Title: O/T - iTunes problem... Post by: winkie on August 03, 2006, 10:58:48 AM Has anyone else had a problem with iTunes shutting down their PC?
Whilst importing a CD to iTunes, my computer shuts itself down without warning. This happens everytime I attempt to import to iTunes. Any ideas what the problem is...? Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem... Post by: ifm on August 03, 2006, 11:12:24 AM Have you updated it recently?
Could be any number of things mate, you are probably better off trying some of the third party software out there, just google for ipod software, i don't have a link anymore but i'll have a look later.

I've got the latest version of iTunes... Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem... Post by: ifm on August 03, 2006, 12:22:04 PM 1) Go to Start>Control Panel>Add or remove programs. Uninstall iTunes and QuickTime (in that order). Restart the computer.
2) Go to www.apple.com/itunes. Download the latest version of iTunes (which also includes the latest version of QuickTime). Install and restart. 3) Check things out and report back with the results. Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem... Post by: winkie on August 03, 2006, 02:11:07 PM Thanks ifm...
I'm not at home at the moment, but if I uninstall and then download again, I'll loose all the tracks I've currently stored...? Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem...

No mate, it won't effect your download directory. Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem... Post by: winkie on August 03, 2006, 02:19:51 PM I haven't downloaded any tracks, only imported them from CD's.
I could re-import them after I've uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes, but I'd be happier if I could avoid doing this... Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem...

EphPod has also been handy in the past http://www.ephpod.com/ (http://www.ephpod.com/) Title: Re: O/T - iTunes problem...

I call it the download directory but i mean the directory containing your tracks. |
