Upgraded to 10.4 and now iTunes imports really slowly???

Upgraded to 10.4 and now cds import much slower on iTunes. I used to average 9.0X - 10.0X. Now i get lucky to get up to 9.0X. It usually hovers between 5.0X - 8.0X. This happened immediately after I finished with the upgrade disc.
Any idea how to solve this problem?

Got advice - disable widgets.

  • Upgraded to iphone 4 and now itunes keeps opening up on my HP computer all the time?

    I upgraded to iphone 4 & now itunes keeps opening up on my hp. I turned off find my iphone from an article I seen on here, but the problem still continues. Help please advise.

    okay. it is very easy. just kill your itunes application (it will not uninstall or pemanantly remove it from your compter.) just open task manager to open it, (for vista and 7) click start->search ''run''->then in the run window, type ''taskmgr''. (and for xp) click start->run->type ''taskmgr''
    in the task manager window(for both xp, vista and 7), go to applications tab, then click itunes, then click end process button. if there is not any itunes option in the applications tab, click processes tab, cick itunes.exe, then click end process (or) right cick itunes.exe and click end process.
    one thing to note. if you are syncing your iphone and you are trying to kill itunes, it would be a problem so don't do it. to open itunes again, just click in the shortcut or icon you used to open it.

  • I upgraded my ipad mini and now itunes u keeps crashing

    Everytime i open itunes u it opens one particular course, when i click library it crashes. This is only since upgrading to IOS7. If i uninstall and reinstall will i lose all my courses?

    Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Updated to Lion and now iTunes and Apple TV 2 no longer work

    I "upgraded" to Lion today and now iTunes won't work and neither will my Apple TV 2. I click on media in iTunes and nothing happens. More than that, though, there's something strange going on with the metadata because movie posters are vanishing and reappearing. At the Apple TV end I get a lot of "Error Occurred Loading This Content" messages, but when it does actually decide to play a file only a couple of seconds of it load and then it freezes up.
    This has been great. Upgrade the OS and now I can't listen to music or watch movies anymore.
    I reinstalled iTunes, but nothing changed. I rebooted my router and nada. It woulda been cool if someone had actually tested this OS before it was sent out to disable Macs everywhere...
    -Rob

    I believe there's some kind of sleep problem with my RAID array going on here. I had to switch the RAID array to the Firewire connection because Lion didn't like my eSata card. Now accessing media on the RAID array seems to be something that takes time to "wake up" the array, though I don't have any sleep modes enabled.

  • Installed v8 and now itunes won't open

    I upgraded to V 8 and now itunes won't open. Saying my audio configuration not right. Anyone know how to fix this?

    I always backup and archive any and all versions I've used and downloaded, or at least until I feel safe with the current version.
    Setting a backup also lets a system be restored to prior point in time.

  • I interrupted my iphone upgrade to ioS 6 and now my phone just keeps showing the apple. it wont restart or show up when I plug it into itunes!!!!

    Help! i accidently interrupted my iphone upgrade to ioS 6 and now my phone wont turn on completely. it just keeps showing the apple. it also wont register with itunes...i have tried turning it off and restarting it multiple times but nothing is working. HELP!

    hey man, i feel your pain... here's my story and i'm pretty sure this will work for you... on the 19th of september i went to upgrade ios 6 and paused it about 1/10 through... when i plugged my phone up at night the screen was at the normal lock screen.. when i woke up at 10:30 am i went to check my phone and the screen appeared as an apple logo with a progression bar about 6/10 full.. it didn't seem to be progressing any more, but i guess that was only because it was so slow trying to download over wifi because it had all night to finish downloading.. anyways i needed to check my texts and the time so i held down the lock button and the phone turned off during the download.. when i tried to turn it on the apple logo would appear like normal trying to boot up.. then it would fade away and cut off.. then seconds later try to turn on again, by itself, repeatedly for hours on september 20. i tried restarting it (holding lock and home button down 10-15 seconds) but the problem with that is that the phone was already trying to turn on itself so it never would restart correctly... (continued turning on and off by itself).. i went to verizon and they said my phone is screwed.. go to apple if you wanna pay.. i called apple support and a lady helped me out here's the solution that worked after hours of thinking my phone is totally screwed.. when the phone is dark and cut off.. press and hold the home button before you plugin your sync cable to your usb port.. (have itunes up and ready) continue holding the home button and plugin the sync cable.. still holding the button, wait for a message from itunes appear that says it recognizes your device in recovery mode.. press ok.. the screen on your iphone should be a snyc cable and and arrow pointing to an itunes symbol... from there it is pretty self explanatory.. you will need to restore and update your phone from there which should be an option after you press ok... it takes awhile.. your phone will then go through one, or maybe a few progression bars (it may vary, not sure).. while your itunes will be restoring software & firmware.. when everything is done on itunes and your phone.. your phone should boot right up!!! reply if you have any more questions.. i'm so glad i resolved my issue today.. good luck!

