My itunes is stuck processing?

I have an I pod five and just downloaded an itunes book and it has been processing for a while now. I am wondering if this is normal or not. Memory is not an issue because I have plenty of space open.

Just force quit iTunes by pressing option+command+esc. Relaunch iTunes and start the syncing again.

  • ITunes app stuck processing file?

    For awhile now my the iTunes app on my IPod touch
    has been stuck processing a video download.
    Here are the symptoms:
    - Download remains on 'preparing'
    - Not downloading on Wi-Fi network
    - Cannot be swiped to delete ( on or offline)
    - Restarting iPod, iTunes, Apple Sign-In doesn't remove it.
    The only thing I can do with the download is to pause or resume it,
    Which has no effect on it because the stuck file will not download.
    How can remove the file from the download queue?

    I would try downloading on computer and then sync and then delete.

  • ITunes Download Stuck "Processing"

    Does anyone have a suggested fix for a download that's been stuck in "processing" for more than 30 minutes?

    Hey ormana,
    First, try force closing the music app:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.

    If you reopen the app and the song is still stuck, I would reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Downloading app and music on MacBook Pro - stuck processing

    Hey Guys,
    I went into my itunes like usual it started downloading my app purchases that I made on my iPhone. But as it was downloading, it got stuck processing one particular app. I thought it was just overloaded since it was downloading some songs as well, so I left it alone for a few hours. Come back and its still stuck on that one app, and two songs, all saying processing. I tried to pause the download, I tried to delete the app, I tried turning off my wifi to see if it would automatically pause, nothing worked.
    Open to any suggestions or tips, because I honestly have not a clue about how to fix it.
    I currently am running the newest verison of itunes (11.0.4), which I just put on today, which is making me think that could be the cause.
    Really appriciate the help!
    Juliana

    It would help if you were much more informative. Describe in better detail just what is happening. Also tell us the steps that you have taken to try to resolve this yourself.

  • ITunes Match Stuck on stage 3

    Hi All,
    Windows 7, iTunes 10.5.2.11
    iTunes is stuck in iTunes match at stage 3 uploading the 1 of xxxx . Previous to the current problem it ran started uploading but then iTunes Crashed with an out of memory exception. On restart I had to log out and back into my iTunes acount before it wouls start the process again.
    Does anyone have any tips as to how to get around this, any log files I can look at, diagnostics I can run?
    Many thanks all
    Andrew

    I have this problem too, did you manage to resolve it? Mine stops at stage 3 uploading 1 of 950 songs. I sent an email to apple who said it is likely to be my firewall .. i turned off both my firewall and anti-v software to see and it still didn't work.. So far i have tried
    logging and and out of imatch and itunes
    stopping an restarting upload
    re-booting my Internet hub (although i am on 30GB download speed)
    turning off firewall and av software
    I've spent 3 days on this now and am getting a little frustrated

  • ITunes Match stuck on Step 3

    So I started setting up iTunes match yesterday, it took mopst of the afternoon completing steps 1 and 2. When I went to bed it was making slow progres on step three. Whe I woke up this morning it seemed stuck saying it had uploaded 361 of 6310 tracks. It has made no progress from there in the last hour. Any suggestions on what to do now?

    I joined iTunes Match, 5 days ago, everything went well, the matching, the uploading, until I decided to turn off the computer; that was the single biggest mistake!!. Came back a few hours later and the uploading was stuck, took me 1 hour to upload 2 songs vs 4 hours to upload 450!!.
    After reading endlessly in all the forums; I found out the following: It's not your connection, the software or how the songs are ripped or encoded, (believe me, I've tried EVERYTHING, now... never got an error message due to my itunes crashing or my mac). it's the iTunes Match servers fault!! sometimes you are lucky to connect to a fast one, sometimes you're not. So my advice is the following:
    If you are stuck in a very slow upload process (unless, it's a very long song), you need to try again some other time, and don't waste electricity by keeping your computer on for days (like I did). I had mine once on for 24 hrs, and only 70 songs were uploaded (not worth it).  Basically: I tried a different times, and there was the last time I hit the jackpot (when I finished uploading ALL of my music), somehow I connected to a faster server, was uploading over 250 songs per hour, I just left the computer on, until it finished.
    Now... by trying EVERYTHING I mean the following: resetting  my Internet connection a million times, I even increased the speed of with my Internet provider (comcast, blast feature), thinking it was my crappy upload speeds, which of course, didn't help. I created special playlist (like some of forums recommend), to focus on the 'waiting' ones vs the ones that are ineligible, but again, it didn't help,all ********!! I tried converting a lot of my music to iTunes ACC standards, and never noticed a difference, some old MP3 files were uploading at the same speed of ACC ones, so that has nothing to do (in my experience).
    NOW... I recommend you do the following before you join the Match...
    Clean your Music, by cleaning, I recommend you get software to help you with the missing info of the songs, I spent some money and got TuneUp, and that helped me get rid of over 600 songs and cleaned around 4K of my music collection (I have ~12K). Although it wasn't the best software out there, it worked fine with me.
    Interesting fact: when you rip your CDs with iTunes, in some cases, info is missing, so using some software to recognize and fill that info, helps a lot, and the match works better. 
    Get rid of duplicate songs, iTunes does a good job, but other software can help you with that too (see above), also remember to keep the ones with the higher bit rate.
    I noticed that some songs showed the "ineligible" sign, don't worry, try some other time by selecting them, and then click 'match on the icloud' and they will change to "waiting". I think it's a server problem, and it's all about speed.
    At the end I end up with ~2K songs that needed to be upload to the cloud, (I was a little surprised, because it was a mix of mp3, acc and even songs that I bought in iTunes that didn't match). I lived in 2 different countries (with two different languages), and iTunes match was able to find most of my music.
    So at the END my two cents are: try connecting at different times, doesn't matter that iTunes gets stuck doing the 3 steps over and over again, you'll connect to a faster server somehow, for me, the day I hit the jackpot was on a Monday around noon, suddenly the uploading speed went up to the roof!!.
    have a good upload speed day soon!!, may the faster servers be with you !!
    pace!

