ITunes sharing stops after exactly 80 minutes

Here's a weird one. I'm sharing my Mac's iTunes library, and connecting to it from my Windows machine. It works fine for 80 minutes. After that, the share disappears. I have to quit and restart iTunes on the Mac for it to re-appear. It's always exactly 80 minutes.
The Mac is being used occasionally during this 80 minutes, so it's not a screen-saver or sleep problem.
The Internet connection is through a cable modem, with a Linksys BEFSR41 router. Both machines are connected to the router, and they are assigned static IP addresses. The Linksys's "Filter Multicast" option is turned on, since this seems to be required to make iTunes sharing work. All incoming network connections are configured to point to the Mac. The Mac has its firewall on, but it's set to allow iTunes Music Sharing.
The Mac is a PowerBook G4 running the latest version of OS 10.4. The PC is a Lenovo laptop running Windows XP SP2. They're both running the latest version of iTunes.
Any ideas?

  • When I play songs on my itunes account, they stop after about one minute and itunes goes to the next one.  how do I fix this? These are songs in entire albums that I have purchased.

    when I play songs on my itunes account, they stop after about one minute and itunes goes on to the next song.  This is happening with songs on albums I have purchased direclty through itunes

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken files from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click on the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If you don't see them straight away it may help to close and restart iTunes.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • ITunes sharing stops working 1 hr after startup. Reboot reqd to fix. Help!

    Hi,
    I've searched high and low and can't find anything describing a similar issue - perhaps I'm using the wrong search terms and someone can point out my stupidity or simply help me to troubleshoot (thanks in advance!):
    The problem:
    I have two Macs, a G5 mini and a G5 iMac, both fully patched up on Tiger. The mini works completely flawlessly but the iMac exhibits odd behaviour when sharing music;
    Basically I cannot connect to the iMac's iTunes shared library after the iMac has been running for about an hour.
    If I reboot the iMac, I am again able to access the share for an hour at which point the share seems to drop (ie music stops playing on receiving device) and I cannot reconnect or see the share.
    Restarting iTunes makes no difference - I must reboot the iMac to get the share working again.
    Furthermore, if I turn on the iMac and don't access the share until 30 mins later, then the share will vanish after 30 mins of use. i.e. still a total of 1 hour after the iMac was started up.
    I have disabled the energy saving/sleep modes and scanned the console logs to see if anything obvious was crashing but I can't seem to find anything (I am a novice at Mac troubleshooting though!)
    I hope this makes sense - any input appreciated!
    Rgds,

    With:
    Windows 8
    Itunes 11
    ATV 3
    Verizon Router MI424WR
    I have done these things in order to get Home Sharing to work
    First solution was to turn off IPv6
    Second was to turn off IGMP Proxy in the routers advnced setting
    Third was to swicth my network type to "Broadband" in the advanced wireless options within the router
    All of those solutions worked individually for a period of time until either itunes or the ATV was updated.

  • When i put my iPhone in the logitech dock and i start the music it stops at exactly 1 Minute. What's the problem? I cleaned the contacts, the same happened again. always after 1 minute the music pauses!

    When i put my iPhone in the logitech dock and i start the music it stops at exactly 1 Minute. What's the problem? I cleaned the contacts, the same happened again. always after 1 minute the music pauses!

    It is a known issue and un-conventional remedy.
    It is Hardware failure. I would get the iPhone changed for a good one.

  • Podcast transmission simply stops after 1:30 minutes

    The following Picture-URL shows my problem very well: http://deep7.shellmaster.de/itunes-prob.PNG
    If streaming any podcast, the transmission of the latter stops after exactly 1:30 minutes.
    Reinstalling Itunes (and, before, both deleting all files including "itunes" or "apple" in their names and cleaning registry) or downgrading on version 5, nothing helps. The problem remains, I cannot listen to a podcast which is longer than 1:30 minutes, if not downloading the whole podcast before listening to it (then it works, very strange!).
    The "Start at" and "End at" (i think it says so in the English version) fields under "Information" when right-clicking on the podcast, are OK, that's the right time.
    Only when wanting to listen to it, it simply displays 1:30 minutes left in the upper field and the transmission of the podcast stops after this time.
    I do not know what could help to solve the problem and so hope for your ideas. Thanks to you already!

    I don't think it's really streaming the podcast to you. What you're seeing is a "preview" mode that lets you hear a sample of the podcast before you subscribe.
    I'm assuming that you're doubleclicking on the episode to hear it. On most podcasts, if you scroll all the way over to the right, there's a button to download just a single episode.
    But normally, I just hit the subscribe to the podcast by hitting the Subscribe button. Once in the Podcasts playlist, I can just double-click on any episode to download the whole thing.

  • My husbands ipad2 keeps freezing on the screen, when he has entered the password what ever he working on stops after approx 2 minutes. It only started this morning and has been working perfectly prior to this.  I purchased this 64gb 3G machine via eBay

    My husbands ipad2 64gb 3G the screen keeps freezing. What ever you are working on stops after about 2  minutes the screen freezes and after another few moments you are required to put you password in again. It only started this morning and had been working perfectly until today. I purchased from eBay three weeks ago. If watching bbc new you can only watch for 2 minutes and same for video and games. Keeps coming back to screen saver where all icons are.  Sometimes we are to use the on off button to get it going again.  I set it up the same as my own iPad 32gb. Hope you can help? Thanks.

