I have a similar problem. I updated to iTunes 6.0.2 and now it runs very slowly. Like when I try to select an album or a song, the spinning beach ball shows up and it takes a few seconds to select. This is extremely annoying and makes the program almost unusable, especially if I'm creating a playlist on the fly during a party or something...I know this is not an answer, but would like to know if anyone has a problem with iTunes running excruciatingly slow...

    Every time I switch on the iPhone, the iTunes icon is displayed together with a USB icon and Emergency call message appears on the screen in many languages. When I touch the i symbol I get the following information IMEI: **** AND ICCID: ****
    However, the iphone is visible in the Devices directory in iTunes. I changed my SIM card but still can not be recognized by the iPhone.

    Do you mean when you say its locked to another carrier other then the one im using, that maybe my insurance sent me an iphone thats for a different network for example orange and not mine which is o2?

  • Ever since upgrading to iTunes 11.0, I can no longer sync Contacts and Calendar from my iMac (10.7.5) To my iPad2 (6.0.1) via Wi-Fi.  I believe All my settings are correct.  Device is recognized and sync From iPad is possible.

    Thank you Meta, but I could not get the calendar and contact sync with Gmail to work. Apple support already suggested to use Google or a Windows PC. Maybe I should actually reset and try my old Windows PC. Seriously, ... can this be the solution after a Mac OS update for pure Apple users?

  • I upgraded to itunes 10.7. Now when I try to sync my new iphone 5 it gets stuck in step 6 of 8 determining tracks to sync

    I upgraded to itunes 10.7 and now when I try to sync my iphone 5 it gets stuck in step 6 of 8 determining tracks. I reload 10.7 and rebooted everything. What do i do?

    Had the same thing happen to me when I tried syncing my iPhone this a.m. - talked to Apple 7 hours ago and evidently there's an "issue" with the iTunes server. The Apple adviser told me to try syncing in an hour. Well, rather than do that, I've continued to check Twitter, searching on "itunes sync" or "itunes server" - seems the problem's still going on.
    I'm going to wait it out til tomorrow. Or whenever.
    The REASON I was synching is that ever since the iOS 5 "upgrade" photos that were in albums synced from iPhoto had disappeared. Not all the photos, just all the photos in some albums. Weird.
    Too many bugs in iOS 5 (syncing, Bluetooth connectivity, etc.). They should have waited til it was right before releasing it.

  • Upgraded to iTunes 9: 'Determining Volume' now *very* slow

    I've upgraded my iTunes to version 9 but I've noticed that when I download podcasts iTunes now takes forever, about 1 minute per 30 minute podcast, to analyze the volume level.
    Is there some new setting I need to look into?
    Or is this a bug in iTunes9 and I should downgrade back to version 8?
    Is there a place to file bug reports against iTunes9?
    Thanks!

    I'm seeing that problem as well and I can't figure out what why it's slower. I figured it's a bug so I reported the problem at Apple's iTunes Feedback page.
    On the other hand, iTunes 9 converts MP3s to AAC format at least twice as fast as iTunes 8 did, which is a very welcome improvement.

  • Upgraded to iTunes 11...now insists on syncing contacts/calendars 'over-the-air' but can't change settings

    Upgraded to iTunes 11, at which time it decided it was better for me to sync my calendar/contacts "over-the-air" from iCloud (when I never had this activated before).  Now it says "your contacts are being synced with your iPhone over the air from iCloud" (which is not true...it doesn't work and changes in one place are not made in another - same goes for calendars).  Also states "Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone" (likewise not true...I've got them deactivated in my iPhone and still doesn't work).
    Not sure why Apple thought they should go ahead and change my preferences that were setup to go to iCloud, especially when it doesn't even work.  Now no contact or calendar changes I make in Outlook transfer to iPhone or vice-versa (even with a manual sync).
    Anyone know what the h*ll is going on with this?  To say I'm annoyed would be an understatement.  May be time to ditch Apple and the iPhone, first no YouTube & Google Maps now they insist on not allowing me to sync the way I want.  Total BS.

    I have this same problem too - thanks for the heads up that all my NOTES will get wiped.  Going to have to workaround by dumping all my notes from Outlook to ONENOTE on the cloud.  Then not really using NOTES on my iPhone and iPad.  Apple is slowly becoming more and more successful in getting me to NOT use MS products, like Outlook.  Actually, my cloud strategy will be to keep my longer notes on ONENOTE and relegating NOTES on iPhone/iPad to just quick hits that I jot here and there.  I guess iPhone/iPad notes will then get synced over iCloud but will not end up in Outlook.  What a pain in the arse!  I need a seriously freaking flow chart to keep track of all of my cloud activity.  It's making my head spin.

  • I recently tried to upgrade my itunes on my dell laptop with 64bit Windows 7 and it stopped working completely. So I tried deleting and installing all over again and haven't been able to reinstall it since. I've tried numerous things i've read in forums

    I recently tried to upgrade my itunes on my dell laptop with 64 bit windows 7. It stopped working so I deleted all files and tried to reinstall and haven't been able to since. I've tried numerous things i've read in forums and nothing seems to work. The installation will not move past the "publishing product information" point. After being stuck there for a while this error message appears:
    An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",process or Architecture="x86"', Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736FD
    I hope someone is able to help me with this.

