ITunes :: Crashing When Accessed From IPad Via Remote App
Apr 28, 2012
I'm having an issue where iTunes on my iMac crashes regularly when being accessed via the Remote app on my iPad.
I use the Remote app to control iTunes running on my iMac upstairs, and stream the music to my AppleTV downstairs. Lately, I'll launch the Remote app, it will start to display my iTunes library or what's currently playing, and then lose the connection to iTunes. When I go to my iMac, iTunes has crashed.
This seems to be random, or at least I can't see any pattern. It doesn't happen every time I launch the Remote app, but it does happen regularly now, and sometimes several times in a row.
I don't have a problem with iTunes crashing under any other circumstance. It seems like an iTunes bug. iMac running 10.7.3 iPad with iOS 5.1 iTunes version 10.6.1 Apple TV 2 with latest software Latest version of the Remote app

My wife and I both share our iMac, and for ease of use we both have seperate profiles set up. This works great with programs like iMail, however, I have not figured out how to share the iTunes library across both profiles. If it helps, I do have an airport extreme with external hard drive..

I want to know if this is possible and, if so, how to do it.
Currently, my iMac's HD is overloaded by my 220GB collection (mostly podcasts).
My idea is to have the iTunes collection on an external hard disk (e.g. a Western Digital Passport 320GB).
When connected to the iMac, iTunes on the iMac reads the MP3's from the external disk.
Then, when I'm on the road with my MacBookPro, the MBP's iTunes would read from the same external hard disk.
A problem could be how to make the second MBP recognize any updates to the iTunes list that has changed when used with the iMac since the last hookup.

I have the Australin app called Ninenewsbreak and the app works well on my iphone4 BUT the sound won't work on my iPad.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled it 3 times and still no sound. This app is for the iPhone and iPad according to the advert in the app store. The sound works great on the iPad for other apps downloaded.

I've been syncing my devices for years, but after I updated to iTunes 10.6 then attempted to sync my iPhone 4, iTunes aborts and does not complete the sync. I tried my iPad as well with exactly the same results. So, I expect that something has begun corrupted in iTunes and I tried to revert to the previous version of iTunes with Time machine, but the Mac reported that I cannot remove iTunes.It could be a library that is corrupt or a cache of some sort, but I can't tell.

Airport is turned on my default and I think that is totally unsafe. I didn't use a strong password when I first got my Mac, and that part is my fault. But what is to keep someone from accessing my computer wirelessly through Airport when it was turned on and I had that weak password? And even if a person didn't want to access my computer, if their computer was infected with malware or whatever, what would keep an automated program from guessing the password and connecting to my computer or anyone else's?

I have both Macbook Pro and MacMini (and a couple of PCs). MacMini has multiple external HDDs attached to it, and it is serving as our home server. Since the server needs to be accessed by both Mac and PCs, I've set up the sharing through SMB.
Recently, I bought LinkSys Dualband N Router (320N), and was hoping to get the maximum transfer speed, but it's not so easy to archive around 12-13MB/s speed over my home network.
Scenario 1 (MBP - Wireless N / MacMini - Gigabit Ethernet)
Data on MacMini's external HDD: max 5-6MB/s (bad)
Data on MacMini's own HDD: max 13MB/s (very good)
Scenario 2 (MBP - Wireless N / MacMini - also on Wireless N)
Data on MacMini's external HDD: max 2.5MB/s (extremely bad)
Data on MacMini's own HDD: max 5MB/s (bad)
Question 1: what can I do to pull 13MB/s from MacMini's external HDDs? They are connected via USB 2.0 or Firewire, so the connection itself shouldn't be a problem.
Question 2: why is it that when both are on the same wireless N (5Ghz) the speed decreases by 3 folds? When I look at the network monitor, MBP is at 300Mbps and MacMini is at 270Mbps.
Can anybody help me with these? I searched all over but couldn't find any solution that I was looking for.

I just got a 27" iMac and love the remote app on my iPod touch but my girlfriend changes the songs constantly while I am on the computer and iTunes pops up every time she changes the song. Is there any way to change this so that iTunes doesn't pop up when she changes the song using her iPod or iPhone?

The following error message just popped up: "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Robert's Office iMac (2).sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1)." I'm running a late 2009 iMac; upgraded to Lion about a week ago. It seems to have done the Time Machine backups fine for the last week.The only other recent change was to reset my iCloud account so I could sync with my iPhone.