  • Did the requested upgrade and now iTunes won't open for anything

    I upgraded to the newest version and now iTunes wont open, no error message, nothing. It looks as if it's going to launch when I click on it but nothing happens. This Happened last time I upgraded but it worked itself out after a few mins but this has been all day... nothing is working.
    I tried to plug my iPod in and not even that will launch iTunes.
    In a similar topic it was asked if QuickTime would launch, my QuickTime will open but it has been loading for 2hrs now.... WHATS GOING ON?!!???

    Me too... The other post relating to this was with a PC but the same is happening for macs too by the look of it. Has anyone got an idea of how to sort this out? I don't suppose it's possible to find an earlier version of iTunes to download? I'm going to have a search now cos I need iTunes to be working!

  • Just upgraded macbook to Snow Leopard, and now itunes won't recognize my iphone.  I tried turning all off, and on.  I have the newest version of itunes.  Will I have to reset my iphone (and also ipod touch?), and if so, does it mean I lose anything?

    I just upgraded macbook to SnowLeopard 10.6.3 and now itunes won't recognize my iphone.  I tried turning everything off and restarting.  I have the latest version of itunes.  If I have to reset the phone (and ipod touch), what does that mean?  Will I lose anything? How long will it take?  thanks

    Start iTunes.  Make sure you really are running the version you think you are.  Sometimes people end up with two copies, different versions.

    You say you are running Snow Leopard 10.6.3.  That version will not run the latest iTunes which requires 10.6.8  If you need iTunes 10.7 you have to be running 10.6.8

  • Upgraded to iTunes 8.1.1 and now iTunes does not recognize iPod

    I recently upgraded to iTunes 8.1.1 and now iTunes does not recognize iPod. The iPod says "Do Not Disconnect" but the device is not listed in iTunes so it will not sync.

    Hey, we are having exactly the same problem! My old ipod died a slow death so I bought a new nano 16gb 4th gen and I can't use it as itunes isn't recognising any ipod being plugged into it. I've been through the whole support database and every USB port is working on the laptop, so I know the computer is recognising its there its just itunes itself - even removed and downloaded it again but no change! If anybody has any ideas what is going on please let me know!!!!

    About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
    Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
    So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
    Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
    Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.

  • I just upgraded my apple TV and now when I rent a movie on iTunes, instead of it playing instantly, it takes 60 hours to load. Anyone else have this problem?

    i just upgraded my apple TV and now when I rent a movie on iTunes, instead of it playing instantly, it takes 60 hours to load. Anyone else have this problem?

    Apple Support, I have just purchased 3 movies 2 from my account and 1 from my wifes account and both systems are stating that it will take 2 days to download.  I have a FIOS 150 megabit per second up and 150 megabit per second down busiuness class fiber service to my location.  I have tested downloading 10Gbyte files from two other locations and both work fine.  I additionally went out and have tested doing speed tests (http://www.speedtest.net/) from over 10 other locations all over the US and all are over 75 magabits per second download speeds with a few hitting 100 and 125 megabit per second speeds.  What is wrong with your servers or your internet connection????
    This is VERY FUSTRATING!!!
    I have additionally tried to download them with my Apple TV and two different PCs all wired on Gigabit Ethernet with jumbo frames enabled.  I have tried differnet DNS servers also.  I can upload and download files to my office 50G in less than 1 hour.  I have also download movies from 2 other movie sites without any problems.

  • Question: i upgraded to Lion and now itune upgrade will not install (error message appears)

    i upgraded to Lion and now itune upgrade will not install (error message appears)

    iPhoto needs to be upgraded in order to work with Mavericks. You can do that via Software Update or the App Store.
    The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.
    Upgrading iPhoto does not involve your iPhoto Library. Your photos will still be there. But it never hurts to make a backup first.
