ITunes in Grid mode crushingly slow in Mavericks

I'm encountering some serious beach balls with iTunes in Grid mode - it's crushingly slow in Mavericks. Anyone else?
MacBook Pro 2.66
Library on external firewire drives
iTunes 11.1.2

Bump.
One more time around.

  • MBP - OSX 10.9.2 - running crushingly slow with other symptoms.

    My MBP is crushingly slow.  I have also had some graphics issues and other strange issues like mission control not working properly, or app icons not displaying in launchpad.  Memory used in activity monitor is always hovering around 7.98 GB out of 8GB... so that's obviously part of the problem.... but as I write this the only apps I have opened are: Activity Monitor and Safari.... and it's currently running 7.99GB.
    Under activity monitor this item is consistantly red and non responsive "com.apple.photostream-agent.ImageConversionService (not responding)".  In the past I have noticed other items non-responsive items in Activity Monitor.
    Attempted solutions:  I made a couple different admin users to test out if it was something with a particular account.  But all accounts had the same symptoms.  I did a clean install just a couple days ago and used migration assistant to bring over only data related to my user... ie... photos, music, emails, documents, etc.  I did not re-install any applications other than a few mac app store purchases, like aperature, pages, keynote, numbers.  No 3rd party apps. (up until 5 minutes ago when I installed dropbox... but the problem was there prior to installing this app.)
    Any help would be super appreciated.  Thank you.

    Please don't post "etrecheck" output in a reply to me. I have no use for it.
    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test will take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Itunes keeps crashing after opening in OSX Maverick

    Running OSX Maverick iTunes keeps crashing as soon as I launch it,
    I'am getting an error crash occurs when using coreKE plug in.
    any help most welcome.
    focus48

    Hello there, focus48.
    First place to start is to isolate the issue. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps to try:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3430
    There are several ways in which an add-on can cause iTunes to act erratically, such as those listed below:
    - Loss of iTunes functionality, such as the Visualizer.
    - Distortion or irregularity in the iTunes interface.
    - Slow performance.
    - iTunes won't open or quits unexpectedly.
    - You see an alert while syncing stating "... cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified."
    If you notice any of the above symptoms or other unusual behavior, you can disable any plug-ins not manufactured by Apple by opening iTunes in Safe Mode. This is done by holding down the Option and Command keys (on Mac OS X) or holding down the Shift and Control keys (on Windows) while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see the following dialog before iTunes finishes starting up:
    "iTunes is running in Safe Mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been temporarily disabled."
    If the issue persists, then isolating further by testing in another user account is in order:
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4053
    Symptoms
    When isolating issues and/or troubleshooting software issues in OS X, you might want to use a different user account. Learn how to use this technique to narrow down the cause of an issue.
    Resolution
    The issue at hand may simply be caused by a bad preference setting or user-specific data file. With proper isolation, you can avoid time-consuming and inappropriate troubleshooting methods.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro

  • Early 2009 Mac Mini slow with Mavericks

    I bought an early 2009 Mac Mini, and it was really slow with Maverick 10.9.1 installed. I proceed to upgrade the ram to 8GB and replaced the Hard Drive with a WD 500GB Blue Drive. The system is still pegging the CPU to 98%. I am posting 2 EtreChecks.

    yes, thank you. Insufficient disk space is not the cause of the slowdown. Depending upon which apps you typically run, you might benefit from upgrading its RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB — but whether that upgrade would help depends upon other factors.
    If you boot into Safe mode, log in, and immediately restart into normal mode, is your MacBook Pro still painfully slow? If it is, download and install EtreCheck, and please include in your reply a copy of the output generated by a run of EtreCheck.

  • How do I set my secondary monitor to automatically default to grid mode?

    I'm using Lightroom 3.2 and everytime I open the app to either import photos or work on the ones I already have imported it defaults to grid mode on primary monitor and full mode on my secondary.
    Is there a way to tell Lightroom to do the opposite. Have the secondary monitor default to grid mode and the main window default to full mode.  This would make it more intuitive and more efficient when switching between library and develope modes.
    Thanks
    Tim Gernert

    Please check "My Music Timer" app.
    "My Music Timer" can stop iPod touch or spotify playing music.

    Hey, my ipad is disabled and i cant open. i tried connecting it with itunes in recovery mode to restore it but it wont work it doesnt show and options itunes doesnt detect my ipad in recovery mode. what do i do know? please help!!!

    If you followed these instructions and you were unable to enter recovery mode, I'm still leaning toward a hardware problem.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.  It might help.

  • How do I transfer my iTunes library from an old, slow pc laptop to a newer faster pc laptop? Do I have to take a copy of my iTunes library on the hard drive of the old(er) pc laptop and load it onto the hard drive of my new(er) pc laptop?

