Why does my itunes freeze every time i connect my 80GB

i am trying to load music onto my ipod and no matter what i try my itunes feezes and no matter what computer. i thought it was just because i was using an old desktop but even my new windows laptop will freeze.

It appears that my iTunes is recignizing my iPod as an iPhone for some reason...could that be the problem?

I Just upgraded to the lastest iTunes version, why does my iTunes freeze every time I connect my iPod but yet it still plays music?

I've never had this problem before but since I've updated my iTunes, it freezes as soon as my iPod gets connected. Ever more strange, the music plays in the background but yet iTunes is frozen. Any help?

Why does my iTunes crash every time I connect a particular device and only that device?

I am trying to switch from an iPhone 5 to a 5s. (The 5s is a company phone and was previously used by another employee.) The instant I connect the 5s to my computer I get a popup that says "iTunes has stopped working" and then the program closes. My iTunes works perfectly fine when I connect the 5 or any other device, so the issue must be with the phone. Why does this happen? How can I fix this?
I did notice when I connect the 5 to my commuter and I open devices two items show up, iPhone and a USB Apple one. When I connect the 5s only the USB Apple device shows up. The iPhone device does not.

1. Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data
2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

Why does my iTunes hang every time when using automatic device detect?

Why does my iTunes hang every time that I connect either of my devices (iTouch-4th Gen, iPod Nano-5th Gen), to my Win 7 (64-bit) PC desktop? By the way, this does not happen if I open iTunes first, and then connect the device. So my workaround was to simply uncheck the checkbox that allows iTunes to start automatically upon device connection. This doesn't fix the problem, but it allows me to synch my device, but it would be nice to be able to have the autodetect work properly, so that iTunes would start normally without locking up on me and freezing. That's what I mean by 'hanging'. My whole computer doesn't freeze--only iTunes.

Hello E
Start with finding the path where the songs are on your PC by right clicking the songs that are missing in iTunes and click Get Info. You should get a window that pops up and in the Summary tab; the path will be there. Then navigate to where it was and see if the files exist. Other than that you can try to search your computer to find those files. Checkout the articles below for tips on finding the missing music, also if some of the tracks are downloaded from the iTunes Store you can download the tracks again by deleting the missing tracks from iTunes and then navigating to the purchases section in the iTunes Store to download them again.

Why does my GS4 freeze every time I send or recieve a group message?

Every time I send or receive a group text, my phone freezes. No response from any buttons; there is nothing I can do but wait. VERY time consuming to use group messaging. I'm not using a 3rd party messaging program, I've tried clearing the cache, restarting the messaging program, restarting the phone, resetting the phone, nothing works. Problem has existed ever since I've had the phone, so it has nothing to do with the update. Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas?

It only happens while in a group message. The phone should not be lacking memory, as I have very few apps installed. I've tried a soft reset, but am hesitant to do a hard reset because of losing what apps and personalization I do have.
I installed the Verizon Messages app, and it seems to work better. But I don't like the design/features of the app, so I don't want to have to use it.

My iPod touch won't sync, update anything & my iTunes freezes every time its connected

Evening,
I went to upgrade my iTouch after finding I couldn't get an app because I didn't have the latest software. When I connected it at first it said my iTouch was unresponsive. This happened a few times till I I read online to restart my iPod and everything. So I did that and checked that I had the latest iTunes and it finally sync'd. Now it has been saying verifying iPod touch for an hour and iTunes has frozen.
Very frustrating because there is so much information but none of it is working for me.
Thank you v much.

Why does my iTunes freeze up?

Why does my iTunes freeze up every time it is opened. It only operates for about 10 -15 seconds and then freezes. I've tried installing it again several times, but with no different results. Can anyone give me something to try? Have I downloaded some program that I shouldn't have? Thank you for any suggestions that you can give me.

Why does my router disconnect every time I sleep the computer? Why did this only start to happen recently?

Why does my router disconnect every time I sleep the computer? Why did this only start to happen recently?

Actually it does with Ethernet too: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2412?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
What happens when the Mac goes to sleep (not just into idle mode or display sleep)?
On all Macs:
The microprocessor goes into a low-power mode
Video output is turned off, and a connected display may turn off or enter its own idle state
Apple-supplied hard disks spin down; third-party hard disks may spin down
On portable Macs:
The Ethernet port turns off, if applicable (see note below)
Expansion card slots turn off
The built-in modem, if present, turns off (see note below)
An AirPort card, if present, turns off (see note below)
The USB ports only responds to the power key on an external keyboard (see below)
The optical media drive, if present, spins down
Audio input and output turns off
Keyboard illumination, if a feature of your portable computer, turns off
But see the note about selecting, "Wake For Network Access" in Energy Saver preferences.
Note: Portable computers have no network connectivity when in sleep mode, but can wake if the Energy Saver option "Wake for network access" is enabled. If you wish to use file sharing or don't want to interrupt your Internet connection, you should not manually put the computer to sleep, and you should drag the "Computer sleep" slider to Never.

Why does the slider disappear every time I use it to move the window (Windows: FF 32.0)?

Why does the slider disappear every time I use it to move the window (Windows: FF 32.0)? How do I get the slider back?

Problem solved: I have been using Walnut for Firefox ver. 2.0.28 theme. For some reason this has been causing the problem. Started FF in Safe Mode, and the slider problem disappeared. Then proceeded to re-enable the Walnut theme: the problem reappeared. Disabled Walnut theme and reenabled all my other add-ons (about 6 of them). Still no problem. So, clearly there is a problem with the use of Walnut theme in FF ver. 32, at least on my Windows 7 installation.
Thanks for all your suggestions and help. Good job, all!

Why does my iPhoto quit every time i use it?

why does my iPhoto quit every time i use it?

Thanks for your help.
1st, when I go to software updates, it says all my software is up to date. Perhaps that is because I only have OS 10.7.5 and the updated iPhoto version is for an updated OS version.
I turned off the counts in prefernces and still can empty the trash. It gets stuck and will not empty more than about 1/5 of the trash.
Can you help me figure out the fastest way to back up iPhoto. I have the cloud backup but not sure how to check to see if it is actually backing up my photos. Do you know how to check into this? Is it better to back up on a hard drive?
Thanks again for your help ...

It normally updates if there are new images or edits which are picked up from the watch folder. The default watch folder is My Pictures+sub-folders.
