I could use some help here. Spent the last 3 hours downloading a few apps and iTunes has been "processing file" for close to 30 mins now. I can't pause or restart the download. Any quick fix here? I'm leery of quitting iTunes and downloading again ... don't have a very fast connection here.

Cheers - eV
 
Possible cause and solution

Go to folder "downloads" in iTunes music folder which is the temporary downloads folder for Tunes itself.
If there is any item within (as a leftover from a former download), delete it.
Delay gone.

I saw this elsewhere and it is not correct as a fix for this problem. I too am having the same problem after upgrading Apps.
 
ive been on processing for 20 hours now.

my digital copy 'extras' of harry potter and the goblet of fire is stuck @ 100%

ive tried restarting itunes, uninstalling itunes and nothing.
it just comes back up and sits there.

to make matters worse i cant even download a disney digital copy off of a disc......itunes wont start the download even though i have to download multiple things at once checked.