    How do I transfer my iTunes library from an old, slow pc laptop to a new(er), faster pc laptop? Do I have to make a copy of the iTunes library on the old pc laptop and re-install it on the new(er) pc laptop? Is it something that can de done using the actual iPod itself?

    This is the method I would normally recommend:
    Backup with this User Tip, restore the library to the new computer using the same tool, keep the backup up-to-date in future. Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer need to access protected content on it.
    You can use your iPod classic to move your library to a new computer but if you don't already have a backup copy of the library (and your other important data) now is the time to think about it.

  • IPhone 4 (iOS 7.1.1) not recognized by iTunes 11.1.5 on Mac OSX Mavericks. Frustration Station.

    iPhone 4 (iOS 7.1.1) not recognized by iTunes 11.1.5 on Mac OSX Mavericks. Have tried all of the recommendations on the apple support site, I am running all current up to date versions of iTunes(11.1.5), Mac OSX(Mavericks), AND iOS 7.1.1 on my iPhone 4 and nothing has worked. Also tried doing some recommendation of deleting some ".plist" files in the preferences as I had seen on this support forum and my iPhone is still not recognized in iTunes at all. I plug my iPhone into my MacBook Pro and it makes the sound like it's connected and charging, but when I go "devices" in iTunes, it is all greyed out. I have had this iPhone since May 2011 and have synced it to this computer numerous times since then, with the last time being before I updated to Mavericks which was sometime in April. Not sure where to go from here, I've tried to delete iTunes and re-install, but when I try to drag the iTunes icon from "applcations", the system tells me I cannot do so as it is required by OSX. So, what gives?

    durrrrr. nevermind. re-installed itunes and it looks good for now.

  • HT4623 I trying to update my iPad using iTunes. After connecting to MacBook Pro where is installed all latest software iPad is recognised as iPad, Serial Number: n/a. iTunes run recovery mode, trying to restore iPad firmware, and in the end unknown error

    There was some updayts for my iPad 4 automatically downloaded. After installing it, the iPad began to restart itself every few minutes.

After connecting to MacBook Pro, where is installed all latest software, iPad is recognised as "iPad", Serial Number: n/a. iTunes run recovery mode, trying to restore iPad firmware, and in the end unknown error occured (3). Tried many times, not results. And now iPad stays only in recovery mode, can't switch it off.  How can I solve this problem please?

    When I restart my iPad the connect to iTunes comes up and stays on until it shuts down again, I have read a report from Apple support suggesting I reinstall iTunes so I might try that again and also your suggestion which i shall also try, but thanks again - rg1547

  • Editing pdf files in Preview painfully SLOW with mavericks! Why? How to fix?

    Editing pdf files in Preview is painfully SLOW with Mavericks! With mountain lion everything was so smooth .... Why? How can I fix this?

    I stopped using preview. Adobe Acrobat Pro is running fine ... this is not a solution to the problem though. The question remains open: why is preview not running as before?
    Why did I upgrade?!

  • Lightroom 5.2RC Screen Flicker in Library Grid Mode

    Hi,
    Having a screen flicker problem since 5.cRC came out, but only in Library/Grid mode when scrolling or selecting from the grid. But only when there are more images than can fit on one page in the grid.

    I've been having the exact same problem with Lightroom 5.2.  I also have an Nvidia card, a GeForce GT 610, and driver version 327.23.  One additional part of the problem is that I can hear almost constant disk access when in grid view mode in the library module.  That seems to be related to Lightroom refreshing the display as I scroll down through the images.  On newly imported images, it takes about two seconds for each thumbnail to just display the keyword symbol in the lower right corner.  After the first time scrolling through all the images, it goes a bit faster.  Even then, CPU usage goes up to 80% just by selecting a new group of files.
    It almost seems like something is making it take a long time to build each thumbnail and sync all the information that's associated with that thumbnail before it will let you do any other work with it.  I don't think it's really associated with the dislay driver.  I never had this problem with LR 4.4, it's just since I upgraded.  I also never had an ealier version of LR 5; I went right to 5.2 from 4.4.

  • Keeping a 2nd monitor in Grid mode

    Hello,
    I'm trying to keep a 2nd monitor locked into grid mode? For example when editing; monitor 1 is in Loupe mode, 2nd in Grid mode when I do a find the monitors will switch modes? So the 2nd goes from grid to loupe and the main monitor goes to grid mode.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Jeff

    I guess it's a bug.
    (In case you wonder about my setup: my second monitor is smaller and I prefer to use it for tool panels etc. It would also be ideal to carry the Lightroom grid view by default for quick navigation, while working on the individual images on the first monitor. Not too far-fetched a setup, I guess.)
    No it's by design. The grid on the second monitor is actually a vertically stretched version of the filmstrip. So, you can forget any ideas about being able to edit multiple images on the second monitor.
