Same here on my 2.4GHz Core 2 duo 3gb ram iMac...its not the computer problem for any of us just the new itunes is broken i guess
its tv shows though you're right...i find the best thing to do is edit the name (faster with tags) then when you click ok and it finishes, go back and re-edit and change the bulk of the info and it will write the tag fast

Itunes takes too much time to open and don´t recogneize my iphone
itunes takes too much time to open and don´t recogneize my iphone
I´ve alredy unistall and re install and didn´t work5-10 minutes is normal for me when opening iTunes. But then my library is stored on network drive which slows everything down.
There has been many posts about problems with RAID and iTunes. Don't know if any of those relate. -
When I try to open a file with TextEdit, I get the spinning beachball and the file takes almost a minute to open. When I just start TextEdit everything is fine. Also when I log on with another account TextEdit works like a charm, even when opening an existing file.
What I have done so far:
checked permissions in Disk Utility
validated all fonts
deleted all canon printer drivers
deleted all preferences
Nothing has helped. Mail shows the same behavior as TextEdit. What else can I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.drwx------ 2 admin staff - 68 29 Jan 12:16 Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook

Need help. I am running a 27 in imac with 16 gigs of ram. Photoshop runs really fast, except when opening files. It takes 5-10 minutes to open even a small file of 1 meg. I cleaned and validated all the fonts and removed all questionable fonts. Reset preferences and still have problem. Slow to open and in force quit "Photoshop not responding" At this point should I uninstall and start over.
What are the performance Preferences?

Problem description:
(MacBook Pro 15” late 2008, OSX Yosemite 10.10.2 installed, no pending updates) computer is running very slow - takes 2-3 minutes to open apps such as Pages, even when no other apps are open.

Cleaned weekly with Clean My Mac2 and running Sophos AntiVirus. 2GB memory installed. Currently 169.99 GB available of 249.2 GB capacity.

Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.
Memory in the MacBook Air is not upgradable. If that's what you have, you should restore the previous system from a backup, or replace the machine. Ask if you need guidance.
The Etrecheck report clearly shows that SylvieRose has a Macbook Pro, not a Macbook Air and that there are only 2 GB RAM installed. The Etrecheck report can be very informative if one takes the time to examine it.

I recently updated my ITines software to version10 and since the update it doesn't recognise my Iphone/ It also takes 2 - 3 minutes from clicking the icon to firing up the software.
Is anyone else having this problem and how was it resolved?
ThanksActually, Chris, I found that page yesterday on my own doing a search, before I wrote my post. After your instructions didn't work, I found that page and tried deleting the iAdcore.dll and that did not work. When I tried to open it said it didn't have the iAdcore and could not be opened. There was no QTMovieWin there to delete. I again uninstalled everything in the order listed on this new page, because there were 7 things to uninstall (not 5 as your last page suggested). I found that I had iCloud so that was deleted in the proper order. Did not have MobileMe on the computer. Also deleted Apple Application support, which wasn't on your list either. I restarted the computer. I looked for any files on drive C program files as indicated, and did not find any of those files. I went to the iTunes page and downloaded the latest version yet again (maybe the 5th time?). And I got the same notice:
"The iTunes Library.itl cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the iTunes folder in the music folder."
I went to that iTunes folder in the music folder there are a number of iTunes library folders and none of the open except one. The ones that don't open give me the same dialogue box as above. The last folder opens to a page of codes, I guess that's what it is. Gobbeldy gook to me. But that folder is listed at the top in the URL as itTunes Library.xml. I don't see any .itl. Is that the folder I need? And how do I get that??
I don't know if that last paragraph is significant, but I thought I'd include just in case it is.
BTW, can I just download an older version of iTunes? And how can I find it? I still have the old version on my old computer which is at home. Not sure how to get it from that to this one.
Thanks for hanging in there with me. Perhaps there is someone else who could help if you can't figure it out. -
Vista Business: Itunes takes too much time to open
Hey. Okay, this is going to sound strange, but, heres what is going on. Usually when I open itunes, it opens and runs and there is no problem. Occasionally though, it takes it too long to open. By too long, I mean I open it, the process is running in task manager, but for the actual itunes program to open takes around 5-10 minutes. I know it isn't the speed of my computer, I just built a new one (e6600 conroe, 640 gb sata raid, 550 w power supply, 2 gb ram, windows vista business...its fast enough to run itunes), and I know it isn't conflicting with any other program (if I'm running itunes, I'm not usually running anything else). I updated, I've followed all of the usual troubleshooting steps, and I've searched here for a solution, but nobody else seems to be having this problem. I get no error message, and everytime it does eventually open, but honestly I don't like itunes enough to want to wait 10 minutes to use it. Anyone know how I can get this to start working the way its supposed to work?
5-10 minutes is normal for me when opening iTunes. But then my library is stored on network drive which slows everything down.
There has been many posts about problems with RAID and iTunes. Don't know if any of those relate. -
ITunes takes 10-30 minutes to launch.
Every time I try to launch itunes, it shows up whenever it feels like it. It can take up to 30 minutes sometimes. I only have 1,000 songs and 5 or so playlists. Also, another weird thing that happens is everytime, when it finally does show up, i am required to type in my apple id password to "Sign In To Use This Computer for Automatic Downloads". Every. Single. Time. Both of these problems showed up around the same time. I have the latest version of iTunes. My computer has an i7 processor and 8gigs of ram, so I don't think that is the issue. If anyone could help, or offer suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it; as this is very frustrating. Also, once it's open it runs perfectly.
I also I this problem and untill now none of the above fixes solved my isues!
My itunes takes around 10 to 15 min (with itunes process in process manager) to load!
The strange think is that my system doesn't show any "stress" while opening it, the cpu load is fine (around 0% actually) and system memory is around 50% 60%, that is totally normal in my computer with itunes and chrome open.
Please help me this is very annoing, I takes ages to manage my iphone!
I tried booth lauching in itunes safe mode and start with a new library (shift while opening) the itunes still takes ages to lauch!

Applications take 1-2 minutes to open at startup.
Hello,
I've had a problem for a while with my iMac taking 1-2 minutes to open applications after startup.
I then cleared up a lot of hard drive space & installed Leopard--and that seemed to do the trick.
But the problem has come back. Any application takes at least one minute to open properly after the computer is started up (Mail, Safari, iTunes etc)
I am running Leopard 10.5.8 with 2GHz INtel Core Duo & 2 GB 667 MHz Memory.
With 45 GBs of free hard drive space.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,

What video card is your Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit) computer using? NVIDIA GeForce or other?
Please check the Device Manager/Display Adapters to confirm the video card/graphics card and how many cards.
Is the card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
Are you working from a User Account with Administrative Privileges? And, do you have QuickTime (latest version) installed on
the computer with Premiere Elements?
Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
Please consider the above and then we can decide what next.
Thank you.

25MB outline takes 5-6 minutes to open
I have an outline which is 25MB in size. It has 4 base dimensions and 12 attribute dimensions. The largest base dimension has 7 generations and 12,000 members. It takes over 5 minutes just to open the outline, or to associate with a load rule. Is this an unusually large outline? Are there any rules to building an outline that should be followed?Thanks!
Was it built with Essbase Integration Services? We have seen a bug where it takes a while to open certain outlines built with EIS; the 6.5.1 client seems to make these open "normally".Tim TowApplied OLAP, Inc
