  • IMac freezes when changing the screen saver

    Hi all:
    I originally posted this in the "Using Mac OS X" forum (iMac freezes when changing the screen saver, but thought I'd post here as well since the issue arises on a freshly installed OS.
    We've got three 350MHz slot-loading G3 iMacs (with 512MB RAM) which we're planning to use for basic word processing. The install of Panther (10.3.5 from black retail cds with 10-seat volume license) went fine on the first two. Ran the updates to 10.3.9, installed MS Office 2004, everything working great (they're a little slow, but after all, they are only 350 MHz).
    On the third, the first problem we noticed was the computer would lock up whenever we changed the screen saver from the default (Flurry; Computer Name also works). It continues to do so even after: repair permissions; repair disk; Disk Warrior; reset pram; reset nvram; reset pmu; change RAM; change hard drive; erase hard drive; write zeros to hard drive; reinstall with different set of retail CDs; trash preferences, and delete cache files. (If there's anything I've left out, it's in the other thread).
    Now we've noticed that we can't create any new user accounts. We've thought about putting this one in production, just warning the user that they can't change the screen saver, but god only knows what will turn up next.
    I'm starting to think it's a logic board issue, but could it be that selective? And would you see the same problem with another hard drive and different install discs? Am I missing something?
    BTW, there's a crash log with the other thread.

    I'm going to mark this one as answered.
    I removed the hard drive from the iMac, and put it into another 350 MHz iMac, and everything works great. I can select any screen saver without having it freeze, create new accounts, whatever my little heart desires.
    In checking the history of the problem iMac, there was an assortment of problems with booting (both from the hard drive and from the CD-ROM drive) which were never satisfactorily resolved. The problems just seemed to go away after sitting unplugged for a few days, as much as for anything we actually did to it.
    Now we just have to decide whether it's worth fixing, or using it somewhere in a non-critical role with OS 9 installed.
    Cheers,

    kaeandcolesmon,
    If you open the recovery drive (partition) it should only have a single folder (Recovery).
    To make sure that your not saving restore points to that drive.
    See:
    Start, Control Panel, System, System Protection tab. Make sure the D drive partition is set to OFF so that it does not save there.

  • ITunes 10.3.1 freezing when adding new tracks (library located on external HD)

    Installed the new iTunes 10.3 beta earlier and tried to add new songs into my library. However, it takes approx 30 mins to add 4 songs and sometimes it simply won't even add and just freezes. I tried updating to 10.3.1 and the problem persists. I haven't seen anyone post this problem, the closest I have found are others' iTunes freezing when syncing with iOS devices. I'm not sure if it makes a difference but my library is located on an external HD and the option to "Copy to iTunes library" is ticked. However, I doubt that's the main problem since if I actually wait it out and add only 1,2 songs at a time it still works, although it just takes a random amount of time to add (5+ minutes per song).
    I'm hoping someone has a solution or can identify this as a bug? I've been considering downgrading to iTunes 10.2.2 so I can actually add songs to my library (but can't seem to find a link anywhere to 10.2.2). If someone could provide a link to 10.2.2, it would be incredibly helpful as well. Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    finally worked! I found this post and it has finally worked I understand it is the same as WHATHECK's answer so thanks WHATHECK!
    You have to be certain that you have backed up your Library's and Playlists and that you are doing the one in the root (if like me you use a HD any old library/playlists instead of deleting them put them some were safe just incase and make sure you are re-creating the library from your root folder i.e user/music/itunes

  • ITunes 11.2.1 freezes when I connect my iPhone 5. 'Application not responding'

    Hi,
    Recently I upgraded Mavericks. Since then I cant sync my phone anymore. iTunes works fine untill I plugin my phone. Then the spinwheel comes up and stays there forever. In dock it says 'Application Not Responding'.
    iPhone 5, iTunes 11.2.1, Macbook Pro 10.9.3 2.6 GHz 8Gb
    Does somebody can help me out? That would be very very nice!

