Settin start/finish times for a video in iTunes, video freezes for while.

This is a problem I had under iTunes 8 and Leopard, and it's exactly the same with iTunes 9 and Snow Leopard. (and was the same with iTunes 9 and just Leopard).
I often "cut" parts of video clips in iTunes, setting a start and finish time so I don't have to see the rest of the video, while not losing it either.
Most of the time, after I set those times, I want to check if my cuts are set right and go back to the video and look at it with the cuts... Well now I can't!
If I click on a video to watch it immediately, or even in the minutes after I made those changes, the video will open, but stay frozen and kinda skip on the same frame over and over (producing digital audio clipping sounds), and whatever I do, trying to FFW or anything, doesn't do anything.
If I open other videos, do other stuff and come back after 10min, it'll be OK, like nothing ever happened, and my new settings will be taken into account.
I can't believe that with a fast MBP, with a iTunes and OS upgrade, this problem continues!
Am I the only one with this bug?
Is this something that could be done?
THanks.

I'm not sure about the error message, but it might just be easier to use an application such as Handbrake or MPEG Streamclip to create an iPod compatible version of the video.

    Tried the un-install and getting the same problem although it takes a bit longer before it crashes this time. Checked the problem report and it looks the same as the previous reports.

  • For restoring from backup itunes is asking for password

    Hi Experts
    for restoring from backup itunes is asking for password and i didn't give any password when backup was going on not even i checked on encrypt my backup.
    please help me ASAP

    See:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3057884
    I too have experienced the "blame everything but Apple products/software" indoctrination of the Apple phone support techs!
    I have a feeling that iTunes automatically switches encryption on and puts as default a previous iTunes store password but as I don't leave mine the same all the time (and don't feel the need to remember historic passwords that I'm not using to secure anything against) I have no clue what it is.
    Good luck trying to get useful advice on here relating to the issue, it will go along the lines of...
    1) Its your fault for setting it and forgetting the password,
    2) We know everything and theres definately no way iTunes would set backups to encrypt without your knowledge and...
    3) Theres no fix for this issue, you might be able to save some of your data, but most will be lost (unless you specifically ask for an iTunes redownload exemption/ token then your purchases could be lost too).
    Welcome to the world of Apple!

    No there's not.  Otherwise that wouldn't be very secure, would it?

  • ITunes movies - 'freeze' for same amount of time I can play??..

    I have a frequent problem with iTunes movies - when I download one from the Store it stops all the time.  I can usually restart it by pressing pause and then play, although sometimes I have to go out of the movie altogether then restart and fast forward to where i was. It is incredibly irritating as you can imagine.  Any ideas?  The amount of time I get to watch the movie seems to relate to the amount of time I have before it of waiting.  Eg if it stops and I restart instantly I only get a minute or so of movie, whereas if I stop the movie and only restart it after five minutes then I seem to get at least five minutes before it stops again.
    So grateful for any help..

  • I can't finish my installation of ISO5 because itunes keep asking for a pass word that doesn't existe

    anyone know how to skip the pass word for the installation of ISO5?

    Hello ozne,
    as a first step please have a look at these "General infos about the Adobe Account"
    https://www.adobe.com/account.html and http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
    Did you purchase your product from these firms like Amazon? If yes, this is not a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
    The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.
    Good luck!

  • When connecting my iphone to the computer all goaes well on the sync (ing) is that when its finished I have a message that itunes is waiting for changes to be applied and the programme will not finish the complete sync!! any answers please.

    When connecting my iphone to the computer, all goes well with the sync until the last step. Step 6. It says "waiting for changes to be applied" and won't complete the sync!! anyone know how to rectify.

  • Downloading video from Itunes keeps freezing my computer.  It worked last night but now today

    last night I downloaded two episodes of Game of Thrones without much trouble.  Today I've tried to download a third episode but the amount of time required goes up instead of down. Eventually, the computer freezes.  I have a PC with Windows 7.

    The easiest way is to restore from your backups. You did make backups of that $5000 worth of purchased music, didn't you?
    If you didn't, then it is possible to transfer your tracks from an iPod back to iTunes. It's been covered here a number of times already, but again:
    First, you need to prevent automatic synchronzation with a blank copy of iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer, click "cancel" when iTunes presents the dialog box offering to synchronize to the iPod. Or hold down the Shift and Ctrl keys in Windows. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
    Then if you're using iTunes 7, you can then copy music that you purchased from the iTunes Store back to iTunes directly. Just use the Transfer Purchases From iPod command under the iTunes File menu.
    If you're not using iTunes 7 or want to copy back other tracks, the easiest way will be to search VersionTracker for "iPod". You'll find a number of utilities that can transfer your tracks and your playlists from your iPod back to your PC.
    It's also possible to do this manually, but the procedure is rather involved. If you're interested, though, see this thread:
    MacMuse: Computer crashed
    Hope this helps.

  • Video in itunes video folder but will not sync to iPad

    So I have a few vidoes in iTunes on my computer, I plug my iPad in, it syncs but only puts files from my iPad to the computer.  It will not go the other way.  It does not look like it put music i bought in itunes on my computer either.  Anyone know why?   So it is missing stuff both ways... I am logged in and all that.  Have not synced to anything else except backing up to iCloud. 

    In order to move purchased content from the iPad into iTunes, connect the iPad to the PC, launch iTunes and right click on the iPad name on the left side under devices and select Transfer Purchases.
    In order to sync the Videos to the iPad you have to select them to sync to the iPad in iTunes. While connected to the PC and with iTunes running, select the iPad on the left side, click on the Movies Tab in the window on the right, click on the Sync Movies Heading, select each video that you want to transfer and then click on Apply in the lower right corner.
