ITunes keep on freezing after playing a podcast

Hi,
I recently downloaded the latest version of iTunes 64-bit (10.2.1.1) and after installing it the application stops working after playing a podcast video. The application stops responding and the only way to make it work again is to shut it down using Task Manager and relaunch the application.
It happens when I play a podcast video and it only happens if iTunes reach the end of the video. If I interrupt the video while it's playing (e.g. choose another podcast or close the video) the application doesn't crash.
I hope you can help me with this problem. I don't want to keep on opening Task Manager just to kill iTunes.

it seems that the iTunes worked properly on the other user account..
but why can't it work on my primary account??

Freezes after playing video playlist

My 60G freezes after playing my video playlist. I have to wait until the battery runs down then plug it in to reboot it for it to work again. I took it back to Best Buy where I purchased it, and they installed the latest update. They claimed this would fix the problem. Wrong! Any suggestions?
Thanks!

There is no screen event triggered when the video finishes playing that you can use to jump to the next slide or unhide a button to enable the user to navigate forward at a time of their own choosing.
If you know the duration of the video, you can place a navigation button on the timeline at that point so that it appears just after the video finishes playing. However, you may find that on different PCs with different system specs the video may take slightly more or less time to play.

My iTunes keeps shutting down after i plug in my iPod

My iTunes keeps shutting down after i plug in my iPod. First it just wouldn't open but now it finds my iPod and then shuts down, it closes it's self. can anyone help?

The five R's don't work because I don't have enough time to restore iPod before it shutsdown, and reinstalling iTunes didn't solve it either.

Itunes keep popping up after i quit itunes

itunes keep popping up after I quit?

Same here, I still can't quit itunes, tried force quit and activity monitor quit. Been like this for several months. Don't have any widgets that I know of, where can I search for them (nothing in my dashboard). Please help thanks.

ITunes freezes after playing or ripping a disc

I'm having big trouble with iTunes. Every time I play or rip a CD, iTunes freezes if I try to eject the disc or close down iTunes. Everything else works fine up to the point when I try to close iTunes and the whole PC locks up and I have to re-boot. I think the problem started when I switched from a USB ADSL modem to an ADSL router/modem. I was running iTunes 8.1 but the problem persisted after I upgraded to 8.2. I'm using Windows XP.
Any ideas folks?

Tania,
This exact same problem has been happening to me (and lots of other people) for quite some time now. What type of computer do you have? I'm wondering if it has something to do with Dell computers. Like someone said earlier, I don't think it's a hardware issue b/c it doesn't happen with Windows Media Player. Anyway, if you want to import your CD's to iTunes you can rip them using Media Player (in WMA format), then import these files to iTunes. This should work for the meantime until someone figures out why our iTunes keeps freezing!

ITunes freezes after playing one song

Since upgrading to the new iTunes that was released today, after playing one song in iTunes in Windows, the program freezes and the only way out is to End Process on it. This only happens the first time that Windows starts up. After iTunes freezes and I End Process on it, and then run it again, it doesn't have this problem until the next time that Windows starts up.
Anyone know what's going on and how to fix it?

Turns out "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service" was doing something that held up the computer when I used iTunes. So I followed these steps to disable the service permanently (since I don't use Windows Media Player): http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/fix-wmpnetwk-exe-in-windows-7/

ITunes keeps on freezing/crashing

I had to remove and re-add a lot of my music because I changed file servers recently.
Well in the midst of all that, iTunes froze. So I force-quit it, and then restarted it. Well lo and behold, it crashes after a few seconds (whether I click somewhere or I don't) it keeps on freezing.
I've restarted twice, but no dice. I don't want to remove the com.Apple.iTunes.plist file because I don't want to have to re-add everything, but the biggest problem is that all my podcasts, my iPod syncing preferences would be ruined, wouldn't they?
Any ideas on how to fix it?

The plist shouldn't remove anything. Try to remove it (while iTunes is closed, of course). If you want to be safe, have a backup of the file.
You may also want to eliminate any plugins you have installed. Those can sometimes cause funkiness with iTunes updates.

ITunes Home Sharing freezes when playing on a Mac

So I have a Mac Mini with all of my movies and TV shows (purchased through iTunes, digital download, etc.). I use Home Sharing to share that content with my Macbook Pro and Apple TV. Everything worked great before Mavericks.
I upgraded both the Macbook and the Mac Mini to Mavericks, and I'm having weird problems viewing video content on ONLY the Macbook Pro. Video still streams fine to the Apple TV.
But when I try and watch video on the Macbook Pro, the video will play for a bit, then freeze after a few minutes. Sometimes after several more, it will continue to play. Sometimes the video will start back up again, but it will be jittery, and there's no audio. Sometimes it just won't start back up at all.
All three devices are connected to an Airport Extreme via gigabit Ethernet so it shouldn't be a bandwidth issue. Nothing in the setup changed other than upgrading software and operating system.
The Mac Mini is also running Mac OS X Server (it was previously) and is only setup for File Sharing. File Sharing works fine. I get high-speed transfer of fimes to and from Mac Mini. Everything is updated (iTunes, OS, OS X Server, etc.)

