Quicktime hangs in all possible manners (iTunes, Quicktime, Browsers)....
....when trying to view any sort of video.
Whenever I
Don't take this the wrong way but I've tried every possible thing to fix this error except reverting to previous versions of iTunes and Quicktime and I'm pretty tired and frustrated in dealing with this. The problems started happening when I upgraded iTunes to the latest version.
What happens is whenever I play a video in iTunes, QuickTime, or a Browser (IE, Firefox, Opera, or Netscape) the first frame of the movie will appear and whatever program that is playing the movie will hang until I kill it in the task manager. I've tried just about everything in the forums or the Apple tech articles and nothing has worked. So oh apple gurus get ready for a tough one. Are ya up for the challenge?
Thanks in Advance

Is it possible for itunes on my MacBook Pro to play songs off my networked Western Drive external hard drive so I can sync to my Mac to my iPhone? I do not want to keep any music on my laptop and I don't want to pay $25 to itunes match a year to access my songs if I don't have to.
Hi turingtest2,
Thank you for replying. I've been looking at your posts about setting up iTunes using an external drive. A bit of background info. My old computer broke down, so I got a new one from work. I've always kept my music files on my external drive (I have around 170GB of music). I didn't follow the suggestions in the "migrate iTunes library" post because my old computer died on me. However, I've looked at your posts about lay out of the iTunes folders. Before connecting to iTunes on the new computer, I had reorganized my iTunes folder on my E: external drive, and created an iTunes folder which contains an iTunes Media subfolder. The music files are in a Music folder, which is in the iTunes Media folder. I've also put the following files in my iTunes folder: iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Library Extras.itdb, iTunes Library Genius.itdb, iTunes Music Library.xml, as well as sentinel. I then followed the advice you gave bmw99 on 2 Nov 2013 at 9.58 (sorry, can't copy the exact answer).
Just to clarify: I'd like to keep all my music media on the E: external hard drive (the computer hard drive is too small), and I'm aware i might never have my playlists back, and that all the songs in my library might be ticked. However, I don't want my library to be duplicated.
I'm at work at the moment, but will be back home in about 10 hours, so I can be more specific about folders / files names.
I'm glad you picked up my message and greatly appreciate your help.

All songs in itunes not playing
A few real bad problems here!
1. I am running Itunes 12.0.1.26 on a PC with Windows 8.1 it's a Dell.
*after almost a year of trouble recovering all of my playlists that had gone missing due to an itunes error I was happy to find myself two days ago with itunes operational...all of my 10s of 1,000s of songs listed properly and all of my playlists appearing fine. Every song was there...itunes knew the location of each song.
BUT, now whenever I click on ANY song, itunes doesn't play it(I neither hear it nor does it appear in the top bar with the timeline moving)...this goes for ALL SONGS IN ITUNES - purchased from itunes, imported into itunes, other formats, same problem in all cases.
What I can tell you: The computer is authorized, this is not just an audio problem(system sounds is fine, headphones are fine, other programs sound is ok).
the only other thing I can say is that in recent months I get this error every single time I open ITUNES:
itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration -
I click out of it and everything works fine, for months. I looked up how to resolve that error message appearing here and deleted quicktime and reinstalled. That is the only other recent change I have made here?
I would really , really appreciate any help on this! So frustrated with the volume of itunes errors...if this doesn't work I am going to take a week off from work and move my library to Google play or other! Thanks, PJHi pjholt,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with iTunes; I know how frustrating that can be, especially if it was working fine just a short while ago. If none of your music is playing in iTunes, but you are not getting an error about iTunes being unable to locate the files, you may have an audio configuration issue (which would also support the error message you had been seeing). If that is the case, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

What was the exact error message you received? When you removed and re-installed iTunes, did you use the precise instructions in this Apple support document to walk you through the process?

IPhone 4s (7.0.2) hangs at 'Syncing Contacts' with iTunes 11.1
There seems to be a myriad of these various syncing issues posted; none of which have been answered and none that are exactly what I'm experiencing.
My wife's 4s (iOS 7.0.2) has been hanging at syncing Contacts on iTunes 11.1 (iMac; Mountain Lion) the past several days. It never gets past "Syncing Contacts".
Doesn't anyone have any advice. I've hard re-booted her iPhone; re-booted the iMac.
We don't have this problem with either my iPhone 5 (7.0.2), her 2nd-gen iPad or her old iPot Touch.
We share the same contacts and calendars across all of these devices and the iMac.May have solved it so am posting back.
I had tried several times to sync the 4s after turning off the syncing of 'Contacts' (but telling iTunes to "retain" the contacts that are on the phone and NOT delete them). That managed to get through all other sync stages. However it still wouldn't sync completely; again hanging at 'Syncing Contacts' whenever I would turn that feature of the sync process back on.
Just this morning I opted to Repair Permissions on the iMac's hard drive. I noticed severl repairs made to iTunes-related files' permissions.
Tonight on the first try, the 4s synced trouble free. -
i am facing a real trouble to use British Library apps , i have done all possible ways to rectify but invain. i bought one month subscription as well.
Well I got something going on here. I opened Parallels > Windows 7. Turned on and registered iTunes in Windows. It asked for an Airplay pin number. I put one in and I was able to pull up my iTunes library. But the one in Windows was empty, so I dragged about a dozen movies over from my iMac iTunes into the movie library of the Windows iTunes. And then I could watch the movies on my TV using ATV from Windows. For the next couple of hours I kept messing with both iTunes, loosing Apple TV connection to my computer a couple of times. Now, in order to see my IMac iTunes library, I have to open my iMac iTunes program, then open Parallels>Windows7>iTunes in order to view the videos in my iMac iTunes folder. What is this all about? Pretty convoluted way to see a movie.
Also, I cannot figure out how to see my iMac desktop (or drives) on Parallels, so I really don't understand the connection with the two iTune libraries. Both Libraries do show up on my TV under Apple TV> Computers.
When I open the Windows iTunes windows, a SHARED section opens up in my Imac iTunes, on the sidebar. When I close the Windows iTunes Window, it goes away. How can I get it to stay on, without using the Windows partition?
Why didn't the iMac iTunes ask for an Airplay pin? What is that?
Didn't remember seeing anything like this in the Apple Support Communities. -
Getting all possible ordering of vector
hello
I need to find all possible order of a set of vector I mean if I have the following:
0
1
2
all posssible would be:
0 1 2, 1 0 2, 2 1 0, 1 2 0, 2 0 1, 0 2 1
I have tried to use the swap but I didn't get all possible set
I have used the following code:
Code:
for( int x=0;x<vector.size();x++) {
for ( int w=0;w< vector.size();w++){
Collections.swap(vector, x, w);}}
as I said before the swap method didn't provide me the result I want

