Hi there,
Hope someone can help with this problem as I am at the end of my tether with it and my iTunes has been rendered next to useless.
The problem began a week or so ago and predominantly arises when I select a track and try to access its metadata to make changes - either through right mouse click or CMD + I. Four times out of five I get a spinning beachball straight away and that spins typically for around 15 minutes before the dialog box opens. Sometimes it can be less and sometimes more (as long as half an hour) but 15 mins is about the average.
So when the box opens I'll make the change, click Done and same again for the same time. My Force Quite dialogue tells me iTunes is not responding and the first half a dozen times I thought the thing had locked up for good and performed a Force Quit. Then i let it rumble on to get the timings above.
Playing tracks themselves is mostly fine although I have had the very occasional replication of the above behaviour doing that and also just by highlighting three tracks on a playlist. It's not a low hard drive space issue and I have turned off wi-fi sync. I have tried reinstalling iTunes but that made no difference.
I have a mid 2010 iMac 27" 3.2gb with Yosemite and the latest version of iTunes. Any help here would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Craig
