Trouble with I-Tunes Freezing

I know this has been brought up by several others. Moderators please feel free to move my post to a more appropriate thread if you feel so led.
I have been having a problem of late. I connect my wonderful I-Phone 5s to my Mac Power Book and the I-Tunes freezes. I am unable to transfer precious tunes to my I-Phone. This diminishes my pleasure as I work my tail off all day. And I haven't a clue what to do.
Please help.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

I am having trouble with the ipad2 freezing up causing me to restart the tablet. How can I fix this?

I am having trouble with the ipad2 freezing up causing me to restart the tablet. How can I fix this?

Doubt it is a Hardware issue...
If the Reset and the Restart have not Resolved the Issue...
Then the Next Step is a Restore...
Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

I am also having trouble with my cursor freezing after installing Mavericks. Never did it before. I called tech support at Apple and they had me restart computer and mouse together from a complete shut down. So far has seemed to work.

I am having trouble with my cursor freezing between applications after installing Mavericks. Called Apple on my 3 year warranty and opened a case. They suggested a complete shut down of computer and turning off mouse. Then a reboot and turn on mouse. So far iit has seemed to work. Hope this continues??
Hope it helps others.

I think you can solve your problems by removing your AppleID email address from BOTH the Messages setting on your iPhone and the iMessages settings on your Mac.
On iPhone:
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Dissabled
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > touch the "(i)" < touch "Remove This Email"
On Mac:
Open "Messages" application
Click "Messages menu > Preferences
Click "Accounts"
Select your AppleID account
Under the "You can be reached for messages at" settings, uncheck your AppleID email address and your phone number
Then uncheck the "Enable this account" setting
And lastly, ask all of your friends with iPhones to delete all iMessage conversations (blue bubbles) in their entirety.
To test, send a friend a new text using their phone number (not their email address) and watch the color of the bubble. If it's green then you are using SMS.

Having trouble with I-Tunes, Please Help!!!!!!!! New User

Hi, im having continous problems with i tunes im a new user and im finding very hard to work out how me and my girlfriend can use i tunes with different i pods. Im sure their is a way we can use the same program without having to keep deleting each others music and adding it all over again. Can someone please advise how we can both use i tunes from the same program/computer and have our own library of music without the others music be downloading onto the wrong i pods.
I hope that makes sense and someone can help.
Thanks Alex

There are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
a) Sharing a single iTunes library and user account.
b) Creating multiple user accounts and having separate libraries.
Sharing a Library
If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish):
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Mac
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
Loading the iPod shuffle differs slightly but it can still be used with the others, for details have a look at this page:
Loading songs onto iPod shuffle - Mac
Loading songs onto iPod shuffle - Windows
Separate User Accounts
Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists

Trouble with making a freeze frame?

Hello All,
I need some help with something I'm trying to do. I have a short clip in my timeline that I have color corrected and added some filters to. Then I move the playhead around until I find a still picture that I like and then I go to Modify>Make Freeze Frame and then I move the still from the viewer over to the section that hold all the files. The trouble is that when I make the freeze frame FCE is giving the version before I did color correction or adding the filters. How do I get to make a freeze frame that has been color corrected? It's showing me the raw version before I've done anything to it.
Thanks for your help.
MIke

When the freeze frame is created in FCE, it is only from the master clip (with no filters applied). Simply drag the filters that you applied to the clip to the new freeze frame. The filters will be applied with the settings you made.

Microsoft Anti-Counterfeit Program Causing Trouble with I-Tunes?

Okay, my girlfriend had a family friend build a computer for her, and of course, he installed a counterfeit XP Pro OS. She recently received the anti-counterfeit warning, and dutifully ordered the fix from MSOFT, for $149 and change.
You get the disk, which you don't need to use, and you need to run a tool which allows you to replace your counterfeit OS software key with a new one. And she did this successfully.
But now I-tunes 6 won't let her run her songs. Relevant messages are:
(1)"This computer is not authorized to play [x], wouldyou like to authorize it."
(2) She logs in with password, then it says..."Machine Authorization Successful, you have authorized 1 out of 5etc."
(3) But hit OK and you get - "We could not complete your music store request, an unknown error occurred (-208). There was an error in the music store, try again later."
Is I-tunes relying on the software key to verify authorized computers, but not able to handle a key change? Considering the scale of the MSOFT anti-counterfeit program, probably gonna be trouble! Any known info on fixing this issue?

