Since updating iTunes my iMac won't behave

Hi ive been led to believe the reason my imac is playing up is because the permissions are wrong on my hard drive. Ive tried to repair these but thy wont refresh . Any ideas.
The original fault is loss of internet connection slow opening of apps and the spinning wheel of death when i try to close the system .

Sure. Since you hadn't reposted, I thought you'd figured it out -- and then when I installed the Apple HP update as well the other day I figured that was that for both of us. It wasn't until I read your new post and actually tried printing that I realized it's not working again for me either.
The good news is that this time the fix was even easier. I just wish I knew WHY it worked.
The first time this happened, I went to System Preferences>Network and turned off Ethernet. Then I turned on Airport. Printing still didn't work. Then I turned off Airport (still in system prefs) and turned Ethernet back on. Then closed system prefs. I can't remember if I actually started to print a new job when all of the previous jobs started printing out, or if they just started on their own.
Today, all I did was turn off Airport in the Menubar. (I don't remember having turned it on, but obviously I did) Then I tried printing a new document (through ethernet) and the earlier document came out followed by the new one.
Based on what happened today, I'd say that for some reason Printing Defaults to Airport and that the HP isn't liking Airport. But that doesn't explain how this happened last week before I'd even configured Airport for the first time.
Please let me know how you do with this. I love that old printer. Good luck!

  • Since updating iTunes and Mavericks, every time I import m4v files into iTunes it renames all the files to "Avidemux". what's gone wrong?

    Since updating iTunes and Mavericks, every time I import m4v files into iTunes it re-names all the files to "Avidemux". what's gone wrong?

    (By the way, would I need to use also the red and white phono cables also to get sound?)
    Yes, S-video cables do not carry sound.
    When you import 16:9 into DV Widescreen, make sure that you have UNchecked 'automatic letterboxing'.
    In Preferences, is the project set to the correct standard?
    29.95 fps = NTSC
    25 fps = PAL.
    BTW, this is actually the iMovie 5 forum, but no matter!

  • Since updating ITunes sofwr some time ago, Used to be able to go to ,"File", "Get Info" and dragdrop my picture into the artwork box,click OK.No longer!Won't save/displayWHY?

    Since updating my Itunes software some time ago, I've not been able to add my own artwork,ie album covers, to my own personal albums.Used to be able to go to "File," "Get Info" and drag/drop my photo into the artwork box, hit save/OK and Voila! No longer and it's Really frustrating. It will let me drag it there but it
    won't save it or display it. (Why they go and break somethin' that was working fine?....just an aside) What must one do now to display their own artwork for albums that are non purchasable online?

    Thanks again. Though I'm not really tech savy, I don't believe this issue has to do with Tags.
    it has everyrhing to do with tags.
    The artwork is stoed in the Artwork tag field.
    Since WAV files do not have tags, there is no where to store the tags.
    If you use iTunes to get artwork for WAV files, it puts themn into the AlbumArt folder adn links it to the correct files via the iTunes library.itl file.
    All other formats (MP3, AAC, AIFF, Apple Lossless) have na artwork tag to store the artwork in the media file itself.
    in the past, to add my own personal artwork,
    Not to WAV files. You must have imported them as a different format.

  • Since updating itunes to version 10 my ipod classic will not sync any new music that I have added to itunes, can anyone help

    I recently updated iTunes to version 10.3.1.55. Since then when I try to sync my IPod classic it says on the top of iTunes (where the barbers pole is) "Step 1of1 Determining Tracks to Sync". This stays like that for about 15 minutes before a message pops up saying "Itunes could not copy ""song title name here"" to the Ipod because an unknown error occurred (-50)". This message pos up for every song title that has been added to itunes since the itunes update. Therefore I am unable to sync any new music. This only happens when syncing the ipod as the iphone syncs with no problems.
    Does any one have a solution?

