Podcast freezes when i open and has to be closed with task manager.

When I click into podcasts, it freezes almost instantly and has to be closed with task manager. I believe the culprit may be a login window that pops up asking me to enter a password for a premium service i once used from a certain podcast that i no longer subscribe to. i've tried going into the system files to delete all the files related to that podast, but it's still on the page. and i  can't remove it from the page because it freezes. Can anyone help?

I've had this issue for months and have received zero response from Apple. Ever since the "upgrade" to 11 podcasts have been infuriating within iTunes.

  • Macbook freezing when left open and untouched

    I have a 6-month-old macbook that has been working wonderfully (besides a glitch that was fixed at the Genius Bar a couple months ago) up until this past week. Recently, whenever I leave my macbook open and untouched for a while, sometimes for just a few minutes, the screen saver will come on like normal. However, when I move the mouse to get back to my desktop, the screen saver disappears and the computer freezes. I don't think I've changed any settings and I can't think of anything that I've been doing differently than before when it worked well. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks!

    Try:
    - 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.
    - 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.      
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • ITunes will not open AND iTunes.exe will not LEAVE Task Manager

    Hello,
    I am also having the same issue with everyone else in that iTunes will not open. This happened to me about two weeks ago and I uninstalled and reinstalled the version that came with my iPod. I figured that after a couple of weeks Apple would have figured out the glitch and fixed it. Wrong. B was asking another user if iTunes.exe was appearing and then disappearing in the Task Manager. I am having the oposite issue in that I cannot End Task in the Task Manager on iTunes.exe. What is up? Can anyone help me? Thanks for the support!

    hi bummed! (you do realise that you're stuck with that alias for the forseeable future, don't you?)

    hmmm. if that's going on, then we'd better check up on these two possibilities first:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302775

    keep us posted.

  • Whenever I shut down iTunes on my computer, it keeps reopening and I have to go into Task Manager and end the process in order for it to stop doing this. I am running it on a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit machine.

    Whenever I shutdown iTunes on my computer, it keeps re-opening and I have to go to Task Manager and end the process in order for it to shutdown.

    Do you have Logitech gaming software installed on the PC? If so, perhaps try the suggestion from the following post:

  • My adobe acrobat XI Pro has been constantly freezing when I open documents.

    My adobe acrobat XI Pro has been constantly freezing when I open documents. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program, changed some settings based on community threads, nothing is working. I have to close the document, open it back up and wait at least 60 seconds before I can do anything. I use Adobe pdfs for everything this is very bad. I am using MS Office 365, and Adobe CC on Windows 8.1.

    Hi Kate,
    Please refer to this KB doc. for the solution Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon

  • Snow leopard freezes when I open Itunes

    I have a a Mid 2007 iMac, 20" screen 4 Ghz memory, 250 HD that originally came that with 10.4.10 that I have upgraded to 10.6.3. The computer would freeze up on me occasionally on start up. but pmce rebooted it would run fine. However, the freezing became more frequent to the point that I ran a hardware test first, which it passed. I re-imaged the imaged the machine with the original 10.4.10.  The computer did not freeze when I opened Itunes, however, when I put 10.6.3. the computer is freezing when I open Itunes.

    I think you might be a bit confused. You can update from 10.6.3. to 10.6.8 without cost, and indeed running software update should have done that for you.
    There is no issue with running iTunes on Snow Leopard (10.6.x). If you're having problems, the most likely explanation is that you have some 3rd party software that is causing the issue. In order to determine what that is the first thing you should do is remove everything from your login items and then restart the mac.
    To remove your login items, go to
     > System Preferences > Accounts | Login Items
    Select everything in the Login Items list and hit the minus '-' button underneath the login items list. Do NOT check the 'Hide' button. That has no effect.
    After clearing the login items list, restart your mac and test to see if the problem remains. If so, post back and we''ll do the next step.

  • What's happening when Word opens and saves a document?

    Hello,
    I got very unspecific question, but I don't know where to start. I have an open xml document which gets generated by a third party tool. If I open the document using open xml sdk it looks VERY different from how it looks like when I opened and saved it before
    using Word 2013.
    I'm trying to get an understanding on whats Word doing! From what I've seen it's doing some remodelling on the xml file, since it looks very different (other and way more descendants than before) and I would like to achieve the same thing using open xml.
    Although this might be already to much information: The generated word documents contains html code with links to pictures. After Word has touched the file the picture is inside a drawing element, before it's not but in Word both versions look the same.
    I'm thankful for any help you can give me.
    Cheers Andreas

    Hi Cheers Andreas,
    >> If I open the document using open xml SDK it looks VERY different from how it looks like when I opened and saved it before using Word 201
    >> What's happening when Word opens and saves a document?
    This forum is discussing about Open XML developing. This is not exactly an OpenXML SDK questions. To be frank, I do not know exactly what Word opens and saves a documents either (this is the implementation details of the product).
    If you are interested on it, the forum below might be more appropriate for you:

    >> From what I've seen it's doing some remodelling on the xml file, since it looks very different (other and way more descendants than before) and I would like to achieve the same thing using open xml.
    What do you mean by “other and way more descendants”? Do you mean that you want to add new nodes in the xml document? In my option, different objects in word have different nodes. You could refer the link below for more information about Word processing.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/library/office/cc850833.aspx
    If you have issues about OpenXML SDK, since it is a new issue which is different from your original issue, I suggest you post a new thread for the new issue in this forum. Then there would be more community members to discuss the question.

  • My mac keeps freezing when i try and print anything from preview. any ideas as to what the issue is or how to fix it?

    my mac keeps freezing when i try and print anything from preview. any ideas as to what the issue is or how to fix it?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

    ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Show Info
    from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
    Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
    In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
    What is the Modified date?
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

  • HT4759 I just got a new IPAD and transferred everything through the cloud from my old IPAD2. The new one says "this IPAD is currently being restored. It has been that way for about 2 hours. Also, I books will open and then close right away with no content

    I just got a new IPAD and transferred everything through the cloud from my old IPAD 2. The new one says "this IPAD is currently being restored. It has been that way for over two hours. Also, I Books opens and then closes right away with no content. Does it take this long, or is there an issue?

    I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

    Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.