    Did you already try what bnoir suggested in this post about error 0x800736FD:
    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?
    This thread might help as well, suggestion provided by bnoir:
    In general, these ones tend to be caused by underlying problems on the PC that can prevent Windows Updates from installing. So my main strategy with them is to try to fix the Windows Update issues. If we can get Windows Updates flowing again, that generally clears up the iTunes install errors +en passant.+
    Head into your Windows Update, and check for any new updates. Do any fail? If so, open your Update History and doubleclick on the failure entries to bring up a small box with alphanumeric error message codes. Are you getting 8000FFFFs? (They often seem to be associated with an iTunes-install 0x800736FD.)
    If you're getting 8000FFFFs, try the following Microsoft document:
    [Windows Update Error 8000FFFF|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-Error- 8000FFFF]
    Head back to Windows Update, and stock up on any updates you're behind on. Once you're completely up to date in that regard, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Upgraded my iTunes from 4.3.3 to iOS 7.0 and now iTunes cannot locate my iPad 2 or any of the movies/books I purchased

    Computer illiterate here.  I wanted to upgrade my iPad2 from an iOS 4.3.5 to a 5.0 so i could upgrade some of my games.  Initially when iPad2 wanted to upgrade to 5.0 I said no because people said it was causing a lot of problems.  Now I cannot play certain games because I don't have iOS 5.0.  I went to iTunes because I cannot locate any upgrades on my iPad 2 and the upgrade was to iOS 7.0 which I did.  Now when I go to my iPad 2, it says HELLO and wants me to follow all these steps.  When I try to restore my back up, iTunes cannot locate my iPad 2 or other items I purchased.  What can I do, I should have just left it at iOS 4.3.5 - at least I could use my iPad 2?

    Hey there SNagai,
    It sounds like you are not seeing your iPad in iTunes after updating it. I would recommend the following article to help you get that working again:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    Here is an overview of the troubleshooting to be done:
    1. Update iTunes
    2. Check the USB cable
    3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    4. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
    5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
    6. Check for third-party software conflicts
    If the issue persists, try uninstalling iTunes and its associated apps with either of these two articles depending on your operating system version:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
    Or
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • Upgraded to iTunes 6.0.2 - now this happens!!

    Hi, I installed 10.4.4, Quicktime 7.0.4, the iPod updated and iTunes 6.0.2 yesterday.
    Last night I noticed the following VERY strange behaviour in iTunes - so far it only happens with one Album - but it has never happened before with this particular album, nor with any other album.
    When I choose any track to play (from this album) I get a pop up dialogue box with the following message -
    'An error occurred. The Music Store could not process your request, please try again later.'
    Now, I'm not using the Music Store and I did not buy this album from the Music Store.
    I've gone to the iTunes Music folder on my hard drive and the album is there with all tracks and they can be played from the Preview pane. This problem is just confined to iTunes itself.
    Before and after updating I rang Repair Disk Permissions. No apparent problems.
    Any ideas out there?
    I

    turned off the 'MiniStore' (Don't
    actually know how it became turned on!) and the
    problem disappeared.
    That's a matter of some discussion lately. The Mini Store is new to this version of iTunes and it comes turned on by default. Some people are concerned that this seems a bit like spyware.... although Apple has been saying that while they use the information to provide you with purchase suggestions, they are not storing any information about your listening habits.

  • Upgrading to iTunes 9 -- /VERY/ slow now..

    So when I "updated" to iTunes 9.0, all of a sudden, it's running excruciatingly slowly for me. When I first installed 9.0, it took about 8 hours to "update my library". Any time that I click on a song to play it, there's a good 10-second beachballing before it plays. Switching to a different song causes the same issue. I didn't have that problem at all in iTunes 8. Always ran smooth as silk.
    I rolled back to the latest version of iTunes 8. When iTunes 9.01 was released, I once again "updated" iTunes. Same exact issue.
    Currently, I have my iTunes library file stored on my local HDD and my music/videos/etc stored in a shared folder on a NAS. Apparently, other people have had issues with music stored on external drives. I'd done a search and the only real "solution" that I could find was to delete the iTunes preference file. I tried that and it worked.. until I added more music to the library. After more music was added, it was back to the same VERY slow behavior as before.
    Is there a more permanent solution to this and I am just not finding it? Is this a known issue that Apple is working on? Going to roll back to iTunes 8 once again.
    Thanks in advance for anyone's help.

    Hi there,
    I downgraded to iTunes 8.2 as well and haven't looked back (forward). I saw iTunes 9.0.1 come out but thought I'd wait to hear if it had sorted out any of the problems. But sounds like it hasn't.
    iTunes 8.2 was the sweet spot I think. Not only does 9 not work well, but it looks and feels awful too. It's such a shame they've messed up what was a great piece of software. I really hope they address all these issues, but I doubt it. RIP iTunes!