    Hi BlackNikes
    I had exact same problem, but have now resolved it. If your problem is the same as mine your SyncServices folders have been corrupted while itunes was updated.
    See my post or spyder683 post at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6223064?start=60&tstart=0
    I am running Mavericks 10.9.3 and updated itunes to 11.2.0 and then experienced problems with itunes crashing, 11.2.2 didn't resolve the problem. I found iTunes worked fine if all my other devices (iphone, ipad, ipod) were turned off, as soon as I powered any one of them up and itunes detected them over wifi or USB itunes then froze with the dreaded colored ball spinning.
    In Mavericks 10.9.3 the SyncServices folder is not visible going into the normal library/Application support folder, your instructions below took me to a different area in the system, or at least made these folders visible. Following your instructions I was able to locate and delete both SyncService & SyncServices folders and I launched iTunes again while my devices were powered up and the issue has gone. Bliss!!!
    Many Thanks

    Hi Culero,
    The fix of deleting the SyncServices folder is for Mac systems. From your desktop / finder, click the "Go" menu at the top, then "Go to Folder ..." Paste this into the field: ~/Library/Application Support
    The SyncServices folder should be in there. I had both a SyncService and a SyncServices folder. The second one should, when deleted, help with the problem you and I both had of iTunes freezing when an iOS device is plugged in.
    Hope this helps

  • ITunes 10.3.1 freezes when I try to delete files I have ripped from my own CDs.

    I am in the process of updating a number of CDs that I ripped at 128kbps with rips at 256kbps.  When I delete the 128kbps files most of the time iTunes 10.3.1 freezes with the spinning beach ball.  The files are in the trash but I have to force quit iTunes.  When I restart iTunes, the deleted files are still visible and playable and I can know delete these without any issues.
    I have tried turning off my external OWC Mercury Pro Blu-ray/DVD/CD burner but this has no effect.

    I have the same issue.  I took it the genius bar and called talked to tier 2 phone support. They have standard thing where you uninstall all apple software in a certain order and then reinstall 64bit itunes.  That did nothing (tried it 4 times).
    I've gotten two clues so far.
    One is that at the store if I plug someone else's iphone 4 in then itunes acts the same way. So it is not the phone. Two is tier 2 phone support told me to try syncing it with a fresh user account (an admin one). I did that and itunes was just fine, it did not freeze.
    So there appears to be some conflict with the software, music files, whatever that is on my current user account (also an admin account).  I ran virus and malware detectors and found nothing.  Now I'm going to try putting my music, movies, apps, etc in the new user account and see if the phone will sync then.
    I know its not much but thats where I'm at. I hope it helps.

  • ITunes 10.7(21) freezes when iPhone 4 (iOS 6) plugged in

    Hello,
    Since the latest iTunes update to 10.7, I can no longer plug in my iPhone, iPod without iTunes freezing. iTunes stops responding, and the only way to get out of it is to force quit.
    This occurs accross two 21" iMacs, one running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and one running Lion. All iDevices are up to date. iPhone 4 running iOS 6. It's an older iPod shuffle, but it worked and sync'd just fine up until the latest iTunes update.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Itunes 12.1.2 freezes when detecting iPhone in windows 7

    Hello!
    I've just reformatted my laptop and installed windows 7 home.
    did all the windows update, downloaded the latest iTunes 12.1.2 from Apple site.
    installed successfully. and is able to launch and play music. i've added in only one song to the library to just test.
    Here's the problem i'm facing now.
    - iTunes freezes if i tried to going to preferences via Edit > Preferences.
    - iTunes freezes when my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1) is plugged in. the iPhone appears under my computer, but iTunes is unable to detect/freezes.
    tried these methods
    - iTunes: May become unresponsive when connecting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    - re-installing iTunes multiple times, restarted my iPhone multiple times
    - running iTunes on safe mode, but i doubt this will make any difference since there are no plugins installed.
    - phone does not have any podcasts/videos
    - tried running iTunes in compatibility mode
    - cable used is original apple cable
    - created another windows user account, same problem persist.
    - tried all 3 USB ports
    - uninstalling apple device drivers and installing
    - tried to revert back to iTunes 11.4 or older iTunes 12 version, but encounter installation errors with Apple Mobile Device.
    findings
    - iTunes 12.1.2 is able to detect my phone on windows8.1 (office machine)
    - able to access iPhone under my computer to retrieve images/videos
    - able to charge iPhone via USB
    - running iTunes diagnosis states that iTunes is unable to detect any iPod/iPhone/iPad when my iPhone 6 is plugged in
    - using iTunes with iPhone had been no issue before the windows re-installation with iTunes 11.4 (if i never remembered the version wrongly, it's the red icon iTunes)
    - Apple mobile device is working fine when i've checked under services.
    - Under device manager, the apple mobile device is shown up in the USB list
    would be grateful for any help! been trying to get this fixed to do a backup and sync my other stuffs.
    thanks in advance!