Sorry I had to wait a few days to do this for you. Here is a "very creative" solution:
... (code snipped)If by "very creative" you mean "incorrect" or at least "convoluted", then you're right.As I always ask questions, I watch for any chance to contribute to the forum. But as I don't have confidence and knowledge, I only post info I read in a book or google, and code that compiles/works correctly. As far as I can test, my code works correctly.
I was inspired by a "very creative" way to calculate "pi" using a circle in a square and random numbers. With modern processors, knowing where to start and end is sometimes enough. Let my CPU tear into the problem, keep guessing to get "pi" to infinite precision, let the computer keep guessing until the requested collection of Vectors is found. While not AI, I find elegence in this approach.
P.S.
if(!used.contains(rnd)) {
used.add(rnd);
v.add(rnd);What's the point of both "used" and "v" containing exactly the same set of values? One of these is redundant.
And have you heard about Random.nextInt(int n)?I just know very basic APIs (thats why I hang-out only on "New to Java" forum). As you told me: "Set<Integer> used = new HashSet<Integer>();" was not needed.
And a special "thank you" goes out to you for trying to do a lazy bum's homework for him/her. May you end up "working with" such a person.ok, but I warned that my code is "proof of concept" and I said I wrote it just for fun, and it works correctly.

How to redownload all music from itunes
I have a windows vista laptop and a 4th gen ipod. I have made about 100.00 worth of music purchases on itunes and today I was trying to clear disc space on my laptop and deleted all of my music. I opened itunes and tried to redownload the music that I had previously purchased and it is showing as "DOWNLOADED" and is not allowing me to download onto my laptop again, and I cant transfer to my ipod again.
My question is, Is there a way for me to download my itunes music back onto my laptop? If so, How do I do this?The first thing you can do is transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod Touch to your PC. To do this, choose File -> Transfer Purchases in iTunes. You should authorize your new PC before doing this.
For all other content that was not purchased from the iTunes store, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different software available to assist you with this task.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
Finally, right->click on your iPod Touch under the Devices section in iTunes, and choose Backup. Then after erasing and syncing your iPod, restore from that back up. Or better yet, copy a backup from your old PC to your new one if at all possible. Here is more information on backing up and restoring your iPod .

I have all my music on my ipad and icloud. I don't have itunes installed on a PC or MAC. I recently purchased Music Match, but all my non itunes music is on my ipad. When i turn on music match in the settings screen on my ipad i get a message that says all my music will be erased. How do I get music match to match what is there rather than erase it?

My new yahoo account nestles comfortably in iCloud on the mine iPad.
No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do. -
I added a contact to my iphone 4s and when I did a sync manually it is not showing up on my MAC in address book - please help....I checked off sync all contacts in iTunes - does it only work one way from computer to phone?
Is it because the new itunes looks different.

Then it should work just the same as on your old computer. -
I just have just downloaded Mountain lion and I wanted to listen to music on my computer screen with my HDMI cable plug into my back of my screen and I wanted to talk to dictation on my regular standard iPhone headphone and I was wondering if it's all possible change your settings Mac Mini to set it so you can listen to those both like your headphones and use the mic in your headphones and there's no settings that would change in the Mac Mini so do there is a flaw in this system or I am just really really really really dumb.
You computer is probably perfectly repairable, but if you want a new one anyway, it is perfectly possible to transfer the data from the faulty one.
But it would be a mistake to simply put the old HD in the new computer.
These are the steps:
Remove Hard drive from faulty computer. (very easy on Unibody MBPs, do-able but not so easy on older MBPs)
Put it in a cheap enclosure
Connect it the new computer
Boot up new computer.
If the new computer has never been run before the Setup Assistant will ask if you want to import your apps, data, settings etc from either another mac, another HD connected to the Mac or a Time Machine back up.
Obviously chose the second option (another HD connected to this Mac) and follow prompts.
If the new computer has already been run (so Setup Assistant doesn't run when you boot it up), you will need to use Migration Assistant...or run the installer again so that Setup Assistant runs again.
