ITunes killing my wireless

Installing iTunes 9.1.1.12 64-bit on my HP 5380sc (Win7 64-bit) kills my wireless connection. Using Win restore point prior to installing iTunes, makes my wireless work again. I have tried this several times with the same result.
/Johnny

This might be a conflict due to Bonjour for Windows. I think iTunes installs Bonjour by default now, but I could be wrong about that.
Check your Add/Remove Programs for "Bonjour". If it is there, uninstall it, reboot, and see if that helps.
HTH,

Itunes Kills my wireless network??

Any one have any idea why when I am using Itunes it disconnects me from my wireless network? When I have it connected via a cat5 cable it works fine. I have a server with all my tunes on it and my entire library is on there. This system has been working fine for years until I went to a wireless card in my own pc. Windows media player streams my tunes fine across the network. I am using a TP-LINK TL-WN651G adapter running at 54mbs. The network drops out after about 15-20secs of playing a song or adding one etc etc.
Please help

I have also tried updating from version 7 to 8 Itunes. This did not fix the issue.

ITunes kills my network

Hi, I've seen a number of threads in the past about iTunes killing the network. I'm trying to download the latest firmware for my iPad (4.3.2) but I am unable to do so as my network dies. It only happens when I use iTunes. I am on an ADSL Router, and it seems that it kills my connection between my PC (10.1.1.3) and my router/gateway (10.1.1.1) As I type, my PC has been happily pinging the default gateway for 30 minutes now, but as soon as I try to download apps or the firmware, anytime between immediately and 60 seconds, it starts displaying "General Failure" and "Request timed out" randomly until it dies. I then get random replies of "Reply from 10.1.1.3: Destination host unreachable." The firmware won't allow me to resume the download after it dies, which make it that much more difficult.

I have also tried updating from version 7 to 8 Itunes. This did not fix the issue.

Using airport express for itunes and another wireless network for internet

Is there any way i can use my airport express just for playin music through airtunes, and log onto the internet using a different wireless network?

Hello bleno567. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Is there any way i can use my airport express just for playin music through airtunes, and log onto the internet using a different wireless network?
Yes, you just need to configure the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), that will be used to stream iTunes, as a wireless client.

Je respire à nouveau car mon PC re-fonctionne mais je ne suis toujours pas content de APPLE ou je n'ai trouvé aucun correctif pour ce problème.
Voila l'utilisation et la procédure super pratique du chargement de musique sur mon iPod de 30Giga:
1) J'installe iTunes et je charge les musiques sur mon iPod.
2) Je redémarre mon PC et le lecteur CD/DVD n'existe plus.
3) Je désinstalle iTunes.
4) Je désinstalle le lecteur CD/DVD, je supprime les 2 clés de registre incriminé.
5) Je redémmarre mon PC et je peux à nouveau utiliser mon lecteur.
6) La prochaine fois que je veux mettre de la musique sur mon iPod, je recommence la procédure à partir de 1)
J'espère que APPLE va trouver une solution.

Sony Bluray Player BDP-S570 kills my wireless on my WRT160N

Hi all!
I have a Sony Bluray player BDP-S570 that is hard wired into the Linksys WRT160N router. When I turn on the bluray player it is the only device in the house that has internet. It kills the wireless and the internet to the other wired devices. I've done most of everything that I know to do. Any ideas, suggestions? Is there a setting that I'm missing?

Did you try to upgrade/re-flash the firmware on your router?
If not then download the latest firmware from Linksys website and save it on your wired computer.
Open the setup page of the router and upgrade the firmware on your router.
Change the MTU size on the router to 1365.

After updating to 6.0 iPhone doesn't show in iTunes for the wireless sync

I have the iPhone 4s, after updating to 6.0 it doesn't show in iTunes for the wireless sync. My iPad which is first gen. still shows up. If I plugin with usb it shows up but as soon as I unplug it disappears.
When I click on the sync wireless on the iPhone , it trys to sync but nothing.

it's okay, it is not silly. but yes it was on but i went ahead and turned it, (the phone) off rebooted and turned it back on and rebooted phone again to see if it helps it any.... but to no it did not change, it still doesn't show up. as well as when i look in on wifi and see choose network mine is not populated until after a couple seconds. so it has something to do with not being able to hold on to a wifi signal when going to sleep or putting phone to sleep via power button. i do not see the wifi signal meter until a couple seconds after i wake it up from sleep. and now neither my ipad or iphone show up in itunes. so there is issues i guess with something. i have tried everything an dam too frustrated to do anything more.

