ITunes running super slow after latest update, today.

I just updated my software on iTunes and suddenly it's running super slooooooow!
It takes about 2 to 4 minutes to open.
New computer. Running Windows 7. It's not my computer. I promise.
iTunes was super fast until I just updated the software, this morning.
Plus, now it doesn't recognize my iPhone 4.
All of other programs are still running at lightening speed.
So, any suggestions? I'm expecting my new iPhone 4s, today and really don't want to have any issues going in.
This is very frustrating!
Thanks!

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Safari super slow after latest update to 10.9.1.  Please help.  Thanks.

    My internet is deathly slow after doing the update.  Any advice?  Other programs seem fine.  Thanks, Yvette

    Hi yipck,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend starting with the tips in this article if Safari is loading web pages slowly:

  • Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.

    Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
    It takes up to 10 minutus.
    If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
    For instance:
      Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
    followed by
      SendWakeupPacket error: sent -1 bytes: 10065
    What can this be?
    Already thanks,
    John

    I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
    Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
    So I contued with the user section.
    I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    This gave the same result in not starting up.
    Then I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
    I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
    But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
    Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
    Manually starting was not a problem.
    Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
    So Matt thanks for your answer.
    If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.

  • Macbook pro running super slow after downloading Lion

    My mac book pro is running super slow after downloading Lion. Its so slow and all I see is the beach ball wait icon. Also my safari and firefox internet apps crash like crazy. What can I do? Hate it!

    Hi,
    I also have this problem. My MacBook pro was brand new in august, but i bought it just a few days before the release of lion so i installed lion after i bought it. Only used it 1 day with whatever was on it before and seemed to work fine.
    Ive been too busy to do anything about it but im very annoyed by how slow it is so i have to do something now, what can I do? can someone help with some specific steps? someone posted something about changing the network settings but I wasnt sure if that applied in europe (spain)... any guideance in non-technical terms please?
    THANK YOUUU

  • ITunes running super slow

    Whenever I open iTunes now, my system starts running super slow. All other applications are gasping for air. iTunes itself runs slow. If I click on a track name to change it, it can take 10 seconds before it responds. Whenever I close iTunes, it takes around 20-30 seconds to save the Library information.
    I now only use iTunes for syncing my iPod unfortunately, as it's not practical to use if I'm actually doing anything else on my computer.
    Any ideas what's going on? All of my tracks are on my external hard drive with plenty of free space left. This all seemed to happen sometime during the last 3-5 iTunes updates, as it was fine before that.

  • IPhone running super slow after upgrading to SO5

    i took it to the apple store and they told me to back up everything and then try restoring.  I did, and has made no difference.  all apps run SUPER slow.  safari is SUPER slow.  so frustrated.

    Did you try a Restore as New...
    Backup and Set Up as New Device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • Itunes will not launch after latest update 2/2014

    Just installed latest update for iTunes on 2/21/2014 on my MBP running snow leopard and after restarting MBP iTunes will not  launch.
    Thank you
    MacBook Pro
    Late 2008 unibody running Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    Yes, first, I would run Disc Utility; Verify Disc, Verify Disc Permissions, & Repair Disc Permissions.
    Then I would go here > http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ for the .dmg file download.
    Then I would reinstall iTunes. So, unless you do not have enough free space on your hard drive, that should work.
    Otherwise, it may be time for some spring cleaning...
    Regards,
    mm~

  • ITunes will not launc after latest update (Mac version)

    Hi
    I was prompted by the software updater to update iTunes the other day, and so I did. When I first launched iTunes after the update, there was the usual window where i had to agree on Apple's this-and-that that always follows an update, but then nothing happened. After a while, Finder said iTunes was not responding. Now everytime I attempt to launch iTunes, the little triangle will appear beneath the iTunes icon in the dock as if the program was running, but nothing happens. It immediately stops responding, and I cannot even force close it. It's a bit like Windows...
    Anyone else with this problem, and maybe with a solution?

