How to run iTune faster
iTunes
I feel iTunes is the single slowest application on some PC’s. However, there are few ways to goose iTunes, to make it a little less pokey than usual. I’m not promising a dramatic speed increase, just somewhat more efficient operation.
First, turn off Genius by clicking Store, Turn Off Genius but that will delete all collected Genius data. It’s a neat feature, but this has been noticed that it seems awfully “busy” at times. Anything that’s demanding iTunes’ attention is also hurting its performance. I never thought it was that smart, anyway.
Second, click Edit, go on Preferences, Sharing, and then disable Look for shared libraries & Share my library on the local network. Whenever there’s ongoing network activity, you can count on a performance hit. Of course, if you are sharing your iTunes library, skip this step.
Finally, switch over to the Apple TV tab & disable Look for Apple TVs. It’s another case of superfluous network activity that can only hurt performance.
I’m sure Apple would do some fine-tuning in this regard.