New Prob. iTunes kills browser functionality. Have to reboot sat. modem.

When I start iTunes, my browser functionality is killed in both Firefox and IE. Pages start to load and then say, 'done'. Blank browser screen. Email and IM still function normally. I have to close browsers and then reboot my satellite modem before browser function returns. Any clues? I love iTunes and have committed my entire library to it, but I'm at my wits end. Life without music? Thanks.
Dell something Windows XP Pro

Turn off the sharing functionality (both the "look for shared music" as well as the "share my music") and the functionality that lets it look for and find remote speakers. That will most likely prevent it from freezing your satellite modem when you start iTunes.
Also, look into a software or firmware upgrade for your satellite modem, since it obviously has some kind of bug internally as well.

Now that I have iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6, neither device is visible in iTunes, wired or wireless

I did the upgrade wirelessly on iPad2 and a wired upgrade on iPhone4, and then upgraded the iTunes app on my Desktop. Now I get no error and hitting the sync wirelessly, or when plugging it in, but I also don't see the devices in iTunes.
I searched the forums and found a few things with iTunes barking about not recognizing apps, and refusing to sync. And I tried some of the remedies for that, restarting the devices and iTunes, but no help there.
Everything else appears to work fine. I've also upgraded daughter's iPhone, and hope that this can be resolved before she notices that it's broken. Eeek.

Something I rarely do, but a reboot of the mac was required to get iTunes and the iPhones/iPad talking despite the fact that nothing said it was required.

Itunes killed my ipod classic

itunes recently killed two classic 160gb ipods I have within a week of each other when the new version of itunes (10?) was released. I received at different times the following errors
"can't connect to drive f:\" error
"the ipod cannot by synched. The desk can not be read or written to" error
"the ipod cannot by synched. An unknown error occured (-124)" error
"the ipod cannot by synched. The required folder cannot be found" error
"disconnect retry cancel" error
My ipod began skipping songs, it would no longer sync and itunes would freeze when the ipods were connected to my computer.
My ipod shows that it is synchronizing when it is not (I had to set it to manual sync to avoid other errors).   then itunes doesn't run or respond within windows. I eject the ipod. nothing happens. I have to physically disconnect the ipod without ejecting in itunes to get itunes to run.
I've reset the ipods. I put them in Disk Mode. I've connected them to other computers that have itunes 10. Nothing works. Nothing. I've read every discussion group, loaded every driver. Prayed to every saint.
I use an old itunes version (8.0.2.20) because I prefer it to the newer versions that don't have the    Genre     Artist     Album    list categories along the top of itunes. After declining yet another update, my two ipod classic (160 gb) would no longer synchronize, producing the errors above.   At the iPod store on Chestnut St in SF, I get a sneer and a shrug, and I am told I can get my (out of warranty) iPods repaired for $179 each + $59 for the one whose battery died when I (tried but failed to) manually load overnight the music I lost.
Apple ate $600 of my products and 60+ hours of my time. May I please just sell them back my classic ipods and buy different MP3 players? Apple is my least favorite consumer company in my history of buying products of any kind.
Has anyone experienced similar synchronization errors using windows or a Lenovo T500 or itunes 8.0.2.20 with classic 160gb ipods?   If so, would you please recommend a solution to solving my synchronization problems?    Thanks in advance.

No such thing as "manual sync"! You either use Sync to synchronize your iPod with iTunes (look up synhronize - or synchronise in a dictionary) or you manually manage. If you have somehow managed to manually sync, that's probably why you're having problems.

That's definitely not a good idea. If you physically disconnect an iPod (or other storage media) from your computer while the computer is talking to it, you will probably cause corrupted files on the iPod.
The best way to recover from "iPod won't eject" is to turn off the computer, then physically disconnect the iPod. (Once the computer is turned off, you know that it cannot be talking to the iPod.

