Start to import, but it slows then stops halfway through one song

That's pretty much it. I put a (non-burned) CD in my disc drive, hit 'Import' and it starts to import it into iTunes, but then it slows and then stops importing. Then, when I try to stop it from importing, iTunes freezes and I have to force it to quit.

I have been having this same problem for about 2 weeks. When it happens, I have to actually re-boot my computer to get it to rip files again. After that it will rip approximately 3 or so CDs before freezing up again. I have been searching the forums for any news on this and it seems a lot of people are having the problem, but no real good iTunes solution. I am not running Vista, and would prefer not to rip files in some other program to use them in iTunes.

  • Ipod stopping halfway through a song and restarting

    my 1st gen. ipod stops halfway through a song and restarts. but it doesn't do this with all songs, just some. i updated the songs from my ipod onto it again, then manually ejected it, but nothing is working..
    HELP!!

    Try reseting it by holding both Menu and Center buttons down untill the Apple Logo pops up(you my have to do this a couple times for it to work). Or you can restore its factory settings and put the songs back on the iPod. But if that doesen't work try calling this number Apple Disability Solutions (800) 767-2775 and see if you can get yourself further help.

  • My icloud restores my iPhone, but when it starts to re download the apps it stops halfway through

    My icloud starts to restore my new iPhone but when it gets partially through downloading the apps, it stops. It also never downloads the photos from my icloud

  • Windows 7 - Downloads stopping halfway through

    I recently downloaded windows 7 and it is running well on my computer. However, itunes will not complete downloads (I was testing with a video podcast) - they start and then stop halfway through, and give error 3259. I have run the connectivity diagnostic, checked my firewall, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and it still doesn't work. My anti virus program is AVG - could this be affecting the downloads? Is there anything else that I can do?

    Very similar issue for me. I copied my Vista profile to my server and installed Windows 7 Pro. Reinstalled all apps, copied data from old profile back into new one. iTunes loaded with everything EXACTLY as it was before (right down to playcount on songs and everything). For several days, no problem downloading video podcasts. A few days ago, that changed. Out of the blue, it would disconnect me 50-80% of the way through the download and give me error 3259 (& 9006 once). I've read online how it's due to firewall settings, antivirus and old iTunes. I was running iTunes 9.0.1 and it would not permit me to update to 9.0.2 so I downloaded it and installed on my own. Still have the problem. The firewall whitelisted iTunes and I opened up recommended ports as well. No change. I'm using AVG free so it doesn't have a firewall. With Vista, I used McAfee but then I had Windows 7 working fine with AVG and allowing downloads until this sudden change.
    The recommended fixes DO NOT work. Changing firewall settings changes nothing. The antivirus has no firewall and no settings for any kind of whitelisting of iTunes anyways. Updating iTunes changes nothing. I can still download the podcasts manually through Firefox or using my Mac Mini running OS X Server (10.5). Given how it worked at one time, nothing changed, then it suddenly stopped, I'm at a loss.
    I did get two to download today but I changed nothing before they started and then the third in line to download failed.
    I haven't been on Apple discussions lately but since it is a forum, my background is entirely IT. It's how I make my living (troubleshooting in general). It's possible I have overlooked something but given the recommended fixes out there so far and all the variations on them that I have tried, it is unlikely. The issue must be caused by something other than firewall settings, antivirus or iTunes version. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open. I'm getting tired of using Windows LiveSync to keep podcasts updated on this Windows 7 laptop.
    Any help finding the actual fix for this problem is greatly appreciated.

    Now it's Wednesday (2 days since I originally posted) & my iPhone appears to have finally restored all my apps, but it still says it's restoring from iCloud backup.  If all my apps are restored, what else could it be restoring?  IS it actually restoring anything at this point, or is it still in 'glitch' mode???  I've tried turning it off & back on & it continues to say that it's restoring.

    Did you disable all the extensions before restarting?
    If it works in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:
    *all extensions are disabled
    *the default theme is used (no persona)
    *userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored
    *the default toolbar layout is used (localstore-safe.rdf)
    *the Javascript JIT compiler is disabled
    *hardware acceleration is disabled
    *plugins are not affected

    Hi brett242424,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The movie would be in your iTunes library, in the Movies application.  However, if the rental period has expired, you may need to contact the iTunes Store Support about your situation:

  • Music starts halfway through a song

    Just wondered am I doing something wrong.... When I'm listening to my music some tracks start halfway through the song and not at the beginning. Any help would be appreciated

    Have you tried updating it and doing a restore with the latest iPod updater (2006-03-23)? You can go here and install the latest updater on your PC and then hook the iPod up and run the updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
    Doing a restore will wipe everything off the iPod, but once connected to iTUnes, it will load everything back up. More on restoring can be found here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983

  • I just purchased an album off iTunes but it won't let me download one song...

    I just purchased an album off iTunes but it won't let me download one song off the album due to a -100000 error. It tells me to check for available downloads on the "store" bar, and when I click it, the file still won't download. What should I do?~ Any advice would be appreciated. =^w^=

    Hello TheCoddfish,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    So it sounds like you have a preorder you would like to download, but it is not downloading, or you dont have the option to download it.
    Without knowing what the preorder was, and if it is released, I found this article named iTunes Store: About Pre-orders found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5714.
    This part in particular:
    Downloading a pre-ordered item
    When a pre-order item becomes available, you will receive an email letting you know your pre-order is available for download.
    If you've enabled iTunes to automatically download prepurchased content, then your pre-order content may already be downloaded to your library. If not, simply click the download link provided within your email notification, and your pre-order content will begin to download. Alternatively you can use the "Check for Available Downloads" feature in iTunes on your computer by choosing Store > Check for Available Downloads to begin downloading your pre-order.
    To view, cancel, or see the expected release dates for your pending pre-orders
    Choose Store > View My Appie ID, then click Manage Pre-orders, which located in the Settings section at the bottom of the Account Information screen in iTunes on your computer.
    From the Mange Pre-orders screen, click the Cancel button to the right of the pre-order item you would like to cancel. You'll be asked to confirm your pre-order cancellation.
    If the album is released and you still cannot download it, I would report the issue directly to the iTunes Store support.

  • Audio stops halfway through video recordings

    I used my new iPhone a couple of times to record something last night and now when I'm playing back the videos the audio stops halfway through.
    Can anyone tell me why this is and if there's any way of restoring all of the original sound?
    Thanks

    Glad to know someone else has experienced this bug. I had the audio cut out midway through a recording, and stay silent through a number of subsequent "takes". It came back the next day and I haven't had any trouble since. Still, I'd like to know how to avoid this problem, or if it's just a random bug.
    I first thought I might have inadvertently pressed some button muting the microphone, but there really doesn't seem to be any control over the sound in the video recording function.
