ITunes v7.7.0.43 syncclient. exe using excessive cpu

I recently updated iTunes to v7.7.0.73 and my orginal iPhone to v2 and the syncclient.exe process is going nuts! As soon as iTunes is started, this process consumes almost all available cpu and creates constant disk reads (VERY BUSY) until I kill it.
I found similar posts on the iTouch Discussion so this is clearly a iTunes problem. Disabling Sync in iTunes will prevent the process from starting but...
FIX IT APPLE!!!

  • Apple mobile device exe used excessive CPU

    I am running iTunes on Windows 7 32 bits and as sson as I open Itunes, Apple Mobile Device exe. will start to use up to 50% of my CPU. Even when I have closed iTunes this contnues. Is there a fif for this since it will of course mean that all other processes will be slowed down and that the heat from the CPU finally will lower the life of my lap op.

    You can try looking at some of the previous posts on the right under the heading "More Like This" with your same problem.

    I upgraded to iTunes 10.5 on XP and now it and applemobiledeviceservice.exe use 100% CPU. How do I fix this?

    When I called Apple Support to ask about the 100%  CPU usage, they wanted to charge me because my Ipod was out of warranty.  I insisted on talking to someone and finally got to talk to a software engineer for free.  He said that he had never heard of the problem in his three years at Apple.  Nonetheless, he sounded really interested and suggested that it might be a conflict with anti-virus software.   I deleted the antiviruse and that DID NOT HELP AT ALL.
    It seems as if Apple could care less.    There is no official response.   Their primary response is to look at the Forum.   At least you find out that the problem isn't your fault, it really is Apple!!!!
    So far the best solution is just to delete iTunes and use Mediamonkey to sync your pod.
    Apple, please fix this!!!!!

  • EP 6 SR1 -  jlaunch.exe using 25% cpu under no load

    Hi,
    We installed EP SR1 (patches SP9) on virtual machine on MS Virtual Server 2005.
    J2EE server (jlaunch.exe process) is using 25% cpu on average without any load (no user interaction).
    Response is slow when accessing the portal.
    I assume this is not a normal behavior of J2EE engine.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem, suggestions on how to resolve it will be appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • LMS.exe using 25% CPU

    Noticed that the LMS.exe on my new T510 is constantly using 25% of the CPU, I assume this is not normal, anyone know what I need to tweak please?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I don't know why it's constantly using 25% CPU, but i belive the file belong to "Local Manageability Service" (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-74374). You could try to upgrade to the latest version if not already done so. I'm also under the impression that very few people actually use this so you could uninstall as well and disable in BIOS if you don't need it. I don't have it installed and keep it disabled in BIOS since i don't need it. Like to only install what i need to keep it as simple and clean as possible.

  • A process java.exe uses 100% cpu

    This problem stops me start database 10g on Windows XP. I am wondering anyone might have same experience before and could share how to fix the issue. Here is situation:
    Every time when 10g database starts, a process java.exe which is loaded by nmesrvc.exe (I think it is OracleDBConsoleMyInstance, right?) uses 89% cpu forever. Because of this, OEM couldn't work! Shutdowning the database and restarting it didn't solve the problem. Killing nmesrvc.exe can stop the java.exe. SQL*Plus still works. But iSQL*Plus didn't works.
    If I stop process OracleDBConsoleMyInstance from Services of Windows, I got error: Error 1053.
    What is wrong here. Your help will be appreciated,

    I had the same problem and was able to resolve it.
    I am using 2 W2K3 servers, one for infrastructure and one for mid-tier (Portal). On the infrastructure machine I used the Administrative Tools -> Services Management Console and first stopped the OracleDBConsole, CPU was still 100% busy. Then I stopped the OracleINFRAControl and the CPU went to 0%. Then I restarted the OracleINFRAControl and then OracleDBConsole and now the CPU is hovering around 2%.
    I ran some tests from another machine and everything seems fine.

  • "parentalcont" process using excessive CPU

    I noticed my iMac really struggling this evening with a web conference - the case heating up and the video connection dropping quite often.  I looked at Activity Monitor and the % User value at the bottom jumped to 25-30% every few seconds with nothing really running, but no processes in the list were showing high CPU use.  I used the "top" command in terminal and found that the process "parentalcont" was consuming excessive CPU cycles (it showed around 95% every few seconds).
    I just set up an account for my 6-year-old to play with her online disney games and what-not a few days ago and enabled parental controls.  Never used them before.  After going to "Preferences>Users" and disabling parental controls the problem went away.
    Anyone have any idea why parental controls would act this way?  When I'm not even logged in to the account that uses them?
    Thanks.

    "parentalcont" is what displays in the "COMMAND" column when using the "top" function in terminal.  That column appears to be limited to 12 characters so it is probably truncating the name. (e.g.  "Folder Actio" is another one listed).  This process doesn't show up at all in Activity Monitor.
    An update:  After some trial and error, I've found that the "Limit Applications" function of parental controls appears to be the culprit.  When I tell it to limit applications to "Up to 9+" the CPU use skyrockets after a 10-30 seconds, and the process shows its state as "stuck".
    Kind of a head-scratcher but I think the solution may be to just not use the "Limit Applications" feature.  All I really wanted was the Simple Finder and to block bad websites.

