i just bought a new laptop running on vista premium. I installed itunes and put all my music which is on my external hard drive into the library and it was fine.

Now everytime i open itunes it stops responding after a few minutes, even if i stop the 'determing gapless information' which i initially thought was the problem.

Its really annoying as i need it to sync with my ipod.I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, but it didnt help!

Also the music in library is not saved as read only files, i checked, but i cant edit any of the track information, its all greyed out!

if anyone has ny ideas as to what the problem might be and how i can fix it i would be really greatful! Thanks for your help!

Try re-installing, or installing QuickTime.

I know it may sound strange but it has worked for others. See this thread > http://www.thecomputerforums.co.uk/f...ng-vista-5974/
