Seemingly randomly my system hangs on me... the mouse still moves around (and its just an arrow, no spinning beach ball or anything) but I can't click or do anything. The current song will keep playing but skip on me - it will play maybe 5 seconds of music, pause for about 30 seconds, play another 5 seconds.. etc. I have all my MP3s stored on a separate hard drive so at first I thought maybe it was disk problems, but I also have a number of video files on the drive and never have any problems accessing those. The SMART statuts for the drive says its ok and everything checked out with Drive 10 so I'm guessing its iTunes related and not disk i/o. It happens mainly when I'm listening to music, but has happened once when I was ripping a CD, and once when I was exiting iTunes. I've never had any hangs/crashes otherwise, it only happens when iTunes is running, and its seemingly random. It might happen with a particular album, then I can reboot and listen to the same album and its fine.. so it doesnt appear to be related to specific files either. Just wondering if anybody has any ideas, I like listening to music while I'm working but can't now because it makes my system stability unpredictable and I don't want to lose my work.
I'm running 10.3.2 on a DP 867 mirror drive door with 768 ram. Running iTunes 4.2 (72) (I think 72 is the build number maybe? Thats what it says in the about dialog..)
