    Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
    It takes up to 10 minutus.
    If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
    For instance:
      Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.

    What can this be?
    Already thanks,

    I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
    Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
    So I contued with the user section.
    I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    This gave the same result in not starting up.
    Then I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
    I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
    But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
    Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
    Manually starting was not a problem.
    Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
    So Matt thanks for your answer.
    If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.

    I have 4.2.1 and for some reason when i load the program it stops at Loading Windows media (splash screen).  I cant edit anything if it wont open and I have a project to finish.. Can some one help me? This is on Vista Ultimate.  I have 12g of ram, a i7 950 (3.06Ghz)
    Thanks.

    After an uninstall, you also need to run the clean script 2-3 times, rebooting between runs, to be sure all remnants are removed from the Registry

  • Why is my iMac much slower after installing Mavericks. Windows open slowly and Apps load slowly.

    Everything seems to be taking much longer. I have a late-2012 iMac with 32 GB of RAM that was blazing fast until I "upgraded" to Mavericks. Now everyithing is slow. Does it use more system resources? I would think that with that much RAM I would have plenty of headroom for the OS. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Here's my suggestion:
    Fixing a Mavericks Installation Problem
    How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
    1. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC).
    2. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
    Re-download and reinstall Mavericks.
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • 790FX-GD70 - Blank screen after bios (never shows Windows Loading screen)

    Setup:
    Phenom II X4 955
    790FX-GD70
    750w PC Power and Cooling, Inc PSU
    Western Digital HDD
    ATI HD2900XT
    x-Fi fatality sound card
    Windows XP x64 Pro
    So hardware wise this setup has not changed in over 8 months.  However tonight I restarted (first sound cut out so i decided to reboot).  Lo and behold on the reboot, it will flash the MSI splash screen and allow me into the bios but when I go to boot it will not show the windows loading screen.  It sends me to an active (my monitor doesn't go into standby) black blank screen (no text or error msg) and won't respond to any keys.
    Anyone else ever have similar issues?
    Thanks
    Verik

    I appreciate it guys.  I did a little more digging around the internet and found it was most likely due to a corrupted MBR.  The fix usually involves booting from a win xp disc and typing in the command "fixmbr" in the recovery program.  However I inserted my win xp disc and it simply went black..... then loaded up windows just fine.  Pulled the disc out, did a normal restart and it seems to have solved itself.... At this point I'm not sure entirely what it did but I'm just being thankful its working haha.
    Appreciate the input guys.

  • HP p6230a runs slow after bios update - Getting error BIODHD-8 on Diagnostic Tools

    After bios update my desktop runs so painfully slow it is unworkable.  Disk drive seems to be constantly hammered by processes that don't appear on task manager.  Running 64 bit windows 7 (sp1).  Running the diagnostic tools prior to boot up comes up with error code BIOHD-8 - A SMART test failed on the drive - please contact HP Support.  Ideally would like to get previous version of bios as machine was running well before update. 

    I will ask my HP Employee Expert colleagues about this internally. It will take a while for them to respond.
    the BIODHD-8 error code means your harddrive is failing and must be replaced.
    Back up everything that you possibly can before it fails and no longer boots up into Windows .
    is your notebook still within the standard warranty period of one year? A notebook hard disk is a warranty replaceable item.(no cost to you while within warranty)

  • Desktop Manager Will not Load. Hangs on splash screen when loading, then crashes

    My desktop manager is not loading, and hangs whenever it is attempted to load. I have done a clean uninstall, removed rim registry entries, and did a fresh download and install 3 times with full shut downs between each attempt. I am running Windows 7 service pack 1 with an HP Laptop. It is an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC. Product Number LY080UA. I hope that is enough information, but I will give more if asked and informed how to gather such info.
    When I right click on the Desktop Manager Icon, I choose to run as Admin. Once it loads the splash screen shows. After a little bit (4-6 seconds) a small Icon appears in my systems tab at the bottom right of my screen. This stays for a little while and then goes away. After this happens the Splash screen hangs, and get a black border around it. If I click on the Splash screen it grey out and says not responding, prompting windows to ask me if I want to wait for the program or close. If I choose to wait, it will sit there and do nothing. If I close it will prompt windows to "look for an error" but has not yet been able to return an answer.
    When I log into safe mode, Desktop Manager loads, but does not work well as only a bare bones set of drivers are enabled. If I turn off all but the non-essential services off using services.msc it will load, but again the services needed for it to run and the services for windows to be fully functional are not on at all.
    I have attempted to turn off all but the Desktop manager in the start up, using msconfig, but that does not help either.
    I am at my wits end here, and would really like some help with this. It loads up (desktop manager) on my Desktop, but I am unable to log that mammoth box around with me while I travel.
    Thank you for your time and efforts, I will be very grateful for any and all help.

    I'm having the exact same problem here! I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64. Please help! This was posted a month ago.

  • CS5 Premiere, After Effects, and Encore hang on splash screen - Solution

    I just installed Production Premium CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit system. The install went without a hitch, but when I attempted to start Premiere, After Effects or Encore, they would all hang at some place with the splash screen showing. I spent 2 hours on the phone with Adobe and they never solved the problem. They had me uninstall iTunes and Quicktime, upgrade my nVidea driver and upgrade to a newer version of Quicktime. None of this made a difference and at that point I realized they were not going to fix my problem. The first woman was an idiot and the guy I spoke to next was a lot better, but no solution. Premiere was hanging when loading the Quicktime plug-ins.
    Then I had an Aha! moment. I shut off User Account Control, rebooted and then everything worked. I could also get the programs to work with UAC on if I changed the shortcut to "Run as Administrator" but then there would be a UAC prompt. By the way, I was running as a user with full administrator privileges.
    I am astounded that Adobe has never encountered this problem before and did not have an immediate solution. Once again, Adobe Tech Support has continued to provide pathetic tech support.
    Steve

    The plug-ins that were involved in the hang on the splash screen were:
    ExporterQuickTimeHost.prm
    ImporterQuickTime.prm
    The splash screen would hang for 5 minutes on each of these and then if PPro started it would only be a plain white window with the Menu Bar and then there would be no further response.

