When syncing itunes goes through the process of syncing cal,mail,etc. but when gets to determining tracks to sync it freezes

While syncing iTunes will go through the process with no problems but when it reaches the phase that is determining tracks to sync it freezes up.

I have the same problem when syncing just-released audio books from Audible.com. New books from last month sync fine but not this month. Audible acknowledges an issue with iTunes that would be resolve in the next fix but when is that?

                I have a similar problem.      Some of my podcasts sync,  most do not. 
                The ones that do not have a little exclaimation mark by them.
                 I have been looking for a solution but nothing so far --- sorry.
                 I am using ITUNES 11.1.3.8  --- I suspect the problem started when I upgraded to that version.

    Well, you don't have to write down anything. Just click on the message and copy it. Then paste it here, or in a text editor (eg, TextEdit). And you can enter a string like "Audio CD" (w/o the quote marks) in the filter and see only messages containing it.
    mds[71]: (Error) Server: Failed to register path "/Volumes/Audio CD"
    That's the metadata server, used by Spotlight. AFAIK, Spotlight does not index audio CDs, so what is this about? I don't know. Maybe it's the cause of what you observe; or maybe it's another symptom. Thinking again of the network issue… have you maybe installed some third-party software related to both Spotlight and the network (Searchlight perhaps)?

  • In eBay & YouTube, I get the message to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player; I have gone through the download and installation procedure several times, but still get the same message - why can't I install the latest version on Firefox?

    In eBay, I was trying to upload pictures when I got this message: "You need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to use the standard picture uploader.
    Download and install the latest version from Adobe before continuing."
    In YouTube, when trying to watch a video, I got this message: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
    I have gone through the procedure for downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, but still get the same messages when I reopen Firefox and revisit these sites.
    There does not seem to be the same problem with Safari, which runs the latest version of Adobe Flash Player with no trouble.
    I am using an iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.6.7.

    You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.
    *http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

  • When ever I try to download my song it goes through the process of downloading it but when I look in my music on my phone it's not there and there is no lock or anything on the type of song so I don't know what to do.

    Whenever I try to download a couple different songs it will go through the downloading process on my phone but when I look at my song on my phone it's not there and its not the grey problem either. I've tried downloading it on my phone and iTunes. Please help!!!!!!

    Try restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. If still probem then it apears that the drop caused hardware damage to your iPod. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an apple store is in order.

  • I copied all of my CD's onto my iMac's hard drive. Now I'd like to buy a new iMac and am wondering how to transfer the music I have loaded on  my iMac from CD's on to my new computer w/o  going through the process of loading them into my iTunes Library.

    I have copied all of my CD's, probably over 100, on to my iMac, through iTunes and now am considering buying a new iMac. Would like to be able to transfer what's in my music library w/o having to recopy all of the CD's. Any thoughts? Can I do it throught the iCloud or do I need to buy and external storage device?
    Thanks Brenda

    When you buy your new iMac you will be able to have the installation process transfer all your applications, data (including music, pictures, documents, etc) and settings to your new computer. In the past that was done via Firewire. I'm not entirely sure of the process with the new iMacs that don't have firewire. I think it can be done via ethernet and probably via tha thunderbolt cord using a firewire adapter but you'll want to check that out.
        With the your new computer properly connected to your old computer, the initial booting of the new computer will include the ability to move everything over.
        If for some reason you don't want to do that (smart if you have some horrible software issue that is causing problems) you can connect your old computer to the new one and start it in Target Disk mode where it will be seen as a hard drive. You can then manually copy over all your music and import that into iTunes (and any other data you want).
        Somebody here will surely point you to directions for connecting an older iMac with no Thunderbolt to a newer iMac with no Firewire.

  • Is it possible to replace masters with versions without going through the process of exporting and importing?