    There's a good guide here on how to roll back to 10.7 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4559563?tstart=0

  • Updated itunes now it won't open on my computer

    I tried to update itunes so I could sync some music I bought on my computer to my phone, because my phone wasn't letting me download it directly. Now iTunes won't open. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it twice, but each time it will not open. Also, when I'm installing it, it tells me I have iTunes currently running, which I don't.

    I had this and managed to fix it:
    Download iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Open the Terminal
    Run "sudo rm -r /Applications/iTunes.app"
    Re-install iTunes

  • Since updating itunes to 10.1.x downloads went from minutes to many hours

    I have a business class internet service which provides 25 mbps down and over 10 mbps up.
    Before updating to itunes 10.4.x, an HD tv episode would download in a few minutes, always less than 10 minutes.
    Since updating
    1) itunes became unstable and crashed regularly
    2) it refused to play ANY HD video.
    3) downloads from the istore went from a few minutes per episode to many hours
    I did all the normal fixes
    itunes repair
    itunes deinstall and reinstall
    itunes and quicktime deinstall and reinstall
    rebuilt itunes library
    rebooted numerous times
    rebooted cable modem
    checked speed and verified minimum speed out of several tests was 12mbps
    observed download performance in itunes where download started at 2-3 mpbs but rapidly dropped off to 50 - 100 kbps
    monitored network performance and observed that most of the time the itunes client is waiting for inputs from itunes store server.
    Generated a trouble ticket and have been through 3 levels of "go try this" with no improvement.  At the stage where maybe I might get access to an actual support tech.
    I am coming to the conclusion that this is a problem at the source where the server servicing the download is either very busy or slow which is creating a long wait period between packets.  Basically my itunes client is sitting and waiting on the store for 9 hours to perform what used to be a 15 minute download.
    Is anyone else seeing this problem?  Does anyone have a recommended fix? 

    Thank you for your reply. I resolved with advice from 4 year old post instructing "holding down option key while restsrting iTunes and choose the preferred library", but  thank you again,

  • Since updating iTunes, having playback sound issues

    Updated iTunes so that I could install iOS 5.  Now when using iTunes for playback from my library on my iMac the sound is TERRIBLE.  Really low volume, muddy sound.  Volume on everything else is fine, so it isn't a speaker issue.  Volume was fine a few days ago, so I'm assuming that it is an iTunes 10.5 (141) issue. 

    I'm now having the same sound problem with my AAC audiobook files. Couldn't yet sa if it's all the files or just some of the newly imported ones.
    They now playback with noticable aliasing as if their bitrate has been significantly lowered.
    Horrible to listen to music that now sounds like an AM radio broadcast.
    Gonna wait and hope to see if a fix will come this week.
    Also noticed that some of the same type files don't correctly copy into my iTunes library for some reason.
    Goofy,

  • I run windows 7.  Since updating itunes, I have been unable to open itunes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and have chosen to run a administrator.  Itunes icon now displays a shield with yellow

    I run windows 7.  Have been unable to open itunes since updating last week.  I have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled, and have checked run as administrator, but still can no open.  I notice that there is now a shield with yellow and blue squares next to it, that i do not think were there before.

    many thanks, Mary.
    The ModName is ituneup.dll; the modver is 1.0.7.0.
    Do you have the TuneUp plugin installed for your iTunes? If so, I think your copy is causing the issue here. Try the following document:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    ... does that help with the launch errors?

  • Since updating iTunes my new iPod touch 5th generation wont show up.

    I recently updated iTunes on Friday. But now that I try to sync my iPod touch 5th generation it is not showing up in iTunes. The iPod asks if I trust this computer and I click yes but nothing happens. What should I do?

    In case you haven't found this yet... I managed to fix the problem with my iPhones by updating the USB device driver.  The instructions are in this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5822553?tstart=0
    or you can follow this knowlege base article on the Apple site:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    (for me the problem required me following the instructions in the "If only Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod appears" section, but it may be different in your case)
    Maybe Apple updated the USB drivers in this updated version of iTunes?  I'm not sure why the installer failed to install these drivers automatically (maybe that isn't possible??).  Maybe this is just a Windows problem and has nothing to do with Apple?  Who knows...
