My Computer freezes when.... (iPod help)

Sometimes when I am in iTunes putting music on my iPod video from a CD my computer freezes up. The music is coming off a CD and when the 1st song is converting off the CD the PC freezes. But it doesn't do it with every CD. Some CD's go on there fine. So someone know whats going on. I am running off Windows XP home edition.

Have you resolved your problem? I am going through the same thing and I am so frustrated. I have hundreds of cds I want to import but this is happening to me all the time. here are the results of the cd diagnostics:

If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

  • ITunes and Computer freezes when ipod is connected

    When I connect my video ipod to my computer (dell desktop) the system freezes, as in it will not respond to mouse clicks and keyboard (but can still get to task manager). When I unplug the ipod it comes back to life. Programs always freeze, but sometimes I am able to navigate within windows without it freezing, but as soon as a program is brought up, my computer falls to its knees.
    I have the latest version of iTunes, and updater v. 1.1, (but I have not been able to update the firmware yet from v 1.0).
    The odd thing is last night I was able to download several gigs worth of music to it without incident. I then tried to load movies (they were in the wrong format, but I didn't know it at the time), and so in an effort to correct that I uninstalled itunes, the ipod drivers, and the ipod updater programs several times.
    I cannot update the ipod firmware because the computer freezes when the ipod is plugged in, so the program freezes as well. Kind of a catch 22 situation.
    I have been over the forums and help archives for about an hour and a half now and I have come up dry.
    Windows XP does recognize the ipod when the cable is connected, and the ipod flashes, "Do not disconnect", which it is supposed to do.
    I suspect this is drivers/software, but I have no idea where to go from here.
    Help?

    Hey!
    That EXACT thing happened to me! 2 nights ago I'm downloading like crazy, all is well. I got on LimeWire and downloaded some videos and tried to put them on my iPod. Imported them into iTunes then tried to put em on my iPod and it completely wiped out all my songs! So I get back on, put the songs back in, and about half way through the update the thing freezes. I've re-installed everything, and have reset my iPod. Did you figure out what to do? Maybe your fix will fix my problem, too.
    Thank you!

  • Entire Computer Freezes When iPod plugged in..

    Hey Guys
    When my fiance plugs her ipod into her USB port, it works fine for a few moments. Then the computer decides the slow down to the point it freezes. This does not happen with on either of my computers so I know its hers. I reinstalled itunes, did ipod update, got rid of any spyware or viruses, changed the USB port it was using and still no success! Restore is the only thing left but I don't think that will do much.
    Anyone else have any suggestions????

    Hmm..
    Make sure no other programs are open while iTunes is, sometimes having too many open programs slows a computer down.
    Nothing else should be connected to the computer when her iPod is.
    Have you tried a diferent USB port?
    If you have a firewire cable, have you tried that?
    Does the computer freeze until you decide to shut it down or it freezes for a couple of minutes? The reason I ask is because when I connect my Nano to my computer, it freezes for about 5 mins searching for my Nano and then it shows in the iTunes' "Source" list.

  • What can i do my computer freezes when i use safari and word document?

    My computer freezes when I am using Safari and word document. Can some help me??

    The same thing just happened to my new ipod today while i was trying to use an app. A lot of people say that it is caused by an ios update, but I let the battery on my ipod drain until it turned off.  Once i charged it, it turned on and is working normally again

  • Computer freezes when I plug in Nano

    Whenever I plug in my Nano into this computer, this computer freezes.The iPod screen looks like it's only charging, without the "Do Not Disconnect" screen. I have tried plugging in the iPod into two other computers, a PC and Mac, and it worked fine for both of them, "Do not disconnect" and all. However, I have tried almost everything on this computer. I have disabled all programs that load at start-up, I have reinstalled iTunes about 3 times, I have restored my iPod twice and formatted it once through the "My Computer" window and I have scanned for both spyware and viruses. I'm going absolutely insane over this whole thing, as nothing seems to be working and this just happened unexpectedly for no apparent reason.
    If someone could help me, that would be VERY NICE.

    You probably have a drive collision on your computer: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499
    Be sure to only connect your iPod (to a rear USB port on your computer) keyboard and mouse, and disconnect all other USB devices, including printers, digital cameras, scanners, thumb drives, flash memory, external hard drivers, threshers, etc. prior to changing the drive letter. Also, if you are on a network, disconnect, and use a much higher drive letter like M or P or Z.
    As for viruses, etc., make sure all of your antivirus/spyware software preferences are set not to scan iPods. If you are manually managing your music, or have enabled disk use on your iPod, you will also have to set it to not scan removable storage devices.

    have a new computer and when ipod connected it synchronises up to the end when a message appears "Cannot be synced; You do not have enough access priveleges for this operation"
    can anyone help

    Launch iTunes on your new computer then from the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.
    Try syncing.

