Losing network drive since updating itunes

running snow leopard
runnign latest itunes and this problem started at the last prior update
i have a time machine and itunes loses the network path to it after like 5 minutes, i connect using a rj 45 and even tried wireless but that made no difference
i can re-locate the itunes folder on the time machine and it reconnects, get a error saying it cant load files but then it does anyway... 5 minutes later the itunes media folder location is blank again
on bootup it goes default
this all worked perfectly fine before on version 10
apple is definitly losing its edge in the last 6 months with bugs and ommisons...
any ideas? because i have tried all the tricks i know

Hi there,
It sounds like you got about half way through the process. You may want to review the process for relocating you iTuens Media found in the article below.

Since updating iTunes and Mavericks, every time I import m4v files into iTunes it renames all the files to "Avidemux". what's gone wrong?

(By the way, would I need to use also the red and white phono cables also to get sound?)
Yes, S-video cables do not carry sound.
When you import 16:9 into DV Widescreen, make sure that you have UNchecked 'automatic letterboxing'.
In Preferences, is the project set to the correct standard?
29.95 fps = NTSC
25 fps = PAL.
BTW, this is actually the iMovie 5 forum, but no matter!

Since updating itunes to 10.1.x downloads went from minutes to many hours

I have a business class internet service which provides 25 mbps down and over 10 mbps up.
Before updating to itunes 10.4.x, an HD tv episode would download in a few minutes, always less than 10 minutes.
Since updating
1) itunes became unstable and crashed regularly
2) it refused to play ANY HD video.
3) downloads from the istore went from a few minutes per episode to many hours
I did all the normal fixes
itunes repair
itunes deinstall and reinstall
itunes and quicktime deinstall and reinstall
rebuilt itunes library
rebooted numerous times
rebooted cable modem
checked speed and verified minimum speed out of several tests was 12mbps
observed download performance in itunes where download started at 2-3 mpbs but rapidly dropped off to 50 - 100 kbps
monitored network performance and observed that most of the time the itunes client is waiting for inputs from itunes store server.
Generated a trouble ticket and have been through 3 levels of "go try this" with no improvement. At the stage where maybe I might get access to an actual support tech.
I am coming to the conclusion that this is a problem at the source where the server servicing the download is either very busy or slow which is creating a long wait period between packets. Basically my itunes client is sitting and waiting on the store for 9 hours to perform what used to be a 15 minute download.
Is anyone else seeing this problem? Does anyone have a recommended fix?

Thank you for your reply. I resolved with advice from 4 year old post instructing "holding down option key while restsrting iTunes and choose the preferred library", but thank you again,

Since Update ITUnes cannot auto find my 14,000+ songs on disc

None of my songs in my library play. I get a warning that it cannot locate the file. In preferences, It shows the correct external disc the files are located at. If I individually search for the file on the disc/folder on that external disc I find it and it plays and ITunes finds it again afterwards. I have purchased over 14 thousand songs from ITunes that I have in there and categorized them in many types of individual folders. I cannot see looking for all of them individually and re-organizing them back into those various folders, which would easily take over six months of work. WHAT THE HECK is an answer her.
Just guessing, of course, but the last time I made an update resulting from a prompt from ITunes to do so, the external drive where my ITunes music folder is located was not on. I do this because I've had too many breakdown of external drives over the years with nightmares re-constructing files. These external drives seem to have a limited life to them. Maybe that is the reason it cannot now find the files. There was NO warning in the update prompt regarding this issue before I did the update.
Would appreciate any help I can get here from those with much more experience than I.

this script might help:
_*iTunes Track CPR v1.3*_
This script attempts to locate the files of so-called "dead tracks"--iTunes tracks designated with (!)--that you assume are not actually missing but are still located in the iTunes Music folder in their "iTunes File Order" (Music -> Artist -> Album -> file.xxx)."

Since updating itunes to version 10 my ipod classic will not sync any new music that I have added to itunes, can anyone help

I recently updated iTunes to version 10.3.1.55. Since then when I try to sync my IPod classic it says on the top of iTunes (where the barbers pole is) "Step 1of1 Determining Tracks to Sync". This stays like that for about 15 minutes before a message pops up saying "Itunes could not copy ""song title name here"" to the Ipod because an unknown error occurred (-50)". This message pos up for every song title that has been added to itunes since the itunes update. Therefore I am unable to sync any new music. This only happens when syncing the ipod as the iphone syncs with no problems.
Does any one have a solution?

There's a good guide here on how to roll back to 10.7 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4559563?tstart=0

Since updating iTunes my new iPod touch 5th generation wont show up.

I recently updated iTunes on Friday. But now that I try to sync my iPod touch 5th generation it is not showing up in iTunes. The iPod asks if I trust this computer and I click yes but nothing happens. What should I do?

In case you haven't found this yet... I managed to fix the problem with my iPhones by updating the USB device driver. The instructions are in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5822553?tstart=0
or you can follow this knowlege base article on the Apple site:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
(for me the problem required me following the instructions in the "If only Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod appears" section, but it may be different in your case)
Maybe Apple updated the USB drivers in this updated version of iTunes? I'm not sure why the installer failed to install these drivers automatically (maybe that isn't possible??). Maybe this is just a Windows problem and has nothing to do with Apple? Who knows...

Problem with network drives since upgrading

Anyone else having issues with mapped network drives in Mavericks?
I've bene using a Windows 2012 server for ages and not had any problems with the various drive mappings, but since upgrading to Mavericks I'm constantly getting an error -51 when copying files, only a reboot fixes it, and then only for a short while. Nothing has changed on the server.
Other non Maverick machines are working fine.

Yes, same problem here and there are more reports in this forum. A patch from Apple is required, I think.

Since updating ITunes sofwr some time ago, Used to be able to go to ,"File", "Get Info" and dragdrop my picture into the artwork box,click OK.No longer!Won't save/displayWHY?

Since updating my Itunes software some time ago, I've not been able to add my own artwork,ie album covers, to my own personal albums.Used to be able to go to "File," "Get Info" and drag/drop my photo into the artwork box, hit save/OK and Voila! No longer and it's Really frustrating. It will let me drag it there but it
won't save it or display it. (Why they go and break somethin' that was working fine?....just an aside) What must one do now to display their own artwork for albums that are non purchasable online?

Thanks again. Though I'm not really tech savy, I don't believe this issue has to do with Tags.
it has everyrhing to do with tags.
The artwork is stoed in the Artwork tag field.
Since WAV files do not have tags, there is no where to store the tags.
If you use iTunes to get artwork for WAV files, it puts themn into the AlbumArt folder adn links it to the correct files via the iTunes library.itl file.
All other formats (MP3, AAC, AIFF, Apple Lossless) have na artwork tag to store the artwork in the media file itself.
in the past, to add my own personal artwork,
Not to WAV files. You must have imported them as a different format.
