side in order to clean it manualy. After running 2 cycles of printhead cleaning, the print quality diagnostic page was still showing streaks.....in fact, the streaks were getting worse. The carriage wouldn't move the way it was supposed to (according to the manual) so I had to access them from the right side. This is probably when the belt broke. I found the other half of the belt. My brother-in-law told me that the hook and belt assembly are there to hold up the wires while the carriage moves. I can see now how the wires cause the carriage not to move. My printer needs a new belt for this assembly, and/or I need a photo as to how the assembly is supposed to look when the belt is intact. I might be able to rig up something with a twist-tie or some other strap, but I need to see how to wrap it around the wires and hook so that the hook moves freely, holding up the wires so that they don't catch on the back of the carriage when it starts to move toward the left.

  • I cannot connect to itunes store or safari but my internet connection is working, why is this?

    My internet connection is working, however, I cannot connect to itunes store, safari or updates on my MacBook when connected to my home wi fi. I can do so if I connect to another wi fi account, e.g. at work.  Also I can connect to safari and itunes store using my home wi fi if I use my ipad or iphone.  I have tried to re-authorize the Mac Book in case that is the issue but I cannot beacuse safari and itunes store not working.  My internet provider say they do not know what the problem is.

  • Is iTunes 11.1 buggy on a PC? Ever since I upgraded, I can't log into the iTunes store and iTunes says that I have no internet connection.

    Ever since I upgraded because of iOS7 on my iPhone, now my iTunes no longer can connect to the internet and my Home Sharing has been cut. Is anyone else having these issues?  I tried the "DNS Flush" trick but itunes still won't budge.

    Yes, after updating to iTunes 11.1.0,126 no Internet was available any longer on WLAN nor LAN interfaces (Windows 8 64bit version). WLAN interface still has connection to the router (on low level) but on higher protocol level no connectivity exist).
    There exist a thread for Windows 7 from 2010 with the same issue describing how to solve the problem.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/12622179#12622179
    Just follow the procedure, hence go to the "device manager", look for neworkadaper and de-install LAN and WLAN drivers. Reboot the PC/Laptop and Windows will install the driver(s) again and at the same time repair the mess produced by Apple.
    This issue occured only on one of our family Laptop but not on a 2nd. Laptob nor PC.

    My N9 losses account setting (user/password) when ever it losses internet connection.
    please help me remedy this problem.
    Thanks!

    Mine forgot all my passwords few days back, I re-installed firmware using Nokia software updater. I didn't charge immediately after phone battery went dead, when I charged it phone wouldn't connect to any of online services. First try 'Restore settings' under settings > Reset. Go for firmware re-install if that didn't work. Good luck.

  • ITunes hangs "not responding" when nano 5g connected to PC

    Hi,
    Just bought my wife a Nano 5g for her birthday to replace her old broken 2nd gen version.
    Plugged it in, iTunes fired up as usual, except it complained that v9 is needed.
    V9 downloaded and installed, but hangs when ipod connected, task manager shows as "not responding"
    I've tried: uninstalling and reinstalling itunes; Changing usb cables and usb port; Also tried on another PC.
    Same thing happens.
    Is this a dud ipod? What are my options?
    Been an ipod user for years and have always hated itunes as a piece of software and this could well be the final straw.
    Help needed please.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    I have used the nano on XP Home and Vista with no problems. So I would keep looking for a solution on your home system. If you are running service pack 3 and all the latest updates for iTunes and the firmware for you nano, you should be good.
    You might start thinking about things that are on your home system that are not on the system at work. Maybe anti virus software, etc. that kind of thing. I don't know anything specific regarding anti virus software, just using that as an example that might play into it.
    My system running XP home has avast anti virus, steam and a bunch of games installed. I also have some Logitech drivers installed for their keyboards, mice, etc. but that is really it.
