Songs load slow since iTunes 9 update
Hi,
All of my music is stored on a 1TB external drive via USB 2.0.
My songs have played perfectly in previous versions, albeit a little bit of lag compared to the local HDD, but still good. Ever since iTunes 9 songs of even 3 minute duration take a good 4-5 seconds to start playing.
Quite annoying, anyone else with this issue?
This is such depressing news - I just downloaded 9.0 hoping it would run faster, not slower! It's definitely down to the size of the library and processor speed.
I have a 1TB external drive filled with music, and it's not really possible to load more than half of that into the library without serious performance problems. On my older Powerbook G4 which I (try to) use as a media machine, plugged into the amp/tv, it's not possible to load more than about 150MB without painful pauses when trying to select and play tracks.
As someone who's always trusted Apple to get things right, this is so confusing and frustrating.
If there's any solution for dealing with large libraries in the pipeline I'd love to hear of it.

Safari slow or won't load pages since recent Safari update.
Safari is slow to load or will not finish loading pages since installing latest Safai update. I have to constantly use the refresh button to finish loading pages. Other browsers work fine. Contacted Apple support, went into safe mode and verified disk and repaired permissions but no improvement. What can I do?
Oh well - they were only the first steps.
Next steps would be:
Finder
Go
Computer
Preferences
SystemConfiguration <--- Copy/Paste this folder onto your desktop and then delete from the Preferences folder
Reboot & Test
Once done, do the following:
Apple Logo
System Preferences
Network
Ethernet / WiFi (Click on whichever method you are using to connect to the internet, on the left column)
Advanced (bottom right)
DNS (Tab)
Left Column, Click +
Add the following numbers: (Click +, type the first set of numbers, hit return. Repeat process for second set)
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Reboot & Test
If the issue is still occuring..
Apple Logo
System Preferences
Users & Groups (or Accounts)
Unlock Padlock (bottom left, with administrator password)
Click +
Change Standard to Administrator
Account Name: Test
Full Name: Test
Password: (leave empty)
Create User
On the left column you will now see 'Test - Admin'
Apple Logo
Log out
Log into 'Test' account
Test to see if your issue with iTunes & Safari occurs in this account and report back..

How do I find duplicate songs which the latest itunes libary update does not show?
How do you find duplicate songs in itunes which the latest updated version of itunes does not show, where the older version did?
=Downgrading from iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7=
Try activating the sidebar, menu bar, and status bar and see if this is close enough to the previous version to make you content. It is easier than downgrading and eventually you will be forced to run a newer iTunes unless you have an endless supply of the model computer you currently own.
You may be able to go back with Time Machine but this may involve restoring other items too (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20441404). Alternatively:
Back up your computer first, in case the unexpected happens.
Quit iTunes.
Get iTunes 10.7 from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576 or the direct download link at: http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
Do a few preparatory steps by making sure all iTunes components are not running and cleaning old files. See https://discussions.apple.com/message/20475394. Do steps 3 and 4. Steps 6-8 may be also useful but I don't know if they are essential. Some of the other steps are not necessary, duplicate steps listed later in my post or are perhaps even unhelpful in the process.
Replace the iTunes 11 application with iTunes 10.7. Simply dragging the application to the trash may not work. Lion (OSX 10.7) and newer systems have iTunes integrated into the operating system and deleting is a bit more involved. Two ways to do this are:
1. (Easier) Use the shareware Pacifist utility (http://www.charlessoft.com/) to install iTunes 10.7 including all associated system files. Details at http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=16400819&postcount=6
2. (More work) Check this reference on how to delete the iTunes application itself:
Delete iTunes in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion - http://osxdaily.com/2011/09/13/delete-itunes-in-mac-os-x-10-7-lion/
After deleting the application there may be other files that need downgrading too. See the note about error -42408 at the end of this post. You may want to tuck these away somewhere safe until you have completed the installation of iTunes 10.7. I have not tested this but ideally if newer versions are not found then the installer will put in the old versions. This may include these files in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ which apparently get updated by iTunes 11:
AirTrafficHost.framework
CoreFP.framework
DeviceLink.framework
iTunesAccess.framework
MobileDevice.framework
After doing one of the two procedures above you will have to rescue the most recent old iTunes library from your iTunes > Previous Libraries folder. Rename it "iTunes Library.itl" and replace the existing one in the iTunes folder. A newer version of iTunes irreversibly updates your library file so you have to replace it with the old one or you will get an error message. Note, this will revert your library to the version at the time of the upgrade and you will have to update any changes made since. See:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20401436 - turingtest2 11/2012 post on rebuilding empty/corrupt library from previous iTunes library file after upgrade/crash.
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
Other issues:
- https://discussions.apple.com/message/20432309 - solution to mobile devices saying they need to be restored after downgrading
- If you encounter error -42408:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297 > Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) - including specific error codes.
Alternatively, check https://discussions.apple.com/message/20441424 which requires you have a Time Machine backup (though possibly if you remove the newer version of these files old ones may be installed with the iTunes 10.7 installer - untested). A variant of this is at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20448184
- Persistent "Show in iTunes Store" arrows after downgrade - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4567064 -
My computer was just updated to a higher speed connection and was doing good speed wise even before. Now it takes forever to load or navigate in all capacities, that is until I got to this site and I can click as fast as I can here and there is no slow down. Will go back to my home page and see how bad it is there. My wife has a Mac laptop and she even said that since the new update, Fire Fox has been running a little weird concerning the opening of a new window unexpectedly. Really want to see if there is anyone else that might be having similar issues with their computers after the new update.
When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