  • Trying to update iTunes, the installer keeps freezing at 'Running iTunes Installer Scripts'.  i've tried several different versions of iTunes and can't install any of them.  I'm stuck with Version 4!!  Help!

    I'm trying to update iTunes on my mac (Power Mac G5 running tiger), but it always freezes at 'Running itunes installer script'.  I have tried a few different versions of iTunes, but I have the same problem with all of them.  I'm stuck on version 4 (which came with my os discs)!  Help?! 

    Ok, First this link should solve the windows scripting host error. I used "Download windows script host" in a google search and it was the first hyperlink.

    I'm assuming you are trying to run the installer from apple. What I would suggest is you download the installer manually to your desktop then launch the installer. If try to run the installer over the intertubes you may run into a problem like you did.
    Then I would uninstall itunes 8 and any software associated with it like the apple update software, quicktime, apple mobile device support. However uninstalling itunes should remove any additional software it installs. Then clean out your temp folder:
    6. Clean out your temp folders,
    a. C:\windows\temp (if one exists)
    b. C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Local Settings\Temp
    Sometimes installers will pick up old files or won’t delete their temporary files.
    Then with a newly download installer on your desktop try launching it. Let me know if that helps.
    Here is an apple doc that help.

  • Itunes 10.2.2 Freezes when trying to Sync

    After upgrading to ITunes 10.2.2.14 I can no longer Sync myIPOD Touch.  I have a third generationIPOD Touch 60GB.  ITunes recognizes my IPOD, but when it gets to Step 4 of 4 it freezes.  I had to restore the IPOD (on a differentcomputer) and in doing so I have the most up to date IPOD software as well.  I have tried multiple USB ports, multipleIPOD cables (all Apple brand).  I deactivated my wireless card, unplugged the LAN cable, unplugged all other USB devices and turned off my anti-virus software, nothing is working. 
    Additional details are that I use a PC with Windows XP withall the updated service packs.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    I am having the same EXACT problems you are.  I have the 32g itouch and it just freezes on the last step of "syncing".  I also have an XP computer (third service pack installed) and everything had been running fine until just about a month or two ago.  I had to restore my itouch on my sisters computer 2X already (not mine, it doesnt work).  All my apps were loaded fine, then it couldnt load my music.  I restored my itouch again, then on the initial setup I unchecked to sync music and apps.   On the last step of  "syncing", it just freezes. Tried the different USB ports, making sure all things are up to date, turning off the firewall etc. but nothing works.  I would hate to buy a new itouch and have the same problem happen to me again.  Hopefully somebody has a solution.  Just a FYI, my 8g ipod still has NO problem syncing my new music I purchased recently...  

  • Itunes 11.1.4 freezes when syncing with iphone

    Hello Zach,
    It sounds like you are getting this error message when connecting your phone after a recent update. I recommend the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get a resolution:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Start with the first steps to test iTunes in Safe Mode, and if needed, there is additional troubleshooting therein.
    Start iTunes in Safe Mode
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    Click Continue.
    See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • With iTunes 10, Computer Still Freezing When Podcasts are Downloading

    For the last several versions of iTunes, my computer has been slowing down a LOT while podcasts are downloading, especially when a new iT version is first installed. Then things improve over time. Now, with iTunes 10.1.1.4, it's horrendous. ITunes takes forever to open, and then causes my computer to become completely unresponsive. It doesn't respond to mouse or keyboard inputs, so I can't minimize it or shut it down.
    Sometimes when that happens, I can't even open Task Manager, but when I can, it indicates that iTunes is using between 95 and 98% of CPU. In that circumstance, I can't even shut down iTunes with TM. After 15 or 20 minutes and all the podcasts have downloaded, I'm able to use my computer again, even with iTunes open.
    It happens with all podcasts, but obviously it's more of a problem when a big pcast is downloading.
    Today, I got the famous blue screen of death. All my programs had frozen and I was trying to shut down iTunes. The blue screen said "kernel data inpage error," whatever that means.
    With past versions, I've tried uninstalling and re-installing iT, but that has not helped.
    All my other programs are working fine. Today I ran CCCleaner, AdAware, RegCure and Malware Bytes, but nothing changed. My McAfee anti-virus max scanning time is 10 seconds.
    Any idea what could be going on here? Or how to begin troubleshooting this mess?
