Since the latest iTunes update it takes hours just to update a single app. Never did that before. Why is it doing that now?

Since I update itunes to this latest version I have been having a problem updating my apps. It takes hours just to update a single app. Whats up with that?

Hi henry1963,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like your are correct and shuffle is turned on in iTunes. Please use the following article as a reference for turning shuffle off.
iTunes 11 for Mac: Ways to play songs
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12131
You can play music in iTunes in various ways.
Shuffle or repeat songs
Do any of the following:
Turn shuffle on or off: Click the Shuffle button. Shuffle is on when the arrows are blue.
Shuffle albums or groupings: Choose Controls > Turn On Shuffle > “by Albums” (or “by Groupings”). iTunes plays the songs in the order in which they appear on the album or in the grouping, and then chooses another album or grouping at random.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

Since the latest itunes update, my itunes won't recognise my ipod

Since the latest itunes update, my itunes detects my ipod nano (7th generation), but says it can't be identified properly. However, my older ipod nano (4th generation) fine. Does anyone know what this could be? I've re-installed itunes already and followed the troubleshooter.

The later nano may require more power when connected, to operate and charge its battery, compared to the older nano. It's possible that your computer's USB bus may not provide sufficient power, if you have other devices connected at the same time.
As a test, I would shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices (including hub), except for standard keyboard and mouse if normally used. Do this to Reset the iPod

Start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect the iPod to a direct USB port on the computer. Is there any difference regarding this problem?

Since the latest ITunes update, I cannot find all the CD songs I converted to ITunes. All it shows are the songs I purchased.

Hello jerryfromil,
I've found an article that may help get your content back into iTunes.

TS1363 Since the latest iTunes update (on Win8 PC), none of my apple products will sync: iPhone 5; iPhone 4s; iPod Nano 6; iPod Nano 7

The iPhones are recognized by the computer (and can backup to the cloud), but on connection, nothing happens with iTunes.
With the iPods I get the not-very-helpful message:
iTunes
An iPod had been detected, but could not be identified properly.
Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again.
blah, blah, blah.
On clicking More Info, I am presented with 10 steps to take.
I have done every single one of these steps, with the following added bonuses: each time I have carried out any of the steps, I have disconnected the device; disconnected the leads; turned off the device; I have also uninstalled iTunes and installed 'the latest version'; I have restarted the computer, connected the device with brand new cables (the iPods require two different Apple cables: have tried both old and new versions of each).
Nothing I can do will make iTunes want to talk to these devices. It all worked perfectly up until the latest v. of iTunes.
I am perfectly prepared to insert a new HD into the computer, build a new version of the station (either Win8, Win7, XP .... even Vista to make my day even worse), but feel that this is a little extreeme!
Am I alone in this Apple-strewn myre?

I kept working at this after posting. On the sync page for the ipod on itunes library I chose to remove the iPods association with my old computer. It erased all the old content from the old computer and then put all my checked songs from the new computer on my iPod nano.

Since the latest itunes update, how does one refresh available podcasts?

there used to be a refresh button at the lower RH corner of my podcast list window, that's gone, also the "cloud" symbols that used to alert me to avaialble podcasts that hadn't yet been downloaded to itunes on my Macbook. I dont'e see as many podcasts as usual during my weekly download to update my ipod. How do I manually do a refresh?

HT201210 Has anyone else received a -39 error since the new itunes update?

Since the latest itune update, I have completely lost all my uploaded audio books. When I try to restore from my ipod I get error -39. Has anyone else had this issue?

I have no idea which password you mean. Your phone's password? Your Apple ID password? Your iTunes Store password? The Backup encryption password? It is impossible not to have an Apple ID password or iTunes Store password. They are usually the same, but don't have to be.
If you need the backup encryption password it is cretain that you entered it, but it may have been a long time ago. It is prompted the first time you back up after checking "encrypt backup" in iTunes, and can also be required by your IT Administrator if you have a corporate MS Exchange email account on your phone. It is never again prompted until you need to restore from the encrypted backup.