Its a corrupt SC folder.... First goto Advanced>deauthorize over and over til you get "This PC has not been authorized"
Now follow these steps, its for a different issue but the steps are the same for deleteing the SC folder

New hard drive but troubles with I tunes after re-install

I've recently had a new hard drive installed on my ibook G4. Its a 250GB Powerbook Hard Drive Western Digital Upgrade.
I did not have the disk for leopard as this machine was bought as a refurb, so we installed Tiger OS X from another Ibook G4 we have in the house. I used a firewire from the older ibook g4 to the one with the new hard drive to transfer the data.
Everything seemed fine, but I noticed that my Itunes library was missing. I searched through applications and found a folder marked Itunes with the missing music.
I tried to import them into the library all at once and it failed. So then we tried
to import them in batches like all of A then B etc.
It seemed to work but then when I closed I tunes and tried to reopen it, nothing.
It will not re open I get a window that says I tunes quit unexpectantly with the 3 buttons
try again (doesn't work) report and close.
Another issue that has just come to light is that when I was looking at a website called Edufire
(a free educational audio resource) Safari automatically shut itself down.
Not sure what to do next....any suggestions
And many thanks for helping with the mysterious ticking noise.

If you have actual music files in a folder, on the desktop, and then
have iTunes app open and running (not full screen) you can often
drag music files into the iTunes app this way and they will be seen
and copied into a file location chosen by the app itself.
As to the rest of the situation, the process may have worked fine
in a mechanical way, as far as it goes. However, you need to get
a correct OS X disc in order to not only maintain a legal license for
the use of the software (unless you have a Family Pack multi install)
and also for basic computer and system maintenance.
If the original software packet contents for that computer have been
lost, then you may see if (by calling the 800# in online Apple store)
you could inquire of the possibility of getting a replacement set; that
would be an original OS X install-restore set, as-shipped, for a fee.
In order to perform system maintenance, you boot the computer from
the correct installer disc to run Disk Utility, and all the tools it offers;
including the proper formatting and partition, repair disk, etc on there.
And, if used with the iTunes Store, the computer would have to be
authorized. Having an unauthorized copy of an OS on what is now
two computers, may be a problem with using these with an account.
Have you tried a different browser, such as Firefox 3.x or Camino?
There may be other issues in the browser question. Several answers.
Good luck & happy computing!

Trouble with 5G iPod Freezing

Hey all, I just bought the 5G iPod and Iam having problems with it already. I put a movie on it by using "Handbreak" with MP4. The movied played great through iTunes, but it kept freezing up when it played on the iPod!!! It was also forming green boxes on the screen. The movie would freeze up and put these green boxes in random places, never in the same spot!! Please tell me that it can be fixed and that nothing is wrong with my iPod but I used the wrong program to get the movie on my iPod!!

Im having trouble with i-tunes

i baught several songs on i tunes but there are a couple of them that wont register with my i-pod HELP ME PLEASE!

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Trouble with i-tunes filtering artists

I'm simply trying to copy a single artists albums in their entirety from i-tunes to my i-pod. I-tunes filters out any songs on the albums that have other artists names listed.
For example: I want to move all my Eric Clapton albums to my i-pod. When it does the Crossroads collection it leaves out all the songs listed as Cream. The only way I can find around this is to go to that specific album and then copy it. Doesn't seem practical.
Is there a way around this? Basically I don't like how I-tunes filters from artist to album selection. Can that be turned off somehow?

Yes they are diffrerent artists, but they're on the same album. Is there any other way other than manually making playlists, which is not practical with a large collection. I am not going to go through several hundred albums changing information or making that many playlists.

Trouble with i tunes library

It doesn't work like that, you have to transfer the songs from iPod to computer yourself.
For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
SharePod is also freeware.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