First the specs from "About this Mac":
MacBook Pro "13-inch, Late 2011", 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 // RAM= 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Mac OS X 10.9.4 "Mavericks" (13E28)
The problem:
None of my USB Flash drives are accessible in Finder.
The drives do technically "Mount" properly - they show up in Disk Utility, with the "Unmount" & "Eject" buttons available (indicating it's mounted), and they're mounted to the path /Volumes/<Disk Name>. Also, the disks show up in the Finder Sidebar with the correct name etc.
However, If I click on the Finder icon for the drive, the window flashes white for a millisecond and then reverts back to whatever the window showed before (eg. my home folder's contents). Finder will not access them. This has occurred on 3 different USB Flash drives (all of the ones I own!), which are formatted for ye olde windoze, FAT16 or FAT32 (aka. MS-DOS).
The drives operate perfectly normally on an iMac running OS X 10.8.5 (accessible in Finder). I was able to copy files to/from & list the contents of the Flash drives normally.
In Disk Util. I can Unmount & re-mount without error. If I unplug the disk I get the expected "This disk was not unmounted properly" banner. Eject via DiskUtil appears to work properly without error, causing the disk to vanish from Disk Utility (as expected).
The directory /Volumes does not show the drive's directory (just "Macintosh HD") - in fact the first time I list /Volumes/ after plugging in a drive, it appears to show some folder in /Volumes that is quickly removed (kind of scrolls-up into itself) as soon as the /Volumes directory is listed - was it my drive playing hide-and-seek??
The Eject button / option (in right-click menu) is not available in the Finder.
If I use Finder > Go To Folder… and type in the "Mount Point" from Disk Utility, I get a "folder not found" error.
In DiskUtil, if I right-click the drive name and select Reveal In Finder…, strangely the folder will actually show up in /Volumes, and I can open the folder and view the drive contents (sometimes I have to Reveal it twice for it to work)! I was also able to create a new folder after this (which did show up on the iMac as well). However, if I tried to copy and files to the Flash drive, I get either
The operation can’t be completed because one or more required items can’t be found. (Error code -43)
(when I try to drag a file into the newly created folder on the Flash drive), or
The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8058).
(if I drop a file on the Flash drive's root directory, or try to copy a file form the Flash drive to my computer).
I have tried DiskUtil/"Repair Disk" on the flash drives, which doesn't show any errors or warnings (they appear to be ok - again they work fine on another Mac).
I also did a "Repair Permissions" on my MacBook, to no avail.
I seem to remember having this same problem on OS X 10.8 at some point last year, and think I solved it via an online hint, but I have yet to re-find that solution (I'm on OS 10.9 now).

Recently I appear to have lost my external hard drive for my mac, where I kept my backups of my entire computer. In trying to find when I lost it, I'm trying to figure out when the last time I plugged it into my computer was - although my computer says that it's been 147 days or so since my last backup, I know I plugged the hard drive in since then (it just never fully backed up.)
Is there any place on the computer that has a date-by-date history of all the drives accessed/plugged into the computer? There is a risk that my identity has been stolen, if indeed I lost the hard drive long enough ago that someone has their hands on it and the sensitive backups inside it.

I am looking for a remote control, mostly to control itunes running on my mba from anywhere in the room. I saw that apple had a remote, but is IR based, and Belkin offered on in the Apple store, but it uses up the one free USB port (not ideal).

I have plugged a Windows XP notebook into my home stereo, installed iTunes on it and have it streaming music from my other Windows XP box upstairs. Everything works perfectly. What I'd like is a suggestion on a make/model remote control (you know, like the tv remote you use every day) that will allow me to do simple operations in iTunes like Next Song, Back, etc.
I have the Apple Mac Mini remote control but it, by default, will not talk to my Windows hardware because there is no Infrared Port (as far as I know). It's not the easiest thing to google. I would assume I could find a Remote Control package that includes the Remote, an Infrared Receiver (that plugs in via USB), and some baseline software for under $30 somewhere.
It needs to be a USB port because I do not have an RS232 jack on my laptop (Dell Mini9). On a side note, I have to say, this setup I created is THE BEST way to stream iTunes music down to my stereo. I have tried numerous products for the past 10 years ranging from Tivo to Logitech's Squeezebox2 and nothing compares to simply 2 computers sharing iTunes. I got the Dell Mini9 for $302 to my door!

I have my iPhone's Remote app 'paired' to my iMac's iTunes but recently, when I try connecting the remote to iTunes it just doesn't connect. There's the message that reads "Connecting to George's iTunes..." and the spinning gear but nothing.
I control my home music this way and when this happens the only way to fix it is to quit iTunes and relaunch it but, obviously, isn't something I want to do (as I don't want to stop the music being played).

I'm looking for a system that can track about 50 MBP's providing both remote wipe as part of an overall security protocol, and also remote screen/desktop for admin purposes. I looked at preyproject.com but it looks like they only do remote wiping/tracking. that I don't want something locked to a single user, it should be centrally managed.

I've been slowly but surely figuring out the FCE program. About 3 months ago I editied a video, exported it and when I clicked on the .MOV file it automatically converted it to a QuickTime compatible file, which I was then able to save and upload to YouTube with no issues. I have not updated or changed any settings or anything on my computer since then and now when I export a video it shows up as an .MOV file that QuickTime can't access. Also, when I click on the "more info" button, it sends me to a link with a list of compatible formats and at the very top of the list is .MOV! I really don't know what to do now.
I just want to be able to view the video I edited and post it to YouTube.

I have a PC connected to a 5.1 channel 1000W Speaker system, and I know there are options for remote speakers in iTunes, is there a way to set it up so I can select songs on my MacBook's iTunes, and have the sound come through the PC's Speaker System, even a third party program or whatever?

I'm using Remote on my iPhone 3G to control music from a iMac. After an upgrade to version 2.X of the app, it performs very slow. Loading the library or controlling it can take more than 30 seconds! The previous version 1.X did very well with iPhone 3G. I would like to go back to version 1.X but have no backup of the previous version of the app. In my opinion, this updates should not support or be applied to older hardware, it become so slow that it makes no sense to use the app anymore. update a version that can work fine with iPhone 3G or make version 1.X available in the iTunes Store. Im not updating my apps anymore, because each time I do so, the phone lags more than before.
