Whe does my Itunes will freeze if its left open for an extended amount of time?

So, my itunes lately will freeze if I leave it open and last night I was backing up my phone for the new update so i left it running and up all night. I came back to my computer this morning and the back up was finished and it had a box asking me if I wanted to install the softwear. So I went to click yes but i couldnt click on anything on itunes but my computer itself wasnt frozen. So now I am backing my phone up again and its really frustrating . Does anyone know why my itunes is doing this?

  • Ipod and itunes(especially itunes)will freeze while syncing

    i pod and itunes will freeze while syncing, all apps are there, but no music?Itunes says ipod has latest updates, I reinstalled  Itunes, powered off/ sleep  a couple times still not syncing any help? Thanks

    Which application are you watching the videos..... QuickTime, VLC, etc.?  Which version?  If QT are you using v10 or v 10.7.x?  The latter is located inside your Utilities folder.  If using VLC, you should  be using the latest version. 
    Type of video files = .mov, .mp4, .mkv, etc.?

  • How do I insert a pdf file (image) into a project as a picture-in-picture clip that will run for a specified amount of time?

    I want to insert a pdf created from a ppt slide into a FCP X project that will run as a PIP for a specified amount of time. I was successful in bringing the image into the project as a clip but the default for the image is one second. When I try to change duration of the clip, I am able to enter a new time length but the actual clip doesn't change.

    You select the PDF image in the timeline. You use Control-D and enter the new duration. What happens?

    when i plug my iPod into my computer, iTunes opens as normal, but for a while it's been giving me a message that says "iTunes is not the default media player" and after i 'tried' to do that, i'll close the settings window and my iTunes window will freeze and not close, reload, or anything. and if i "open drvice to view files" that window will freeze too, the internal storage window. i can't get iTunes to close with ALT+F4, or right clicking the tab on the bottom of the screen to close it, or clicking the 'X' button. the only way it closes is when i shut down my computer. please help me fix this.

  • When does the iTunes store usually update its libraries with new content in the US, specifically TV shows?

    Hello Apple community. I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me approximately when the iTunes Store usually updates its content. I have a couple TV shows I'm watching. I noticed that new episodes of The Amazing World of Gumball and The Looney Tunes Show tend to update with the newest episode the day after it airs. Gumball is usually updated on Tuesdays, sometimes every other Tuesday, but the new episode isn't available on the store yet. It's possible that a holiday threw the scheduled update times off. Still, I would like to know approximately when the iTunes Store updates. I like to plan things out so I know when to purchase gift cards. Thanks Apple community.

    The facility to ping the Store, to draw attention to a change in your podcast, has been removed: the Store will check your feed and update - usually this takes 1-2 days. I was never convinced that pinging made any difference anyway.

  • Why does my itunes say software is up to date for my iphone when it is version 4.2.1??

    my tunes does not show the most recent updates for my iphobe?? I have the lates itunes 10.5 downloaded, what am i not doing?? Apparently there are several updates and i didn't know about it because my itunes doesnt alert me...how do u fix this???? yes, i am not that tech-savvy...thanks for ur help

    The software for your phone and iTunes are two different sets of code. They work together to be sure but if your iPhone is up-to-date at 4.2.1 then it is a 3G model and cannot be updated to iOS5, because it is not supported for iCloud. Your iTunes on the other hand can certainly be version 10.5 on Snow Leopard, but that will still not get you iOS5 for your IPhone. It is sometimes difficult to keep all the numeric designations straight especially when so many of the numerals mirror one another. Your computer uses OSX 10.6.8 = Snow Leopard; you say that your iTunes version is 10.5; your iPhone uses iOS4.2.1.

  • XP will freeze after startup within 20 seconds 9 out of 10 times

    After starting up windows on my Mac Book Pro the screen will freeze within 20 seconds 9 out of 10 times. If it does not freeze, Windows works fine for days. Just do not restart...
    I think I have tried everything to solve the problem. First the several beta-versions of boot camp, now Leopard. Adjusted the acceleration value for the graphics in windows to slow. Started up on battery power which seems to improve the chances of a successful windows-start-up.
    Can anybody help me?

    I have Leopard & XP. XP crashes sometimes (so does Leopard), but for the most part, XP works fine.

  • ITunes will not finish the restoring process for my iPhone 4s

    So I have been trying to restore my iPhone 4s but iTunes will not finish the process. I have the latest versions in both my phone, iTunes and windows updates... I have restarted the iPhone, the comoputer and iTunes... I'm at a lost on what to do. The phone screen has the plug going toward the iTunes icon but when I do connect it to iTunes it does not restore. iTunes goes through the motions until it gets to "preparing iPHone to restore" after that it just kind of stays there for about half an hour and then it shoot out an error 2003 saying the iTunes couldnt' finish the process... I have all of my firewalls off too... Any suggestions?

    I'd possibly say to check USB connections. Maybe another cable.
    All else fails, you might try to restore on another computer.

    Hi Chris,
    Thanks for getting back to me on this. It's been very frustrating recently because I've got mad deadlines to meet. Sorry, I should have stuck a 'my' in the subject title! I know CS5 is powerful and relatively bug free.
    So the report I pated above was from the dialog box that pops up after the crash. Do you need more specific info about my video card? I've pated that info below.
    So what do you think, how do I start to fix this?