  • PLEASE HELP :) PC restarts automatically at windows xp splash screen

    i'm about to commit suicide...i bought a K8N Neo4 platinum SLI mobo from a friend from a prefectly working PC...i even sent the mobo back to MSI for that free upgrade for the X2 and 7800 video cards. i also bought new psu, new memory(from the list of compatibles modules from the MSI site) and a new sata2 hdd. It installs windows perfectly and when it finishes and restarts, when the xp splash screen appears, the bar doesnt appear and after a 2 seconds it restarts automatically. a friend told me that it maybe the winxp pro cd that doesnt have the service pack  and doesnt recognize the entire size of the hdd sata, so i got a winxp home with the SP1 already inside and it detected the hdd correctly but still does the same stupid thing. another friend told me it was the bios settings for the ram and stuff. i'm out of options and im about to burn it down and buy a brand pc lol. Before this PC i had a athlon xp 2500 with a gygabite mobo and it ran perfectly..then i bought this motherboard and a new psu..reused the memory and the disks drives and it gave me problems, throwing blue screens at installation and copy errors...i swaps memory sticks and psu and it got a little better but still restarted at the splash screen...ok here goes the impossible part. I installed back ALL my original equipment that it was working perfectly fine..and when i installed windows it gave me the same problems as with the new one...how was that possible??...then i decided to buy everything new and it still giving me problems. please help guys.

  • Satellite M60 will not boot up after BIOS update through windows

    Hi all,
    I was updating my bios on my M60 with the latest bios version and I was following the windows flashing procedure (the recommended one) and it blue screened and dumped. Now the laptop wont boot, wont even post. Just a big dead brick :(
    I'm fairly proficient with hardware (I'm a software engineer) but I do not know how to reflash a laptop when this sort of thing happens. Is there a trigger bios reset on board? Is there anything I can do my self? If I take it back to my dealer how likely is it they will be able to reflash the bios in house? (Its a fairly large dealer in the Toronto area)
    This being a work system I need the solution that has the smallest time impact - cost is not too big an issue.
    Any help would be grand,
    thanks in advance.

    Hello Kristan
    According to your problem description I presume the BIOS chip is damaged and unfortunately you can not do much alone. Please contact Toshiba service and explain them the situation. They will explain you everything you must know and you can talk with them about costs and the time they need for notebook repairing.
    Bye

  • Bootup problem after bios flash

    I recently flashed my bios to version 2.50, and now it doesn't boot properly. I think it may have been because of a bad flash, but I am a litte uncertain regarding the symptoms for that ailment. The thing is, I used live update 3.77, and it went through deleting and writing without problem. Then it came to verifying, and half way through I lost video signal. I left the computer on for five minutes without any change, then i turned it off. Since then, it doesn't boot properly. I've used live update successfully before.
    The D-bracket goes through 0000, 0001 and 0010 and stops there, some sort of memory problem according to the manual. I've tried another memory stick, I've tried unplugging all devices apart from cpu, ram and video and I've tried clearing CMOS (after I did that, keyboard power on stopped working, does that give anything away?).
    Any thoughts on what I could do?
    Specs:
    MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R
    Pentium 4 2.8 800 FSB HT
    2x256 MB TwinMos CrapTastic PC3200 memory sticks
    GeForce Ti4600
    All other devices apart from keyboard unplugged

    How did you and your friend fair with your MB problems?   I've had similar problems with my 865PE NEO2-FIS2R MB being stuck at the "Testing RTC" step as indicated by the D-Bracket.  My issues were that the BIOS defaults do not support my memory or AGP Video card. The default voltages are 1.5V for AGP and 2.5V for RAM, but my video card (An MSI AGP Video card: FX5200-TD128 (MS-8911)) does not function well until I set the AGP voltage to 1.7V and my memory sticks (two sticks of Kingston KHX3200K2/256MB) are speced. at 2.6V, but run more stable at 2.65V.
    Here is the process that I followed which I have pieced together from other forum posts, including answers from Maesus:
    1) Remove ATX Power Connection
    2) Move JBAT1 jumper from 1-2 to 2-3
    3) Remove battery
    4) Remove memory stick(s), leaving only one in bank 1
    5) Remove AGP Video card and install PCI Video card.
    6) Wait 30 minutes.
    7) Reinstall ATX Power connector.
    8) Reinstall Battery
    9) Move JBAT1 jumper back from 2-3 to 1-2
    10) Power up system and go into BIOS setup.
    11) Set AGP voltage to 1.7V and memory voltage to 2.65V
    12) Save and reboot.
    13) Power down.
    14) Reinstall memory stick(s).
    15) Remove PCI video card and reinstall AGP video card.
    I hope this helps, because it has saved me from RMAing my MB a number of times.
    BTW, I have had a number of problems with BIOS 2.5 and have done extensive testing: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=93100.0
    I have come to the conclusion that BIOS 2.5 is not stable when MAT/PAT is enabled (Fast, turbo and ultra-turbo speeds).  I may flash the BIOS to 2.4 to see if I can get the MAT/PAT function back and stable.
    Take care,
    Pete