  • Itunes 11.4 freezing when ipod touch 5 connected to windows 7 64bit

    Every time the iPod touch 5th generation is connected to ITunes in Windows 7 64 bit, the stupid iTunes freezes. The only way to unfreeze is to disconnect it. This problem has been going for a very long time. Upgrading iTunes does nothing. ITunes 11.4 does not fix the problem. There is no way to sync iPod touch with windows 7. This getting very frustrating. When is someone going to post a fix that permanently fixes this problem that has existed for a long time. Anyone got a brain that works?
    A few months ago someone posted a fix that required to disable a windows update that work for a while. Now iTunes is back to its old freezing behaviors. Fix it Apple now!..

    This is a useless reply. It does not work. Uninstalling and reinstalling does nothing to fix it.  Itunes always freezes when Ipod is connected. This is a problem with Windows 7 64bit and is very common problem. Itunes doesn't want to cooperate with 64bit windows. If you search the internet, lots are having the same problem. This problem has existed for 10 years. Every new version of itunes never fixes the problem. Why can't Apple and Microsoft work together to fix the issue. This is unacceptable. Apple software designers are very lazy and stupid.

  • Why does my computer freeze when updateing if i have enough disk space and no disk repairs are needed?

    I have problems updating my softwarebecause my computer freezes when it restarts to install. I have enough disk space and I checked for disk repairs and everthing is ok. Still can't update and not my cumputer is taking longer to turn on. There is an earth blinking then i get the apple logo blinking before it turns on and this takes close to 5 minutes.

    When you say, "disk repairs" are you referiring to permissions or verifying the disk because clearly there's a problem.
    Boot from your install disc, run Disk Utilty to "verify" and if necessary repair the startup disk. (Not Verify Disk Permissions).

  • Computer and iTunes freezes when iPod is plugged in

    Hi there.
    I'm using Windows Vista x32 SP1 and lately I've had a problem with my iPod and iTunes. It hasn't always been like this as recently I have been updating my iPod, but for some reason something has caused a problem.
    I can use iTunes fine and play songs from it, until I plug in my iPod. When the iPod is plugged in, I can't use anything on iTunes, be it sync, change song, or anything. I can't even access the iTunes screen if I have changed window.
    Nor can I access the "Computer" section of my computer, where the "iPod" folder is stored - this freezes up as well.
    However, as soon as I unplug the iPod, everything starts working again. However, this means that I can't ever sync, or even fix/scan - because I only get these options AFTER I have unplugged it. I have restarted my computer and reinstalled iTunes, as well as resetting my iPod (pressing the center button and menu) whilst plugged in, and whilst unplugged - all to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have searched through the internet for ages trying to find a solution and I can't seem to find any answers. Thanks!

    ANY help would really be appreciated... My iPod is corrupted I think but I can't restore it due to the above problems so everything's going wrong.

  • Computer freezes when i connect ipod mini 4gb

    i have a problem with my ipod mini 4gb (2nd gen.) for like 2months, it freezes when i connect it to my windows computer.
    i tried to reset my ipod en reinstal itunes, but nothing worked. PLEASE HELP!

    Hmm... See, I've tried that already (And just tried it again) and instead of allowing me to run it, the computer freezes entirely, just as it would if the "Restart your computer" message came up, only it doesn't show the text, and nor does the screen dim. The only thing I can do at that point is hold down the power button, thusly shutting the computer down. So I cannot restore my iPod that way. Are there any other ways? Or does anyone perhaps have any other suggestions?

  • Windows freezes when ipod is connected but charges fine-HELP!

    I've had my 80GB ipod video since October.Its never frozen before or anything like that.2 Days ago,I connected it to the computer and a few seconds later,the computer froze.Ever since,everytime I connect it,Windows freezes.I don't think there is a problem with the USB cable because it carges fine on my plug and also after the computer freezes,it keeps charging but no "Do Not Disconnect" on the screen.Thing is,it says "Do Not Disconnect" before th computer starts and then it stops and charges as soon as the Windows XP logo comes up and then the computer doesn't even start,freezes at the Windows XP screen.Help would be much appreciated.
    Thank You
    Ian

    Usually theres no need for this, cuz when you uninstall iTUnes it does not erase the iTUnes Library, nor any music on the PC.
    That said its always a GREAT idea to back up your music regularly. Apple covers this on there site by using iTUnes to burn backups on CD, but it doesn't include backup of the all important iTunes Library file that contains all the playlist rating playcount Ect ect here it is tho http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93033
    Long as you have all your music in one folder like "My Music" you can just copy it to an external Harddrive. that will backup all the music AND all the iTUnes librarys and crap since its in the "My Music" folder by default