    I do not get any error code when launching iTunes or double-clicking a audio file. iTunes attempts to launch (bouncing icon in dock), then stops responding.
    I have now tried repairing disk permissions and deleting iTunes-related files from the personal/library/preferences folder, all to no avail.

  • Why is Firefox slow after latest update?

    I just updated to v24 and it is really lagging a lot. I've tried resetting, disabling add ons, updating add ons, restarting in safe mode... the whole nine yards. I've done every troubleshooting I can think of and it is still really laggy and slow. I have Windows 7 and a 64bit system. I didn't have this problem until the latest update.

    This always seems to happen with updates. They fix a bunch of bugs, but create new ones, or don't fix old persisting ones. I was under the impression that Firefox speeds up with every update, but it would seem to be the opposite. I am perturbed that users have to jump through hoops to find workarounds. eg. Things were working just fine before, now that it isn't after the new update, we have to delete old user profiles, dig through subfolders to find duplicate files created to delete, and restart from scratch. Which can take hours of your time. All because Firefox messed things up. If Firefox broke it, they should fix it. Not us, we don't get paid to do their job. I'm always for "if it's not broke, don't break it, so you don't have to fix it." Also what's the point of having a "hardware acceleration" feature, if it doesn't work?

  • HT4061 Anyone unable to power phone on after latest update today?

    I just did the latest update when the message popped p on my phone today, and now my phone will do nothing.  When I hold the round button down it beeps, but won't do anything else. 

    I'm having the same "Unable to read the SIM card" issue. My phone is less than two months old, the unable to read SIM card issue started about a week after I purchased the phone. That was followed by a host of erratic, sporadic issues to the phone becomes unusable and the only way to temporarily fix it is to remove the battery for a few seconds.  I've gone through the factory reset with Verizon reps where I purchased the phone from as well as with a Verizon online Chat representative. In a nutshell, I got a ticket to send the phone back to Samsung in Plano, Texas to get the phone fixed, I am going to do that today because this problem is ridiculous.

  • ITunes won't work after latest update on Windows 8.1

    I downloaded the latest update for iTunes yesterday on my new Windows 8.1-enabled laptop, and now, even though I can start the application up, doing literally anything freezes it up and requires a manual restart.  It is literally completely broken.  I need to find a solution immediately, or I might have to start using different software.

  • My mac has become very slow after latest update of yosemite

    i have installed the latest update for yosemite and my mac is extremely slow. Its i5 2013 model. help please?

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console 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 and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • AE CC Slow after latest update?

    I've noticed since the most recent CC update that AE is really unresponsive.  Long delays to clicks.  Saves take a few seconds.  Nothing changed on this editing station but the AE CC update. 
    Win 7 64bit Pro
    32GB RAM
    2GB Nvidia
    USB3 drives
    Same as always, nothing changed as I said.  Please, forgive my sounding like a complete jerk, don't try to send me in the "chasing the tail" stunt on this one with "have you tried blah blah blah on the workstation bit".  The only thing that changed was the AE update.
    What happened?  I've checked with other users who are reporting the same issue since this update.

    Thanks Todd. 
    Updated to latest.  Did testing.  There's obvious improvement in the dropdown menus performance.  However, there's no improvement in parameter controls on native AE effects (Hue/Saturation for example).  Key entry and slider interaction show a consistent 6-7 second lag between activation to update (some 10-15 timed tests across multiple parameters).  We've tested this across multiple native effects on basic layers (image, solid, adj, etc.). 
    Our verdict:
    Partially addressed, at menu level.  Thank you very much for this.
    No change in parameter controls and screen refresh.  Appears independent of resolution setting (full, half, quarter, etc.) and preview mode (adaptive, fast, etc.).
    Our testing was done in brand new projects and across multiple new comps on the latest update using only AE native presets.
    Hope this helps. 
    Best,
    Tobias
    p.s.  I forgot to mention that the lag mentioned above was also tested on layer parameters, (position, rotation, etc.).  Same results.