Can't load art since 7.7 update
What a disaster! Right after my update, my external hard drive with all my music died. (I had a pretty good backup so it could be worse.) ITunes keeps crashing or hanging. And now I can't load art when I add new albums. Is there some way to undo all this mess with 7.7?
I've had the same issue with loading art since updating to 7.7.1. Sent a bug report to Apple, so maybe v7.7.2 will solve the issue... Very un-Apple-like.

Song modifications bug since iTunes 11.0.1
Hello,
Since I updated to iTunes 11.0.1 on Windows I have a very annoying bug, that didn't occur in the 11 version. When I am in the "Albums" viewing mode any modification to a song via the "Get Info" option doesn't appear before I click on a different album or click on the same album twice, to close and re-open the view.
The same goes for checking/unchecking songs. If I unckeck a song it won't show up greyed out until I close the album list and re-open it. This is very annoying when listening to a new album and checking/unchecking songs, no way to know if I already checked/unchecked a song unless I get out and back on that album.
I don't have to stop the song or start another one, it seems more like a graphical bug then a info change one, the change is registered but not on the screen until I "refresh" it by closing and opening it again.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks for reading.If you right mouse click on the greyed out song and select Check Selection from the bottom of the list all will be well. iTunes does not play unchecked songs

I had this same issue with Seamonkey. I have about 4700 names in my address book. When replying to an email, or creating a new email, the auto email lookup function is very slow and unresponsive. It will generally take 10-20 seconds before it starts to work. Since the update to ver 31, now all my collected email addresses are coming up all red color. It is like all history is gone. It doesn't recognize that these email addresses are in my address book or something...thank you.
The spurious red addresses is a known bug:

while the slow operation of autocomplete is probably due to a new feature, that may become a bug:

2011 mac mini running crazy slow since last software update
Hi,
Just bought a brand new mac mini about two months age, and since updating to Lion and installing all the updates since, my computer is now running super slow, espacially with apps like launch pad and running safari in full screen. Any suggestions on how to fix this? or anyone know what's causing it? any help would be much appreciated!
2011 Mac Mini (base model), 2011 update 13" Macbook Air, 2010 i5 27" iMac, 16GB iPad 2, 16GB iPhone 4when you run the activity monitor, what processes are consuming your RAM/CPU cycles? Looking at the page ins/outs in the Memory tab wll give you a hint as to whether it's a RAM issue.

Apps are running slow since windows 10 update, facebook, solitaire etc.
Like most people I went through the lengthy process of updating to Windows 10 yesterday. The update went smoothly. The problem I am having is that the embedded solitaire games from the start menu are hanging and running very slow. Also, sad as it sounds, some of the games on facebook are also very juddery and slow. I have checked to make sure I havent got too many things running in the background but nothing changed. Anyone got any ideas?

Track play counts randomly resetting since iTunes 11 update.
Hi,
Just wondering if anybody knows if Apple are doing anything about this issue? I've seen another post on the support community that has a work around, but to be honest, I have no interest in doing some complicated work around that ends up losing anything I've downloaded since the last iTunes Libary file backup (or whatever you have to do). I'm still really struggling to get used to the new iTunes store and overall iTunes layout, however given more time I'm sure I will get used to it (although I'd still rather have the old version back). This play count issue is a real pain though and it only effects tracks bought from the iTunes store.
Anyway, I'll quit my pathetic moaning now in the hope that someone can offer some sort of light at the end of the tunnel.
Cheers,
WiuI'm having the same issue. I have an iPod Classic 120gb with 2.0.1 and iTunes 11.0.1 on an iMac running Mountain Lion 10.8.2.

After I updated I-tunes and the system this morning, flash animations in Safari (specifically Fishworld) run very very slowly. The same program causes Firefox to crash.

Hi there navicin79,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the articles below helpful. The first thing I would try is reinstalling iTunes as outlined in the first article.