  • Forte Partition using excessive CPU

    Dear All,
    I have an intermittent problem whereby a forte partition seems to be
    hogging excessive CPU but upon investigation doesn't appear to be doing
    anything.
    We can identify the partition and want to restart it with logging on the
    partition.
    Does anyone know what flags to set so that the problem can be diagnosed
    Regards

    Could you do us the honour of linking to this fix? I'm having the same problem; java using 100-120% CPU for some mystery process, even when every app has been quit. Googling it only points in the direction of coder sites and this thread, which whilst being 'fixed' doesn't actually offer one.

  • Creative Cloud using Excessive CPU

    Since an update early today (9/12/2013), the Creative Cloud executable is consuming excessive CPU.  It's basically using an entire 100% CPU of a core on an i7 6-core system.  At first it said I had updates in the task notification area, so I clicked on the notification, but no response occurred.  After several minutes of no response, I noticed the fans on my computer were running fast, which is unusual when the computer is sitting there idle.  I opened up process explorer to see what was going on.  I found the Create Cloud suite consuming an entire core's worth of CPU.  See snapshot.
    Is this app doing a busy-poll loop?
    is someone at Adobe listening? Please fix this problem ASAP!

  • Ituneshelper.exe uses 50% cpu

    I walk into the room and my wife is playing her games on Pogo. I hear the dell fan running like mad and ask her how long it has been running so loudly. She says for over an hour and it won't stop. I look at task manager and see ituneshelper.exe is using 50% of the cpu.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Ok, stopped iTunesHelper and then ran iTunes and quit iTunes: everything is now behaving. (I'm not even seeing iTunesHelper in the Processes tab when I open iTunes now.) Odd? I've also just restarted and run iTunes without any any spike in CPUs by iTunesHelper as well. ??? (Tentative cheers!)
    When I first upgraded to 7.5, iTunesHelper was immediately using major CPUs, even after I closed iTunes (but not of course after ending the process). I restarted the computer and opened iTunes (and had to reinstall missing files) and ran into the same CPU situation, which seemed to be upon opening the program if I recollect.
    I'll post again if this issue has not resolved (as it currently seems to be). Thank you, thank you!!

  • Webcached.exe uses all CPU on IAS server

    Hi, I'm having trouble with a process called webcached.exe according to Windows task manager, this process takes all available CPU resources, so our IAS server hangs. Anyone why this is? Any help highly appriciated! I'm pretty new to Oracle Application server, and have not experienced this before...
    Is there a way to "go around" web cache until this issue is resolved, i.e. not use cache for a while perhaps? Longer responses are better than complete hangups....
    I've tried to just stop the webcache process, but this apparently is not the way to go...
    Windows server 2003 + IAS 10g (9.0.4.1.1)

    Your post is a while ago... but you should upgrade Web Cache to 10.1.2.3, or install it in a separate location and configure it against your backend application. This is supported.
    Webcache 9.0.4 is known to have some performance issues :)

  • Itunes using excessive cpu

    I upgraded the iTunes to 11.0.4
    Everytime it is running since then, even in the background i noticed that the process for it is has a vey high cpu usage (above 95% at all times). This is while im not even using it to play or sync or anything.. the problem is persistent. I think thats really abnormal. can anyone suggest soemthing?

  • Qttask.exe using 95%+ CPU

    I've installed iTunes on my PC and it's now virtually come to a halt.
    The culprit appears to be something called qttask.exe which is taking 95-99% of my CPU power.
    I understand this is something to do with updates for Quicktime.
    I've uninstalled once and re-installed again, but still the same result.
    Any clues on what's wrong and how to solve this?

    In QT settings uncheck system tray icon. Then go to Start>Run and type in msconfig and click OK then click on the Startup tab and uncheck qttask.exe. This will stop it from loading on startup and let you know if QT is the culprit, which unlikely it is

  • Service Host (svchost.exe) Using 99% CPU

    Hey guys-
    I know this question has been asked for other Windows OS's, but none of their fixes apply on Windows 8.
    When I log in, everything is fine, everything is very smooth and even faster than when I used Windows 7, but after a few minutes my CPU becomes locked at ~99%, mostly because of svchost.
    As it appears on Task Manager, the process is Service Host (No Impersonation). The sub-processes are Function Discovery Resource Publication, SSDP Recovery, Time Broker, and UPnP Device Host. I tried several fixes that worked in XP or 7, but they either
    can't be used in 8 or detect nothing is wrong.
    This is the only thing that makes me dislike 8 so far, a fix would be fantastic.

    Make a xperf trace to see the cause. Install the WPT (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/4847.install-the-windows-performance-toolkit-wpt-en-us.aspx),
    open a CMD prompt with admin rights and type this:
    xperf -on latency -stackwalk profile -buffersize 1024 -MaxFile 512 -FileMode Circular && timeout -1 && xperf -d highCPUUsage.etl
    after you captured 30s of the cpu usage, go back to CMD prompt and press a key to stop the logging. Now compress the highCPUUsage.etl as 7z (LZMA2, ULTRA) to reduce the size. Upload this file to your SkyDrive or Dropbox and post a link
    here.
    If you have upgraded from Windows 8.1 and you have a high CPU usage that you can't detect in Process Explorer like shown here:
    you have an issue with a scheduled task. Look at the green "sdclt.exe". This means the sdclt.exe is started very often. This causes the CPU usage.
    You can see this best in ProcessMonitor:
    The solution is to disable this task in the task scheduler:
    Also phone the Support and open a case so that MS can fix this issue.