  • I have problem with syncing in itunes and it stared since i installed new version of itunes.it stuck in backup step for houres.what shud i do?

    I have problem with syncing in itunes and it stared since i installed new version of itunes.it stuck in backup step for houres.what shud i do?

    So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct?  Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order?  Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
    If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe. 
    The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver.  If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details).  When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
    There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
    See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver.  The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

  • When I try to update to iOS5, iTunes gets stuck on "Backing Up" its been there for hours and it barely moves

    When I try to update to iOS5, iTunes gets stuck on "Backing Up" its been there for hours and it barely moves. It finished backing up one then it went to a "Extracting Software" on the iTunes status bar up top and then it gave me an error saying something along the lines of "There was an error with the server" and back to square 1. Ive been trying since the morning and same problem. Always stuck on the backup, help?

    You may have lost your connection to the apple server or connection with your itunes library.
    1) You will need to shutdown Itunes and disconnect your iphone from the USB cable.
    2) Reconnect your Iphone to the usb cable, wait for the device to be recognised and or drivers to be installed.
    3) once all ok, your itunes should automatically open up/connect (if you have this setting set on), otherwise double click your itunes icon on your desktop.
    4) once all sychronised and connected. go to Summary tab and UPDATE your iphone again.
    Hope this works for you, as this happend to me and tried the above steps and wala!!! all good.
    If the above still fails, restart your pc/apple and turn off/on your modem and then try again.
    this normally happens if your connection from your device to the itunes hangs or looses its connection, or have a bad connection to the internet / apple server.
    in windows the RPC Locator is normally the cause of this, in apple i have no idea (as im not an apply user).
    Give it a shot!
    if this helps you and works ...why not rep/like my response up!

  • Everything is updated!!  iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro...  All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices.  iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time!  What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!

    Everything is updated!!  iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro...  All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices.  iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time!  What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
    Why does iTunes SUCK??
    1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
    2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
    If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
    I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
    Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
    If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
    This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
    Please tell me I am not the only one!!
    ...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
    Very appreciated,
    Joe

    sfc /scannow
    let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.

  • Stuck processes indicating hard disk problems?

    I have had trouble with "stuck processes" on my mini 10.5.3 server since it crashed after a Retrospect back up a month ago and found an interesting piece of data this am:
    Using a recycled usb connected hard drive connected to the mini server, Retrospect running on the mini was able to back up its own hard drive at only 18 mb/min while it was able to back-up a remote wired ethernet connected intel iMac hard drive with 160GB at 350mb/min to the same usb device on the mini. Odd!
    The disk on the mini passed all the tests I was able to run on it with DIsk Utility.
    The unix command "top" shows stuck processes sometimes climbing to 30 or more before dropping back down again. When the # of stuck processes climbed, the back-up of the mini's own hard drive would freeze, but it had no effect on the backup of the ethernet connected device.
    Seems to suggest that there is a problem with the mini's internal hard drive. It is less than a year old so it is still under warranty. I am not eager to take the server down unless I have to. Log files have not been helpful. No unusual data has been written to the files during freezes. Is there a piece of software out there that will allow me to do a more thorough test of the drive? I am not sure how to proceed. Any help would be welcome.

    You are welcome.