It certainly looks like a Mavericks problem because my Mac Mini is still on 10.6.8 and I have home sharing enabled on it to play movies on my Mavericks iMac. The movie will freeze with no error and the play button is still showing the pause icon indicating that it should still be playing.
But on my old MacBook Core Duo–still running 10.6.8– there's no problem playing the whole video. My network is also Gigabit and I'm not using any wifi.
Another new problem I get is crackles on the audio when I use my Presonus FireWire audio interface and play a movie - either in iTunes or QuickTime. If I output using Airplay or the headphone socket it sounds clean.
After the movie freezes I get an error in the Console which says- "iTunes: Audio Codec returned an output channel layout incompatible with its output format."

ITunes keeps unexpectedly quitting after installing Leopard

After installing Leopard, iTunes keeps unexpectedly quitting? I've tried recreating the iTunes library with no help.

i had the same problem. finally i found out what was going wrong. it was the digi core audio extension that messed up my itunes. so if you are using pro-tools you should have a look into this possibility.
if not you might want to try and remove any non-apple audio extension and see what happens. don't trash them as you might be able to pin point the problem to only one extension.

Anyone else seeing iTunes 11.1 freeze after cmd-L?

I just updated to MacOS 10.8.5 and iTunes 11.1, and I'm seeing some really irritating behavior from iTunes.
To reproduce:
Start playing a playlist in the library
While iTunes is playing, hit command-L to jump to the currently playing song.
At this point, the iTunes UI completely freezes. It continues playing the current track, but it completely stops at that point. The iTunes window itself is completely unresponsive -- spinning beachball and everything -- and I have to force-quit the application.
I've been able to reproduce this very consistently this evening. The last time it froze, I got the crash-reporter dialog box, which I filled out and submitted, so hopefully someone at Apple will look into this soon.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Yes, this is a real problem. Apple's really broken iTunes with 11.1. The "Next" and "Previous" commands within "Get info" work for me at the "Music" level, but do not work when I am down inside playlists. Spinning beach ball and then I have to Force-quit. Command-L is dead for me too and I have to Force-quit. Makes you wonder about the level of testing that is carried out prior to release. Both of these seem to be related to playlists and their heierarchic nature. I hope it's an easy bug to fix and the next version addresses these issues.

ITunes keeps re-configuring after opening

My problem is my itunes keeps re-configuring each time i open up iTunes, this usually only happens after an update, then you agree to some terms .... etc.
Now it happens everytime! I had this problem b4 but i forgot how i fixed it.
"Please wait while windows configures iTunes" and you wait some time while it does it. I've tried reinstalling it and that doesn't seem to work... neither does removing Pref folders.
PLEASE HELP!

Its cool, here's what you have to do
go to start menu --> run
type regedit, press enter
go to computer/hkeyclassesroot/
find pcast (make sure its pcast and not .pcast, the one you want is nearer the bottom) and right click it
click permissions
during the course of this you may get a message saying you cant change anything, but you can change who can change things. just click ok.
click advanced, then owner tab
change the owner from administrator to whatever name you are using by clicking your username in the box
click ok on both pop-ups to get out of them completely
right click pcast again
click permissions
click OWNER RIGHTS
click the allow boxes beside full control and read
click ok and then exit the program
All set! Now open iTunes normally and it should be fine. Hope this helps.

E52 keeps on freezing after updating to firware 05...

Hi,
I am experiencing a very annoying problem.
I've never had any problems before using my E52 and have been updating it quite regularly. Two days ago i update my phone with the 054.003 firmware using the build in updater and since then the phone keeps on freezing...
Generally it happens when the phone goes to screensaver mode, i just can't get to unlock it one time out of two... But sometimes it just freezes as i'm using it. I've tried to reset the phone completely, even doing a hard reset, nothing works.
It really looks like the update has messed my phone up... So if any of you have an idea for a solution, just let me know please, it's extremely frustrating.

Hi,
I did an update through the phone using a wifi connection with the "SW Update" of the phone. I use a mac and so have no access to ovi suite updates unfortunately...
I thought I'd do a hard reset to restore the initial parameters of the phone but it seems the reset doesn't restore the initial version of the firmware... so no luck there as it still freezes all the time. Is there any way i could downgrade the firmware to the previous version? Maybe that could be a solution.

ITunes keeps launching even after closing.

After upgrading to Yosemite, iTunes will spontaneously start after closing iTunes 12.01.26

Close is not the same as Quit:
click the red ball on the left top and iTunes window is closed, but iTunes is still running: see the light under the Dock icon;
to quit you must quit from the menu bar, or when it is the foremost window by CMD Q key combination.

HT204207 What is the correct setting to have the same Podcasts on my devices but only my computer keeps every episode after playing?

There several podcasts that I subscribe to that I want to keep every episode of in my iTunes library, but only have unplayed episodes of on my iOS devices due to storage limitations. Is there a way to accomplish this? I love syncing, but I can't have the exact same setting on all devices because of storage and data limits from my Wireless carrier.

I actually already checked Pondini's and didn't find the answer. Any other suggestions?
thanks