What?
That's simply not true!
Go (in iTunes) to and select View/Column Browser/Show Column Browser. If it is already showing or once you have it showing, go back into View/Column Browser and below the option to Hide Column Browser will be a menu for Artist, Album, Genre etc. Unfortunately, each one has to be selected one-at-a-time.
My advice to you is install the latest version of iTunes. Then try connecting your iPods to the new version and then get iTunes to check for and install the latest version of software (also known as the operating system or iOS) onto the iPod. Check each and every iPod. If iTunes tells you that the iPod needs a restore, make sure that's done with the latest iTunes.
If you are stuck at that point, post back into this thread again with precise information about what does or does not happen.
By the way - if you connect your iPod to a different iTunes, you run the risk of deleting everything off your iPod if you do not follow the prompts carefully. In addition, if that iTunes updates the operating system of the iPod, then almost certainly that iPod will no longer work with iTunes 8.

ITunes Killed my iPod

I just installed iTunes update/version 7.6 and it killed my iPod. My computer is not recognized by any computer now. I plugged my iPod into 5 different computers and none saw the iPod. All are running Windows XP Pro, and 3 had iTunes 7.6 and 2 had iTunes 7.5. My son had not updated to iTunes 7.6 and his Nano works fine on all computers. So the problem evidently is that iTunes did something to the iPod. I hope Apple figures out a quick, $0 fix since their problem rendered a lot of iPods useless. If they don't, a lot of loyal iPod owners may be converting to a Zune very quickly. If anyone knows a fix, I would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

I just fixed the problem by doing a hard reset on the Nano. Turn the Nano on, then simultaneously push Menu and center button, holding them down until the iPod reboots itself.

ITunes killed my burner! Any solutions?

I upgraded to iTunes 8.0.2 and now cannot burn a disc. Unfortunately now I cannot seem to burn ANYTHING with ANY software.
In iTunes, the disc spins up to burn, but it jumps straight from the first track to "Finishing Disc Burn" and hangs there indefinitely. Nothing is ever written to disc, and short of using the drutil in Terminal, you have to restart to eject the tray. When using toast, I get a drive read error, whether it be attempting to burn an audio CD or a DVD-video.
Does anybody have or know about a solution??
Having read many of the threads, I know this is a widespread issue. I have tried repairing disk permissions (duh), doing a pram reset, removing the plist files, all to no avail.
This reminds me of not too long ago when an airport update completely screwed up my machine's ability to receive ANY wireless signal, thanks Apple. It seems that this iTunes issue would be easy enough to detect before releasing it, many of us have not been able to burn since literally the MOMENT after installation.
Can anyone help??

Update: I was able to burn a CD in iTunes but ONLY at 6x speed. Though this is a good sign, it's still annoying to be only using a small percentage of the drive's capability. Any insights are much appreciated.

Copying itunes files via wireless network?

I'm trying to consolidate my PC's itunes library with the one on my recently purchased macbook. I am able to access and listen to the music through a wireless network (if itunes is open on both computers), but I'm confused as to how to add the shared files to my mac's library permanently. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

well this is what i did on my macbook to get it from my itunes.
In the findre menu select go and connect to server and enter your pc's ip address. It should come up and just enter the name on the other computer and password and u should be in.
Also remember to enable sharing in the system prefrences and select personal file sharing. And do what ever on ur pc to allow sharing.
Hope this helps!

ITunes 10 disables Wireless

Hi there,
So I've upgraded to the newest version of iTunes on my laptop. Since then, my wireless disappeared. I could not even create a new wireless network, and could not connect to the internet at all. I finally got frustrated and did a System Restore to the day before and everything worked fine again. However, now the iTunes does not work at all and tells me I have to re-install it. I can't update to iTunes 10 because of the bug but now I can't even have the older iTunes. Please help!

I'm having the exact same problem. I need to update my phone and this is causing problems for my iphone. I tried to call Apple and the iPhone line about it and they couldnt help me either. Is their a way to possibly pinpoin the bug that is causing this problem?

ITunes with Bluetooth Wireless Speakers

Since my Airport Express is three rooms away from my computer, I want to know if I can get some powered speakers to play iTunes wirelessly in the same room with my computer. Is anyone doing this via Bluetooth? Any recommendations?

According to your signature, you are running a version of 10.4 Tiger, which doesn't really have full support for A2DP. You will probably need to update to 10.5 Tiger for full A2DP support, and then you should be able to do this without problems.