TS1368 I downloaded the latest ITunes update, 10.6 I think. I can still sync my Ipod, but I can no longer access the Itunes Store. No error message, it just keeps "accessing" but nothing shows up. I've restarted my computer twice.

I downloaded the latest Itunes update, 10.6 I think. I can still sync my Ipod, but now I can't access the Itunes Store. There's no error message, it just keeps "accessing" but never completes. How can I fix this?

Ok... I just tried connecting my iPod directly to a USB port on the computer rather than via the USB hub I was using and everything is fine. Odd, but I'm happy now.
Thanks,
Evan

Posts are duplicating like bunnies when I edit them in Posterous since the latest Beta Update??? wtf?

When I go to edit any post on my [http://whatgetsmehot.posterous.com Posterous] blog, the html and media including photos and videos are duplicating like bunnies if i do any editing (like going from rich format to html and back) all since the latest Beta Update??? And after that it will crash because it has multiplied anywhere from 4X to ?X times.
I submitted a crash report today but i didn't save the info
I've, of course, done all the usual (or i wouldn't be here). Cleared Cache multiple times...there were some funky warnings coming from the error page thing about co-something or other and this is what i have tonight: Warning: Error in parsing value for 'background-image'. Declaration dropped.
which i realize is nothing...
I have never heard of this at all.
Btw, I uninstalled all my addons and am running on nothing but what comes with my Windows XP and from FF.
Any thoughts?

Has anyone else had problems since the latest itunes/ipod update?

since i got my ipod and itunes updated, ive had nothing but problems with my ipod. sometimes it freezes, and when i connect it to the computer its all of a sudden corrupted. Sometimes this happens when i connect it to my computer to charge, and gets stuck on the do not disconnect screen. Sometimes ill be listening to music or watching something on my ipod and itll turn off randomly for no reason, then the apple symbol will come on as if i turned the ipod on again. Right now my ipod is frozen on the do not disconnect screen, and i have no choice but to restore it, however it wont even show up on itunes when its frozen sometimes, like right now. Has anyone else had problems since the latest ipod update?

As i've posted in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=746408&tstart=30
I've tried everything others have suggested without any luck.
Now I'm stuck with a 300 bucks mp3 jalopy.
My big question here is :
why aren't we hearing from apple? why aren't they saying something like "yeah we messed things up but be patient. we are trying our best to fix it..." ?
I was thinking to buy the macbook pro but now I'm afraid of the day things will get messy with that too.

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

Since the latest apple update, voice navigation has gone away. Tried the Airplane mode fix, which worked, but now my bluetooth won't work in my vehicle. What's up?

Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply. Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself. I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues.
This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative. This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved. I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question.
BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.} No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you.
So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine.

Hi, i'm having trouble with syncing my iPod. (after the latest iTunes-update)

It's a classic, but I have no idea what generation... but it was bought in early 08, and have 80gb. Anyway, it has been working fine all the time, but by the latest iTunes-update, it has stopped working. (mac) Every time I try to connect it with my computer, iTunes says that "this iPod appears to be destroyed, try to restore" (I'm having iTunes in Norwegian, so not sure if this is the direct translation, but hopefully you'll get the picture) - and I try to do this, again and again, but nothing seems to work. I have tried to turn off the computer, put iPod in disc-mode, let the battery run out, give it a two-week break, and now I'm out of guesses on what to do. But no matter what I do it allways appear to have zero songs on it after I am done syncing, and I allways get the "try to restore"-message when i connect it again.
It's possible that it's just old age or something, but I really want to try everything first, as it seems to be all right otherways. It also works when I connect it with my friend's PC, but since she has ****** taste of music () it's not an option. I have a MacBook, also from 2008.
And just to clearify. I have an iPad2, and an old iPod nano (2006) and both works with my computer/iTunes.

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Since the latest iTunes update it takes hours just to update a single app. Never did that before. Why is it doing that now?