    Spilled water without flavorings and especially without sugar is something from which your computer may recover. The best thing to do is to shut off as quickly as possible and remove the battery pack. Place the computer in a sunny window with the lid open to promote evaporation of the water. On top of a refrigerator is also a warm perch that'll promote drying. It is difficult to say exactly how long it takes to dry the computer; that depends on ambient temperature and humidity, and how how water is in there.
    The biggest threat from the water is corrosion of metal parts, so drying quickly is a must. Also, water can form mineral salt deposits that can grow conductive dendrites between adjacent traces on printed circuit boards. The formation of dendrites is aggravated if you apply power before the machine is dried out. The worst damage would be if water managed to get in the breather hole of the hard drive - luckily, the way the drive is mounted, that would be fairly unlikely.

  • Audio stops after about 5 minutes

    After rendering/encoding, the sound on my finished DVD stops after approximately 5 minutes. It is fine on iMovie, and also is there in iDVD when using preview.
    In contrast to other posts in this forum, there are no slide shows on my DVD, and all sound comes from the camcorder together with the video.
    I am using "Create Disc Image", and I have tried both playing back with DVD player from that very disc image, and actually burning it on a DVD and playing it back from there.
    I have also thrown out the whole iDVD project and started from scratch by creating a new project from iMovie.
    Since my DVD is just about 60 min, I have also tried both "quality" and "performance" encoding - same result.
    The audio stops in the middle of a 4-min clip as defined in iMovie.
    I am using iDVD 5.0.1.
    This process (importing from camcorder, editing in iMovie, building menus etc. in iDVD, creating disc image, burning) is something I have done for several DVDs previously without problems (but maybe with iDVD 5.0)

    Thanks for your help! You helped solve the issue, albeit indirectly...
    At this point, I want to share my experience, in the hope that it might be helpful to others:
    After finding that chapter markers had nothing to do with the problem, I found that indeed my camcorder was set to the dreaded 12 bit. Oh dear! The original DV tape is long gone. (At first I did not expect this to be a problem, since I had made several DVDs successfully with the existing settings, but then there are all these horror stories in discussions about what 12 bit can do to you.)
    So to rescue my movie, I found advice to "share" my iMovie back to a fresh DV tape, and then re-import it with the 16 bit setting.
    This lead to the next issue: After a number of minutes of re-exporting to DV tape, the video received by the camcorder would freeze, while the audio continued. This happened at several different points in several differerent attempts.
    So next I visited iMovie discussions, where I found advice to clean up my Mac. I used Mac Sweeper, and now indeed my Mac runs faster and smoother for many apps. I also downgraded my QuickTime version. But another attempt of exporting from iMovie to DV tape also failed, but now it failed at exactly the same point where the audio stopped in my DVD!!! (Even though on the export-to-DV-tape it was not the audio but the video that froze.)
    Next I found that when playing that problematic scene in iMovie, the iMovie program would also freeze at that very point, making it necessary to "force quit" out.
    In the end the solution was to chop out the problematic bit in that scene. Now everything works fine, including the iDVD step.

Once played IPOD NANO (6th generation) by itself, the song stopped after about one minute. This happens to every song. Why? I checked the IPOD NANO setting, but do not see anything need to be changed.

  • Upload to Blurb fails after exactly 30 minutes (There was an error uploading your book's pages...)

    After exactly 30 minutes after the upload has started, I get this error:
    There was an error uploading your book's pages.  Would you like to try again?  The choices given are "Retry Upload" and :"Cancel"
    When I retry, the same thing happens - fails after exacly 30 minutes.  I am using a window 7 pc (with Service Pack 1) and using Lightroom 5.4.  I have turned off my firewall and antivirus programs, rebooted, and connected directly to my router (not wireless) and ensuring my pc does not go to sleep, but did nothing I try wil help. 
    Anyone else get this?  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Hello,
    I had this problem as well - the upload to Blurb would not work. Creation of a PDF and export as JPEG in the book module worked.
    For me, the solution was to turn off the Windows Firewall while uploading. Now it works!

  • Fix for AppleTV photo slide show music stopping after abut 20 minutes?

    Fix for AppleTV photo slide show music stopping after abut 20 minutes?

    Just ran another series of tests ... I am now convinced that AppleTV's slideshow/screensaver is broken.
    Too often it will 'get stuck' on one photo for minutes then show no photo and finally move on; in fact it is doing it right now.
    I don't ever remember seeing this occur before the last upgrade.

  • When using my new nano 7 with nike , my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run for over 30 minutes.It cancels/deletes my run/workout when the music stops.This has happened several times.How can I keep this from happening

    When using my new nano 7 with nike+, my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run/workout for over 30 minutes.  It also cancels/deletes that run/workout.  This has happened several times.  How can I keep this from happening?

    If possible I would arrange for a good service center to go over it. Hopefully they have a variety of parts in stock. They can test and verify all is working. The previous attempts are based on guesses by the person at the other end of the phone without diagnostic tests to assess the culprit. It is extremely unlikely for a webcam to fail & for it & a Mic to fail together should be an indicator to a good technician it is something else. EG Motherboard
    Take it to a servicing dealer and wait for it.
