My itunes is always busy
Every time I try to get on itunes is says it is busy or check internet connection......
The "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" solution did not work for me, but this did:
In your iTunes library, make sure the "iCloud Download" column is showing (looks like a little cloud icon). Check for any songs that have a light gray cloud icon. Do whatever you need to do to make this icon disappear for that song (get iTunes to make sure it's downloaded onto your machine, or delete the song). Run Sync My iTunes again and it should finish.
Notes:
- Plugging in your iPhone/iPod might cause these songs to get copied back into your library, and you'll have to do this again.
- I didn't start having this problem until I bought Match
How I discovered this:
I noticed that it stopped every time at song #1242 in my library, so I ran "Sync My iTunes (Debug)" to see which song it stopped on. Then I went back to my library, found the song, and noticed it had the light gray cloud icon. It also had a local copy of the song already. I think iTunes gets confused sometimes and forgets that it downloaded a song from your cloud library, then tries to download it again even though it's already on your computer. Then it realizes the file's already there, and doesn't download it. However, it leaves it in your library flagged as an incomplete download. Sync My iTunes triggers iTunes to attempt download, which then makes it look like iTunes is busy. My theory at least...

It's called from iTunes. After downloading some podcasts it currently consumes two threads on my 4 core Mac mini (4 real cores with 2 native threads each). That means 200% busy. For hours. Earlier versions of Mac OS X / iTunes did not have this problem...
How can I get rid of that behavior?
Regards,
Rainer JoswigBack up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MediaLibraryService
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
I'm trying to use "Sync My Itunes" to use my Ipod Touch in my 2011 Ford Escape. I keep getting an index is full and all songs may not play message. When I use the "Sync My Itunes" I always get the message that Itunes is busy and to try again later. How do I get this to work? I can't reset my Ipod without losing all my 4,000+ tunes. Help!

I am using win vista and have installed itunes for my ipod shuffle four years back. now I have purchased iphone 4, and trying to reinstall itunes after uninstalling my earlier itunes i always get a message that error in installation. kindly help
You might find this article helpful: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
It has the error range of 3000's which states
Errors 3000-3999 (3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the gs.apple.com server on ports 80 or 443. This may be because out-of-date or incorrectly configured security or firewall software is interfering, an old version of iTunes is installed, an entry in your hosts file redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see error 1004 above), or because of your Internet proxy settings. If you are using a proxy, try without using one or with a known-good network. If that does not resolve the issue, follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues. Error 3014 may indicate that you need to free up more disk space on the computer before trying to restore again. Error 3194 most likely indicates you do not have the latest version of iTunes installed Update to the latest version of iTunes. -
My online number is always "busy" even when its no...
I have troubleshooted and posted on here and changed privacy settings and upgraded to the latest Skype version and have been in a continuous online feedback loop w/ Skype desperately looking for answers. MAD!
My 3 month online number does NOT work, and now Skype is sending me emails saying that I can extend it. No way. I want my money back, and I want the number to work. Do I really need to buy MORE credit in order to get an answer? will absolutely abandon skype.lyndertia wrote:

Hi,
I have setup an online Number in Geneva, Switzerland last week. After setting it up, I have tried to test it by calling it but its always busy. I wonder if there is an activation period for such numbers. If this is so, can any body tell me how long it takes for online numbers to become active?
Kind Regards.
Omer
Solved!

Hello Omer and welcome to the Skype Community Forum
Your Online # should become active within a few minutes of purchase. If it didn't please
first check that your privacy settings are set to ''Allow calls from anyone''.
Then change them to "Allow SkypeIn calls from Only people from my Contacts List".
Save and wait for 5 minutes.
Log out from your Skype account and log back in.
Change settings back to "Allow calls from Anyone".
Save and wait for 5 minutes.
Log out from your Skype account and log back in.

Is it normal for laptop HD to be always busy (L745-S4210)???
I'm experiencing choppy video issue on our 2 months old L745-S4210 laptop, which cannot be resolved even with recovery method. One thing I have noticed is HD seems always busy, which could potentially cause choppy video.
Can someone check your laptop HD and post if you're having similar issue? aside from choppy video issue (and HD being busy), there is no apparent issue with the laptop.
Thanks in advance,Is the video from a dvd or online - like you tube?

Odd iTunes glitch -- always plays the same song, after the song I selected...
After one song plays on iTunes, it always next plays one particular song -- not the next song on the list, but a specific track, every time. I'd like iTunes to simply play the next track down. How can I fix this?... thanks very much --
Do you have the the Repeat feature turned one? It is the arrowed racetrack on the left side of the Now Playing Screen right below the scrubber bar. Tap it until it is white for no repeat.
Next:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