    Is it possible to overwrite the master files with the versions without having to go through the entire process of exporting and importing back the images?
    Thnx in advance

    A small refinement if you shoot RAW. Remember, no RAW file can ever be edited or rewritten. Thus, in the old days, the flow was:
    RAW>TIFF/PSD and you ended up with two large files. (This is why some folks used to delete the RAW Masters.)
    With Aperture the flow is something like:
    RAW+Version(s) Only the Version is only 30 KB. (There is, of course, additional overhead of Thumbs and Previews, but, depending on your settings, this is only a fraction of the size of a TIFF or PSD.)
    You question goes right to the heart of the concept of a non-destructive workflow. With Aperture you always preserve your original Master file; the only things that are ever at risk are your edits (called Adjustments). Ironically, this is even more valuable if you shoot JPEG or TIFF as those files could be rewritten.)
    Aperture goes to great lengths to give you the best of both worlds; you always have the Master to revert to and your "edits" take up very little disk space. And you don't have to waste time trying to sync folders of RAW, TIFF, and JPEG. Similarly, you never have to worry about resizing images, changing color spaces, or any number of other things that get locked into an image file when you use a destructive workflow.
    Remember, Aperture will happily Export files in any format you may need. Export 'em, use 'em, delete 'em - your Masters are still safe in Aperture.

  • When I try to hibernate my computer, it goes through the process of shutting down but immediatly restarts. could this be caused by the browser?

    I am running windows 7 on a dell laptop xps 17. This has only started happening recently and the only thing that has been changed on my computer is the update for firefox. At the moment, it will sometimes hibernate when I shut the lid, however, on at least one occasion I could not get it to work, and had to shut the computer down, instead. I don't know what else you might need to know. Please contact me if you need more information or if this is not a browser problem, so that I can look elsewhere for the answer.

    I think so...I've been doing some experimenting...the first time this happened, I thought that it was just a glitch in something. After I shut down the computer completely, it doesn't do it...a day or so ago, there was an update applied by firefox and it seemed that it started doing it again after that. However, this doesn't make sense to me. I shut the computer down a while ago and now it is hibernating fine again. I tried shutting it down after I logged on and it worked fine. I've opened firefox and it is still working fine. I've also opened my outlook and it doesn't appear to be causing it. I believe that something I am opening might be doing this even though the program itself is shut down, although I have no idea how unless the computer believes it is still on. The only other program I run, is MSWord and MSN messenger, which is open now and I can still hibernate. I figured that the this was a long shot but thought I would ask. So I think the answer to your question is yes, it happens even when I don't have firefox open. I've shut everything down and tried to hibernate it and it won't do it once this starts happening. I'm completely out of ideas.

  • After going through the process for an upgrade, we completely lost Mozilla. We get a message saying that we don't have permissions. How can I get the previous version back on my computer?

    My husband received a message saying that there was an upgrade for FF Mozilla, so he proceeded to upgrade. After doing so he received a message saying we didn't have permissions. I took the laptop to the Geeks at Best Buy and was told that it was a software issue. We just want to get back to our previous version but can't do that either.

    Do a clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I have tried loading 3 different cds that I just bought into Itunes and I click the import cd button and it goes through the motions of importing the cds, but when I go to my library none of these cds is there.  Help, please!

    I have tried loading 3 different cds that I recently purchased into Itunes.  I click the import cd button and Itunes goes through the motion of copying and importing the cds, but the songs are not in my music library.  I have searched everywhere to find where these cds might be, but to no avail.  Could really use some help here.  Never used to have this problem.

    Are they in the relevant artist & album folders when you look via Windows Explorer. If so something may have gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem.
    If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

  • It says it needs to be connected to itunes and restored.  when i do that, it goes through the whole process then comes up with "iphone could not be restored. unknown error code (-1)".  Please help

    My brother gave me his old iphone when the touch screen went out on mine.  It's in great shape but when I received it, it says that it needs to be connected to itunes to be restored.  I have done this and it goes through the whole process then says iphone "iphone" could not be restored.  unknown error code (-1).  There is not a -1 code on the list and I have tried most of the suggestions.
    Does my sim card need to be in when I am doing this?  And any other suggestions?

  • My iphone 4 is telling me I have to restore but when I plug in and connect to itunes, it freezes about 30-50 % through the process. Now I can't use my phone at all? I am waiting about 1-3 hours for this process to finish and nothing ever happens. HELP!!

    My iphone 4 is telling me I have to restore but when I plug in and connect to itunes, it freezes about 30-50 % through the process. Now I can't use my phone at all? I am waiting about 1-3 hours for this process to finish and nothing ever happens. HELP!!

    Put it into DFU mode - hold the sleep/wake button and home button until the screen goes black (ignoring the slide to turn off slider). When the screen goes black release the sleep/wake button but hold the home button. Continue holding the home button for 10 seconds, then release it. The screen should stay black. Plug it into iTunes and it should come up with this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. It must be restored before use", that's when it is successfully in DFU mode. Now press the restore button in iTunes and it should run smoothly :)
